They are relatives of Mrs. Mc Lendon. Miss Dela Edwards, who has been spending some time in the city visit ing her undo, Mr. E. B. Whiddon, left yesterday for her home, Cherry Lake, Fla. The box sheet for Cora Van Tassel was opened yesterday. She has been drawing fine houses everywhere in her new play, the “Little Sinner,” and is highly recommended. 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 five incorporated towns, outside of Thomasville. This is a county of towns; and they are good ones, too. Thomasville is proud of her progeny. CURTEIGHT & DANIEL -AREJSOIiEJAGENTS FOR TAe G@leTora.ted. ISo-oss KEats!

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 SPARE RIBS Winter CLOTHING! 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 can, attend. Both Kind and Thoughtful. Mr. S. R. VanDuzer, of New York, (we are"tempted T?1?tty of Tbomas- ville) lias presented the library with fifty one handsomely bound volumes, including works of fiction, biography, poetry, history, travel and science.
