Hon. Guyto McLendon, who has
just returned from the north, says
that the travel south has already
begun in large numbers, and every
indication points to a splendid season.
Bleepers on trains coming south are
being engaged rapidly.
The sprinkling of the streets is all
right, and it should be kept up when
needed, but it should bo done at a
later hour, say eight, or half past
eight at night The work commences
while the streets are still thronged
with pedestrians and teams. This
makes it both disagreeable and unsafe.
It is impossible for the men engaged
in the work to see one coming around
a corner, and the consequence is that
many get a shower bath. Besides
there is danger of frightening teams,
causing them to ran away and en
danger life and limb. Make the
hours later.
The Senate has passed bills incor
porating the towns of Metcalfe and
Meigs, in this county. This makes

towns; and they are good ones, too.
Thomasville is proud of her progeny.

For You.
It would nppear hardly necessary
that we should again remind the citi
zens of Thomasville who inaugurated
the laudable movement for a grand
reunion of the -citizens of Thomas
county, that much is yet to be done
to make that occason a success. Thom-
nsvillo cannot afford a failure. Her
reputation for public spirited hospital-
ty is at stako. She must prove her-
eelf equal to the oecnaiou, and we
know she will. It should be borne
in mind, that in addition to the thou
sands of our own citizens who will be
here, there will also be present large
numbers from surrounding counties.
These people are coming here at our
special invitation, and.they must be
entertained. There should not be a
shortage in anything; everything
should be in profusion, and of the best.
It will not do to invite people here to
a naked feast. The committee on
subscriptions have done well, but
there is much more to be done. These
gentlemen are giving their time and
attention to the enterprise freely, and
they should meet with every possible
encouragement from all classes of our
citizens: for we tSke it that all are
alike interested in the success of tho
occasion and the reputation of Thom-
asville.
Married.
At the residence of the bride’s
father, Mr. George Carter, on Sunday,
the 20th inst., Mr. John H. Barwick
to Miss Florence S. Carter, A. Pal
mcr, J. P., performing the ceremony.
A largo number of relatives and
friends were present. The happy
yonng couple have the best wishes of
a host of friends for their fiitare hap
piness and prosperity.
They will be here to see the circus
next Thursday. No doubt about it

and our line ot
•THE LITTLE SINNER."
Little sinners, when they are petite
and pretty, are always attractive, and
Cora Van Tassel proved so in th's
role last night at the Grand Opera
House.
The scone of “The Little Sinner” is
laid on a farm near Raleigh, N. C.,
and the phase of fann life shown is
pleasant, but more Northorn than
Southern, As Polly Beach, tho
harum-scarum little country girl,
Miss Van Tassel displayed her agility
strikingly, and her dancing was re
markably good.
Mr, Sanbrook, os Col. Beach, the
old farmer, was one of the best actore
in the company, and his role gave
him an opportunity to display his
os Walter Breenan, tbo mysterious
gentleman, was excellent, and Mr.
Holmes, os Job Bingle, the Yankee
schemer, acted his rather difficult
part with much effect.
The play has a good plot, involving
delicate situations, and trying posi
tions, but in the end alf comes out
well. The right persons turn up at
the right time, aud the curtain falls
on a scene where everybody is happy
and smiling.
The above from the News and
Courier, Charleston, is very compli
mentary to the charming little South
ern octrees. Cora Van Tassel ranks
.with Maggie Mitchell and Lotta in
her soubrette roles. A St. Louis
paper, speaking of the popular actress,
says:
“Cora Van Tassel is a dashing and
attractive little soubrette. She jump
cd into popularity. Unlike nine-
tenths of the alleged soubrettes who
are starring around the county, Miss
Van Tassel is young, pretty in face
and graceful in figure. She reminds
one of Maggie Mitchell in her prime.”
Go to the opera house on Monday
night and you will see a good play.
Fine Sport.
Mr. John Beverly, one of Thomas
county’s most prosperous farmers, en
tertained quite a party of Thomasville
lovers of gun and rod, at his home,
six miles from town on the Monticello
road, Wednesday. Some of the party
fished in his private fish pond with
fine luck, while others shot doves>
killing over a hundred in a short
while.
Light
They Are Coming.
Thomasville’s winter visitors, in
cluding those who have bought homes
here, are dropping in. Last evening
Mr. David McCartnoy and family, of
Wisconsin, and Dr. Cobb and family,
of Tennessee, both of whom have
winter homes here, arrived. Both
families will be cordially welcomed to
Thomasville and tho “Sunny South.”
To Meet,
Tne committee of ladies, published
elsewhere, to atd at the barbecue, on
the 15th of November, are requested
to meet the general committee of gen
tlemen at the Library at 10 o’clock a.
m., on Tuesday. Let all who possibly

In publishing the names, yesterday

ant W. E. Hansin occurred. The
