Our people still retain pleasant roe-
ollcctiohs of the meeting of the State
Horticultural Society in this city last
year. The meeting was composed of
citizens from all parts of the state and
was a fine representative body of
Georgians. Our people, as they al
ways do, strove to entertain them in a
creditable manner and to make their
stay with us as pleasant as possible,
One of the delegates, who is now look
ing to Thomasville as a future home,
in a private letter to one of our citi
zens, says:
"My experience on last summer’s
visit to your town satisfies me as to a
welcome. I never met a people with
whom I was Letter pleased, and I lie
lieve this was the sentiment of every
.member of the horticultural society.”
That was the first and only visit of
the gentleman to Thomasville, and
impressions then formed were such as
to create the desire to locate here.
Wc trust he will consummate his
plans and locate with us. Thomas
villc has a place and a welcome for
all such clever gentlemen as we know
him to be.

his funeral.
Special to Bainbridge.
C'apt, Fleming and General I’asscii
gcr agent, W. M. Davidson, arrived
yesterday morning on the morning
train from Savannah, and took a

Wooden Crossing.
The wooden crossings from Starks
corner to J. (). J. Lewis, and Leu is
to Sheffields, and from the latter
corner to Jergcrs were torn up yester
day, on account of being badly de
cayed, and new sound timbers are
being put down/ instead. The cross
ings at the interscctipn of Jackson
and Madison, need attention badly.
They are in constant use.
All indications point to one of the
most brilliant and successful seasons
Thomasville has ever known. More
applications for houses to rent, and
for bbard , both in hotels and in pri
vate boarding houses, are being re
ceived than ever before,
Jos. Beverly.
Attention is called to the advertise
ment of Jos. Beverly, who succeeds
Fife & Beverly, in the extensive mer
chandise and milling business, at
Meigs. No hotter man than Joe.
Beverly can lie found, and those who
deal with him will find him fair and
square.
The fall term of the South Georgia
College opens to-day. Some of the
former scholars from a distance have
already returned, to bo hero ou open
ing day, while othors will return this
week. The school boys and girls
have had a long holiday and will re
turn to their studies witli renewed
energy and ambition.
At the suggestion and request of
President Lovejoy, of the South Gn.
College, we slate that, for the present,
at least, only one uniform suit will he
required by the cadets -of the college
The bide are about all in and it is safe
to say that the full suit, caps and
all, will cost somewhere between ten
and fifteen dollars.
“Through the kindness of a friend
we were furnished with a copy of the
Times-Enterprise, in which we noticed
that Mr. Hardy Paulk marketed the
first hale of cotton in Cairo. In jus
tice to Mr. Samp. Williams, who may

The action of council (see proceed
ings) will satisfy those who object to
park bonds, on the probable large
expenditure on the grounds. These
improvements will not be made until
other, and more pressing work, is ac
complished.
If Thomasville would keep, of in
crease her winter business, she must
preserve Paradise Park. This propo
sition cannot be successfully rcluted.
Rev. N. B. Ouslcy and family left
for Thomasville Monday, where they
will make their future home. Mr.
Ousley is an able divine and Cairo
will sustain no small loss in the remo
val ot his family from our midst.—

Tho Purchase of the Park Endorsed—Tho
People Speak.
More than three hundred tax payers,
many of them the largest in the city,
met at the court house last night to
discuss the purchase of Paradise Park.
Mr. W. R. McIntyre was made
chaiiman of the meeting, and Mr. E.
M. Mallettc secretary.
At the request ot the chair, Mayor
Hopkins explained the object of the
mating.
Mr. E. M. Mallettc offered the fol
lowing resolution':
Resolved, That it is the sense of
this meeting that bonds should be is
isuSW for the purchase of Paradise
Park.
Mayor Hopkins proceeded to ad
dress the meeting, giving clear and
convincing reasons why the park
should be purchased. His arguments
were simply unanswerable. His re
marks were listened to throughout
with the closest attention.
Dr. T. M. McIntosh responded to
repeated calls, to simply endorse the
purchase.
. Mr S L. Hayes submitted a few
remarks, closing with a suggestion that
the colored tax payers, many of whom
werc.prcscnt, be heard. This brought
Messrs. Hamilton, Carter, Royal, Hen
derson and Smith into the discussion.
We put it mildly, when saying that
Jack Carter brought down the house.
It was a good park speech, without
doubt.
The feeling was all one way, no one
appeared to oppose the movement.
There were about three hundred in the
meeting.
The chairman, at the close of the
discussion (in which opponents of the
park were invited to participate) put
the resolution offered by Mr. Mallettc.
It passed unanimously, lacking one
vote, and that was not a very loud one
The meeting demonstrated one
thing, clearly: the citizens ofThom-
nsvillc,white and colored, are in favor
of tho purchase of Paradiso Park.
The monthly meeting of tho “Gen
eral Benevolent Society” will he hold
to-day, Sept. 4, at the Library, at 5 o-
clock, )>. in. The members arc re
quested to attend.

The park meeting last night was a
