“Mr. Joe J. Black, proprietor of the J
J. Black Lumber Company, has made
up his mind to build a first class opera
house in Marietta. Having sold the
opera house that he had fixed up on
Atlanta street, Marietta has been with
out a publie place to hold amusements
ever gince. He intends to remedy this,
His purpose is to remove his resi
dence on Atlanta street, which adjoins
the site for the new government build
ing, and put up a three-story brick
building, two stores on the ground
floor, opera house on the second and a
lodge roowm on the third, He will build
himself a nice residence at Butler’s,
close to his plant there, and muvq/hi;
family to that suburb. A
Mr. Black is an enterprising citizen,
atd when he takes hold of anything, 1t
generally materializes, and] therefore
we confidently expect to see a beautiful
block of two stores, opera house and
lodge room built the first of next year
on Atlanta street.

MR, WHITLOCK
To Lease if a New Hotel
is Built in [Marietta
at Once.
\@m'rons JourNAL:—I am pleased to
see an article in the newspaper that
some of our prominent, public-spirited,
monied men have expressed an opinion
in favor of erecting a nice hotel in our
Gem City.
I think I am in a position to under
stand and to know how important it is
to our people to have a good hotel. It
would astonish the most skeptical ones
on the subject of a new hotel in Mari
etta, to see or realize the great number
of the best class of people that would
be attracted here in consequence of
such an enterprise. Every class of busi
ness would receive benefit from it, and
no doubt this would lead to other en
terprises that would make our Marietta
prosper and grow. I have great faith
in the good that would come to us out
of a good hotel, and to give evidence of
my faith in that direction, I propose
tkat if our people will subscribe and
raise $30,000 in stock and turn over to
me, I will obligate myself to erect at
least fifty bed-rooms, which would in
clude the number I already have, and I
will further obligate myself to pay four
per cent per annum on the amount.
If the stock should be subscribed and
the funds ready by Oectober Ist, I would
have the building ready and furnished,
ready for opening by January Ist, 1909.
I will add, to show the great demand
for a good hotel, I have had all the pat
ronage that I could possibly take care
of,and I have been obliged to decline
a 8 many, and perhaps twice as many,
as I bave rooms for. 1t hurts our place
to have strangers come and then forced
to go elsewhere because of lack of ac
eommodations. Even at this late day
of the season, a gentleman, his wife and
three daughters, from Pensacola, came
