Mr. Lonnie Dekle’s cottage in East End has been completed. Geo L. Gill of New York is among the traveling men at the Whiddon. Prof. Wenzel, of Paris,' is at the Stuart, cn-route to Pensacola. Do you want another railroad. If so, how much do you want it? My. Frank Hubert left yesterday lor Atlanta and other points, to spend the summer. Mr. F. A. Davis, chief operator of the S. F. ifc W. Ry., was in the city yesterday. Miss Mamie Hansel!, of our city, has been visiting Miss Lizzie Pasco, of Monwcello, Fla. The pulse of Thomasville’s pros perity never beat more steadily than now, and the new road to Gordelc will bring an infusion of new blood. The railroad telegraph offices are crowded with dispatches. New offices arc being opened up at various small stations during the melon senson. Mrs. F. L. Kennedy and little daughter, who have been attheStunrt lor several weeks, lefi yesterday for Amcricus to join her husband. Mr. Gage, of Madison, Fla., has leased the new hotel in Monticello, Fla., from the Turner Bros., and will open it under the name of “St. Elmo,” on or before Oct. 1st. Sixty thousand dollars raised in an hour to build a new railroad is a good record for Thomasvillc. Now is the time to subscribe. Hardy Ward, former guard, has been installed keeper of the chain- gang since Maj. Gofl’s illness, and- Mr. Frank Wilson lias been added to the force as guard. The business of the railroad tele graph office at this place has increased so that an assistant will have to be added. One will be sent hero imme diately. Mr. Ilobt.

Ho will try and have it ar- [ranged. With one hundred thousand dollars ' as a nucleus, which our people will undoubtedly subscribe in stock to our new road, Tbomasville is assured of another outlet, at no distant day; and it will be one of the best paying roads in tbo state. The Last Night of Commencement. The saying of Sam Jones that an admission fee thins out the crowd is not always true, for a fine audience gathered in the chapel last night to bear the closing exercises of South Georgia college. Evsn the rain and clouds could not keep the eager peo ple away. The opening number by Prof. Wen zel, was given in an artistic way that showed him a thorough knowledge of the divine art of music. The quar tette “Old Black Joe,” by Messrs, Burr, Stark, Linn and Smith was so good that it received an encore. The next number, the song by Miss India Hunter, was a gem and was so thoroughly enjoyed that it received an encore which brought out another charming song, as thoroughly appre ciated as the first. Another quartette by Mess. Burr, Smith, Linn ami Stark, “Way down upon the Suwannee River,” was re ceived witli rapturous japplausc. Following this came another song by Miss Hunter, “The Cows are in the Clover,” which reccivcn another encore. The fair singer came before the ncdicncc and bowed her thanks. THE AWARD OF THE MEDAI.S. The award of the Medals to the best declainter and best debater was made by a committee who undertook the delicate task at the request of President Lovejoy. Here is the re port. G. M. Lovejoy, President S. G. A. C. We, the undersigned judges of the contests for the medals to ho presented to the best debater and declaimer at the annual commencement of your in stitution, are unanimous in our opin ion that Mr. J. L. Roberts is entitled to the medal for the best debater, and Mr. Jamison S. Roberts to the one of fered for the best declaimer. We desire to make honorable men tion of Mr. R. G. Mitchell, Jr., for his graceful and meritorious efforts as a declaimer. Mr. C. W. Holloway also deserves honorable mention for the inimitable originality he displayed as debater. In compliance with the re quest of many of those who were present, we respectfully ask Mr. J. L. Roberts to furuish the Times-E.vter-. rniSE with a copy of his speech for publication. Respectfully submitted, C. S. Bondurant, ) T. N. Hopkins, ; Com. J. H. Merrill, ) At the.conclusion of tho reading of the report the medals were delivefed by Mr. Alox R. Jones with appropriate remarks. The prize offered by Prof. Wright, a handsome gold pen, to the best stu dent in mathematics in the higher class was nwnrdcd to Miss Irene Davis, and was also delivered by Mr. Jones. The awards as made by the com mittee are in thorough syrapaty with the opinions of those that heard the declamations and debates. The Times-Enterprise will gladly publish the speech of Mr. Roberts. It was a gem of wit and eloquence and while in cold type it will lack the magnetism lent itiby the inspiration of the graceful orator, it will be splendid reading. The dramat’c Cantata, “Trial by Jury” was splendidly rendered and was received with emphatic favor by the atidicnec. W. W. Linn made a model judge and the happy termination to tnc breach of promise suit inaugurated by him is a pointer to judicial officers in such cases. Miss Rosa Neel made a. splendid Plaintiff in the ease, and her tearful sorrow at the perfidity of her lover, Mr. Alex -Smith, himself an excellent Jcharactcr, excited the sym pathy of the hearers. S. J. Cassels, Jr., made a fine court officer, and John Stark, as counsel for the interesting plaintiff, had an excellent conception of his part. The jury performed their duty well, though if the truth were known, they were not without bias, as between the plaintiff and the defendant. The bridesmaids looked lovely, as they always do, and while we arc not blessed with prophetic ken wo wager the prediction that nil of them will play first part in a drama of which the cantata fast night was only a pro totype.

The commencement cxercics of the South Goorgia College, for 1880, have come to a close. Throughout they have been interesting, and despite inclement weather during two nights ot their continuance, they have been well attended. Citizen’s Meeting. Mayor Hopkins gives notice this morning that a meeting ol' the citizens of the city will he held in the city hall this evening at 8 o’clock, to dis cuss the railroad plans given in yes terday morning’s T im ks-E ntkr p ft the. Thomasvillc will turn out and the road will he built. Come out to the meeting and bring your friends. The most learned advocate in the world could not say more tor the pro posed railroad than is already known. Every business man in town realizes the benefits that will come with a new outlet. The soundest business men of the community are identified with the project, have put their money into it, and will he in control. They have put their money into it and will give it their time and attention, be cause it will pay, and because it will help Thomasville. These reasons ought to be sufficient to induce every citizen to conic into the eompauy, on the ground floor. The new railroad will give our be loved city such Tin impetus forward as she has never known. We speak confidently because we feel jubilantj over the prospect. In less than a twelve month we expect to hear the cry: “All aboard for C'or- dele and the points north.” In the meantime all aboard for the meeting to-night. The reporter, in the hu r ry of get ting up an account of the concert at the South Georgia College chapel, night before last, omitted to mention an instrumental piece: “Ye hanks and Braes O’Bonnic Doon,” executed in splendid style, by Miss Annie Hurst. An exquisitely rendered duet, by Misses Bifilic and Pet Woodson, was also omitted. Getting up an account of the kind at one or two o’clock in the morning and reading the proof by the early dawn is calculated to rattle a reporter somewhat. , Tho Boys In Grey. The Thomasville Guards turned out yesterday afternoon for the first time in their uniforms. The ranks were full, and as they marched up Broad street to the soutid of the drum, many compliments were paid to the soldierly bearing of the hoys. The step was in perfect time arid the flank movements were good. The uniforms are very handsome, and the wearers are worthy of them. In Jail. Sheriff Hurst jailed three negroes yesterday, charged with malicious mischief. One of them, Henry Jack- son, drove into another man’s wagon and broke it tip. He gave bond for his appearance next Wedncsd Aleck Cochran and Edingburgli Braccwell, tore down Dorsey Gibson’s fence, for which offense they now lan guish in jail. Mr. E. W. Marsh, Jr., died this morning at 4 o’clock at his father’s residence, on Washington street. lie had been ill for a long time with con sumption and a few months ago visit ed Thomasvillc, Ga., with the hope that the change ol climate might check the progress of disease. He grew worse, and returned home a few weeks ago to die. Day by day he grew weaker, and this morning, just as the light of another day was breaking, his soul passed from earth peacefully and calmly, as a child lies down to sleep.— Atlanta Journal. ■ »■ — The type made us attach Jr. to the name of Mr. S. I,. Hayes yesterday morning. His friends know that lie is still a young man and maybe the cold and unsympathetic type wished to re turn him to primeval youth. The union meeting ot the western division of the Mercer Baptist Asso ciation was commenced at Salem church, near McDonald, yesterday, and will last until Sunday. The visitors who have been spend ing commencement in the city with friends, are beginning to return to their homes. Card of Thanks. I I take this method ot returning my heartfelt thanks to my friends during my times of affliction. May God’i choicest blessing rest 011 each one of them. C. M. Robinson. Come out to the railroad meet ing to-night, at City Hall. Catch the enthusiasm of the occasion and help to make Thomasville what she ought to lie, the Metropolis of -South Georgia. While we are building our uew road, and you may be assured it will lio built, it is as well to remember that Thomnsvillc mud be kept clean. The warm summer suns give point and force to the suggestion every day. » Messrs. Geo. W. Byington and If. H. Cobh, of the Mutual Life Insur ance Company, who have been in the city for a couple of days, left yester day for Bninbridgo. Mr. E. M. Mal- lctte, the local ageut of the company here, accompanied them. ' Miss Julia Stark did some splendid work in making “Trial by Jury,’ last night, a success.
