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.

After the bu»int: By the Young Ladies of Vienna—Win 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 I the by-laws by ne\t Thnrsday’s meeting, II oe al the home of Miss Bertha 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.
