any distance, and are experienced
and careful drivers.
Visitors desiring to place their
valuables and money in safe de
posit, receiving most courteous
treatment, should visit W. 11. Do
zier’s bank at Flovilla.
An up-to-date grocery store at
Flovilla is owned by J. I’earce
Smith, who is engineer on the
dummy, and also owner and man
ager of the stand at the depot at
Indian Spring, where delicious
drinks and fresh fancy groceries
are always kept.
To the right of "the depot at In
dian Spring is the New Hotel El
der, a popular hotel, open all the
year. This is under the manage
ment of Mrs. Cornell, and she has,
this spring, had the large building
entirely done over, and it is beau
tifully white and clean. Therooms
are all on the outside, and the Ho
sel Elder entertains annually a vast
number of guests and pleasure and
health-seekers, and is amply able
to comfortably house all comers.
In front and across the car line
from Hotel Elder is the Calumet,
under new management this season
and for all the Mrs. W. G.
Riley, of Macon, is the manager,
and her place can justly claim the
attention of the traveler and tour
ist. Her rooms and grounds have
been thoroughly renovated and put
in the best condition. The ideal
location of the house appeals to
the traveler, and no more home
like aud delightful place could be
found by the rest or pleasure-seeker
to spend a vacation.

to the spring, one is charmed with
the wonderful natural scenery—the
wide creek, the water falling over
the rocks near the old mill, the
beautiful trees, walks and drives.
Crossing over on the neat board
walk, the first building is the Ca
sino, with the bowling alley, wide
pavilion and swimming pool. Here
sport reigns supreme,—a place to
rest, enjoy lunches, bowl or swim,
and here, too, the visitors spend
most of their time.
So much to see and do and so
many points of interest—some his
toric, others truly modern, the Ca
sino is always the starting point.
The managers, Messrs. Dolvin &
Brownlee, are unusually pleasant
and obliging, and the best cold
drinks are served from their fount.
The famous and remarkable col
lection of Indian relics and cuiios
collected by Chief Eagle Eye dur
ing his forty-five years’ association
with different tribes of the Ameri- j
can Indians will occupy space in
the right of the bowling alley, and |
is well worth the small price of
admission. Every boy and girl in
the county should see this wonder
ful array of curios,'some more than
200 years old. j
The Wigwam, perhaps, needs no
introduction, as it is very exten
sively advertised with a chain of
other large hotels owned by Mr.
Levi Scoville.
It is situated on one of the high
est points of Indian Spring, and
at the foot of a winding set of steps
is the wonderful spring itself, that
flows now as it did hundreds of
years ago, never losing time, but
giving to those who drink an even
flow of its health-giving water.
The Wigwam is managed by
Sherwood Thaxton, a Butts county
boy, who has superintended exten
sive improvements that have kept
many workmen busy for several
months. He expects to be doing
a capacity business before the
ipontli is out. This hotel is famous
for its beautiful wide porches, spa
cious ball room and halls, cool
rooms, that are all on the outside.
The staff is composed of expe
rienced men in their various posi
tions, each capable of rendering
expert service.
The food is excellent, and a
more modernly equipped hotel is
not known. A special orchestra
has been engaged, and the highest
possible talent for the entertain
ment of the guests at the concerts
lias been employed for the summer.
It has been open since May 20th..
To the left of the Wigwam,
across the creek, is the Foy Hotel,
managed by another Butts coutify
boy, R. Troup Smith, who believes
in strict attention to the demands
of his business and the careful
looking afteiV erf his ttftde. He
most successfully handled a large:
number of guealp last season, and
is prepared this season for even a
larger number. He predicts that
the hotel will attract a volume of
business. Guests have been in the
house for several weeks. They
have easy access to the spring and
everything for comfort, health and
pastime is fodnd here.
Going up the hill, attention is
attracted to anew glass-front store.
This is owned by L. D. Hoard,
whose stock of groceries, cigars
and candies is fresh and of the best
quality. After a walk about
part of Indian Spring, visitors will
be glad to stop here and enjoy a

cool drink or a plate of home-made:
ice cream.
1 Another store in this part of the
town that can boast of a well
selected stock of general merchan
dise is G. W. Watkins & Son.
Here can be found fresh groceries,
an up-to-date line of dry goods,'
clothing, hats and shoes, attractive
pieces of furpiture, a wonderful
array of notions; and, in fact, they
seldom fail to fill an order for any
article or give entire satisfaction.
Miss Mary Wright has a pleas
ant, restful place further up the
hill, where she keeps hats, notions
and other articles dear to feminine
hearts.
The Arnold Ilonse, a private
boarding place, is situated along
one of the most beautiful knolls
around Idian Spring, with a view
of the many groves and other places
of interest which is Unsurpassed.
Here is found a summer home,
clear, pure drinking water, (Jeli
cious Southern cooking and cheer
ful and cool rooms.
Indian Spring is really a won
derful place, and is fast gaining
favor as a summer resort.
Take it from any point. Indian
Spring is a magnet which draws
the wanderers to her gates in the
summer time, and the season thisr
vear bids fair to be the best in its
history.
