day by Judge Bower, IIou. A. L.
Hawes aud Hon. R. A. Connell.
Judge Bower went on'to Savannah.
Rev. W. J. Williams, pastor of the
Baptist church, left yesterday afternoon
for Duncanville, where he goes to
assist Dr. Manning in a series of
meetings at New Ochlockonee church.
The meeting will continue during the
week.
A postal card, written in London,
dated the 24th ult, from Mr. Clarence
A. Lloyd, informs us that his European
tour has been cut short by indisposi
tion, and that lie would sail from Liv
erpool next day, the 25th, lor the
United States. Clarence has a host
of friends here who wish him a pleas
ant voyage home and a permanent re
covery.
Mr. and Mrs. L. P. Roberts, of
Cambridge Manor, will leave for the
North to day. They will be absent a
couple ol months, perhaps. Upon
their return, or as soon as the season
opens, their popular house, will be
opened for Northern guests. Their
Thomasvillc Iriends. and this means
every one, wish them a .pleasant out
ing and a sale return to the land of
the pines.
An Important Health Question.
As will be seen by reference to
proceedings of the Board of Health
that body reccommends a public
sewer with which the Gull, Virginia
House, Cambridge Manor, South
Georgia College, and other
public and* private buildings on
•the West side of Broad st., may make
connections. They might, also have
included thp Stuart, as in that direc
tion lies the natural drainage from
that hotel. The jail will also be on
that side of the dividing ridge and it,
too, will have to have a sewer connec
tion. A common sewer has been
provided for the Piney Woods, Mitch
ell, Masury, and other public and
private houses on the East side of the
town. Now let the town give the
hotels and others, similar accommoda
tions on the West side of Broad st.
They are entitled to it. It is a physi
cal impossibility to drain or sewer the
West side ol Broad st., to the East
side of the town. Nature has put a
natural barrier in the way. The first
section of the main sewer can be put
in, and then, as in the care of the
main sewer on the East, the work can
be gradually done, so as to divide
up the expense.
Returned.
Bob Evans, who has hecn spending
the past seven weeks in New York,
Chicago and other Northern and
Western cities, returned home Sunday
evening. He reports having had a
most delightful time, but says it is
quite warm up north, and he was glad
to get back to the country air of
Thomasville.
Off for North Carolina.
Mr. J. N. McKinnon and Master
Johnny Bass, his grand son, left yes
terday for Murphy, N. G'., where they
will spend two weeks enjoying the
cool mountain breezes and pure water
of North Carolina. Dr. T. S. Hop
kins and Hugh McIntyre are also at
Murphy.
Good Shooting.
The Thomasville gun club had one
of their regular weekly matches yes
terday afternoon. There was some
very fine shooting done—among others
by Whiddon and Stark. Messrs Bal
four and Cook surprised .themselves
and the club by putting in a number
of fine shots. The following is the
score:
First Match—Ten singles: G. Stark
and Cooke tied lor first; Stark won;
Whiddon 2nd.
Second Match—Six singles: Starfr
and Whiddon tied; Staike won; Cook
and Livingston tied; Livingston won.
Third Match—Ten singles: Stark
rst; Cook and Whiddon tied for 2nd;

nedoc tied; Varnedoe won.
Sugar Falling.

Dr. and Mrs. Bower returned yes
terday afternoon from an extended
tour through the West.* They report
a delightful trip. The Doctor looks
ten years younger, and Mrs. Bower—
well, she always looks young. Friends
are pleased to see them at home,
sweet home, again.

GEORGIA—Thomas County.
To the Honorable County Commissioners
of said State and county:—The undersigned,
your petitioner, respectfully slioweth that he
is a resident of said county in said State,
that he is a farmer, cultivating lands lying
on both sides of the track of the Savannah.
Florida k Western railroad, situated about
one mile nnd n half cast of the town of Cairo.
Said railroad divides the cultivated lands,
nnd your petitioner respectfully slioweth
that most of said land that is in cultivation
lays on the opposite side of said road from
where lie resides; that all of his corn nnd
nearly nil of his cotton is on the opposite
side of the rond from where he resides, and
that lis is iinnliic to get it across the truck
of said railroad company without a crossing,
and Hint lie is now without one. And your
petitioner respectlully asks that you grant
him an order lor a private right of way
across the track of said company, as pro
vided lor by the statute of said State which
is pointed out in the code of said State bi
sections 720, 721, 722, 723, 721 nnd 737, and

New Opening for Somebody.
Look at the Imperial Life Insur
ance advertisement in this issue, and
write for the agency to Mr. J. H.
Reeves, Southern Manager, at Eufau-
la, Ala. This is a good opening for
some one wanting a good life insur
ance agency.
No Selection.
It will be seen by reference to the
official report of the Board of county
commissioners, that they have not
yet made a selection tor the jail site,
which was set tor yesterday. Several
of the Board being absent, and the
matter being ot importance, and of
long standing, the members present
deemed it advisable to defer action
until next meeting. Read the report
of the board elsewhere.
Rev. Mr. Williams of the Baptist
church held the fort against satnn by
himself on Sunday night. There wero
no services at any Of the other
churches.
Street sprinkling is not necessary
now-a-nights.
A Cutting Affair.
Two negro delivery wagon drivers,
Sam Bunyan and Reuben Wiiiiams, got
into a difficulty near the tesidencc of
Mr. A. C. Brown’s on Dawson street
yesterday morning. One of them, Sam
Bunyan, who drives one of the Pringle
Bro’s delivery wagons, cut Reuben,
who drives Mr. A. C. Brown’s delivery
wagon, with a razor. Mr. Brown,
who happened to be near, separated
the combatants, or the results might
have been more serious. Dr. McIn
tosh was called in and dressed Reu
bens wounds. There was only one
bad cut. Sam had slashed him across
the breast, cutting to the ribs, right
over the immediate region of the
heart. Had the razor slipped in be
tween the ribs, Williams would have
undoubtedly been instantly killed.
Bunyan was lodged in jail under a
warrant charging him with an assault
with intent to murder. He has, by
this time, perhaps, had time to reflect
pn his action.
Clogged up.
The new sewer being laid on Jack-
son street was clogged up with clay
by some carelessness in the hands
leaving the end open, when the heavy
rains of the past few days washed the
clay in. An effort was being made
last evening to wash the clay out,
but it did not work satisfactorily, and
it is a serious question, as to the best
way to remedy the trouble. This is
only an early illustration of the difficul
ties in the way of a sewer laid 20 feet
from the surface.
Mon. Alfred Leon, a thorough bar
ber, is now in charge of the barber
shop at the Stuart. Being a French
man he is polite as well as skillful in
his profession. He was, lor years, in
the Palmer house, Chicago, one of the
finest in the United States. He is
prepared to wait on permanent or
transient customers, and guarantees
satisfaction in every instance.
Judge Hansell will go down to Mon-
ticcllo this alternoon.
Mr. S. G. McLendon returned Irom
a short trip to Atlanta yesterday.
“Boston is about sure of a canning
factory for next season, and now an
evaporator should be established.”
The above from the World, shows
that Boston is not asleep. A canning
factory, and an evaporator would pay
there—and they would pay in Thom
asvillc.
The report of the accident on the
two story brick store-house in Boston
the other day, appears to have been
exaggerated. We learn that some
misplaced timbers displaced a lot of
freshly laid brick which fell on the
roof of the adjoining building. Very
little damage was done.
