Editor Glee&ner ot the Griffin
News, is opportune in calling pub
lic attention to the following fairly
put facts:
“Some democrats fight when they
are candidates for office. Other
democrats go out and hustle for
their party a lew days before the
election. Still oilier democrats
never attempt to aid their party,
but are chronic croakers who sit on
their perch and complain of the
the men who do Iho woik. But the
true and faithtul democratic editor
wears perpetual harness. He nev
er lests. In winter’s storms and
summer's heat, he is found hurling
inirsiles at the enemy and repair
ing the works of the democratic
party/ 11
Miss Ellen Dortch, of the Mil*
ledgeville Chronicle, thinks that
should the people find themselves
disappointed in the democratic
parly’s administration they will
not rehabilitate and put in power
the “third part}*' or populists.
She says:
‘lf the American people were to
be seriously disappointed in a demo
cratic administrat on anew political
party would doubtless be organized,
but it would not be the third party.
It would he a party whose platform
would be so broad and statesman
like that every liberty loving and
patriotic American could endorse it.
Il would not be a party whose chos
en leaders seek to build strength on
prejudice, by arraying class against
class, hut a party whose gospel
would he that ot universal brother
hood.’*
The following resolution was
passed by the Jenkinsburg alliance
last Saturday :
Resolved, That Breti ren A. At
kins n and C. It. Thompson will
address th# people in an open meet
ing Jenkinsburg on Saturday be
fore the fourth Sunday in April at 2
o’clock p. m. All are invited to at

EASTER IN JACKSON.
Easter Sunday was a typic ial one.
Never did the sun seem more golden
and the birds to chirp so Djerily.
It was a mild, calm day and every
one felt as it exclaiming. “Bless
the Lord, Omy soul and forget not
all his benefits?"’
S< rvices were appropriately ob
served at both the Methodist and
Baptist Churches. Rev. G. H.
Gieni. of Atlanta did not preach at
the Methodist as was announced
previously, owing to some uafor
seen hindrance,but none were disa
pointed as Rev. J. H Lakes deligh
ted all by one ol Ins P'os’i elegant
sermons. Tne mellow morning
light shown down upon a beaut if nl
scene. The pulpit stand was
wreathed in pure white easter lillies
with their calyxes of gold nestling
amid lustrous green foliage, tbe
chandlier stands on either side of
the pulpit were specially fragrant
with purple and white wood violets.
Cn the organ in slender Venetian
crystals were double hyacinths,
and purple, and white lilacs. The
music was presided over by Miss
Eya Sassnelt with a full Choir. Jt
was an impressive scene. At the
conclusion of the sermon, the congre
gation knelt around the chancei in
conmemoration while the sweet
strains of an Oratorio was played
softly. It was with a reverant heart
that one intered the beautiful bap
tist Church and gazed upon the
emblems of purity placed there by
loving hands. A table was com
pletely concealed by its wealth of
snowy Easter lilies and trailing
sinilax. From the tail graceful
vases on either side, trailed the
oaintv srnilax and white blossoms
Easter’s own flower. Rev. G LI, Car
ter was at bits best, and preached to
a breathless listening congregation.
Miss Helen Rogers was organist, and
as her little hands swept the keys,
one felt an uplifting of heart and
soul longing for higher and nobler
thoughts.
The choii was consisted of Col.
A. W, Lane Prof. Flasingame,
Bass; Mr, Scott Tenant, Tenor;
Mrs. A. \V. Lane and Miss Helen
Rogers, Soprano; Mrs. T. M. Fur

Doxology Praise God from
whom all blessings Flow,
Offertory, Melody by Rubenstein,
I know that my redeemer liyeth.
Hymns, Uxbridge, Rockingham,

W ith happy hearts and beaming
faces all seemed to enter fully into
the bright joyous easter day, the
day which witnessed the glorious
Resurrection of ou; dear Saviour.

OPENING DAYS.
Beginning on Wednesday and con
tinuing till today the leading dry
goods and milinery stores of Jackson
made the grand
dest display that have ever been seen
in this section. The day dawned
most beautifully and spring days in
their efu’gencc spread over the land.
A lepresentativc of Toe Argus took
the rounds and for several hours lit
erally “drank in" the many beauties.
Theie were so many lare pieces ol
spring goods, and millinery in so
great profession that it would require
our entire space to give it anything
like a full description aud we leave
to two of our fair consribators the
task ot telling the exquisite granduer
at these great days of our beloved
city.
THE THE NEW YORK STORE,
The inaugaration of our President
could hardly have been a more notable
event to the people in Washington than is
the grand opening at the New York Store
to the people of Jackson and the surround
ing country. Early on the morning of
the sth. throngs of people could be seeD
wending their way to the scene of this ex
hibition of taste and elegance.
Joining the crowd, we paused with them
to notice the artistic displays in the win
dows. The windo v of the millinery de
partment is a veritable bower of beauty,
fre3h from the magic touch of the elegant
milliner, Mrs. Thurman whose taste is un
questionable. A back ground of soft
filmy lace serves to ehance the beauty
of a basket of flowers suspended from the
top, as fresh as spring-like as if just
plucked from the woods.
There are hats m this window made of
flowers so perfectly natural looking that
one can almost inhale theirj fragrance
through the heavy plate glass, then the
coolest, sweetest looking little hats for the
children. Nothing is lacking from the
window that taste and elegance can
suggest.
Passing to the next window, two elegant
dresses, ready made greet our eyes, one,
a delicate heliotrope with velvet trimming
aud pearl passamentene. The velvet
jacket is fastened with a rhine stone snd
pearl buckle to match the passamenteiie,
there are big puffed sleeves of the latest
style, and the sxirt with its three ruffle* is
stiffened with crinoline. The goods is
soft and elegant. Accompanying this
suit are gloves aud fan of the same deli
cate shade, and daintiest, prettiest little
hat with violets glistening with dew,
of lips and ribbon which harmonize and
complete the suit. The other costume is
of a greenish gray, anew shade with a
small stripe of old-rose and yel.ow, an im
ported French pattern. This is trimmed
with velvet of the shade of goods, and a
zuave jacket entirely of beads, m which
the coiors green, purple and yellow
predorninate t brightens the costume. A
broad Empire belt encircles the waist and
the Y shaped neck is filled with old rose
chiffon. The sleeves are formed of two
big puffs from the elbow aud the skirt is
ruffled. The making of these suits re
flects credit upon Miss,Strange dressmaker
at The Ladies Store, as the costumes
reflect credit upon the New York Stoia.
Then, there is a beautiful hat of old rose
and green combination to match this suit
and a fan of delicate rose gauze. These
ready made costumes are quite an inno
vation for Jackson and show the push
and energy of this wonderful firm which
will not be behind in anything, but will
keep up with the times.
The next window contains a snowy
arch made entirely of handkerchiefs, with
a back-ground of richest embroideries.
Under this arch of handkerchiefs of every
description, lace, embroidered, plain,
hemstitched, is, an evening dres3 of rich
cream bengaline, and nearest the street is
a row of most beautiful slippers in every
imaginable shape and elegant quality from
the Ci.nderilla size to the substantial un
derstanding size, and popular, goodmat
ured Mr, Tenant stands behind his coun
ter ready to fit each customer regard
less as to what class her slipper will b e
long.
On entering the door, we see beautiful
dresses with trimmings to match, draped
upon a counter and in the center of the
department rises a pyramid of pui e linen
towels, embroiderie, white goods, fron.
the folds of which peep out clusters of
d.aises and green leaves. In the anange
ment of this is apparent the skill of Miss
Anna Snell, of the most efficient in her
line. The artistic arrangement of the
fans can be attributed to the taste of Mr.
Harold Higgins and many of the other
decorations are the results of his touch.
Never before have such dress goods been
seen in Jackson. It is said that man
wants but little here below but just let
him enter the display of .Messrs E. S.
Wynn and R. N. Etheridge and his wants
are multiplied ten-fold as he looks upon
the vast supply of clothing of every
shade, form size, and description, the
spotless linen, the beautiful ties, nob
by straw hats, umbrellas, in fact
everything a man cau possibly wear
or carry aud all displayed to such an
advantage, that he covets fha whole
display and can only satisfy his van
ity by buying anew outfit and sur
veying his transformed self in the long
mirror which adorns this depart
ment.
In all the decorations Mr. Car
michael and Mr. Robiusou lent valua
ble assistance and suggested many ol
the elegant arrngements ot goods and
these gentleman with genial hospit
ality are the first to welcome the visi
tor and show him through eacu de
partment The interior of the mil
linery parlors looks like aminature
palace in which preside the princess’s
Mrs. Thurman, Miss Gibbs and Miss
Uaimichael. Surrounded on every
side with flowers, the gauzy drape ties
looped w ith bunches of rose-, so true
to nature that we fear lest they should
shatter and fall at our feet, and every
where the most beautiful. The rear
portion is the nicest, cosiest little par
lor. The lace curtains are decora
ted with the natural ivy and beau
tiful flowers, the easel holding a large
picture, a boating scene, and on a
marble topped table in this reception
room, are a silver water service, and
two deep vaees of exquisite double
hyacinths, t tie natural flower in
shades of cream pink, deep salmon
ami purple exhaling rare pufume
over the room Here also is the full
length mirrow aud from day to day
this parlor is crowded with all the
; adies of our fair little city trying
hats and exhausting all the vocabu
lary ot adjectives in expressions of ad-
miration as each different “chapeau 5 ’
isadjusied at the right angel upon
their heads. Here w r e find hats, dainty
creations of ribbons and lace flowers
and lips and such as may be seen on
Fifth Avenue and Broadway in New
York. They have the style of inpor
ted French hats and the coiors and
combinations all illustrated the ab
ility of the milliner, and with such
assistance as Misses Carmichael and
Gibbs bow could this disj lay tail to
be a glorious success?
The arrangement of the ribbons is
certainly artistic—ribbons of differ
ent lengths form and arch across the
room, the cross eon f rast i ng bea u t ifu lly
and across tins in gilt letters the
words ‘•Opening Day/"
Going from one dcpaimetit to an
other, sneaking p.easant word- of
welcome too the vi.-iioi Mr. Kiank
Ethrid ge is ever dispensug his good
humor and keeping things lovely. Mr.
A. II Smith, too, with his 1 eariy sin
cere hand-shake, each aud every eal
lei feels perfectly at home.

Thursday, Friday and uu Friday

THE PEERLESS STAR,
Wednesday April sth witnessed the
grand Spring Opening of the star
Store, which stands peerless in the
bright galaxy of the mcicantile world.
The feminine portion of Jackson have
been literally on the qui vive since
the announcement of the Opening at
the far-famed Star Store. Wednesday,
Thursday and Friday have been devo.
ed especially to the Opening, and the
weather, in anticipation ot this happy'
event, seemedfto smiic its brightest,
the days have Jaeen simply ideal ones.
The ladies have been rather unmer
cifully teased for their admiration of
dress, style and dear love of new
“spring bonnets."’ I am reminded
here however of the ever gallant 11.
W. Grady: it is this: “Nothing is so
charming and so feminine in woman
as the passion for dress.
Upon entering this magnifficeut
palace store we are met by the courte
ous salesman, Mr. Charles Smith,
whose genial, smiling face rivals the
golden sunbeams gaining entrance
through the portals ot the broad door
ways. It is bis delight to show the
ladies through, and in his inimitable
manner toil of the shades that best
harmonize and most effectively com
bine. He is conversant with all the
latest ‘‘fads” aud imparts the informa
tion in such a calm superior way.
The show windows are* ‘’things of
beauty,’’ and to purchase some of their
contents will indisputably be a “joy
forever.” Asa foundation the softest,
richest black velvet is laid in gracefully
folds, with here aud there a sprinkling
of clusters of the crimson Jacquen
not roses as a bright bit of coloring.
Above this as pure as the Edelweiss,
famed in song and story of
Itily’s snowy mountains, is a
large white hat, around the brim is
a frilling of softest lace, snowy hyacin
ths scattered here and there among the
lustrous bows of satiny ribbon com
plete a hat worthy to adorn the most
patriician face.
It is pleasant indeed to be greeted
oy the affable manner and cordial
hand-clasp of Mr. R. L. Daughtiy.
When gazing upon all the beautiful
goods, one feels intuitively that he is
the great motive power and that
through his faultless taste, all have
been transported from the great Eas
tern market and some from the Par
isian Emporiums. Then Miss Fan
nie Pope, one of the most populai
little ladies here, displayed to us some
of the fiuest of dress goods. There is
one costume of pearl white Henrietta
with the richest maroou velvet for
trimmings. It is something entirely
new, Fv r this i> a pair of maroon slip
pers aud a maroon ha% tiimnud with
bows of velvet and white ostrich tips.
Another of burnt rose, crepone,
trimmed with the latest of new shades
burnt rose stripped silk This is a‘‘per
fect love” of a dress and all the
“brune” girls are looking enviously at
it, when by its side is the very dress for
aradiaut blonde maiden, a Nile groeu
with trimmings of light colored
peach tints. The very hat for this is a
Nile green allatlroop with dainty pink
cyclamens. Il£re arc the crinkled
challies, vividly alive with flower,
birds,bees, butterflies, vines mando
lin-:, ;md all tlie pretiest fancies of an
artistic mind Above us are draped
around a circle of the richest silks of,
the Orient. Here is the canary silk,
soft and sheer enough for the most
lithesome figure and as beautiful as a
spray of yellow acacia bloom. This can
be elaborately adorned with black
lace, or the sof test yellow, which looks
more like a mesh of golden sunbeam.
We glanced around and
from behind a crystal
stand of multi-colored chrysanthe
mums, ail white, pink, gold. We no
ticed the face of charming Miss Fanie
Bradr, ana at once she began to direct
our eyes to something we had before
unobserved : tans, the daintiest and
sweetest” we had known, in all of
the most fascinatingly delicate tint 1 ,
azure.gray, pink, daffodil, yellow',and
the daintiest of cream and white*.
A favorite garnituring of the t'ainty
mulls,crepomies, and French challies,
is tin- favorite flower of the moment.
Violets. One almost itnmagines the
faint aroma distilled by this modest
flowor of indescribable delicacy.
A parasol tor a costume is of pure
white is of white silk elaborately
frilled with crepe dech ine. All the
maidens were enchanted and it is as
sured this beautiful affair willnotlong
linger for exhibition. Now the dear
little infants must not pass
wholly unnoticed. Baby caps
in every conceivable
shape, and every loud mother could
find here something in he shape of a
cap especially adapted to her young
hooeful’s peculiar style of beauty.
And now we pause! Iu a curtained
recess, where the creamy filmy lace
draperies seperated, we are welcomed
cordially by the fair haired gracious
Miss Eva Spencer, a distingue little
lady just from Baltimore. This alcove
where she reigns queen, is very attrac
tive to me. A bright neatness pervades
it, and a general atmosphere of comfcrt
throughout seemed an invitation and a
welcome. Over us the blue dome cast a
cool, soft tinted light. On this were flow
ers of every discretion, wall flowers,
orchids, tulips, roses, ciocuses, jonquils,
violets, pinks, until we e’n almost felt
as if we walked in a garden of spring
posies. A beveled mirror draped with
rainbow ribbons was one of the prettiest
adornments. Around itsbase w ere clus
ters of the Easter lilies with their hearts
of gold the lace draperies were looped
with the occupant’s own favorite pal
sies. ‘There’s pansies that’s foi thoughts.’
One of the prettiest of children bats was
one of cream trimmed in the sweetest
simplicity, the French bows and knots
giving it the latest and most fashionable
apperanee. Another hat was of richest
lace lined with purple forget-me-nots
and held together with silver cords, over
it laid carelessly was a full blown pink
rose. There is a leghorn crownless,
trimmed with large bows of yellow satin
ribbon and lace. One of the most sty
lish hat to be seen was a gray, with
trimmings of heliotrope and green, a
combination entirely new. A burnt rose
trimmed with the late twisted loops,
was another that elicited many compli
ments; toy hats that are really nothing
but a handful of bright flow'ers are to be
worn, where two or three fl ivvers will
go to make up a crown, they’re to be
covered under a puff of gause. The
twisted loops, French bows and knots
evince quite latest “fad” in the milinery
world, and the combination of burnt
rose, ni’.e-green, gray and heliotrope
and violet are a revelation in the har
mony ot colors, Cream with buttercups
and vulets is another unique trimming.
The characteristic simplicity is one of
the chief att-ations of the new spring
hats and all true refinement and culture
effect elegant simplicity.
1 could wander on and on through
endless labyrinths of the descriptive of
the dainty, gauze handkerchrefs, lace
and cambric affairs that go to comolete
a stylish outfit, the shoes to match each
and every gown, the decorative flutter
ing ribbons of every shale and hue.
the percales, the combination of ver
dant gree i and tan. But time and
space forbid the enumeration of all
the lovely displays. Better “come one,
come all” and see for yourselves
Suffice it to say these beautiful decora
tio sand groupings of lovely things
emanated from efficient hands and
thoroughly artistic natures.
We could, perforce, exhaust the whole
vocabulary of adjectives and iuterjec
tious over the Star Store’s mammoth
display on opening aay. We feel as if
just returned from an enchanted
realm. L. L.
We have all the latest novel

PROM THE CABIN NEAR TOWN
Mr. Editor: It is curious to
watch the frequenters to the Car
michael Co's store, The greater
part ol them are made up of the
best man in good old Butts as well
as adjoining counties. Some of
these people are dailv habitudes of
the town year in and year out.
They are recieved with the utmost
kindness and prices to suit the
times. A man’s .1 anners are his
fortune, is a saying as true as it is
old, as valuable as it is true.
Many commodities are exehan*-
geaable, and money is the pivot on
which they turn. This is not lees
true ol good manners than it is of
the theories of the political econo
mist. The name gentleman indi
cates one who is gentlemied, even
tempered some are horn so, and
will natorally exercise these quali
ties in having to do with their feh
lows To attempt to describe the
gentlemanly qualities of each would
consume time unnecessary suffi
cient to say all fnm the cashier to
chief book-keeper are polite, atten
tive and kind hearted.
In company with Mr. J R. King,
one of Prof. McMillan’s genial faced
students, we attended the Literary
and social club at Cedar Rojk last
Friday night, it being the an diver
sary of the orgaoiz ition. and after
carefully inspecting the fi >Wer dee
oiatiuns, we seated ourselves, and
meditated upon the fact that wo
the great est gift ol God to man
and then to think of poor man, and
what he is, we will contrast the two,
man is but a reed, the frailest ir.-
nature ; but he is a reed that thinks.
It needs not that the whole universe
should own itself to arrest him, a
vapor a drop of water, will suffice to
destroy him. But should the uni
verse crust him, man would yet be
nobler than that which and. strove
him for he knowing that he dies;
while of the advantage which the
universe has over him, the universe
knows nothing.
