LM DAI IS MANY CITIES HAVE PARADES \X1) SPEECHES — GOMPKItS OH M) NOT MARK TALK—TWO MILLION MARK REACHED. Washington, Sept. 1.—In observ ance of Labor Day, in the District of Columbia, virtually all the wheels of the Federal Government ceased to revolve today. The exceptions were the Senate, where the debate on the tariff Mil was resumed; and in the State, War and Navy Departments, executive office, where the Mexican situation compelled close wathful- I ness. | All government departments were |closed, however, as far as the thou- i sands of clerks are concerned. r Mrs. C. K. Deariso who lives near here, was slightly shocked by light ning last Saturday afternoon during ihe electrical cloud that passed over this section, when it struck her resi dence. The house was also set on fire, but was put out before any ma terial damage was done. Mr. W. A. Minims is all smiles these days. It’s a boy. Mr. J. J. Prosser has purchased the grocery store of .1. W.

These are all bright pupils, and we trust will make a splendid mark that splendid school Albert, the little son of Mr. and Mrs. H. R. Owens, is very sick at this writing. Their friends hope he will soon be on the road to recovery. The new paved sidewalk In front of the new postofflce building adds mu'h to the appearance of the place.

SMILE, AXI) HEALTH WILL I1E YOURS, Smile—this Is the latest, and, ac cording to one authority, the surest preventive for appendicitis. Loosen your facial muscle® into a broad beaming smile at least six times an hour and you'll never so much as scrape a speaking acquaintance with a high-priced surgeon, says a writer In the New York American. This is the advice of Dr. Carlton Barker, an eminent surgeon of Wash ington, D. C. He asserts that many cases of this intestinal complaint can be traced directly to gloomy habits of thought. “Worry and you’ll get a pain in your side." Is his warning to those who insist on to the going through life with a grouch. “Cheer up" is the word that goes out from his eamp, “and tb) more youi^-le at Valdosta, when Cheney was laugh the healthier you’ll be and the working. SECOND CUE TAKEN IH VALDOSTA COPS BY BEATING THE LOCALS AT EVERY STAGE OF THE GAME-TWO HOMERS IN THE CONTEST. Valosta made it two straight in the Post Season series, by defeating the Hornets easily Saturday after noon. Day was in the box and was apparently in good shape. He, how- er, was hammered for fourteen ifeties and in every Inning, except one. some Valdosta batter got a safe ty, and. coupled with four bases on balls, there was no hope for the lo cals. The Otters out-played, outfleld- ed and out-hit the locals at all stages of the game, holding them safe in pinches and hitting when hits meant runs. VatiLandingnam, tapped the second ball thrown for a homer and seemed to take the pepper out of the boys like a flash. They looked like a different team from the one which won ten straights and copped the second half in a gruelling race. There was not as much spirit and life, as was shown In the first game in Valdosta and many and various have been the comments thereat. With one on in the seventh, Haw-| kins also hit for a homer. The j fieldine of the Valdosta crew was j great, except in one round, when Wagnon scored and with a man on third and second, and none down, pop flies by Davenport and Champlin and an easy infield ball by Barnett ended a great chance to take the lead from the viators. Mitch Davenport pulled a bone at first, falling to take second on a long fly 'when the throw was made to third to catch Murch, and then step ping a couple of feet from first and let Swartz. who held the ball, throw him out from short stop This prob ably Btopped another rally which might have proven profitable. The game all around was a great disappointment to the fans, who con fidently expected the team to play In Its usual stride, which is did not do, by any means.

The lure of file climate seems to have proven stronger than the fear of being murdered. The Mexl an climate, he says is the most wonderful in the world, and cou pled with the romantic people, has a fascination hard to resist. "The great danger to American residents of Mexico Is not for those in large cities so much as ill the ru ral districts,” said Mr. Cook.
