Sealed Bids.
The Middleton Stock Company Closes—The
Next Attraction.
The Middleton Stock Company
closed a successful three nights en
gagement at the Star Theatre Satur-
das night with a melo drama styled
“John Martin’s Secret.” The acting
was up to the standard of previous
plays presented by that company.
“Rastus ’ convered himself with
glory and convulsed the audience
with laughter.
“The Man From Mexico”, in which
Walter £. Perkins’ company of
comedians will be seen at the Star
Theatre next Saturday night has
bad two seasons of really great suc
cess in the principal cities of the
country. It is from the pen of H.
A. DeSouchet, who also wrote “My
Friend From India,” and has been
accorded by critties and the pub
lic generally, the distinction of being
the funniest comedy of its class and
one of the very few that create laugh
ter without any resort to question
able methods. The story of Ben
jamin Fitzhew’s thirty days sojourn
on Blackwell’s Island, in the garb of
a convict, while he leads his wife to
believe that he is taking a vacation
trip to Mexico, develops a rare fund
of laughable situations and humorous
lines, and the fun begins with the
rising of the curtain and does not
end ,even with the final fall, for
laughter comes involuntarily when
one recalls the escapades of Mr.
Fitzhew. The company is said to be
an excellent one, and all the appoint
ments are in the highest style of
stage art.
The Man from Mexico Company
comes from Charlotte to Gaffney and
goes from here to Greenville. They
only stop in the large cities, but
having this night open they preferred
to stop in Gaffney. The main por
tion of the reserved seats will go at
fifty cents. It is a reall good show
and well worth the price charged.
Gaffney is certainly fortunate in
getting a line of really first-class at
tractions.
I will receive bids from now until the
25tb Inst., for psilntinK the Court house.

Referee Speer Sustained.
The $2000 claim of A. H. Pollock
Money to Loan
against J. D. Jones, surviving partner
of Jones & Duff and individually,
bankrupt secured by a mortgage of
the firm assests and contended for as
a secured claim which should be
paid in full, in preferance to unse
cured creditors was held by G. W.
Speer, refree in bankruptcy, to con
stitute a preference under the bank
rupt law and that the same was void.
N. W. Hardin, attorney for the clai
mant, Pollock, took the case to the
district court, and there with the
assistance of H. J. Hajneswortb ably
argured the case. The claim was
resisted by J. C. Jefferies and Maj. J.
H. Hart of Yorkville, representing
the bankrupt and certain creditors,
and Butler<& Osborne for certain cerdi-
tors. Judge Brawley rendered his
opinion Friday sustaining the referee.
Our First Horseless Currlage.
The first Automobile to appear on
our streets came out Sunday. It
was Mr. H. D. Wheat’s. While Mr
Wheat has had it at bis home for
some weeks, he has not had^it on the
streets before Sunday. It is a mag
nificent machine, and presents a
fine appearance on the road, and Mr.
Wheat seems to be a good manager
of it.
Our fine streets and the good roads
of the county makes this an ideal
place to own one of these modern
roadsters. __
TeU Your Grocer What You Want.
When you order a sack of flour be
certain to tell your grocer to send
you “Clifton,” otherwise you may
get something that costs the grocer
less, but which you buy no cheaper.
And you don’t get as good, pure flour,
either. Always ask for “Clifton”
brand.
