ROMANTIC MARRIAGE.
Mr. J. W. Bonnell Loses Saw Mill
Duron.
Wednesday night, about half past
eleven o’clock fire was discovered in the
roof of J. W. Bonnell’8 saw mill at Da
ren, about twelve miles from town.
By very hard work Mr. Bonnell man
aged to save his entire stock of lumber.
It was impossible to extinguish the blase
however until it had entirely consumed
■the.mill building, with all the machin
ery it contained.
It is hoped that the boiler of the plant
is uninjured, and if not the total loss
will post up in the neighborhood of
$1000 with no insurance.
My. Bonnell was in the city yesterday
aid announced that he would imme
diately rebuild. Expressions of sym
pathy on his loss were universal.

Capid has been buayof late in Thomas
county but his work has been along rou
tine lines—and no romantic happenings, ,
have occurred to sustain Tbomasville’s
lately acquired reputation as a haven
for rnn-away couples.
1 On Monday evening however a mar-*
riage such as romanticists delight in
took place in Cairo, and there is a
1 Thomasvil e end to the story also. On
t that evening Mr. John W. A. Carter se
cured from Ordinary Jones a license to
t Wed Mis* Katie May Richter, an eigh-
l teen-year-old girl, daughter H Mr.
r Frank Richter of Cairo.' There was de
cided paternal opposition to the union.
Mr. Carter, however, was undaupted by
this, as are all true lovers. He went to
Cairo, claimed liis bride, and they were
united in the* bonds of wedlock by Judge
Joshua Barrow, one of the oldest jus
tices of the peace in the county. *
? They left Cairo immedia eiy after the
3 ceremony and drove through the coun-
1 try to Thomasville. They registe.ed at
'* the Stuart House and remained here
until Tuesday afternoon. They took
0 their departure on the '2:80 p. m. for
d Waycr#s8 where they will in future
*" make their home.
There is an epidemic in Thomasville
at present, but it is of a most desirable
kind. Scores of Thomasville people
are improving their homes in one way
'nr another and it is the role rather than
the exception to hear the Bound of hash-
met and saw and the flap of the pain
ter’s brush
Among the improvers is Mrs. R. R.
Evans who is enlarging her bandscgpe
home cn the park front by the addition
•of three rooms.

Paradise Park is being newly painted

THE SYRUP CROP.
Mr. E. E. Alligood of Meigs was a via*,
tor to the Times-Enterprise office or.
Thursday afternoon. He brought with
him a bottle of the prettiest and (deaf

open pan, holding between 220 and 280
gallons. He is a firm believer in that
method and says that it beats the kettle
and. the evaporator.
The excellent qualityofMr^Alligood’R
syrup would seem to bear out the truth
of his assertion. He was offered itt
cents per gallon for it.
