Water Melon Festival.
—
Friday evening at the pleasant
home of Mrs. G. A. given Bryan, in a honor water
melon festival was
of her granddaughter, Miss May
Denning. The social features of
the occasion were most pleasant
and enjoyable. Those present were
Messrs. W. B. Amos, jr., L. P. An¬
thony, Paul A. Bowden, G. B. Mc
Ginty, A. G. Wilder, A. N. Sharp,
W. P. Bloodworth, and Misses Ab

In the Markets.
Mr. J. J. Cater and his right
bower, Mr. Bela Rumble, are spend¬
ing some days in northern and
eastern markets, purchasing a com¬
prehensive stock of fall and winter
goods for -Messrs. J. J. Cater & Co.
’Tis quite needless for us to state
that that firm will offer to the pub¬
lic an elegant and first class line
from which to select their winter
goods. Mr. Rumble is looking
after the interest of the shoe and
clothing business and in those lines
they propose to excel. Look out
for their magnificent stock which
will be ready for the public in a
few days.
SOLD OUT.
I take this opportunity and to state that 1
have sold out my family fancy who gro¬
cery business to Mr. A. F. Burr,
will continue the business at the same
stand. Mr. Burr has a prepared complete stock of
firstclass goods and is to meet
the demands of those who want the best
goods.
In retiring from the grocery business
we return thanks to the public for the
favors shown us in the past. We cheer¬
fully commend our successor to our
many friends and the trading people and
bespeak for him the liberal patronage
that has been so generously extended to
me.
Having reserved my stock of jewelry
musical instruments, spectacles, clocks,
etc., I will for the future occupy the
store in the Vineburg corner recently oc¬
cupied by Mrs. M. M. Anthony where I
will sell goods in my line at remarkably
low figures. W. E. Sanders.
Change of Business.
Mr. A. P. Burr has entered into
the fancy and family grocery busi¬
ness at the stand heretofore occu¬
pied by Mr. W. E. Sanders, who
has retired from that line of busi¬
ness. Mr. Burr is now opening and
lining his shelves and counters
with a new and choice stock em¬
bracing everything usually found
in a fancy and family grocery store,
and will keep constantly on hand
goods adequate to the demands of
the trading public. We bespeak
for Mr. Burr a liberal share of pat¬
ronage from the public. Look out
for his advertisement in which he
will tell the people what he has to
offer them.
Boys to Their Books.
The fall session of Hilliard In¬
stitute will begin next Monday
under supervision of Prof. W. D.
Thurmond, who has presided over
that school for several years.
After a long and pleasant vaca¬
tion- the boys will again enter the
school room and will have the priv¬
ilege of devoting the next four
months to their books.
The fall session of Monroe Fe¬
male college will begin on the 12th
instant, and then the girls will have
the opportunity of again advancing
their educational interest after rest¬
ing through the summer months.
Prof. Powell, aided by an able
corps of teachers, will preside over
that institution.
Neat and Satisfactory.
The office of tax receiver is of
more importance than the general¬
ity in of people attach to it. Efficien¬
cy that official is a ’ great desid¬
eratum. Upon returning his di¬
gest for the present year to the
comptroller-general, Capt. C. C.
Hightower, our present receiver,
received the following:
Dear Sir :—I have received

manner and one of the few digests
to show an increase.

Damage to Cotton.
The effects of the late excessive
rains that have prevailed pretty
generally in the cotton states, have
been more or less damaging to the
cotton crop. In some sections the
damage is reported as serious.
In this county considerable dam¬
age to the cotton is reported to
have resulted from the excess of
rain. There is some complaint of
boll worms, but the most serious
damage is said to be from shedding
of the forms, and delay in the
opening of matured bolls. How¬
ever, with favorable weather for a
few weeks to come, the indications
are that a fair crop will be realized
in this county. The most serious
draw backs to the cotton producer
now is the low price that promises
to prevail during the coming sea*
son. The bountiful crop of corn
! and a good crop of meat will nev
j ertheless go far to offset the short
i age from the cotton.

Superior Court.
The court was in session last
week, and its attention was given
exclusively to civil business.
The opening day of the court
gave promise that very little would
be done towards disposingof cases
pending in that branch of the
court. But after the court had
that gotten under headway might it was seen
nruch business be done,
and hence work in that branch of
the court was continued to Friday
evening,- when the court took a
recess till yesterday.
While there were not many cases
submitted to juries during the five
days session of the court, yet there
were quite a numbea of cases dis¬
posed of. Oftentimes there is
complaint, upon the part of the
lookers on, at the tardiness of the
court that in demands dispatching the attention, busi¬
ness its
because these complainers fail
to take cognizancei of the work
done by the court in addi¬
tion to the cases disposed of by
the jury. These complaining criti¬
cisms of court proceedings are
usually based upon the surface ap¬
pearances in the court and not
upon the deep under current of
work done by the bar and court in
order to shorten litigation and re¬
lieve the people as much as possi¬
ble from the burden of court ex
penses.
When the labors of the week
were summed up, the footing show¬
ed that good progress had been
made in disposing of the business
pending in court. Some cases
were the latter arranged to be looked after
part of this week, after
the court’s labors in the criminal
branch of the court shall have been
concluded.
Judging from the quiet and
prompt manner in which the grand
jurors daily entered upon their
labors, it is safe to state that they
are a faithful body of working men
who are keeping a watchful eye to
the interest of the county, of
which interest they are the consti¬
tuted guardians. The composition
of that jury, coupled with what
evidence can be picked up on the
surface, indicate that thev are per¬
sistent and diligent in their efforts
to discharge the duties incumbent
upon them. \
The court convened for the sec¬
ond week yesterday morning and af¬
ter organizing the juries, proceeded
promptly docket to business. The criminal
is being looked after. There
are some cases that will requre
careful investigation, and if tried,
will doubtless engage much of the
courts time.
The Right Step.
We are glad to see our people,
and especially those entrusted with
the charge of that great interest,
waking up on that subject. For¬
syth has no local interest that is
more deserving of universal atten¬
tion and special nurturing than the
educating of her children. It is
one important interest attaching to
every community of people that
should never be allowed to lapse
into decadence nor to move in a
laggardly manner. On the contra
trary a spirit of activity, enterprise
and push touching this matter
should pervade our entire citizen¬
ship and every hindrance that
stands in the way of establishing
the very best educational system
in, and for the town, should be dug
up and cast aside. That for some
time there have been hindrances
along this line, among us, is a fact
patent to all who are conversant
with our late school history.
The trustees of our male school,
realizing this, have determined to
inaugurate a system which it is be¬
lieved will cure the defects in our
educational methods. The remedy
proposed by them is the coeduca¬
tion system to which the progres¬
sive educational spirit of the period
inclines, the success of which sys¬
tem is being established in many
of the high schools. This, in the
judgement of many most vitally
interested, is the best agency for
removing the hindrancss to the
success of our schools.
This idea culminating and taking
hold upon the minds of our people
moves the custodians of our edu¬
cational interest to this line of
school declarations policy. And their published
upon this subject make
a long step toward supplying the
boys and girls of Forsyth with
such educational facilities as their
interests demand. Circumstances
preclude the establishment of a
mixed school here at present, but
it is gratifying to the advocates of
such school that it is one of the
coming realities of our town. To
this end, those who would bring
educational prosperity to our com¬
munity, should lend their best ef¬
forts.

Culloden Looking Up.
The evidences of growth and
prosperity Culloden, in our neighboring town,
are still multiplying.
But a few years ago that attractive
little town, once noted for its eul
ture and refinement, was drifting
somewhat into decadence. Then it
was devoid of any artery of corn
merce, was out of hearing of the
engine’s whistle, and its former
glory seemed to be receding.
But that unpromising aspect of
Culloden has passed away. The
spirit of progress found that town
in its pathway, and to-day she sits,
an attractive little city, by the side
of two railroads linking her with
great commercial and prosperous
centers The returning of her
former prosperity is seen in the
in multiplying her imposing of her elegant homes,
business houses,
in her recently constructed and
elegant church edifice, and in her
new and stately school building,
which, not only stand as monu¬
ments to the culture of her present
population, but as indices pointing
to the elevation and refinement of
her chidren’s children. Blessed
progressive with an intelligent, energetic, and
ries of people and with arte¬
touch with commerce the bringing her in
the future great centers of life,
Culloden promises history of renowned
to far out strip
that of her brilliant past. Nestled
in the center of fertile hills and
dales, she can proudly boast of her
location and of superior advantages
We are proud of Culloden and her
people, and we love to note her
prosperity she and progressiveness be¬
cause stands, a daughter of the
same, as one of the many and living
evidences that Monroe ranks among
the grandest counties of Georgia.
Culloden’s superiority and attrac¬
tiveness as a home and educational
center away back in the days when
she rested in the shade of retire
ment is only prophetic of what may
be her splendid future attainments
since she has fallen into the line of
progressiveness and is moving on¬
ward and upward.

Wednesday and consigned to the
Empire warehouse and sold for
8 1-2 cents. It was grown on
the farm of Mr. Loring Brown,
near Bolingbroke. The date of its
reception was about two weeks
later than the first bale has been
making its appearance in this mar¬
ket for several years. Mr. Brown
is not only a successful poultryman
but is a farmer of progressiveness.
Fie farms on the intensive plan
and puts behind his efforts energy,
push and intelligence, three abso¬
lute essentials to success in that
vocation.
A few days fair and open weath¬
er will no doubt bring into our
market many cotton bales, and will
put activity into the business of
our town, for cotton in the market
is a general lubricator to the wheels
of business.
Our warehousemen are ready
and well prepared to handle with
dispatch all the cotton that may be
brought to this market, which will,
as usual, rank among the best cot¬
ton markets. Bring in your cot¬
ton, get the money for it, circulate
that needed article and let indebted¬
ness be liquedated. Then all par¬
ties interested will feel good.
A stimulant is often needed to nourish
and strengthen the roots and to keep the
hair a natural color. Hall’s Hair Re
newer is the best tonic for the hair.
The city fathers continue the
good work of improving the streets.
Last week Marshal Williamson had
some good work done on East Main
street; and were similar work con¬
tinued through Main street it would
doubtless prove an ultimate saving
to the city. Could all the streets
in the city be once worked after
that manner it would subsequently
require but little work to keep
them in good condition.
