Col. Peeples would make the litli

lie is a tried anil true democrat, an

of Cherokee county will insist upon

A most heinous crime was com
mitted on Thursday of last week
on the person of Mrs. J. K. Ogle-
tree, at Saffold in Karly county.
T.vo negroes entered the store of
Mr- Ogletree, ostensibly to do
some trading After the goods
were wrapped, both negroes sprang
upon him with pistols in hand, and
said they were highway robbers
and expected to take what they
wanted, and if he resisted, they
would kill him as they had many
others. Being unarmed, he found
himself entirely nut their mercy.
Mr. Ogletree and wife reside at
the station house a short distance
from the store. The negroes, after
helping themselves to all the goods
they wanted, demanded his cash
on hand at the point of pistols
and compelled Mr. Ogletree to go
into his house and surrender the
money. They overpowered Mrs.
Ogletree and each assaulted her
while the other held a pistol on
the husband. The negroes then
lied to the swamps. As soon as
the Oglctrccs could give the alarm
posses were organized who went
in pursuit ot the perpetrators of
this revolting crime. The two
negroes have been captured and
lynched. There scents to have
been a band of them, organized
for the purpose of committing all
kinds of depredations. Several
have aready been made away with
and the people of that section are
making energetic efforts to rid
themselves of such characters.

Tt was with « peculiar feeling of
gratification the writer was privi
leged to record on 1 hursday, July
27lh, his arrival at the fortieth
mile post on life’s journey from
the cradle to the grave Somehow,
in the years past, we had thought
this pleasure would he denied ns,
yet wo have had no premonition to
that effect nor any reason by pre
mature deaths in our family or
otherwise to expect that our pil
grimage here would he cut otf at
or before tho fortieth birthday was
reached, hut, somehow, we have
felt apprehensive up to the present.
However, through the blessings
of God, we have come to what we
pray is only the mid-day of a life
that may hereafter he radiant with
and full of losing service and good
deeds to nil niaNkind and aocepta-
ui Inst, to God and worthy of an
eternal home above. When the
summons to quit this life may
come we do not know, hut certain
it is, almost, that we are now on
tho decline of life, and the next ten,
twenty, thirty or forty years, are
we thus hlesKod, will puss by more
swiftly, seemingly, than have (lie
forty years now brought to a close.
Forty years is a long while to
live, a long while to “count each
setting sun and view no worthy uc-
tiou done,’’ hut we know these for
ty years have not been wholly spent
in unconcern for otlinrs and we be
lieve some good tins been garnered
from tho advantages and opportun
ities presented. If not, God pily
iim! Surely these forty years have
been crowded with blessings to us,
blessing beyond onr merits. God,
in Ins goodness, has blessed iih in
a thousand nnd more ways, bless
ing us and family with health,
strength of body and vigor of mind
to fight life’s battles, and saved us
from disease and the hitter pangs of
sorrow and death in our family,
save only tlint of father when we
were quite young. We have, too,
been singularly blessed with good
friends, true and tried, who have
done so much to make our journey
happy, peaceful and prosperous,
ami whose kind ministrations nnd
friendship will ever be gratefully
remembered. Yea, verily, no one
has been blessed us we, and surely
none feels more thankful to God
and nil mankind than do we.
More than twenty of these forty
yours have been spent with and
among the people of Canton and
of Cherokee county, and surely the
lines of no one hove ever hbon
thrown in n more pleasunt place.
May wo ever lie similarly blessed 1
Now, as we sturt adown the de
clivity of life and take tho shady
side of the hill whose apex has
been reached, we feel like register
ing n vow to use our utmost
strength of mind and body tomuke
our remaining years hero the best
in point of our service to God, to
all mankind and to our oountry in
general. We ure passing through
this lifo but once, and, therefore,
what good we may do, what kind
ness we have to oiler another, what
devotion we can render to God
should bo done now. The past is
passing and gone; we cun, there
fore, only live in the present and
for the future. May wo not, then
ask nnd confidently expect .lour
kindly aid and prayers that ivhero-
ever we may bo and whntever the
future,our energies and efforts may
he rightly directed. B.F.l*.
Mr. G. H. Snyder, a well known
citizen of Lawrence, Kaa, said:
"I am now seventy year* of
-ge. About three years ago I ex
perienced a coldness or numbness
iu the feet, then creeping up my
legs, until it reached my body. I
grew very thin in flesh, appetite
poor and I did not relish my food.
At last I became unable to move
r.bout. I consulted several dis
tinguished physicians, one telling
me I had locomotor ataxia, an
other that I bad creeping paral
ysis. I look their medicines but
continued to grow worse. Almost
a year ago a friend advised me
to try Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills
lor Pale People. Before I had
finished my first box I found they
were benefiting me. I used twelve
boxes in h11, and was perfectly
cured. Although it is six months
since I used my last pill there has
l>ccn no recurrence of the disease.”

when trouble comes, when adver

Col. Robert G. Inscrsoll died
quite suddenly last Thursday at
the home of his son in-law near
New York, ami his remains were
cremated yesterday.
Atlanta, already ths largest ahre
center in the south, has just added
to her supremacy by the formation
of the Draper-Coggins Shoe Compa
ny. organized for tbe purpose ot do- | c f imslnes* iule/rity and iieraonal
ings wholesale shoe bnsim so. The
firm will be located in tbe Markham
house block, at the east end of tbe
union depot, occupying five floors
of same. A feature of this strong
new firm’s policy will be the pur
chase of southern goods wherever
possible.
The new Arm will be composed
of Captaiu W. W. Draper, Mr. John
J. Coggins, Captain John H. Rich
ards, of Cantou, and Joseph K.
Brown.
Captain l)ra|>er is knowu to the
irude throughout the Houth. He
Ims been one of the most prominent
factors in Atlanta's commercial suc
cess. He has spent twenty years
of bis life in tbe dry goods and shoe
trade. Captain Draper was for it
long time connected with tbe old
organization of Draper, M sire <k
Co. At tbe death of Mr. W. A.
Moore the new firm of Kiser, Moore,
Draper & Co. was formed, which
continued until the death of Mr. M
C. Kiser. Captain Draper, who was
prominently ami actively counected
w'.th the above firms, then formed
tbe partnership Inm which he Iiiih
just retired, under the old name of
Draper, Moore A Co. The name
of Draper stands for strength uud
leliahility wherever he is known in
the business world.
Mr. John J. Coggins is known to
almost every man in Georgia who
knows wbut a shoe is. Fifteen
years ago he came to Atlanta and
entered business with Draiier,
Moore & Co., and has been promi
nently knowu to the shoe business
since that time. As a traveling
man John Coggins hns as many 011s
turners ns he has friends, and his
friends are legion. Shoes lias been
his s 1 ndy since he came to Atlanta
and few men are as good judge of
a slme as lie. Atlanta’s drummers

judged ai r mil by the charac er of
the men who represent her huMness

largely due lo Cuplaui Richard’s
financial judgment. He will move
his family to Atlanta and will he a
valuable addition to Atlanta’s social
and business life.
Mr. Joseph E Brown, tbe remain

that institution, 'lie will, however,

This Slit day of July, 18JH,

Tlm above, from n late issue of
the Constitution, tell.* the story of
the oiganiz ition aud business pur
poses of the Draper-Coggins Shoe
Coiup.uiy belter lIih.ii wo c<>uld do,
und it is the new firm to which we
made reference in tin* Aiivanok last
week.
C’apt. Richards has been one of
the most, prominent and wealthy
citizens of Cherokee for many jeais,
having moved hero in 1848 from
North Carolina, his native state,
and indentilied himself with the
interest of this section. He has rep
resented the county in tlm balls ol
legislation and been a leading spirit
in church and educational affairs of
tbe county, as well as iu business cir-
clesand the material development of
thecjnoty aud community in which
Im bus lived. Since tbe organiza
tion of the Bink of Canton he bus
been cashier, and no bank in Geor
giu, we believe, has made a finer
record than has the Bank of Canton
under his management and control.
As staled above, Captain Richards
will move to Atlanta this fall to
assume active financial and office
managemeut of the Draper-Coggins
Shoe Co. He aud Capt. Draper
will lie the credit men of tbe firm.
The removal of Capt. Richards
and family will be a loss to the
comity, but there is not one but who
congratulates him upon hi* business
connect!ous aud wishes for Captsiu
Richards nnd each individual mem
ber of the firm uM pos sible succijs-*.
John Richards, Jr, wil’ go into the
office with his father as bui kkeepi r.
