Where is Wychc Liuton? Mr. S. G.' McLendon left for At lanta on Thursday morning. And so the Dixon brothers got in the first bale of cotton, after all. Rev. A. W. Clisby will occupy the Presbyterian pulpit Sunday morning, Dr. and Mrs. Bower, and Miss Hattie Winn, are expected home this afternoon. Mayor Hopkins left on the noon train, Thursday, for the North. He will bo absent some time. Will Mitchell and Remur McIntyre have the bulge on the cotton busi ness : they bought the first hale. Aud the LcContcs still pour in—and pour out. 'flic crop is larger than most people supposed it would be. Alderman Merrill, mayor pro tem will hold the municipal scales during Mayor Hopkins absence. And lie will hold them evenly poised, too. Wc understand that Rev. Mr, Clisby will occupy the Presbyterian pulpit, at the morping hours for ser vice, during the pastor’s absence. The rain yesterday put a damper on the frieuds of the Guards. It terfered, very seriously, with the ice cream festival in the Brighton build ing- Jute scored one yesterday morning by being snugl/ wrapped around the first bale of cotton brought to town. But it was not brought in by an Alli ance man. Rev. Mr. Hnrbencr has been given a vacation by his congregation. He left for tlio North on Wednesday. All will wish the faithful pastor a pleasant outing. Dr. Culpepper received a telegram last evening stating that his brother Sterling was not doing well, and all indications were had. The Doctor went down fast evening to be with him. H. Wolff & Bro., gLeaders of Styles and Low Prices" 109 & 111 BROAD ST Have you seen the new cotton bag ging which the Alliance men are going to ust? Messrs Mitchell & McIntyre received the first consignment, several rolls, ol the new bagging yesterday morning. Call and sec it. Quite a number of the delegates to the Ge irgia Horticultural Society re turned last evening. They report a delightful time and very profitable meeting. The society adjourned Thursday evening to meet next year in Port Valley. This is a good selec tion. While the contractors and builders ere at work on the second story of Wade & Dukes’ brick store in Boston, yesterday, the wall next to Mallettc & Vann’s drug store gave "way, falling on top of the drug store, which is a one story budding. The roof was crushed in, but the ceiling slopped the fall. No one was hurt. Will Probably Come. President Lovejoy has been engag ed for some time in looking around fbr a first-class man to take charge of the military department of the South Georgia College. “The fight man is virtually se cured” said Mr. Lovejoy, yesterday, “Who is he, and where docs he come from ?” asked the reporter, who caught the first remark on the “fly.” “The gentleman’s name is Miller, Capt. A. G, Miller,” said Mr. L. “He is a graduate of the South Carolina Military Institute, better known, per haps, as the “Citadel Academy” of Charleston. Captain Miller is highly recommended by Gen’l Johnson, Superintendent "of the Institute, and others. He stood first in his class mathematics, and graduated with the rank of Captain of cadets. The gen tleman has had several years ex per icncc in teaching, occupying positions in some of the leading institutions of the county.” Mr. Lovejoy, as will be seen, very much pleased with having se cured the assistance of Captain Miller. He will no doubt be found fully equal to the position. In this connection, and while speak ing of the military feature of the col lege, which was revived at the last annual meeting of the board ol trus tees, wo wish to emphnsize the folly and absurdity of putting boys who are wearing knee breeches, perhaps, into uniforms. It is a farce. If there arc not enough boys, of suflicent size to constitute a company of cadets, it would be better to drop the uniform business, rather than drag in a lot of “trundle bed trash,” to the discomfort of the boys, and the expense of the parents. The military feature is all right; but it should be confined to boys more than knee high. There are some points worthy of serious consideration at the hands of every citizen of the town, in the New York letter published elsewhere. The writer’s suggestions are timely, practi cal aud to the point, in reference to the park question, the beautifying of premises, and other questions affecting tiic growth and prosperity of Thomas- villo. Read the letter. The Festival. Notwithstanding the wet condition of things caused by the rain yesterday afternoon, the ladies in charge of the ice cream festival in the Brighton building, lor the benefit of the Guards, were on hand ready to wait on custo mers, at neat little tables, covered with snow white linen, and upon each of which, rested a tastefully arranged lot ofbeautilul flowers. The customers in the afternoon were lew and far between, but whoever heard of Thom- asvillc ladies, when engaged in a good cause, getting discouraged? And there were enough attractions there to draw a crowd—even through the mud. This will be apparent when the names ol the following young ladies, who acted as waiters, are given: Misses Julia Stark, Stella Baker, Honorine Mitchell, Minnie Evans, Mattie Ball, Dena Mitchell, Lily Smith, Emma McIntosh, Lily Stuart and George Mitchell. The room presented a brilliant ap pearance last night, as the reporter modestly entered and looked around, Reporters arc all modest. A number of the members of the Guards in their handsome uniforms were mingling with the throng, mingling, mostly,with the fair waiters, whose smiles and win ning ways were simply irresistible. The boys just marched right up, took their cream and planked down their change like little men. The affair would have been more liberally patronized but for the inclement character of the even ing. Wc understand that quite a nice sum was realized. He Found It. A young moke stepped into Mr. Jo. Foss’ the other day and called Tom, joe’s assistant and store hoy, into the back portion of the store. “Is this good money?” asked the young Arab, exhibiting to Tom’s astonished gaze, a twenty dollar hill and a ten dollar bill. A briefexamination convinced Tom that it was good. “Don’t say any thing nbout this,” said the hoy, turn ing nud walking out of the store. But Tom did say something about it. He told Mr. Fass about it at once, A short turn on the street and Mr. Fass found that Mr. J. A. Linton had lost thirty dollars on the street somewhere, a $20, and a $10 bill. The young hoodlum tins hunted up and the money recovered. Mr.,Linton gave the boy a dollar for finding the money. A Very Heavy Rain Fell in Thomasville yesterday, about 1 o’clock, and filled our sewers and streets with running water. At the intersection of Crawford and Jackson streets quite a cavc-in occurred in the newly filled excavations for sewer hut it is to be hoped no damage was done. (Communicated.) Location for the New Jail. Editor Times-Enterprise:—I no ticed your article, some weeks ago, in reference to the new jail, soon to be built, and heartily concurred with you in your choice of site. As stated in said article, the location is of much importance, and should be selected with a view to the future as weH as the present gqpd of the town. The site you suggest, to—wit: the vacant lot between the old white and colored cemeteries, besides being obtainable at a less cost, perhaps, than any other, is eminently appropriate in all other respects. The lot is amply large, the location high, dry and healthy, and by reason of its surroundings would never hinder or interfere with the future growth of the town. It has been but a few years, comparatively, since the present jail was built. Then it seSrn- ed sufficiently remote from business and residences, but how long has it been an eye-sore, if not a nuisance? Any similar location, other than the one you name, it is reasonable to be lieve, would become objectionable in a much shorter time. The location suggested is the only one that I can think of where the jail would not be objectionable and injure surrounding property sooner or later. Here the present surroundings have already done their work, and the injury perma nent. The erection of the jail there will have no effect upon the surround ings, neither will the surroundings in anywise affect the prison. It may be proper to state that I have no pecuni ary inlerest in the matter, wherever the jail may be located, but speak lrom honest convictions, having only the good of my town at heart. - Citizen. PIMPLES TO SCROFULAR. A Positive Cure for Every Skin, Scalp and Blood Disease except Ichthyosis. Where Shall the New Jail be Built? Phis is a question which not only interests the citizens around Thomas- villc, but those ol the county as wcl\ 'Citizen'’ discusses the question briefly, but to ihc point, in another column. His arguments are entitled to the re spectful consideration ol those in au thority. The Times-Enterprise has no interest whatever in any particular location. Its object in this, as in all public matters, is, to the best of its ability, to be a faithful guardian of the public weal. While not presuming to be infallible—far from it—we hon estly think the vacant public lot, be tween the two cemeteries, is the best place fbr the jail, lor ihc reasons already set forth at some length former issue. It is not much further than any proposed location back on Oak or Stephens street. And there would be less danger of, escape in carrying prisoners to and from the court house, from the jail. Broad street would present fewer avenues of escape. There has been prepared in the court house, at the expense oi the county, a temporary prison, perfectly safe, where prisoners can be kept during the day. The site wc suggest is not valuable for any other purpose. The title to it is in the county or town- If in the former, then there need be r.o expense in buying a lot. And we learn the cheapest lot offered elsewhere is priced to the county at $i,ooo. It is doubtless worth it; but if the coun ty has a lot, this $1,000, might be saved to the tax payers. Rut, if the lot belongs to the town, it could no doubt he had lor a very reasonable uni, as the property is worth blit ittlc on account of its location. Wc conceive it to lie a duty to call the attention of the locating committee to these suggestions. Of course they will do what, in their soundest judg ment, is best for the county. No one doubts this. It is proper to add that some of the most prominent citizens endorse our views on this subject. Before dismissing the subject, as the question will be settled on Mon day, we would add that the next best location, in our opinion, other than the one mentioned, is the old Colored Academy lot, corner Broad and Calhoun sts. This belongs, we understand, to the American Mission ary Society. .And they want to sell it. The Preferred Accident Mutual Association, Mr. T. N. Hopkins agent at this place, presents its claims to the public through our columns. As will be seen by the certificate of Mr. E. M. Smith the company is prompt to settle its liabilities, and offers a rea sonable scale of charges. There it no telling when a:i accident may occur, and it is well to be on the safe side.
