It will be gratifying to the many
friends of Mrs. Randall to learn that
she has bought the Randall house,
formerly the Whiddon house, oppo
site the Piney Woods hotel. The
sa’e was made through the Hopkin’s
Real Estate Agency. It is a valuable
and very desirable piece of property.
Mr*. Randall has made a success of
every house she has managed here,
and there is no doubt about her mak

management.
A SPANISH TOWN.
Mr. D. I. MacIntyre Builds up a
! New Settlement Around
Thomasville.
Mr. 1>. I. MacIntyre, of Savannah,
went to New York this morning.
Mr. MacIntyre has large interests
in Thomasville just now which he is
developing very handsomely; He is
president of a. land and investment
company, chartered with liberal po ws*
era under the laws of Georgia. In
this county have been gathered about
1,000 acres of very valuable land in
and around the city of Thomasville,
and this land has been laid off with
streets and lots regularly marked off.
An electric railway has been built
running all through the property
two miles in every direction.
Mr. MacIntyre has been hard at
work the past three months develop
ing this valuable and vast property.
He has visited Cuba once or twice
and has induced a large colony of
Cuban and three or four large tobacco
industries to come in and build cigar
factories for the purpose of working
up, right here in Georgia, Cuban
tobacco. It has been found that this
industry prospers well under Spanish
auspices, and one or two lirge cigar
factories have been engaged to bring
over their whole p’anta and full com
plement of labor. The duty on to
bacoo iu this country is 35c. a pound.
On cigars this duty is $35 a thousand.
The saving by bringing in the raw
material and making it up with
skilled Spaniards in Georgia can
readily be seen aid understood. Mr.
MacIntyre intends to have about
1,000 tobacco-workers on his Thomas
ville reservation. There will be
several tobjcco factories and other
industries in that thriviog settlement.
Mr. MacIntyre now goes to New
York in the interest of his new work.
—Savannah Press.
Mr. -D. I. MacIntyre, has, within a
few years, developed into one of the
leading business men in the state. He
is cool, clear headed Bud full of
energy. As the head of this new
enterprise, he has shown wonderful
executive ability. Mr. MacIntyre is
backed by the ab’est and most influ
ential men in Thomasville. He, and
his associates, are tire’esi workers,
and they know no such word as fail

Answer to Problems.
Thomasville, Ga , May 2, ’93
Copt. Triplett:
Noting the two j uzz’e problems,
in the Times Enterprise, with
quest for their solution, would sSy
that my first class in arithmetic, both
girls and boys, have the credit of sup
plying the proper statement to each
one, and giving the solution as follows:
Problem 1st. A man sells a horse
for $90, buys him back lor $80. and
then sells him for $100. How much
did he make?
The statement of the problem is
incomplete, but assuming that the
cost of the horse was $90, the gain
was $20.
Problem 2nd. A and B buy
piece of land containing 200 acres,
each paying $200. A agrees to take
his share from the best land at $2J
per acre, and B his from the inferior
at $1J per acre. How much land did
each receive? The statement of this
problem is also incorrect, and mislead
We are simply required to di
vide 2C0 acres of land into two parts
having the ratio of to lj.
Solution. Two and one-fourth

Tuesday p. m. we were invited as a
body to attend the annual rehearsal,
(music) at the Wesleyan Female Col
lege. After enjoying a rare treat, both
song and instrumental music, Dr.
Bass, in words of commendation and
encouragement made us feel renewed
enthusiasm for our cause on d no*
thing delighted us mere than, “Among
our girls there is a noble band that
will take our places.” Would there
was a W. C. T. U- band in every
college. Surely the daughters might

One of the Old School Takes
a Whack at the Land
Problem.
Mu. Editor :
The answer to laud problem is,
according to my figuring, not correct,
because A and B have a claim of $200
each. The agreement, under which
they divide the 200 acres land, reads
distinctly:
That A agrees to take his $200 in
bottom land at $2.25 per acre, and B
agrees to take his $200 in upland at
$1.75 per acre. Nine-sixteenths of
200 acres is of course 112£ acres, and
seven-sixteenths of 200 acres is of
course 87* acres, tha total of 200
acres.
But have A and B under this divis
ion received their $200 back again ?
I say no, because 112$ acres upland at
$1.75 amounts only to 196.87, and
87i acres bottom land at $2.25
amounts only to 196,87; total $393.75.
Therefore A neither B has received
bis $200 back, but is short $3.12$
each. Yours truly,
One of Ohp ScaoOL,
The Valdosta Times pays this com
pliment to a distinguished citizen of
Thomasville:
‘From a personal knowledge of
Hon. Robt. Mitchell we aro free to
say that no man in the state would
make a better, more conscientious,
and able executive. He has been
honored time and again by his im
mediate section, and always to the
satisfaction of his people. Georgia
would do herself honor in selecting
him as her chief executive, and there
is much in the point taken that the
southern portion of the state should
be recognized next time.
We hope to see Bob Mitchell gover
nor.” *
It is safe to say, that from Dade
to Chatham, the gentleman alluded
to is universally popular. And why
should not the wire grass region have
showing? It has been ignored
long lime. “Bob” Mitchell would
make a model governor. Able,
urbane, honest, true to his people
and state, he would leave a record
behind him as chief executive second
to none who have occupied that ex*
alted station.
Everybody is going over to Bain

prettier or more attractive town in
Georgia than Bainbridge. The citi

THE WORLD’S FAIR OPENED.
In opening tbe fair Mr. Cleveland
T am here to join my fellow citizens
in congratulations which befit this oc
casion. Surrounded by the stupen
dous results of American -enterprise
and activity, and in view.of the mag
nificent evidences of American skill
and intelligence, we need not fear that
thesecongratulationswill beexagera-
ted. ~
We stand to-day in the presence of
the oldest nations of the world and
point to the great achievements we
here exhibit, asking no allowance on
the score of y outh.
The enthusiasm with which we con
template our work intensifies the
warmth ot the'greeting we extend to
those who have come from foreign
lands to illustrate with us the growth
and progress of human endeavor in
the direction or higher civilization.
We who believe that popular educas
tion and the stimulation of the best
impulses of our citizens led the way
to a realization o( the proud national
destiny which our past promises, glad-
popularity of tbe punch bowl in the
best (?) society. That many whose
names are on the church roll are
thoughtlessly, to say the least, putting
the bottle to their neighbor** lips goes
without saying. To go down hill on
jug is the easiest thing imaginable
for a young .mao to do and what more
potent to help him mount than tbe
tempting drink presented by woman’s
hand.
Among the ministers who came
to the business meetings and gate
short talks were Revs. Austin, Lowry,
Ainsworth, Culpepper and Warren.
Several names are forgotten, but their
kindly words will linger long and when
weary or discouraged will no doubt
give strength and'vigor to many who
are battling for the honor ot all lands.
l he welcoming address by Dr. War
ren, of the Baptist church, ana the
closing address of the occasion by Dr.
Black, (Methodist) were equal to any
thing, perhaps a little better than
anything of the kind we have ever
had. The latter said he had been accus
tomed to the flutter of white ribbon
tor eleven years and his address show
ed he was familiar with all our aims,
objects and works’. Mrs. Sibley said
to th^-audience after he took his seat,
We don’t know what a grand work
we are doing until the men tell us.”
The church, first Baptist, the largest
in the city was filled. Mrs. W. L.
Wells gave an address and she also
responded to the address of welcome.
We were proud to have one among
us so capable.
Col. Sibley, of Dcmorest, gave an
address’ Thursday night. He is a
clear and torcible speaker and a peer
less advocate ot prohibition and has
several times been in danger of his
life, as we learned from a lady who
knew him in the west, where he took
an active part in the campaign in
which Haddoch was killed.
The Mercer boys and the Wesleyan
g.rls added to the occasion with songs
and recitations. The Demorest gold
badge glittered on the breast of the
young lady who won it at the Natioal
convention in Denver last year, A
Georgia gill and a fine elocutionist
she is. The lidies memorial associ
ation invited us to attend the decora
tion services. It was accepted where'*

Referring to the mention of the

exerted longer than ours in the field
of man's improvements, while in ap
predative return we exhibit the unpar*
ralelled advancements and wonderful
accomplishments of the young nation
and the present triumphs of a vigor

We have built # these splendid
edifices, but we have also built a
magnificent fabric ot government
whose grand proportions are seen
throughout the world.
We have made and here gather to
gether the objects of use and beauty,
the products ot American skill and

men who rule themselves.
It is an exalted mission in which we
and our guests from other lands are
engaged, as we co operate in the in
auguration of our enterprise devoted
to human enlightenment and in the
undertaking we here enter upon, we
exemplify in the nob'est sense, the
brotherhood of nations.
Let us hold fast to the meaning
that underlies this ceremony, and let
us not lose the impressiveness of this

demonstration, in fact difficult of imag

At one and the same instant the
audience burst in a thundering shcu>,
the orchestra pealed forth strains of
hallelujah chorus, the wheels of the

fountains in the lagoon threw their
torrents toward the sky, the flood of
water gashed forth from McMonnies’
fountain and rolled back again into the
basin, the thunder of artillery came
from the vessels in the lake, chimes in
the manufacturers' hall and on the
German building rang out the merry
peal, and overhead the fhgs at the
tops of the poles in front fell apart and
revealed two gilded models of the
ships in which Columbus first sailed
to American shores.
At the same moment, also, flags of
all nations and colors wcie unfurled
within sight of the platform. The
largest was the great “Old Glory, 1

ANOTHER PLANT.
Thomasville is to Have More

Thjmaaville is to have another and
a larger electric light plant within
the next few weeks, and the quality
of the'light will be greatly improved.
Mr. R. C. Balfour, one of our 3ivest
and most progressive young. business
men, purchased a few days ago, a
majority of the stock of the company
now operating here, and a new com
pany was formed, the Thomasville

with the following officers:
R. C. Balfour, president and man-
P*. •' >' - ' / -
Arthur Patten, vice-president.
W. H. Reynolds, secretary.
J. W^Reid, treasurer. •
. The new company at once purchased
an incandescent system of 1000 lights
capacity of the Th’omson-Houston
Company, which will be run in addi
tion to the plant already here. The
old plant will be moved into a new
building as soon as one can be erect
ed.. It is the purpose of the manager,
Mr. Balfour, to put up a large and
commodious brick building just as
soon as possible on some suitable
place in the city where both the old
and new plants will be operated. The
necessary machinery, dynamo, etc,
has already been purchased. The
old plant will be used for street light
ing exclusively, while the new incan
descent system will he put in the
stores, residences, etc. The new com
pany proposes to furnish. Thomasville
as good light and at as low a rate as
is possible. They hope to put many
lights in residences and other places
where lamps’are used now. We trust
they will meet with tbe encourage
ment their enterprising and progres
sive spirit merits.

THAT LAND PROBLEM.
Another Solution Offered—Prof.
Ingalls Comes Back at “One
of the Old School.”
Capt. Triplett:
Concerning the land problem, the
cudgel was taken up in yesterday’»
issue by “One of the Old School.”
Your present correspondent also
claims fellowship with that fraternity,
and my brother and myself both
know by the o’d “Rule of Three,” as
well as by all modern versions, that
in this problem the sum of money each
pays, and' the quanity of land each
leceives, are proportional. Although
the statement is imbiguons, there.is
no mention in it of the land being
worth $2.25 and §175 per acre; but
by agreement of the parties those
figures formed the basis of the division,
and the unknown quantities are the
worth of $200 for A and the worth of
$200 for B in laud, divided as per
agreement, which can mean nothing
else but in the ratio of $2.25 to $1.75.
My brother of the “Old School” says
our answer is incorrect. Will he
please tell us what is correct ?

Mrs. M. A. Rigsby, mother of Mr.

died yesterday at the residence of the
latter in this city. Mrs. Rigsby was
born in Bulloch county on the 23rd
of December, 1891, making her 71
years, five months and 13 days of age.
She has been a member of the Bap*
tist church for forty years and lived
the. life of a devout and consistent
Christian. For the last several
months she has been a great sufferer,
but not for a moment did she forget
or mistrust the Savior. She was
loved and honored by all those that
knew hei for her piety. Her bed was
made easy by the hands of her chil
dren, her eyery wish being granted.
A vigil watch was ever kept over her
to attend to every want.
The fnneral services will take place
at the residence of Mr. J. C. Haire,
on Love street, at 10 o’clock this
morning.- The friends and acquaint

to satisfy a state and county tax fi fa
for the year 1892. Bought by R. W.
Glading for $33.55.
There was quite a lot of other
property advertised, but the sheriff
was enjoined from selling.
Editor Times-Entebpbise:
Please allow me to offer another
solution to the problem No. 2 as
published in your issue of May 2nd.
The example is as follows:
!k“U sells to A and B 200 acres of
land at $2.00 per acre, A and B each
contributing $200 to the purchasing
fund. On examining the land A and
B find part of their purchase^ bottom
land and part upland. A agrees to
take his $200 worth ip bottom land
at $2-25 per acre, and B agrees to
take hi3 $200 worth in upland at $1.75
per acre. How many acres will each
receive?”
I agroe with Pi6t. Ingalls that the
statement of the problem is incorrect
and will attempt to show in what
particular. The answers, 87^ and
112^ acres, will not do, for ,A and B
each were to receive the value of $200,
but 87£ acres at $2.25 is equal to
$196.87^. There cannot be 112$
acres at $1.75 for the reason that if
the average price, $200, be equal to
half the sum of the two prices, $1.75
and $2.25, there must be the fame
number of acres of each kind of land
If we divide $200 by $2.25 we will
get the number of acres A receives,
and if that be subtracted from 200

Now the incorrectness of the prob
lem lies in the statement that B takes
his $200 in land at $1,75 per acre,
incorrect for tbe reason that there
are only 100 acres of the land at
$1.75 per acre and B must take the
balance in $2.25 land.
