nmmn VOL 2. NO 22. VIENNA. GA. WEDNESDAY. AUGUST 27.1902. TWICE-A WEEK $1.00 PER YEAR the Third letter FROM MR. HEARD He Writes of the Beautiful City of Denver, Col., aud the Many Sights Seen. THE BIBLE INSTITUE MEETS HERE MONDAY Several Prominent Mlalsters Will Attend Arriving at Denver in the latter part ot the afternoon, worn out with a long and tiresome journey of about (HO mile* and in addition to this a thirteen hours lay out, you can just imagine how tired, hungry and dirty we were. We soon found lodging at the Windsor Hotel, one of the oldest hotelsln the city, but by no means the most expensive. I learned that you pay all the way from $2.50 to $25.00 per day but we fared very well at a $2.60 house. After taking a bath and olean shirt we started out to see Denver City. We first went to the city park where same forty or fifty thousand people had collected to get out of the city and hear the imported Italian band whtch hod just arrived. Denver Is a very wealthy c'ty, some of the largest operators 1 < mining interests live here, and there i < quite an aggregation of wealth hero. Denver is the capital Of of the state ni.d county seat of Arapa- hoe county and her public buildings are magnificent; her business houses are not so high as in some cities but they are handsomely built and out of good material, and white Denver is an old city site shows n good deal of modern rchitecture In the construction of her uildinga. Her streets are asphalt and her side walks are the best I have ever seen; her streets are.so smooth that I saw a negro riding a bicycle and carry' ing a basket of fruit bn bis head with out holding either bicycle or fruit, These people have good horses, good vehicles and dress well, as a rule. They are the nearest like Georgians of any ~ people I met. IhMiverhnso population ip~nflW,OQt) to200,000, and they areal) kinds of people'and go alt the gaits. You’ll see the old thnd, the miner, the sport, the dude, the common every-day business man, the up-to-date merchant nmjthe confidence man, I was at this point on a Sunday and saw'hunters returning from their days sport, and fishermen use Sunday more than other day; • I was in the reading room at tho Windsor writing my' home ' letter when all at once in an adjoining room I heard ‘'GeorgiaCamp Meeting” break loose in full blast, and I was so aralnated that I walked down the hall and found quite a crowd two-slopping to tho "Georgia Camp Meeting.” They wmltsed and danced, sang and drank and had all sorts of a time. I do not know whether these occasions are com' 'mon or not but everything is open in Denver on Sunday. I, a* some of you know, take a drink occasionally; well, Denver is equal to the emergency and we found no trouble In being accom modated in this line. ' The altitude of Denver is 6198 feet, and the thermometer was 106 when we were there, though the nights are cool and this is the case all along the Pacific Slope and Boeky Moontaina. Though I have said Denver had been a eity quite a while, she was nothing but n mining oamp in 1868. and when the great Colorado gold fever waaat fever heat, great crowds from the west flocked here and formed a camp at the junction of Cherry creek and Platte river and from this beginning, sprang the beautifulclty of Denver, now known as "The Queen City ot the Plains.” Beautiful city indeed, her location with the great range of the rocky'mountains on the west, and the great plain* on the east to the Missouri river. Denver is worthy of the admiration and atten tion of every one whq sees it. Among the principal placet of interest is her Grand Opera House, Broadway Theater, United States Mint, Custom House, Postoffice, County Court House, and her grand State Capitol, occupying hree entire blocks and cost three million dollars, and Is boilt of native .granite and all the floon and wainscot- ing are of marble. There la also the City Hall, Denver University, THnlty M. E. church, St. John Cathedral, College of tho Sacred Heart, Baptist Female College, and man) other grand buildings, bofh private and public.

Pastor Vienna Defeats Cordele. Vienna's crack ball team went down to Cordele Monday afternoon and crossed bats with the team at that place, and as usual, defeated them with ease. The Vienna heavy hitters were not long at batting Etheridge, Cor- dele'a star pitcher, out of the box, and also put the second one out of business'in a few innings, While the third one would have been done likewise hud it been necessary. Stovall, Vienna’s pitcher done some fine, work, and caused 14 to fan the air. While very one-sided, the game 1 was quite interesting. The line up was as follows: VIENNA. Position. CORDELE.

Colorado points, a great tourist city, as her nil. rood facilities are fine and it Is estima ted that as many as 600 to 1000 tourist visit Denver daily, and hacks and car riages are doing a fine business. Tho principal hotels are the Brown Palaoe, the Albany, the St. James, the Windsor, the Markham, the Metripole, the Im perial, and possibly twenty-five or thirty others. All white labor Is used in most of the hotels and hacks. I must quit and finish some other tjme.

Mr. H D Wood, one of Dooly’a best farmers says that the only objection be has to the "Old Hickory 1 wagon bought of uc is that he has to keep his mules in a trot to keep the wagon from running over them. This proves they are light running J. P. Heard*Sons rfey's Hoi •md Tat Na Col. G. W. Busbee has just pur. chased the Ward plantation near Drayton from Rev. P G McDonald, which contains 560 acres, paying |S per acre for same. This is a very fine plantation and Col. Busbee is already figuring with a saw mill man. to move: bit mill 't| there for the purpose jof- sawing some lumber with which to erect several new tenant houses and im proving the place in various ways. Ha will also put a wire fence around pnrt of the creek swamp and try bis band at raising cuttle, Rev. McDonald in turn, pur. chased from Col. Busbee all of his land lying west of the G. S. & F. railroad adjoining the city limits, consisting of 350 acres at $35.00 per acre. Mr. Vice President Wadley will leave in the next day or two for Talla dega Ala., where he goes to inspect the Birmingham and Alantic rail road antecedent to negotiations for the purchase of that road as a con necting link, in the Atlantic and Birmingham, to Birmingham. The Birmingham and Atlantic road operates from Talladega to Pell City, a distance of 46 miles on a direct course with the proposed course of the Atlantic and Birming ham. It is said that the owners of the B. &. A. are anxious to sell to the A. & B. and the only consideration with the A. & B. is the physical condition of the line. If it can be bought reasonably and can be put in perfect condition for less than to build a new line, it is probable that a deal will be perfected. The surveying corps of the A, & B. have reached Lamina, Ala., a point about 30 miles beyond the Georgia liue and are pushing on to Talladega. Pell City is only thirty miles from Birmingham and if the B. & A should be purchased by the A. & B., it would greatly facilitate the perfection of the A.& B. into Birmingham.—Waycross Journal.
