In the election In Spartanburg Tues day the dispensary received another terrific blow, the vote Tuesday night showing 1.689 in favor of prohibition with only 271 for retaining the whis key shops. This was made up from 41 boxes out of a total of 72. The reorganization plan for the Union and Buffalo cotton mills at Union has been submitted to the cre ditors and is in substance that the cre ditors take first and second preferred stock for their claims, taken as they come and that the stockholders take common stock for their share. The J»n is practically the same as that which was effected in the re-organi zation of the Olympia mills. Twenty bales (ft cotton on ten acres is the remarkably large yield reported from a farm in the Fairview section of Greenville county. And when it is stated that this marvelously fine crop was produced by Rich Fowler, the armless writer and former minister of the gospel, it seems that other farm ers, though not so well known to fame, might do even better. Fowler is a good farmer and is holding his en tire crop for better prices. Alleging that he had despoiled his home, Walter Thornhill shot down Henry Strickland on Hammett street, beyond the city limits of Greenville and near the plant of the American ( Spinning Company, at 3 o’clock Tues day afternoon. Thornhill is a barber, employed at the Normandie shop on Main street in Greenville; Strickland l( is a mill operative. The wounded man was able to go into the city, where his injury, which proved a flesh wound in the chest, was dressed by a physi cian. Sam Prince, a negro living in the lower part of Anderson county, was lodged in jail Sunday charged with the murder of Arthur Latimer on Friday tternoon near Starr. It is not very clear just how the killing occurred, but Prince alleges that it was done in self defense. He says that Latimer drew r a pistol on him and threatned his life, though there had been no previous quarrel between them. Prince promptly surrendered to the authorities after the shooting, which ^was done with a shotgun. An unknown negro attempted to as sault the 15-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Koon McKinney, tenants on the farm of Mr. Lee S. Nivens, four miles northwest of Fort Mill Saturday night, but was foiled in his purpose. The young girl had gone to the pas ture after a cow\ when, in the semi darkness, a negro stepped from be hind a tree, drew a gun on her and threatened to kill her if she uttered any outcry. The mother, who had be come alarmed, went after the girl and frightened the cof»r 0 off. A search has been kept up for the negro but as yet no clue to him has ’ m found.

A small colored girl living over in the southeastern part of the city was accidentally shot Tuesday afternoon bv some boys of her own color who were out hunting, or shooting for amusement. The load took effect in the girl’s shoulder, inflicting a pain ful but not necessarily serious wound. The shooting was purely an accident, as the boys did not see the girl at the time she was shot; but the boys were arrested and fined for shooting inside the corporate limits of the town. Such carelessness in the handling of fire arms*'is dangerous, aud should be stopped if possible. COLONEL STRAIN ON HIS TRAVELS DARING RESCUE FROM A WATERY GRAVE. Indecent Postal Cards.

The fine new r hose wagon, which was recently pur chased at a cost of $650, together with all of the hose aud other fire appara tus, was totally destroyed. The fire then spread to the city stables, where six mules and several wagons were burned. From there the fire jumped to the operatives’ houses of the Union cotton mill, four of which were en tirely destroyed. The total loss is estimated at about $6,000, about $3,000 of which will fall on the town.

Frank Smith and Two Colored Men Rescued a Party from Broad River Years Ago. Wilkinsville, R. F. D. No. 1, Nov. 3 — Mr. James Sparks, of the Home sec tion, is quite unwell. He has been sick for several weeks with malarial fever. We spent last night with the family of Mr. Jeff Bearden and our old friend, neighbor and comrade, Mr. A. Frank Smith. Mr. Smith is one of our most worthy citizens—and one of the most unassuming men we know of. There is an incident connected with his life but few of our people re member and still a fewer number ap preciate. For the mention of which we will be pardoned in this connec tion. In May 1869 he lived at what Is known as the Corry or Lipscomb place on Broad river just below Mercer’s mill. At that time be had the manage ment and control of the large estate of Mrs. Annie Smith who lived on the York side of Broad river at Smith ford. He rode down to Mrs. Smifh’s one day just after a heavy rain and while there the river began to rise very fast. Before he got ready to recross and return to his home, the water got too high for him to cross. Miss Clough Smith, a niece of his by marriage, and a grandaughter of Mrs. Annie Smith, noticed a wagon drawn by two horses with one man and two women in it coiping, across the river and fast approaching the deep water and swift current on the, York county side. With all haste she notified her un cle Frank, who rushed to the river’s bank motioning and beckoning them to stop. But before they were aware of ir they were engulfed in the madden ed. raging current and were being car ried down war I at a fearful rapidity. It<«£ to all parties a moment of in- tensPexcitement. Mr. Smith discovered that the occu pants of the wagon were Mr. •‘William Ijockhart, late of this county, has daughter. Miss Orrie and his sister- in-law. Miss Mintie Dunn, who were on their way to visit Mr. Tom Gaff ney, who lived at that time, on the York side of the river. Mr. Smith, who was one of the best as well as one of the most daring swimmers on Broad river, young, courageous and active, calling to some neighbors, who were just behind the point of the island fishing, to bring him the bateau, at once he plunged into the river, and before the bateau reached the imperiled team, Mr. Smith was there. By this time the wagon body was lifted from the running gear and the whole crew was drifting rapid ly toward watery graves. Calling upon the faithful negroes. Copper Smith and Si Smith, who bv this time had reach ed the scene with the bateau, to as sist him. he told Miss Mintie to jump and he caught her in his arms, and, told Si to get Miss Arrie and take her to land while Cooper was to look after and assist old Mr. Lockhart with the team. All realized that upon prompt ac tion depended the fate of the whole party. Mr. Smith led off with Miss Mintie on one arm while with the other he fought the surging waves until lie had landed his living freight on the York side of the river. Before he readied the hank he heard a scream behind him and looking around saw Miss Arrie L.ckhart floating down the stream and Si taking care of himself. As soon as he could do so. Mr. Smith swam to Miss Arrie’s assistance and caught her just as she was sinking and brought her to land too. He ask ed Si why he had not done as he told him and the negro told him ho turned her loose to keep her from drowning him. By this time old Mr. Lockhart and the team and wagon had drifted down the stream for a considerable distance and were hung up on a r&ck. The old gentleihan had go{ out of the wagon ami was in front of the team holding on to the lines while the horses were pawing and surging. Cooper was un able to do anything by himself but when Mr. Smith got there he caught the old man and pulled him out of the way. gave Cooper his knife and told him to cut the horses-loose, which he did. By this time Mr. Smith was completely out of breath, and didn’t feel able to swim out with the old man. But it was oMy the work of a moment to do the planning. He told Cooper to sot Mr. I»ckhart on the horse he was going to mount and for him to ride the other and lead the way. guiding the horse in the swim ming water by slapping him on the sid e of the nock so as to direct him in the course he wanted to go—diagonally down to the opposite hank just above the fish traps. NUith Mr. Lockhart behind him and holding him on with one hand. Mr. ^mith brought him safely to the land and all were saved. In the struggle to get Miss Mintie Dunn out of the river her fine gold watch held by a guard dropped from her belt and was hanging and dang ling about. Mr. Smith saw it, grab bed it and broke it from off-her neck and had the presence of mind to put It in his pocket. She knew nothing of it at the time, and when she had recovered from her shock, Mr. Smith gave it hack to her and told her how he came to get it. Her gratitude was so great for his having saved her life, that she insisted on his keeping it. But he refused to do so and when on her deathbed in Texas several years ago she remembered the river incident and directed that it he sent Mr. Smith with her thankful acknowledgement of his services in saving her life. Miss Arrie Lockhart, her sister, who figured in this well nigh fatal scene, is still alive and lives a few miles west of Gaffney. She married a Mr. Wilson, we think, and to her we re fer onr readers for the proof of this narrative if anyone doubts it. This statement is a fact that is known only to a few of the older citi zens who were living in that section just at that time, and in justice to the partie whom t concerns, we ask for its publication. Cooper Smith is an old colored man at work as a hod carrier in Gaffney and deserves tile "well done thou faithuful servant,” while Mr. A. Frank Smith has been but poorly recognized for the faithful service he rendered at a time when three human lives] were hanging in the balance with all J the possibilities against them. Greater! love hath no man than this, that he | lay down his life for his friend. Thoughtless young man, you can! well afford to raise your hat to such j a man as A. Frank Smith, for this deed | alone is enough to commend him to j the respect, of all patriotic, sensible] people. J. L. S. Wilkinsville. Nov. 4.—The Ledger has got in such a way of reporting our ] running about that it got us away; down in Columbia in yes'terday’s is sue. Calling the attention of the edi tor-in-chief to this mixture of news,: he explained that, it was merely, an ] accident in making up the forms. When we told him that it looked, like he was—well, we won’t say what,! or how, he said not a word of it was so. for he hadn’t seen a drop. Mr. H. B. McDaniel has had another, relapse and is quite unwell. He has , never recovered fully from the attack he had last summer. -J. L. S. THROUGHOUT THE TARHEEL STATE RECENT EVENTS OF NOTE IN NORTH CAROLINA. A Marvelous Success. The success of the ten days gigantic sale now going on at Nelson, the Star Clothier's, is being marveled at by all the business men of Gaffney and it has eclipsed anything of its kind ever known in this section of the country. From the opening day hundreds and hundreds of customers have filled the store all day, taking advantage of the greatest bargains ever known in Cherokee county. The manager, Mr. J. R .Goldburg, of St. Louis, representing the New York and St. Louis Consolidated Salvage Company, has'spoken to many of the business men of Gaffney and they all heartily endorse Mr. Nelson’s energy and busines sagacity in arranging this sale, and thank him for the increased business, the result of his successful ef forts. Hundreds of our neighbors from North Carolina and distant points, who have not crossed the line in years, vwere seen in town during the progress of the sale and upon being asked where they had heard about it, almost all said they had seen it in The Ledger—the medium of honest adver tising. The success of this sale is attri buted to the honest methods of adver tising employed and it should be taken for granted that in the future all trade will be supplied with the same high grade, honest merchandise as before. Mr. Goldburg has requested us to state that the sale positively closes Saturday November 18th. A Coming Marriage. The following invitations have been issued by Mr. and ^\rs. W. A. Peeler, of this city: Mr. and Mrs. Wylie Anderson Peeler request the honor of your presence at the marriage of their daughter Blanche Lois to Mr. Harry Paul Byars on the evening of Wednesday, the fifteenth of November at eight o’clock 205 Depot Street Gaffney.

Long will preside. The term begins December 11th. Another special term also of criminal court is ordered December ]8th. Judge Ward presiding. ^ Ray Walsh shot and killed Cisco Sheehan at Lenoir Sunday afternoon. They were both young white men. It appears that Sheehan Roy and John WaHh had been gambling and drink ing together the better part of Satur day night. Sheehan is known to have had some money, and none was found on him or among his belongings after his death: so it is presumed that the trouble began over his losses in gamb ling . A number of witnesses saw the whole thing. From the testimony of those who live on the spot, there was no doubt that Sheehan had been fur iously drunk. Chambers & Moody and the Caro lina Grocery Company, two well known wholesale grocery firms of Charlotte are to he consolidated after the first of the year, under the name of the Chambers & Moody Company, incorporated. The new concern will occupy the stand on South College street, which has been used by Cham bers & Moody for a number of years. The articles of incorporation were signed Tuesday and were sent to the Secretary of State with an application for a charter. The new company will have a capital stock of $li1ft.00O, of \fhich $52,000 has been paid in. There was a killing in Saulston township, near Goldsboro late Satur day night, the particulars of which are meagre. It seems that there was a corn shucking at the farm of j|r. J. E. Parks, and one man by the name of Smith, an/1 two boys got into a tussel. The man was getting the best of the bout when a third boy. named Jackson ran up behind him, it is alleged, and stabbed him in the back. He died al most instantly. The sheriff was no tified early next morning and he. with Coroner Thomas Hill, went to the scene of the crime and held an in quest over the body of the murdered man. Lawrence Lee, a colored workman, was instantly killed in a cotton seed conveyor at the plant of the Elba Manufacturing Company in Charlotte Tuesday afternoon at 2:30 o’clock. He was working near the conveyor, one of the screw variety, when in some unknown way, he was caught In it and almost instantly killed. His body was badly multilated. A number of fellow employes heard Lee’s screams for help, but when they got to him and stopped the machinery he was dead. His remains were sent to an under taking establishment. Lee was 50 years old and is survived by a wife and several children. He had been working for the Elba Manufacturing Company for sometime and was a faithful employe. ^ SIMPLE REMEDY 'OR t,.. -r ARRH.
