Animat Life In Cities.
A writer in an eastern
suggests as a possibility of the
future the disappearance of
animals from the large cities.
prophecy is by no means
nor is its fulfillment .likely to be
remote a matter.
Any one who will compare the
traffic facilities in any large city of
to-day with the facilities in the
same town ten years ago will see
how- largely the horse lias been
driven out of use in the metropol¬
itan centers. The cable cat, the
trolley and elevated road practi¬
cally monpolize intramural transit,
and the time is not far distant
when the horse will have ceased to
figure at all in public transportation.
Added to these causes the bicycle
has come into play and is now the
most popular of the means of indi¬
vidual locomotion. In the near fut
ure looms the prospect of the auto¬
mobile carriage, with its noiseless
tires and capacity for high speed.
Except for purposes of pleasure
riding it is hard to see how the
horse is to have any enduring voca¬
tion in the city at all. He must
stiH be used for some time for pur
poses of heavy cartage, but apart
from .-..8 this MMpPIVIIIlV and the coaches of wealth
and fashion he appears to have no
lasting occupation and no future.
It is by no means unreasonable
to forecast a time in the near future
when, excepting for occasional
of highbred dog, there
will be but Kttle brute life of any
description in tbe metropolitan
Centers. -T'
One result, of course, Wiy be

Personal Paragraphs About People You 11 Know
On last Thursday evening the
Methodist choir was entertained at
dinner most delightfully by Mrs. J.
B. Simmons.
A novel feature of the menu was
fried chickens, which, having been
raised and furnished for the enter
taioMCd of the choir, by the au¬
gust I* ro ^- •'* • A. Fessenden,
had quite a Harvard flavor which
distinguished them, decidedly, in
the opinion of those present.
The assembly never spent a more
charming evening, perhaps, for the
graceful hostess and genial hosts
exerted thejr large faculties for the
pleasure of the singers, and success
was the inevitable ‘result.
***
Mrs. Pearson, the charming and
accomplished wife of the celebrated
evangelist who is conducting the
series of meetings in the auditorium
at present, is doing some noble,
helpful work herself, The Wo
man’s Prayer Meetings, which be¬
gan last Tuesday afternoon at 5
o’clock at the Presbyterian church,
will prove to be very beneficial to
those who attend, because Mrs.
Pearson's object is to establish a
sympathetic study of the scriptures,
and her talks are not only fluent
and eloquent, but are womanly and
beautiful, and cannot fail to touch
and inspire - those who hear them.
Mr. and Mrs. E. P. Simpson have
the pleasure of entertaining Dr .and
Mrs. Pearson during their stay in
Toccoa.

Mr. T. A. Capps and bis charm¬

scription to The Times.
“Death Loves a Shining Mark."
A shadow was thrown over our
entire community on Friday moru
g, Aug 16, when the announce
ent was made of Mrs. Craig’s
_
leath. The sad announcement was
[nticipated, as she had been in de¬
fining health for some time 5 but
till there was a lingering hope
that she might recover.
For ten long weeks she suffered
and not a murmer ever escaped her
lips.
What an example of Christian
patience and resignation t
All that could fie done for her
relief was done by her physicians,
and by the watchful and tender
care of her beloved house-hold, but
human arms were too short.
God willed that she should leave
her pleasant ( home and devoted
family and friends on earth for that
purer and brighter and better home
with her Saviour and loved ones
gone before. •
To the bereaved family we ex¬
tend our sympathy, and we take
no risk when we say that the sad¬
ness attending her death disappears
when we lay aside our selfishness,
and remember that she is perfectly
happy.
Her life here was one of faith
and good works, and we conclude
that her life now is one of joy and
peace. ;
Mr. Marshall's Death
Mr. R. H. Marshall, father of
Mrs. I. S. Netberlapd, died at the
latter’s residence last Sunday morn¬
ing at the age of 70 years.
Mr. Marshall had only been sick
a few days and at no time was he
considered dangerous till just be¬
fore his death. He had been a Res¬
ident of Toccoa for many years,
making his home with Mrs. Moth¬
erland.
Mr. Marshall lived a conscien¬
tious Christian life and was loved
by all who knew him, and was a
member for many years of the Bap¬
tist church.
The funeral services were con¬
ducted from bis late residence by
his pastor. Rev. A. E. Keese,Mon¬
day afternoon. The family have
the sympathy of the community.

day that Mr. B. H. Derby, The

A Word of Warning.
There seems to be some little
hitch among, the promoters and
subscribers to the stock of the cot¬
ton factory, which threatens to
rupture the. whole affair if it is not
speedily and amicably settled.
Let the election of officers be a
secondary consideration and the
erection of the flctory and the pro¬
gress of Toccoa be the first and
grand thought of all 1 •
There is not the slightest doubt
bnt the disectors will elect the
best men for executive officers who
will run the plant for profit to it«
Let the good work of raising the
necessary amount of money to build
the factory go on, and whenever
the election of officers comes off
“may the best man win.”
Almost a Centenarian.
We met on our streets one day
this week Mr. Henry Fricks, who
resides a few a miles below
Toccoa bn Tugalo ri\Wr. On the
7th of June, last, he celebrated his
ninety-sixth birth-day. He wai
reared and has spent ninety years
of hi* life near Walhalla, S. C.
Mr. Fricks is full of life and
vigor and moves about as sprightly
as most young men, works daily
on the farm and enjoys good health,
due, no doubt, to his - strictly tem¬
perate habits. He frequently vis¬
its his old home in South Caro¬
lina making the distance of thirty
mile* on foot in on* day.
Mr. Frick# remembers seeing
the first wagon ever in this country,
at the age of ij, which was con¬
sidered a great curiosity in those
days. ' _
He la for Sliver.
In an interview at Korcross a

himself on record, and that too for
a doable standard.
