Graham, of Bainbridge, was among the visitors from the "Oak City” in town yesterday. Miss Bessie Smithwick, of Clniro, is visiting Mr. and Mrs. AY. S. Brown, on Crawford street. Thomasvillc is not largely repre sented at the summer resorts. It is healthy enough at home. Mr. A. AA r . Ivey, president of the Thomas County Alliance, was in town yesterday. Messrs J. L. & VV. A. Pringle re membered the printers yesterday with a great big ripe watermelon. It has vanished. The Times-Enterprise yesterday morning cleared up the rumors about the big prize fight by giving the result to its readers. We were pleased to see Rev. A. C. Stevenson in town yestorday. He has fully recovered from a late attack of illness. Rev. H. D. Howren arrived from Cairo yesterday where he has been lecturing on prohibition. He is the guest of Dr. Bouchellc.

I’revatt has been added to the canvassing committee for the new road. And he’s a good one. Thomasyille Schools. Thomasvillc is proud of her two colleges, and she lias evinced her in terest in them by endowing them, and giving them a splendid patron age. Situated as Thomasvllle Is, geo graphically, she ought to receive a liberal share of patronage for both of her institutions of learning from Middle and Eastern Florida. AVithout intending to dictate to those in charge of our colleges, the Times-Exterpiiise suggests that in this age, patronage of any sort goes where it is invited, and to such places as seek it. A little judicious adver tising, through the papers and by personal application, in the sections of Florida named, would pay in many ways. It would secure a liberal attendance of pupils and gijjc on* institutions a reputation abroad that would invite pupils from other sections. Il is an old and (rite saying that nothing succeeds like success, which saying is hut another’rendering of another adage Hint the world wor ships tiic rising sun. If our colleges had an averags at tendance of 50 tu 100 pupils cadi from abroad, it. would lie the best in ducement that could be offered to at tract others. AYliat the Times-Ex- TKttrniSE lias suggested will secure Ibis number, or at least the good (lint may be gained is sufficient guarantee to induce the effort. The Times-Enterprise lias a pro found interest in all tilings that per tain to Thoninsvillo, and this interest is a sufficient excuse for what wo have said in this matter. Several of the leading life insurance companies ol the country have been well represented in Thornasville during .the past week, and as life policies are becoming standard investments, the various gentlemen have done well. You will doubtless read an article, taken from the Augusta Chronicle, which appears in this morning’s Ti.mes- Enterprise, concerning the Augusta & AVcst Florida railroad. It is well enough to remember that the building of the road to Cordele will surely in sure the building of the A. & W. F. R. R. The Times-Enterprise force put itself on the outside of that 55 pound watermelon sent up by Mr." Campbell last night. This may cause a tempo rary suspension of the paper. Ten weeks more of close scrutiny as to the sanitary condition of the town, is an imperative duty of the city fath ers and health authorities. Every dollar judiciously expended in this direction will be wisely spent. The contract for the new jail is to be let next Monday, the 15th, Let it be a good one. A thousand or two dollars more is comparatively insignifi cant when compared with the impor- ance of a first class jail. AVe will be building for future generations. The structure should be fully abreast of the most modern jails in the state. Mr. B, AY. Stone, of Mississippi, a graduate of the A. & M. College, of that state, is now with the Jennings’ Nursery, at Magnolia Place. Mr. Stone is a fine specimen of youug Southern manhood. The young gen tleman will he cordially welcomed to Thomasvllle, The many friends of Mrs. Scarbor ough, nee Miss Cina Craigmiles, will be saddened by the news that she is at the point of death at her home in Chattahoochee, Her mother, Mrs, I’, L, Craigmiles, is witli her. Henry Harrison ond Celia Wilsou were married Monday night by Rev. John Taylor, of the African Baptist church. The contracting partis are colored. Mr. J. N. Talley, of Valdosta, pass ed through the city yesterday. Nick is now with the Valdosta Times, and has a host of friends who wish him success in his new field, That was a jolly party which went out to Greenwood last night to cut a bee tree. At the hour of going to press the returns of the number of stings were not all in. Mayor Hop kins headed the party. Sec notice of Chairman AVliiddou, calling out the street workers. Now is the time when firemen and others who are exempt will smile a great big smile as they watch the marshal run down the three dollar men. The members ot the Thomasville Gun club had their regular weekly shoot yesterday afternoon. Several of the shooters of the club were absent. Freight Charges on Pears. The Ti.itEs-ExTer:c 1:1 sf. has heard considerable complaint from pear shippers on the score of excessive freight 011 pears. The charges on a car load of 600 crates to Now York by rail is $500, approximately, and it is safe to say that this enormous charge will strike the average man as being out of all reason, and it is equally safe to say that if the trans portation companies insist on kecpiiif it up they will crush out the disposi tion to ship by the all rail route, rath er than by steamer, as heretofore. The Ocean Steamship Company, in conjunction with the S., F. & AY. lty., will deliver crates In eastern cities for 30 cents, against 85 charged by the Atlantic Coast Line, and the Southern Express Company carries to the same points, via steamer, at 40 cents per crate. The pear shippers will do them selves a favor if they refuse lo ship a crate by the rail route, ambit is noth ing but fair that die transportation companies that have nursed tlie in dustry since its infancy, should re ceive the business,in preference (o an alien company, whoso only pica, is that they deliver the fruit in bulk and in better order, which plea is not founded in fact. The Bank of Thomasvillc. The semi-annual statement of this solid Thomasville institution appears in this morning’s paper. The showing made is a very gratifying one to the stocklioideas, and reflects great credit on the officers that have had its busi ness in charge. The deposit account, $130,103.27, is especially good for this season of the year, and shows that our home people not only have money .but that they are content to trust it with the Bank of Thomasville. The surplus and undivided profit account, $24,000 approximately, shows that the business of the institution lias paid well. The Board of Directors numbers some of the best known of our busi ness men, and the officcis are gentle men of undoubted financial ability. Col. AVright, the president, is a veteran in the monetary world, and Capt.Sniitli is without a superior, as a cashier, in the state. The assistant cashier, Mr. B. If. Wright, has a bright future ahead of him, for he has shown a splendid aptitude for the duties of his responsi bie position. Sold Again. Mr. George Fearn, the]wide awake real estate agent, keeps Thomasvillc dirt moving. lie has, within the last day or two, concluded another aalo of valuable real estate. The property is on Carroll Hill, and is estimated to be worth thirty-five hundred dollars. Thomasville real estate is always in demand. It knows no downward movement. Fortunes have been made on it; and fortunes will yet he made 011 it. Stick a pin down along side of this prophecy. The property was sold to Mr. /. T. Millsap, of North Carolina. Eight Hundred Crates Yesterday. Agent Lore Wilder informs us that the Express company shipped about eight hundred crates of pears yester day. An extra express car lias been put on and even with that help it has been found insufficient and another one will he wired for from Wayrross. A number ol gentlemen were stand ing at the express office yesterday, watching the shipments of green pears being made. One ot them suggested that the growers ought to send the trees along with the fruit, lor the latter was of too tender an age to be separ ated from its parent. And it might be added that if the shipments of green pears continues, the trees and all future crops will be worthless, for the reputation of both will be gone. —— •»•-.«- Tliomasville will he well represented at Tate Springs, Tennessee, this season. Several of our people are already there and next week Air. and Mrs. George Fearn, Miss Bessie and Mr. E. 1’, Fearn will leave for this popular resort. Mr. T. J. Burney,) who is well known here, is in the city in the in the interest of the Atlanta Journal, a bright, newsy anil enterprising dai ly paper, which lie proposes to deliv er in Thomasville by 7 o’clock a. m., with the very latest news .that can he obtained. This will give Thomas ville what sho has long needed, an attornoon paper with telegraphic service early the following morning. Air. Burney will make a thorough canvass of the city. County Alliance Officers. At the meeting of the suh-Alliances of Thomas county last week, the fol lowing officers for the ensuing year were elected: A. \V! Ivey, President. T. \V. Ballard, V. P. B. H. Pope, Secretary. \ D. N. McKinnon, Treasurer. J. M. Rushin, Chaplain. A. Q. Moody, Lecturer. E. I,. Neel, A. L. AV. M. Bat row, D. K. Henry Nismeth, A. D. K. H. H. Gaddy, S. A. I DELEGATES TO STATE ALLIANCE. A. Q. Moody, J. AI. Rusfcin; Coun ty Trustee, John A. Harvin. Hughes vs. McIntosh. The case of Hughes vs. Alclntosh, which was tried at the April term of Thomas County Superior Court, and decided for the defendant but was taken up’to the Supreme Court by the plaintiff". The Supreme Court has affirmed the decision of the lower corn t. The point in the case was the right claimed by Hughes to close an alley which runs in the rear of Dr. ATcIn- tosli’s place, corner of Jefferson and Dawson streets and the residence of Mr. S, B. Burr. AYe noticed yesterday, that an ac cident had occurred 011 the E. T. A'. & Ga. K. R. nine miles above Alacon. The Telegraph in noticing tho acci dent,thus pays tribute to the presence or mind and womanly tenderness of a Thomasville lady: “Among the passengers was a Airs. Elder of Thomasville, who was espe cially kind to the wounded men, and who they will ever remember with the kindest feelings.”. Among the numerous railroad moves now being made the attention of the reader is eallcd to the article tak en from the Augusta Chronicle, out lining a projected road from the city of Augusta, via Thomasvillc and on to Florida. This move shows that Thomasville is attracting other lines. This should nerve our people to the building of the Cordele road. There are three dangers, in delay ; one, that other parties may occupy the territory; and then that such a parly would reap the profits which will aceruo to the builders of the road, and thirdly, that Thomasville could not control the road in her own interests- NOT A PIMPLE ON Hitt NOW.

New Lease on Life. Consumption is lieriditary in my family died of it. From early child hood I had symptoms of lung disease; had asthma until I was twelve years old; had a hacking cough which con tinued constantly, and when I was 25 yca^s old began to have a hurting in my breast, rftid frequent pains in my shoulders, and sharp cutting pains when I coughed.

(Botanic Blood Balm) made by Blood Balm Co., Atlanta, Ga., will cure blood pois on in its worse phases, even when all other treatment fails. A. P. Brunson, Atlanta, writes: “I had -4 running ulcers on one leg and G on the other, and felt greatly prostrated. I believe T actually swallowed a barrel of medicine in vain efforts to cure the disease. With little hope I finally acted upon the urgent advice of a friend and got a bottle of B. B. B. I experienced a change, and my despondency was somewhat dispelled. I kept using it until I had taken sixteeu bottles, and alllhe ulcers, rheumatism and all other horrors of blood poison have disappeared, and at last I -— sound and well again,after an experience of twenty years of torture.’’ Robert Ward, Muxey, Ga., writes: “My disease was pronounced a tertiary form of blood poison. My face, head and shoulders were a mass of corruption, and finally the disease began eating my skull bones. My bones ached; my kidneys were deranged; I lost flesh, and life became a burden. All said l must die, but nevertheless, when I had used ten bottles ot B. B. B. I was pronounc ed well. Hundreds of scars cam now be seen on me. I lave now becu well over twelve months.” 14. S.
