*, Chicago, Sept. 11,
It is an open question with many
which is the greater show, the city of
y or the Worlds fair. Of the
many attractions offered by each it
must be adenitted that those of the
city are more varied and comprehens
sive. That Chicago is a city of destii
ny is plain.. When we consider the
age of our great eastern cities, from
one to two hundred years, we admit
their achievements, but charging them
with the measure of time reduces the
wonder. Itis almost impossible to coo
ceivethat the city of Chicago of tosday
is practically ot but'so yean growth.
Sixty yean ago Chicago was a swamp;
40 yean ago there were only 63 brick
buildings in thexitj; 22 yean ago it
was destroyed by fire.- In the immense
conflagration 18,003 buildings .were
destroyed at an estimated value of
$190,000,000. That was in the day
of the wooden shanty, and that fire
was its doom. Though in the abstract
a terrible calamity yet it -brought
blessings as fa no* seen in the palace
piles ot magnificent architecture which
have arisen from a holocaust -more
severe than that which an historian
of old tragically described in this terse
sentence, "between a great city and
none, but a single night intervened."
The Ohicago of to-day surpasses
description and comprehension; it
must be seen. The city limits are 2$
miles long and 10 miles wide, but
there are miles of turburban streets
and residences on the North, South
and West which gives the city propeiv
ly a lake frontage of 47 miles. Some
day it will all be included in one
municipality which will place Chicago
in the front rank ct America’s dues.
It is second now only to New York.
Its architecture ts the latest and
finest in the world. We visited the
Masonic temple this morning. It is
probably the highest office building
in the world. Twenty stories high.
The first sixteen stories are u*cd for
office aid meretn»lie purposes; the
o'htr four for the ue of masonic
fratrrnities. Cost $1,000,000. There
are thous nds of other buildings rank- -
g wuh this..
Chicago is immense. Itis a per
fect for.st of tall buildings and a
seething hive of human industry and
progress.

A Happy Marriage.
Tuesday, at high noon, at the
residence ot the bride’* mother, in
this city. Miss Marion Davis was
married to Mr. J W. Peacock, Rev.
A. M. Wynn offiriasing.
The marriage w.v a very quiet one,
nnly a tew of the near ri-1 a'.ires of the
contracting parii s being present.
The parorio which the ceremony
look place was tastefully decorated
with festoons of ivy and roses, which
harmonized beautifully with the inter-
esting picture made by the handsome
young couple as they stood and took
the holy v,.ws Which shall forever
bind them together. The biide was
attired in a jierfect traveling ejetume
of tan and browD, with trimmings
and hat to match, and looked ex
tremely lovely.
is marriage is indeed a happy
one, uniting, as it does, two of the
muet popular and highly esteemed
young people in the city. The bride
is a daughter of the late Capt. E. T.
Davis and Mrs. M. J. Davis, and is
one of Thomasville’s favorite daught
ers. Attractive in both mind and
persoD, possessing a sweet, amiable
disposition, she has. since childhood,
been a general favorite with every
one with whom she became acquaint-
ed. She is greatly admired for her
many sweet, womanly graces. Ur.
Peacock has certainly drawn a prize
in the matrimonial lottery.
The groom is a member of the firm
of Bondurant, Peacock & Co., and one
of the most successful and prominent
young business men in the place. He
is held in the very highest esteem,
both in business and social circles,
and is universally popular.
Ur. and Mrs. Peacock were the
recipients of many handsome and
useful presents. Immediately after
the ceremony tha happy yonDg couple
were driven to the depot, where they
boarded the 1:10 train for Chicago;
A number of friends accompanied
them to the depot and they entered
the Pullman amid a shower of rice
and good wishes. They will visit the
World’s Fair and retnrn home via
New York and Washington.
The Times-Esteetbise desires to
join with the many friends ol the
newly married couple in wishing for
them a long life of nninterrnpted hap
piness aod prosperity.
At Rest.
The funeral of the late B. B.

noon at throe o'clock from the resi

conducted by Rev. A. M. Wynn and
Bey. J. P. Marion, and were exceed

conclusion of the services at the house
the remains were conveyed to Laurel
Hill Cemetery, followed by a large
concourse of mourning relatives and

THE MEDICAL CONGRESS.
Dr. Hopkins Writes of His Trip
to The Nation’s Capital
Washington, D. C , Sept. 7, ’93.
Dear Times-Enterprise:
It is Jnat ten o’clock p m. and I
am with the members of the Medical
Congress, aboard the steamer Columbia
gliding down the Potomac, listening
to soul-stirring music produced by a
celebrated band of thirty-five pieces
and basking in light-beams which
eminate from a pair of beautiful
Washington eyes. A number of
handsome, tastefully dressed ladies
lend their chanus to the occasion;
It is useless to assert that upon this
factor of human happiness my pleas
ure depends. Woman is. the joy of
this life-and the light of the world.
Without her these would be no world;
it wonld be as wanting in completion
aa a ship without a saiL No hap
pier, light-hearted, or gay throng of
belles and beaux -were ever jollier
than this gathering ol theSagesoi
the land. The young seem older, the
old seem younger—we are all the
same age.
Elegant refreshments are continu
ously served. Champaign floods oyer
to in extent which precludes any man'
the desire that' the river should flow
with wine. There seems as much
liquid within as without the capacious
old rbip She can well accommodate
five thousand passengers, however,
there is room n plenty; we are not
two-thirds tall (f) We expect to re*
tarn to Washington by midnight
when this letter will be mailed.
Should yon receive it yon will rest
assured I have not been drowned
from the ioside nor the out nor blind-
ed by thoao doable-barrelled light
beams which turn men’s heads.
This has been a memorable day in
the history of the Medical Congress.
A great deal of good work has been
done which l hope will accrue in
general benefit to all mankind. The
general trend is in that direction
whioh looks toward the education of
the masses to a point of self-protection
from disease and of furnishing as
sis tan to medical men who would
assist them in the same undertaking.
If the public is aware of tho neces
sary acts for warding of a contagion
surety it will aid in the nse ot the
means. There was bnt one dissent
ing voice to the opinion that consump
tion is contagions and he, the brother
from Oregon, was soon converted and
now wadea deepest in the fight Con
sumption is placed in the category
with leprosy, cholera and other con
tagions diseases and national aid is
invoked in the war against its ravages.
Ot course all are liable but none will
contract it if proper precautions arc
observed.
Dr. Hart, editor of a London medi
cal journal, spoke in support of the
code of ethics to-day. He denounced
newspaper advertisers—those who al
low themselves interviewed on medi
cal subjects for the good of the pub-
lic(?), those who permit accounts of
their professional doings to appear in
newspaper, those who knowingly
prescribe for patients nnder treatment
of another, etc , as quacks of the
meaoest sort. While be arid enough
to burn the ears of the absent and
rjse-tint the faces of the guilty ones
before him, be gave a logical reason
for every thing he said and carried
conviction to every heart. He polish
ed anew the grand old rudder of the
medical profession whioh I hope may
grow in brightness to. force its ob
servance upon those of the profession
who are lacking in moral strength and
self-respect Many men need no
guide other than that of being a gens
tie man. Would that all were alike.
There was no discussion upon the
address; it was not in the line of onr
work and not by a member of the
Congress. Adjournment is in order
to-day and I will go to Philadelphia,
thence to New Yoik and start home
over the deep bine sea.
Yonra truly,
J. G. Hopkins.
An Interesting Letter From
Philadelphia.
Philadelphia, Pa., Sept. 9th,
Dear Times Enterprise:
On Friday alter the adjournment oi
the Medical Congress those of us who
saw tit to accept the iDvitatioD were
taken to Baltimore on an excursion
for the prime purpose of inspecting
the John Hopkins University. This
being a home institution, noted as
the seat of learning in this country,
of course is a household word familiar
to ail. It seems needless to enter
into a detailed description ot it. The
foreign members are now on an ex
cursion oi considerable length. They
will be taken to all the lirge cities of
the East,' through Canada, on. to
Chicago and returned to Washington.
AU manner of sightseeing, is/before
them and banquets at every city to be
visited have already been^announced.
The mxt session will be held fe the
city of Mtx-co, either in. 1896 or ’97.
I have been in this city smce_ Friday,
night accepting the princely hospitality
of the Masons, whom all Thomasvill-
ians know but to love, Surely they
are'the salt of the earth:, Yesterday,,
behind a spanking pair of . spirited
hones, elegantly attired, I was taken
through Philadelphia’s beautiful drives
which follow up . tfie course .of the
Wissatuckon. The “sluggish water,”
as its name indicates, flows reluctant
ly down to join the Schqylkill river
which here divides east from west
Philadelphia. The stream’s course v is
a tortuous track through the pictur
esque bills at the bottom of asleep,
beautiful ravine. Hardly deep enough
to be dignified with the term canon,-
but more beautilul and 1 attractive
than any like place in the East.
The drive, weU* paved by the firm,
packing ol finely broken stone, is
about, midway.between the summit of
the bills and the water below, pulled
out as it wens from the side oi the hill.
Numerous drinking fountains of clear,
cold water piped from the hills supply

Worlds Fair Grounds,
Chicago, III., Sept. 8th.
Vent, Vici, is about ail that nine-
tenths of the visitors to the fair exo
say.- They come and they see, but
not one in ten can recall and describe
this endless magnificent panorama
that swiftly and unceasingly presents
new scenes. It surpasses comprehen

immensity, the magnitude, the grand
eur of design, buUdiDgs and displays.
To the student oi nature and art
hurried visit of a few days is almost no
visit. Yet to an ordinary retentive
mind, that takes written notes of the
many-points of interest, tins lair will
be a distinct milepost in life’s jobrney
to mark its most eventful epoch, and
trill prove a well-spring of peculiar
p’easure to memory even after the
hiir has silvered, and vision dimmed.
The most distracting feature is the
surging throng that jars and jostles at
every step. There is little chance
to stop and less to rest. Yon pause
before some item of interest and ere
your tnind becomes absorbed you are
rudely pushed away and hurried on
by the ebb and flow, of a restless hu
man tide. The author who wrote of
the ’Maddening crowds ignoble strife’
must certainly have visited some place
uusdutjp this. To be in the throng
is distressing, but to be out of it and
occupying some point of vantage, is
presented a spectacle that almost
equals the fair and worth a journey of
1,000 miles itseli to see. Just a word
to-intending visitors: Write the .Pcesi-

Mary, the faithful -nurse and ef
ficient cook of Judge and Mrs. P. E.
Love, many years ago, passed the
90th mile poet on her journey oi life
on the 4th of Sept., 1$93. During
the many years that her owner held
the position of jndge of the superior
court (now occupied by Judge Han-
sell) can many of the bar testify to
the luscious viands prepared by her
hands at his hospitable board, and to
day she cooks for herself; trill not al
low her children to do so, for she has
forgotten more than many of the
cooks of the present day will ever
know. She is dear in mind and has
a wonderful memory; 'ia somewhat
lame from rheumatism, but leans on
her stick and walks and works in her
garden. She does not wear
bnt does her patchwork and
the whole drive is shaded-- by trees
great and small of endless variety.
Frequently a ravine passing under the
drive makes into the stream below.
Up these ravines - a short distance

pever been surpassed in the history of.

cal, the dramatical, the educational
and the spectacular. The fame of
this exhibition has reached all sections
oif the country and almost every
visitor to the Worlds fair puts a trip
to the wild west among the most im
portant matters to be attended to

The Midway Ptaisance is disclaimed

the latter would losejts strongest draw

here is of a hovel nature ,for it is all

greatest attraction. A ride upon it is
a necessity. It affords a most mag
