One of the partiea will tako in Newport Springs, but the others will proceed direct to the bay. They are all in fine spirits and jubi lant over the anticipated pleasures of the trip. Already they imagined they could smell the gravy as tbe fish flut ter in the pan for breakfast, and hear the crouching of. turkey bones and venison ribs at the noonday meal, while the savory odor ot the roastiog oyster lingers through the night and lends additional charms to the mid night visions of the girls they left be hind.- They all go by private com veyance and will bo absent about two weeks. . Ample preparations have been made in the way of supplies and comforts—at least such was the case with the parties whose inventory we chanced to see while being filled by a prominent Broad street merchant yes terday. It consisted of six Japan poles, half a dozen first-dan reels, lines q. s., one gross fish hooks; five pounds of sinker? and a jug of whis key—two Winchester rifles, four double barrel shot guns, a thousand shells loaded to the muzzle for deer and bear and a dozen bottles of whiskey—one roast turkey, three boiled hams, a cau of lard, quarter gross canned goods assorted, a lot of cheese, crackers and bread ami a case of whiskey. They were also pre pared for wind and weather,. Ben sides tents and au abundance ot bed ding, each man had a robber coat and boots and a flask of whiskey. To make sure of provender for the n-Ains while there, a quantity of hay, >rn and a demijohn of whiskey were hipped by rail a few days ago.

Mr. Frank Walker, of Leon coun . one ot the most prominent and prosperous farmers of that grand old county, was in the city yesterday shaking bands with his numerous Thomasville friends among whom be is always a welcome visitor.

She will go to the gang. A white man was con< victed of larceny, and was fined fifty dollars. Mr. J. T. Tompkios and wife, of Nova Scotia, have arrived and will spend the season at their cozy home, Pine Bush Camp," in Magnolia Place. Mr. Tompkins spent last sea son here and was delighted with tbe place and people. His friends are glad to see him among the pines again. Mr. Lee McLendon, one of the prominent traffic officials of the Plant system, with headquarters at Montgomery, is in the city. Mr. Mc Lendon is a brother of Hon. Guyt McLendon, of Thomasville, and is considered by railroad men one of the ablest yonng traffic men in the south. He was formerly with the Savannah, Americns and Montgomery, and, though quite a yonng mao, has worked himself into one of the finest positions in the south—Constitution. Manager Spence, of the Thomas ville Opera House, is keeping bis eyes open with a view of securing the best companies in the conotry for tbe pa trons of this house. He is .now cor responding with a number of first class companies and will doubtless I in booking some of them. Among tbe number we may mention ths Ward e-James combination, com posed of Frederick Wards and Lewis James, both of whom have been here and are too well known .to need any special mention, and Thomas W. Kesae. Mr. Keene has also been here. These people are the very cream of tho dramatic profsnion, and _ if Manager Spence succeeds in . books ing them It. will boa feather in his cap, as they very rarely visit «mkll a town as this' The Canning Factory. We have had a ffntd d«*al to say in these culumus Uurii.g tbe past lew weeks in regard to u e ceiablishmenl canning factory in Thomaaville. Mr. E. A.

Brad Weldon, a fur a confinement of several weeks with that dreadful disease, consumption. Prof. Weldon was the o’dsst child of these aged parents, and is the first link from, the family chain of nine, five brothers aud four siters. Qe was born at Covington, Ga., Newton, Co, 3rd of May, 1841, being fifty-two years and six months old. Prof. Weldon has taught school since his 16th year. He was educated for a lawyer, but being too young to be admitted tothe bar, he taught until the late war came on. He enlist ed in Co. G, 1st Ga. Regulars; being the first volunteer from Newton coun ty. He was promoted to Ordnance Scrg’t. ol the regiment, and for his promptness to duty aod courage in time: of danger was promoted to com mand of brigade ordnance; was com plimented on the field at Olustee for bravery. As the commaod was out of ammunition and standing helpless in the face of the enemy he charged his wagon in view if the enemy and bucsted the boxes and scattered the ammunition along the line in time to save that memorable b title.

A Card of Thanks. Cairo, Ga., Nov. 8th, 1893. Mr. Editor : Will you kindly allow me, through the medium of your paper, to ex press my heartfelt thanks to the good people of Cairo and vicinity for the uniform kindness and sympathy ex tended to us during our late -afflic tion in the sickness and death of our daughter. No people could have been kinder, and we desire, in this way, to express oUr appreciation to one and alL \May the spirit of Him who prompts hearts to deeds and words of sympathy reward them Respectfully, Casper Walker. Married, In this city, on Tuesday evening, Mr, James A. Linton whs married to Miss Addie Stallings, Rev. A. M. Wynn officiating. of the right thigh. There is a mjete** ry 6Urronuding ihe shooting. The negro does not know who shot him ro at least he says he does not. His story told the Doctor is as follow He says he came to Thomasville from Monticello on the noon train last Sat* urday. He staid at a man’s house by the name of Gilliard every night ex cept Wednesday, which he spent at a house near tho Variety Works. Y es- terday morning he walked out by the base ball ground, and was about 500 yards from the road beyond the ground when tbe ball struck him. This was about the time it stopped raining He said he saw no one, and of course did not know whether it was accidental shot or one intended for him. The report of tbe gun seemed to be some distance off. The ball ex tracted from him was £a thirty-eight. Dr.'Taylor fixed himup alright and he took tin next train for home. The negro's story is not given mnch weight by the police. It is rather ihin, We had a pleasant call yesterday a'ternoon from Mr. J. J. Nelson, the new lessee of the Hotel Masury, and Mr. J. R Tierney, who will be. man ager of the house the coming season. These gentlemen oame here from Hendersonville, N. C., where they have been engaged in tbo hotel busi ness fer a number of years, and have made for themselves an enviable re putation as snccessfnl caterers. They have taken charge of the Masury aid are now at work overhauling and putting everything in first class order about the place. The Masury is one of the best houses in the State and with the proper management, such as ire have every reason to believe Messrs. Ne'soo and rierney will give it, can easily be made ono of the most popular and successful^ They are clever gentlemen, aod we trust our people will give them all the. encour agement possible. We are frequently asked what are the prospects for winter visitors this year. They are bright and encour aging. There are probably not as many people here now as were here tbe same lime last year, ^nt it must be remembered that the is backward. There has been no cold weather in the North yet woth speak ing about, and as long as the weather is pleasant at home people are going to stay there. Notwithstanding this fact, however, a few visitors come in every day., The hotel proprietors in form us that they have a large nums ber of rooms engaged for the and are duly receiving enquiries about the place, accommodations, rates, etc. All the- indications point to a highly successful season in Thom asville. mce. Policeman Bland lit on to him and run him the cooler. When the officer searched him he found a pistol concealed in an inside pocket, aud a case was at once made against him tor carrying conceded weapons. Being arraigned before Judge Alex ander on this chargi Tyesterday after* noon. Addison plead guilty and was fined fifty dollars, including costs. He has written home for the money with which to pay his fi >e. but in the meantime, is a guest of Sherifl Doss Mr. Theo. Titus has filed his peti tion with the clerk of the Superior court asking for a new trial for his client, Henry Spencer, who was oons victed at the last term of the Superior court of the murder of Mose Green, his brother in law. and is under sen tence to be hanged 011 December the 22nd. We have not learned upon what grounds Mr. Titus will urge his claims for a new trial. Judge Han- se-l is absent from the city holding ciurt in Biooks county and he could not be seen in regard to the time when he wou'd hear the motion. It is thought that he will give the matter his attention as soon as he leturns home. Perhaps the yonngest member of the house is Hon. S. A. Roddenberry, Jr , of Thomas. Bat he is yonng only in years, for his knowledge of men and measures has equipped him with a fund of general information and experience that makes him a wise and useful legislator. Mr. Rod denberry is a good speaker and never fails to make an excellent impression, He is independent in character, fears lees in the expression of his opinion and very sound in his views. The above appropriate compliment from the Constitution to one of Thom as connty's representatives is both timely and deserved. Mr. T. F. Pruett will leave tins af terooon for Thomasville. Mr. Pruett has'purchased the Economist news** paper plant of Thomaaville and is now running a job printiog office in that city. He says be will begin the publication of an argicuHural paper there about the lat of January. He proposes, however, to make Albany his headquarters.—Albany Herald. We learn that Mr. L. P. Robert?, the new lessee of the Mitchell House, will not give op Wolcott Hall, which he has so successfully conducted dart ing* the past "Several years, but will continue to run it. Wolcott Hall is a delightful place, and under Mr. Robert's management has won a most enviable reputation. . Kentucky's legislature is democrat ic four to one. You can always de pend on Kentuoky. The Savannah News publishes, in part,.an interesting sermon delivered in the First African Baptist church of Savannah, by Rjv. E. K. Love, on Sunday night It was on lynch law and the causes leading to it Speaking of the sermoif the News »js: "The sermon was an effort which would have been appreciated by any cultured audience, and better still, one that would have been approved by any intelligent* congregation in aoy section of tbe country. Dr. Love’s position is thoroughly sound and in a line with the beet sentiment upon tbe subject of lynch law and the crime which provokes it The de'ive- ry of the eermon occupied an hour and a half, but the congregation showed no evidence of wearinem.” Dr. Love is well known in Thom asville, having been pastor of a lead, ing colored church here for many years. We take the following ex. tract* from the dbconree and com mend them tothe thoughtful not. aiderstion of both races; I appear before you tonight to dis- cuss a subject which is of vital im. portance to the American people, and especially to my race. It ii time that the negroes themselves should say something about this matter which is attracting the attention of the civil ized world. It is high time that we should take a position, and let tbe world know what it is. We have held our peace too long already. Every negro pulpit shonid speak ont on this subject. To begin with, I state most positively that I have no sympathy for the ravishers, nor do I wdep at their death. Every guilty man oi them ought to have died. I object to the manner, however, by which they were put to death. In •this I do, as every civilized man should, stand forth for law and order. I would say to my race, especially, that onr only hope and safety lay in our strictest obedience to law and our un qualified support oi the officers of the law. It is only then we rise to the sublimity of citizenship. Let ns not seek to defend our criminals. They do us more injury than they do to others. We will be measured by them, and we cannot reasonably ob ject as long as we defeed them, for then we will become accessories after the fact and thus become partakers of other men’s sins. I regret that most of the lynching done in the south and that most of the victims are negroes. I regret most of all that such awful crimes are charged against us which provoke these lynchings. It is unfortunate that these crimes are laid at onr door, even if the accusers are mistaken. The south is our home and all talk about the negroes leaving tbe south, to any very great extent, is the sheer est folly. Even those who have left the sooth have not bettered their con dition. Since the negro must remain in the south, it is good sense, indeed, it is their highest duty to do all in their power to make the south the glory of all the world. The fact that most »f thtse lynchings are done in tke South aod that mist of the vic tims are negroes, lends, at least, the suspicion that there is foul play, af- fords material for political capital, forms an excuse for ambitions, wicked, designing politicians to keep the fire of dissension and race hatred in an everlasting blaze, and to continne.the waving of the bloody shirt, and thus causing eternal unrest, and the most intense anxiety among our people. The sensible, conservative negroes are disgustiogly tired of this sort of stuff and painfully regret any and every occasion that conserves its per petuation. These things do the South no good, and whatever injures the South injures ns. It is nonsense to suppose that a man’s home can be in jured without injuring him. To in. jure the home of a people, the weak, est and poorest oi them are injured most. The uproar at Ephesus would have euded in a lynching but for the time ly intervention, of the town clerk. The sound argument which he used with them may be still used in this advanced age of Christian civilization to suppress the mad, barbarous, blood thirsty mobs that are disgracing onr country, and especially onr southland, and which are rapidly forcing good people to the conclusion that we are uocivilized, and that it is nnsafe to live among us. As horrible as raping is, lynching is infinitely worse. In the.case of rape's woman is ruined, a family is disgraced, and a community is outraged, but lynching is not only the inhumanly taking of a mao’ejlife, but it disgraces onr civilization and diztroys onr government. The rav ishers can be punished far more effect ually by law and be killed just as dead by an officer pi the law as by 500'masked outlaws. If shooting and hanging are not bad enough, then, let the terrible penalty of Dnilliees be added to onr statute books, that who soever commits rage “shall be burned alive” or any other barbarous or in human death—only Ipt onr law say so. If there is a fear that the courts may he too tlow in bringing the crim- nals to justice, let the law remedy that The eharge that i* laid at out door which provokes these 'lynchings is rape. Rape is a great sin against society and against God. There is a part which the negroes themselves must first play in this mat ter. We most insist upon it that onr people stop committing the crimes for which they are lynched. The horri ble crime of rppe is calculated to ex cite any virtue-loving people to in tense indignation, and the offenders bad jnst as well understand first as last that it will not be tolerated. The brutes who commit this tdrrible crime are not worthy to live among good people, and we should be careful not to let one word of defense of them fall from onr lips They ought to die. It is punishable by death, even in Africa. There is not. a virtnre-lov- ing people on earth that will put up with it. It is our duty to help put it down. We shonid Bpeak ont in the severest condemnation of this awful on. I regret to say that in every case, eo far as I have seen, we have only denounced in nnmeaenred and unguarded terms the lynching of the negroes, without censuring even mild ly the ravishers. This one-sided ac tion on our part has injured rather than helped our cause.” Here ie what Mr. Wilson, of West Virginia, chairman of the ways and ns committee, one of the ablest men in tbe House, says about tie elections on Tuesday: "I am mighty glad it came-now instead of later in the administration. The election in Virginia shows that the populist uprising has not gathered any headway. As soon as democratic measures can be taken to restore pros perity to the country everything will be all right again.” Ex-Congressman Cable, of Illinois, said: "As to the general cause, tbe business depression is the most potent, The public seemed to blame these conditions upon the party in power. I hold that the democcatic party and administration are not responsible tor this. The business conditions grew ont of pernicious legislation enacted by the republican party. It was the democracy’s legacy and not its acts.” General Wade Hampton, one of the ablest and purest men in South Georgia, is being criticised, and by democratic papers at that, for his ef fort to reorganize and hold the demo cratic party intact in Sooth Carolina. They object to organization of demo cratic clubs. S'raDge times when democrats object to the organization of democratic clubs Hampton is on the right line, and we believe the true men of South Carolina will rally around his standard again, as they did in 1876, when he redeemed tbe state from carpet bag rule.
