Read what E. M. Mallctte has to say about renting houses, rooms aud farms, in his renl estate column. Mrs. and Miss Mamie Kottman, left yesterday morning for a visit of several weeks, to friends in Milledge- ville, Ga. Miss Tadie Jones left yesterday on the fast mail for Valdosta, where she will make an extended visit to Iriends and relatives. . Miss Minnie Evans nnd little sister went, up to Camilla yesterday on a short visit to the family of Rev. J. II. Underwood. The tin roof is being put on the Gulf house. Mr. Gunn says lie will turn over the keys to the lessee, Mr. Philpot, by the list of October—or thereabouts. Mr C. T. Carroll and wife ol Mon ticello, were at the Stuart last night. Mr. Carroll, who is a prominent mer chant in his town will leave this morn ing tor New York. Something over toity dollars was realized at the lawn party, on Tuesday night. Very good. And then some of the participants had a hundred and folly dollars worth'ol enjoyment. An interesting and readable letter in to days paper, from our old friend, and quondam European correspon dent, Dr. G. Q Colton. He is fishing at the Isle of Shoals, ir. 120 Icct water and catching piles of fish. The Senate committee on temper ance have reclined on Mr. Aligood’s bill permitting a Georgia Major, or Col. or any one else, to get drunk on his premises. The hill made it a misdemeanor to get “how come you so ?” any where else. Mr. J. TI. Perkins, of Monticello, was registered at the Stuart yesterday. Mr. Perkins is going to erect a hand- I some opera house in Monticello, and was up here for the purpose of con sulting architect Gunn, in reference to ' the building. Mr. Perkins is one of I the public spirited citizen-' of his town. j Wc had the pleasure of meeting J our old-time young friend, Marshal ; H. Connolly, on yesterday. He is now connected with the L. & N. R. II., headquarters at Jacksonville, ' aud was here looking after the inter- ! csts of that railroad. He is an efficient ' official and a clever young man. I A grand cake walk took place at the city hall Tuesday night. Hand some prizes were offered. The first was awarded, after .a lively contest, to Miss M. A. Robinson, and the second to Miss Ad die Young. There was a large crowd piesent, including a num ' her of whites, who were drawn out to ' see the style of walking. 1 A letter from Mr. Win. Miller, who has been enjoying the cool breezes and sparkling waters of Nacoochee, in forms us that Jim Pringle and, Ed < Thompson nrc both fat, and that lie leaves with his family for Highlands, N. C. He concludes by asking us if ' it is hot? Distance only saves him from being shot; as it is, we hope to get even with him some day. There is a point at which forbearance ceases to he a virtue. He lias reached it in I thus tantalizing the poor editor who can’t get away from ni.s desk night or | day. Cat-Ology. Elsewhere will be found an extract from the Constitution, touching the late experiments of Dr. Brown-Sequard's theory about producing an elixir which rejuvenates old age. The Constitu tion, with the keen insight into things which characterizes that journal, sug gests an elixir composed ol the “con centrated essence” of a Thomas cat. Now it is well known that every cat has nine lives; so that the essence would, of course, contain nine times as much life giving properties as any other animal This is a strong point. We take to the Thomas cat theory. There is a Thomas cat, and his mid night mate, in our neighborhood. We should be pleased, very much pleased, delighted in fact, if some of our local physicians would utilize the “concentrated essence” of the afore said Thomas C— and his midnight mate, in testing the Brown Sequard- Hammond theory. The concentrated caterwaul of these cals, in the stilly hours of the night, when nature seeks repose,when the weary and good should be permitted to enjoy their rest, is something fearful. Bootjacks, wash bowls, bed slats, old hair brushes, fire shovels and other missiles, have failed, up to this writing, io have any ap preciable effect. The caterwauling still ^bes on, goes on with screeches, yells and y-e-o w-s liberally interspers ed, screeches and yells and .yeows calculated to elevate the capillary sub stance straight on end. Yes, we favoi;, emphatically, the Thomas cat theory in the premises. The aforesaid Thomas cat, when calling lor his M a-r-i-a-r, is an unmitigated nuisance. His voice is sharp, shrill and penetrat ing, penetrating even to the bone and marrow. And his male, on the occa sion of these noctural .serenades, res ponds in like tones, in tones calculat ed to shatter and shiver the nerves of the strongest and most robust. Wheth er on house-top, shed, in bark yard, alley or lane, the circumambient air is tremulous with the wild, weird, ear piercing yells. It is only the most devout, those who have attained unto perlection, in fact,—and there are but few such—who can, on these occa sions, suppress profane thoughts. The old Adam will, almost invariably, get the better of the renewed man, under the demoralizing influence of these midnight serenades. Wc have on one or two, unusually aggravated occasions, thought bad words. Only thought them, however. A plea of extenuating circumstances has been filed in all of .these cases; and the defendant hopes for a favorable ver dict. Without it he’s gone up With fur standing .stiff on end, his back in rainbow shape, lungs in good working order, perched on some con venient gable—beyond the reach of ou raged man—thoroughly engrossed with the surroundings, alive to the momentous issues of the hour, feeling the responsibilities which rests upon him, no animal, known to ancient, modern, sacred or profane history, can come as near raising hades on earth, as a male Thomas cat.

The bold burglar was abroad again on Tuesday night and attempted to fcntcr .the residence of Mr. Davis Smith, on Clay street. Mr. Smith saw the man, a negro, as he was in the act ol reaching for his pants, which were on a chair nerr the window, and rising reached for his gun, when the negro became alarmed and ran. Mr. Smith shot at him, his gun being loaded with small shot in one barrel and buck shot in the other, but it unfortunately hap pened that he shot the wrong barrel, the small shot, and did not get his bird—if he hit him at all. Another Attempt Was made on Tuesday night to commit a burglary. The Young Fe male College was visited and a chair taken from the front porch and placed under the window ot President Baker’s window and an effort made to enter. This falling, the thiet tried several other windows but did not succeed in getting in. In the morning the chair, which had been freshly paintcd.exhib- ited the prints of bare feet, and every evidence to show that an earnest effort had been made to get in. Load your shot-gun and sleep with both eyes open. Thomasville Iron Works. Havitig a leisure hour to spare yes terday (reporter’s have plenty of leis ure now, it is so dull), the reporter visited the Thomasville Iron Works. Mr. Campbell very kindly showed us through the different departments nnd explained the working of the various machines. Speaking of machines, this company has some of the finest and best labor saving machines made; machines adapted for all kinds of work in iron, brass or other metal, aud they are all so perfectly geared and put to gether, that when running there is hardly more noise made than by an ordinary sewing machine. They are fitted up for doing any and all kinds of repairing, and we saw several en gines in the shops which had been overhauled aud made as good as new. They have in connection a moulding department, where they mould brass castings. Mr. Campbell informs us that their business is steadily growing, and they arc doing ns well as could lie expect ed. They have to run day nnd night, up to 9 or 10 o’clock now, to keep up with their work, nnd he thinks that at no distant day they will have to ma terially enlarge their plant and put up brick works. So mote it be. When such industries prosper the community prospers. These works now employ from eight to ten bauds, and some of the most skilled workmen to be had. Investment Company. By a resolution of the board of di rectors of the Thomasville Real Estate and Improvement Company, new stock can now be taken to the amount ot one hundred and thirty-eight shares. Payments are two dollars a month a share, beginning with August, 1889. This will he known as the second se ries and will differ from the first,which started one year ago, only in drawing dividends one year later than that. This company has made over one and a half per cent a month since i.ts organization, on capital paid in. The secret is the compounding of interest monthly. Tim Turn Cut sire. Anil iiis Minim'. Burglar Items. Mr. Smith ought to have fired his other barrel nt the hold burglar on Tuesday night. The burglar is no respecter of the majesty of the law: lie went right through Judge Hanscll’s clothes. A good motto: Shoot the burglar on the spot; or an where else you can Tribute of Respect. Death in all of its phases is a sad reality, hut when it conies to the strong and vigorous man, it is doubly sad. Such thoughts impress us when contemplating the death of our brother, W illiam P. Moncricf. In the vigor ol manhood, surrounded by a loving wife, dutiful children and rela tives, our brother suffered untold ago nies for one week, breathing his last, hit him. A gentleman said yesterday: “I went home lust night and found that my wife had nailed up all the doors aud windows. I tell you it was mighty hot.” The general impression is that ’tis “home talent” engaged in the work. Most likely. The burglar took a literary turn on Tuesday night: lie tried to go through Young Female College, lie ought to have been given a load of buck-shot for a diploma. Good advice: Keep your house well fastened and sleep with one eye open. There is a fine opening here for some gooil detective work. Dr. Snipe, of Centrcvillo, Fin., was in the city yesterday. on the 30th day of July, 1889. At the time of his death he was a mem ber of big Creek Alliance, No 24. We recognize in Ibis affliction, the divine hand, and bow submissively to God’s will. To the bereaved wife and relatives, wc extend our deepest sympathy, and pray that this affliction may work out for them a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory. Resolved : That a copy of the above tribute be spread on the minutes of this lodge, a copy furnished the family ol the deceased, also to the Ti.mk.s- Enterprise and the Southern Alli ance Farmer with a request lor publi- I cation.

He brought them down and placed them in jail, and they will be tried for that and other charges.
