Mr. K. Brown Receives Severe Gashes In
the Bead From a Knife.
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

cent., and we are now showing one of the pret
tiest lines in town. We want every one who is

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

When we go
over the way
We begin to’anticipate the removal
of our store to our flue new build
ing just across Frederick street
from our present location. Every
thing will be in readiness about
September 21st. Moving a drug
store is no small task, but we look
forward to it with pleasure because
the new store will be fitted up with
the very best fixtures and with
every modern convenience that
helps in expeditious attention to
customers. The store will look
well and be as good as it looks. It
is the direct result of six years
straightforward dealing at the old
stand.
