A ^ Made on Real Estate in City of Gaffney and County of Cherokee. Abstracts furnished. HAJL3L, Ac Mr. Martnee Treadling Able and Interest ing Sermons. Large coi gregatione greeted Rev. J. C Massee at the First Baptist church Sunday morning and evening and were well repaid for their trouble. At the morning service a number re- ; i-ponded to t.ie invitation to turn ! from the path of sin and lead better j lives. Several were received into the church. ! At the erening service the building was crowded to its utmost capacity. Mr. Massee chose for his subject the ever interesting theme of love, and his discourse was most creditable. He declared that love was the grand est and most sublime thing that ex isted in all this world, and that Christ was the ablest exponent and the purest embodiment of love that ever existed. It is the instinct of woman to love ; it is her nature. She may be tied down to her idol in clay, and that idol might violate all the instincts of manhood and degrade himself to the utmost and still she would love him. A man might live with out love. He has his business, his work, his pleasures and his sins, but a woman cannot exist without love. With dramatic power and eloquence he recited the impression made upon his mind by a panoramic view of the Passion Play, representing the cruci fixion of Christ, as performed at Ober Amergan, Switzerland, and pointing to the cruel wounds on the Master’s person he declared that no greater love could be expressed towards hu manity than had been expressed by the Savior. Last evening Mr. Massee delivered another of his forceful sermons, his theme being, “The separation that sin causes between a man and bis God.” The sermon was intensely practical and full of helpful lessons. The services will continue during this week at the usual hours, from 4 to 5 in’the afternoon and at 8 at night. Death of Charles KU. Jones. Mr. Charles Ed. Jones, a native of this county, who had lived here all his life, more than half a century, died at his home in the city Saturday morning after an illness of about a week. He was an honest and upright man and was faithful to his trusts, respected by all who knew him, and since the establishment of the State dispensary here, had been a clerk in it, where he was efficient and had given full satisfaction to the begin ning of his last illness. Mr. Jones leaves a wife and three children, one son and two;daugbters,to mourn their loss, who have the sympathy of their many friends. His remains were laid to rest at Providence churohSunday in the pres- en je of many sorrowing lelativea and friends. A short funeral service was con ducted at the grave Dy Hon. W. D. Kirby. Struck by the Train. Saturday afternoon as No. 12 on the Southern was coming into the city, it struck Hamlet Horn at the Fred erick street crossing and broke his right leg in two places between the knee and ankle and inflicted other less serious injuries. He was attend ed by Drs. Nesbitt and Crawley and made as comfortable as possible, and was carried to his home at Cherokee Falls Sunday morning. Hamlet Horn is a convict on the county chain gang and is a “trusty.”He was given permission Saturday afternoon to go to his home and spend Sunday with his family, but instead of apprecia ting this privilege, he abused it. He came to Gaffney, and it is said got drunk, with the result above stated. ATTORNEYS AT LAW, Star Theatre Building. A Youthful Thief. Dick Dunnaway, a negro boy about! twelve years old, who has been work-1 ing about the bouse for Mrs. Stowe, stole twenty dollars from her Saturday. Dick was arrested and ten dollars of the money was recover ed. Yesterday he was before the mayor and was given an option on 1 fifteen dollars, thirty days or, at the suggestion of his family, thirty lash es. His recent financial deeds hav ing made him averse to the further handling of money and not being willing to lose thirty days from his business, at the instance of his friends, he took the lashes. He got them. Siller Jones, one of the lowest and worst specimens of debased negro women that has been in Gaffney, was also before the mayor yesterday on two charges, one for being drunk and disorderly and one for carrying a razor concealed. She was given $15 or thirty days for each offense or was allowed to leave town never to return, the sentence to be enforced if she does. She was escorted to the city limits by Officer Henry Lockhart and we hope she will stay away, but we pity the community she stops in. The KmliuK of Court. The case of Allen vs. Turner was given to the jury Thursday and it staled in the jury room until after night when it came out with a sealed verdict which was read after court, convened Friday. It was for the defendant. After the above case was given the jury Thursday the court took up the case of Willis vs. the Western Union Telegraph Co. It consumed the time of the court till Friday night. At 9 o’clock the judge ordered the jury to be brought into court—it had not agreed and a mistrial was ordered when court adjourned. When the court of general sessions convened Monday morning it began work on a docket that had thirty- seven cases on it and when it adjourn ed Friday night it, had tried THREE and made a mistrial in one! Judge Townsend left for his home Friday night. Local Cotton Market.
