Quite a number is expected up from Mouticcllo Monday night to take in the minsticU. They will no doubt hnve n pleasant time, Pupils from. Savannah, Atlanta, and other places, have been arriving daily to attend the Connecticut Indus, trial school. This shows that the popularity of this institution is not confined to Thomasvilie. Mr. Steve Welch, of Thomson- Iioustou Electric Light Company, who has been here since the work of putting up the wires commenced, left yesterday for Atuericus. The fire occurred at the jail before Mr. Balfour reached town. It is a rare thing for Bob Baltour to miss a fire. He would rather be first at a fire than to kill thirty ducks any time. On account of the crowd that congregated around the fruit staud on Pringle’s corner, making the street almost impassible, the stand has been moved a short distance lurther down on Jackson, Members of the different fire com panies should not lorget at the next fire that the Council has passed a res olution prohibiting the engines and hose carts*lrom being drawn on the sidewalks.

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 the Boston World. W HI’KCIAI. -NOTICE.
