REV. ALEX VV. BEALER
Preached a Fine Sermon at nethodist
Church Thursday Night.
The services at the Methodist church
on Thursday night were not so largely
attended as they would have been had
the weathor been more favorable.
. y Rev. Alex ltenler. Held editor of the
Ohristlnn Index of Atlanta, held the
services and preached a splendid and
eloquent sermon. He took his text
from the 63rd chapter and eleventh
verso of Isnih: “Ho shall »eo the
travail of his soul and shall bo satis-
fled.'’
Those who were so fortunate as to
be present will never regret the fact,
for they listened to n strong, logical,
eloquent sermon such as it is nut a
person's pleasure to hear often.
Rev. Bealer dissected his subject,
and by his splendid reasoning and dear
logic, he held his audience deeply in
terested until the last word had been
spoken, and all came away feeling that
they had received much good by list
ening to this gifted man talk.
Rev. Bealer was at one time
porter on the staff of the Atlanta
Journal, bat he severed his connection
with that paper and became field edit-
. ’ or of the Christian Index, in which
. work he Is nuw actively engaged. He
is a powerful man In the great cause oj
Christianity, and takes a great delight
• in his work.

Will Appear nt the Opera House in this
City Saturday Night.
Vienna show goers willoe given
an opportunity to be entertained at
the opera house here Saturday
night, Fob. 2S1I), in the coming of
•■The Floyds," mind readers,
magicians.and novelty entertainers
The press of the titles in which
they have nppeared is very lavish in
its praise of their efforts, and they
present some very strong testimon-
ials from other cities. The Floyds
‘ure engaged by the Alkahest Ly
ceutn Bureau, which fact, within
itself, is a sufficient guarantee of the*
quality of the entertainment they
give.
They will appear at the opera
house ip Vienna, as stated above,
on Saturday night, and we bespeak
for them it good house.
Anything that is sent out by the
Lyceum Bureau is very apt to he
good.
One of the largest denis that has
been made in this part of the state
in a long time, in machinery, was
consumated at Rich wood last Sat
tirdny morning, when \lr. Ed L.
Thomas, of the Valdosta Foundry
and Machine Company, purchased
al! the machinery, engines, etc., of
tlie Parrott Lumber Company.'
The Parrott Lumber Company
was one of the largest mills in the
state, owning many miles of tram
road as well as machinery for -all
sorts of mills. They employed
scores of the state convicts and over
an hundred mules were used by
them in hauling logs to their lines
of toad. The stock was 6old three
or four weeks ago to Lewis & Pat
terson, of this city, and now the
balance of the mill plant tails into
the hands of Valdosta parties
It is said that the machinery which
Mr. Thomas bought last week i?
valued at forty thousand dollars and
that it consists of everything in the
mill line, including a number of
locomotives, engines, boilers, saw
mills, etc.
It is not known yet what will be
done with the large purchase,
though it is highly probable that
much of it will be brought to this
city und worked over in the shops
ot the Valdosta Foundry and Ma
chine Co. Other portions of it will
be sold, the entire purchase having
been made us an investment
The purchase of this large amount
of machinery puts un end to the
Parrott Lumber Co., ut Rtchwood
which has bean for fifteen years the
largest saw mill in this section of
the slate.—Vuldosta Times.

Meet Again Thursday.
The young ladies o( this city met with
Miss Lucy Heard Tuesday afternoon and
organised the Novelty Club, the object
ot which is to be more social and to im
prove themselves in fancy tftjrk. The
members ot tlie club are very much
enthused and are expecting u bright
future. The officers were elected as
follows:
Miss Lucy Heard, president.
Miss Bertha Leonard, vice-president.
Miss Lilia May McDonald, Secretary.
A cortimlttce was appointed to draw up

The News is reliably informed
that the cotton oil fompany is se
riously considering a proposition lo
erect an ice plant in connection
with their oil mill and electric
light plunt.
Such on enterprise would he
quite a boon to Viennn in more
limn one way. It would make the
securing of ice nn easy matter; and
would be a matter ot great conven
ience to the people here.
The promoter* of the enterprise
can ret: assured of the loyal sup
port and patronage of the town in
their undertaking.
We trust ihe report will be fully
verified by the erection of the plant
at no distant day.
It is just such diversified in
dustries ns these that make a town,
and Vienna should let no chance
escape her that promises anything
for the good and upbuilding of the
town. It is to be hoped that the
gentlemen who have the matter
under consideration will urrive at
a favorable decision and / ercct the
plant without delay.
Such action on their part would
always redound to their credit as
enterprising and progressive citi
zens.
all of which be accepts with the
aif of a man who is perfectly con
tented and happy with this life and
the tilings it brings.
Mr. Moring is a sly chap, as al)
hlf friends have found out, and he
amply demonstrated that tact Tues
day, when he and Mrs. Martha
Morton, of Jones county, were
quietly married at tlie Brown
Hbusc in Macon by Rev. Dr
White, pastor of the first Baptist
chinch, of that city.
Both I lie btide and groom man
aged tlie affair in a magnificent
manner, and even Mrs. Morton’s
daughter, who came to Macon
with tier mother, did not realize
what was up until it wusall over.
The Macon News in its report of
the marriage says: '‘This will be
rather startling, not only to the
people of Dooly county, but also
to the children ot Mrs. Morton, for
there were ho preparations for the
marriuge, so fur as the friends and
relatives of the contracting parties
were advised. The couple decided
that they wanted to marry, and
that the easiest way to succeed was
to be perfectly quiet about it until
after the preacher had pronounced
them husband und wife
Mrs. Mutton came' over to Ma
con (his morning to attend to some
business affairs.* * * Mr. Moring
knew she was comtng lo Macon
and knew that she would be at the
Brown House. He wired Mr. R.
L. Kemp, of the Postal' Telegraph
Co., and asked that all tlie prelimi
naries be arranged. At 2:30
o’clock Mr. Kemp and the minister
went to thc-hotcl, where Mrs Mor
ton and Mr. Moring were nwaiting
them and immediately tlie cere
mony was performed.”
It is needless for us to say any
thing regarding Mr. Moring, us he
is thoroughly known in this city
and county, where lie is held in the
highest esteem and consideration.
The bride ts from Jones county
and is a lady of culture and high
social standing. She has a grown
daughter and three sons. Her sons
are graduates of Mercer, one ot
them being the present represent
ative of that county.
After tlie ceremony was per
formed in Macon, they boarded the
train and came to Vienna. They
are now staying ut tlie home of
Col. Busbee where they will be
tor the present.
We join in the avalanche of con-
gratulutions which is pouring in on
the luippy couple

The weekly papers of Georgia
have an organization. Why is it
that they do not uta that organiza
tion for their benefit in a business
and financial way, at well ns in
pleasurq ? Why is it that we do
not get together and arrange a
uniform, fixed rate for foreign ad-
vcitisements? And then stick toil.
We doubt if any papers get what
they should for this class of adver
tising. We can alt get it by , a
