ITEMS OF INTEREST OF PASSING A CHEROKEEAN’S SUCCESS. EVENTS IN SOUTH CAROLINA. Happenings All Over the State Taken from Our Exchanges and Tersely Told to Ledger Readers. Friday while Corley Jacobs and Luther Thompson, white men of Mc- Coll. were playing with a pistol, the weapon was discharged, the ball en tering the left hand of the latter. The wound is a painful but not a se rious one. Mrs. R. L. Bowden died at her home in Spartanburg suddenly Thurs day night about 11:30 o’clock. She hall been sick only a short time and her death was a shock to the commu nity. She was 02 years of age, and wife of Capt. R. L. Bowden, one of the oldest and most successful mer chants in that city. Wednesday night fire was discov ered in the jail at Edgefield. A phy sician was on his way to a late call ami saw the blaze and gave the alarm. The building was saved but Jesse Henderson, a prisoner, was found dead in his cell. The negro had fired the building by the use of a kerosene lamp and lost his own life. A. M. Arnold, a safe-cracker who was arrested in Charleston several months ago for forging money orders on the postoffice at Aiken, and who is supposed to have been a member of the gang which robbed the safe of the Courtenay Manufacturing Compa- — iy at Newry and that of Mr. Horton, * a merchant at Lowndesville, was tried in the United States court at Charleston Wednesday, and con victed and sentenced to two years’ imprisonment. William Roberts jumped off the “Palm Limited’’ as it passed Rock Hill about 12 o’clock Saturday night, and as a result two bones in one of his legs were broken between the knee and the ankle. He was accom panied by a companion, who also Jumped, but he escaped any injury whatever. Roberts was taken to the Jiospital by Dr. Fennel and Mr. Sid ney Freidheim, where the broken limb was set. He was able to return to Chester, his home, Sunday morn ing. Eight of the crew of the United States cruiser Topeka deserted the vessel during their stay of several days at Charleston. Before the de parture of the ship Thursday, the po lice department was notified of the desertions and two of the crew have been arrested. The police are look ing for the rest. The men who were captured declared that they were tired of the life on the sea and they found Charleston such a pleasant place that they decided to quit the vessel. John Sullivan, an employee of N. Sattile, in Charleston, was shot and perhaps fatally wounded by a dis pensary constable Wednesday night. This is the first homicide of the kind in Governor Heyward’s administra tion. When the dispensary law was enacted Charleston thought it was an outrage on the liberty of the citi zens there, and the unwavering moral sentiment against the law has made its enforcement difficult. The bar keepers, denied the right of license, continued in the business in daring and flagrant opposition to the law, just as the moonshiners think the Federal law unjust. A Law and Order League has been formed in Newberry. This or ganization was effected Tuesday night, the orgainzer being Rev. Ver non I. Anson, of Columbia. In the course of his remarks Rev. I. Anson stated that the Law and Order League had originated in Columbia several months aeo. Its name will explain the purp »se of the organiza tion. It is a federation to aid the officers of the law to enforce the law. One reason for the organization in South Carolina was the recent re port of the attorney general, which showed such a vast amount of crime in the State during last year. Mack Ste<»t»*. a young white man who was ejected from a passenger train several months ago between Rock Hill and Fort Mill, has entered suit against the Southern Railway for $5,000 damages. The trial of the case will be heard at the next term of York county. It seems that Steele purchased a ticket at Rock Hill for Fort Mill. The station agent in punching the ticket punched the year 1905 instead of 1904. The conductor thinking there was some irregularity refused to accept the ticket and de manded fare. Steele refused to pay, so he was ejected at Catawba Sta tion, which is about five miles from Fort Mill. A warrant, sworn out before Mag istrate Venning of Mount Pleasant, «* by a brother of M. H. Sullivan, the Postal lineman who was shot by either State Constable Owens or Hudson Thursday night on the Mount Pleasant beach, was served on Sheriff Martin Friday morning by a constable of Magistrate's Venning’s court for the prisoners, but Sheriff Martin declined to deliver either Owens or Hudson, for the reason A Monument to His Enterprise Open ed in Chester. Dr. Stewart Pryor, of Chester, is a Cherokeean who left his old home in Cherokee county near Asbury soon after his graduation, and made his home in Chester, where his marvel ous success in his profession has made him one of the most distin guished physicians and surgeons in the State, and a source of pleasure and pride to his many friends in his native county. He has recently built in Chester the largest and most per fectly equipped hospital in the State, above Charleston, an account of which we copy from the Charleston News and Courier: “Chester. March 2G.—Thursday af ternoon and evening the Magdalen Hospital was formally opened, and a large number of citizens gladly accepted Dr. Pryor’s invitation to visit this model building, which has just been erected at a cost of more than $10,000, and is an ornament to the eminent surgeon’s enterprise and public spirit. There are thirty rooms, fitted with every convenience and fa cility imaginable for the comfort of patients. Dr. Pryor has met with phenomenal success, and is regarded as the most successful surgeon in this section of the State, enjoying the distinction of having operated on more than 140 patients with appendi citis, and only losing three. Miss Henderson, of New York, is head nurse, and is ably assisted by Miss Lucile Withers and Miss Agnes Mc Connell. of this city, with Dr. Am brose E. Wylie as the resident phy sician.” For The Public Library. Mrs. Byers and Mrs. Moorman have secured the services of Miss Sanford, of Augusta, Ga., to help them with an entertainment for the benefit of the library. The fairy spectacular play, “Bon ny Bell,” is planned and elaborated by Miss Sanford, who is a musical genius. She comes with the highest endorsements from the papers of Atlanta, Gainesville. Macon and Quitman, Ga., Opelika, Ala., and other places. All the children of Gaffney, from six to sixteen years of age, are in vited to take part in this play and Mrs. Byers and Mrs. Moorman, re quest the boys and girls from six to sixteen years of age to meet them at the library Tuesday afternoon at 4 o’clock.

Turner Dead. Mrs. George S. Turner died at her home in this county Friday afternoon after an illness of two weeks, and was buried at the family burying ground Saturday afternoon in the presence of a large number of sor rowing relatives and friends. Mrs. Turner was a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Jonas Blanton, was a lady of many charms of person and charac ter, anc was loved by all who knew her. She leaves her husband and two small children and many rel atives and friends to mourn their i loss and who have the sympathy of their large circle of friends. Millionaire’s Poor Stomach. TI e v. orn-out stomach of the over fed millionaire is often paraded in the public prints as a horrible exam ple of the evils attendant on the pos session of great wealth. But million aires are not the only ones who are afflicted with bad stomachs. The pro portion is far greater among the toil ers. Dyspepsia and indigestion are rampant among these people, and they suffer far worse tortures than the millionaire unless they avail them selves of a standard medicine like Green's August Flower, which has been a favorite for all stomach troubles for over thirty-five years. August Flower rouses the torpid liver, thus creating appetite and insuring perfect digestion. It tones and vital izes the entire system and makes life worth living, no matter what your station.

Personal Paragraphs Concerning Pop ular People and Short Items o* General Interest. Correspondence of Tne Ledger.! Etta .Tar e, April 9.—In the Ledger’s report of the Enoree Presbytery we note an error in saying that seventy- two instead of twenty-two dollars was allowed to the delgates for expenses to the general assembly. Miss Amanda Bratton is still very sick, and not expected to live long. Miss Florence Wright is sick with something like pneumonia. Your correspondent has spent the most of the week at Gaffney attend ing the meeting of Enoree Presby tery. The time passed very pleasant ly, and we wish to thank those of our friends who so kindly treated us while in the city. We shall ever cherish a warm feeling for them and it will be a great pleasure to show our appreciation of the same when an opportunity affords. Our people are busy plowing. The ground is in good fix and they are making good use of the time. We are hopeful that the fruit crop has not been seriously damaged by the recent cold snap. In some places it is reported killed, but this is by no means general. Col. R. W. Hunt. D. P. A., writes ns that “A rate of one cent per mile has been made for the reunion at Char leston May -7-19.” Every one who wishes can attend on the lowest pos sible railroad rates, and there is lit tle reason why our county, and partic ularly the Cherokee Regiment, should not have full representation. The next meeting of the Enoree Presbytery is to be at Salem church, and our people, irrespective of de nominational lines, will do all In their power to make it pleasant for the visitors. They will make the meeting a success by extending to the ministers and delegates an old fashioned country welcome. That our Methodist and Baptist brethren will take as much interest and pride in the occasion as the Presbyterians we have not the slightest doubt. They do their part on all occasions an.l they will not fail on this. It may be that the Presbyteries might he better treated in many places, but we as sure them they will never receive a more cordial welcome than that given them by the Salem community. We regret to learn that Magistrate Will Plaxico, of Bullocks Crek, died at his home near Hoodtown yester- day. He was an humble an'* upright man and his many friends will regret to hear of his death. Mr. John R. Osment is visiting friends an I relatives in this section. J. L. S. CYRUS BROWNLEE NEWTON, The Noted Humorist at the Star The atre Tomorrow Night. C. B. Newton, the peerless enter tainer, will be at the Star Theatre tomorrow night, appearing under the auspices of the Masonic an 1 Odd Fel low lodges, and should be greeted by a full house. Fred Emerson Brooks says of Mr. Newton: “Mr. Newton is a humorist who makes you laugh. He is one of the greatest character delineators. He is the character he represents ami his facial expressions cannot be ex- c f, l!od. When he is done you wonder how one man could faithfully ropre- •mut so many people. He is so in tensely interesting that one has to hustle to keep up with his changing moo'K The audience is hardly done one laugh before laughing again; of- o n there’s a tear between laughs.” The Calgary Herald, Canada, says of Mr. Newton: “It takes a remarkable man to be aide to entertain an audience a whole evening. Cyrus Brownlee Newton, who appeared before a splendid audi ence last evening. Is one of the few \ ho can do so successfully. He { equally at home in the dramatic as well as ids humorous selections.” The Cause of the Blues. Nine times out of ten. that mental condition which results in depression, despondency—the blues—is .caused by a torpid action of the liver. In fact, the conditions described above are usually the first manifestations of a sluggish liver. If the attack con tinues, sallowness will soon appear. The next time you feel "blue” take Rydale’s Liver Tablets. You will be surprised to see how quickly the blues will vanish and how bright ami cheerful you will feel. Rydale’s Liver Tablets make the liver healthy and keep it healthy. They regulate the bowels and keep them regular. Fifty tablets for 25 cents. Gaffney Drug Co. Limestone Street M. E. Church.

CHRISTIAN EDUCATION. Dr. Henry Lewis Smith Entertains a Large Audience. The crowning event of the recent session of the Enoree Presbytery was the address of Dr. Henry Lewis Smith, of Davidson College, N. C.. last Thursday evening on “Christian ^Education.” Dr. Smith laid down Vhe four following principles and dis cussed them in a most intelligent and entertaining manner: First—The crisis in the South; our religious spirit in danger. Second—The crisis in our church; our ministry in dan ger. Third—The strategic point; our young men; their Christian training. Fourth—What is Christian educa tion? The harmonious (1) body (2) mind (3) Christian character. The speaker contended that the old South which cherished the higher education of the mind and character was giving away to the now South which cherished industry. He saw nothing wrong in money making, but it should not be made a man’s God. There was danger to the church in such a condition of affairs and the sacred calling of the ministry was suffering because of the commercial spirit of the day. The only way to remedy this evil was to begin on the young men an.! give them a Christian training. Christian education did not mean to educate the mind alone, but meant to educate the body, the mind and the soul. The parent who caused his boy or girl to grow up with a weak body while he educated the mind and soul was committing a sin. He spoke in most enthusiastic terms of the recent victory of the Davidson College baseball team over a rival, and the manly, gentlemanly and Christian manner in which they celebrated their victory, and pooh- poohed the idea that it was impossi ble for Christians to play athlotic games. The speaker closed with a resume of what his college was doing for the church. It had trained 375 ministers, to that sacred calling. The high char acter of the student body had had its effects, and a number of young men had been led to Christian lives by the examples set by their fellow- students. All in all the address was a note worthy one of a noteworthy occasion, and Dr. Smith will be pleasantly re membered by all who heard him. MIDWAY MATTERS. Death of a Lady—Farmers Busy— Personal Mention. Midway, April 11.—We noticed in last Friday’s Ledger that a rich New York man had come to the conclu sion that he could not carry his prop erty to heaven with him when he died, and that he is now giving it away to people who actually need it and where he thinks that it will do most towards relieving the suffering of humanity. We would be pleased to “relieve” him of a few thousands of his surplus wealth. Mrs. Alice Turner, wife of Mr. George Turner, after an illnes of about three weeks, died last Friday and was buried Saturday at the Petty cemetery. The funeral service wa^ conducted by her pastor, Rev. F. C. Hickson. Mrs. Turner leaves a hus band and two small children, the old est of which is about two years old and the youngest but a few weeks old, besides a host of relatives to mourn her death. Mrs.Turner was about twenty-three years old, and was a consistent member of Providence Baptist church. She was a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Blanton of this section. We extend to the sorely bereaved husband and family, both for ourself and on the part of The Ledger, our most sincere sympathy. Mrs. W. H. Pennington and daugh ter, of Gaffney, were visiting In this section last Saturday and Sunday. Mr. and Mrs. C. G. Spencer, of Cherokee Falls, were up Saturday to attend the funeral of Mrs. Turner, who was a sister of Mrs. Spencer. We are having some whooping- cough in this section. Wheat anil oats are hiking fine. The farmer that has not got his land well prepared for this year’s crop certainly can’t lay the blame on Prov idence this time, because it has been the most favorable winter and spring for farm work that we have ever seen; and we are glad to say that our farmers have been fully utilizing the time to put their land in tip-top or der.

Benson, of Reidsville, has in his possession a copy of The New York Herald, just after Abraham Lin coln was assassinated. The paper is a small affair, a six-column folio, but contains a good amount of read ing matter, which is quite interest ing. The correspondent notices clip pings from The Danville Register, and also from the old Raleigh Chron icle, edited then by Zeb Vance. The Herald was the leading paper at that time This old copy seems to be a little short of advertising matter, the promoters, no doubt, receiving their compensation from tne sub scription list. A warrant has been issued for High Keaton, colored, suspected of setting fire to the residence of Mr. E. V. Privett, In Concord township. The negro had contracted to work for Mr. Privett for 12 months, but had decided to quit a few days ago. Mr. Privett refused to pay him for i what he had done under the circum stances. That night the Privett fam ily awoke and discovered the house j on fire. Oil had been poured through a window onto the floor and a pine torch had been applied to set it on fire. The fire was extinguished be fore damage of consequence resulted. The evidence is strongly against Keaton and he has skipped.

Farmers Preparing their Lands— Grain Crops Promising. (CorrfsDonderx e of The Ledger. > New Prospect, Mar. 29.—After working in your county for three months I am now at home in Spar tanburg county. Cherokee, though a young county, is fast coming to the front. It is inhabited by an indus trious and intelligent people, which bespeaks its success. The farmers in this section are very busy now, thoroughly preparing their land before planting. Some of our earliest farmers are putting in guano and talking about going to planting their earliest crops. \\ heat and oats are loking very promising on some farms, while on others one can hardly see them. We notice a decided difference in wheat where it was put in with a drill and where it was put in in the old way. just scattered all over the field with the hand. I think it pays to prepare the land well and then have your wheat put in wth a good drill. We notice a great deal is being said through the columns of our pa- papers about the courts of justice. Well, now, if they are not what they should be who is to blame for it? I will leave it for some one else to answer the question. It seems to me that there is a mistake made in the selection of the jury. We need our most intelligent and best read men to sit on the jury, and nine cases out of ten such men will form an opinion one way or the other about almost every case before it is brought up in court. But there is no man of reason who doesn’t hold himself open to a hearing from the other side of a question. And to look for a man who hasn't reached an opinion re garding important cases is to look for a man who is hardly capable of reaching one at all. Pet. A Busy Saturday. The rain Saturday morning kepi the farmers out of the fields, and when it quit the ground was too wel to plow, which gave hundreds ol them an opportunity to come to the city, and they came. They came from every quarter, and by norm the streets and busines", houses were crowded. It was n . idle throng Everyone seemed to have a missior and to be looking after the business connected with it in a business-like way. The merchants seemed happj and were attentive to their custom ers that thronged their stores. And when the people began to leave ir the late afternoon the immense quan titles of merchandise that was or the buggies and wagons showed whal a profitable business day Saturday had been. Good order prevailed throughout the day. Only a few ap peared to have too much of tbs “chemically pure.” May the tim< soon come when even that few wil not be present to mar the pleasures and hinder the business transactions of their tolerant, but disgustec friends.
