There was a cutting affray on “mill hill” Saturday in which Mr. K. Brown and a seventeen-year-old boy by the name of Dudley Sowers vere the participants. The particulars as given to us are as follows: Saturday afternoon in Mr. Brown’s yard Sowers and a son of Mr. Brown got into a discussion about a bow and airow. Young Brown’s father happened along at the time and told Sowers to leave bis boy alone and get out of his yard. Sowers then grabbed the elder Brown, threw him down and cut him seven times with a knife, the wounds be ing inflicted in the head. Sowers was arrested by the police Saturday night and locked up. Later on, be got out on bond, and when the case was called in the mayor’s court yes terday morning Sowers was not on hand, he having forfeited his bond and migrated to parts unknown to those who “wanted” him. Mr. Brown’s condition is not con sidered serious, though he is confined to his home. Mlxalonary Birthday Party. The “Bessie Crocker Memorial” Sunbeams of the Cherplcee Avenue church spent no Saturday the 12th, from 4 to 6 o’clock, a very pleasant time at the home of Prof, and Mrs. F. E. Shuford. The party was given in honor of little Bessie Crocker’s third birthday, in which about 70 lit tle children took part. Each child dropped into a little box at the door three cents. In this way quite a handsome little sum was raised for foreign missions For more than two hours the children played games, and enjoyed themselves inmany ways. Ju<t befor leaving ice cream and cake were served on the pc arch. All wett home delighted with the occasion. . Department. Mayor’s Court. There was only one case in the mayor’s court. One, Anna Ross, a dusky damsel from beyond the Broad, imbibed too much of the chemically pure Saturday night, which caused her to become guilty of conduct unbecoming one of her sex. She was promptly taken up and put away till yesterday morning, when she ap peared before the city’s tribunal to give the whys and wherefores of her deviation from the paths of rectitude. After bearing her “tale of woe” his honor requested her to contribute something to the city treasury for the privilege she had enjoyed of ca vortin’ around on the streets of the town and making a nuisance of herself to the annoyance of oeaceful citizens. Anna acceded to the re quest, “cashed up” and went on her way—if not rejoicing, at least nothing jvorso than a probable headache co cast a damper over her bouyant spirits. __ No Prayenneetlng. There will be no prayermeeting at the First Baptist church tomorrow (Wednesday) night, on account of the series of meetings now being conduc- ! ted at the Presbyterian church. (Satisfaction. It is always a source of satisfaction to know of a remedy that can always be relied on in emergencies and when accidents occur; such a remedy is Elliott's Emulsified Oil Liniment. It is the most serviceable accident and emergency liniment ever produced, and is just as satisfactory in all cases where a liniment is required. Gaffney Drug Co. Do you need a good hair brush?

The Dixie Clothing and Shoe Store. v, The Dixie Sells it for Less. Morris Switzer, Proprietor. Freah Flour all tt>« Time. The celebrated “Clifton” flour is sold only to the retail merchants and, as they buy in small quantities, the flour is always fresh. Bransford's “Clifton” is strictly the flour for family use, and if your bread, cake and pastry are not made of it you are certainly the loser. We keep it in stock regularly W. J. Wilkins & Co.

Every thing will be in readiness about September 21st.
