' Train No. 39 was annulled both Fri day and Saturday on account of a wreck near Lynchburg, Va. The interior of the National Bank has been in the hands of painters for several days, and looks quite neat and refreshing in its now coat. During the recent freshet two bridges were washed away on the branch line of the Southern Railway between this place and Blacksburg. The flying Jenny, which has been in operation in this city for several weeks, has taken up stakes and gone Shelby, N. C., to be there for the "home-comers” week. On account of the absence of the pastor of the First Baptist church, Rev. Dr. Simms, who is in the moun tains of Western North Carolina rest ing from his arduous labors during the past hot months, there was no services at that church Sunday, and the congregation worshiped with the Buford Street Methodist congregation. A Prisoner Escapes. Last Fridav Odell Laney, a negro youth about eighteen years of age. and bearing an unsavory reputation, was arrested at Greer by Chief of Po lice Duncan, of Blacksburg, who had gone to Greer for that purpose. Laney is charged with housebreaking at Blacksburg sometime during last month. He was taken back to Blacks burg and granted a hearing before Magistrate Gold last Saturday. The magistrate considered the evidence suf ficient to hold him, and he bound the prisoner over to the fall term of court under $300 bond, in default of which the prisoner was ordered to be taken to jail. Constable J. M. Allison started to Gaffney with the prisoner in a buggy. When near Broad river, it is said, the negro struck Constable Allison in the face and jumped out of the buggy and made good his es cape. Arrested for Retailing. United States Deputy Marshal A. L. Hallman arrested Ben Metts last Thursday at Blacksburg for selling liquor and carried him before U. S. Commissioner Trescot Saturday even ing for a hearing. Metts plead guilty to the charge and was bound over to Greenville court. Metts was head waiter at Mrs. Thompson’s Hotel. When Bert hears of a blind tiger he never rests until he runs him down. If every county had officers who per formed their dutv In this respect as does Cherokee’s there would be less talk of not being able to enforce the prohibition law. Mayor’s Court. Yesterday morning Mayor Gaffney had four cases on docket. The first two cases were cases of drunk and disorderly. They were each fined $2.50 or five days. They paid. The next case was against Clarence Sarratt, colored, for stealing water melons. He, of course, plead not euil- ty, but his pleadings were in vain, as the mayor was satisfied as to his guilt. He was fined $10 or thirty days. He *ook the days. Rob Gaffnev, colored, was also up for being disorderly. As Bob is a chronic offender the mayor gave him $5 or ten days. He, of course, paid the five. A Change of Firm. Dr. J. E. Green, of the Gaffney Drug Co., has sold out his interest in that concern to Dr. Garland, pharma cist for the Crawley Drug Co. Mr. Green expects to go to Baltimore, where he will engage in business. He has made many friends in Gaffney who will regret to see him leave. The Ledger anticipates that the new firm will continue to meet with the same success with vjj^ich the old firm met. I I C0IIIS WHERE ALL ELSE FAILS. I Best Cough Syrup. Tastes Good. Dm lu time.
