of lint and 609.594 bales of llnters
last year, and 15,692.701 bales of

Grand Rapids, Mich., March 2b.—
The first shot of the litigation in the

He saw, or thought he saw, a

So the husband pitched tn and gave

To this end the pretty young wife

Editor Times-Enterprlse:
I want to tell you about an old-
time mother, Mrs. Lovely Weldon,
who was born in Newton County,
Georgia, February 5th, 182 4, and
who celebrated her 90th birthday
j recently, by cooking her own din
ner (Without any help. And her din
ner proved to be just such a feast
as would have p’eased a king.
Three children were with her, to
enjoy the occasion, namely Miss
Lemma Weldon, the eldest daugh
ter, J. O. Weldon, the oldest son
living, and L. S. Weldon. J. O.
Weldon was 69 years old the 9th
day of February, this year.
Eight vacant chairs were placed
around the table, one for the hus-
ban, who passed away 12 years ago,
in his 92nd year. He was a sol
dier in two wars, and was a noble
and useful man in his day and gen
eration. The next vacant chair was
in honor of the oldest son, Prof. H.
Brad. Weldon, who was a noted
educator in Middle and Upper Geor
gia. He was also a gallant oilicer
in the Confederate army, being a
member of the First Georgia Regu
lars. Next, Mr. Richard A. Weldon,
of Thomasville, who Is well and
favorably known. There were also
chairs for Mr. Sam S. Weldon, Miss
Dollio Weldon and Mrs. J. J. Mc-
Cranie, the baby girl, all of whom
reside In Albany, Ga., and also Mrs.
Mary Grant English, who resides in
Nashville. Ga.

The Mayor and city council have

topography.

Atlanta, Mar h 23.—Only old rec
ords at the state library and a few
pioneer citizens remain to tell thf
tale of the lotici.v that the State of
Georgia conducted in Atlanta in
1866. Much delving Into old news
papers and the histories of Georgia
fail to bring to light intimate details
of this queer episode which ha.* been
passingly referred to recently in c
rent journalism.
Capitol records show, however,
that the chances cost $25 and $50,
and that the brick store on the pr<v
ent site of tho Grant building was
the scene of the gamble. The state
received annual reports and a part
of the proceeds, but the purpose of
the lottery was to raise funds for a
widows’ and orphans’ home.
The records or the Georgia legis
lature for the year 1866 show that
an act was passed modifying the laws
ngainst lotteries to permit certain
parties to establish one in Atlanta:
the records of 1876 show that this
act was repealed; records recently
found in musty old papers at the
capitol show’ that annual reports of
the lottery were made to the gov
ernor until the early seventies.
That Is all. Histories dwell long
on resonatructlon days, but none can
be found that refers even most dis
tantly to the lottery. Old citizens
have been approached, but save that
there was such a lottery, these men
can recall nothing of It.
