Wright, Hayes, Whiddoo, Mitchell and
Minutes of last meeting read and
confirmed.
w Following petitions were read and
referred to the Ordinance committee:
GEORGIA—Thomas County.
To the Mayor and Council oi said
town:
We, the undersigned citizens and
residents in the town of Thomasville,
Ga., respectfully petition and request
your honorable body, in framing the
new ordinances for the incoming
license, year to take into considera
tion a change in the ordinance of
vending fresh meats in the town, to
see if our laws cannot be so arranged
as to allow the producer of tresh
meats to bring them into the town
and sell them directly to the con
sumer, as our present law we feel to
be a burden and n hardship both to
the consumer and producer, and
beneficial only to a very small class
who are protected thereby.

We the undersigned citizens and
resident farmers of said county living
adjacent to, and relying upon the
town of Thomasville to a very great
extent for a market for cur surplus
farm products, beg leave to submit
to ycur body the advisability of mak
ing a change in the town ordinance
upon the subject of selling fresh
meats in said town, to see if tbe law
cannot be arranged as to allow the
producer of fresh meats to sell them
directly to consumers in said town,
in such quantities and at such times
as necessity demands. Hoping in
this matter to meet with favorable
consideration, we hereto respectfully
subscribe our names,

“Peter.”
One man has stood faithfully by the
waterworks since Mr. Hefright (that'
name sounds familiar) first broke dirt
on the deep well. We refer to Peter,
the old reliable stand by. Through
evil and good report, with tods down
in the well and oat of it; ’arid prosperi
ty and adversity; ’mid sunshine and
clouds, Peter has never faltered, bat
with honest, devoted service, he has
shared in all the ape and downs of the
works, always giving the town prompt,
faithful service, whether that service
was needed at noon-day or midnight
We take pleasure in bearing testimony
to the long and faithful service of Pe
ter. His kindly, beaming black face

him to go down to the bottom of the
well, he would try to do it

say that in his htunble sphere he has

Another city in Georgia has served
practical notice to tramps. Mayor
Grimes of Columbus has sentenced one
of the huDgry army to the rock-pile

tramps tbs t Georgia is inhospitable soil

Thomasville is another town where
tramps are given their rights—the
right to work out a sentence on the
streets. The enforcement of the va
grant law is of the first importance.
It should be rigidly enforced at all
times.
Will you take somo stock in a can

leading citizen of the town, yes
terday.
Yes, I might take gome stock in a
canning establishment, but I will take
more in an electric light company.
What this town needs,” continued the
gentleman, and he is posted, “is better
and cheaper lights. Look at Albany,
and other places. They are supplied
with hundreds of electric lights, at Ie*s
cost than we arc paying for sixty or
seventy poorly served gas lights.”

Wnntcd Him to Surrender.
A colored woman, wife of a man
who is in jail, dropped into a mer
chant’s store, the proprietor being
the prosecutor in the case of the
jailed husband, and said:
I wants ter know if yousc gwine
to surrender?”
“Surrender,” said the gentleman,
I don’t understand you.”
“What I means,” said the woman,
nth arms akimbo, “is dat my hus
band am not subjeck to dis ting,
nohow.”
Squire Mardre, in trying the case,
decided that the man was “subjeck”
to the law.
At last accounts the merchant had
not surrendered.

dreamed. How I shall enjoy the sun
shine, tbe bine sky, and the fresh, pnro
air that will cool my ^heated skin!
Ob, if I might only aee and feel them
nowl
Second day—What a dreadful heat!
How disappointed I am! Tina air,
this water, this light—how different it
is from what I imagined. Patience!
I shall *be better off alter awhile.
This old woman who nones me doaen’t
seem to understand me at all.
Fifth day—No deliverance yet! If it
goes on like this I can’t hold out much
longer. The whole live-long day I He
smothered in feathers. I can scarcely
get a breath of air. I am bound up
in one woolen and two lined swaddling-
bands; then a little shirt and a wonted
jacket are put on me. I am placed on
a long feather pillow, and a feather
coverlid is placed over me. The hang
ings of my crib are closely drawn,
doable curtains darken the room, and
the windows are tightly shut, and
there I, poor, poor little creature, must
lie from morn till eve. My glowing
skin is even worse off than the stove
beside me, for that can give off its
heat. Oh! if I knew what to do.
If I cry that old woman gives me hot
milk to drink, and I am hotter than
before. If my hands feel cold, be
cause my head is burning, that cruel
nurse brings a pair of feather pillows
for them. I am ready to die with

side to side seeking some escape, and
my tormenter says: “The child is
shivering, he needs more warmth;” and
she catches up the thickest blankets
she can find, heats it oh the stove and
throws it over me. Is no one coming
to help me?
Tenth day—Another fearfal night!
The air is stifling! I cry my best, but
no one understands me. I must drink,
drink, and drink again until I overflow.
This morning I was longing for my
bath, hopirig that it would be a little
cooler than usual. They begin to
undo me, but all at once they bound
me up again and put me iu the horri
ble pillow. The nurse was frightened
about something, and off she went for
tbe doctor. He came and looked at
me io my pillow grave, and—did noth
ing to liplp me, although I • looked at'
him most pitifully and tried hard to
tell him of my sufferings. Half an
hour later I had to swallow a spoonfnll
of nasty sweet stuff that smelt horrible;
that was to do my poor stomach good.
Air, air, fresh, cool air, light, water!
Shall I never know them in this
world?
Twelfth day—Well! I can’t last
much longer! Thero was a grand con
clave of all my aunts and female cous
ins yesterday; each had a new remedy
for me, and all agreed that the cold
the cause of my illness. They
ordered that I should be kept warm;
they gave me prepared food and some
strong wine that went through my
heated brain and made me like one
dead. They bound a flannel tightly
arcund my stomach so that after every
ipoonfull of food I had to bring some
ip. My legs were drawn down
straight and fastened tightly so that
I could not draw them up to <
aching stomach a little. I am gradu
ally becoming insensible. Oht tbat it
may all be soon over.
Thirteenth day—Farewell, thou
beautiful world! Thy light, thine air
have not been given me. I am going
to where there sre no bauds and all are
free.

SHORT TALK
To all who bay
B is generally conceded
that high prices are asked for
this line of goods. I com
menced business in Thomas
ville with the firm resolve to
sell for the lowest amount
possible, any and every ar*
tide in my stock. I have
kept the resolution and will
continue to do so. The rich
do not wish to waste their
money, tho poor cannot afford
it
It is a fad, that my prices
will save you 25 cents on
every dollar spent I give
honest, faithful, tasty work,
in every art of trimming. ]
want your trade and ask von
for it. Call and get my prices
in advance. Compere with
others. I do not seU as low
bat lower than any compe
tition.
It ia your own interest
prove this. Wfil be glad
you any time.
Mi!.. Jennie Cakholl.
Jackson street Milliner.
We cordially in
vite an inspection of
the above bona lido
Bargains, and feel
confident to please
you in both quality
of goods and prioe.
