Yesterday’s Charlotte Observer con tained the following news item which will be read with a great deal of in terest and pleasure by every citizen of Gaffney; Mr. J. A. Jones, the Charlotte Con tractor, has been awarded the job for the construction of the Southern’s new $10,000 depot at Gaffney, S. C. A telegram announcing this was receiv ed from Mr. D. W. Lum, chief engin eer in Washington, yesterday. Mr. Jores will probably begin work about the first of January and expects to have the depot completed by the last of May. He is now encaged In the rearing of the new Highlands Hotel, which, when complete, will he on-' c tin finest buildings in the State.” Contractor Jones is quite weB known in this city; and the fact that he has the contract for erecting the Southern’s new denot insu es a handsome building, first-class wortt- manship and prompt construction. Verily, Gaffney will soon have a de pot of which she may well feel proud; and we should appreciate the South ern’s efforts to give us one which will bo an ornament to our city. Election of Officers. , At a regular communication of Gra- nard l^odge No. 180. held December 5th, 1905, the following officers were elected and installed to serve for the ensuing year: J. T. Darwin. W. M.: D. P. Sides, S. W.; A. B. Smith, J. W.; R. M. Gaffney, Treas.; J. Eb. Jefferies, Sec’y.: Her man G. Nelson. S. D.: T. J. Lavender, J. D.: W. H. Ross and D. W. Cooper, Stewards, J. E. Austell, Tyler. At the regular communication in November in pursuance of a resolu tion, the time of meeting was changed from the first Tuesday night in each month back'to Saturday night, on or before the full moon in each month. There are now one hundred and six members in Granard Lodge, and it is very much desired that more of the members attend the regular communi cations. Surprised Their Friends. Mr. Henry Lockhart and Miss Louise Gilmer, two prominent young people of this city, surprised their friends Tuesday night by repairing to the Baptist parsonage and taking up on themselves the vows which made them one for life. Dr. Simms per formed the ceremony in the presence only of the members of his own family. Miss Gilmer is the daughter of Mrs. A. M. Gilmer, of this city, and is a very modest, attractive and popular young lady. Mr. Lockhart is an effi cient member of the city police force, and the number of his friends is limit ed only by the circle of his acquaint ance. The Ledger wishes them a bright and prosperous life, full of the hap piness they both merit. ^ PISO’S CURE FOR M CUES WHERE «U ELSE FAILS. taJ Best CouKh Syrup. Taste* G ITvl la lima.
