The Cartersville riot was not quite
no extensive as the little trouble they

provement now, and before many
years this will be the foremost city of
North Georgia.
Mr. Miles G. Dobbins Is making

Main street is fairly glistening with
| paint. A Cartersville fellow can’t
; help but feel proud to walk down
this popular business street. This
improvement mania is contagious
and we hope every man in town will
catch it.
Mays & Pritchett now have the
handsomest store room in the city.

place. Wonderful ho.v much a few

audience and has created much favor
able comment.
, Mr. A. C. Williams has so far im
proved from his recent illness that

fsionally. He was confined to the
house for three months, and his many
friends are glad to welcome him on
the streets again
@ur job press is now running all
the time and sending out some spier,
did work. We hope the business
men of this section will remember to
patronize home enterprise, especially
when we propose to duplicate Atlan
ta styles and prices.
Several gentlemen from the north
were in Bartow county last week
prospecting for ochre. It is highly
probable that they will locate and
commence work soon, as ochre of a
very fine quality was found in large
quantities near Cartersville.
Our typo setter made the correspon
dent from Broken Arrow say last
week that the coal fields there, were
“comparatively exhausted” instead
of “comparatively exhaustless.” The
country around Broken Arrow is a
solid coal bed so to speak.
The general verdict of the public
is that the girls are entitled to the
cake in writing up the marriageable
young folks of the towr. The fellow
who wrote it suggests that they had
better material than he did. How
very wrong he is in that opinion.
Calico was cheap in Cartersville
yesterday. Our dry goods merchants
had ou war paint and were “cutting
rates” in a style that was refreshing
to the average countryman. At
present prices, even an editor might
afford to weai a calico shirt front.
The biographical sketch of Col.
Warren Akin which appears on our
first page will be read with much In
terest. He was well known in North
Georgia both as a preacher and law
yer, and the brief history of his life
will be read with pleasure and profit.
The man with the book of a hun
dred secrets who talked so glibly on
our streets last week came near get
ting into trouble by making a tem
perance lecture. Hereafter when he
comes to Cartersville he will in al!
probability confine himself to the
selling of books.
There seems to be a desire on the |
part of a great many of our people to
send Dr, Felton to the legislature
from this couuty. He would make
a splendid representative, and the
temperance people would have in
him a leader on whom they could de
pend in any emergency.
Rev. A. J. Jarrell, of Gainesville,
has been in town for several days
past superintending the improve
ments being made on his handsome
residence on West Main street. His
place will be, when finished, one of
the most desirable and conveniently
arranged residences in the city.
The sermon of Dr. Ryals at the
Baptist church last Sunday, on the
subject of the Mercer centennial fund,
was one of the finest efforts of his life
and was listened to with marked at
tention by a large and appreciative
audience. Cartersville people never
fail to respond liberally to such a call
as this. t
Services will be held at the Church
of the Ascension, Episcopal, during
the week, as follows: Evening
prayer at 4:30, p. in., every day, and
morning prayer on Friday at 11, a.
jm. Next Sunday being Easter, the
Rt. Rev. Bishop Beckwith will con
j duct the morning service and preach
at 11, a. m.
Miss Marion Bass, accompanied by
Mrs. W. H. Howard, of this city,
left for her home in Charleston iast
Tuesday morning. Miss Marion has
been in Cartersville for almost a year,
and during her stay has made a host
of friends who regret to see her leave.
She is quite a favorite with Carters
ville society.
“A gentleman who is ready to
map out any tour over the conti
nents, ’’requests us to say for the ben
efit of his many friends who are con
tinually asking why he don’t marry,
that he is only waiting for the right
girl to say yes. In other words we
gather from his remarks that “Bar
kis is willing.’’
A few more such demonstrations
as the one on our streets last week, in
which whisky and pistols played a
prominent part, will make friends
for the temperance cause out of all
people who have any self respect or
any respect for law and order. Such
disreputable affairs are mortifying in
the extreme, and bring our town into
disrepute.
Whik) and Pistols.
Last Thursday a book peddler
named Reynolds struck Cartersville.
He hailed from somewhere in the
north and was selling a little twenty
five page pamphlet, of which he
claimed to be the author. He ob
tained permission of the town author
ties to talk publicly on the streets
and sell his book. He proved to be
quite a fluent talker and attracted
considerable crowds around him. He
delivered one of his lectures on Thurs
day evening and again Thursday
night. In the course of his remarks
Thursday night he took occasion to
deliver himself very freely on the
temperance question, and urged upon
his hearers, and especially the boys,
the evils of whisky drinking. Mr.
Bill Puckett, who is a barkeeper in
town, was in the crowd, and made
some remark in a tone that seemed
to give offense to the speaker and he
retorted in a rather sharp language.
Words ran pretty high for a minute
or two,and the crowd became some
what excited. Mr. BobPattiilo, who
is a strong temperance man, took
sides with the stranger and some hot
words ensued between him and Puck
ett. However, order was restored
and no damage was done. Next
morning they were all three before
Mayor Wofford and he fined them
five dollars each. Mr. Pattillo very
promptly paid his own fine and also
that of the book-peddler and temper
auee lecturer. Either this, or some
thing not known, seemed to give
Puckett great offense. He at once
retired to a bar-room and armed
himself with two self-cocking pistols,
and appeared on the streets in regu
lar cowboy style, defying arrest and
warning people to keep their hands
off him. He held a pistol in each
hand, and for a few minutes seemed
to have possession of the sidewalk.
The police were disposed to give him
a wide berth. His friends soon came
up, however, and got him across
town and look his pistols from him.
He was soon after brought before the
mayor, plead guilty, and was sen
tenced to pay a fine of S3O, or work
on the streets for fifty days. He paid
his fine, and expressed great regret
that he had acted so badly. As an
excuse he plead that he wao drunx.
Fortunately for our town such scenes
as this are not often enacted on our
streets. All good citizens deplore
that such a thing should have occur
red. We are informed that Mr.
Puckett is deeply mortified that he,
while under the influence of whisky,
should have acted so rashly. This is
only another argument that whisky
should go. We’ll gladly hail the
day that ushers prohibition into Car
tersville.
Death of Nr. Jesse Swain.
Mr. Jesse Swain died at his resi
dence in Gordon county, on Thurs
day, April 3d, and was buried at the
Oothcaloga graveyard, on Friday
evening, April 4tn. Mr. Swain w'as,
with one or two exceptions, the old
est man in all this section, being at
the time of his death in his eighty
ninth year. He . came to Georgia
about forty-eight years ago, and set
tled in Bartow county. He resided
in this city about two years and then
moved to Gorddh county, where he
lived continually till the time of his
death. He was an earnest member
of the Baptist church for more than
forty years, and was noted for his
honesty, integrity and liberality.
He devoted his'Whole life to agricu’-
tural pursuits, and was a successful
farmer. He was a man to command
the respect and esteem of ell with
whom he came in contact. He was
followed to the grave by a large
number of friends and relatives who
laid him quietly to rest beside his
wife who had preceeded him just
twenty years. He was ready to go,
and died peacefully and quietly,
trusting in God.
Goad News to Farmers.
Bartow Superior court meets on
April 28th, and continues two weeks.
Juries have been summoned for both
weeks, but owing to the great push
of work, many of the farmers of the
couuty have petitioned Judge Fain
to relieve them from jury duty.
They are very far behind with their
work, and just at the time court
meets will be in the greatest rush of
the year with the farming class. In
view of this fact, the couuty commis
sioners acting under the numerous
requests from farmers, have asked
Judge Fain to relieve the juries from
duty altogether at the adjourned teim
Judge Fain has kindly consented to
do this,consequently thej urymen who
have been summoned to attend the
two weeks of April adjourned term
of our Superior court are relieved
from duty and cau go on with their
work. In doing this Judge Fain has
conferred a great favor on our farm
ers. He will oe here himself on the
28th irist., and will hear motions,
certiorari?, etc.
The New Depet.
The plans and sneifications for the
new depot to be built at this place by
the narrow guage road, are already
prepared, and the work will begin in
a comparatively short time. Mr.
Frank Lester has seen the drawing
and says it will be a nobby, conven
iently arranged, and very hanosome
twostory building. It will be locat
ed on the corner of the public square
in front of the St. James hotel and
just across the street from Mr. Aaron
Collins’ residence.
CMBtj Cnnrt.
The County court organized yes
terday morning, Judge G. 8. Tumlin
presiding, with the following jury :
E, Payne, Wm. Everldgr, J. M.
Smith, B. Heath, W. Corbin, D. J.
Guyton, Hugh Tomlinson, Jabez K.
Gilreath, J. W. Sprout!, W. P.
Woodall, John S. Kerr, A. K. Kerr.
The case of the state vs. John
Yarbrough was continued for the
term. The first ease called tor trial
was that of the state v*. Linn Pool,
charged with the offense of carrying
concealed weapons. Verdict, guilty.
There are about five hundred crimi
nal cases on the County court dock
et for trial. Three hundred and
e ghteen of tht se cases are against
parties for illegal voting, and a large
majority of all the cases were trans
ferred from the Superior court. As
far as we can learn, the County court
is giving very general satisfaction,
and will be the raeaus of saving the
county much money by keeping
misdemeanor cases out of the Supe
rior court to a large extent. Very
few of such cases, so far tried, have
been carried to the Superior court.
It is probable that this week will be
largely taken up in the tiial of crim
nal cases. Several cases in which
considerable interest is manifested
are set for trial during this term.
Read ThU.
Section 3049,0f the revised code of
Georgia,reads as follows: “No sheriff
or deputy sheriff of thisstate shall be
required to advertise the property of
any defendant in fi. fa. for sale,until
the cost of such advertisement shall
have been paid by the plaintiff in fl.
fa.,his agent or attorney: Provided
that w’hen any sucli party,plaintiff,or
his agent or attorney for him, shall
make and file an affidavit in writing
that,owingto h is poverty heisunable
to pay such cost, then it shall be the
duty of such sheriff or his deputy to
proceed as now required by law.” By
request of the sheriff, and also for
our own protection, we will for the
future adhere strictly to this rule and
require the advertising fee to be paid
in ad vanee. This will avoid confu
sion and mistakes and.save us much
trouble in trying to collect bills. Attor
neys will please remember hereafter
to have their clients arrange for the
payment of advertising fee when the
levies are sent in to the sheriff.
Printer’s Rollers.
With good rollers, a good press
man will do good work, even with
old type and old presses. With poor
rollers, it is simply impossible for
the best pressman to do good work,
even with the best of type, ink, etc.
One-half of our country newspapers
have a poor appearance simply be
cause the rollers are poor. Parsimo
ny is not economy, and parsimony in
rollers, at the expense of the appear
ance of the work, is poor economy.
It pays to have excellent rollers.
When you w ant good ioliers, or com
position, order from W, S. D. Wikle >
Macon, Ga. We have tried his com
position for several years, and find it
to equal any we have ever used. It
makes a strong, durable roller, with
a good surface and strong suction,
and is not apt to dry out and shrink
as much as others we have tried.
Any kind of stocks furnished, and
rollers cast to order. Don’t forget
the address: W. S. D, Wikle, Ma
con, Ga.
Weather Forecast for April.
Prof. Cather,editor of the Scientific
Educator, Ashville, forecast the
weather for April as follows:
The month will be stormy, extend
ing up to the 10th. The middle of
the month, beginning about the 11th,
shows signs of pretty general disturb
ance. The two other intervals indi
cating general storm features are
from 20th to 24th, and from 27th to
29th.
Continuation of great flood in the
lower Mississippi, and great flood in
the northwest will begin, in fact high
water reports will come from almost
every section; and the present will
be known as the great flood year.
April is an alternate warm month.
We can promise nothing favorable.
The cold vapors of the ice regions are
apt to result In spot storms, and the
coincidence of their descent with the
movement of intensely warm moist
ures from the equator reduce the
probabilities into absolute certainties
The atmosphere is now receiving a
larger amount of moisture from
evaporation from the icefields north
than common. We can only study
effects—predictions about the out
come of the wonderful changes going
on, are not to be regarded as more
than inferential.
The Chtrsktt Railroad Shops.
We hear it rumored that the rail
road shoj s of the Cherokee railroad
are to be moved from Cedartowo,
either to Broken Arrow or to Car
tersville. Our informant knew noth
ing positive, but thought it likely
that they would be moved toCarterfi
ville. We very much hope that this
is true. Such a move would benefit
Cartersville In many ways. The
employees of the road would move
iheir families hereiftheshopsshould
be moved, thus increasing very large
ly our trade and population. We
will look further into this matter and
keep our readers pelted.
SEWING MACHINES."
Every one who de-ires to buy a first-class
sewing machine, should call at Walton's and
look at his lot The New Hume, American,
Royal St. John and Household are sold by him.
He can give satisfaction as to prices.
A Struct fat.
Mr. Gerald Griffin, our active
guano agent, holds a note for fertiliz
ers which has Mr. Chet Bagwell's
name signed to it. The note became
due and Mr. Griffin sent it to Pine
Log, the home of Mr. Bagwell, for
suit in the Jusite cour\ The case
was tried last Saturday, and Mr.
Bagwell swore that he did not sign
the note nor authorize anyone to
sign it for him. Also swore that he
did not get any guano nor did he
know’w ho did get it. Mr. Bagwell
gained the case. The question is,
who got the guano and signed the
note? Mr. Griffin has had so many
transactions of this kind, that he has
no distinct recollection about this
particular on* 1 . The question is,
‘‘Who struct Billy Patterson?” or
words to that eflect.
Thf Hightower Warehouse.
Mr. P. S. Hightower informs us
that he will commence the erection
of his large brick warehouse on the
old car factoiy lot, today. The
building will be oue hundred feet
wide by two hundred feet long and
will be made fire proof. We are
glad that the warehouse is to be
built, and confidently believe that
it will prove a profitable investment.
As the work advances we will have
more to say of it.

“Mid dog! mad dog!” was the cry on our
streets a few days since, and the city fathers
held a meeting and passed an ordinance that
all dogs found on the streets for twenty days

precautionary steps that have beeu taken will
prevent any further danger. Friday was a
