It is proposed to organize a "Talking

On Thursday night, April 12th, Squire
John Ray shot and killed a mad dog in his
yard. His own dogs were locked up. He
says he could not find out who the (log be
longed to that he killed. But he was evi
dently rabid.
It does look like premeditated negli
gence on the part of the City Council not
to buiid a small foot-bridge at the double
branches between town and Midway. The
school chii iren, coming and going, have
to take to the water, high or low, as the
case may be. And even grown persons
have to wade the branch sometimes.
Put up a plank crossing anyhow.
Katie Putnam.—This charming actress
will appear at Brake’s Opera House next
Thursday evening, April 19th. She is one
of the brightest and deservedly most pop
ular of American actresses. Her person
ations of “Little Nell” and the “Marchion
ess” have won for her a celebrity as wide
as the Union. Wherever she goes she is
welcomed bv large and enthusiastic au
diences. The people of Milledgeville have
an opportunity now to enjoy a rare treat,
and accord to a meritorious actress and
clever woman the meed of praiso due' to
talent and personal beauty.
Mrs. Mapp will take pleasure in showing
you her pretty Hats whether you want to
purchase or not.
Bosco.—This famous Magician and king
of Legerdemain gave an entertainment
to a good audience at Brake’s Opera
House last night and will perform to-night
and Wednesday night. He is simply con
summate in his skill and tricks. He will
give every person who goes full value
and more for all he pays to see the show.
He gives many valuable presents to per
sons in the audience who hold the lucky
numbers. Fifty cents will take you to
to the show, and give you two chances at
some very valuable presents. Go bv all
means, and carry the children. The little
ones will be delighted.
Mrs. Mapp will receive to-morrow a new
lot of ladies and Misses 1’okoHats in cheap
straw.

Mr. Gideon Ilolsey told us iast Saturday,
that live years ago, he asked a merchant in
this city to credit him for two gallons of
syrup, and the merchant replied, “no sir.”
He went home with his pride wounded, but
said to himself that he would raise his
own syrup, and the next season he made
75 gallons of sorghum syrup, and he has
made his 6yrup every"year 8ince, only
now he makes a splendid article from rib
bon cane. So the refusal of credit resulted
to his advantage. He does not lind fault
with the merchants for refusing credit.
Too much credit is what ruins the farmer.

DEATH OF A CADET.
Cadet Charles R. Walton of Burke
county, died iast Thursday night, at the
residence of Dr. Sims, after an illness of
about two weeks, of Pneumonia. He was
17 years of age, and entered ttie Middle
Georgia College last Fall. He was, at that
time, in feeble health, but improved rapid
ly, and had gained twenty pounds in
weight, when he was stricken dawn with
pneumonia, a disease whicli has been un
usually prevalent the past winter, all over
the country, and very fatal. His parents
were promptly informed of his dangerous
illness, and came to ids bedside—his moth
er remaining with him until death reliev
ed him of his great suffering. On Friday,
his remains were taken to his home for
burial. The college was closed for the day
and tho President and Professors accom
panied the remains to the depot, under
the escort of the Cadet corps-rMaj. Kenan
commanding. A detachment of Cadets,
under Capt. Mathis, went with tho remains
to Burke county. This Is the lirst death
that has occurred among the Cadets Since
the organization or the college. The par
ents have the sympathy of this communi
ty in the loss of their only son, upon whom
was centered their fondest hopes.
LIST OF ADVERTISED LETTERS

MILLINERY.
As per announcement in the Union A Re
corder iast Tuesday, the Millinery estab
lishments of Mrs. F. B. Mapp, and Mrs. S.
D. Wootten had their Spring Openings,
the former on the 12th and 13th of April,
the latter on the 13th and 14th. W T e visited
both for a short while and took in the
beautiful things that females wear, from
a baby’s tidy to a woman’s—well,whatsho
mos.t desires; but we wish we may be kill
ed if we could, ten minutes after leaving
the store, call oyer correctly tho names of
any hair dozen articles we saw. The fact
is, when a man gets into a Millinery store,
he is as much out of place as a big hull
would be in a crockery store—he is lost
in the mazes of millinery; and he is afraid
to ask any questions for fear of blunder
ing into forbidden territory. It might be
Crushed Strawberry, or Bruised Blackber
ry, or Shrimp Pink, or Nun’s Veiling,or
Princess Polonaise—but then it might be
one of those lovely things next to a wom
an’s heart. Pshaw! men haven’t got any
bnsiness to know anything about such
things, no how.
The weather was beautiful, and the la
dies were out in great numbers. We nev
er saw such perfect artilicial flowers, or
such beautiful ladies hats. At Mrs. Mapp’s
wo tried to select one, and had to give up
the game, because every other one was
our favorite.
Miss Katie Putnam will play-, “Lena,
the Madcap,” Thursday night.
Snend 23 cents and save $1. A box of
Gilder’s Liver Pills prevent a doctor’s

Characteristic.
Stephens’ great characteristic was to ac
complish what he set out to do. The samo
may be said of Brewer’s Lung Restorer.
Courtship
Cannot be carried on with much pleasure
or success if you are coughing all the time.
Brewer’s Lung Restorer will prevent this
troublo.
A Rig Failure.
We have jast learned that a merchant
well known to many of us failed to
take Brewer’s Lung Restorer and is now
confined’to liisbed with severelung troub
les.
Church Notice*.
Those who attend services are reques
ted to take a little Brewer’s Lung Re
storer before leaving home so as not to
distuib tiie congregation with constant
coughing.
Coroner’s Inquest.
“Died a natural death.” We often see
this verdict, but if tho truth were known
the verdict would bo: “Died from neg
lect to take Brewer’s Lung Restorer in
time.”
"It is amusing to see other cough reme
dies take a back seat when Brewer’s Lung
Restorer steps in.
Spreading Rapidly.
News was received to-day in Macon that
Brewer’s Lung Restorer was “spreading
itself” everywhere. “It is well.”
Music anil Dancing
will bo much engaged in during the next
two months. Brewer’s Lung Restorer will
also have a run during that time.
Drummer Roys.
Many of them never leave tho city with
out a bottle of Brewer’s Lung Restorer in
their pockets. They know a tiling or two,
you bet.
Measles.
There is not a house in Macon lout has a
case of measles. There is not a homo in
the city but has a bottle of Brewer’s Lung
Restorer. It is not good for measles, but
it is a stand-by for coughs, bronchitis,
etc.
Thin young ladles should uso a bottle or
two of Brewer’s Lung Restorer. Our word
for it, each bottle will add ten pounds to
their weight. Yet, strange to say, it does
not increase the flesh of those already
fleshy.
