BUTCHERY.
iJ
Inscribed on a rock on the corner of one of the principle streets of Boston are these words, “On'
this spot the first blood of the Revolution was shed.” The red sign that swings over our door is em
blematic of butchery, but the butchery going on within is of an altogether different nature from the
terrible struggle that took place on Bunker’s Hill. Never before in the history of Gaffney has goods
been slaughtered to such an extent as is now being done at THE BATTERY.
Our store is loaded from floor to ceiling with goods of various kinds, and every freight that arrives
brings new additions to our already over-crowded house.
It is no wonder that our store is always crowded with customers, when there is such a terrible
slaughter going on,

Mrx. *1 film K. Crocker Dead.
Mrs. John R. Crocker, of Crocker,
Cleveland county, N. C., died at her
home on Monday evening and her re
mains were brought to this city Tues
day and buried in Oakland cemetery,
in the presence of a number of her
old friends and relatives. The funer
al services were conducted at the
grave by Rev. W. T. Thompson, of
this city. Mrs. Crocker was sixty-
five years old, and joined the Skull
Shoals church in this county in early
life, and has lived a consistent Chris
tian life. She leaves her aged hus
band and five sons and one daughter
to mourn their great loss. Mrs.
Crocker was a woman of worth who
made an impression for good on her
associates during her life and leaves
with them fond recollections of her
which will be cherished while life
lasts.
Limestone Opened Up Wednesday.
A gentle quiet house boy or a scrambling out-door sort?
Never mind, we have clothes for both. The new things in
Boys’ suits and Men’s suits are waiting for you. Don’t al
low yourself to be tempted by the showy stuff that sells so
cheap, it is pretty—wonderful tricks are played with cotton
and Himsy making. But they are tricks.
Every suit in our store is all wool and sturdily as well as
stylishly made ; hardly anyone ever attempted to match our
values given in Boys’ and Men’s suits. Make this store
your headquarters, a souvenir with every purchase.
The 1902 03 session of Limestone
College opened Wednesday with pro
bably the largest number of boarding
pupils present that has been
at any opening in many years, and
every incoming train is bringing more
girls who are being added to this
large number. All the professors
and instructors are at the college and
are busily engaged in arranging
classes.
The prospects of Limestone College
were never better and it has never done
better work than it is doing now. It
has one of the strongest faculties in
the State, every member of which is
enthusiastic in his or her department
and all combined in one homogenious
effort to advance the interests of the
pupils and the usefulness of the col
lege.

Sulphur Itaths st Hume.
Hancock’s Liquid Sulphur baths
are superior to those of the most
celebrated Sulphur Springs, having
the additional advantage of being
made any desired strength. Taking
medicine by absorption into the sys
tem through the skin and by taking
medicated baths, is a very efficient
method of obtaining a constitutional
treatment. It never fails to cure
eczema and all blood and skin disor
ders. For sale by the Cherokee Drug
