Grassdale has given another of her beauties Uo grace the society oi Summer ville. Thus they scatter, but no matter where they go we shall ever be proud ot them. Young men, take notice, we have u lew more left, but are not anxious to part with them. Miss Lula Hawkins, after spending some time in Marietta very pleasantly, has returned home. Last Monday was rather a sad day in our Dale, so many of the young people lelt, Miss Anna Cox, who has been visiting Mrs. Tom Pittard, left for her home in Burke county. Xo young lady who has been among us can count more friends than Miss A., and they are always sorry when she leaves. One of our young men is very anxious that she should decide to make her home among us. Henry Saxon and Mr. Lane left for their home in Orlando, Fla. Their friends have not heard whether they suc ceeded in getting through. Will Battle has gone to Atlanta to at tend lectures at one of the medical col leges. It will only be a few years until it will be old and young I)r. Battle. John Howland has gone near Augusta, to engage in railroad building* Kev. TANARUS, K. Hawkins liar, rbthrhed home from a vbry pleasant visit to his old home in South Carolina. Murray Hawkins came up to see his Daisy, who was visiting his father's family, and spent Sunday with them. He was accompanied by his sister, Miss Alice. Willie and Bunard Herring caught two very fine opossums one night. Some of the neighbors were invited to help eat them, and after sampling them thor oughly pronounced them just delicious. She still says “howdy Josie.” Kev. P. E. Hawkins has accepted the call of the Crow Spring Baptist church, and will serve them next year. Col. R. C. Saxon is suffering very much with neuralgia. f rofton. CASSVI LLE. Sunday was a beautiful day, and a large congregation greeted Bro. M right at the Baptist ctinreh. He preached a splendid sermon, one that is calculated to do much good, if heeded by his hear ers. He also preached another good sermon at night to a fair congregation. Next Sunday is Bro. White s day at the Methodist church. The “candy pulling" did not take place at Mr. Gilreath’s Friday night, as we stated last week. Postponed indefi nitely. A party of ten—six girls and four boys, .vent ’possum hunting Saturday night and succeeded in bringing in two small animals, according to report, For the voung ladies' sakes, we will not tell who r he boys were. Ed Layton will leave in several weeks lor Chattanooga, to cast his lot with the people of that enterprising city. Ed is a boy of whom we are proud, and we shall be sorry indeed to give him up. But, nevertheless, his will and not ours be done; so here luck to Ed Layton. “When the hurried shadows gather Over all the starry spheres, And the melancholy darkness Gently weeps in rainy tears, What a joy to press the pillow Of a cottage chamber bed And listen to the patter Of the soft rain overhead.” Sam Sly. CASS STATION. Opossum and potatoes constitute one of the most fashionable dishes that we now have to exercise our masticating apparatus on. lam glad to say they are plentiful. Our matrimonial market has been quire dull this year, but we hope that it will get on a boom now, as the time is very appropriate. Mr. Frank Vernon ships a carload of country produce, consisting of cattle, fowls and apples, to Florida this week. V A young lady asked a gentlemen the difference between yellow fever and mar ; rying. And upon being told that he was unable to tell she said : When frostcoines i one stops and the other commences. On Tuesday, 16th inst., Mrs. Taylor was on her way home from a visit to S. C., and just before reaching Atlanta she was stricken with paralysis in the left side of her face. At the present writing (Tuesday) she is still in Atlanta. We are glad to state that the stroke was not as bad as was at first thought. Prof. Marshall spent several days in Dallas last week with a view of locating there next year. We do not know what he has decided to do, but sincerely hope that he will continue to be one of us. Miss Lucy M. Hargis has returned to the school for the blind in Macon. She left last Tuesday, accompanied by her father, Capt. R. R. Hargis. Messrs. Fred and Dick Milam, from Stiloeboro, spent Sunday afternoon with some o f ‘Cass Station’s young ladies. Rev. Mr. Taylor spent several days in Atlanta last week visiting his wife, who received a paralytic stroke en route from S. C. Mr. J, IL Walker visited Tilton and Rome during the week. Capt, Win. Browne spent Monday in Rome. It makes a poor fellow feel mighty good, and causes him to experience some very curious, though sweet sensations, to have some fair creature smile lovingly on him as he travels along with a weary footstep down the rugged pathway of this transitory life. Is’nt it so ? w. c. w. APAIRSVILLE. fo*of. Cain closed the fall term of his school last Friday. And as a testimony of a teacher’s tender solicitude and the faithful discharge _of every duty that makes a good scholar, a pleasant occa sion was offered the members of this school and their friends on the evening of the day above mentioned. In response to a very cordial invitation, though couched in a modest way as to the na ture of this entertainment, your knight of the quill wended his way up to the academy under the rays of a bright October sun and a desire to be a specta tor on this occasion. Long tables, on whose margin plates were laid, and the owner of this stoneware familiarizing the coat of arms stamped thereon that they might not get misplaced, made an interesting picture. Further on we no tice the steaming boilers, from which a large spoon was lifted in the hand of some pretty maiden fair with serious intent, then the merry voices from little children with all exultation, was conclu sive evidence that a veritable candy cooking was now in progress, and that the pulling time would be determined on when the future destiny was read through the “drip” from that cooking b,y some expert. This crystalline vegetation was then in trim to knead or pulled out into sticks, and most every one went at it with a will until it looked a monogram of gestures, with a good picture on the line of calesthenics. Some pride was manifested by the younger in getting their candy to a more decent color, and an occasional challenge could be heard “that mine is \Vhiter than yours.” A young American would then let fall his treasured stock, and with grievance and anger look around to see who was watch ing, then proceed with all precision the pulling of candy and everything else that was mingled with it from the mishap. Everybody enjoyed themselves. Every body had candy enough and ate Q. S. as the doctors say, without any medical assistance. The incidents of the day were furthered into a masquerade party given in the academy at night, and at seven o’clock the doors were thrown open, and then entered subjects fit for Easter decorations. Again the seven colors were proportioned off on lad and lassie. Those in costume mingled with each other with an occasional prome nade. After the sign of recognition was made, an end man was seen now aud then in his comical looks with an attempt to kick a tumbler of water from the mantle. Games were indulged in until a late hour. Every known device in a quiet way were resorted to in making all have a nice time, and we are confident no one was disappointed. Prof. Cain and his good lady, with the assistance of the generous young ladies, deserve especial thanks for their efforts in making this occasion so successful. —Cartersvi le’s Dn Ms Er poriim]--- NOW READY FOR THE FALL AND WINTER BUSINESS WITH The Handsomest and Freshest Stock brought to towne .ATtractive !

W. SATTERFIELD. m2.40c PAUPER HOME. The wind is blowing ver, unpleasant this morning for cotton pickers, but most of the fields are snow white, and we will have to bend our backs and go at it. Mr. John Hunter aud wife, of Cobb, are visiring their nephew, Mr. W.. B. Vaughan, much to ids delight. Some of our people attended the fourth quarterly conference held at Miller's Chapel last Wednesday. In Cue morning we heard an excellent sermon from ihe Presiding Elder Lowery. The clever peo ple of that place had dinner on the ground and we heartily partook of it. The conference then met and were until very near sun-down getting through with the business. We had two sermons yesterday instead of one; in the morning by Rev. E. J. Shaw, and in the afternoon by our clever brother Rev. W. T. Hamby; he then an nounced that he would preach again for us the first Sunday evening in next month on “Moses' Choice.” Most of our young people went to the singing at Miller’s Chapel yesterday. Mr. \V. T. Goode and Mr. Jim Jordan were among them, accompanied by, well we will not say who. Billy Jones, Sail Scenes at the Wreck. Rome, October 22.—A dispatch from Patenza says that there was 4,000 pas sengers on the train which was crushed by the landslide a few days ago. One hundred and fifty dead and wounded have been identified. Many of the vic tims are unknown. Scores continue to be unearthed. Soldiers are working hard at the wreck. The work is impeded by the cold and snow. An entire theatrical company was killed: Several headless and armless corpses have been found in the neighboring river. A mother who had been driven mad by the catastrophe refused to release from her embrace her two dead children. A youug priest was buried for two hours, and when extricated it was found that his hair had turned white. An entire family, consisting of six persons, was killed. A dispatch from Nebraska City, Neb., reports that a heavy snow, lasting near ly all day and covering the ground to the depth of three inches, fell there Sun day. Twin Rabies. This is the heading of a large three column advertisement which recently occurred in the Courant-American. Those who read it will no doubt be anx ious to know whether it is true that all of the articles named in the list of pres ents are sent in each box of the “Sweet Home Soap.” Yes, it is true, and the firm which makes the offer is reliable and well established. “Sweet Home Soap” is of an extra ordinary fine quality, and no one is dis appointed who uses it. It bears no comparison to the cheap soaps with which our markets are flooded. The method of selling the soap is a novel one and readily commends itself to every one-, since those who buy 'it get all the profits usually paid out for traveling salesmen, wholesale and retail grocers, etc. Besides, no payment is asked until the goods are received and have ei on trial in the house for thirty days. The soap is delivered right at the door, all freight charges prepaid and arrange ments made so that if one is not satisfied after seeing the presents and using the soap, the box will be taken away without expense or outlay of any kind. A postal card sent to J. D. Larkin A Cos., Buffalo, N. Y., will bring a box on trial. Macon Telegraph: Germany sent 5,- 500,000 gallons of gin and rum to Africa last year, and, if a published story about the quality of the liquor is true, it cannot be doubted that Bismarck, in trying to conquer the country, is employing an agency more powerful than Krupp guns. The story, told at a church congress, was to the effect that the body of a go rilla, put into a barrel of the German liquor for preservation during transpor tation to Europe, had the hair burned off as with aflame. It must be acknowledged that this is doingjust a little better than the best American forty-rod, and the Africans are no doubt falling thick aud fast. Bismarck is a man of gin, as well as of blood and iron. It strikes us that this is not a civilized and Christian business. The firm of Nathan Corwith A Cos., of Chicago, went under to the tune of $2,- 000,000, because they tried to corner the entire out-put of lead and it wouldn’t corner. Hit ’Km Again. The following resolutions have been unanimously adopted by the Farmers' Alliance of Thomas county: Whereas, The manufacturers of jute bagging have entered into a combination by which the farmers of the south are deprived of thousands of dollars of their legitimate profits, and, Whereas, We feel confident that cotton can be substituted for jute, thereby cre ating a home market for thousands of bales of our poorest cotton, for which there is but little sale now, and also keeping at home millions of dollars, which are now sent out of the country annually for tire purchase of jute, there fore, Be it resolved, Ist. That after this season, we will not use any more jute bagging, 2nd, That if cotton bagging proves to be effective, we pledge ourselves as farm ers and as members of the Farmers' Alliance of Thomas county, (la., to use no other bagging but cotton after this season, and ask our brother farmers and alliance men throughout the south to co-operate with us in trying to protect ourselves. 3rd, That we put all parties interested, on notice of this fact; and further, that we ask our home manufacturers to give us cotton bagging at a reasonable profit, and pledge ourselves to patronize them in preference to all others. Public Cost of the Squeeze in Wheat. Washington Craftsman. On Monday next, it is announced, one cent will be added to the price of every loaf of bread sold in this city. Ao doubt this will also be done in every other city in this country where the value of one cent is not taken from the size and value of the present loaf. Estimating that the 60,000,000 inhabitants of this country are grouped into 12,000,000 families and that each family will consume two loaves per day we ’have the sum of 24,000,000 cents, or $240,000 per day levied upon the American people. The Lane mills lire now manufacturing 15,000 yards a day of the new cotton bagging. The fabric was curiously tested by representatives of the board of under writers. Bales covered with it and with jute, part of them comprised, were sandwiched in a heap in rise -turret and set on fire. The jute burned quickest. The file was extinquished with hose !>e fore it got much headway.—Sugar Bowl and Farm Journal Special Term Uartow Superior Court. Whereas, on the 4th day of Sept. is>s. Janies M. couper, B. M.
