Miss Mamie Perkins, o fMouticJlo, is in the city. She is the guest ol Aliases Nettie andFlorine Smith. Notwithstanding the season is on the wane a good many tournts arrive every day from the North and West. Thomasville is already the. largest tobacco manufacturing town in Geor gia. Soon it will rival any ci'y in the Sooth. With good weather Mr. C. H. Williams will soon have a kilo of brick ready for burning. Charlie is a bustler. Thomasville merchants have the prettiest spring goods this ssason we have ever seen, Their buyers are ex perts in the business aud know a good thing whi n they see it.

We undersiand that two or three o! our most enterprising citizens are actively engaged in working up a free school j-ystem for Thomasviiie. It would be of great benefit to the town. In Moultrie. Two days spent at Moultrie this week was a revelation. "What a transfer .nation! From a sleepy little village it bas bloomed Into a bustling busy town. New buildings, many of them handsome structures, are going up, and in every direction is seen evidences of thrift and prosperity. The ' stillness of jhe surrounding forests bas been broken by the shrill shriek of the locomotive, ahd behold the change! Streets are being laid out and graded, long rows of shade trees are being planted, while the court house square, surrounded with busi ness houses, is lighted up with street lamps. .Theglad notes of progress aud prosperity are heard, tbe music of saw and hammer falls on the ear, while tbe painter’s brush is plied on many new houses. The erstwhile vil lage with its few quaint and rude structures fas disappeared and a modern town lias appeared instead. Tbe town is laid out one' mile square and buildings are dotting almost the entire area. A handsome hotel will soon be completed, a convenient dis tance from tbe now depot The latter building is a large and handsome structure. A great amount of naval stores is being shipped over the new road. Mr. Charley Pidccck is doirg everything in his power to accommo date trade and travel over bis road. He has worked wonders for Colquitt county. The county has caught tbe spirit of improvement and new farm bouses are going up. Old Colquitt is corns iug surely. The primeval pine forests are yielding their riches*, riches which have been 1* eked up for ages. In the town Professor Wilson is conducting a splendid school at the academy. Miss Ellen McNeil, a cuh tured young lady, is his assistant. Court met on Monday and adjoi ed late on Tueeday afternoon, number of cages were postpoued ou account of the absenco of lawyers.

It would fiord much amusement dunng the long cull days ahead of us. Mr. Hebard’s residence, in East End, will be, when completed, one of the mo3t attractive in town. We learn that several other rcHdences will be put up on tbe same drive, or street, this summer. •In the council proceedings which appear elsewhere this morning will be found the resolu’ion* adopted by coun cil on Col.

MITCHELL HOUSE BLOCK, —AGEHTS.FOR- Butterick Patterns -ANO DIC JAEGER’S There was a tragedy io the upper portion of the county Monday after noon that came very near resulting fatally for one of the participants. Bed Faircloth, a white man, who lives on Mr. W..A. Dayis* place in the McDonald neighborhood, was in town Monday and as is hiscuBtom, loaded up with mean whiskey before leaving for home. He is very ugly when under the influence ’ of liquor, and the first thing he did upon arriv ing home was to kick his little child out of the house, after which he brutally attacked his wife. The lat* ter escaped from him and fled to the field. He followed and overtook her, knocking her down and stamping her with bis feet. John Glover, the seven teen year old brother of Mrs. Fair clotb, heard his sister’s screams and went to her rescue. Faircloth seized a piece of timber laying near and knocked the youbg man down. The latter jumped up and went to the house, returning in a minute with his gun. As soon as Faircloth saw Glover coming with the gun, he ceased beating his wife, and pulling his knife advanced towards Glover, cursing and saying he would cut his throat. Glover told him to stop. Faircloth contiuucd to advance, when the hoy fired, the entire load taking effect in Faircloth’a legs. This did not stop him. he continued to advance on the boy with his knife, when the latter struck him over the head with the gun, knocking him down, where he laid until picked up and carried to tbe house. A physician was called in, and after examination pronoucccd the wounds serious but not latal. No arrests have been made, and it is not likely that any will be, as entire community sympathizes with the boy. The above facts were learned from Mr. VV. A. Davis, who Married, At the B.aptist church, in Waverly, Ala., Tuesday evening, April 4th, at 7:30 o’clock, Mr, D. Lee Switzer, of Thomasville, Ga., to Miss Lois M. Bruce, Rev. Z. D. Roby, of Opelika, officiating, Tbe attendants were: Miss Mary Thomas, with Mr. Ernest Shealy; Miss Alice Shealy, with Mr. Anhui Greene; Miss Fannie Webb, with Mr, Will Thomas; Miss May Harwell, with Mr. Reese Holston; Mrs. Carrie F. Smith, with'Dr. H. S. Bruce, Jr. Messrs. Otis Greene and Claude Holston acted as ushers. Tbe fcandsoms couple' were the cynosure of many admiring eyes as they entered the church, keeping time to a wedding march rendered by Miss Holston with Requisite t*ste. Misses Shealy and Thomas wore empire gowns of white China silk, Miss Fannie Webb, cream henrietta; Miss May Harwell, white crepe de chime; Miss Maude Holston, cream challis; Mrs. Carrie Smith, jfhite China silk. After the ceremony was concluded, the newly wedded conple, in company with a few inyited guests, repaired to the residence of the bride’s father, Dr. H. S. Bruce, where an elegant supper was served. The bride is one of Alabama’s fairest daughters. Refined, cultivated in mind, and a general favorite, she is beloved by all who know her. Her father and brother are the leading physicians of Waverly, and what Wav erly has lost, Thomasville has gained. Everybody knows Lee Switzer. He is one ct the model young men of the place ar.d a general favorite with the public. His many friends wish him and his fair bride a long life of happi ness and prosperity, were disposed of. Sheriff Sharp went up to his pace Tuesday morn- makes a model officer, while clever Will Newton caught on very quickly to his duties as e'erk of tbe court. Mayor Millsaps, with an able body of aldermen, is pushing the town to the front. Oue thing is needed, a new court house, or »n enlargement of the present structure. The town and county have outgrown the build- A handsome new brick jail has been built and now the law brenkirs of Co’quitt cour.tv will not have to be taken to other counties pending a trial Wo are glad to sea s > nutty Thom as cjunty people wh > have joined their fortunes with the uev town. They are all purchasers. " Thomasville might profitably follow Moultrie’s example in putting out shade trees. Aud we hope she will. Moultrie has ihrCa churches, Meth odist, Baptist and Presbyterian The latter is being completed, and it will he a very handsome structure. The court and btr are under obli gations to Mr. and Mrs. Rus3, of the Russ house, far accommodations dur ing the term of the court. They were kind and attentive to the wants of all. If you go to Moultrie drop in and see Mr. Russ, he will (reat you well. iug, having been sent for by Mrs, Faircloth. He says Mrs. Faircloth bears marks of the moat brutal treat ment. Faircloth, when sober, is said to be a very hard working man, b.ut when drunk—and he is in this condi tion the greater part of the time—is a veritable demon and gnsdy mistreats his defenseless wife and children. Glover, tho boy that did the shooting, is a hard working, industrious youDg man, and well thought of by all who know him. Mrs. Faircloth is said to be a good woman and a dutiful wife, aud entirely undeserving of such in- hutnau treatment. Mr. John L. Wood Dead. Mr. John L. Wood, the well known and wealthy capitalist of Cleveland, Ohio, died at Augusta, Ga., at the Bonair Hotel, ou the 27th of March Mr. Wood was well known iu Thom asville, having spent the last three or four seasons at the Pincy Woods Hotel Mrs. Wood, his wife, died here la^t year. Mr. Wood was on his way to Thomasville, accompanied by his physician, Dr. Weber, when he died. He could not get rooms at tho Piney Woods aud so stopped on the Sand Hills at Augusta until he could be accommodated here. While wait ing there he died. He was one of the wealthiest men iu Ohio, and was a great philanthropist, his gifts to edu cational institutions amounting over a half million dollars. The game of ball on the cahtpus Monday afternoon between the Col lege boys and a team of town boys was a most interesting one. Only eight iDnings were played, at the end of which the score stood eleven to nine in favor of the town boys. Another game between the same nines will probably be played to morrow afternoon. Capt. D. W, Pratt, of tho Masury Hotel, is down at Suwannee Springs, Fla. We learn that he has been em ployed to manage that place the ap proaching summer and has, in fact, already taken charge. Capt Pratt is a good hotel man and will make this well known resort more popular than ever. There are many Thomasville people who visit these springs and these, we know, will he glad that he is in charge. A Bicycle Club. Quite a number of those interested in bicycles met at the store of Mr. T. E. E. Bartlett, on Broad street, last night, and organized the Thomasville Bicycle Club. The following are the officers elected: 'President—H. W. Hopkins. Vice-President—W. D. Barbee. Treasurer—J. G. Hopkins. . Secretary—J. B. Chisholm. Inspector—T. E. E. Bartlett. The following members were rolled : Ralph Jennings, J. S. Hop- kins, J. R. Dekle, Robt. Ewart, J. L t Pringle, G. W. Forbes. There will be another mcetiog of the club at Mr. Bartlett's store next Tuesday night, and all who feel an interest in the club are invited to at tend. Hon. Gazaway Hartndge, of Sav annah, Georgia’s great humorist, lec turer and writer, spent yesterday morning in the city. Mr. Hartridge came in on the early morning train, intending to go on to Albany, where he was to lecture at the Georgia Cbauianqua at eleven o'clock, but while np town, his train left him, so there was nothing ta do bat wait here until.the next train going to Savannah »nd return home. Hartridge Mr. Editor: As I feel assured that you are a zealous friend to the “Charity Hoepi* tal,” I beg your active interest in making my suggestions known to the friends of this noble Institution so that all will co operate iu strengthen ing the weak treasury lor the sum mer’s demand upon it. In the name of ' Consideration' may say, not lor one mement was the thought of a slight to a religious sect suggested. The unfortunate sc- lectnn of Good Friday debarred so many of ihe frieuds of the Hospital from attending the entertainment, that I now ask a general interest in this uoble Institution that will be the crowning feature of a happy and bless ed winter in this health giving city of [>ines. x We all know there is talenl the hotels, boarding houses, private homes and schools that will gladly come forward and do well its pait 1 compensation beyond tl.e *s of helping to do good, uliich is. alter all, the richest reward one can reap. Let the admirable oi«* chestra of the Piney Woe da make out its pait of the programme, then in vite our neighbors from La Cubana to brighten U3 with their sweet tongue, then call upon all who have aided in any performances for sweet charity’s sake to volunteer their part again and by next Saturday evening I feel well satisfied such a big ball of free will offering and love can be rolled together that the gold it will bring will be insignificant in brightness by the side of the happy memory that will be evergreen in the hearts of triends that will soon be parted for many months and perhaps forever. Let this be strictly an entertainment incurriog no expense. Let every dol lar go to the Hospital. I must ask you, Mr. Editor, to fill oat my crude suggestions by your proverbial kindli ness in helping any good work in c sweet little city of the pines. Consideration No. 2. The Guards had quite an interesting meeting at the armory on Monday night'. The boys of course are very much disappointed at not being ad mitted to camps this year, and will take steps to have an encampment of their own. The suggestion was made that the Guardi and several other companies of the 4th regiment go to St. Simons for a week this summer. This seemed to catch the crowd, and Capt Hansell and Lieut. Jerger were appointed a committee -to write to the companies at Quitman, Valdosta, Wayctoss and Brunswick and endeav or to enlist them, to the scheme- St. Simons is a delightful place and the one of the brightest men ir. the state, and we are sorry he could not stsy! boys will enjoy a week’s outing down longer vith os, | theffimmensely, Citizen Endorses Visitor. Thomasville, April 5, *93 To Tiie Times Enterprise : I write a line to emphasize the wise suggestion of Visitor in your issue of to day, in regard to the Jackson street crossing. At least ninety per cent of the students attending the South Geor gia College have to cross the said road either at Fletcher or Jackson street at least twice a day. It is alway s dangerous for young people to be about traius. It would be a great re lief to the parents oi Thomesville if their childreu could get to and from school without crossing the railroad. It seems to me if the track was raised few feet an underground crossing could be made and all danger remov ed. Looking at the ground this would seem an easy undertaking. Visitor writes from the standpoint of the traveling public. I write on be half of the parents and children. I do hope our good city fathers wHl move in this matter at once. Citizen. At The Pmey Woods. Thejast full dress hop of the sea son—iu ail probability-rtook place at the Piney Woods, on Wednesday evening. If the last ,the season closed in a blaze oflight and beauty. These affairs at the Piny Woods daring the season now very rapidly- drawing to a dose have been exceptionally brill iant, but few if any of them surpassed the occasion tefered to. To say that the music was furnished by the or chestra of the hotel is to say |that it was splendid. The large dining room, brilliantly illuminated, was cleared for the occasion, " * Parties participating, ladies and gentlemen, were, upon their arrival, shown to dressing rooms. Mrs. Bow er, Managed Davies, the ‘entire office staff, and down to the bell boys, .were assiduous in their attentions to tbe guests of the eveoing.

Polka—My Favorite Wohanka There £were a number of very handsome gowns worn. The Thom asville girls and their Northen sisters, never looked more charming. The gentlemen were all in full evening dress. When the reporter looked in at a late hour, lithe and willowy forms were gracefully gliding across the polished floor, to the soft strains of a dreamy waltz. Midoighl’s witching hour brought the dance to a close. A few bars of “Home Sveet Home ” sounded the requiem of the dancing season at the Piuey Woods Hotel - Council Proceedings. - Couhcsl Room, April 3,1803.

Here is some poetry on Maxwell’s “Hear the chopping of tfio axe,' Maxwell’s axe, What a world of massacre resulteth from its whacks! Hearit sever, sever, sever, Sever off official heads:' Hear it catting, cutting ever. Hear it resting, resting never, As tbe victim’s blood it sheds. With a dull and sickening thud— Oh, the goilottnabulation of the whacks Of the axe, axe, axe, axe, axe, Of the chopping and the lopping Of the axe!” Refering tollie handsome Easter bonnets worn last Sunday an ex change says: v The subtle link that connects the celebration of Easter day with don ning of a new bonnet is one of those mysterious things that no masculine mind can ever hope to fathom. But as in regard to other attributes of the fair sex, we may admire even where we fail to comprehend. Kansas City, April 5.—Returns from the elections throughout Kan sas indicate a most sweeping victory for the repulicans, and also indicate strongly a change of sentiment against the populists. At Leavenworth, where the repub licans have not had a victory for thirteen years before, they elected their entire ticket by a majority of 1,000.

WATER TARIFF. 6.00 2.00 The two communications published yesterday aud d y before in regard to the Jackson street crossing has stiire.1 up considerable talk about the matter. This crossing is indeed a dangerous place, and becomes more so every day. Something will have to be done before long, and the sooner the better for all concerned. We trust the authorities will move in the matter and before another busy sea son have the place fixejlm some man ner that will protect people that are forced to cross there from danger. Why Wc Should Educate. Some time ago the Educational Index sent a request to college presi dents in every state of the union re questing such an answer as could be written on a small size postal card. Of the large number sent in that oi our townsman, Col J. Colton Lyues, was accepted as the best, and printed. The following is copied from that paper: We should educate in order to have men aud women qualified to see and accept the facta of Science, Poli tics, Society and Religion just as they really arc. To overcome the acrimo ny of party strife; the inate tendency of a free and vivacious people to deal in exaggeration of former and passing events; to rescue the important facts of our own history from oblivion; to sift out facts from traditions; to ar range these facts under the discrimi nating eye of trained observation, and to teach aright the vital lessons that may be drawu from them. J. Colton Lykes. President S. G. M. & A. College. The merchants and business men are kicking loud aud long over the taking off of the trains on the Ala bama Midland running between here and Bainbridge, which left here every evening and arrived early the morning. These trains were used extensively by people living along the line of road to come to town and do a day’s shopping and return home in the evening. They were quite a help to our merchants and now since they have been discontin ued they feel the loss. Family Use, F®r Annum Bath Tubs, private one year or less....
