Milton of Boe- of Metcalfe The air was thick with political rumors yesterday aud the after math of the Democratic mass meeting of Wednesday wns the general topic of ci nversation. The concensus of opinion was that the meeting acted wisely in selecting a late date for the county prima ry, and that their action meaut&t least two now entries in-the race for the legielature. The most interesting political development of the day was the circulation of a petition urging Col S. G. McLendon to make the race . for the legislature. The signen to the petition were nu merous, and in fact almost every one who was approached hastened to put down his name. The peti tion is also being circulated in the county. Should Col. McLendon consent to ran and be elected Thomas comity would bo represented by one of her most brilliant citizens and one who would take front rank in the House of Representatives His friends predict that he will run and will be elected by a large nfajority. A NEW PROPOSITION Bu.y An Eleetrle Light Plant Without laaulng Bonds Says Citizen. Mr. Editor—The ownership of an eleotrio light plant by the city, is a question whioh we think will be decided either favorably or ad versely this year. Th8 beuefits of mnnioipal ownership sre many, and every reason seems to - favor the same, provided'in the acquire ment of a plant no increoso ot taxes is necessary, and the plant purchased is up to date and of sufficient oapacity for 25 years to come. Yonr correspondent believes no two-thirds vote cau be seoured favorable to an issue of bonds to bny a plant: because of the extra tax neoessary. If the oity can buy a plant, making a cash payment on same and pay the remainder in annual sums of $4000 now, paid for lights, Thomasville will, in ten or fifteen years, pay for a plant without any cost over what we now pay for street lights. We think any Eleotrio Supply Co., or the Thomasville Electric Co. would sell a plant on these terms: thie, we think, is the solu tion of oar light problem. M. Four-In-Hand- Thomasville is noted for tho fine carriages, smart traps and •ther samples of vehicledom be longing to the winter residoutslAn unusual number of these were on the streets yesterday afternoon, and the one that attracted con eiderablo attention was a four-in- hand of mettlesome- ponies.' The question “What is it?” was frequently asked. The driver was Mr, Medill McCormick of Chica go and hie skill as a whip caused favorable comment; Of A Cooks Reputation Is the Shortening She Uses The quality of your food is all important’ as any good, cook will tell you, It isn't so much what you eat and how much you eat but rather, how it le cooked and how easily it digests. Food coolnd with lard isn’t the right tort of food for any stomach; it is sura to cause trouble sooner or later. On the contrary, thy most delicate stom ach can digest the richest sort of food it shortened with Cottolene.

Mr. aud Mrs. J. D. Robertson, who have been at the Masury Hotel lmvo left for Cuba by way of Tampa, Fla. They are making a tour through the south and are much pleased with Thomasville, Mr. Robertson is a banker in Kan sas City, Mo. Mrs. Robertson is a niece of the late H. M. Little of Thomasville and while here visit ed her aunt, Mrs. S. E. Little on Clay street. M. C. Sheffield the Merrillville lumberman spent Saturday in Thomaaville. Mr. T. O. Stanalaud of Boston visited the oity on Saturday. Coming up Jackson street the other night, a Times-Entorpriso man heard snob “sounds of revel ry by night,” as gave him pause. The sounds emanated from the baek of a colored iqan’s store on Jackson street. There seated around a table, by the Bickering light of ajfire were a crowd of ne groes enjoying a banquet. The oapacity of the Ethiopian for ex tracting enjoyment from life, has long been the envy of the Caucas ian, and this bunch was certainly having a suro enough good time that made all the other good times look like a oiiok quarter or to be more elegant “like moonlight un sunlight' or as water unto wine.” The light of the stars was ob scured by a thidk- pall of smoke arising from numerous “porfec- tos” held at various angles be. tween the shining molars of the black diners. The biggest “growl er” in captivity, a bucket with a mouth like the entrance to Mam moth Cave exuded a pale amber fluid, iudicating a fountain of joy more satisfactory thou the fabled fountain of youth sought' by Ponce De Leon in sunny Florida. The occasion was a bnnquot of the waiters at the Piney Woods hotel. The toastmaster hud all the oloquence acquired from many years of waiting upon distinguish ed gatherings and introduced eacli man in the most approved faslii jrJ The Btaccoto comments of tho guests around the festal hoard did much to add to the gaycty of the evening- * An extended account would take reams Of paper but in bnef it wont eomothing like this: The toastmaster says: Gentle men wo have with us this evening a gentlemen who is known far wide. Ho is known by many names but best as the“King Chief of the Skin Gamblers, Joe Gold stein, tho King Bee of Niggor Foot.” (Yah I Yah I Yalil from the audience punctuated by applause.) Mr. Goldstein arose gracefully, sipped his Anheusor daintily, cleared his throat and began: nicer ’cause hit don’t snow here. I love you all'andlhope to be with you ali as long as the stormy Bea of bliss Bhali roll and extend (“Lawd 1” this in tones of fervent admiration.) 'True friends like diamonds, (“He’saJewl precious but rare, false ones is like autumn leaves you fiuds them everywhere. (“Hear that nig ger.”) I hopes we will all finish the season in peace and harmony. I hopes we will none of us lose onr jobs aud will meet this summer in southern Tennessee”, and the speaker sat down amid a salvo of cries of “Tate Springs” aud a fu- silade of haud clappings. And so tho genuine good time—went on— till the ambrosiacsl malt gave out, and the first flush of dawn peoped over the eastorn hills. A Tribute. To a hand of loving hearts thoro came a mournful message Tho Master lmd called for one “puro in heart,” to stand before his face forever, and the death Angel came for our sister, Mrs. H. M.Cave Scarco did she await the unloos ing of human fetters to assume an angel’s form. For years she had quietly pursued , the path not pressod by many feet, aud a Sa vior’s love had smoothed for her, tho roughness of the way. Seeds of loving kindness were scattered as she passed, winning for her tho blessings which always come', to those who give themselves] in service for others. Every boart that know hor, holds dear the memory of her true and noble life. As a society we will miss nu ac- tivo, prompt and efficient mem ber; oue of its chief supporters, and a most faithful worker. As individuals, onr loss cannot be ox- pressed iu words. Who of us can ever forget tho ministry of her loving friendship, the deeds of kinduess, the wise, tender words, whose influence must live forever? So geutle a spirit, so true a friend, so pure a Christian, she hss'left these memories to lead us on to better, purer thoughts, and nobler, truer live9. It is resolved that we try to ex press to her bereaved family the sympathy we sosjneerely feel, aud pray that the Comforter will come Gem’mens.
