Matter Jimmie Williams, the thir
teen jear. old ion ot Mr.Moee Wit

other day. The snake measured six
feet in length and sported eight rattles
and a button.
Mr. L. P. Heberts, the new lessee
of the Mitchell House, is -expected to
arrive In a tew days. We learn that
U ■ his iutention to make. some very
decided improvement* in ami. about
the honse and grounds ,
The “Spider and Ply,” which is the
next attraction at the opera bouse, is
ODV of the liveliest plays oh the road.
Then is not s doll line in it We
hope it will have a big honse, ier it is
just such a play as onr peoplo like.
Onr people ehould lend their rid to
the movement on foot to establish a
canning factory in ThomaaviUe.
Sach an enterprise is one of the town’s
greatest needs and could be made to
pay from the start.
Ho disposition hss yet been made
made of the Jackson street crossing
problem. Something should be done
about the matter before the winter
business opens up. It is a dangerous
place and the wonder is that numbers
of people have not been killed there
already.
We have been requested by Mr.
W. T. Gsntden, clerk oi the Mercer
Baptist Association, to announce that
the Association will meet at Valdosta
2 p. to. on Tuesday before the third
Snnday in October. Efforts are
being made to get reduced rates on
railroads, We presume Thomasville
B iptist church will be represented .

derstnnd, “What’s Saved
Made/’ and we propose to
save you all the profit on our
Summer Shoes, Clothing,

We are glad lo tee ‘that our farm-
era are realizing^he importance of
raving hay aud more end more of it
being marketed every year. We
beard a mat* who is a close observer
of tbings«>f this kind remark yester
day that he bad seen more hay
brought to town this year than ever
before- Saturday the Hretta were
full of hay wagons, and we are in*
formed that all or it found a ready
sale. Why couidi/t some enterpris
ing citizen put ia a hay press and
bale it up? It looks like there would
be money in it.
The Dothan Sitiioga has the fo ; low
ing kind words for Mr. Lee McLen
don, of this city, all of which are
deserved : **Mr. Lee McLendon, the
passenger and freight agent of the
Alabama Midland railroad, spent a
short time in Dothan last Thursday.
He had been out on a trip over the
new railroad to Abbeville. Mr. Me
Lendon is a yonng man and is one of
the cleverest and most agreeable
railroad men that it has ever been
the Sifting^ pleasure to know. The
Alabama Midland was indeed for
in our opinion, in getting
such a man as Mr. McLendon for the
important position he ho'ds. Not
only is he clever, but he is a most' ex
cellent official and gnards the inters
eat of his road from one end of it to
the other with antiring vigilance.”
That Canning Factory.
A private let er just received from
Mr- E. A. Niabet says that be will be
in Thomasville as :J«n as he can
h ave Lis business for the purpose of
going to work in earnest to organize
« 8tock comp4ny for a canning fac
tory. Mr. Niabet fa a practical man,
having had considerable experience
in the canning business, and. is a live,
pushing fellow. -He is willing to'do
the patvasslng, putting in the ma
chinery, superintending the works;
place the goods, and nil that is necea
saiytobe done, provided the coin*
pany should so desire. This is as
fair as could be asked, and is the first
offer of the kind that has been made
to onr people. He is willing to risk
both bis time and money in the en<
terprise, but will not shoulder the
whole undertaking, lithe people oi
Thomasville and Thomas county want
a factory they mult take some of the
stock, and now seems to be a favor
able time for them to succeed. We
have before stated some of the bene-'
fits that would result from a canning
factory and we think h is unnecessary
to again enumerate them. E-*ery
one knows that such an enterprise
would be of very great benefit, not
only in saving that which goes to
waste now, bnt in stimulating produc
tion, adding new sources of revenue
aud keeping at home money that is
now sent abroad. Mr. Nisbet.says
that it wuu'd n quire at least 150
acres in tomatoes aloiie to furnish
enough tomatoes for the cannery.
He estimates the proceeds * from
an acre in tomatoes aM the way from
$75 to $150.' Put it at the lowest
figure aud this one crop, that can
hardly be said to be grown here now,
wmild bring into the county at a doll
season the snug sum 7 of $11,250.
And this is bnt one article of a great
many that would be produced if
there was a demand As we have
before sta‘ed every individual and
every line «*f buriueps would be bene
fited by a earn ing factory ip our
nrdat, and we sincerely hope that Mr.
Niabet will receive the enoourage-
iU notary to *u.rt one iu time
f«*r next year’s products. Let no one
throw any c »Jd water b it each one do
something to aid the enterprise;

The Thomasville conexpsndenl of
the News pays tire tnbu'e to one of
oor most progressive young business
men and the manufic untg lpdus ries
of the town.
Mr. W. H. Mitchell, the iodtfim-
gable, has returned from *jrip North
and West. Mr. Mitchell represents
the cigar industry of Thomasville god
in the past few months be has placed
orders for a hail million cigars. Mr.
Mitchell beiieves in manufacturing
and be says he sees no reason why
many different kinds of goods may
not be profitably produced in Thom"-
asville. He is au active member oi
the Thomasville' Exchange and tiaok-
ing Company, a corporation which is
the apecial patron oi manulacturers
in thus dry. This company expects
soon to extend its operations greatly.
It began business under the most
adverse financial conditions, but .it
has sturdily weathered the tterm 'and
wi t soon be sailing along under flying
colors all the stronger and more ef
fectively for. its trying experiences.
Some of onr leading business men
were preparing a petition which will
be circulated to day for signatures
requesting the Alabama Midland
railroad to tan a passenger coach
freight train No. 82, which arrives
here at right o’clock every morning.
Not long ago they petitioned the
authorities for the iratorhtion of the
train which formerly ran between
Thomasville and Montgomery, arriv
ing here in the eveniog and returning
in the morning. This they
fused on the ground that the bnsi-
ness of the road would not warrant
it. Now, however, since they have
menced running 32 so that it gets
in-here in the early morning,^ onr
people think that they might pat on
A passenger coach.. Thomasville got

Midland authorities will consider the

We regret very much to chronicle
the death of Mr. Albert Holler,
which occurred on Monday night at
his home iu thia city. Mr. Moller
had been sick but aaboit while, and
although bis disease was a must d»n-
geroue, one bis family and friends
hoped until almost the lust breath
that bis strong constitution would
pul! bim through. lie was at corns
psratively young man and was held in
the highest esteem by every one who
knew him None knew him but to
like him. He leaves a devoted young
wife and cue smalt child to mourn his
death. The ey mpaiby of the who'e
community goes out to them in this
their sad hour of sflhclum May the
Great Hear bind up the broken hearts
of the young widow and orphan.
As will be seen by notice elsewhere
the funeral will be held at St. Thornes
church at four o’clock this afternoon.

“Alabama."
It is to be regretted that the rain
on Monday night prevented a larger
attendance at the open honse, for the
play and performance was most
oellent. “Alabama,” a story of the
8ooth in four acts, was produced by a
splendid company under tho-^tnan-
agement of Cement Brinbridgo and
John W. Hamilton. The scene is
laid at Talladega, A)*., and the play,
while probably • little overdrawn, is
intended to represent the people and
customs of the South just after reoon.

and holds the deee attention of au

Southern people almost exclusively

Frank C. Bangs, as*Colonel Preston,
an old planter, is the strongest man
in the combination. His representa
tion of the.hospitable southerner of
the years gone by was perfect, and he
was frequently given hearty applause.
Mr. Hicks, as a country justice of the
peace, Mr. Briobridge, a northern
railroad man, Mr. Calhoun, a 'south
ern colonel, and Mr. Dean, the lover,
were all good. The ladies oi the
company, Misses Barron, Ingersoll,
Irving and McGill sustained their
parts well, as did also Edward Maas,
the negro servant. The audience
was immensely pleased with the play
and should it eome this way again we
know it «ill be given w better honse.

Protecting Gamesmd Fish
Mr. A. C. Brown, who, togethci
with other gentlemen, called the con
vention which meets in Atlanta on
Oct 17 th for the purpose of urging
better laws to protect game, upon
being aaked if the convention would
have much business before it, saidj
•Yea, indeed. Very msny tliiogs
looking to the Interest of - sportsmen,
We want to organise kennel c’nba,
field trails for bird dogs, foxhounds
and beagles, and above ell we (Imre
to organize sab-societies in each coun
ty that will endeavor to beget a sen
timent which will see that the game
laws are enforced.
Please say that the railroads have
given ns one and one third fares to
and from Atlanta to members of the
convention and this will reduce the
tare one third.
■Every olle .interested in field
sports is invited to attend and must
get a certificate from the agent where
they buy their tickets so I can. sign
the certificate and entitle them to boy
return tickets at one third rate. We
are going to baye a big ’convention.”
We hope Thomas county and South
Georgia will be represented in that
convention. In- addition to the pro
lection ot game in the woods, there
should be some protection to fish at
certain season ot the year.' The
ing in the Ochlockooee might'bo
made muoh better, it the- fish were
protected at certain seasons. 'Every
man, whether in towfa or country,
who fishes or hunts, would tpproge
any law for the better protection of
game or fish.
He Will Get There.
Kope Elias, the brainy and brilliant
young ex-Senator of North Carolina,
the' man who stood out for Cleveland
first^Iast and all the time; the man
who thrilled the national convention
at Chicago in seconding the nomina
tion ot Mr. Stevenson for vice presi
dent, is being tonght by a clique in
North Carolina. Mr. Elias has been
appointed by the president to an im
portant and lucrative office and bis
confirmation or rejection by the Sen
ate is attracting a good deal of atten
tion just now.
The Washington correspondent of
the Journal thus refers to the matter:
Eope E'ias, Mr. Ransom’s candi
date for collector of internal revenue,
was before the Senate finance com
mittee to-davto answer the charges
made against him by Mr. Vance,'
who is fighting his confirmation. The
committee bas as yet made no report.
Mr; Elias dame fully prepared to
meet tbe charge* and, it is said he
completely disproved them. Settle,
the republican congressman, who is
ridijig Vance in his fight on Etias,
claims so have secured enough repub
lican votes to prevent bis confirmation.
This is denied by Ransbut's friends.
They say there is no doubt about
Elias’ success, and tl^at it means the

Editor Banner: As many friends
are making inquiry about the effect
of bi-sulphide of carbon in preserving
corn against weevils, I take thip
method ot giving to all yonr - readers
my experience.
List winter, after I had boosed my

A Big Improvement.
Mrs W. 8. Keefer, mutagen of tbe
Thomasville Ice Works, is one of tbe
most enterprising citizens, in our
growing little, city. The reporter
paid a visit to his new factory yester
day afternoeg and was 'simply as
tounded at the work that haw been
done there within the past few weekr.
The. new place is much more con
veniently situated to the city and a
spur track having been ran there is
just ss near to the railroad. The
building,- a large roomy brick onr,
has been completed and some of the
machinery placed therein temporarily.
There is a large yard enclosed sur
rounding the building and in this has
been piled thousands of cords of wood,
which will bo sawed and split up for
the winter trade. A large force oi
workmen was at work yesterday put
ting the grounds and streets in
thoroughly good order. It is Mr.
Reefer’s. -intention to put in a much
larger plant than he now has, in fact
he has bought one with almost doable
the capacity, and he will male suffi
cient ice tp supply a’l of Southwest
Geoigia. Mr. Keefor is a hustler,
and while he has laid out a very large
sum. of money in -his new improve
ments. no one who knows him will
doubt for a minute but that he will
moke a success of the undertaking.
He wilL enlarge the business greatly
during the Aiming winter, of which
we will have more to say later.

Senator Butler, of South Carolina,
who opposes tbe unconditional repeal
of the Sherman law, does not believe
thafMr. Cleveland is interfering with
the legislative department. In the
course of a speech in the Senate yes
terday he said:
It bad been as^ed, “What was to
be done?” His reply was, “Com
promiser-compromise is the solution.”
It had been said that the president
of the United States was interfering
with legislation, and that whenever a
compromise was spoken of tbe state
ment was made that the president
would not accept a compromise.
“Whoever states- that,” said Mr.
Butler, emphatically, “does that high'
official a great Jo justice, because it is.
none of jiis business what the senate
docs. I do not believe that he h^s
attempted to use his high office to
influence the senate improperly.”
