Thomasville has a strict system of quarantine. The health of TbomasviUo was never better. II yon have a dollar to spend, spend it here. 'Fisbiu' ” on the river has grown more popular since Spencer’s arrest. Tboniasrille has pnPed herself to gether. She’d get there—in the end. The sound of eaw, hammer and trowel is heard in many parts of the city. The cool weather jof the past lew days haa'given the lee business a l».*ck eje- Ail the schools and colleges arc pre paring for the opening of the fall Bring your cotton to Thomaevillo. The highest market price will lie paid lor it in cash. It isn’t safe to try to travel now without a health certiffioa’.e. Procure one before starting off. ThoraosviUo continues to paddle her own canoe. And strong, sturdy arms are handliqg the oars. 1; We understand that Dr. Spratling has secured one of the stores in the Mitchell Hons? in which to open his drag store. Before going oQ be sure and pro core a health certificate, you may not need it, but if ycu do you will need it awful bad. Policeman Bland is confined to his hotne by illuesa, and Mr. H, B. Mar lin in on bis beat Mr. Martin swings a club like a veteran. CLOTHING, Midsummer Clothing, Straw Hats, c:k wear and Underwear will virtually be given away from nev on. Wc must dis pose of all OUR Summer goods. Prices and profit will be YOURS. Cash must be OURS. You no doubt-un derstand, “What’s Saved* is Made,” and wc propose to save you all the profit on our Summer Shoes, Clothing, Straw Hat a , etc. Now is your time to pur ehase “PLUMS” at k This id a good time to lay the foun dations fr a big wiuter’s business. The pro.-pects are good fur a brilliant season at this popular winter resort. We understand from a gentleman who drove over it a day or two siuce, that there is a daugerous hole in the Jones bridge. It should be promptly repaired. Mr. J. Hansel I Merrill, who lias been spending some weeks in Tennes see, returned home yesterday. Mr. Merrill also took in the World’s fair while absent. He looks well alter his outing. Mr. James Prevait left list nijht lor Wasl.iogtoo, where he goes to ac cept the position to which he was ap pointed in the Interior Department. Mr. Prevau’s friends wish him well in his new field. We have it fruxn good authority that a Hagey institute, for the cure of drunkenness and the opium babit by the bi-cbloride of gold treatment, will be established in Thomasyille at an early day. The Southern Express Company is preparing to move into its new tffice on lower Broad street. The building is just about completed and Agent Grantham was putting the interior in shape yesterday. Fbe new and attractive residence of Mr. L. F. Thompson is rapidly ap proachiog completion. It is oue ol the prettiest cottages iu town. Mr, George Porter, the contractor, has done, as he always does, a splendid job. We learn that a negro woman at Boston has entered suit against the S. F. & W. Ry., for $2,000 damages because Mr. T. J. Bottoms refused to allow her to go on one of his excur sions to Brunswick, which was run ex clusively for white people. Deputy United Suites Marshal Hurst returned from Macou yesterday morning where he went to carry a Mr, Maxwell, whom he arxested in Mitchell county a lew days ago. Max-veil is charged with conspiracy. He was placed under bond by the Commissioner. y Mr. J. McC. Tharin, President of the M. Corces Cigar Factory, returned yesterday from a business trip to Sa vannah and other places. Mr. Tharin says that business is at a stand still everywhere, there being almost noth* ing doing even in the large cities, Mr. B. F. Hawkins returned yes terday from Chicago and other places in the West and Fast. After doing the World's lair he returned home via New York, Phi'adelpbia and Baltimore. Frank says all the ad. jectives in Webster's dictionary are not sufficient to describe the fair, is beyond human power to describe. As will be seen by the Council pro ceedings published elsewhere Capt. C. P. Hansell was re elected Chief of the Fue Department and Mr. J. E. Mo- Cants elected Assistant Chief. These gentlemen are both good firemen and will discharge their duties with abili ty and discretion. The action of the Council is a wise one. The Pan-American medical con ference in Washington next month will draw together for some days 3,000 delegates. Dr. McIntosh has been notified by Governor Nortben that he has been appointed a dele gate, hod that he has been assigned t) the section on sanitation. This Very important branch of the great gathering of doctors, * Who is The Joke On? During an interregnum in the bus iness of the County Court yesterday, Judge Alexander aud a number of lawyers *ere killing. time swapping stories in comfortable attitudes. The Judge held a couple of letters in bis hand.' Ilehai taken them onto! the pest office on his way to the lea** pie of Justice. They were from Con gressmen Turner and Russell. ••What’s up, Judge,"? said one of the lawyers, “that you get twe^letters this morning from Georgia Congress men f* With a twinkle of sin eye, un noticed by the questioner, the Judge went on to say that Minister Blount, having resigned his position as min uter to Hawaii, had returned to Washington, and that tbs two repre sentatives from the wiregrass region had determined that this section should have some recognition, and wanted to know if he, Judge Alex ander, would accept the position. This was said in the Judge's impertur bable manner. Congratulations on the offer were tendered and received on the spot. Bat it did not end there. The mws soon spread that Judge Alexander had been ten dered the position mentioned. It wt s the talk of the town. Toe Judge erj >yed the first put of the joke, but he weakened when it became a general topic and told the boys it was only a jssr. The taler* related to matters entirely disconr.c'cd from the Hawaiian mission. The question i.-: who is the joke ol? To the Citizens of Thomasville.

Dr. Watkins has had these nuts growing on bis place near Boston for years, which clearly demonstrates that they cm be grown in Thomas county successfully: These nu’s are a staple commodity and large quanti ties are yearly sold, and it strikes us that it would be a good idea for our people to grow them for .market.— Boston (Ga.)

With a little work the beauty of Paradise Park could.be greatly enhanced. This work should be done before the season opens. :\. 1 - - * . -> v • . . From Thomasville to Atlanta and from Atlanta to Cedar- town. * Cedartown, Ga., Aug. 9,1893. Mr Editor: We made our depor.ure from the beautiful city of 1 homarriBe on Aug. isb . It was a bright and pleasant morning we boarded the cars over the S. t F. & W. to Albany. It requires a good amount of patience to endure this short trip. It defies all competi tion for slow time. However, being the beginning, we reached the artesian city in a refreshed condition. We bad an hour ;o wait but it fled quitkly and soon the Southwestern pulled in and we were on our way to Smithville, where after a brief delay the Mont gomery train coupled on our car and away we went stiff faster. Unfortunately several cry babies were aboard, one I think had the colic and the mother jumped and-jostled in vain, but it continued to ever bawl. For the first time in my life I wished I was deaf. At a little insignificant station I notic ed a telegraph office in a dilapidated railroad car, which had an extra roof. The out look of the country had an uninviting appearance. At 4:30 we arrived in Macon. During, the short delay I relieved my some what fogged feelings by a cup of good hot ccfiec. By the way, I met Nancy Hanks, who w tv'j ist ready to leave for Sivavuah. They tell me she run six mjes in five miuutes. Many thoughts flashed through ray memory while in the handsome depot ot the city of my old home- -Prompt ly on time we boarded the Central and were weeding through the far spread city for the red hills of Middle Georgia. Alongside streched broad fields ol corn and cotton. The road bed was smooth and on we teemed t > glide. The air was cool. At intervals a quick stop was made at the stat.ois, some of which attracted my attention fly the pre'ty flower gardens and parks. 1 cannot tail to mention Forsyth, pretty, neat town of 3.000. Many ford recollections cluster hen, the p'ace of my college d^ys and the place of my marriage. Barnesville seemed to have under gone improvement. Milner was ex ceedingly attractive. Naturally a fine location amidst a verdant, lovely shade of an oak grove and a u »ique little town effectively laid off. The appearance was indeed pleasing. Frae fields of corn and cot*.on blended charmingly. Griffin is quite a pretty city, has the appearance of symmetiy. No one can fail to pass 1 dm dimcnt by eveu a c it-ual glance. N'gli*, sable Godess, came on man tled in dark and shaded drapery. However, 1 was entertained by observ ation of two Atlanta belles who got on the train at Griffin accompanied by beaux. It is a pity that some folks can’t see themselves as others see them. I never did like to see the expression produce contor.ion of features. 1 admire true originality in all things. Some people suppose it is fashionable, well, may be so, but it is very disgusting. We arrived in the Gate city a’l right after an enjoyable day’s irivel. Tne depot was all ablaze with electric illumination. Imemdtately wo wore seated in the electric car bound for North Atlanta. Suddenly stopped by the tcuch of a bell at 450 Couitland avenve, the residence of my sister, Mrs. Eugenia Crutcher. Ike following day was spent in sight seeing through the city. Such a conglomerated mass of houses. What woLderful uudi.ro improvements ! What an age of progress 1 What miraculous inventions of electricity. Peach ree s reet is certainly a marvel of beauty, entirely paved with asphalt adorned by many handsome and pictur esque residences, I noticed especiah ly the magnificent stone ed.fije of Dougherty* also the governor’s mansion grander still is the Equitable building, which has four passenger elevators ruuning at the sarai time. It is eight stories high with a basemeni containing their own electric plant. This building is composed of two hundred business offices. The most imposing of all ia the state capitol. We went through several mammoth emporiums of dry goods, etc. Then we took the tkeltic car for Grant park where we consumed several hours. Natural scenery is enhanced in.pcrfection by lovely flowers, land scapes, attractive driveways and pretty lakes Promiscuously are dotted rural cottages ol modern appliances. The zoological collection is very interesting. Luckily we happeted in time to see the animals fed. A sick consumptive monkey received much attention. A Walking hen was quite a cariosity. A slutted camel looked animate. Must admit wc were highly entertained aod in rather a fagged state, returning at ifle close of day, carrying a stupenduoos amount of sightseeing. Many other jaunty were postponed lor the near future. While the increasing city of At lanta if unde? great progression and headway, yet it ia badly' laid off and deficient in water supply,- Again, we were at the depot amidst the hum, and buzz scrambling through the dense crowd to board the L. & N. A long, elegant train pulled out over a fine, em uth road bed, rock balus- ieredand oteeTrail, made rapid time on a rim bound lor Chattanooga. Only a short while and we were at Marietta, a charming little city of reputation. r*f’fjfi Acworth U a nice place marked by- many buildings which attract the eye, Soon Cartersville was reached, fa mous for beiDg the homo of Bill Arp and Sam Jones.

My father, Mr. Leary, met us prompt ly, and soon we were comfortably Cedartown has 3,000 population, waterworks aud electric lights. It ioa8ts.ofa fine court house with a town clock in the steeple, - and band# some churches, also tf number of bus> iness houses. Delightful cool air and water make Cedartown pleasant, receiving . its name from the endless quantity ol cedars iu conclusion I shall remember yon again from the mountain springs, and with my kiudest wishes for you all In dear old Thomasville, and wishing to share a part of these newly sought pleasures away down in Dixie* Au revoir, F. L E. A Cry for Help. Acfual want is staring in the face four thousand people in Brunswick. They are shut up in a fever infected town. Orders have been issued that no one shall leave the city unless they are going to Atlanta or points beyond. The following appeal has been i.-sued: * The situation here is distressing. W«j are shut off from the entire out side world. Starvation stares the poor people in the face. The refugees, ordinarily bread-winners, with their families, have left the city without rueaus. About 4,000 people are left the city unable to procure supplies. Immediate need—provisions and ney. Time is an important ele ment. We appeal in behalf of a stricken peop’e for immediate aid, aud confidently rely upon the heart great American peop’e and the government to respond. Titos. \V. La mu, Mayor. C. P.

Let us do what we can and do it promptly. Another Tie. S everal hundred people, including many ladies, went out to the ball grounds yesterday afternoon to wit ness the game between Thoraaaville. The Quitman boys came in on the fast mail at 1 o’clock, aud were taken at once t.) the Ruart Hou .-e by the Thoiuasviile team. Hu grate was called about 4 o’cl >ek, and it- a iaost exciting one from bcgiuuing to end, Tho-nasville took iho lead the first iuuing but Q-iitma i soon caught up and pa-sed them. At the end of the eighth inning the score was 12 to 14 in favor of Quitman. In the ninth Quitman made one run, putting Ler three ahead. Thoma3' ville made threo in her half of the ninth, tieiug the score. There was some very good and some very bad plays on both sides. L3dbetter, Quit man’s pitcher, did excellent work throughout the whole game The Eui^ess of the club ia duo mainly to his work. Barbee and McDougald, of the Thomasvi’.le’s, each made a beau tiful catch. Cochran batted the longest fijr ever knocked on those ground-'. The game, while closely contested, was a pleasant one and re markab’y free from kicking on both sides. Of course the small boys, and some of the larger ones as well, guyed the visitors aud shouted for the home team for all they were worth, but everything passed eff without a single harsh wmd. Mr. C. A- Brux, of the Quitman team, came in our office last night a ad requested us to state that the Q ritman boys were well pleased with their treatment here. This makes the second time these two efubs have liod, and we presume they wid play it off sometime in the near future. The South Georgia College. Col. J. Colton Lynea, president ot the above college, who is now 19 At' lanta, writes us that he has secured the services of‘Miss 8.

El ward W. Cook conducting the services. Only the undertaker, minister andass sistants witnessed the funeral. Only one patient, an infant, now sick. No new case in the last forty-eight hours. The following has been seat out by the Board of Health: It is gratifying that the board of health is able to announce to the public that there are no new cases of fever of aoy kind. The case of Har ris terminated fatally at 11 p. m. and the other case, the Cox child, is re ported doing well, and a spirit of con fidence ‘and cheerfulness prevails among our population. The situa tion is encouraging and reassuring to the public at large.. H. Burfobd, President Board of Health. The exodus has stopped. All that can get away, have gone and all reg ular freight and passenger trains have been abandoned. In. event of epidemic camps will be started at Wayneaville, 25 miles from here. Now all attention is given to re’iev- ingthe destitution and wauts that pres vai's to an appalling degreo among the poorer classes of the city. As will be seen by the following letter, Dr. J. G. Hopkics has been appointed a delegate to the Pan- American Medical Congress, which meets in Washington on the 8:h. \Te learn that the doctor will attend, and that Dr. T. S.

The Herald lays: ‘‘The Agent of the Southern Ex press Company, at this point, has been notified by City Clerk Bust that bar* rels and boxes of fish from sea-port towns will positively not be allowed to come into Albany a^ long aa the present yellow fever leave is abroad.” All the tax digests have been sent in except those of Fulton and liberty counties. The late batches show a heavy failing off in values. Brooks county shows a decrease in the value of taxable property of 1123,612. The decrease in Bibb county will be 1585,615, and Fleyd county prop-* erty decreased 8847,389, the greatest decrease yet reported.
