m is . r i a*! The Gaffney ' ■ A NKW8PAP4M IN ALL THAT THK WORN IMNLIBA ANN MVOTKO TO THI BEAT INTEREST OP THE PEOPLE OP CHEROKEE COUNTY. ESTABLISHED PEB. 16, 1894. QAPPNEY, S. C* TUESDAY, JANUARY 26, 1909. « SERIOUS LOSS TO VETEORN’S WIDOW THE LADY AN OBJECT WORTHY OF HELP. <• Loss of Mrs. Martin Darwin Greater Than at First Reported—State S. S. Association and Other News. Wilkinsville, Jan. 22.—In speaking of Mrs. Martin V. Darwin’s loss the other day we were not fully advised as to the extent of it. By private letter from a friend in her neighbor hood we learn it was a great deal worse than first reported. Mrs. Dar win is an estimable lady and is truly an object worthy the help of her - friends and acquaintances who should come to her relief at this trying mo ment. Her husband, Mr. M. V. Dar win, was a lieutenant in Company B. 12th S. C. regiment, and went through the war, being badly wounded. He died several years ago leaving bis widow with a large family of small children whom she has raised with credit and it’s due the Confederate veterans and their families who have been more fortunate to see that his widow in her old age is placed in reasonably comfortable circumstances now that she has sustained such a serious loss. Will they do it? She will appreciate any help sent her to Smyrna. Friends, get busy. You will never regret it. The widow’s mite with the widow’s spirit was an act of which the lowly Nazarene spoke in unmistakable language. Read, ponder, act. Some trappers are now on Thick- ety and Gilky creeks taking in the farmers’ pests and converting their furs to the farmers’ use. They have their headquarters in a bateau in which they follow the stream. Last summer the farmers along these gtreams suffered immensely from the musk rats cutting down the corn. In places they did as much damage as the floods. Mbse Tate, our colored Nimrod, caught a polecat last. Monday. It was the first of its kind ever caught in this section that we know of. Those who saw it say L was a most beauti ful animal. But its smell, oh, my! don’t mention it if you please. Mrs. J. N. Strain has been suffer ing with a neuralgia trouble occas ioned by a defective tooth which she went to Hickory Grove last Tuesday to have extracted. In this county lives a Mexican sol dier—a drummer boy. It is David Washington Owens, who lives on Thickety mountain. Mr. Owens tells us he was too young to carry a mus ket and went with the company that went from Chester county. His home was in Monroe, N. C., and he ran away and went with some others who left that part of his State. When they reached Charleston quite a num ber of those too young or too old or otherwise unfit for the service were sent back home but he being the drummer went on and came back af ter the war with the survivors. Only about fifteen of the company which left Chester returned. Mr. Owens was able to give quite a num ber of the names of men we knew who went from that county (then district). There were John and Gill Dunovant, Garland Smith, Jim Hard wick, Jim Hudson, Bill Lilley. Some of the Chisolms, and many others we have heard old people speak of. This correspondent, only five years old at that time remembers it well. They left Chester on foot and the first day 'they ate dinner at Aunt Nancy Meade’s, seven miles below Chester. We could hear the drum beat and along the road hundreds of people gathered to see them pass. Your correspondent took a big cry because he wasn’t able to go and see them but our oldest brother did. It was a grand day for old Chester when they left and a still grander one when only a few returned. The day they reached Chester from Mexico they had a big barbecue and thous ands of people were than to greet these old soldiers. Both as they went and returned they were greeted by the firing of cannon at the towns along the route. These were the men, or progenitors of the men, who General Winfield Scott said fifteen years later took Mm into the city of Mexico but kept him out of Richmond. Mrs. J. L. S. says she don’t know what the young generation would do if they had to spin the thread and knit their own stockings. Mr. Gist Reynolds passed here Tuesday with a cupboard. Some thing must be up, Gist. Those who have been on the public roads say they are in a terrible fix with mud. "Junebug” Thomson, colored, we are told, caught a fish out of Broad river last week that weighed twenty- one pounds. It was a whopper. Vaney Comer weighed it. The thirty-second annual convention of the State S. S. Association will be held in the city of Orangeburg, Feb ruary 16, 17, 18, 1909. In order to as sist the Sunday school workers of Cherokee who wish to attend, we give the letter of Mr. J. M. Way, general secretary: “Pelzer, S. C., Jan. 19th, 1909. “My Dear Friend:—I am perfectly delighted with your reply to my let ter concerning the delegation from /our county. You will please be sure to understand that I don’t mean to limit the delegation from your coun ty to yourself and four delegates, but wanted to be absolutely sure that you would attend the convention and bring not less than that number and I my idea in picking the number five was that we would have the member of the Stale executive committee and four good, leading Sunday school workers who would undertake to or ganize the county after ’ they get home from the convention. “I am enclosing blank credentials for the four delegates in question. 1 have provided a blank in the next issue of The Promoter which I am expecting to send out any day, and am only waiting for the printer to send it to the office. The blank in The Promoter can be clipped and used by any person who gets The Promoter. It requires the signature of 'the superintendent of the Sunday school or the pastor of the church. Be sure to have every delegate you appoint to write Mr. D. H. Marchant, Orangeburg, if they want a home as signed them and Instruct them to say that they have been regularly appoint ed and will have the regular creden tials. “In order that the representation may be evently distributed it is our purpose to ask that only one dele gate be sent from a school but in case your deviation from this rule would be the means of getting 'to the convention a man or vroman who would make a good county officer and help organize the county, why it will be all right to deviate from (the rule. “After today I will be in the office only two or three days between now and the convention and all letters should be addressed to Miss Leila B. Evans, Office Secretary, Pelzer, S. C. “With all good wishes, I am, “Very sincerely yours, "J. M. Way, “General Secretary.” The North Pacolet Convention will be entitled to four delegates and we hope to have them all there. We an glad to note the enthusiasm with wh.ch some of our lower Chero kee colored farmers have started in 'o do something worth doing this year. Keep it up boys. A prominent white gentleman w o has been watch ing, says it’s an inspiration to hear Uncle Jim Hardy, col ired, expostulate with the men of his color on the errors of the past. He has implicit child-like faith in better times com ing in case his ra?e shall help to bring them about by industry, econo my and wise management. J. L. S.‘ ‘ NEWS ITEMS OF LOCAL INTEREST. EVENTS IN GAFFNEY AND CHER OKEE. KILLED BY HIS COUSIN. “Unloaded” Gun Responeble For Death of Fletcher Scruggs. Cliffside, N. C., Jan. 24.—Yesterday afternoon about 4 o'clock Boss Scruggs, son of Elbert Scruggs, f> tally shot Fletcher Scruggs. These young men were cousins, aged res pectively 21 and 19 years. Boss told Fletcher if he said it again he would shoot him. Fletcher repeated the word and was immediately shot by Boss, who used a 32-calibre pistol, the bullet taking effect in his right side just below the ribs. Boss mount ed a mule and hurried to Cliffside, a mile distant, summoned Dr. B. M. Hay nes, who gave the case immediate at tention; but it was too late, as the young man died about 10 p. m. with out making a statement, as far as can be learned. Boss says that “he didn’t know it was loaded” and that the shooting was accidental. No ar rest has been made. Fletcher Scruggs’ body was inter red at the Scruggs family cemetery this afternoon at. 3 o’clock. An Enjoyable Dance. A most delightful dance was given last Thursday night by the young people of the city at the dance hall. The dance was informal and a suc cess in every feature. The music was furnished by an Italian orchestra en tour, which deserves much credit for the splendid music furnished for the occasion. The following arc those who attended: Misses Jessie Lipscomb, Lucy Car penter, Sadie Lipscomb, Sarah Car penter, Fannie Hopper, Lila Sarratt, Irene Wheat. Floy Sarratt, Wilma Gaffney, Myrtle Littlejohn, Pablita Goi’iam. Mrs. J. B. Snead, Mrs. Chad wick and Mrs. Clarence Sullivan, Messrs.

Hamrick, a well-known baseball player, his reputation having been made while a student at Wake Forest College, has been sold by the Mobile Club in the Southern League to the Columbus, Ga., team in the South Atlantac League. Hamrick was drafted by Mobile a few weeks ago, being secured from the Chester aggregation In the South Carolina State League. He is a popular ball player and his friends are predicting a successful career in the higher company to which he has been drawn.” A New “Trade-Mark.” The express cars on all the South ern’s southbound trains that have the service, are pretty well laden with whiskey packages these days. It Is a rare occui < ence, too, that they pass Gaffney without unloading a portion of their liquid freight. Where the name “Salisbury” was a familiar sight before and during the Christ mas holidays, “Richmond” Is now the trade-mark that Indexes the na ture and quality of the contents of the little pasteboard packages. Recent Happenings In and Around the City and Other Events Gath ered by the Local News Editor. Cotton brought 9.60 on the local market yesterday. A few bales were sold. On February 3, there will be held in Yorkville, a competitive examina tion for a cadetship In Annapolis. Services were held Sunday at the Lime&one Baptist church, near Lime stone College: The attendance was very good. The next regular meeting of the Thimble Club will be a strictly busi ness medUng and will be held with Mrs. S. B. Sherard Friday afternoon, January 29th. It Is hoped all mem bers will be present. The stewards of Gaffney Circuit are requested to meet at the resi dence of the undersigned on Satur day, January 30th at 11 a. m. for the purpose of making assessments for present year. T. B. Owen, P. C. Messrs. S. B. Crawley & Co. have inaugurated a new departure in the drug business. Hereafter they will keep their place of business closed on Sunday, and will not open It ex cept for the purpose of filling pre- criptions. Mr. Howad A. Gaffney, a former Gaffneyite now doing business In Union, spent Sunday and yesterday in the city with his parents, Capt. and Mrs. R. M. Gaffney, on Lime- d.one street. He says there is a reg ular Gaffney colony in Union. Stinday was an ideal day and all the churches in the city had large congregations. The strollers, too, were out in full force in the afternoon and “the college" seemed to be the mecca for which they were headed— especially the male element. Mr. E. S. McKown, the new coun ty superintendent of education will be in his office every day until he be gins to visit the schools in_ the coun ty when he will be in his office three days of the week. Mr. McKown says it is his purpose to devote his entire time to the duties of the office to which he has been elected. There will be services at the Pres byterian church next Sunday morn ing and evening. Rev. Donald W. Richardson, of Greer, will preach. This announcement should be suffi cient to Insure a large congregation, as Mr. Richardson is one of the ablest young divines In this country. The first of last week Alderman W. O. Johnson went out hunting. He had shot one barrel of his gun and while in the act of re loading, the other barrel was discharged, a full load of bird shot entering his highly- prized dog, which was a few yards off. The dog is in a fl|ir way to re cover. % The management of the Limestone mills have let the contract for the erection of four new houses for their help. The same management have contracted for the building of four additional houses for the Hapirick Mills. The Hamrick Mills is the new est enterprise for Gaffney; but is making money for its stockholders already and bids fair to become one of the best paying mill propositions in the State. Mr. George M. Phifer, who pur chased the Dudley Jones place, on Limestone street, has workmen art work tearing away part of the old house. He will roll the remainder on the upperside of the lot next to Mr. Johnson, remodel and add to it. When completed he will have one of i the prettiest homes in the city, i Later on he expects to build a hand-! some residence on the old site. Mr. J. G. Bramlet has the contract. Unfortunately for Gaffney, when; the last census was taken, an epldi-; mlc of small pox was raging among the mill population, and largo num-! hers the inhabitants of the mill vil- lages had left town, in consequence of ; which the official count gave us less J than four thousand. A few weeks | before this the town employed a i ve.y careful man to take the census j and his count showed our population i to be a little under six thousand. We i are confident that the next census' will give us at least seven thousand people as our population has largely increased since 1900. SELECTING POSTOFFICE SITE. Mr. Fred Brackett Has Been in the City Several Days on That Mission. Mr. Fred Brackett, of the Treas ury Department, has been in the city since Saturday looking over the sites offered for the new $50,000 postoffice building which is to be erected in this city by the government. MV. Brackett, who is a native of Maine, has been in the service, in some ca pacity, since 1861. He is a tall “down-easter,” with blue eyes, and a gray Burnside beard. When The Ledger man called on him at Parish’s Hotel yesterday he talked freely about everything except the exact location of the postffice. Among other things Mr. Brackett said: “Gaffney is the best situated town I have seen in South Carolina. It has the best natural drainage, and the soil is splendid. With the installa tion of your sewerage system, the building of some good sidewalks and some improvements in your streets you will have an ideal little city. I can give out nothing as to the post- office site. I simply recommend ser- eral of the sites submitted—those which in my judgment will suit the purpose best—to the treasury de partment. The secretary of the treasury approves or disapproves of mV recommendations. He has the selection of the site and it wilj take from sixty to ninety days for him to reach a decision. The government requires a forty-foot fire limit—that is, the building must not be within forty feet of any other building. We try to select sites with a view of ac commodating the business and resi dential population of the city, and try to get within forty rods, or 660 feet of the depot.” We found Mr. Brackett a most agreeable gentleman; and he is thoroughly acquainted with his busi ness. He leaves this morning for Washington.

Better Service Now. Mr. J. T. Hames, of Asbury, was among the prominent Cherokeeans in the city Saturday. He favored The Ledger with a call while in town, and took occasion to remark upon the new telephone line that has recently been put up through his section. He said that the conditions which at first were a source of complaint from many of the subscribers, were now much better, and that the service was generally satisfactory, with the possible exception of bad connections occasionally, or a weak current, which patrons of the system in all directions often have to contend with.

Since The Ledger knows the mag net that attracted this young gallant the wonder is that he ever went back 'co Spartanburg. If The Herald knew as much as we do abotfc the case it would approve of the incident. Saturday Amusements. There was a large crowd in town Saturday afternoon, and the streets of the city presented quite a lively appearance. On the small vacant lot between Doggett’s “Hole in the Wall” and the railroad Mr. Ellie Par ker was entertaining a good crowd of onlookers with some stunts in a walking-game, most of them evinced plenty of interest in the pro ceedings but not much • dough, the object for which this particular amusement was gotten up. The ex hibition consisted of a small frame 'with an opening in the middle, oe> tween two upright bars, to one of which a small alarm bell was at tached, stationed some twenty or thirty steps from the sidewidk, and the feat to be accomplished was to walk blindfolded from the street to and through this opening without ringing the bell, which was so con structed that it would set up an alarm if either of the upright bars were touched. The one performing the feat got a prize of twenty-five cents; and it is needless to say that there were not many such prizes won. Another source of amusement for the small boy, but more of pathos for some of the older ones, was a blind man with a hand-organ, from which he ground out what was intended for music, but fell far short of the origi nal intention, to which he sang an ac companiment. His contributions were likewise scarce. SOCIETY WOMEN. Mr J. F. Whisnant was in Gaffney, Some Spend Hundreds of Dollars a yesterday on business j Y ear on Their Hair.

Darwin, who owned a blooded colt, discovered that the animal was suf fering from a very severe attack of tetanus. The animal was valued very highly, and everything possible was done for its relief, but all efforts were in vain. He finally gave up and notified the bystanders, among whom was Mr. Derbin Jones, who asked: "Doctor, as you have given the ani-, mal up, will you give her to me?” “Certainly,” said Dr. Darwin, “you may have her.” Mr. Jones at once secured a wag on and hauled the colt to his house and used such treatment that she has almost entirely recovered, an* Mr. Jones said the other day, that he would not take less than $150 for the animal, and she is only nine months old.
