FRIDAY, DEG.
LOUIS SALISBURY’S
WORLD’S GREATEST :
OF
What is Going on in and Around that
Busy Little Town.
Grover, N. C., Nov. 26.—We are
having some fine weather now for the HMC MIPUT V
farmers to sow thdr fall crop of grain,! IJliL (lluil I tPl! I
and they are making good use of it.
Some have finished soving while a
greater part have nearly finished. A
large crop generally is being sowed.
The fall in the price of cotton has,
it seems, scared a great many raisers
and they are rushing it to market.
Yesterday evening Mr. D. J. Keeter
had a team hauling cotton to King’s
Mountain, with a boy driver, and on
the way one bale got out of order.
The boy stopped to fix it and in the
mean time a flour salesman came by
and seeing the boy in need of help, ;
he and his driver stopped and helped
him fix the cotton. The cotton being
fixed the drummer struck a match on
the wagon wheel o light his cigar.
The head of the match broke off and
flew against the cotton which instant
ly caught fire. They used their best
efforts to put it out but before they
succeeded, the cotton was damaged
about fifty dollars or more.
The drummer says he will pay all
damages. That was a costly smoke
for him.
Last Thursday, November 24th, a
crowd of lively, lovely and pleas
ure seeking boys and girls went
from here to spend Thanksgiving on
and at the King’s Mountain pinnacle.
They had a-grand time. The moun
tain was rough, steep and hard to
climb, but they were well paid for
their hard climb, with the great pleas
ure they had while on It, viewing the
beautiful and prosperous surrounding
country, as well as talking to and
being with their friends and loved
ones. The occasion will long be re
membered by all who were so lucky as
to be one of that happy and beautiful
band, which contained not a single
dissatisfied nor misbehaved person.
Mr. C. F. Turner was taken sick
this morning at 4 o'clock with billions
colic. He is quite ill.
The revival meeting will begin at
Antioch on Thursday before the se^
cond Sunday in December. The peo
ple of that church are expecting and
asking for a glorious revival among
the church members as well as the
unsaved. “Pleasure Seeker.”

The Great Balloon Ascension.
One of the many realistic and in
teresting moving pictures, whicli will
be presented at the Star Theatre Fri
day night is a very wonderful repre
sentation. It shows a mammoth gas
balloon tugging and swaying at Its
moorings, encircled by thousands of
people ready at the last moment to
salute the balloon’s passengers with
a farewell cheer, as they rise from
mother earth to begin their unknown
journey. As the balloon rushes
through the air the passengers are
seen making observations through a
large telescope on the people and ci
ties they are passing above.
These views are wonderfully repro
duced and shown at intervals to the
audience, making one almost feel that
he is also taking this thrilling and ex
citing trip himself.
They finally discover an' approach
ing thunder storm, and as the drop
ping of sand bags fails to lift the bal
loon higher they give up in despair
and await their fate. The down pour
of rain and crash of thunder is sim
ply terrific: finally the lightning ends
their terrible suspense and agony by
striking and exploding the gas cham
ber of the balloon sending the basket,
or car and its occupants whirling
through space, knowing not where
they will land or what their fate and
approaching end will he. Fortunately
for them they land in the ocean and
willing hands rescue them from the
basket of the balloon before the wild
waves have time to envelop them.
This grand spectacle is but one of
many of Louis Salisbury’s greatest
exhibition.
