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. £ . -'' m 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 in the approaching fall elections. 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.
