Thoughts For the Youth of the United States pf America. “I find also, much comfort io re membering that iny countrymen are just and generous, and in the assur ance that they will -not condemn those who, by sincere devotion to their service, deserve their .forbear ance and approval. Above all 1 know there is a Supreme Being who rules the afiairs oi men and- whose goodness and mercy have always fol lowed the American people; aud I know he will not turn from us now if we humbly and reverently seek his powerful aid.” The-e closing words of the Presi dent’s inaugural bear such child like faith in both God and man—the Fa ther and the hrother—that they should be impressed on the minds of the children of the land. There is a favorite aphorism that we often hear, There’s nothing like success to bring success,"and the sad antithesis is also familiar to many, “give a dog a bad name and every one is ready to give him a kick.”As we turn back the pages, we see that Grover Cleveland receiv ed some terrible kicks, but not being the bad dog, they beat but did not hurt. In the words of the “best Iriend” to him (for there is a p'athos and sentiment linked with the two inaugurals that have placed hint on the highest pinnacle of American earth ly ambition) ‘ They sha’l bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.” Tho Bible and a mother’s influence associated with it make a talisman Btrong enough to stand ofi all evil. And with the as surance of the Divine favor granted to human faith and humility, there is no such word as fail to the American patriot. Our |>opular president has faith in himself to carry out the strength and Heavenly wisdom that be seeks to aid him in his mighty trust as pilot of a staunch ship on a free and open sea to those who see the one great Pharos that points out the wrecking shoals aud reefs. Herein lies the ‘ success that has brought the success’ that makes the Voice of the People a perfect harmo ny as they push out from shore tor another short outing, tr enjoy the calm and piepare for the storm, with the sturdy and brawny muscle and the dauntless heart of Grover Cleveland to control the Ship «*f State, White Horse! White House! both the synibul of victory. One to Life Everlasting, the other the lad der of victory, or the abyss of dis grace, as lame or fate may de cree. The key note of the truly success ful life is like the fugue of the music. It is never lest sight of. Through ha whole piace it coti33 back. The love of God and the duty to God aud man, and the love of brother and the love of country are alwaxs rippling up, even in the strong parts of lift’s great piece which tho g w.d man is composing for the orchestra of eter nity. This is all, and what a simple, nour ishing diet it is. It is rauric to the soul, music to the heart and music to the hands and feet. They who hear its strains renew their strength. They mount up with wings as eagles, they run and are not weary, they walk and are not taint. The love and duty les son begun in infancy makes men tru ly brave and fearless, and with the caution that is the balance wheel of strong character, there is no danger of grounding on sand, or rushing into whirlpools and thus wrecking the no ble vessels that have been given by the loving Father to guid i safely through the earnest and troubled wa ters of lite. Christian faith and brotherly love round the angles of their nature, and when the vrinds of sophistry and flat tery, or the gale of malice and hatred blow upon them, there is the one Voice that is heard above all, “Peace be still” and the sunshine of oarage and fearlessness have turned the winds into a quartette of laughing, rippling breezes, and when they go back to* the “cave of winds,” they hang their heads in shame when the presence of Siren brings their guilt to memory, and they, too, have learned the lesson of Heavenly wisdom, that cannot be bought by man’s gold and silver. Yes, my young friends, both boys and girls, you will learn a good lesson if you take the inaugural of President Grover Cleveland, of 1893, and study its simple words and earnest truths. The writing between the lines you may not see just yet, indeed, some may never have sight to see it. Only those with a purpose, a noble aim in life, can read its secret. To others, the sound of the money bag is the sweetest music. But to those who would be more than “mound build- era” or “Jacastrians,” they know that success is not always seen at the pinna cle ot fame. The strong ladder of life is so mysterious that visual eye lay down the Golden Buie for all. to U8e it well. The feet of the ladder are deeply planted, and the rounds are firm to carry the bowed head and the heavy rod, and near the top the angels sing ExceLior! Excelsior! an* then the golden door of the Beu lah Laud is open wide, and in. the air, the restful air, is the welcome from the Angelic Band. Youth’s Friend. At the Carson. A delightful ‘ progressive hearts” party at the “Carson,” Mr. R. W. Glading’s charming house, on Thurs day evening, was a source of much pleasure to those who attended. The party was given by Mbs Mayme Han cock and Miss Katharine Schofield, two of Milwaukee's most accomplished young ladies, who are spending the winter in Thomasville. Quite a large number were present and they were handsomely entertained by the fair hostesses of the evening. Those pres ent were: Mr. and Mrs. Combe, Long Island City, N. Y ; Mr. and Mrs. B. D Fudge, City; Mrr. Seyle, Roches ter; Mrs. Bosworth, Milwaukee; Miss Fennell, Milwaukee; Miss Bope, Chi cago; Miss Shallcross, Louisville; Mbs Nellie Jennings, City; Mrs. R. W. Glading, City; Miss Schofield and Miss Hancock, Milwaukee; Messrs. Flack, New York; Geo. Crush, Louia- Hvil’t; J. E B. Love, E. M. Mallette,' VV. L Ball, B. F. Townsend, A- W. Stuart, Fred Jennings, Mannie Dreyer, City. The first ladies prize, a silver hat piu, was won by Mi s Fennell, and Mr. Flack won the gentleman’s first prize, a beautiful neck-tie- Choice refreshments were served during the eveniog, and after the game had c-juie to a close, dancing was indulged i» until quite a late hour. The mu- *ic was furnished by a string band. Misees Hancock and Schofield are charming entertainers and made the evening a most pleasant cne for tbeir gursts. Saint Patrick’s Day. Green ribbons and sprigs of sham* rock decorated many coat lapels in honor of S», Patrick, the apostle of Ireland, yesterday. The many miracles, legends, traditions, super stitions and quaint customs associated with the name of Sr. Patrick would fill volumes. It is thought in the world ot folk-lore that if the wind blows hard upon St. Patrick’s eve it betokens death among them that are learned and much fish shall die in the following summer, a point »he United S.aies fish commissioners wou’d do well to make a note of. An egg laid on St. Patrick’s day it is said will bring luck to the possessor if kept,. The exact birthday ot St. Patrick is a matter ot conjecture. A witty Irish clergyman figures it out that it was at midnight when St. Patrick was born, so some wanted to celebrate on the Sih and others on the 9th. Each kept a birthday which gave Patrick two. A compromise was effected by adding the eight and nine together and all now keep the 17th. This is how ihe 17th of Majch is said to have become the birthday ot Ireland’s pa iron saint.—Daily T. E., March 18th. A Good Showing. “Every person doing business io Thomasville whose business requires the taking out of a specific license has paid up in full,” said Mayor Hopkins in conversation with the reporter in the Mitchell house office the other night, “and it is the first time in the history ot the town that all have paid up so promptly.** The mayor went on siy that usually the town has to born row money at interest about this time of the year, but this year, thanks to our city fathers, who instructed the cletk not to issue licenses until the money was paid in, there is not only no necessity lor borrowing money, but some Df the indebtedness has been liquidated. If we remember aright there are over six thousand dollars derived from these specific licenses, which goes a long ways toward paying the expenses of the city government. We must congratulate Mayor Hops kins and the board of aldermen on their able management ot the city’s affairs. Two More Big Factories to Open Up Here Next Week. Thomasville is destined to soon be come one of the largest cigar manu facturing towns in the state. Four large factories have been located, one of which is already at work and turn ing oat goods with a rush, and others are negotiating with the Thomasville Exchange and Banking Company for a location. The A. del Pino Compa ny are using the old city hall ns tern 1 ' porary quarters, and Mr. Govantes, a iarge and wealthy manufacturer of Cuba, has rented and is having the second and third stories of the Finn building, ou Madison street fixed up for occupancy. This he will use as temporary quarters until his factory can be built at La Cubana. On yesterday the Thomasville Ex change and Banking Company rented one tho Bruce stores on lower Broad street, and the upstairs over both the Bruce stores, with the exception of a small room used as an office by Dr. Bruce, and the small brick store on Fletcher street, just in rear of the Bruce stores. These quarters will be occupied by Aizpuruua & Co , of Ha vana, Cuba, manufacturers of the world-famous brand ot cigars, “Ar- mandina.” For the present this com pany will work only about thirty hands, though as soon as more com modious quarters can be obtained the force wifi be largely increas: <1. The company also rented } esterdoy the place known a3 Cook & Dekle’s hall, which is almost adjoining the Brucs buildings. This place will be occupied by Bernardo Fernandez, manufacturer of the “Leon of Castil la” brand ol goods, also of Havana. Ho will also be compelled to limit his force to thirty hands for the present. Both of these new companies will arrive here next week and will com mence work at once. Mr. McIntyre, Mr. Bishop and other members of the Thomasville Exchange and Banking Company arc making things hustle, and it is a pleasure to know that they are meeting with such flattering success. Fashion’s and Fancies. Mr. Editor: What a carnival oi brightness and beauty greeted our eyes at the open ing of tashiouab e millinery at Miss Laura Joues- A glance through her well selected stock shows exquisite taste and the most fastidious cau be pleased.

Straws re gn supreme in colors beautifully blended, that harmonize s> well with the sheen of the irridescent silks that are now os much in vogue. We noticed a lovely black straw and lace combined with hero and there a bunch of lilacs as it were a breath of spring. A beautiful straw of the famous peach bloom color trimmed wiih laces and ribbons of the cow placque shape, was especially attractive. A large white straw with ribbons, laces and feathers would be so becoming to a youog girl. The store was most beautifully decorated with flowers and we heard many exclamation of pleas- and delight. Surely my, “hearts desire,” a new bonnet, can IhiJ well gratified and give delight. A Visitor. The Marching of the Mules.

It is with sincere pleasure that The World sees the inauguration of the tobacco man u facta ring enterprises in Thomasville. The future of the city seems to be now assured aud its prospects grow brighter every day. When each men as the Mitchell's and McIntyre’s take hold it is certain that good results will follow, and the big company just organized by those gentlemeu will do wonders for Thomasville. It is n« boom but the solid march of progress that has been inaugurated. This season more tourists have registered at the hotels than ever before and many sales of real estate show that her winter population is going to grow still larger.. Every citizen ot the county should rejoice at the growth and prospects of Thomasville, for it means that the county will prosper as well as Thom- asville.—Boston World. h*ve the ominous word.‘‘dead’ marked next .to their names on the pay knows not where it ends* The bean* yriji ' ' ~ * iik: A Vision of Loveliness. Miss Lanra Jones’ store on Broad street, Friday and yesterday, was a veritable vision of lovliness These annual spring openings of millinery always attract a large crowd of ladies, and this year was by no means an ex* ception to the general rale. Miss Jones has excelled herself this season in the selection of goods, and throngh< oaf the whole store can be seen evi dences of her superior taste. Dis played with rare taste and skill are all the latest shapes and shades of milli nery, embracing the latest and most fashijnah’ 1 goods included by the name. T :e display of flowers was es pecially attractive, and was a delight to the feminine eye. Those who failed to see the display—and judging ,rom the crowded" condition of the store we think there ate. very few who tifai daughters of Wisdom and Equity did—missed a treat. Accidentally Shot. Mitch Mitchell, a colored driver at Mallard’s stabics, was accidentally shot Saturday miming. Mitchell drove Maj. Stanbury, a northern visitor, out for a day’s shooting, and while pull ing the gun in the wagon preparato^ ry to visiting another field, the horses gave a jump aud the weapon was dis charged, tho whole lo id taking effect Mitchell’s wrist, breaking the bone and ranking a very painlul wound. Maj. Stanbury drove to town as speed ily as possible and the wounded roan was turned over to Dr. T. M. McIn tosh for treatment. Not Guilty. Sam Rigsby, n white man, was given" a preliminary hearing before Judge Bibb yesterday morning ou a warrant charging him with burglarly. He was accused of breaking into the store of Wertz & Son, on Jackson street, and taking therefrom several watches, pistols, etc. The evidence against him was purely circumstan tial and not sufficiently strong to warrant the court in binding him over, and lie was discharged. The “RYrng Aid Society,” an ac count of whose troubles appeared in these columns a few days ago, were in force yesterday at Judge Bibb’s c *urt. The Society is bidly split up, aud both factions want to run the machine. Several warrants had been sworn out against the presi dent, charging him with cheating and indling, etc., but the entire matter was compromised and all went home in a good humor. Mr. Lovd Dickey, of Duncauville, brought in a stuffed beaver felt yes terday which was viewed with con siderable curiosity. It was the first that many had seen. The beaver was caught in a steel near Duncanville several days ago. One was also offered for sale in Cairo recently. Beavers ery rare in this section. Wc Haven’t Seen Her. A well known commercial mao, who is frequently in Thomasville, write as follows: “A few days ago while in McIntosh county my attention was called to the notice of a lost mare, the property of the Rev. John Perry, (co ) pas'or of the Sapclo Bridge Baptist church (south,) who described his lost prop erty as bring: “One llaclcmare which was ace necked, sheep kneed, hog hacked, goose rumpled, cat hammed and natural pacer” Should any reader of your paper come across such an animal answering to the above des cription, please notify the parson.” Will Be Open Until May, Ab will be Been by the advertise ment of Capt. Pratt, manager of the Hotel Masury, that house will be kept open until May first at least, and probably longer if business will justi fy it. Those wishing to stay in Thom asville as late as May, and we have no doubt there are many, will proba- ably find it to their advantage to see manager Pratt. Almost a Fire.

Last Sunday evening abaut half past seven o’clock Mr. Frank Pitt man, son of Mr. J. T. Pittman, who lives on Crawford street, went into the dining room, which place is located in the rear of the house, for his hat, which ho had lett there. While in tlrore he heard some one tip-toeing across tho floor. He hastily went back into his room and secured his revolver, and then went to tho front part of the house and informed his father. I’liey both went, by differ ent routes, to the yard in rear of the house. Before Frank was aware of it he ran right up agaiQ3t his man in the dark. Tho man started to run Frank commanded him to halt, and upon his not doiug so fired his revol ver at him. The man continued to ran and just as he wa3 scaling a fence Frank fired a second time, but the fellow never stopped running. An investigation yesterday morning developed the fact that the burglar was hit at least by one of the shots. He was trailed from the yard through the block and around to Porter’s stables by blood stains. A considerable pool of blood by the side of a seat in front of tho stables shows where he stopped to rest. Of course Mr. Pittman has his suspicions, but there is no evidence as t,o who tli3 fellow is. It was t:o dark for him to bo recognized at the time of the shooting. Concert at the Piney Woods. That was a select, as well as criti cal audience, at the Piney Woods cn Sunday evening, to listen to the regu lar Sunday evening conceit.

Mr. L’m* bnrgre played most exquisitely the Angel’s Serenade aud Love’s Dream by Brago. The gentleman is a fin ished performer, aud lie was given a hearty round of applause at the cons elusion of the pieces. Miss Winter, though a total strain j ger to almost every one present, cap tured the audience before a d- z:n liquid notes had fallen from her lips. She sang, Sing, Smi’o, Slumber, by Gounod, as but few amateurs could. In response to the hearty encore which followed, she sang a Swiss echo song by Eckert. Again the contin ued applause forced the fair singer to respond, ringing a single verse i pian» accompaniment. The young lady has a voice cf rare com pass and sweetness, and it has, evi dently, been thoroughly cultivated It is full, sympathetic, and is e’ear as bell. Now swelling iato a volume of melody, and again sinking to soft- notes, sounding like silvery chimes in the distance, the singer held the audience spell bound front begiuniog to finish. It was triumph of which auy wo- n might be proud. The young lady was overwhelmed with congrat ulations at the close of the con cert. Pithy Paragraphs of Prominent Things and People. .
