~ ‘-The Recorder of Saturday had an
article about Thomasville, in which it
was stated that that place had attain
ed its eminence ns a winter resort by
judicious advertising. The citizens
of that place now propose to get up a
fund and subscribe for five hundred
copies of the Tim E3 -E n ter prise, send
ing them to friends nnd acquaintances
North. This is n goed idea, as it
keeps the name of the town. before
that many people, and if it be the
means of inducing even a few to lo
cate, it will have amply repaid the in
vestment. —Americus Recorder.
We presume thal even the dullest
see the importance of Thomasville in
creasing—or, at least, holding—her
winter business. Theso ends cannot
bo accomplished without judicious ad
vertising nnd work.
Good Men for a Town.
From tao Mayfield Monitor.
■ The only men of worth to a town
or community are those who forget
their own selfish ends long enough,
and who are liberal enough in their
ideas, to encourage every public nnd
private enterprise; to push nil projects
calculated to build up the town and
enhance its importance. The enter*
prise and push of a town or communi
ty is in the foundation of its perma
nent success. A town may as well
prepare for its funeral ns to become
indifferent to the enterprise in its
midst Men who come to a town to
make it their future home, who can
not look far enough before them to
see that money placed judiciously in a
public enterprise will be hundred fold
in the appreciation of their property,
are to be pitied. They are not the
men to put their shoulder to the wheel
ancf Guild up the town. They are of
the class who are ready to take all
they can of some one clse’s building
enterprise, but they are not willing to
do anything themselves.
The above extract may be read
with profit by some of the citizens of
Thomasville. There is a painful lack
of unity among our people. And it
is having its effect. A blind man can
see it—rather he could feel it.
Mr. J. E. B. Love is pushing his
part of the real estate business.
Among his recent sales was a hand
some building lot on Young street
and the boulevard,in Maguolia Place,
to Mr. W. B. Law. Mr. Law will
improve the purchase shortly by erect
ing a residence.
It is whispered that cupid has
found a victim not a hundred miles
from Thomasville. It is said to be a
case of love at first—but we bad
better not go into particulars.
Mr. •€. B. Townsend, of this city,
who arrived from Griffin Saturday,
gives us the particulars of a remark
able and exciting incident which
occurred on the Central railroad Fri
day afternoon. He was a passenger
on the train for Macon, which leaves
Atlanta at 2:15 p. m. Just ns the
train pulled out from Smnrr’s station
about 20 miles above Macon, a horse
attached to a buggy ucar the station
became frightened at the train and
dashed off up the street alongside, the
siding paralel with the main line.
A short distance beyond the switch
the railroad enters a deep cut, and
when the scared animal neared the
switch to the horror of everyone
witnessing the episode, he left the
street and dashed upon the railroad
track just in front of the ponderous
locomotive, nnd took straight off down
the center of the main line. Swerv
ing neither to the right or left, and
with the buggy jumping and iostliDg
behind him over the ties, the runaway
entered the cut, with the heavy pas
senger train thundering along after
him. Engineer Freeuey, at the
throttle, had taken iu the situation
and determined to give him a race
The train quickened its speed, and
the passengers who had "caught on”
to the runaway leaned out of the
windows, or looked ahead lrom the
car platform. Some were scared
while other enjoyed the exciting af
fair. As the train rotiLdcd a curve
a quarter of a mile from the station a
glance back revealed the entire popu
lation of Smarr’s coming down the
road on foot, to ascertain the late of
the horse and buggy, and doubtless
to pick up the pieces.
On through the cut and around the,
curve the race continued, the
horse holding his own remarkably
well, and never once leaving the
center of the track. Ho evidently
realized that he was in a close place,
and fairly flew dowu the road, while
the buggy kept close company and
gave no sign of going to wreck.
Emerging from a cut the runaway
found himself upon a high embank
ment, with the big locomotive not 50
yards in his rear, and the passengers
held their breath as they expected to
see the horse either leave the track
and hurt himself down the embank
ment, or be overtaken by the pursu
ing iron monster. Hi» speed
slackened somewhat as he was getting
tired, and Engineer Freency put on
the nir brakes just in time to avoid a
collision.
The race was resumed, the runawny
never once leaving the railroad track,
until finally he became nearly ex
bausted, and the speed was reduced
to a slow trot. The train slowed
down in sympathy, and the stalwart
fireman of the engine jumped down
from the pilot and took after the
team. On overtaking the buggy he
sprang up from behind and cooly
rode along in the vehicle for a hun
dred yards, while the passengers
cheered themselves hoarse, and tho
ladies waved their handkerchiefs at
the hero fireman. Not finding the
reins in reach, our hero was compelled
to run around, and after a sharp race
he reached the horse’s head, and a
strong jerk of the rein ended tho race
and brought both buggy and horse
to a standstill. The train also
stopped,’ and with a little assistance
the runaway and the redoubtable
buggy were duly gotten down off the
embankment and safely secured to
await tho arrival of tho anxious
owner. The train then resumed its
journey. Conductor Harris and
Engineer Freeuey were duly congrat
ulated by the passengers for tho skill
ful manner in which they had nian-
agedjthe race and.saved the frightened
horse at the same time.
The distance from station to point
where the horse was overtaken was
two miles, and no culvert bridge was
fortunately encountered or the result
might have different for the runaway.
The buggy stood the ordeal magnifi
cently and came out without a scratch.
"That is a home made buggy,"said one
of the passengers, “only oBarnesville
buggy could have stood such a shaking
up and not have gone to pieces!”

Wooldridge e Wonderful Cure Co., Columbur,

Dear Sirs: About three years ago I was
taken with lircr nnd kidney disease, the
doctors treated me with only temporary re
lief, they give me up to die, saying that
there was no medicine known to them that
would do me nny good. From three to five
months at a time 1 was confined to my bed,
notable to get up when down. During try
sickness 1 was taken with Diabetes ns much
ns one gallon of water would pass from me
during the night. I fell off until I was noth
ing but a skeleton. Last march I left
Thomasville, Gn., my home, on my lied, the
doctors saying flint I could not possibly live
to get to Columbus, Gn. When I nrrived in
Columbus, I commenced to take W. W. C.,
I have taken six bottles up to this date, I am
now able to attend to my work. Up to the
time I commenced to take W. W. C., I had
not done a days work lor 2 years. I bare put
in five days work this week. During this
time I have taken no other medicine but
W. IV. C. I was also covered with seres
from the crown of my head to the sole of my
feet, suffered witli a pain directly over my
licart for three years that no medicine would
relieve. After tnking the first two bottles of
W. W. C., the pain was entirely removed
and I have not felt a symptom of it since. I
was treated, during niv sickness, by Drs.
Dcklc, Ramsey nnd Bruce, of Tliomnsville,
Ga., who can testify to my condition. I
cheerfully recommend it to all who suffer
with liver and kidney troubles,; to give W.
W.C.(Wooldridge’s Wonderful Cure) atrial,
ns it lias saved my life.
Yours truly,
d&w8-27-2w J. II. Jackson.
