A TRIBUTE TO DR. HENRY HULL.
The Athens Manufacturing Co 1
Athens, Ga., Oct. 5 1881. j
At a meeting of the stockholders
of the Athens manufacturing compa
ny held Oct. fth at their office, the
following resolution was passed by a
standing vote, and ordered published
in the city papers, a copy sent to the
family, also spread on a blank leaf of
the m.nules:
Resolved, That Dr. Ilenrv Hull,
the former president of this company
has enjoyed our administration and
esteem during his official term of of
fice foi over twenty years.
The impulse of his high character
we find visibly stamped on every de
partment of this company.
His conservative mind aud man
ners tended to make all ,business en
trusted to his care successful.
We sorrow over our loss, yet rec
ognizing his gain, the labor of a long
life is doubtless realized in the voice
of tho Master, '‘Well done good and
taithful servant, enter thou into the
joy of thy Lord.”
F W Cheney, R L Bloomfield,
President. Secretary.
WINTERVILLE DOTS.
The mereha'its cry : “What will
we de if we don’t get some cotton ?
Mr. Dave Green, of Woodville,
spent a tew days Inst week with his
sister, Mrs. W II Winter.
On Friday night last, Mr. J R
Haynes had his cotton house broken
open, and about a half bale of cotton
stolen.
The meeting at tliis place was pro
tracted last Sunday to go on through
this week. Services at night only.
Some time since a passenger from
the train walked into the store of Mr.
F II Kroner, and called tor two ci
gars, lor which he threw down 25
cents, on the counter. Mr. Bud Kidd
vhe clever clerk gavo him two 2A
cent cigars and 40 cents in change.
Who can beat this for cleverness.
A CHAPTER OF ACCIDENTS.
Last week was a week of accidents,
in our community. Thursday, while
Mr. £ H Bray and his wife were out
picking cotton their little three-year-
old daughter got a candle and lit it,
and while playing around it, her
dress caught tire and was burned off
of her. She was so badly burnt
that she died that evening
about 7 o’clock. Last Friday .morn
ing, while Mr. Thos. Hutcheson was
working at his cin, he had his hand
caught in the belt and very badly
mashed ; On last Saturday while Mr.
Redin Paterson, of Madison county,
was on bis way home, his mules took
flight and run away with him, throw
ing out him and his little brother, who
was with him, and teariug his new
wagon all to pieces.

ANOTHER BURGLARY.
Mr. Casper Burris’ Store Entered and Robbed.
Last night about 9 o'clock and just
after services at the Methodist church
had closed Mr. J. H. Huggins, Jr.
and Mr. E. E. Jones, were together
near McGinty’s stole on Jackson
street, when they saw a pile of goods
close by, and upon examination, dis
covered that they were uew and evi
dently just out of some store. Know-
thal something was wrong they
hid themselves and it was but a few
minutes before they saw a little ne
gro boy with another armful carrying
them to the place where the other
goods were. They immediately nab
bed him aud hastened to the place
where be got them, wbich proved to
be the rear window of Mr. Casper
Morris’ store. Here they found an
other boy inside who was ^collecting
the goods and handing them out. He
was taken in tow and both were hand
ed over into the custody of the police.
It is believed there was another en
gaged in the work but be was not
caught. The officers have au idea
who he Is, however, and are on the
watch lor him.

lie. We have so often referred to
ihis.gentlemaa, as a polite affable and*
accommodating host, that it is not
uecessary to say more than that he
will continue to make every effort to
pleas*) his customers. His table will
be supplied with the best the market
affords and his nice new rooms will
be found entirely comfortable.
To gentlemen in the city who
board, we would commend the Cli-
nard House as on i of the best places
they can find. Prices will be about
as moderate as any other boarding
house, and it is closo to business. In
the busy season many business men
do not have lime to go home for din
ner, and they can bridge the difficul
ty by stopping at Cliuard’s, where they
will always fiud a good dinuet smok
ing hot, and ready when called for.
Athens is well supplied now in the
matter of hotels, and they should be
patronized. Call at Clmard's.
Somethin;; Tor Ministers.
Rev, J. A. Muuday thinks there is
no physician equal to Dr.John Gerdiue
in a< case of sore throat, and cites his
ownexperience thue:lie had sore throat
for three years, with frequent hemor
rhages during the time, and could gel
no relief till Dr. Gerdine prescribed
for him. Alter a time his voice be
came as clear us a bell, his tliront
trouble left him, and hu was enabled
to preach forty-seven sermons iu a
very short period without inconven
ience. He attributes his cure to the
remedies of Dr. Gerdiue, and we pub
lish what he says as much to give
credit to the skill and learning of nu
able physician, as to benefit ministers
and others similarly affected. Preach-
cher’s sore throat has come to be a
distinctive disease and is generally
prevalent am *ug ministers ot all de
nominations. Mr. Munday is desi
rous that all affected this way may
know where they can be cured. We
will stale that Dr. Gerdine has noth
ing to do with publishing these facts.
two markets. Mr. Doster says that
ths cotton w as ginned in the town of
Madison. He also gained the advan
tage of a better market to buy goods.
Klllcn a Rattlesnake.
Mrs. Rfiwson, living about three
tuiles from the city, discovered a rat
tlesnake near her hen house on f
urdav, and with commendable pluck
she attacked and killed it It was
four and a half feet long and had ten
rattles. It isn’t every woman that
can do such a thing.
It
was discovered that one of them had
gone to the top of the hoose, broken
a paue of glass in .the sky-light and
with a rope let himself down into the
store. He then opened the back win
dow and the gang wonld have soon
carried off hnndredsjot dollars’ worth
of goods if they had not been caught.
It was a most fortunate circum
stance that these young men were in
such close proximity at the right time.
Most of the goods were recovered. At
a bouse where the boys staid they bad
already deposited a quantity in
trunks, boxes and other receptacle-.
One ot them confesses to having been
in the store a week before and car
ried off many valuable articles. They
will probably receive a lengthy term
in the chaingang.
The leader in this mischief is a boy
who lias been employed about
tbe store as porter, bis business being
to sweep the floor, bring water, etc.,
and In this way he learned bow to
carry oat his scheme of robbery. This
is but one of several similar cases and
we believe onr merchants would do
well to refuse to thus employ - these
little negroes further for such work,
and get while boys instead. We bone
tbe police may be successlul in appre
hending all other accomplices of these
thieves and let them be placed where
they will no more Double or annoy
with their deviltry.
Haw Your Carpets cleaned.
Messrs. Curran & Co., the well
known carpet renovators of Atlanta,
whose advertisement has been in the
Banner for some time, have a repre
sentative in Athens, in the person of
a colored man, J. D. M orris, who is
ready to wait upon onr citizens. He
is certified to by Messrs.' Curran <fc
Co., u being thoroughly competent
to do the work he undertakes. He
baa been in their employ a long time
and they are responsible for his work.
Give him a trial, when he calls on
you.

Mormon Mischief.
At Brooks’ Mills, near Cedartou-n,
a few nights ago, a party ot Mormon
elders attempted to hold services at the
house of a convert, and just as all
were ready to begin, a general up
roar was heard without which plainly
told that parties had come to put a
stop to the proceedings. A number
of shots were fired, but nobody was
hurt.
The elders were preparing to get
away in haste when they were met
by the invaders, who plainly informed
them that the good citizens of
the neighborhood hud made up their
minds that no more Mormon meet
ings would be permitted in the
neighborhood. The elders fled, and
will doubtless steer dear of that
quarter for tbe present at least. It is
said they had succeeded in making
quite a number of converts among the
lower classes of the neighborhood.
Care in the Use or Festal Cards.
Great care should be taken in the
use of postal cards, which should
never be employed it yon have any
thing of an unusual’ or ambiguous
nature to communicate. An edito
rial writer of the New York Times,
evidently writing of a personal expe
rience, says: ‘A newspaper man
once planned a story in which a lady
unhappily married was to sue for a di
vorce, and, to make sure of being
correct, wrote a lawyer friend, stating
the case as he meant to describe it.
Back came a postal card: You could
not get j» divorce on the grounds you
mentio^In New York; you might in
Connecticut or Maine ’ This caW
handed in by the carrier to Mia.
Newspaper one forenoon, when her
husbapd was away on business, raised
a breeze in the household which wa*
not allayed for some days.*
A few years ago, Louis A. Wiltz
Governor of Louisiana, was a model
ot physical ami" intellectual whole-
someness. By some fatality, he has
been brought to death’s door, and at
last resigned his office. Mr. Wiltz is
barely 40 years of age, and is cut off
in the glory of his days*
Gov. Hamilton, o( Maryland, has
a seventeen year old daughter, worth
