ENQUIRER-SON: COLUMBUS, GEORGIA, SUNDAY, OCTOBER 5, 1890.

CAUGHT ON THE FLY
A M) PERTINENTLY paragraphed by
enterprising reporters.

asent at Columbus for the Pennsylvania
fire Insurance Company.
—The quarterly term of the City Court
nill convene at 10 o’clock Monday mom-
inc. Judge Willis will preside.
—The regular monthly term of the
Court of Ordinary will be held Monday.
j ni lj:e Pou will convene the Court at io
o'clock.
—The regular monthly meeting of the
County Commissioners was held yesterday,
and orders to the amount of about $1,500
were granted.
The handsome page advertisement in
today's issue announcing the autumnal re
ception of Moore Bros, will be read with
interest.
The chain gang force has put the river
road from the county line to the city in
good condition. The Douglass bridge on
this road has also been repaired. The
chain gang force, under overseer Patillo,
is now"twenty strong.
—Mr. and Mrs. H. D. Stratton are re
ceiving congratulations on the arrival of a
daughter, bom Saturday morning at 3
o'clock, at their apartments in the Rankin
House. Mother and child are both doing
finely.
—Bishop Becker arrived yesterday and
will preach at the Church of the Holy
Family at 10 o’clock mass today. This
is Bishop Becker's second visit to Colum-
qus, and he is very popular with his church
here. It is likely that an immense con
gregation will go out to hear the sermon
this morning.
—Mrs. Alley, of Chattanooga, formerly
Miss Laura Johnson, of Mobile, will sing
in the choir at the First Baptist church
today. Mrs. Alley is well known and
greatly admired in Columbus. She has
voice of rare sweetness and power, and her
old friends here will be glad of an oppor
tunity of hearing her sing again.
—During the fall and winter there will
lie a series of excursions of Eastern capi
talists to the expositions in the South,
with a view of investing, and Marion never
did a wiser thing than when she decided to
make a display at the Chattahoochee Val
ley Exposition. These capitalists will in
vest where the greatest advantages and in
ducements are offered, and Marion’s dis
play should be full and complete.—Marion
County Patriot.
—The LaGrange Reporter says: “The
Chattahoochee Valley Exposition, which
opens at Columbus November 5th, cover
ing ten days, will have many attractions.
Among them will be balloon ascensions
and parachute leaps, fire works, boat
races, and a chrysanthemum show. There
■will also be special days for the Grangers,
the Alliance, Confederate Veterans, Drum
mers, and Red Men. In addition to these,
there will be a grand military parade aud
contest. Liberal premiums are offered for
county exhibits.
—As will be seen by an advertisement
in another column, Mr. G. E. Gager, who
has been engaged in the grocery business
in this city for the past twenty years, has
sold out to Alderman W. E. Marcrum and
will retire from active business. Mr. Ga
ger has amassed a considerable fortune,
and for years has done a large business.
His successor, Mr.Marcrum, is an energet
ic, popular young man, and will no doubt
prove a worthy business successor to Mr.
Gager.
—Mrs. J. W. Smith entertained a few
friends last Thursday at a 5 o’clock tea,
complimentary to her charming sister,
Mrs. Toombs Crawford, of Columbus.
There is no one that entertains more de
lightfully than Mrs. Smith, and on this
occasion her tea was dainty and beautiful.
The guests were Mrs. Toombs Crawford,
Mrs. J. IV. Roberts, Mrs. J. W. Bailey.
Mrs. W. H. Evans, Mrs. R. C. Little, Mrs.
R. T. Brown, Mrs. J. G. Dunlap, Mrs. P.
P. Jennings, Mis. J. A. Smith, Mrs. E. P.
Chambers, Mrs. A. Rudolph.—Gainesville
Eagle.
BREAKFAST TABLE CHAT.
“The Twelve Temptations.”—Wm.
J. Gilmore’s magnificent new spectacle,
“The Twelve Temptations,” is to be pre
sented at Springer Opera House Tuesday
evening. The present season is to be de
voted to the “Second Edition” of this gor
geous spectacle, which means that an en
tirely new scenery has been specially pre
pared, a number of trick scenes invented,
with newly imported specialties, also pre
miers and the largest corps of dancers ever
seen in one organization. The piece will
also have the advantage of a carefully se
lected dramatic company; also, the best
pantomimic artists that can be secured.
Mr. Gilmore, who is very progressive, has
spared neither pains nor expense in this
season’s production, which will be notable
for no less than a dozen of novelties. The
costumes have all been designed by Baron
de Grimm, and in money value represents
a small fortune, while the scenery is said
to exceed in richness that which was shown
last season, which is saying a great deal.
Sixty-seven people form the numerical
strength of the company^ which uses for
its transportation a special train of three
sixty-feet cars.
GOSSIP ABOUT HOME FOLKS AND STRAN
GERS.
Mr. E. W. Loveless, of the Troy En
quirer-Herald, spent yesterday in the city.
Mr. H. C. Hanson and family have gone
to Atlanta, where they will reside in

Savannah and Atlantic railroad, was

Mrs. Fort’s on Union street.—Brunswick
Times.
Dr. Carlisle Terry and wife and Mrs. I.

having spent the summer very pleasantly
at Asbury Park, N. J.
Col. John B. Gorman, one of the most
affable and pleasant gentlemen in Georgia,
visited the Exposition buildings yesterday
and selected space for the Talbot county
exhibit. Col. Gorman says the grand old
county of Talbot is going to outdo herself
this year. Her exhibit will certainly be a
magnificent one. Col. Gorman was cjjm-
pletely captivated by the beautiful flowers
at the park yesterday, and fairly went into
raptures over them.
Capt. R. E. Fort, of Harris, was also at
the park yesterday, and selected space for
the Harris exhibit. Capt. Fort says his
people are thoroughly in earnest about
their exhibit, and the indications are that
the display will be one of the finest and
most attractive ever seen at a Southern
exposition.
If the weather is pleasant today, a large
number of Columbus people will go down
to Exposition Park to see the flowers.
They are lovely and well worth a trip to
the park.
Mr. G. B. Hiett, the proprietor of the
Steam Plant and Plumbing Works of Co
lumbus, was awarded the contract for the
second battery of the water works pump
ing machinery of Talladega, Ala., as the
first change from plunger to direct piston
pump, made by Mr. Hiett, was a perfect
success. This change has been a great
improvement on pumping machinery. Mr.
Hiett is an expert in this line of work.
Bright/p Disease.
This insidious ailment, if too long neg
lected, will undermine the strongest con

of the urinary and digestive organs, B. B.
B. (Botanic Blood Balm.)
David Runkel, Cullman, Ga., writes: “I
used a hundred dollar^ worth of medicine
for Bright’s disease, but it did me no good.
I then took B. B. B., which relieved me.
My appetite is restored and I urinate with
out pain.”
J. A. Maddox, Atlanta, Ga., writes: “I
had great trouble in passing urine, which
was filled with sediments. My back and
loins gave me much pain and I lost my ap
petite, strength and flesh. I became nerv-
ous and unable to sleep soundly. Two
bottles of B. B. B. gave me entire relief.”
Thomas Williams, Soddy, Tenn., writes,
“I was troubled with severe kidney com
plaint and confined to my bed. Six bot
tles of B. B. B. made a well man of me.”

Milton, Fla. This is to certify that I have
been afflicted with Scrofula, or Blood Poison, for
a number of years. The best physicians ot Mo
bile and this city said nothing c >uld be done for
me. 1 also took a 1 »rge quantity of , but
found no relief in anything that I took. My
limbs were a mass of ulcers, and when 1 was sent
to a physician in Mobile my entire body was a
mass of sores. I had given up all hope, and as a
last resort tried P P.P. <Pricklv Ash, PokeR ’Ot
and Potassium), and after using four bottles
(small size) the sores have entirely disappeared,
and my general health was never better than at
the present time, and people that know me think
it a wonderful cure. Respectfully.

A Stroll llirough a Palace of loveliness.
It was the pleasure of a reporter yester
day to take a stroll through the palatial
carriage, buggy and wagon emporium of
Messrs. Williams, Bullock & Co., and look
with open-eyed wonder at the scores of
beautiful vehicles exhibited therein. The
reporter happened in just in the nick of
time, for the enterprising firm had just re
ceived a lot of fifty Hamilton buggies,
which were as handsome as could be.
This firm make a specialty of this make of
buggies, and have never yet heard a word
of complaint against them. They also sell
other celebrated makes. They are leaders

special instruments are superb, and it is
well worth any one’s time to stop and see

Company, Columbus. Ga. Dear Sirs: In reply
to yours of the 2 >th, I beg to say that we enclose
check in payment for shipment made us on guar
antee that your medicine would do all you
claimed for it.
My little boy, two and a half years old, had a
bad case of eczema. His whole body, legs, arms
aud head, were a mass of sores. We had Nash
ville and Louisville physicians treat him without
results. Being induced to try your medicine
(Wooldridge’s Wonderful Cure), l purchased one
dozen bottles, of wnich I gave one to my son.
After using one bottle he was apparently well; he
used one-half bottle more, and now has a clear
skin and is perfectly well and healthy.
I say this that it may benefit suffering human
ity, as it has restored my baby boy to health. J.
H. Pulley, foreman of the Arlington lime works,
was badly afflicted with boils and carbuncles,
on body and limbs. He bought one
bottle of your medicine to try.
After using same, purchased several, and is now

and body. Yours truly,
