But Ooolltfo* Lend Gaea will 90 to Supreme Court o In Superior court Friday morning the motion for a new trial in the case of Nelson vs. Miller was overruled. This cam is of considerable public interest in atmnoh as it involves the ownership of several hundred acres of land, upon part which the town of Coolidgc is situated. Mrs. Nelson tlte plaintiff alleges that she was defrauded of this land by Mr. Wm. Miller. She obtained a verdict in Superior coart and it waa on this that the motion for a new trial was made and denied. The ease will now be carried to the Supreme ooart. The plaintiff is repre sented by Theo Titos and W. M. Ham mond and the defendant by J. H. Mer rill. J. F. Mitchell and C. P. Hansell.' The interior of Thomas* drag store is hrightaned np by a coat uf white paint. Several davs ago tho Tinies-Enter priso chronicled the homing of a negro lodge ludl at that towu on Monday night. The negroes probably thought this was done by whites, and in the present inflamed state of pnblic opinion various rumors ami mnch wild talk was doubtless indulged in. For instance a visitor from Boston Friday related that many people from the northeastern part of the coun ty had been to that town to pnrcha>e Are arms and cartridges. He farther statod tliat the midnight k!<j was lit by flames, doubtless, those of other lod^e halls, on Thursday night. The Times-Enterprise communicate d with Dr. J.Frank Harris and other re putable citizens of Pavo, at a late hot r Friday night. These unite in saying that the rumors of tronble are without foun dation, tliat no clash had occured to that time and that none was expected. Mr. O. C. Batey is spending a few days with Mr. Stafford, of Baraesville. To Meigs W ith Your Cotton The J. N.
