countv physician. Rodger had two
more uours to live, but he declared

Will Thompson, a son of Judge of
Probate 0. G. Thompson, of Laurens,
met with an accident on Saturday
afternoon which is remarkable in
that it was attended by uo serious j
results. In some way he contrived
to step off the dam at Ware Shoals,
in Laurens county where the cotton
mill is going up, and fell thirty feet. :
It is understood that he was not se
riously injured.
A negro, Joe Worthington, was ta
ken to Greenville Saturday morning
and committed to jail, charged with
rocking a train near Winterville
Tuesday night, when William Rich
ardson, of Selma, was struck. The
case waa worked up by detectives.
After reaching tbe jail, the negro con
fessed to throwing an iron tap at the
train, and made a statement impli
cating two other parties. Other ar
rests may follow.
A human hand, severed from the
arm at the wrists was a grewsorne ob
ject which tbe postmistress at Cen
tral drew from a neatly wrapped box
which was sent her some time ago.
As soon as she caught, sight of the
“present” the woman fainted. The
hand bad been wrapped in a dainty
covering and there was nothing about
the box to indicate its contents The
matter had been kept quiet, as the
postal authorities were world tig on
the case. No clew as to the sender
has been found, and the affair has
just been made public.
P. D. McDaniel,a young white man,
was almost instantly killed al the
Tucapau Mills at about 1 o’clock Fri
day as tbe result of an accident to
the engine. Mr. McDaniel was stand
ing or passing near the engine, which
was in operation, when the cylinder
head blew out inflicting injuries
about his bead and face that caused
his death in about five minutes. The
deceased was a young man of about
30 years of age. He is survived by
a wife but no children. He former
ly resided at Bryson City. N. C.,
where his parents, who survive him,
now live.
Judge C. H. Simonton, of the
United States Circuit Court, Tuesday
made an order at Richmond, Va.,
placing the plant of the Olympia Cot
ton Mills Company, at Columbia, in
the hands of a receiver. W. A. Clark,
president of the Carolina National
Bank, of Columbia, and Allen J.
Green were named as receivers, and
it was stated in tbe order that the
operation of the plant should be con
tinued without interruption. While
tbe figures are not given with author
ity, it may be stated that the liabiU
ities of tbe mill are said to be |1,500-
000, and the assets over $2,000,000.
Two CarloadH of Texas Cows Arrlqe in Gaff
ney for Mr. Walker.
Sixty Aberdeen Angus heifers ar
rived in the city Sunday night from
Channing, Texas. They were shipped
to Mr. Wm. R. Walker and have h«en
carried to his stock farm in the Lawn
part of the county. The Angus breed
of cattle are beef cattle and it is said
that they grow to an enormous size.
With the last shipment Mr. Walker
now has about one hundred head of
Angus cattle. He has had some of
these cattle on his farm for some
time and his success with them in
duced him to add this last shipment
to his herd. They are a great success
as meat makers but their most ardent
admirers make no claims for them as
milkers, but state that they do not
give more than enough co raise their
calves, which are allowed to run with
their mothers from birth till weaned.
Cherokee is to be congratulated on
having this big cattle enterprise lo
cated in her borders and is certainly
under obligation to Mr. Walker for
it. He is a thorough business man
and never fails to make money in any
business venture that he makes.
This assures Cherokee of a big cattle
farm that will be methodically, and
hence successfully managed.
We wish Mr, Walker in his cattle
venture the success that he deserves.
Dwuth at lllncksburi;.
A communication from Blacks
burg, of lltb inst., says: "This
morning about 6 o’jcloek, Mr. Wil
liam Whisonant, an aged and highly
respected citizen of our town, breath
ed his last. He was born on King’s
Creek in old York on the 20th of Sep
tember, 1820, and has lived near the
place of bis birth all of his life. He
was an industrious and successful
farmer and business mini, and enjoyed
the esteem of bis feilowmen to a very
great extent. During tbe past several
years he has been in feeble health
and suffered much from bodily infirm
ity, but bore bis afflictions with re
markable fortitude and patience. His
Bible was his constant companion
and his religious convictions were
sincere and wall grounded. His
mind was clear to tbe last, and he
was resigned and willing to die, so
that h ; could be at rest forever with
his Lo d and Master.”
A Five-Years Lease.
Mr. j• C. Lipscomb has just closed
a deal for the lease of the Commer
cial Hotel for five years. A large
addition is to be erected on the lot
adjoining the building, op the upper
side; the dining-room is to be moved
down stairs and alt modern improve
ments and conveniences made
throughout the entire hotel building.
Gaffney can then boast of one of the
finest hotels that can he found in any
town twice her size, and under Mr.
Lipscomb’s able management it is
bound to have a reputation in keeping
with its environments.

Safeguard Against Accident.
The best safeguard against accident
is to use good judgment in directing
every act. But, accidents will often
occur in spite of every effort to pre
vent them. The best safeguard
against injury resulting from acci-
deuts is Elliott’s Emulsified Oil Lini
ment. It is the most serviceable
accident and Emergency Liniment
ever made and is the most satisfac
tory .Liniment for use in the family
and on animals ever offered. Large

Etta Jane, Nov. 14—As an occi-
sional and weak contributor to that
work we highly appreciate all The
Ledger says about the Yorkville
Enquirer giving biographical sketches
and pictures of many of its citizens
who have attained the age of eighty
years and over. Nobody knows what
it takes to make a newspaper useful
and popular better than does Mr. Ed.
H. DeCamp, and that is exactly what
tbe Grist Brothers are doing with the
Enquirer.
In last Tuesday's issue the En
quirer gives a picture and sketch of
Mr. John Lowrie Bolin, aged eighty-
two years. We have known Mr.
Bolin all our life, as a quiet, unosten
tatious citizau. He belongs to a
family noted for its longevity. Borne
of whom in our day have passed
their 100th milestone.
Lowrie, tor a long time, was one of
the leading men of that section,
known as ‘’The Nation” or ‘‘Blue
W’a&er.” In elections his influence
was sought for by candidates wanting
office. What love couldn’t accomp
lish liquor could. Rum would often
succeed when reason failed.
The Bolin family were noted for
their courage—they sprung from
Revolutionary ancestry. Many of
their descendants are now living at
tbe cotton mills in Cherokee county
and others are among its farming and
other industrial classes.
In ante-bellum days when free
liquor aud free fights were common,
tbe test of pluck or physical manhood
was a common pastime. For a man
in those days and among those peo
ple to carry a low down cowardly
grudge until he got the advantage of
his adversary or until he got in
liquor before be could bring it to an
issue was looked upon as an arrant
coward. Sticks, rocks, fists and feet
were the only weapons used in set
tling old scores or new difficulties.
Wheu tbe war came on, some of them
were amoug the first to go to the
front and there they remained until
the flag was forever furled at Appro-
mattox aud, Greensboro. No section
of the country left a greater per cent,
of its men upon the battlefield than
did York county and ,on whom were
no fewer records bestowed for their
gallamry.
The grand old county of York has
given to the new county of Cherokee
a terriotory and people of whom we
are justly proud. They are, many ol
them, the men or descendants of the
men of whom we speak.
Here’s a question that has gone
the rounds of nearly all tbe news
papers in the country and we have
never seen it answered yet. Some say
it has no answer; but that won’t do
Here it is:
“Mary is 24 years old. Mary is
twice as old as Ann was when Mary
was as old as Ann is now. How old
is Ann?”
We say that Ann is now 24 yeais
old. What say some of our readers?
If we had as little confidence in
our Maker and the majority of man
kind as some people express by their
actions, we would be afraid to go to
sleep. This unfortunate (not to say
inexcusable) weakness has been a
source of great misery to mankind in
all ages of the world.
Psychology has long since estab
lished the fact that we see in others
our own image—just what we see in
them we are ourselves. If we think
everybody dishonest and untruthful,
that’s our own failings. If we think |
they are trying to "take advantage of
us its a good sign that we would do t he
same for them if we had the oppor
tunity. Of course, when we know
people to be dishonest or untruthful, |
these are exceptions,but by no means
is it tbe rule.
Yesterday Mr. Vaney C. Comer
and Mrs. J. Farrow Wright were call
ed to the bedside of their mother,
Mrs. Avis Comer, who is lying very
low at her home near Keiton.
Last Thursday a very sad accident
occurred at Mr. Emmett Wylie’s cot
ton gin near Hopewell. A colored
boy aged twelve or fourteen years, a
sou of M att Cousar, was caught is
tbe belting and tom to pieces. Hie
body fell in ooe place aod an arm in
another. He died Id a short time.
It’s a^wonder a great naany more
such accidents don’t take place.
No blame uan be attached to Mr.
Wylie or any of bis hands at tbe gin.
Mr. Wylie ran tbe boy off from where
be was fooling with the machinery
by throwing gravel on tbe belt while
tbe machinery was in operation.
Tbe boy caused bis own death.

Yesterday Brown Rodgers was to
pay the death penalty at Union for
killing Rodgers Fant. We have no
comment to make upon the action of
the court in convicting him of mur
der. The ready pistol and the care
less handling of firearms is too com
mon in this country any how, for the
safety of law-abiding people, and the
courts can’t be too particular in in
quiring into and punishing offenders
against tbe law. Here is what the
intelligent Union correspondent
writes to the News and Courier about
this murder case:
“Governor Heyward has declined
to interfere in behalf of Brown Rod
gers, colored, who was convicted at
the June term of the Court of Gener
al Sessions for this county of the
murder of Rodgers Fant, white, and
who after being sentenced to be
hanged, gave notice of appeal; after
wards abandoned his appeal and was
again sentenced to be hanged during
the October term of court. The exe
cution is set for Friday next and
nothing can now prevent its being
carried out.
“At the same term of court at
which Rodgers was convicted a white
man was also tried for murder, and a
strong case, stronger, perhaps, than
the one made out against this negro,
was made against him, yet his neck
was saved by a recommendation to
the mercy of tbe court, which means
imprisonment for life. Some people
thought the white man deserved
hanging as much as the negro.
“From a purely legal point of view
there was doubt in th« minds of some
if any actual malice had been proven
sufficient to make the case againut
Rodgers more than manslaughter,
and these people who signed the pe
tition to the governor, asking that
the sentence be commuted to life
imprisonment, felt that the needs of
justice would be met by such a
course.”
To convict and execute a poor
negro or a trifling white man now and
then while those of a better cloth go
unwhipped of justice doesn’t add
anything to the dignity of our courts.
It settles nothing, on the other hand
it destroys that-respect for law every
good citizen bould cultivate. There
is nc freedom in a country where
high, social or political standing
screens men from the penalties of
their acts.
Dr. Lionel R. Black is getting his
buildings all in proper shape and he
will soon have a telephone in bis
office.
Our magistrate’s court is busy now
and then looking after violators.

Capt. S. S. Ross, at the latter’s tin
mines. They are getting out several
tons of ore per week. There can be
no doubt but that Capt. Ross has
struck a bonanzajin this tin mine and
that it is a very rich find. There
were many who were skeptical, but
later developmonts are removing all
skepticism. Capt. Ross has had
numerous offers to sell at fancy prices

How We Catch a Cold.
A cold is sometimes contracted
while remaining inactive for a while
in an uncomfortable room or a cold
draft and by falling asleep under like
conditions. But most colds are
caught while sleeping too cold at
night. Deep sleep causes sluggish
circulation which renders the system
susceptible to change of temperature.
To prevent colds, sleep under plenty
of cover. To cure colds use Rydales
Elixir, it lessens tbe severity and
shortens tbe duration of a cold and
prevents Pneumonia, Broncbitis and
Consumption. Gaffney Drug Co.
