The Jail Set on Fire.
The jail was set on fire, Tuesday
night, about 9 o’clock. It was set in
a cell occupied by five negroes charg
ed with various offenses. The fire
was extinguished before much dam
age was done. The department re
sponded promptly. Au investigation
of the fire is being made by Sheriff
Hurst and Marshal Spair.
Another Fire.
A few minutes past 7 o’clock last
evening, an alarm of fire was sounded.
It proved to be the bath house attach
ed to the residence of Mrs. Fisk, of
Boston, Mass., and located on the
corner of Crawford and Monroe
streets. The fire was extinguished
without the aid of the fire department,
though the boys turned out promptly.
A lot of wood and a numberof house
hold articles vere stored in the house.
Parties who were first on the ground
say there is no question about the
structure having been saturated with
kerosene. This makes the second
house kerosened and fired within 48
hours. Should " the miscreants be
caught—well, they wil! not fare well
A Restaurant to be Opened.
Mr. S. C. Van Dyke, of Waycross,
has leaded the Brighton store, now
occupied by jeweler Brown, and will
open, about November 1st, what
1'hofna-ville has long needed, a ^first-
class restaurant. Mr. Van Dyke has
been for a long time manager of the
railroad restaurant in the depot at
Waycross. The changes necessary in
the store will be made at once.
Looks Like Incendiarism.
The barn of Mr. A. I). Kike, who
lives on Washington street, caught, or
was set on (ire Tuesday night, a little
after dark, hut was extinguished
before any serious damage was done.
As kcroBcue was found to have been
poured on different parts of the build
ing, it was evidently llie work of an
incendiary.
Some Good Work.
Mr. John L. Davis is putting in a
large pair of Fairbank’s wagon plat
form scales.for Mr. John T. West, at
his warehouse. Mr. Davis recently
put in a similar pair of scales for Mes
srs. Stegall & Davidson, at Metcalfe.
The scales balance to an ounce, show
ing that Mr. Davis understands exactly
how to put in scales.
Mr. E. L. Turner, who has been
employed in the Times-Enterprise
office for some time, left yesterday for
Valdosta, where lie takes a position on
the Times. We part Irom Mr. Turner
with sincere regret. He is steady as
a clock, and a first class printer in
every respect and in every depart
ment. We cannot loo strongly com
mend Mr. Turner to the Times people,
or the good ettizens of Valdosta. He
is worthy of their confidence and
esteem.
Governor Gordon, Commander of
the ConfederatejSurvivors’ Association,
has appointed Mr. Kobert G. Mitchell
one of his aides. There will not be a
more gallant representative of the
‘•Lost Cause’’ on the Governor's staff.
Mr. Mitchell embodies every true ele
ment of the citizen-soldier. He is
without spot or blemish, is a typical
Southerner, broad and libttal in his
views, and the peer of any man in
Georgia.
Mr. II. E. Stringfellow, the new
foreman of the Oil Mills, was called
to Montgomery, Ala., yesterday by a
telegram announcing the death of his
wife’s mother at that place.
Levy’s dry goods house will be
closed Saturday the 5th inst.
The council met on Tucsdny even
ing in special session, for the purpose
of going over the city tax books. It
is safe to say that whilo no one will be
lowered, it is very likely that a good
many will be raised. You see the
council hold a full hand, and stand
ing pat, they can, with impunity,
raise the other fellow. They only got
to the C’s on Tuesday night. The
work was resumed again last night,
and will be continued until completed.
The Papiphlet Brought Him.
Mr. W. L. Corrigan, of New York,
is at the Stuart. Mr. Corrigan lias
been spending his winters in Florida,
and is just from St. Augustine, where
lie went intending to spend the win
ter, hut found the climate too
damp. Coming across a pamphlet
of Thomasvilie, he came here, and is
very much pleased with what he has_
seen of the place and climate. We
hope Mr. Corrigan will find* his stay
a pleasant one here, whether it he
long or short.
The hand failed to get enough of
the members together on Tuesday
night for a practice. They should
meet and get in playing trim for the
fifteenth of November. A barbecue
without a brass band is a profitless
thing.
The reunion of the ex-confederates
of Brooks county will occur to-day.
Quite a number will go down from
Thomas, hut many more would
go, were it not for the fact that
the present railroad schedule necessi
tates a stay of two nights.
Joe Dreyer, the expert short-hand
and type-writer, lias been doing some
nice work for Mr. Bondurant, of the
Volunteer Signal Station, in printing
a compilation ot the range of the
thermometer, and other interesting
meteorological statistics, for the last
year.
A select party went out to the river
yesterday, and spent the day in gcu
nine picnic fashion. This about winds
Tip the picnic season of 1889. A great
many tender recollections cling and
cluster about these occasions, and that
of yesterday will ho no exception to
the rule.
The highly colored lithographed
matter of the Clevelaud-Havcrly
minstrels arc adorning the bill boards
and coii8picious windows in tlio city.
The sftinll boy stoppeth and admireth
the donkey as ho lifteth the colored
victim.from the “yeth.” The colored
man loo.ks as it he would light some
time next week.
It is gratifying to state that in mix
ing with people from the country, we
find a very general disposition in all
parts of the county to attend the stock
breeders’ fair and confederate reunion
on the fifteenth of November. The
occasion will no doubt bring mote
people together in Thomasvilie than
has been here for many years.
We call the attention of the ladies
to the advertisemeift of Mrs. C. A.
I’arsons. She has returned to Thom
asvilie and resumed the business of
dress making. Mrs. Parsons is too
well known to need any special
endorsement at our hands. She is a
true artist in the matter of dress
making, and has catered most success
fully, for years, to the most exacting
devotees of fashion, She is located
on Jackson street, third door from
Crawford, where she will he pleased
to have her old friends and many
new ones call. See her advertisement.
Items from the Monticello Tribune :
Miss Mary Belling left last Monday
for Thoraasvillo where she will attend
Voting Female College. She will
he missed by her many friends until
the day of return.
The average small hoy in Georgia
will have to import his cigarettes now,
or smoke grape vines, the Georgia
legislature having passed a law pro-
liibitiug the sale of cigarettes to min
ors.
Tuesday evening, while the young
people were participating in a dance
at the residence of Mr. W. M. Girar
deau, Mr. Moller came in with his
camera, and after groupiug the young
folks, lie took a splendid picture of
them by a flash light. This is the
first time that work of this kind was
ever douc in Monticcllo.
A Macon man makes an interesting
suggestion. It is that wiregrass will
make a good substitute for jute. We
would like to sco the experiment
tried. Who knows but what wire-
grass will yet prove a solution of the
cotton baggingouestion.—Ex.
A Stock Fair.
At a recent meeting of the stock
breeders' association, it was decided
to hold a stock fair at Thomasvitle, on
November 15.'
This is a move in the right direc
tion, and the matter should receive the
hearty support of every citizen of
Thomas county. It is to be hoped
that the present movement will be the
initial step towards the inauguration pf
a scheme whereby annual fairs will be
held in the county. The permanent
establishment of these fairs would im
part a great impetus to stock raising
and to a great extent stop the leak in
our industrial resources, by which
thousands of dollars are annually ex
pended inthe west for the purchase of
horses and mules.
These fairs have been held in other
sections of the state, and they have
not only given the counties in which
they have been established an enviable
notoriety, bringing them into prom
inence, but they have furnished a su
perior entertainment to those who at
tended.
Let every one make up his mind to
spend the 15th of November in
Thomasvilie. Let him carry with him
his family and a well filled basket. If
he has a home-raised horse or mule,
bo sure to have him on hand, that
we may see what Thomasvilie can do
in this respect. There arc some fine'
colts in Boston district, and we re
spectfully urge upon the owner the
importance of exhibiting them in
Thomasvilie on the 15th of November.
Wc can make a big picnic of the
occasion, and the .day can be spent
botli pleasantly and profitably.—F'rom

Home Again,
ONLOWERBROAD
Have just returned from the north.
Glad to get hack, too.’ Thomasvilie
really feels like home, and there’s no
place like that. But the goods! they
are coming; be here next week. A
big slock'! Well, no. Mine is not
the largest. The others have that
size, but it is large cuough, and still
better, all personally selected, choice
goods from the cream of New York
and Baltimore markets. They arc
the latest styles, bought low down,and
will be sold the same. This means
that X want to do a good share the
millinery trade this season. It i%aid
to be impossible to please everybody ;
maybe.so; but there’s nothing like
trying, and If I get the chance the
effort will not be wanting.- Think
over the matter, and decido if it is not
well to give at least a share of your
trade to one who is anxious for it,ami
will do her best to pleoso.
Yours, for trade and low prices,
