GAFFNEY, 8. C., FRIDAY, MARCH 17, 1905. 81.00 A YEAR. LIPSCOMB-WEBB. A bold burglary was committed in Lancaster county Sunday night. The residence of Mr. Lester Starnes, a few miles above the town of Lancas ter. was entered and !*21.0!t in cash and his revolver stolen fron under Mr. Starnes’ pillow while he was i asleep. Will Thomas, a. negro in Mr. | Starnes’ employ, who has since dis- j appeared, is suspected of the crime; and Sheriff Hunter is now on his trail A Popular Young Couple Spring a Surprise on Their Friends. Mr. Albert Sidney Lipscomu and Miss Etta Webb surprised their friends Wednesday night by repairing to the parlor of the First Baptist chuch immediately after the prayer meeting service and taking upon themselves the marriage vow. For some time this young couple has been acting in such a manner as to commend the admiration of all Gaffney—for all the world loves a lover—but it was not expected that they would be quite so sly about the ceremony. Miss Webb went to prayer meeting with some ’’uung ladies and Mr. Lip scomb went With some young gentle men. During the service they occu pied different benches and no one had the ler st idea that there was anything in the air until after service it was noted that a few, including the couple and some friends, remained. In a short while the party repaired to the parlor of the church, where the pas tor, Dr. A. M. Simms, spoke the words that made thehi man and wife. Mr. Lipscomb is one of the best young business men in Gaffney. He is not of the skyrocket order, but has, from a small beginning, by strict attention to business, built up one of the best businesses in his line. He is a quiet, unassuming young gen tleman and has brightened his fu ture prospects by taking unto him self a wife. Miss Webb is a native of Moores boro, N. C. She has been living in Gaffney several years and has by her amiable disposition and modest man ner made a host of friends, who will wish for her a world of happiness In her new sphere of life. The Ledger joins in congratulations to them. A NEWSY LETTER FROM WILKINSVILLE. MOVEMENTS OF THE PEOPLE OF LOWER CHEROKEE. The Camden Cotton Mills, at Cam den, began work Monday morning after having been shut down for some months past. The mills will hereaf ter he known as the Hermitage Cot ton Mills. A DELIGHTFUL EVENT. Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Jefferies Entertain a Number of Friends. On Tuesday night Mr.and Mrs. J. C. Mr. H. G.

Jefferies’ gentlemen friends at their York on business connected with it. elegant and hospitable home on Gre- Evory detail will he carefully looked nard street. The reception was an in after and the future success of the formal one, held in honor of Judge Hermitage Cotton Mills is confidently expected. At a meeting Monday of the direct ors of the Union and the Buffalo cot ton mills at Union, it was decided that the ten-hour work system be adopted in the mills mentioned. This action was based on the idea that a larger production and better goods would be obtained by this plan. The decision affects a large number of op eratives, as the Buffalo and Union Mills are among the largest in the South. There will be no reduction of wages. A Darlington jury on last Friday convicted Bob Small and John Noll, two white men, of the murder of a negro. The victim of the murders was Frank Scott. They killed the ne gro on the public highway under the most brutal circumstances and abso lutely without justification. Noll was recommended to the mercy of the court. Small was sentenced to he hanged on May 5, and Noll was sen tenced to imprisonment for life in the penitentiary. One of the mall clerks who was in the wreck of No. 37, the southbound vestibule of the Southern near Fair- forest, several weeks ago, will sue the road for damages. The following item, relative to the suit, is clipped from the Charlotte News: “Mr. J. S. Eagle, a railway mail clerk, who al leges that he was injured in the wreck of No. 37 at Falrforest several weeks ago has instituted a suit against the Southern railway for $15,000.” In the complaint filed by Mr. Eagle In At lanta. he claims that the accident to the vestibule at Fairforest was caused by a defective roadbed. Charles Thompson, a well-known illicit whiskey dealer of Columbia, was killed by a Seaboard Air Line train about twenty miles north of Co lumbia last Tuesday night. He had had a quantity of whiskey shipped to himself at a station on the Seaboard and was transporting it to Columbia with a wagon and team of mules. The team stalled on the railroad track and he went toward an approaching train and tried to wave it down. The train was coming at the rate of sixty miles an hour. The engineer saw the sig nal and applied the emergency brakes; but the train did Personal Paragraphs Concerning Pop ular Pooplo and Short Items of General Interest. Purdy, Of Sumter, who is holding court at Gaffney. Mr. and Mrs. Jefferies are ideal en tertainers at all times, and on thta occasion they seemed to be at their best, and nothing had been omitted that would add to the pleasure of their guests. A sumptuous supper, consisting of an elegant and delicious menu, had been pepared under the supervision of the hostess, and it was served in the most tempting manner conceiv able. It is needless to say that every one present enjoyed himself to the fullest extent possible. Those who had the plAsure of the hospitality of Mr. and Mrs. Jefferies were: Judge O. L. Purdy. T. B. But ler, Jas. A. Willis. D. C. Ross, N. H. Littlejohn, J. N. Lipscomb, J. D. Jones, A. M. Deal, Ed. H. DeCamp, H. K. Osborne, C. A. Jefferies, Dr. Brown. Mrs. Dr. B. R. Brown added much to the enjoyment of the occasion by assisting Mrs. Jefferies in looking af ter the wellfare of the guests. A Stranger's Strange Conduct. Saturday a w r ell dressed young man alighted from No. 35, the southbound night passenger train due here about 12 o’clock, and instead of going to a hotel or seeking lodging anywhere, he proceeded to walk the streets. The night officers soon caught sight of him, and as his actions were such as to excite suspicion, they kept their eyes on him and followed him. After attempting to elude tbeir vigilance for some little time and failing, the stranger finally went up the stairway leading to the upper rooms of the new National hank building. The of ficers followed immediately and caught up with the young man: and as he refused to state his name or his business, he was taken to the guard house and locked up. Sunday morn ing he was still abrupt, and almost defiant; hut by noon he condescended to givf' his name, and told Chief Lock hart that he lived in a near by town. Mr. Ixickhart telephoned to the chief of police of the town mentioned and received the assurance that the young man was all right in every way; and, consequently, he was released from custody. What his object was in act ing in such a suspicious manner is a matter for conjecture. He remarked when arrested that the officers prob- t t ably thought they had one of the Me- until It had passed the erossing | robbers but ,hat the>r ’ rere Thompson was struck by some part of the engine and killed, and the mules were also killed.

She ^ras the mother of Mrs. Sallie B. Estes and a woman noted for her piety and high Christian character, and her family hive our sincere sympathies. Also, another dear old mother In Israel has passed to her reward. Mrs. Martha J. Bell, mother of our esteemed friend and citizen, Capt. James B. Bell, of the Gaffney bar. For a long time we have known Mrs. Bell as a most estimable lady and one whose hospi tality we have often enjoyed. She was a member of one of York county’s oldest, most popular and influential families; a life-long member of the Presbyterian cbjirch. Her family have our heartfelt sympathies. Of these dear ladies we can rev erently say: ‘ With sparkling crowns and harps of gold, They make salvation’s anthem roll; Their earthly kingdoms have become The kingdom of God’s righteous Son. We note that In what is called the salary or “mileage grab” in congress the South Carolina delegation voted as follows: Messrs. Aiken and Legare voted yea; Messrs. Finley and Lever nay; while Messrs. Croft, Johnson and Scarborough were paired and conse quently didn’t vote at all. It’s always a pleasure for us to note the success of our neighbors—white or colored. Rev. P. R. Davidson, of the C. M. E. church, has three charges in what is known as West Columbia, that pay him $300 to $400 a year. The family of Mr. Brewington are putting a wire fence around the graves of their dead who are buried at Beth lehem church, in Union county. Mr. W. R. Walker has a Mr. Hol comb, of West Springs, attending to his farm in this section. Messrs. Ben McCulloch and Jesse Orr went to Hickory Grove last Friday on business. Some of the farmers have com menced plowing. The supply of com mercial fertilizers will not come up to that of former years if present indi cations are taken as a basis of calcula tion. The cooing of the dove reminds us of the approach of springtime. Rev. R. p. Smith, of Asheville, N. C., who has been for several years en gaged in the missionary work in West ern North Carolina, has had his work extended so as to cover the entire State. He is a native of this State and is well known to a large number of our readers, who will be glad to hear of his promotion. He and his family are good friends of The Ledger and take an interest in our State and county affairs. By some means The Ledger failed to reach us lAt Friday. We are told by the mailing department that the pa per scarcely ever fails to be mailed in time to reach its patrons on schedule time—Tuesdays and Fridays. Of all the beings on earth commis sioned by his Satanic majesty to spread his kingdom among mankind, the professional mischief making liar is the arch demon. His presence and influence is seen and felt more or less is every community. Nothing escapes his poisonous breath, and friendship between neighbors and communities is the chief object of his attacks. By a Satanic artfulness, fresh from the workshop of the master mechanic of the infernal regions, he manages to make himself popular with those whom he chooses as his victims. The purity of the noblest womanhood and the highest order of Christian charac ter are not immune to the venomous touch of his slimy tongue. Some cases of small pox are reported on the other side of Broad river. The chaingang is at work repairing the gully bridge near Mr. Dave Fowl er’s. on the Union road. Miss Bonnie McCluny Is at home quite sick, so we understand. In last Friday’s Ledger we notice that Mr. C. F. Inman has renewed his subscription to The Ledger. We lost the bet and “Clough” in entitled to the stakes. Before Christmas we spoke to Mr. Inman about renewing his sub scription, when something like the fol lowing took place between us: Correspondent:—“Don’t von want to take advantage of The Led ger s proposition to get the paper for another year for $1.00?” Mr. Inman:—“My time will be out in March and I’ll renew then.” Cor.: “But you’ll have to pay $1.50 for it then.” came a tumble in the price of cotton far below the cost of production. Then follows a cut in the price of the papor( as asserted by the publisher) to boar its part of the burden so se riously effecting the farmers and the country at large. And so we lost the bet. Yet we have the poor satisfaction of knowing that It was "Clough’s" bad luck rather than his good Judgment that made him tho winner. Mrs. "J. L. S.’ is quite sick and has been so for several days, but she has n’t got to the point where she thinks a little whiskey would help her. We made a hurried trip to Gaffney yesterday, during which wo met sever al parties from different sections of the county, all of whom (the farming people, especially) seem to be in great hopes that a much needed revolution is now In progress that will eventu ally place thorn and the country at large in a much better position than they have ever been. The Wilkinsvllle ginnery Is now at work putting the remnant of last year’s cotton crop in better shape for warehousing or keeping for bettor prices. Mr. Jimmie Strain is preparing to build him a new dwelling house. He has the lumber, or most of It, on the ground. Mr. John Estes, Sr., has been on the sick list for several days. Hon. D. E. Finley. M. C., has sent a lot of garden seeds to the people of this section, for which he has our thanks. Rev. W. D. Hammett will preach at Abingdon Creek church next Sabbath at 11 o’clock A. M. J. L. S.

The following letter will prove in teresting reading to those citizens of Gaffney and Cherokee county who have taken an interest in the hill In cong ress to establish a Federal court in this State: Washington, D. C., March 11, ’05. Mr. A. R. N. Folger, Gaffney, S. C. Dear Sir:—In renly to your letter of the 6th will say that congress ad journed on the 4th without passing the new' district bill. I was In favor of any compromise that would secure legisla tion, hut the opposition to the hill un less it designated Rock Hill and Spar tanburg had the effect of killing the measure, as the senate would not a tree to putting them in. I suppose the matter will come up again next session, and I will hear your sugges tion in mind, although there are so many claimants already that it does not seem possible to name Gaffney now. With best wishes, I am. Yours very truly, A. C. Latimer. Sarratt-Gaffney. Yesterday afternoon at 3:30 o’clock Mr. I. G. Sarratt and Miss Ida Gaffney were quietly married at the Baptist parsonage in this city. Rev. A. M. Simms performed the ceremony in the presence of a few of the immediate family and relatives of the bride and groom. Mr. Sarratt is the father of Mr. Boyd Sarratt, proprietor of the Exchange barber shop in this city, and was for merly a magistrate at this place. His bride is a daughter of Mrs. Myra Gaff ney, and is a good and w'orthy wo man. The Ledger joins in extending con gratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Sarratt, and wishes them many years of happi ness and prosperity. They will make their home at Limestone. Items of Interest Concerning Oui Neighbors in the Old North State Culled Expressly for Ledger Readers Gov. Glenn will now have time to review the list of applicants for places as directors of the North Car olina Railroad. It Is said that there are about 1500 candidates for the eight vacancies. The Southern Railway Company has awarded the contract for the con- struction of the double traek from Greensboro to High Point, and work will begin as soon as the weather will permit and the material can he secured. Judge Purnell in the United States court Saturday made an order in the noted Onslow county bond suit— Tolman vs. the commissioners of Ons low county—appointing Mr. Eugene Martin special master in the case to find the facts and report to the court. Senator Simmons extended an invi tation to President Roosevelt to at tend the annual assembly of school teachers of North Carolina to he held next June. The president expressed his appreciation of the invitation, hut indicated that he would he unable to accept. Gov. Glenn refused to appoint any of the members of'the legislature to any of the positions at his disposal. It seems that some of them asked to he appointed directors of the State In stitution, etc., hut the governor, for various reasons, did not think such appointments proper. Ex-President Cleveland was some time ago invited to address the next annual meeting of the North Carolina Bankers’ Association to he held in May in Charlotte. Monday President Fries received a letter saying that it would be impossible for him to ac cept, owing to plans already made to be absent from home at the time. Although the dispensary campaign at Asheville has only been on for three days, it has reached the boiling point and nothing else is heard in the streets. The new afternoon paper, the Anti-Saloon Advocate, made Its appearance Saturday afternoon. Al ready thoro Is much bitterness be-, tween the forces and personal friend ships are becoming strained. There appears to have been an er ror In the statement that the act of the recent legislature, designed to prevent hunting and fishing In one of the townships of Anson county be tween March 20th and January 20th of each year, was so worded as to cause it to apply to the whole State. A careful examination shows that the provisions of the act extend no fur ther than was intended. Cherokee Court. When court adjourned Monday night it had just begun on the damage case of W. F. Moore vs. Drs. Nesbitt and Allen. This case consumed all of Tuesday and Wednesday, the jury ren dering a verdict late Wednesday even ing in favor of the defendants Thursday morning the case of Bans Spencer vs. Samuel Jefferies was call ed and continued because of'the allow ance of the pleadings. The next case taken up was Hickory Mfg. Co., vs. L. Baker, which abruptly terminated in favor of the 4efendant. As we go to press the case of Lester Dewberry, alias Dubert, alias Juberr, vs. the Western Union Telegraph Co., is in progress. If it isn’t wound up by the jin jitsu treatment w'e shall report the result in next issue. The “B. B.” Club Entertained. Misses Lula and Freeman Garrett entertained the “B. B.” club this week, assisted by their aunt, Mrs. Howard Kroh, of Baltimore. A picture game was played, which was amusing and highly enjoyed by all. The first prize was won by Miss Wilmer Gaffney, while Miss Lucy Carpenter carried off the consoler. A two course luncheon was served, and the club voted this meeting as one of the exceptional pleasures of the season. Mayor Boyden, of Charlotte, re ceived a telegram Tuesday from Dr. W. H. Goler, president of Livingston College (colored), that Andrew Car negie had given a library to this in stitution. The Associated Pre«s dis patches Tuesday morning told of it. hut gave no amount. Dr. Goler’s tel egram says it is $12,500. an uncondi tional endowment. The Livingston students and faculty—mighty good colored people^-are very jubilant. Senator C. E. Hutchison, of Gaston county, introduced a hill, which was later mad^ a law, the purpose of which was to compel common car riers to settle promptly for losses in freight and so-forth. After 60 days from the time the complaint is filed, the road is penalized with the cost and interest. It is almost the same law that, is in force in South Caroli na and Georgia. It has been a custom of some railroads to delay the settle ment of such claims indefinitely. Chief of Police Scott, of Greens- boro, received notice from Concord Tuesday morning that two negroes, wanted there for house-breaking, had been spotted in Greensboro. He heard that two men answering the descrip tion had been seen in the cotton mill settlement around Proximity. Two officers were sent out there to arrest the men, but while the officers were in one locality the burglars were evi dently burglaring another, as It was discovered that the home of Joe Wil- Inquest Held Monday at Blacksburg Over Body of Robt, Moore, Jr. On Tuesday of last week Robert Moore, Jr., and Gus Moss had a dif ficulty near Blacksburg, an account of which was published In last Friday’s Ledger. In the difficulty Moore re ceived wounds which caused his death Monday morning. Coroner Vinesett held an Inquest Monday over the body of Moore at which Dr. Wm. Anderson, of Blacks burg, who had attended him and also made the post morte n examination, testified as follows: That, he was called to attend Moore, and found him suffering from flesh wounds, one on left side of neck, one on top of head, and one on right shoul der, all having the appearance of hav ing been made by some sharp Instru ment, most probably a knife. There were several more scratches on head and left shoulder. I sewed up the wounds and he was taken to the house of Mr. Walker Moss' by his aunt, Mrs. Moss. When I first saw Moore he was delirious, disorderly and seemed to be suffering great pain Before I could proceed with my work I had to put him under the influence of chloroform. On Wednes day morning I visited Moore at Mr. Moss’ and found his mental condi tion clear, though still a little cloudy and dull, and his wound doing nicely. Early Monday morning was called to see him: found him suffering greatly and very restless. He continued to get worse, became unconscious, and died about 10 o’clock." The following verdict was rendered by the coroner’s jury: “Being a lawful jury of Inquest, who boiug charged and sworn to Inquire for the. State of South Carolina where and by what means the said Robert Moore, Jr., came to his death, upon their votes do say that he, Robert Moore, came to his death by flesh wounds Inflicted by a sharp Instru ment, or a blow on the head by a blunt instrument, in the hands of Gus Moss, or Estelle Smith: and so the jury aforesaid do say that the afore said Gus Moss or Estelle Smith, in manner and form aforesaid, Robert Moore then and there feloniously did kill, against the peace and dignity of the State of South Carolina.” J.

Experiences Similar to This Have Oc casioned Considerable Comment in Gaffney. Few women are better known in Lockport, N. Y.. than Mrs. Pattie D.

In a recent interview Mrs. Hall said: “The experience I have been through in the last two years seems like a miracle. I was so badly off that life seemed almost unendur able, and my deafness increased so that I could scarcely hear anything.
