MADDOX IN CALHOUN
Seven or Eight Hundred People
Heard Him
GORDON IS COMING OUI STRONG
Win Puli a Many Vote cf Democracy On the
Vloal Day Otlhe M.inorab e
Contest.
Parties visiting the city from Calhoun
report that Hon. John AV. Maddox was
greeted by a great crowd there.
Seven or eight hundred of the honest
voters of Gordon county had assembled
to greet the distinguished gentleman and
his speech was a ringing and forcible
appeal for democracy.
Gordon is coming out strong for Mad
dox and Bryan on November 3.
Since Colonel Rankin has withdrawn
the sentiment of people of that section
has grown even stronger than before.
He will carry that county by a rousing
majority.
The people are becoming thoroughly
aroused to the demands of the day ana
they will turn out in full on election day
and cast their votes for democracy and
honest government.

THE SPECTATOR.
It is hardly necessary to remind any
boy or girl tomorrow night is Hal
loween. For Halloween has been a
night of fun for the young folk for
many hundreds of years.
The old fashioned boy played all
soits of amusing games to celebrate
the night, including bobbing for ap
pies in a tub of water and walking
backward down the cellar stairs, car
rying a looking-glass, both of which
are familiar to the boys and girls to
day. In nearly all of the old games
water played an important part, and
the more boys who fell into it the
higher ran the fun. If some of the
quaint old accounts aie true there
must have been a good many dripping
players before the mystic hour of 12
was struck.
.In the fading, ripening, mellow,
Yellow season of the zone,
One can hear the rasping ‘•hello!”
Bellow through the tingling ’phone;
And as sobbing winds are sighing,
Crying winter’s coming woes.
With the message he is hying,
Buying heavy underclothes.
A Nebraska man was shown “the
e'ephant” in Chicago the other day
by two smoothe strangers and was
fleeced of eleven hundred “plunks.”

Tell me, ye wandering winds

The first cocktails were mixed by
Mrs. Elizabeth Flanagan in the little
hotel at the Four Corners, between
Tarrytown and White Plains, in New
York in the year 1779; and the fizst to
er joy them were the French officers
and soldiers quartered in that neigh
borhood in those good old days of the
Franco American alliance.
Some of our English friends who
have been discussing this enlivening
subject fall into a serious blunder.
They say that the quill or feather
plucked from the tail of a rooster was
used in drinking it. Hence its name.
Evidently the ignorant English do not
know the difference betweenU cock
tail and a mint julep. When the
Frenchmen learn the art thoroughly,
the famous elixir may perhaps ap
pear at official banquets, and Presi
dent Faure himself may yet be able to
rise and offer the following glorious
toast:
“Je leve n*a queue de coq et je bois
ala sante de la Czarina et a la me
moire de Betsy Flanagan!”

It’s the best thing for.the
hair under all circumstances.
Just as no man by taking
thought can add an inch to
his stature, so no preparation
can make hair. The utmost
that can be done is to pro
mote conditions favorable to
growth. This is done by
Ayer’s Hair Vigdr. It re
moves dandruff, cleanses the
scalp, nourishes the soil in
which the hair grows, and,
just as a desert will blossom
under rain, so bald heads grow
hair, when the roots are nour
ished. But the roots must be
there. If you wish your hair
to retain its normal color, or
if you wish to i estore the lost
tint of gray or faded hair use

TOPICS OF THE TOWN.
Short Stories and Select Gos Ip Caught on
the Run.
That foolish canine bayed
At the zephyr in a gay,
Semi-idiotic way,
Then that zephyr in about
Half a jiffy, took that pup,
Tipped him over wrong side up;
Then it turned him wrong side out
And it calmly journeyed thence,
With a barn and string of fence,
The chill of coining winter sweeps
over the hills and its hoary curtains
are gathering along the fringe of
leaded sky and vanished woods.
Winter withits sleet and snow and
dreary days is surely’coming, but we
do not await it with the dread that
different circumstances would evoke.
There is rich plenty in all the land
and golden promise smiles in every
flitting vision of the future. Every
sunbrowned hill side is rich in store
of nuts and fruits of all kinds, the
plains and valleys are gorgeous in
their burdens of fruitful products and
the home is rich with its wonderful
productions of loving and patient
hands.
All over this great land the barns
and smoke houses are full to overflow
ing with abundant supplies of home
productions and the fields are yet rich
with ungarnered crops.
In town the condition of affairs is
equally promising. Every person who
will is at work, and there is always
happiness and prosperity in labor.
Let stubborn winter shake his giant
head till the chilly frosts fall in
gloomy showers from his hoary locks
and his unkind breath smite the
blooming earth and chills our blood.
The cheerful flames from a thousand
happy firesides will greet him with a
smile and a song.
The people who think they have a
right to say what should and what
should not go in the paper, are legion.
Those who imagine that things are
meant for them when nobody dreamed
of them and their affairs when the ar
ticle was written, are generally self
important folks who imagine that the
world is perfectly absorbed in con
templating them and their unintere
esting private affairs.
Au acquaintance met Horace Greely
one day and said:
“Mr. Gredly, I’ve stopped your pa
per. ” “Have you?” said Horace,
‘•well, that’s too bad,” and the old
white hat went its way.
The next morning Greely met his
subscriber again, and said: ‘‘l thought
you had stopped The Tribune?” “So I
did.” “Then there must be some mis
take,’’ said Horace, “for I just came
from the office, and the presses were
running, the clerks were as busy as
ever, the compositors were hard at
work, and the business was going on
the same as yesterday and the day
before,” “Oh!” ejaculated the sub
scriber, “1 didn’t mean that I had
stopped the paper, 1 stopped only my
copy of it because I didn’t like your
editorials,” “Pshaw!” retorted
Greely, “it wasn’t worth my time to
tell me such a trifle as that. ;My dear
sir, if you expect to control the utter
ances of the Tribune by the purchase
of one copy a day, or if you thinK to
find any newspaper worth reading
that will never express convictions at
right angles with your own. you are
doomed to disappointment.”
