Judge Rawlings stated tn a Hkuald reporter that he thought it very probable that the special term would be hefld in November as that time would suit ail parties concerned hotter than nearer the holidays. When it is known what the date will be it will be announced in this paper. Possibly tho most interesting ease tried before this court in years was that of Ed. Heywood, charged with a beastial olTenso; His case was taken up early Fri day morning and lasted through out the day Saturday, the court convening Friday night to exam ine some of the witnesses. The strongest legal talent in this sec tion of the state was employed on both sides and the arguements on both sideB were strong. The jury after remaining out until Sunday morning failed to make a verdict and a mistrial was ordered. A number of prominent citizens from all parts of the county were m attendance at the court. Miss Mae Chancele Reynolds, the newly elected teacher of music in the Sandersville High School, is a young woman of charming personality, a finished teacher, and the possessor of a rare voice.

We gladly com mend her to the profession. “Edgar M. Cawley.” Miss Reynolds already has a nice class and we believe when the people know her and hear her sing that she will have this de partment full.

Lozier, one of the best known and highly esteemed citizens of Washington county, died at his home at Warthen last last Thursday night after a lin gering illness of sometime with fever. He was about sixty years of age and up to tho time of his recent illness carried his age with an air of' a much younger man, possessing a hale and hearty dis position with a cheerful word and a smile for every ono. Mr. Lozier had been a citizen of this county for thirty or forty years and was always identified with the best interests and wel fare of our people, and will long be remembered as a most public spirited gentleman holding tho confidence and friendship of all.

Remember the date, and give this firm a call. A most cordial invitation is extended to all. Just a Little Excitement. Last Monday afternoon about 4 o’clock the press-room of the Her aid office was impregnated with confusion that almost developed into a commotion of considerable degree. One of the editors busily engaged in the composing room in the rear of the building, while the business manager was at work at the front, and the press man was in the central or middle room feeding one of the presses at a rate that necessarily kept his mind riveted closely on his par ticular work, when behold! there appeared, unannounced, in an in- formal way, an approbrious rep tile of the coachwhip variety right in the center of the room alarmingly near the press. If the pressman were an imbiber of near beer he might have thought this a near snake, but no, it was ab solutely, undeniably the genuine article—alive and apparently in good health. Of course the pressman is not afraid of snakes; ng, no. But he does not think it quite polite for squirmers in his snakeship’s class to visit uninvited ot a business house during business hours therefore when the belt on the driving wlioel was shifted to loose-pulley without ceremony one foot of the pressman was hoisted upon a table and the other foot was in a splendid position to fol low the first, and his dauntless ness was put aside to apply a sa fer refuge, by bellowing loud, long and earnestly for help! When the relief finally arrived, the snake was cornered and put to death. And the pressman begs apace in the Herald to say that he candidly hopes all his enakesliip’s family and the family kindred will die of grief because Mr. Coachwhip never returned home after this his last visit. Poison to his ashes. The Pressman. For the past two weeks our help has been worked* unmercifully, but we could not help it. The writer of this announcement has been going from daylight till mid- nigh^ and he sees no place where there is rest about his - premises for him. On, on he forges ahead with the pow erful, mighty and eloquent cash at every turn. Nolbody owes him, he owes nobody. His great trouble is to get the goods fast enough. It’s simply a mighty sight to see bargains after bargains—the thousand and thousands of different attractive things he has. And he is not afraid to mark goods in his store or in the paper in plain figures. These prices are one and the same to everybody; your dollar buys as much here as anybody’s. We nave nothing to smuggle or hide. You can see our prices, and if these prices and the goods don’t suit you you owe us nothing, and we owe you nothing ; both are free. If you do not want to trade with us, trade where you please. We have no strings tied to anyone. We do not want your trade if we do not iperit it. In every case every man pays his own debts at our store. Reader, perhaps you are not one of our customers, if not you ought to first come and look around one time ; you might be able to comprehend what you have been missing and losing. We are the only positively, strictly, without defalca tion, eloquent Cash Concern here. But young man or mg woman, some of you will see, and that not in the far distant day, the whole bunch will follow right in ackson’s footsteps — or, rather, his “cranky,” “queer” ways, as some so flippantly speak of him. He has the “cash” to pay his way, and asks nobody except the Su preme One any difference, He has no lies to tell you in order to get your trade. If you want to save money on the majority of the tuff you buy, tirade with the eloquent Cash man— ackson ; if not, stay away. Here you will be told the truth about every item you buy. If you do not appre ciate this, some one else will. We have just one straight, plain, polite way of doing business. N F W 5 fit 10 4 RACK £ T STORE. SANDERSVI LL £ GA WILLIAM J.
