Few towns can boast of as large a

—but temptingly tender and toothsome.

We hope some power will prevent the
laying out of alleys instead of streets in
the new sections of the city. Our streets
are all too narrow. Our streets should
all be double their present width. In lay
ing out new city lots, it is a very costly
“saving” to cut it up with alleys and
call them streets. \V ho wants to build a
$1<U)00 houseon a 30 or 40 feet street?
With an increase of population our pres
ent streets must necessarily be widened.

A week ago last Saturday night, two
colored bucks, Cole Moody and George
Shell, aged about IG, out at Meehanics
ville, got into a desperate combat be
cause the latter went with the former’s
girl. Shell received a powerful gash in
his throat around under the ear. The
blood came with such a violent gush as
to greatly alarm the witnesses to the
encounter and the aid of a physician
was sought, who lufd great difficulty in
arresting the flow and preventing death
at once. Moody was arrested and com
mitted to jail. We fear there is a small
grove of gallows-timber sprouting here
abouts.
There are certain odds and ends of
cleaning and straightening up that
should not be neglected at this season. A
little paint here and there to brighten up
the shop, the business place or the home
is never amiss. A little whitewash ap
plied where painting is impracticable
serves a good purpose. In the shorten
ing days of winter daylight will be
greatly retarded by dirty windows. 4he
panes cleaned, and lights put in, all
leaky places in roofs stopped all these
serve to banish discomfort. All things
of frequent need had bettei be put
hand v about the house than be searched
for with a lantern on a chill nitfht when
the thermometer is down neai zeio.
Cartersville has twice, recently.escaped
what might have been, under conditions
favorable for a spread ot the flames, re
ally serious conflagrations. A fortnight
ago at the hour of one in the morning a
rough wood structure where was stored
a quantity of lime to be used in the con
struction of the Dobbins building, caught
fire from the slacking of the lime under a
leak in the roof, and was rapidly con
sumed. A switchman of the W. A A. ob
served the flames in their incipieney and
blew ominous calls from an engine that
drew a crowd which had a goodly task in
saving the contiguous buildings, includ
ing tlie valuable block of business build
ings fronting Main street, despite the
fact that a rain was falling. Last week,
through the carelessness of a negro boy
left in charge while the regular occupants
were away, the dwelling houseof Esquire
Aaron Collins, now rented by Captain
Posted, took fire at an early hour in the
morning, and a quick alarm was given
and a determined crowd soon stayed the
flames, which unchecked in their incipi
ency. might have devoured much valua
ble residence property. Circumstances
were favorable in both these instances,
but who would attempt to gainsay the
fact that the city stands constantly in
danger of a destructive conflagration ?
Now that waterworks are assme 1 to the
city, let 11s without delay take steps in
the important direction of securing
needed protection against fire.
