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.
