Phenix City and Girard.
Rev. J. B. K. Smith was absent during
the past week, attending to some legal
business in Hamilton, Ga.
A large crowd assembled at Summers-
gill Hall last night to witness the masque
rade skating.
Sickness is on the decline. Drug men
are very restless and doctors look long
faced.
The usual services will be held at the
Baptist church today by the pastor, Rev.
W. B. Carter. The church will also take
some action towards a protracted meeting.
George D. Redden, formerly of this
place, now a prominent photographer of
Little Rock, Ark., spent several days the
past week in the city. George made many
friends while with us who will be glad to
welcome him back whenever he desires to
return.
Guioe a serious accident happened at
Williams <£ Booker’s Wednesday, that re
sulted in the breaking of Mr. Scriuipshire’s
arm. He and John Page were playing,
and by some means unknown to those who
were standing by, Page jerked Mr. Scrimp-
shire around. His arm was wrench* d in
some way that it broke between the elbow
and shoulder. He is doing very well.
The Council meets Friday night, at
which time Due electric lights and extra
police for night service will be considered.
It is to be hoped that the Enquirer-Sun
can announce to its readers that the Coun
cil acted favorable in these two important
items, of which the Enquirer-Sun readers
are familiar.
Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Screws, who have
been residents of Phenix City for the past
year, left for their home in Anniston, Fri
day. They have many friends here who
regret their departure. Mr. Screws was
foreman of the Enquirer-Sun composing
rooms and was noted for his faithfulness
and efficiency. Increasing ill-health, how
ever, compelled him to resign his position.
.Since the publication of the article on
the “wholesale negro dinner carriers” a
few Sundays ago, several citizens have
stopped employing them for that purpose,
and many are even sawing their own
wood, or buying it from the wood yards
ready sawed, before they will pay the ne
groes their extortionate prices for sawing
it. If every citizen would do this Phenix
City would be greatly benefltted.
’"It Wonid be a great convenience to the
citizens of Phenix City, aud eastern part
of Lee county generally, if the officials of
the Coluoibus and Western division of the
Central railroad would attach an extra
coach on the freights that leave Columbus
at 7 a. m. and return at 6 p. m. from Ope
lika during the time court is in session.
As the schedule for the passenger train
now stands, it would be impossible for any
one having business of a court nature to
leave the eastern portion of the county
and return the same day, as was the prac
tice when the old schedule was in effect..
The court will convene the first Monday
in November.
James Newsom <fc Co. are still selling
boots, shoes and hats at reduced prices.
Their store is the place to get most any
thing good. They carry a first-class line
of dress fabrics as well as one of the best
assortments of groceries. The Exposition
is near at hand and you should bear this
in mind. Their line of crockery, which
they are selling at cost for the purpose of
closing them out at once, is unsurpassed
by any similar establishment.
Mr. T. J. Pittman has just received a
nice line of shirts, white shirts, woolen
shirts, undershirts, and gents’ and ladies’
underwear, and will sell them at prices
lower than ever heard of before for same
quality of goods.
“Lon” wishes it understood that he is
still with I. Meadows, selling the purest
wines and liquors. Call on him.
For good and cheap dry goods, you can
find no better place to buy than at T. J.
Pittman’s. He. has all kinds of jeans,
prints, homespuns, eassimeres, hats, shoes
and ready-made pants. Also, everything
kept in a first-class grocery establishment.
Remember to buy your groceries from him
and see hi in before you prepare, your fine
dinner for friends visiting you during the
Exposition.
I MEAN TO MOVE THINGS,
Day and night 1 out of my store to get your
change and get room for my stock that’s
coming in all the while. Prints, calicoes,
jeans, flannels, factory cheeks (for dresses)
ladies’ and gents’ underwear, hose and
half-hose, stockings and half stockings,
right and left stockings, vinegar, honey,
syrup, butter, lard, flour, bacon, dry goods
and groceries. 1 deal in all both on ’em.
and I’ll sell you if you poke your nose in
at the door. See if I don’t.
Respectfully, J. W. Herring,
The Fat Joker,
at Holland & Baker’s corner.
presented in a graceful manner the beau
tiful badge and bonqnet to their beloved
teacher. To this the teacher responded
by expressing a very pleasant surpris e and
heartfelt gratitude to the class for such a
great honor conferred upon one who felt
himself so on worthy.
SACREDLY DEDICATED.
To the memory of Mrs. E. L. Davidson,
who departed this life Wednesday, October
15, 1890, at her residence in Phenix City,
after the brief illness of one day. She
leaves a husband and eight children, be
sides friends innumerable.
She was a devoted Christian, a loving
mother, an indulgent aud loving wife.
Her whole life has been one of charity,
loving kindness and felicity. Pheni x City
has lost one of her brightest jewels, and
all sympathize and mourn this great ca
lamity, and extend to the heart broken
mate of her life and children their ten-
derest and most profound sympathy in this
their irrepressable loss. May all continue
in her foot steps through life, that they
may finally reach that home not made by
human hands, where all is joy and bliss.
“Ami so we are content to wait.
Knowing the dav will surely dawn;
When as the first one woke, thon’lt wake,
From thy soul-sleep and hooking on.
Thv face will know that we are thine.
Thy other seif tbv fate: •
’Ti l then, ’till then, come weil or woe,
We are content, content to wait.”
GIRARD.
There will be no services at the Baptist
church todaf.
Many citizens attended court-at Seale
last week.
Mrs. Jas. T. Freeman, daughter of Mrs.
J. L. Bennett, died at her home in
Blakely a few days ago, and her remains
were interred in the Girard cemetery.
The Rev. Mr. Crook has returned and
will conduct the usual services at the
Methodist church today.
The mass-meeting to consider the char
ter for incorporation of the town of
Girard and to receive the report of the
charter committee appointed at a previous
meeting, was largely attended at in
Gibson’s Hall Friday night. T. E. Golden
was called to the chair and John S. Rob
erts appointed Secretary. The committee
reported and the charter prepared by them
was read ami discussed. It was decided
not to take action upon the report at
present, but to take further time for con
sideration and so the meeting was ad
journed until next Monday night, when
the consideration of the charter ^prill be
resumed.

A HIGHLY ESTEEMED PRESENT.
At the closing exercises of W. M.
Pound’s singing school at the Baptist
Church in Phenix City on Friday evening
last, his students showed their apprecia
tion of his services, besides paying their
tuition, by presenting him with a very
handsome “gold badge,” accompanied by
a beautiful, fragrant bouquet. In a few
well-timed retparks Brother W. D. White
eulogized the efforts of the teacher, after
which four sweet little girls of the class,
in behalf of the school, came forward and
AN INTERESTING TEST OF THEM MADE IN
ATLANTA.
The matter of automaiie sprinklers as a
protection against fires in factories, busi
ness blocks, etc., has been brought before
the insurance companies to a very consid
erable extent during the past year or
more.
While the insurance companies have
had great confidence in the work of the
sprinklers in closed buildings, yet there
has been a good deal of doubt as to their
efficiency in open warehouses, sheds, etc.
To demonstrate, this fact fully the Hill
Automatic Sprinkler Company of Colum
bus, Ga., e invited the members of the
Southeastern Tariff Association to a pub
lic test of the sprinklers on the vacant lot
on Pryor street, near Edgewood avenue,
An open frame work with no roof at ail
over it, was erected, covering a space of
30x40 leer, and on this frame work were
placed pipes, etc., with twelve Hill sprink
lers. The ground was covered with pine
shavings about twelve inches deep, and
over this was poured ten gallons of kero
sene oil.
Water connection was kindly furnished
from a fire hydrant near by, with fire
hose, by Chief Joyner.
Arrangements were made to fire the en
tire mass instantly.
Three only of the sprinklers were opened,
land put the fire out in just one moment.
The first sprinkler opened in thirty-five sec
onds, the second in forty seconds, and the
third in fifty-five seconds from the time
the torch was applied to the shavings.
The fire was an extremely hot one, and
the work done was a complete surprise
to all.
There were present Mr. • H. C. Stock-
dell, chairman of the committee oh auto
matic sprinklers; Mr. C. C. Fleming, -sec
retary of the Southeastern Tariff Associa
tion. and representatives from all the
prominent insurance companies.
The test was made under the immediate
supervision of Mr. E- H. Jenkins, presi
dent Georgia Steam and Gas Pipe Com
pany, of Columbus, Ga.—Atlanta Consti
tution, 20th.
THEY ARE CLOSED.
PROCLAMATION OF THE MAYOR IN REFER
ENCE TO GAMING IN EFFECT.
The proclamation of the Mayor touch
ing the suppression of gaming went into
effect yesterday.
So far as could be ascertained, all of the
gaming houses about the city were closed
promptly, ,
“We are keeping a sharp lookout for any
violations of the proclamation,” remarked
Chief Beard yesterday morning. “All of the
gaming places known to the police
are being inspected and if any of them
open up, or any suspicious circumstances
are brought to the attention of the police,
the places will be raided aud the inmates
arrested and brought before the Mayor.
Chief Beard has received information
that a number of gaming house keepers
have sold their furniture and some of
them have left the city. The sporting
men seem to have taken the proclama
tion philosophically, and very little open
kicking is heard among them.
DADEVIEI.E NOTES.
Dadevillk, Ala., October 25.—[Spe
cial.]—Hon. J. E. Cobb, Democratic and
Conservative candidate for Congress, is
Here to fill his appointment to speak to
day, but owing to the small crowd present
has decided not to speak, as he has no op
position.
A couple of boys, each about fifteen
years old, left their parental roofs yester
day, and took the dirt road east, as they
had no money to pay railroad fare. These
young gentlemen will no donbt soon re
gret their rash act, as they both had good
homes.
The county authorities have decided to
build a new jail. They are trying to pur
chase a lot nearer the public square than
the present one.
The^tew pebble building of Pugh, Stone
& Ca, and also the new storehouse of Dr.
Adams, both on the east side of the public
square, are rapidly going up.
A good many wish to move to town, to
get the benefit of our most excellent High
school, but there are no houses to rent.
Mrs. Jones has sold a half interest in
Louii Cotton.
