chestra of fifty men and four emi
nent soloists, ror festival In our city
on afternoon and evening April 22.
This Is a gigantic attraction for Val
dosta and should be supported by
every business man In the city. Ev
ery citizen should feel personally in
terested and help to make the occa
sion one grand success. It means
more for our town than grand opera
does for Atlanta and puts us on a
slmlalr rating with that city In se
curing artists attractions.
This aggregation of musicians Is
the same that goes to Jacksonville
Spartanburg anti other cities ever
booked for festival In a town the
size of Valdosta. A fact to feol a
bit conceited nbotit.
The four soiolsts on tour with this
big orchestra arc: Florence Hlnrkle,
soprano; Christine Miller, contralto;
Albert Quesnel, tenor, and Arthur
Myddleton, basso. All artlBts of
first rank In tho East.
' Negro Fell from tho Train.
A negro hnd his head badly cut
this morning while trying to Jump
on the Valdosta Express at Hahlra.
The train was leaving tho station
and hnd gotten under pretty good
headway when this negro tried to
catch It and swing on. It seems
that he was not much of an artist
at mounting trains'and was Jerked
down, his head {hitting a croSstlo
and cutting a deep gash on It.
The engineer happened to see the
accident and stopped the train. He
baekepl the train and the conductor
end porter got out and helped the
wounded negro on, bringing him to
t this cnjr where his Injuries could bo
attended to. The accldont appears

been conducting a very busy ses

to hearing oases In tho court? house,
while demurrers and such like were
argued before him at night. Sever
al cases were tried and about fifty
cases were gotten off of the docket
. In one way or another.
While a large number of cases
were gotten off of the docket, many
others were placed upon It. The
number of eases that were on the
docket at the last term was forty-

No Hearing Today
Today waa the day set for the
hearing of the motion for n new
trlnl In the case against Boy High
tower and .Torn Powell, both of
whom were convicted at the last
term of court, but It had to be post
poned oi) account of the fact that
the lawyers representing these
young men were not ready. There
has been so many courts In this city
and aecllon during the past few
weeks that the lawyers have had all
of tbelr time occupied.

There are In tho Mallory Associa

New Proepoct.
The total number la twenty-eight,
and there aro those who think that
the churches should all come Into
one county association. It la ac
knowledged by nil that as the coun
ty Is cut up at present It la not
possible to unite In advaneng the
different phases of the work
could be done were all the churches
working together end .cooperating
with one another.
Should the churches of the Men,
Mallory and Tucker Association!
decline lo accept the Invitation to
come Into the Mercer Association It
Is quite likely that a movement
would soon follow to form a county
association.—Moultrie Observer.

Throat Today.
(From Saturday's Dally.)
white man i giving his name
as C. B. Taylor and claiming to ro-
stde at Owensburg. Ky„ tried to
commit aulciae in the city prison
this morning by cutting his throat
with a knife.
Just where he got the knife could
not be learned, but It waa thought,
that he borrowed It from a negro'
prisoner who wa« In Jail there yes
terday. Taylor waa arrested Satur
day night on account of hla queer
actions, Chief Dampler being unde
cided aa to whethor he waa crazy or
what was the trouble with him,
Yesterday the chief became con
vinced that Taylor was crazy. He
came to this city lately from Jack-
sonvlllo and n man who saw him
there said that he wna drinking, but
that he did not drink enough to
craze him. He appeared to be In
bad health.
Chief Dampler telegraphed to the
chief of police of Owensburg, Ky.,
asking him to notify Taylor’s people
of his condition. This morning the
chief received a telegram from the
Kentucky officer stating that hts
relatives resided there, but they
could do nothing for the man here
and telling Chief Dampler to uuo hla
own Judgment.
This morning Taylor got hold of
a knife and stuck It In hla throat,
but the wound Is not a very serious
one. He was later turned over to
the Jailer and will be tried for lu
nacy. Nothing Is known of him
hero, but It Is probable that he baa
had spells before,

HUB Shoes Abe Built By US with.that
knowledge, in mind, and are built to stand
the racket.
You know that 41 years of shoe making, is a pretty
good schooling,
When You Stop To Consider
seriously, you will realize also that, say six pairs of
shoes a year for each child means a good deal of
money. If HUB shoes will reduce the number of
pairs per year YOU WANT HUB SHOES. Try
them for a year. We know what they’ll do and wo-
want regular HUB shoe customers.
Make the Youngsters Happy
When you buy a pair of HUB shoes for the boy or girl
send us the box front, and we will send them an amusing
toy.
We believe the economy in HUB shoes will win your pat
