The Dailey Quartette at Limestone
College.
The Dailey Quartette of Philadel
phia, a famous concert company will
be the attraction in the Limestone
College auditorium this evening.
This attraction will be the first musi
cal attraction of the year in the city
and music lovers of the city will no
doubt flock in numbers to the college.
Prof. Harold Loring. musical direc
tor of Limestone College, speaks of
the entertainment in glowing terms
and the following in wgard to the
performers and their program will
give an idea of the excellence of the
music to be furnished;
Prof. J. D. Dailey, manager and
basso of quartette, is a composer, j
author and soloist of national reputa- |
tion. whose P<»-nis and musical com- S
positions, both vocal and instrumen- |
tal, are heard in all States and
abroad. As a teacher none excells,
rs a chorus director few' equal.
Miss Margaret E. Dailey has a clear |
soprano voice of wonderously wide
range. Sympathetic, yet strikingly
forceful in bravura passage. A cor- i
root and pleasing style and fine per
sonal appearance combine to make
her work highly enjoyable.
Mr. W. Carlyle Dailey, the tenor, j
lias a voice of marvelous compass •
and goodly fullness. The ease and j
accuracy with which he renders that
difficult solo from Opera Carman |
"The Toreador.” and the Aria from ;
Elijah, "If With all Your Hearts,” ;
shows culture of a high degree.
Miss Susie .To.s"phine Dailey lias a
splendidly cultivated contralto voice'
of rare beamy, and sings delightfully.
She is also the pianiste of the quar-
t'-tte. Her repertoire includes selee-
■ ions from Beethoven, Bach, Reuhen-
toin, Chopin. Mozart, Greig. McDow-
i H and Chaminade. Her solo playing
<!i plays fine technique, combined
v a a sense of delicacy and refined

Gaffney Milliners Display Their New
Hats for the Season.
This has been a week of delight for
ladles in Gaffney. The various milli
nery shops have had their display of
Fall and Winter hats and hundreds
of ladies of the city and countv have
inspected and tried on countless times
the different hats.
The weather has been somewhat In
clement but most of the ladles have
managed to get out to the various
openings. And now and then could
he seen some poor man being dragged
in to see the particular hat admired
bv his better half, and he, of course,
had to go into raptures and say he
admired it, when, to tell the truth, he
didn’t know the front from the hack’
and whether it was becoming or not.
A man in a millinery shop surrounded
by a horde of women all talking hats
at the same time feels mighty like
thirty cents—and he will sure enough |
feel like thirty cents when the first of j
the month rolls ’round again.
The principle hats shown this sea- \
son are the cute little Peter Pan, the
Mushroom shape, the Romeo shape, j
the Gainesborough, and the Gage hats, j
and the leading colors are brown, red j
and grey. Black .and white are shown j
very strong also. Very large “cab
bage” roses, sweeping plumes, cope
feathers and grapes seem to be the I
favorite decorations.
Mrs. W. X. Austell had her hats on |
display Monday -'vening, Tuesday and
Wednesday. Mrs. Austell. Mrs. Tur

Notes from Grindal.
Grindall. Oct. 2.—Since writing our
last letter to The Ledger we have
seen a rare old piece of china, which
is about a hundred and forty or fifty
years old. which we will write up
later. This piece—a saucer—belongs
to Miss Fannie Littlejohn, of Asbury,
and is an heirloom, and has an inter
esting history. Doubtless this is the
oldest piece of clUna In Cherokee
county.
Although it Is rather late to do so,
w e wish to extend to Mr. Tom Wood’s
family our heartfelt sympathy. The
noblest example of Mr. Wood’s life
is th'* * * fine family he leaves behind.
We know them all well, having gone
to school with them, from the eldest
to the youngest, and if at at any time
during the time we have know them
any one of them ever wounded our
feelings we have no recollection of it.
We had the pleasure of attending
the services at Elbethel Sunday. We
didn’t go prepared to spend the dav
hut through the hospitality of Mrs.
D. B. Hughes, of Gowdoysvilie. and
Mrs. John Foster, of Asbury, we fared
sumptousiy at dinner, thus being able
to remain and enjoy the discourse by
Rev. Dr. Simms, of Gaffney. But the
day was not destined to close for us
without an accident. On returning
home and just after crossing Mud
Ford bridge, our mule, which had
been chaffing with impatience, be-1
came enraged at a fly and for a few
moments fairly kicked things black [
and blue and w-ell nigh scared us out i
of our wits. Well, one never knows
ie- many friends he lias until some-
CIDER UNDER THE BAN.
Charlotte Council Puts Prohibition
Tax on These Drinks.
Charlotte, N. C., Oct. 3.—The board
of aldermen at their regular monthly
meeting this week passed a prohibi
tive tax ordinance upon the sale of
all sorts of ciders, including cherry,
orange, etc.
Under the new ruling those who
deal in th e so-called soft drinks will
have to pay an annual license of
$1,000, and for every violation of the
law they will be fined not more than
$.}0. The new ordinance will become
effective on ihe first of November.
For some time the police have ex
perienced a great deal of trouble
with tite drunks arising from these
sources; these alleged soft drinks
being claimed by the aldermen to
contain from four per cent alcohol up
to ten. A numbi

Government Witness Frightened
From Spartanburg.
Spartanburg, Oct. 2.—At the re
quest of Solicitor T. S Sease, Gover
nor Heyward today offered a reward
of .$75 for Harriet Hoburn. alias Har
riet Poburn, to be produced as a
State's witness in the Spartanburg
case of the State vs. Ollie Ponder and
Lum West, charged with assault and
battery with intent to kill.
The solicitor says in his letter to
Governor Heyward:
“The woman was last heard of in
Lancaster county. We tried the case
last week, but made a mistrial. If
we get this woman we can get a con
viction. This woman has been fright
ened away. Our deputy sheriff talked
with a man in Lancaster county who
heard the woman sav that Ponder and
West had shot at her and threatened
to kill her if she did not leave. I
think this case should be prosecuted
to the fullest extent.”

New Mithodist Church.
Greenville. Oct. 2.—The opening of
I the new Hampton avenue Methodist
church was celebrated tonight with
j what was called a first birthday ser-
| vice. After six years of earnest work
this little band of Christians, which
has within recent times grown into
n self-sustaining, vigorous congrega
tion. realized its fondest dream. It
met together and worshipped under
its own roof and within the walls of
a handsome little church building,
modern in all its appointments.
The celebration tonight was pre
sided over by the pastor, Rev. Archie
E. Rriggers. By special invitation,
Rev. J. W. Spoake, of Charleston, was
present and took part in the exercis
es. The church has been erected and
furnished at a cost of $7,000 The
membership of the church has in
creased during the past year from 100
to 100.
more than a certain price by the
pound. Give ’em bone; that's right;
give ’em plenty of bone!
There are people who won't pay
more than $1.50 a gallon for paint;
give ’em bone! *
There’s no better school than f, x-
perience; cost Is high; but the les-
! son is never forgotten.
Let a man paint two houses alike,
same size; one Dovoe. the other that
$1.50 paint. He buys 10 gallons of
each, and pays $3 a day for labor—$3
a gallon, easier reckoning.
He has to buy two gallons more of
the $1.50 paint; and has two gallons
left of Devoe: 12 gallons $1.50. $18;
18 gallons $1.73, $14; $i more for
“cheap” painf.
He pays $3 a gallon for painting:
18 gallons $21; 12 gallons $30; $12
j more for painting "cheap” paint,
j He’ll buy the less-gallons paint af
ter that. If people are slow to learn,
it's because they keep-on buying boue-
