Referred to Council.
Mr. Editor—Ought there not to
he an ordinance which would prevent
the drivers of express wagons, buggies,
carriages aud other vehicles from
going faster than a walk at the inter
section of cross streets in your town?
To illustrate what I mean: The
most casual observe every day in the
week persons driving vehicles of one
sort or another up aud down Broad
street, and in a sweeping trot turn
into Jackgon street towards the depot
or the market, without the least regard
to the safety of pedestrians who may
be on the streets.
Your little street niggers may be
spry enough to run and get out of the
way. But how is it with ladies, and
men who are not as young and spry
as they were half a century ago?
Senes.
At Half Past Eight.
On account of an interesting social
event, which transpires to-morrow
night, at the Methodist church, and

eight o’clock.

LOWER BROAD
MILLINERY!! MILLINERY 11
We still keep up the racket of sell
ing for lower prices than was ever
known in Thomasville for fine milline
ry. The past month is our best. We
can only explain it by the truths set
forth in this space every week. We
claim to sell the best goods at least
prices and are prepared to back up
the assertion.
Money saved is made. 25c., 50c.,
75c. or $1 on every purchase counts
up immensely in the long run.
Again, I want your trade. I work
for it and ask for it on the basis of
mutual interest. When you need
headwear please don’t forget Lower
Broad. New hats are in, and also a
nice line infants’ caps; just the thing
to keep baby's head warm this winter.
Yours, anxious to please,
Mi’s. Jennie Carroll,
Lower Broad Milliner.
