Lynchburg, Va., Daily Virginian.] Cartersville, Ga., June 15.—1 paid a brief visit to this charming town, the home of Rev. Samuel P. Jones, well known to many Lynch burg readers, and of Bill Arp, the rural humorist. Rev. Sam Jones has a beautiful home and an inter esting family here. sfr. Jones is also an enterprising man of busi ness and believes in developing the south. Cartersville is attract ing large numbers of visitors, drawn ithere by the immense beds of man- Sgiane.se, which is as valuable as gwlUi. On the mountains west of CarteffSfc'ille it is found in inex haustlbjg quantities. A company with Gov. .John B. Gordon, of At lanta, president, and of which Hon. X. C. Blanchard, of Louisiana, W. I*. Moomaw, of Roanoke, and other men of equal prominece are mem bers, will push the enterprise on to success.

The accessibility of these ores make it a paying invest ment to furnace men, and offers special encouragement to them to erect furnaces on the ground. The manganese is now being shipped in large quantities to Pittsburg and the large iron markets of the west. The Western and Atlantic from Chattanooga to Atlanta and via the Georgia Central to Savannah, gives Cartersville connections on all lines on land and sea, north and west. The East and West of Alabama con nects with four trunk lines at Bir mingham and the Western and At lantic at Cartersville. The Carters ville and Gainesville road and the Cartersville and Marysville road are projected and will be construct ed in a short time,both run through a fertile agricultural region and an immense mining belt. When com pleted Cartersville will have four railroad lines besides her present close connection with the Rich mond and Danville, Georgia Pacific, East Tennessee, Virginia and Geor-. gia, Louisville and Nashville, and other trunk lines to the south and west, north and south, thus giving j quick and reliable connections to i all points, placing Cartersville the f peer of any other place in the I world as to railroad facilities; in-3 suring cheap transportation fox* travel and freight.

The ey y e of the investor is now turned to Cartersville and the im mense mineral wealth of I ‘.artow county are hidden treasuries, which have been found and are now being eagerly appropriated. The climate is mild winter' and summer, and it is one c*f the.most healthful sections in the so uth. Malaria is unknown in nortln - rn Georgia.

Ochre has already become a large and im portant industry, with several mills and many more to come, to work the unlimited supply of tins pro duct. Among the enterprises now at Cartersville are the manganese refinery of Granger and others, and gas and water works; also to be erected at once, two iron furnaces of the Dade Coal Company, the rail road and machine shops of the East and West Railroad of Alabama, the reducing mills of the Etowah Min ing Company, a manganese fur nace, street car lines, and electric power and light plant. Cartersville has now two good hotels, five churches and private and public schools. Ore shipments of manga nese and iron ores are made daily to Chattanooga, Birmingham, An niston, Rising Fawn and Dayton, Ohio, and also heavy shipments of manganese to the Carnegie Steel Works. The coal and coke fields of Alabama are accessible, freight rates low, and the company have every assurance that coke will be laid down at Cartersville as low as at Birmingham. The town is supplied with water and gas. The water works have a capacity .of 8,000,000 gallons per day of freestone water. The drain age is perfect and a natural one. The east drains into Etowah river and the west into Pettit’s creek. The company owns extensive railroad and water fronts. Every foot of the land can be used for building lots.

"Mr. Her mon Clayton Leads to the Altar One of Florida’s Fair Daughter*. Last Thursday morning, at the home of the bride’s parents at Ocala, Fla. Mr. HermonM. Clayton, a pro gressive farmer of Floyd county, and Miss 3-ila Gray were united in marriage. , . The bride and groom arrived in this city Saturday afternoon and spent a day or two pleasantly with the family of tlui brother of the latter, Mr. R. A. Clayton. Mr. Clayton ha# u large number of friends in this city, and, indeed throughout the county, who extend to him sincere congratulations on winning the heart and hand ol one of Florida’s fairest daughters. He was for a number of years in busi ness here, but of late has been one of Floyd county’s best and most progressive farmers. He has won great popularity at his new home and is now being prominently spoken of as a suitable man to rep resent his county in the next legis lature. His bride, a most estima ble, cultured and refined young la dx 7 , will find a xvarm welcome among the friends of her husband in this section of Georgia. The Courant-American desires to add its congratulations and good wishes to the happy pair. Severely Shocked. A telegraph ojierator at Tfcoek mart received a severe shock last Sunday afternoon.

CARTERSXILLE, GEORGIA, THURSDAY, JUNE 20, 1800. THEY HAVE ARRIVED. The City’s New Hook and Ladder Trucks. A Company to he Organized at Once—lm • portant and Appret iiible Accession to Our Fire extinguishing Facilities. The hook and ladder trucks are here. They arrived yesterday and were pronounced very handsome by all wiio saw them. Firemen* and citizens turned out to see them, and it was the univer sal feeling that the tire department is now almost complete. We ven ture the assertion, that no town of the same size in the state has better apparatus or more thoroughly equipped department in every way than ours. As soon as the hook and ladder trucks were rolled out on the depot platform they were surrounded by people of all sizes, colors and con ditions. It was plainly evident that the feeling in regard to tiremanic matters hod gone up a notch or two, and nearly every one thought he would like to be one of the compa ny “to run with the machine.” Col. Warren White forgot his ail ments long enough to make the as sertion that lie aimed to get up a company of men of his age and size, and Mr. W. C. Baker thought middle-aged men would be prefera ble, and that lie was the man to boss the trucks. The young mar ried men thought they were the proper ones to have charge of it, while the old and young bachelors talked of combining to capture the prize. Even the kids set up a cry for it. The trucks are thirty feet long and carry a 60 foot extension lad der. In color it will conform to the most approved idea of things that are painted red. With the trucks are two axes, two door picks, that will break down ail obstruc tions, two pole hooks, one large chain hook, twelve rubber buckets, lanterns, crow bars and thirty feet of rope. On the ladders are painted, “Cartersville Fire De partment” and the buckets have on them “C. E. I).” The trucks were given an escort ofhftppF to the place prepared for th.exji apd jtjher/e they will stay until the new ,b''gaJiirathu takes them out for an airing; Chief Akin has ( cppmissioned Mr. Benjamin Mejl captain pf the hook and ladder company ap.d he will at once prepare to organize his men. He has already the names of ten men on his list and he will at once increase the membership to twenty. It will take at least that many to pull the trucks. Mr. Mell thinks he will get up the crack company of the.town. -Mr. Meli came to this city from Atittpta and is a former Marietta boy. Ale is an experienced fireman ai *<l a wever young man. \ tere’s to the hook and ladder compMte 1 ' x p/tHMAJGt CONTEST. The Local Cotepahie* Jbive a Lillie Tilt. The two reel companies Jiad a ph-asant little contest last Friday afternoon. The members were not out in full force, both companies being short of men. However, two fairly good runs were made, under the existing circumstances, and they were much enjoyed by a large number of spectators. The distance run was one hun dred and fifteen yards, the plug at the Jones carriage factory corner being used. The first run made was by com pany No. 2, under command of ac.- ing captain Mell. The boys started out with a splendid dasli but some delay in making connections made them forty seconds in getting water from the start. Company No. I then got in line for a race, Capt. Miles Dobbins in command. Their time was in thir ty-eight seconds, and they were de clared victors. They made connec tions rapidly ami the early spurt of water was hailed with exclamations of delight. A “shoo-fly” race, or “ground con nections,” was next in order, and picked runners from each company were selected. No. 2 had the first start. Vesta Harxvell and James Alexander made the nozzle connections and Charlie Alley and Charlie Collins were at the plug. The time made was thirty-four seconds. The runners for No. 1 were Will Graham and William A. Williams fur the nozzle and Harry Hall and Evan Mays the plug. The run was a pretty one and connections fault less. It was the best run of the afternoon. Time 27 seconds. The runs were not altogether sat isfactory. As stated above, tlu* com panies were short of men. Both La <ki better, and they will when ever occasion requires it. With more practice they will become first-class fire companies. It was the first contest te*tween the two \ local companies and was, therefore, enjoyed by both firemen and spec tators. We hope the boys will treat the people to an occasional contest. A little friendly rivalry cm do no harm and would be the means of inducing the boys to take much more interest in tiremanic matters. (Mae thing we have been requested to do, and that is to warn people not to drive over the hose. This lias been done by several parties, and it should not be repeated. There is a city ordinance against it and cases will be made against those who violate it, BARTOW SUPERIOR COURT. The Jurors Brawn for July Term, 181)0, GRANO Jr HORS JULY TKIiM, 181)0. .1. b.

Prof, Ronald Johnston, late su perintendent of Cedartown’s public school, wjis in the city Tuesday shaking hands with friends. He has been rusticating for ten days on the magnificent farm run by his son-in-law, Mr. Dobbs, near Cal houn. He was elected unanimously the other day to the principaisjiip of Gordon County Institute at Cal houn. This was a distinguished compliment, as he was a stranger personally to all the board. He has also been elected superintendent of Tallapoosa’s public schools and it is known that several other positions are open to him. Prof. J jhnston is a ripe scholar, fine instructor and most exemplary gentleman, and the community securing his ser vices may consider itself well favored. A Compliment to the Courant-American Baid a gentleman, who is largely interested in the new land compa ny, to a Courant-American reporter the other day: “I was first attracted to this section by your admirable paper. I thought, after reading the first copy that I saw, that if the town and surroundings were just as rep resented, there was no reason why a large city could not be built here. A personal investigation lias convinced me that everything you have said is true, and there is now no one more enthusiastic in regard to tiie future of Cartersville than myself. You are doing a great work for your town and county, and it will certainly bear rich results.” Coming from the source it did, tin* compliment is one that we can not but reel proud of, and we quote the gentleman’s remark to show what a real live paper can do for a town. If you want ice you can find it in one of Young <fc Mays’ shakes. ft PRIMARY TO BE HELD.
