Notes (lathered Here and There by Our Eeporters. Lent! Fence in the park. We atop the press to—rest. Yesterday was Ash Wednesday. Only two or three vacant store houses. The population of our city U increas ing. Now is the time to lay in your spring stock. Eggs in abundance at ten cents per dozen.* / Wet day yesterday after several spring like days. The boys are talking about having an other party. The small grain crops hereabouts are doing well. We will soon be ready to tell old win ter good-bye. Services at Ascension church yesterdayV by Rev. Mr. Ree^, Why don’t cord wood subscribers bring in their wood ? Fine yellow- country butter goes at fif-i teen cents per pound. And still Cartersville is booming ahead of her sister cities. What has become of the Constitution's ‘•society column?” Sugar saturated in kerosene is said to be good for hoarseness. Read the bargain store’s advertisments in this morning’s paper. Cartersville can brag of less street ers than any other town in the state. A Mr. C. 11. Erwin will open a skating, ring at Puckett’s hall in a day or two. ? Bargains are going oft' rapidly at the “Bargain Store. So much for judicious advertising. “Nemo” says Capt. Lyon made a fine impression at the state agricultural con vention last week. Mrs. John 11. Wikle has been quite ills for several days. We are glad to learn 1 she is improving. Brother Cunningham has winged his way to Hot Springs, where he will rey main a fortnight. “More Anon” has a sensible article in this issue of our paper in regard to the best interests of Cartersville. If our city fathers don’t walk the chalk line between now and the next election, they ’ll have to give way to our city moth ers. We are back at our post again, after the delightful little sickness of four weeks, but not quite well enough posted to get up much of a local page. The papers are already beginning to talk up the next press convention. Car tersville will be prepared to give them a right royal welcome.— Atlanta Constitu tion. We would like to see one of the new Georgia lour per cent, bonds. They are said to be beautiful.. But we will never see one unless some bloated friend shows it to us. “Nemo” will have his dry and pictur esque way of having fun of the most se rious and important matters.- Read his report of the agricultural meeting at Hawkinsville last week. We constantly hear oar people com plaining of too much court. If there is any further extension of the rent in the Impinging portion of our trowsers, we certainly can’t grumble at having too much. The most agreeable party of the season came off at the hospitable home of MajA Milner’s on last Friday night. All thd young folks present seemed to enjoy themselves immensely. The editor of the Darien Gazette will attend the press convention for the pur pose of discovering the author and owner of the fossiliferous tooth which was drop ped upon the Tallulah mountain. — Atlan ta Constitution. Capt. T. J. Lyon, who was appointed a delegate from this congressional dis trict by the state agricultural society lastl week to attend the national agricultural congress, which assembled at NashvilL on Tuesday, left Monday morning for that city. A nice white fehce around onr young park in front of the St. James would be a great improvement to the looks of our) village. We learn that a gentleman ha proposed to do it for nothing if he will be so allowed, and our city council ought not to object. A yonng friend, writing from Mebane ville, N. C., says of The Free Press : “It has become quite a favorite with my friends, too. They represent a very wide area; and I often hear them say that the Cartersville Free Press is, on the whole, the best country journal of which they have any knowledge.” Cartersville wants street lamps. The boys want something to hug on their way home.— Atlanta Phonograph. Mistaken. The Cartersville boy is too much of a “bold, bad man” to suffer agonies for the want of something to hug. They are generally estimated as “chain lightning.” Ira Fort, conductor, accompanies the accommodation train from here to Atlan ta every morning. He is one of the clev erest men that ever pulled a bell-rope, and to be chaperoned to Atlanta by the boy is a supreme delight to the ladies. Fact is, they can’t make a cleverer man than Ira. While the “old-man-on-the-othei-side” was munching his toothsome valentine last week, we were poring over the one we got, with a red hot fever running through us at the rate of 1,500 miles a minute. We only got the single one and we hope the sender may read this and hear us say that any person who would send such a diabolical thing to a sick man is mean enough to throw rocks at a grave yard, and that we hope the person will catch tbe measles in twenty-four hours.

Kingston Kindlings. Spring has began to dress herself in her suit of green. There is a small acreage of wheat sown in this section. The few warm days we have had is bringing forth the wheat. Farmers are very late preparing for the coming crop, but I suppose it is largely due to the exceedingly bad winter. Messrs. Oglesby have erected a gin factory on the creek near Mr. 11. S. Crawford’s, one mile from town. They ,are good workmen and have fine ma chinery. Capt. J. M. Davidson, the favorite de pot agent of the W. and A. railroad, in forms me there has been more freight delivered from this tlepof this spring than there lias been since he has been here. He says it is because so many far mers are buying corn. Our city fathers are making the citi zens walk very circumspectly. They recently had arraigned two of our oldest citizens before them, which was quite a joke on one of our landlords. He repre , sented himself to a “peep-show” man as the mayor of our city, for which he was fined $2.85. Mr. C. Miller's little boy, about six or seven years old, was driving a mule near the railroad the other day when the cars came along and frightened the mule and vthrew the boy, cutting* a gash near the temple laying bare the skull. Dr. W. 11. Kinnbrew dressed the wound, and now reports him as doing very well. Vale. Adairsville News. We have had some pleasant days for the past week. Our town marshal is making a great improvement in our streets and side walks. What has become of cousin Peter Pi per, Mrs. Piper and all the little Pipers ? Would like to hear from them. Our hotel is successfully kept by Mr. J. C. Martin aqd his lady, who know" how to make the weary traveler feel at home. Mr. Frank Hollis and Miss Callie Rob erts were married by ’Squire J. L. Gash,"" all of this place, on last Sabbath. Xo cards. Mr. J. T. Smith and wife leave us this week for Warrenton. They have our* best wishes, and we commend them to the friends that await them at their new home. It is almost useless to refer to our flour ing mill, for it has mi enviable reputa tion, but let us say, if you want nice flour, send your orders to J. M. Veaeh & Cos. Mr. Editor, it is about time you were making a trip to our city in behalf of your interesting paper. When you come, call on Our German friends are still improving their lot, and are doing a good business, regardless of the fact that there are three other shops iu active operatiou in this place. P. New Advertisements. Attention is directed to the sheriffs sales of Bartow for April.' Dick Ley all, of Alanta, has a card in this paper. His liquors, wines, etc., are of the best brands. See his card. 11. M. Mounteastle & Cos. have quite a number of special locals this week, to which we call the attention of the public. R. W. Satterfield gives notice that he has just received a large lot of the finest and best made shoes. They are of the celebrated Zieglers Philadelphia hand make. One of the neatest and most popular bar-rooms in Atlanta is offered for sale. It is centrally located on the greatest thoroughfare of the city, opposite the Na tional hotel. A bargain*can be had. “The Bargain Store,” one of the livest establishments in Cherokee Georgia, has numerous advertisements of the good things of life for sale therein. This store has already become deservedly popular. The law card of Trippe & Xeel appears in our paper. They are tw o of our most energetic and reliable attorneys whom we recommend to all desiring legal services. The senior is judge of our county court. A. Knight, grain and produce dealer, advertises thirty thousand pounds of the finest brand of flour ever brought to this market, bought before the recent rise in that article and will be sold according ly. Mr. T. F. Gouldsmith comes to the front with the announcement that his old establishment keeps a good stock of furniture, burial cases, coffins and robes. He also keeps an elegant hearse. Give him a call. J. C. & S. F. Milam announce them selves as commission merchants, cotton buyers and dealers in guanos. Also agents for the sale ot steam engines, saw and grist mills, threshers and all kinds of machinery from the best works. Parties wishing bargains had better call on them. —— ♦ I)r. Robertson’s New Field. We learn from private and reliable resources that Dr. Robertson bids fair to rapidly rise to prominence and distinc tion in his new home in Atlanta. This is exceedi ugly gratifying to all who ever even casually met the gentleman, because to hear the briefest expression of his beautiful and sensible theories but creates admiration for the man. May he, who himself is a most magnificent illustration ot the unrivalled excellence of his school live to a ripe old age to do good among his fellow man. We copy the following from the Atlanta Gazette: For some year or two observant Atlan ta. people have heard reports of wonder ful cures being effected by a water-cure establishment near Cartersville, Ga., managed by Dr. C. O. Robertson. While the establishment was modest, it was certainly conducted upon the soundest of principle, and by competent physicians. M r eek after w eek it turned out cases that had been considered hopeless, these cases being of the most respectable classes, and the process of the cure having been watched at every stage, and reported upon by unimpeachable witnesses. At length the fame of this institute so spread, and the patronage so increased that it was deemed best to remove it from its charm ing but inaccessible home at Rowland Springs and bring it to Atlanta, where the world could get its benefits. There is no more fatal mistake made than in the lavish and constant use of drugs and nostrums. By a treatment under the old methods a patient risks ruin as much as he courts cure. Under the hygienic treatment, which is alto gether used by Dr. Robertson, and it is utterly impossible for it to prove injuri ous, we believe earnestly that the estab lishment of this model hygienic institu tion here, w ith its bright record, if? able management, and its long experience, will effect a revolution in the treatment of chronic diseases. That the world w ill be much healthier by tire change cannot be doubted by those who have ever given the subject any study. We shall have more to sav on this subject in the future. To tlie Public. An observer looking over the condition of things in Cartersville, would beg eave to make a few timely remarks. Why is it that some of our people are ignoring some of our oldest and best business men, and are bestowing their trade upon those Who are much less iden tified with the town, and in many in stances building up other towns and places through these men to the injury of our own ? Why are there in our midst those who feel no interest in the growth and prosperity of our own manufactories, but who are ready in many ways to in jure them by making disparaging and in sinuating remarks about their products? Who that has observation can fail to see that all such people are .enemies to the town. Every one can see that our inter ests are mutual. What builds up one helps all; what prejudiees.one prejudices all. We are one in spite of all our strife? jLet us learn better, and then we have hope that Cartersville will do something. We have no patience with but supreme contempt for that man or people who can detract from or rob his fellow-man of his justly acquired reputation. More Anon. S— - Death of Mr. L. K. Kamsaur. * , This worthy man died at his home at Fairmount, Gordon county, on. Sunday last, the 23d inst. He was born in Lin coln edunty, X. C., in 1817, moved with Jiis father to Gordon county, then a por tion of Cass, in 1837, and resided at the same plate till his death. He was a man of great moral worth and integrity, re spected and honored by all who knew .him, and above all a highly Christian gentleman. lie was buried on the 25th at the family grave-yard at his home by his neighbors', and a larger funeral pro cession of heartfelt mourners was never known in Gordon county. Thus has passed away another good man. Peace to his ashes. Off for California. Mr. Alfred Auerbach, who has been in business with his brother Charles at thff Xew York store in this place for several months, left yesterday afternoon on his return to San Francisco, where he w ill resume his old business, that of fringe weaving at a handsome salary. Our young fi iend made many friends while here, who regret his departure but w ish him success. He will be succeeded here by 3lr. Fred Cohen, of St. Louis, who ar rived ou Tuesday, Magical. We thought the town would escape but a blind fiddler has sang *‘My Grandfath er's Clock” on the streets. There are enough singers in the town to produce an operatic and contata. Why don't somelnxly bulge out? 11. M. Mounteastle & Cos. have just re ceived 500 pieces of sheet music. There’s uo use now in sending aff after your mel ody. Without the least provocation and meaning every word we say, the Carters ville brass band is one of the finest in the state. They have no reed instruments, but their full set of horns are performed upon in the most scientific manner. Prof. James, the teacher, is a musician, who has proved his excellence by the way in which he has brought the band out of the kinks. Oscar Ilackett, organist, bass drum man of the brass band, and double bass player in the string band, has departed for Indiana. The boys hated to give him up. Tom Head now blows the bass drum in the brass band and Jim Mount- Castle has harnessed himself to the bass fiddle. The advertising agent of the Swedish Lady Vocal Quartette is looked for every day. This will be a grand musical event for Cartersville. Notwithstanding we have a great deal of music in Cartersville, teachers of that science don’t seem to get opulent very fast. M r e suggest open air concerts by' the brass band from the stand in front of the St. James once a week. It would be a free tiling and we know the Cartersville folks would patronize it. “Baby Mine” hasn’t seized the Car tersville musicians yet. We want to hear Albert Scheur sing in public, and if somebody don’t bring him oufcsoon, we’ll organize an opera compa ny of our own and hire him. The quadrille band is steadily progress ing. Their music is excellent and very tempting to the heels. A Bartow Boy. A Dalton correspondent of the LaFay ette Messenger has this to say in regard to a young man well known in this coun ty: “Rev. XV. C. Luther, formerly of Bartow, is the pastor of the first Baptist churcn in Dalton, (Rev. R. T. Hanks having resigned and gone to Albany, Ga.). W. C. Luther is onl}’- nineteen years old, and is said to be the most youthful pastor in the state in charge of a city church. Yet he preaches with ability and power. He is a fine reasoner, a sound theologian an eloquent and for cible speaker.” Religious Services at Cass Station. The good people of Cass Station have secured Rev. J. T. Norris to preach hem on the second Sunday in each month at Wofford Academy. Mr. Nor ris is a good man and an excellent preacher. For Sale. We have for sale two pianoes, an or gan and three sewing machines which can be purchased on good terms. The goods will be ordered from the factories when sale is made. tf. Pocket-Book Lost. It was in the town of 8., and Mr. S. had just concluded some purchases, when he made the startling discovery that his pocket-book was lost. While searching his pockets he found a buckeye and said, “gentlemen, my pocketrbook is lost, but there has been something dis covered by Dr. Tabler, of Nashville, of far greater value. It is the Buckeye File Ointment, which will cure Files in all cases, when used according to directions. Try it. Price 50 cents a bottle. For sale by D. W. Curry.
