THE GENEROSITY OK THOMAS.
VIELK MERCHANTS.
The merchants
Thomasville
have prepared to absolutely give
away fourteen hundred and seventy-
five dollars in prizes. These arti
cles, Including an automobile, a
horse and buggy and selection of
first and second prizes for five desig
nated districts ate worth the inter-
e>L of e\ery person in Thomas coun
ty. The offer is an unprecedented
one in tne history of contests of that
kind in Thomasville.
The contest is to he run on busi
ness principles throuuhout. Tnere
will not be tho slightest deviation
from the stated rules and it would
l»e unjust and unfair to request that
any merchant vary from h?s agree
ment, for all have agreed to abide
he 1 strictly by the unanimously adopted
j regulations. They are forced to

iu desire of those who are offering these
| prizes that they be not embarrassed

noted fused.
\Ve hope to see a lively interest
throughout the county. The pri
mary purpose of the content is, of
t-curse ,to bring trade to Thomas
ville. The merchants have shown a
disposition -to pay a healthy prem
ium for that business? and whatever
they get they are entitled to. The

a good many bent lies. That was all.

of the walled city. Well. 1 passed
and went down into the native
settlement, just outside of the wall.
sual, all native shops are on
the sidewalks. The streets are nar
row ami dirty. A good many shops
were closed, and on making inquiry,
found that the stores that were
closed, were owned by people wiio
had left the city when war was de
clared. I was looking for some of
the silver shops, but when I came
up to them, they were closed and
sealed, *o I wm out of hick tor get

at 4.'30, we started for the native
city. On arriving at the gate,
encountered a sentry. I stopped to
examine the rifle and look at the
ammunition. They have old-fash
ioned rifles, made in 1S90, and the
bullets are of lead and large. 1 tried
to get one. but did not succeed.
We then passed into the city. The
streets are unusually wide for a na
tive city. I was surprised at this
fart, fob I have been in a tew native
cities. We saw a good many sol
diers, and passed quite a few bar
racks. As we passed down the
street, we saw a Red Cross flag, and
