The second entertainment given by the Gaffnev Music Club at the Star Theatre Friday evening was attended by a large and appreciative audience. A well selected and attractive pro gram assured in advance an enter taining performance. The orchestral music gave evidence not only of careful training on the part of the director, hut also of pa tient practice on the part of each member. Especial credit is due Miss Potter, who played all accompani ments with a skill unusual for one of her years. The success of the operetta was due largely to the training given to the cadets by Mr. J. L. Daniel, who gave much time and attention to that feat ure, and who also successfully played the role of stasre manager. The stage picture of the Gypsy en campment was wierd and charming: the costumes brilliant and appropri ate. The song story of Azucena was rendered in a dramatically effective manner by Mrs. Daniels, and the An vil Chorus was given with a snap and vigor which the music demands. The “Creole Love Song,” by Mrs. Frank Laney, is deserving of special mention. Much could be said by way of praise of each member of the club, hut space forbids. It suffices to say that all played well their parts, showing that the Club is enthusiastic in its work and that theyy'puli well together” un der the skillful management of Prof. W. L. Johnson, the director. It is due to the director to sav that his work Improves with his years, and in training the Gaffney Music Club he is giving his best talent; the results speak for themselves. The object of the Music Club is to interest the young people in good music and to develop the musical tal ent in Gaffney, as well as. to enter tain the public with good music, with its refining influence. The club should have the active support and sympathy of all music- loving people of Gaffney. We trust that Prof. Johnson’s good work may continue and that the Club will be a success financially and other wise. We await in expectation the next series of entertainments. Prospects for Baseball in Gaffney This Summer Bright. Baseball continues to be one of the (ffiief to*’ , '‘~ of conversation in the I city, but any step toward having good sport in the city has been con-; spicuous bv its absence until a few days ago, when the subject was con siderably agitated by a number of ! baseball fanatics and other business i men intensely interested in the great ; national sport. It developg now that an excellent ground is in prospect and j that it win be Inclosed by a fence at once. Local merchants express a de- ' sire to do extensive advertising with | the baseball association in the way I of fence signs. Several merchants state that it is their intention to paint i sings offering hats, shoes, clothing, etc., to players knocking balls over ; their respective signs. This is a cus- , tom in voeue in other cities and will J doiibtless be followed by enterprising | Gaffney merchants. Harris-Broom. On Sunday morning at 9 o’clock, at the home of Mr. and Mrs. L.
