It was given by Miss Willie Watt, com plimentary to her guests, Miss Florence Roberts nnd Miss Kittie Freeman, of Macon. The at tendance was very large, and the young ladies never appeared half so charming, nor were the young gentlemen ever so attentive and gallant. At 12 o’clock refreshments were served, after which the dancing was resumed and continued nntd the "wee sma' hours.” The favors were handsome, and every feature of the entertain ment was perfection. None added more to the charms of the occasion than the fair and fascinat ing young visitors. A large number of married couples were present uud did much to make the young people enjoy the entertainment. llusnell Count) to be Dry. The bill amending the charter of the Peabody school district in the matter of liquor license*bus passed both houses of the Alabama legislature, so that now the town authorities can fix the license at not less than $300 nor more than $1000 With the state license at $250 and the county license at $125 and the town license at the min imum, $300, it will cost each barkeeper in Girard $675 in licenses before he can begin business The only places in Russell county where liquor has been sold this year are Crawford and Girard. One barroom in the lorraor and three in the lat ter place have been run. The outlook is a little shady for the bar business in Russell in the fhture.

William was sitting in his house in front of the fire and Anderson shot him twice through a crack. The murderer succeeded m making his escape. Though both were married, they were payinsr their attentions to the same woman, and jealousy was the cause of the crime. In another part of this issue we present a large advertisement headed ‘‘The Giant of M edicines.” It goes without saying, that II II. Warner & Co. have educated the people of this country to the belief, which is rational and well founded, that a vast majority of human diseases originate in Im proper action of the kidneys and liver, that improper action allowing the blood to become filled with uric and lithic acids, or kidney and liver waste, which inflame and irritate all the or gans and thereby produces so many different diseases. Hence a remedy that will correct the false action of the kidneys nnd liver and neu tralize the acids of the system, very naturally cures all the diseases caused by this excess of acid iu the blood. At this holiday season no present would be more acceptable to any suffer ing friend than a case of a dozen bottles of the wonderfully effective Warner’s safe cure. The pi opr etors do not ask you to believe what they say, but frankly tell you to write to those whose testimonials are published and to ask your friends and neighbors what they think of this greut remedy. That shows how great is their confidence in the favor of the public, on which they reckon because of the merits of their prepa ration. gions. Its a wonderful show. If you don’t be lieve it, take the Itosc Hill car, go in for a dim a and come out satisfied. Fresh Celery To-day at J. T. Kavanagii’s. Furniture* at Auction To-Day.
