RUMOR WAS EXAGGERATED.
Mayor Strange Has Ordered No Cases
Made Against Winder Citizens.
Wednesday afternoon the atten
tion of tin* editor was called to a
rumor that certain citizens had not
oU*yed the proclamation of the
mayor in reference to clearing away
of the weeds and rubbish from their
lots and Mr. Strange was warm un
der the collar. When seen the mayor
told us to thank those who had so
willingly complied with the mpiest
of the city council and call the at
tention of others, who may have
been cut of the city or from other
cause may not have known of the
order, to the matter.
True the mayor was warm but
in the Uist of humor. He and his
large force of clerks were busily en
gaged in marking up the largest
line of merchandise ever shipped to
Winder. Mr. A. I). McCurry, the
export buyer who accompanied Mr.
Strange to New York, to assist in
the selection of the fall stock, had
just hammered open a box contain
ing twelve hundred hoys’ caps, and
tin: shelves and counters weie piled
to overflowing with every conceiv
able article from waists at
820 to babies’ shoes at 20c., and
still there was an alley full of boxes
yet to he opened. If you wish to
sec an up-to-date line of goods —
either quantity or quality, go to
