The Hussars Tourney.
The Timks-Entkui’Iiisk lias already,
sundry and divers times, referred to
the 'Journey of the Hussar*, the after
noon of July 4th, hut it returns to
the subject with fresh interest, and if
it were possible, with greater empha
sis.
The tourney track ims already been
arranged in Paradise Park, uud it will
be an adtniiubie place for the bo)s to
show their horsemanship and skill.
There will be uo charge for spectators,
of course, and the friends of the corps
ought to turn out in full force to see
the boys ride and cut off heads.
The festival, which will be held in
the court house, and which will be
gin in time to supply dinner to the
hungry, will be in charge of well-
known ladies, and will be one of the
pleasantest, and it is hoped, most
profitable pirts of the programme.
After the tourney is over, an elec
tion will be held for sponsor and maids
of honor. The lady receiving the
largest number of votes will be spon
sor, and the three ladies getting the
next largest will be maids. This ar
rangement will give the young gen
tleman an opportunity to work for
their favorite girls.
Notice has already been given that
donations of good things to eat must
be sent on Friday morning. This
notice aflects the ladies and it almost
a work of supererogation to say that
they will he in time.
An Important Paper.
A very important paper appears
in the Timks Entewrisk this morn
ing.
It is the written request of some
thing like ISO prominent citizens,
asking the Democratic voters of the
county to concede one of the represeu
tatives in the lower houae of the Gen
eral Assembly to' Thomasvillb. This
custom has been in vogue for n great
many years, and bns given general
satisfaction. In this ense, Hon. S.
G, McLendon is named as the choice
of tho (gentlemen whose name aro to
tbe address, ruid they introduce him
in no stinted fashion to fhe good graees
of the Democracy of tho county.
In the case of Mr. McLendon this
is unnecessary, for he is known nnd
recognized ns a thorough gentle
man, a democrat of undoubted purity,
and his past services in the General
Assembly have stamped him ns a law
maker of fine ability.
Photographer Hawthorne returned
yesterdoy from a businuts trip to Sa
vannah.
The Hussars are anxious to have
a full attendance this afternoon to
practice for the tournament.
Mr. J. Willis James, of the Califor
nia Southern Ry., was among the
guosts of the Stuart yesterday.
Mr. B. R. Price, wile, two children,
and nurse, of Jacksonville, were
among the guests at the Stuart yester
day.
Messrs Stcyerman & Bro., an
nounce a midsummer harvest of bar}
gains, and invite cosh buyers to come
and gather some of them.
Mr. J. W. Dillon, and family, re
turned yesterday from Brunswick.
He resumes his position at tbe depot
after an absence of several weeks.
Marshal Spair bad the steam fire
engine out yesterday pumping out the
cisterns, which ore being emptied to be
repaired. Several cisterns have al
ready been fixed.
Mr. Joe Love returned yester
day from a several days trip to the
islands around Brunswick. He re
ports large crowds at St.Simor.’s nnd
Cumberland Islands.
The ad of Messrs. Olivit Bros.,
commission merchants, New York,
appears this morning. The Tisies-
Enterprisk has made arrangements
with this reliable house to wiretbo
pear market daily, soon as shipmenls
begin. This has been done for tho
benefit of shippers, and will prove a
great convenience. £

Pear Shipments.
The season for pear shipping will
soon open. With the short crop of
pjars and the almost entire failure of
other fruit crops, it is certain that
prices will bo better than they were
last year.
The Tmns-Entf.ri-kisf. is in re
ceipt of a.private letter from Summers
Morrison it Co., of Chicago, in which
they say.
“We think if the shippers would
try a car load in bulk and lond them
a little green thnt we could pack
them here into barrels or half barrels
and could secure for them mors money
than we possibly could in any other
way. You will probably recollect
that there was a car came through in
that way last year, and it brought
more money than when packed at the
point of shipment. Should they load
in that way better line, the car with
some hay or straw to prevent the
pears coming in contract with the
hard wood, and the car should bo
thoroughly ventilated."
The car referred to is having been
shipped in bulk, was sent by Mr. W,
W. Thompson, of Smithville. When
it reached Chicago, the market was
badly crowded with over ripe Le
Conte stock packed in crates, nnd
fresh pears from Ohio and Illinois,
and yet the fresh Le Conte’s packed
in new and attractive barrels, and
half barrels, went off at good prices.
The Le Conte shows up with other
pears in the markets, being, perhaps
the most attractive in color and shape,
but it is badly handicapped when it
packed in mildewed crates, that ap
pear to be about two thirds full.
We would like some of our shippers
try the plan of sending a car in bulk,
to he packed at the other cud of the
line.
Aud above all, wo would like to see,
them bestow mors care and attention
on their packages
Last season a great deal was said
about shipping the pears too green,
and some very hard things weie said
against men that were shippiug green
fruit.
The only way to get anything like
satisfactory prices is to ship tho fruit-
while it is hard.
Are Anxious to Try Again
The Times Enterprise is in
ceipi of a letter from a member of the
Cairo base bail team, in reply to the
following, which appeared-in these
columns several days ago, as follows:
“Another challenge will probably be
passed between the Cairo and Tnom-
asville teams very soon. The Thom*
asvdlc boys are not yet satisfied or
convinced with their two defeats, and
the young men that represent Cairo
are so confident ot their ability to do
up our teani again, that they offer to
back their judgment, and they will
find plenty of takers."
“One ot the boys,” says:—“we are
anxious to back rut judgment in
auother game with the Thomasrille
team. We offered to do this while
wc were in your city, but could not
find any takers."
The Times-Entf.rprise is not pre
pared to say that it would favor a
game played for money, but if the
Cairo boys are anxious to play for
something more than glory, why not
get a champion county badge or bat
to be played for once a year. We
suppose Thomasvillc would agree to
enter the lists for such a trophy.

Married.
Mr. Jessie J. Stegall and Miss Mol-
lie Townsend were married at Gaines
ville Fla., Thursday 26th. Mr. Ste
gall is a native of Thomas county,
but now holds an important position
at Suwannee Springs. Miss Townsend
was a pupil of Young Female College
in 1888, and has a number of friends
in the city.
Is Improving.
Mr. Charlie Stark accompanied by
his brother Mr. Gus Stark, who was
taken with paralysis at Pablo Bcacb,
Fla., a few days ago, returned home
yesterday. Mr. Stark’s friends will be
glad to know that he is improving.
The Weather.
It 1ms been hot.
Indeed, one might transfer the
time and tense and say it is hot, with
out taking chances of having a vigi
lance committee on him.
Every trouble lias its consolations,
however, aud the one mnde and pro
vided for the present emergency,
comes along with the thought that
other towns have been just a trifle
warmer than Thomasville.
In the northwest the heat was more
intense than in any other section of
the union.
In one place, Peoria, Ills., the mer
cury wont up to 104°. At another
place in went to 102°, and all work
was suspended.
In our city it went up to 99° Satur
day afternoon, which is the highest
point touched in years.
At other points in the state the
heat was greater, and at only one or
two places was it lees.
The philosophy oi the situation is
to keep in os good a humor as possible,
which is a material help in the matter
of keeping cool.
Office Moved.
Messrs C. F. Gray and R. C. Wal
ker, train dispatchers for the S. F, &
W. lty., have moved their headquar
ter from Dupont here temporarily at
least, but probably permanently.
Thomasville located as it is, with the
diflercnt divisions leading out from
this point, it would seem is the
proper place for tho office. As soon
os the melon season is over tho main
office, in charge ot operator Hughson
will be moved in the second story of
the depot, as the quarters now oc
cupied with the ticket and telegraph
office in one room is not quite large
enongh. If the dispatchers
office is perroauentL&jocated here this
will add two orthifee more operators
to the- force already at the depot.
Burglars Visit a Grocery Store
Satutday Might.
Mr. Joshua Carroll, who keeps a
grocery store on lower Rroad street,
was robbed Saturday night by bur
glars, who entered his store some time
during the night, and stole u barrel of
flour, n box of crackers, candy, cigars,
and probably other articles that can
not yet be missed. As the store door
was unlocked with the key on the in
side, his clerk thinks the thief or
thieves may have been secreted on the
inside when he fastened up at a late
houi. The cash drawer was broken
open hut the money had been taken
out. Mr. Carroll has been the victim
of several robberies since he has been
residing in the city,
Registry List.
Under the provisions of the regis
tration law for Thomas county, all
voters must register. Tho Times-Ex-
TEui-RisE is getting out for the county
a printed list of the registered voters
of the county by districts, to be’uscd

Lee and Buttolph.
The card of Messrs Leo & Buttolph
appears this morning. These gentle
men aro at the Evans & Maclean
warehouse, which is one of the best
locations in the city for a grain and
feed business, anil it is not too much
torny that they are clever enough
and good enough businees men to
utilize all of the advantages tjiat come
from location and exceptionally fine
facilities far close figures.
