On the 23rd of this month the can didates for State officers will be here. They will meet a good crowd also and will get respectful attention. A WoteriuKlou Cut ting. The following clipping from the Augusta Ga., Tribune is of interest to and gratifying to Miss Scott’s many friends in Gaffney : “A charming, thoroughly enjoy able and refreshing affair of last evening, was the watermelon cutting with which Mr. and Mrs. 8. F. Ridle- hoover entertained a number of their frieuds at the Inter State Ice plant in honor of Miss 8cott, of Gaffney, 8. C.

We learn that lightning killed a horse and mule near Goucher church yesterday evening belong to Mr. Good man Wilkins.

The Commercial Hotel is the Mecca for young married couples Just as soon as a couple get married they go there, for they all know they have a friend in mine host Hopper.

Aunt Annie Smith, colored, aud her grandson, Claud Bowles, arrived in the city yesterday ( from New York, where she has been visiting her daughter for several mouths. Aunt Annie’s friends are glad to see her home safe. We were pained to bear that Mr. John Smith, of near State Line, lost his house aud all his household goods by fire ou the 7th lost, at II o’clock p. m. Mr Smith is a worthy citizen and can illy afford such a heavy loss. But Mr. Smith lives io a neighbor hood where bis worth and his con dition are known, and where the worthy will never woot. We have not been able to learn the cause of the fire, but suppose it was accident- al. A Dellffhttal Bcccptloa. Capt. E O.

L'ncleJoc Coyle Deed. From a letter received in this office from J. 8. M.

Mr. Coyle was born and raised near Gaffney and has spent most of his life in what is cow Cherokee county He was a member of Company M. Palmetto Sharpshooters io the Con federate army aod did his duty faith fully. He has been in bad health for some years and only went a few weeks ago to visit his son. hoping to be improved, but the messenger came and the old veteran crossed over the river to join the majority of his comrades.

Crop* Almost Denti-oyeri mid Fruit Tree* Dam Aged—Other Item*. New Prospect, July 6. — Last Thursday at 4 :30 p. m. we were vis ited by one of the worst storms we ever saw. Several crops were almost completely destroyed by the hail. One of our neighbors said he wouid take $10 for his crop. Orchards were damaged considerably while gardens and fences were laid flat by the se vere wind; in fact, it was somewhat of a “scary time." We wil! give to anyone who will read the 2 i v-rae of the 117th Psalm without'sbedding a tear, a $10 Wil liam. Gall at The Ledger office and get your mouey. Misses Mayme and Lula Humph ries aod Miss Bernice Jones visited the Misses Evie and Arelia Blackwell Sundav. Mr. K O. Huskey, one of Chero kee’s oright, liberty loviog young men, was in our midst one day last week Mr Huskey numbers one among the forty candidates of Chero kee, aod we are inclined to believe if be is elected he will be the right man in the right place. On the 22ud day of June, at 0:30 o’clock, Mrs. Mollie Jones, wife ot the R v. A. T. Jones, ol North Pacoiet, passed from time into eternity. She was at her death, and had been for a number of years, a member of the North Pacoiet Baptist church. The fuoera) services were couducted by the Rev. Mr. Williams, of Poik coun ty, N. C. She leaves a husband and eight children to mourn her loss. Oui heart beata in sympathy for the bereaved family. "Blessed are the dead that die iu the Lord."

With the exception of the Bible there is no book we enjoy reading more than we do the history of our dear old country, from 1492 ou up to the present time, because io this book we read of such men as Patrick Hen ry, who uttered the grand words, “give me liberty or give me death." Aod as Daniel would have it, liber ty first and union afterwards, as they float over the sea and over the lane aod in ever wind under the whole heavens. Liberty and union now and forever one and inseparable. Second, aod above ail others, we love to reau and study the biography of that mao who stands as the ceotral figure in American history, George WaaDing- loo. The republic, the wide arch of our union, may perisn, may fall, star by star, its glories may ex pire; stone by stone its Columos ana its capitoi may moulder and crumble; all other names which adorn its an- oals may be forgotten, but as long as bumau hearts shall anywnere beat or bumau tongues shall any where plead for a true, rational con stitutional lioerty, tnose hearts shall enshrine the memory, aod those tongues prolong the fame, of George Washington. Since we commenced this letter we were again visited by another severe storm, the worst damage being the school house at North Pacoiet being lifted off of its pillows and almost blown over and the church was also damaged some. The glorious fourth is a thing of the past; it has come and gone, and while we coulu not attend the cele bration at Limestone it did f ot seep our mind from ruuning back to the fourth day of July, 1776 when the great principles of human liberty weie announced. The hall in which congress held its memorable meeting has since been known as Indepen dence Hail. The bell which pro claimed the glad tidings, although its sides are cracked and its voice is busned, is today treasured as me old liberty Dell. a. j j. The Women of Damaeens. The women of Damascus—that is. the MonIimii women—are more closely veil ed than those of Constantinople and other eastern cities because the people here are more tenacious in the observ ance of the ancient customs of their race and the requirements of their re ligion. The veils are thicker, also, aud cover the entire face. Some of them are figured so that the concealment is even more complete. Greeks, Jews and Armenians do not wear veils, and some of them are very handsome, particularly the Jewish wo men. Their eyes, complexion and hair are superb. The types of oriental love liness remind you of Solomon's Song. No women are employed about the hotels or restaurants. All the “domes tic’’ work is done by men. In the shops and manufactories of Damascus thou sands of women and girls are employ ed, but they are exclusively Greeks and Jews. No Moslem would permit his wife, daughter or sister to appear in a shop or any other place where men are em; Joyed.—Chicago Itecord-Herald. If Yon Have to Flirht a Boa. If any reader of this article should ever he so unfortunate as to experi- ence the embrace of a boa constrictor, ft is recommended that lie try to re lease himself by taking hold of the creature’s tail and unwinding it from that end. It can bo easily unwound in that way. but otherwise It is not possi ble. The way to kill a snake is not to attempt to crush Its bead, the bones of which are very hard, hut to strike the tall, where the spinal cord Is but thinly covered by hone and suffers readily from Injury. It Is the same with uu eel. lilt the tall two or three times against any hard substance, and the eel quickly dies. The boas are not venomous, but their fangs are sufficiently powerful to In flict serious wounds. Mill Hill Note*.

Wade Tillotson is still canvassing the bill for a lady clerk. Oh, who will be the lucky one. The mill hill can boast of aa many pretty girls to its size as any mill in the Piedmont belt. As fur the gents it’s the reverse. We are told that Mr. Jesse Maness has heart trouble since he got side tracked. Mrs. Alvin is on the sick list. She hasn’t been off of it for sometime. May the days of The Ledger be many. Alvin. Rock Island To Enter Dallas. Dallas.
