Is Economy
an Object
to You?
Howard
Cinclnw H
Economy, at the expense of
quality, is extravagance. The
“ Howard” is a piano of quali
ty, but economy in its con
struction is practiced by elimi
nating costly ornamentation.
It is modest, but refined; plain,
but solid and reliable. Fully
warranted by us.

The Revival Closed.
The revival meeting at the First Bap
tist church closed Friday night, after
having been in progress for nearly
two weeks. Friday afternoon Dr.
Hamilton preached on the street to a
fairly good crowd of interested listen
ers. The subject of his discourse was
the importance of correct living—the
influence of one’s life upon another—
and he impressed it upon his hearers
that whatsoever they sowed they
might expect to reap, and reap a
harvest.
The doors of the church were opened
Thursday night and several were re
ceived for membership, and were
baptized Friday night. The places of
business in the city were generally
closed for the afternoon service, so
that the employees might attend; and
a great deal of interest was manifested
in the meeting by all classes, young
and old, as all the services were large
ly attended.
Drs. Hamilton and Simms have done
a good work for the Master’s cause in
Gaffney, and much of it, no doubt, will
be lasting.
Dr. Hamilton left Saturday for his
home in Kentucky, carrying with him
the best wishes of the Gaffney people.
Verdict in Stacy Case.
In the case of J. A. Carroll, et. al.,
executors of F. G. Stacy’s estate,
against the Fidelity and Casualty Com
pany, heard in Greenville last week,
a verdict was rendered in favor of
the plaintiff for the full amount sued
for, $5,000.
After Mr. Stacy died application
was made at once to the insurance
company for the payment of a policy
held by a relative. This was refused
on the ground that death did not re
sult from accident, but was brought
about by Mr. Stacy himself and in the
performance of an unlawful act. Suit
was begun against the insurance peo
ple and the case came up for trial on
its merits.
It is considered important in the
world of accident insurance and will
attract unusual attention.
The plaintiff was represented by
.T. C. Jefferies, Esq., of this city, and
H. J. Haynesworth, Esq., of Greenville.
Under buy and Under sell is our motto, and ycur Money back
if you want it.

Young Men’s Sunday.
Mr. A. C. Bridgeman, representing
the Inter-State Committee of Uje
Young Men’s Christian Association, was
in the city yesterday morning and ar
ranged for a “Young Men’s Sunday”
on May 14th. A number of workers
will be brought here who will address
the congregations of the several
churches in the forenoon and at 4
o’clock in the afternoon there will he
a mass meeting of the young men at
the First Baptist church conducted by
these Christian workers. At night
there will he a union meeting at the
Buford Street Methodist church and
| at the Cherokee Avenue Baptist
i church. All these meetings will be
conducted by Christian workers who
j have made a special study of the work
! among young men. A great deal of
I good is being accomplished by these
| raetings they are holding.
Early Closing,
The first of May is here and the
merchants would do well to adopt the
early closing plan. \Ye would not for
a moment think of trying to dictate
to them how they should run their bus
iness but they and their clerks have
been working very faithfully since last
fall and it appears to us that shorter
hours would enable them to do the
business and also allow them a much
needed rest. Nearly all the stores in
the cities are now run on the early
closing plan and we like to see Gaffney
run on the same principle as the larg
er cities. We simply throw this out
as a suggestion, believing that the
\ merchants will not lose .anything by
, adopting the plan.
