By Prof. Ronald Johnston, the able
and popular principal of the Cedartown
public school, we were shown through
the new school building recently finished
in that town. The building was erected
after plans furnished by Prof. Johnston,
and is conveniently arranged for the pur
poses of the school. It is “T” shaped.
The lower floor has a room each for the
grades, and the upper story is to be fitted
up entire for a hall for public exhibitions.
It is to be seated with opera chairs, and
will hold an audience of between five and
six hundred. Prof. Johnston deserves
much credit for the work he has done in
bringing the public school and educa
tional interests of Cedartown to their
present status, and the people of Carters
ville, who know him so well, will be grat
ified at the statement we are prepared to
make, that his efforts are duly appre
ciated by the people of his town. Prof.
Johnston, who yet feels a deep interest
in Cartersville, expressed to us the hope
that she would proceed at once to secure
the one thing needful for her permanent
prosperity —public schools.

Forgery. (5} g
On Saturday morning last a negro
man called at the Howard Bank and pre
sented for payment a check for $79.80.
The check bore the name of William
Bet ton as drawee, and W. H. Felton as
drawer. The filling out and signature
were in the same handwriting, which so
little resembled that of Dr. Felton that
Mr. Will Howard recognized it at once as
a forgery. He turned to the negro and
said,‘‘l believe l will' have you arrested.”
The negro at once shot out of the door
and made rapid flight down the street,
and the officers were at once notified.
A number of citizens pursued the fugi
tive to the outskirts of the town on
Skinner street and lost sight of him as
he fled towards the woods. Marshal
Wilkerson followed soon on horseback
and extended the search but to no avail.
The negro, from descriptions given, is
thought to be Jack Kellar, and it is
believed he will be caught. The check
has been shown to Mrs. Felton, who
testified to its spuriousness.
City Court Postponed.
On account of Supreme court reaching
Cherokee circuit, and consequent absence
of attorneys, of this bar, the December
term of the city court will be postponed
to the 3d Monday in December. Jurors
drawn for the second Monday will be re
quired to attend on the third Monday
instead of the second Monday.

New Schedule.
Anew schedule went into effect on the
East and West railroad last Monday.
The only change effect-ining the morning
passsenger going west is that it makes
an hour's quicker time between this
place and Hell City. The eastward
bound morning train leaves Pell City at
11:4-5 instead of 8:00 as heretofore, and
arrives at Cartersville at 9:20 instead of
4:35 in the evening. The evening west
bound train leaves Cartersville at 4:40
and reaches Broken Arrrow at 3:09 in
the morning. A passenger going east
leaves Broken Arrow as 10:10 p. in. and
reaches Cartersville at 9:00 a. m. There
are no Sunday trains.

Judge Milner.
“Judge Milner.” It sounds familiar
already. The closest race before the Leg
islature was that between the gallant
Judge J. C. Fain and Col. Thos. W. Mil
ner, of this city, for the judgeship of this
(Cherokee) Circuit. It was a very excit
ing race, and they ran so dose together,
that it was not known who was elected
until the full vote was announced. Then
it was found that Hon. T. AY. Milner had
a majority of five votes.
This is the biggest victory of theseries.
Judge Fain is one of the most popular
men in Georgia—clever, big-hearted,
genial and brave 4 , and with a tine record
as a judicial officer. This is the first
time he was ever defeated, and many a
man will regret it fully as much as the
judge himself.
It goes without the saying that Tom
Milner will fill this high office ably and
satisfactorily. He is a well posted law
yer, with large ajstore of common sense,
and a well balanced judgement. He is a
man of faultless morals.
This circuit has always been fortunate
in securing good judges, and the record
will not be broken by honest, able, noble
hearted Tom Milner.

Sore Throat and Whooping Cough Cured.
Atlanta, (La., Jan. 16, 1888.
Hunnicutt Medicine Cos.:
Gentlemen—My two-year old child had
whooping cough in its severest form, and
I ceuld find nothing to relieve it until I
procured a bottle of Hunnicutt's Throat
and Lung Cure. After taking about one
lourtn of same, the dear little one was
cured completely, and has not had the
slightest, cough since. I have used the
remainder of the bott e in my family since
for colds and coughs, and in every in
stance a cure was affected, especially in
my own case. I had an aggravated sore
throat and hacking cough of three weeks’
standing, and was cured with four doses.
