Parties from different counties de

they may secure the educational ad
vantages afforded at Alonroe Female
College and Hilliard Institute.
A few hours prior to the earthquake
last Tuesday the atmosphere assumed
a peculiar haziness which specially
attracted our attention. Was it a
premonition of that earthquake?
A boy who is polite to his father
and mother is likely to be polite to

semblance of courtesy in society, but
is never truly polite in spirit, and is
in danger, as he becomes faiyiliar, of
betraying his real want of courtesy.

Superior Court.
The proceedings of the court for the
second week was more varied than
those of tiu* first week, which was
consumed mostly in the Investigation
of one case. The trial of civil cases
was concluded on AA’cdn: -day even
ing, quite a number of cases on the
civil docket having been disposed of.
The criminal docket was taken up
by the court on Thursday morning
and proceeded with, through the re
mainder of the week, during which
time the following cases were tried
to-wit:
J. A. Austin, charged with as
sault with intent to murder, found
guilty of assault ; Jim AYiikes, misde
meanor, verdict, not guilty; Tea Ba
ker, tmrglarv, plea of guilty; Tobe
Fambro, larceny from the house, ver
dict, guilty; Perry Davis, misde
meanor, verdict, guilty; Ben Shan
non, assault with intent to rape, ver
dict, guilty; Henry Davis, malicious
mischief, verdict, not guilty; John
Simmons, murder, verdict, guilty
with recommendation ; Jerre Walton,
misdemeanor, plea of guilty; Jack
Goins, assault and battery, verdict,
guilty; Lizzie Flewellen, misde
meanor, plea of guilty; John
Sparks, misdemeanor, plea of guilty;
Charles Johnson, misdemeanor, ver
dict, not guilty; Ben Lovett, misde
meanor, verdict, guilty; Matt Banks,
misdemeanor, verdict, not guilty;
Emma Dennis, murder, was put on
trial twice, and a mistrial had each
time.
There was a goodly number of cit
izens in attendance upon the court
each day. The grand jury closed
their labors on Friday evening.
Their general presentments showed
that they were neither slack or negli
gent in their investigations of the va
rious departments of county business.
In relation to county affairs much
devolves upon the grand jury. In
deed the position of a grand juror is a
very responsible one; and to faithful
ly and fearlessly discharge the duties
thereof requires nerve and true moral
courage. Every grand juror should
enter upon the discharge of his duty
as such, with a fixed purity of pur
pose and adhesion to right, that
knows no friend in the investigation
of crime and that leads him to inves
tigate without fear, favor or affection
every violation of the criminal law
made known to him. On this line,
however, Alonroe has cause to be
proud of her grand juries.

Si.issard iiisUtute,
A visit to the institute last week
revealed to us that tire finishing touch
es were being put upon the building
which has undergone such thorough
repairs and renovation under the
hands of the contractor, Mr. X. B.
Wynn, as to give quite the appearance
ofa new bui 1 ding. The additions wliicli
have been made have added very
much to the capacity of the study
room which is now one of the most
comfortable of any male school in
Georgia, within our knowledge. The
repairs on both, the interior and exte
rior add a great deal to its attractive
ness, so that it is now quite a hand
some building. The plastering and
lining on the exterior of the walls by
the Messrs. Smith is in good taste and
relieve it entirely of its^former dull,
dead appearance. The recitation rooms
are capacious and most comfortably
arranged. The faculty presided over
by Prof. V. E. Orr, whose reputation
is broad and whose interest in the
progress of students entrusted to his
tutorship never abates, is able and
complete, each member thereof being
specially fitted, as an instructor, forthe
department to which they have been
assigned. The business departments
which have been added to this school
render it one of the most complete in
the state. Located in as healthy a
town as there is in Geogia, and among
as refined and intelligent people,
with the best of facilities for instruc
tion, we know of no other school that
can put in a better bid for the patron
age of those who have sons to send
away from home to educate, than can
Hilliard Institute. Hence we invite
the attention of fathers and mothers
in Georgia having sons to educate, to
the consideration of the advantages
of oar school.

Religious.
Pr. T. R. Branham, gave his hear
ers at the Baptist church on Sunday
morning quite an able and interesting
sermon, in which he touched upon
the recent subterranean disturbances
at Charleston.
Rev. J. R. Parker, at the Methodist
church took the subject of Love, as
the foundation for his sermon, and in
a very clear and lucid manner ex
pounded the declarations of St. Paul
on this subject, demonstrating in the
conclusion that love is the strong ev
idence of a pure religion. The even
ing hour was devoted to the memo
rial exercises of Rev. L. J. Davies.
In these exercises were brought out
many facts touching his ministerial
life, that helped to make up the
earthly record of this good and useful
man.
Rev. Mr. Xisbet occupied the pul
pit at the Presbyterian church and
gave his congregation a good sermon.
Service at this church began on
Friday night and i- being continued.
Revs. Dr. Barnett, and Ketfi Smith
are present. Dr. Barnett preached
yesterday.
iuo Co-ion isarki't.
It is doubtless remembered by the
farmers of Monroe and adjoining
counties, that the Forsyth cotton
market, during the whole of last sea
son was in the front ranks of inland
markets in Georgia. It was the fa
cilities that our buyers availed them
selves of, that supported that status
ot affairs on this line then. AYe are
glad to announce that even better fa
cilities have been obtained for main
taining our cotton market at that
high standard during the continuance
of the present season.
No markets in Georgia, save, it
may be, our sea-ports, will be able to
pay higher prices for cotton this sea
son, than will be obtainable from the
buyers in our markets. Indeed when
the expenses for marketing, sale, &c.,
are deducted, better net prices will be
obtainable lu re. The money is here
and will be here to pay for all the
cotton that may be brought here.
And we are assured in saying that ar
rangements for shipping cot ina direct
to manufacturers are such as that the
profits that often go into the hands of
intermediate sneculators will be
saved to the farmer who sells his cot
ton here. This margin of profit it is
true, as regards each individual far
mer may be small; but if it be but a
nickle to the bale, it is just that
much, and is better saved than lost.
Farmers of Alonroe, and others in
reach of us, if you would realize the
greatest net profit for your cotton
after you have worked and made it,
then bring it to the best market for
obtaining that profit. You know our
warehousmen personally; you know
their established reputations for hon
esty, integrity and fair-dealing in the
cotton business; their care for, and
attention to your interest in this line
and their promptness in the dispatch
of business. Kinder, more polite,
and more accommodating business
men are to be found no where. Then
when your cotton is ready for the
market, bringit to Forsyth, store'with
these gentlemen, receive the highest
market price for it, pay your debts,
if any; buy your winter goods
in Forsyth, pay one dollar and a half
for the Advertiser, and thereby put
the wheels of every department of
business in motion, and let us all go
on rejoicing together.
Forsyth; How to l&stiid. it l T p.
The following sensible suggestions
for building up our town, we hope,
will be studied and practiced by ev
ery one of her citizens. Its wise sug
gestions may be read with profit by
those who are not croakers or missan
thropes, but who really wish to see
their town great and prosperous. The
plan for building up a town and keep
ing it in a flourishing condition, is to
have grit, push, snap, vim, churches,
colleges, morality, enteprise, harmo
ny, advertising, cordiality, cheap
property, healthy location, good coun
try tributary. Talk about it; speak
well of it; help to improve it. Ad
vertise in and read the town paper;
patronize its merchants; have faith in
your town exhibited by good works;
honest competition in business. Wel
come manufactories; welcome rail
roads; welcome macadamized streets
with plenty of shade trees; make
things look bright and attractive, by
liberal use of paint and white wash;
help all public enterprises; elect
good men to office; speak well of its
public spirited, enterprising citizens,
and be one of them yourself. Re
member that every dollar invested in
permanent improvements is that
much in interest. Always cheer on
the men, who go in for improvement.
By adhereing strictly to the above,
it is impossible to prevent a town from
growing and prospering.
The Central warehouse, opposite
Geo. Walkers lively stable, will be

Help Home Effort.
Many people do not consider the
fact that every dollar sent abroad for
work that can be done at home is a
direct strike against home enterprise.
And every such strike indirectly, and
to a greater or less extent retards
general home-thrift. If goods ran be
obtained and purchased at home at as
low figures; if work can be done as
cheaply and as well at home as else
where, certainly homcfolks should
have preference in'this line over those
abroad engaged in the same business.
Such a course would keep our money
at home and build up home enterprise.
In this connection we would state
that the Advertiser is prepared to do
and will do the job work of those need
ing such work aseheaply and as well as
it can be done anywhere, no matter
what those abroad may say to the
contrary. The Advertiser puts no
inferior work done on inferior mate
rial on any one in order to bring the
charges within the compass of sec
ond class rates, and then claim cheap
ness. All we ask is a comparison of
work, material and charges, and if
these will not stand by the side of
others then pass us by and let the
patronage be sent abroad.

DELECTALAVE
Is the best known Dentifrice to clean and
whiten the teeth, harden and beautify the
gums and purify the breath. Try it.' Its
use leaves a cool, pleasant sensation in the

If your mouth or your gums are sore,
Dolectalave will neal them.
If vour gums are spungy, Delectalave
will harden them.
If the use of the tooth brush causes suf
fering, Delectalave will heal the gums and
make the use of the brush a pleasure.
If you are suffering from malady of the
mouth or gums, you are safe in trying De
lectalave, for eighteen of Atlanta’s leading
physicians and dentists indorse its use.
If more proof is needed to convince you
ot its value to yourself, invest 50 cents in a
bottle and give it a personal trial, and let
it always grace your toilet and make vou

the recent earthquake was a land si ide,
