There are signs all about over the land and there Is no more dependable indication titan the announcement of Davison-Nicholson Co.’s Spring Open ing whiqh appeared In Sunday's Ban ner. This big. popular house sets the pace, and the public generally has learned to rely upon these spring and fail openings as implicitly for infor mation ns to the seasons as the farm er and the gardener rely upon Greer’s almanac to tell when to plant this and that and when to prepare for tho crops. So do the ladies of tilts city and section rely upon this great firm to announce the change of season— from winter to spring and from sum mer to fall. The hy-word now is: ‘No, I have not bought my suit and hat yet—I am waiting for Davison- Nicholson Co.’s opening.” Yesterday the delightful weather, the pretty women, and the store of stores met In the annual event on the corner of Clayton and Jackson, and Washington and Jackson streets The opening began promptly Monday morning as advertised and from the time the doors opened till closing time the hig store was crowded with women and 'children inspecting the greatest line of fashionable millinery ver displayed at an opening in Ath ens. ’ Hats from a moderate price up to $75 each were displayed in the millinery parlors which were a scene of beauty. In fact, the whole big store was pretty picture—pretty and fresh as an orchard of Elbertas in bloom. The show windows on Clayton and those new ones on Washington street were dreams of beauty—both In the bril liant noon sun on the south and in the soft northern light toward the Geor gian hotel. The three entrances from Mr. C. K. Ober, of New York, who Is connected with the International Committee of the Y.. M. C. A., left this morning for Philadelphia. Hr. Ober is always a welcome visitor to Athens. He has many friends who remember him a-s having made one of the dedi cation speeches when the present T. U. C. A. building was opened years ago.

EASY TERMS. C. D. Campbell. 228 14 Clayton •% MARKETS Athens Middling, 14 1-2 to 149-16c. New York, March 7.—The cotton market had little support this morn ing and opened easy and unchanged to 8 points lower. It was forced down violently in the first twenty minutes under heavy bear pressure, chlefiy di rected against May and July. Stop orders were reported in botli of these positions, and the market experienced much difficulty in digesting tho large amount of cotton offered for sale. After selling off to 14.35 and 14.14 for May and July, the bulls gave the market some support and there was a fair sized rally, which was held up to tlie la3t hour. NEW YORK COTTON. Wash goods.

February 20th. his re mains were accompanied by members of the Masonic fraternity, the family and friends, to ML Vernon church, where he server as pastor for about fourteen years, and where one of his children was the first occupant of the city of the dead, and after a brief ser vice conducted by Rev. J. H. Wood, assisted by Rev. W. A. Chastain, he was laid to rest with Maspnic honors near the two little ones and beside his former companion, who was be fore marriage .Miss Jane Paxson, and the worthy mother of seven of the surviving children. The present wife surviving him was Miss Pople Thompson, of Oconee county, who Is also a consecrated Christian worker and has been a lov ing mother to all the children &» well as a true helper in the ministerial work of her lamented husband. Thomas M. Foster was an unceas ing and self-denying worker as shown from his private memorandum book. During a ministry of 37 years he preahed 5287 sermons, having 2180 additions. His total compensation was $15,704.65, making an average of only $424.45 a year, and. yet from oth- ei important work he took time for 13,000 religious visits. He was withal n liberal giver. His financial system and economi cal plans would have made many a man rich, hut with him they were only to support his family, educate his children and establish the cause of primitive Christianity, all of which were dearer to him than his own life. He was chairman of the local hoard of officers at Winder and made many sacrifices to help erect their splendid new meeting house. He was a man of strong character istlcs, but with happy flexible adapta tion. Ho made a strong Impress up on the children, as evidenced by the fact that three of hie sons are In the ministry or will enter soon, one of them having consented to take np his father’s work at once. According to his own preference the work of Sec- nod Timothy 4:7 may be applied to him. “I have fought a good ftglit. T finis:,rd my <-so T have Sep. ’he faith.” si '-f! ’0£i CAPT.
