Just » Few to Let You Kuow Wlmt is Going On in The Amusement World. The Blackinore Pantograph and Art Co. held the boards at the Star Theatre on Friday and Saturday nights of last week, playing to small bouses. This may have been owing to the fact that the weather was pretty warm and a number of social func tions were in progress. Viewed from an amusement point, this is undoubt edly one of the cleanest, bigh-ciass and most meritorious low priced com- pauies that bas ever visited this sec tion. Mr. Blackmore’s work on the violin is superb, bis imitations being little.short of marvelous; the work of Mr. aod Mrs. Sanders was excellent, albeit they assumed a variety of char acters that are never easy to portray.

The great Barlow Minstrels come on the 17th, they will be followed by "Happy Hooligan” the greatest pro duction of farce comedy daring the season of 1908-4, which comes to the Star Theatre on Sept. 21st with new scenery, elabrate costumes, a number of the cleverest comedians In the business, and a score or more of pretty girls. "Happy Hooligan.” is sure to be a favorite with local theatre-goers and will come pretty near to being the headliner of attractions of the kind which will visit Gaffney this year. There is one ensemble dance and ballet in "Happy Hooligan” which bas cost the management $25,000. The cost has been in real money, too, and not in stage money. In this dance twenty of the mast attractive show girls in the theatrical business are seen m costumes of velvet, (black) which are heavily embroidered and trimed with brilliants. The dance is known as the diamond ballet, and is one of the most beautiful and expen sive features ever introduced In farce or musical comedy.

A revival meeting will be com menced at the Presbyterian church on Sunday,September 20th. Rev. R. G. McLees, of Greenwood, will con duct the meeting. Mr. McLees has just closed a meeting at Easley. The Easley correspondent of the Colum bia State has the following to say concerning Mr. McLees: "Quite an interesting meeting closed last Sunday at the Presby terian church. It was conducted by Rev. R. G. McLees of Greenwood. Increasing interest was manifested even to the day. Mr. McLees is an able and scholarly man, and his discouises are simple, convincing and inspiring. His earnest and eloquent appeals bore fruit in the accession of 14 members to the church.” Orcen-NIcholaon. The home of W. H Hancock was the scene of a happy event Sunday afternoon when Mr. Jesse Green and Miss Eura Nicholson were united in the holy bonds of matrimony. The ceremony was preformed by Judge C. T. Bridges in the presence of a few friends of the happy young couple. The affair was of the Gretna Green order. The young couple are well thought of and have a host of friends in tbeir social circle.
