Editor Times-Enterpeee : li. ing promised that if I found another Thomas county cracker out here who. has his cranium with all of its concomitant paraphernalia soaring in a high and noble atmosphere and his candal extremity over lapping that useful appendage ofthe-vehicles of locomotion on our country high* ways, I .would write him up. I pro ceed to do so. About sixteen years ago, John T. Irvine, after sowing his wild oats in his native country, Thom as ,county, Georgia, and it is here useless to mention what kind of soil he sowed them in, came to this place. He married Miss Mamie Hall, origi nally from Tennessee. After becom ing acquainted with his wife I became more than ever impressed with the truth that a good wife not only con tributed to the highest happiness of mau here below but that she is also his greatest helpmate in his financial success. To say that Jojin Irvine has succeeded, is putting it tamely. When being conveyed over his broad and extended acres of richest fields of corn, oats, cotton and grazing pas tures, and casting our vision over the beautiful undulating scene, we could not help exulting over the fact that Georgia had furnished menus in the development of the great lone star stab*.

' ,S A word tolhe wise is suflh h-nt.” ‘•The lVess has seen some beautiful }>;. ciintus of the famous “Jeflerson : ;igars, manufactured at the new cigar actory, La Cubana, in Thomasville, Ga. They are as fine as anything Cuba and are made from the best raw material from that island. The Jef ferson cigars are made by the M. Cor- ccs Cigar Company, sole manufactur ers of the celebrated Jefferson cigars iu the United States.” The fame of the brands of cigars beiug manufactured m Thomasville is spreading. This will be the principal manufacturing point for cigars in Georgia—if not in the South. Work to be Resumed at Once and Pushed to Completion. The early completion ot the Carra- belle, Tallahassee and Georgia Rail road is no longer a matter of specu lation. It is an absolute certainty. Hon. W. A. Simmons, of New York, financial agent and attorney of the company, Messrs. J. H,. David son and W. H. Mitchell, contractors, Mr. A. Orr Symington, General Manager, and Mr. Frank Damon, Chief Engineer, arrived in the city Friday last and on Saturday plans and specifications were submitted to the financial agent and counsel of the company and. contracts wepe signed for the immediate building of the entire line of road to Tallahassee. Nor will it stop hero. Arrange* ments are being made, and will soon be completed, to build on to Thomas- ville, Georgia. All financial embarrassments oi the company have been removed by the sale of 8500,000 of first mortgage bonds in Edinburg, Scotland, and no further difficulties will arise on that score. The company will also erect one of the largest saw mills in the South at Carabelle, with a capacity of oiie hundred thousaod feet of lumber per day, which will be under the manage- meat of Mr. F. E. Town, who is at present operating a large mill on the road, where it crosses the Deblock- oneo river. Wharfs, piers, etc , suf ficient for the rapid handling and shipment of the company's timber will a’so be constructed; ad of these being included iD the contracts signed last Saturday. The new plans of the company change somewhat the route of the road from the survey and right of way cut out by Mr. Cook. The road will pass about two and a hull mihs west of Crawfordvhlc, and runs through some ot the finest limbered lands in the South, while some of the best agricultural lands to be* found anywhere lie sufficieudy near to ad mit of truck tunning, gardening, etc., for market, to be carried on success fully. Orders haye beeo issued lor the construction of a Telegraph line be tween here and Carrabclle, and very short time Tallahassee will be connected by the wires with her little si=ter city on the Gulf. Carrabelle harbor, is the best on the Gulf Coast, excepting Pensacola, and this little city will at once come into note as a commercial port, and will boom as no other Middle Florida town has boomed for years. The Legislature will extend the time for the completion ot tne road and the original land grants made to the company, conditioned upon the completion of the rend, will be or full and effect. Where to Spend the Summer. THE MITCHELL LEAS&D, The summer season is fairly on now, and those who can afford to spend the season at the ressris, making up their minds whereto go. Mr. L. P. Roberts, of Newport, - the Lessee. We have noticed the fact that Mr. Nearly everybody expects to go to P* Roberts, who'has been running the World’s fair before the summer is over, and ot course many, cannot af ford to take in the resorts and the fair also therefore the resorts are not likely to be very much crowded at any. time. But there are many whose health will requirethem to seek a cooler place for a few weeks at .least, and these are al ready trying to decide on the place where the most pleasure and benefit, to health can be secured. The Georgia mountain and seaside resorts will ca'ch the most of the business from. this section this sum mer. Our people visit the resorts nearer home more every year and the chances are that soon the Northern resorts will get very little patronage from South Georgia. The seaside resorts cl Georgia ate being patron ized more every year and the accom* modations at these places are being greatly improved. Many will doubt less visit Tybee, St. Simon and Cum berland islands, and right here let us 'say that the hotel and other accom modations are almost if not quite equal to those at the seaside places further North. The St. Simons hotel is under new management this year and the new proprietor promises to cater especially to the wants of his Georgia patrons. Many improvments are beirg made at Cumberland, while at T)bee, which is probably the most poplar resort of the three, accommo dations can be secured to suit any and aU pocket books. Then there are the springs and mountain resorts of North Georgia. They always catch a good portion of the business from this section. Lilhia Springs, Tallulah Fall?, Summerville, Marietta and nu merous other places will be liberally patronized this year by the wire grass people. Those who prefer to go further north will take iu Lookout Mouotaio, Ashvilie, Henderson, Murphy, Sulphur Spriiigs, Hot Springs, Old Point Com fort, Newport, Atlantic City, the Cat- skills, Saratoga, White mountains, or the lake resorts of the northwest. The railroads will doubtless publish their excursion rates to the summer resorts cf the country in a short while. This will r o doubt help many to de- what place they will visit. A Letter From the Jail. Wil'ie Grey, who is confined in jail nwailing trial for cutting the throat ot Charley Keys something like a year ago, sends us the following letter, with the request to publish. While there is nothing v>f iuterest in it, yet we give it room to gratify the unfor- Walcott Hall for-several seasons, was in town. He left yesterday, bat be fore going he closed a lease for the Mitchell house. The new proprietor of the MitcheU is an accomplished hotel man, one who has long catered to the wants and tastes of; the public at popular resorts. He has, daring his occupancy of Walcott Hall, made a most enviable reputation here as a hotel man. His proprietorship of the New Cliffs, at Newport, fora number of years, has brought him into direct contact with the best and most fash ionable people who go to summer re** sorts. Many, very many, of these come South in winter. Newport monopolizes ~a large amount of the wealth and fashion of the country every season. These people Mr. Roberts will reach. Our citizens will be pleased to know that. aU of his energy and popularity will be exerted and brought to bear in filling the Mitchell. Everyone in Thomasville leels a sort of a proprietary interest in the MitcheU. The old Mitchell was the pride «f the town, around it gathered the hopes and best wishes of all, and not for the house alone, but for its public spirited builder, Mr. Thomas C. Mitchell. It has been the nucleus around which many other hotels have grown up. It has shel tered, f-ccoxmnodated and charmed thousands within its walls. The new is none the less attractive than the old. It is built for comfort and con venience, and under the new regime every guest will find it a “home,” iu this sun-lit land. The Macon,News has the following to say concerning the preachers and Sunday newspapers: * ' '' .. If s funny. Ministers will rail against the Sunday paper, which is made up almost entirely on Saturday, and will read with avidity the report of their sermon as it appears u: the Monday morhing paper, secured by the reporter on Sunday, edited bv the city editor on Sunday, set up by the compositor ou Sunday and read by the proof reader on Sunday. Surely this world is full of strange inconsistencies. The question of good roads cannot be agitated too much or too often. Speaking of the roads in Georgia the Atlanta Journal says : The Romans two thousand years ago had a better appreciation of £ood roads than we have to-day and proved their faith by their works. The tirae^ has come for action in this matter. Our legislatures and county commis sioners ought to take hold ot the ques tion practically and begin the great work of transforming mud highways into smooth and durable roads. What it Will Cost. General Fasscnger Agent Haile, of the old reliable Central, has been out to see the World’s fair. He gives some interesting data to the Savan nah Press, touching the great fair.cost of the trip, etc. Based on a trip, covering ten days at the fair, he es timates the cost as follows: Excursion ticket from Savannah to Chi cago .. % 43 CO Sleeper one night each way at $2 4 u) Foot meals en route each war at 74c 0 00 Room lor ten day* at *1.60 15 00 Breakfast ten (lavs at 60c 5 00 Luneh ten days at (air at 25c.... Dinner ten days in .city at 76c Admission to fair ten days at 60 Transportation to and from fair Admission to side exhibits...... Theatres and other amusement These figures will interest many who contemplate going. They are perfectly reliable. Mr. Haile tested every item of expense, and speaks by the card. For ihe Asylum.

This womnn was adjudged iasane by n jury empauneled for the purpose several Mr. Jack Wright, of Albany, who has been visiting his parents and old friends in this city for several days, returned home yesterday.

Dr. Wal<lbridge and sister,Mrs. El- lerby, of New York, left yesterday for home alter epending the winter here. They are regular winter visitor?. The doctor was the first arrival la9t fall and is about the last to leave this spring. He spends the greater por tion of his time here and we look up on him not as a visitor or tourist but as a full-fledged citizen. The - many friends of Dr. Waldbridge and Mrs. Ederby wish them a pleasant sum mer in the North and a safe return to Thomasville next fall. Here is an extac*. from t nail Press which should be read by bicyclist in Thomasville: The impression prevails in Savan nah that bicyclists race too much and travel too fast in the streets. They roii around the turns at the squares with ligbtuing speed and arc in constant danger of running into vehicles, pedes-, trians and street cars. The wonder is that more accidents do not happen. Bicyclist are becoming more numer ous every day. They should moderate their speed on the streets. Seriou3 casualites are liable to occur.
