picnic to be given by the Fort Gaines
Guards on July 4 will he followed by
a ball at night, which is objected to by
many of the ladies who have promised
assistance in providing dinner. The
Guards request us to say that the
report is unauthorized by them, and
that they are making no arrangement
whatever for a ball. Quite a large
crowd of visitors are expected to attend
the picnic, and the hoys are making
due preparations. Besides a bountiful
dinner, a military drill, a game of base
ball and other attractions will be pro¬
vided for the amusement of the crowd.
All necessary committees have been
appointed and nothing will be left
undone to make the occasion a delight¬
ful success.

order for ten car loads of Fort Gaines

choice, which was made aft er a careful
examination of samples from several
other manufacturers. The yards at this
place are among the best and most com¬

clay used cannot be surpassed. The
demand for the brick is steadily grow¬
ing, and they arc being manufactured
at the rate of 100,000 per week.

We took a stroll down to the oil mill

progressing as rapidly as forty or fifty
stirring hands can push it. The build

ones, and there will be four instead of
three—a seed house, an oil mill, a gin¬
nery and a guano house. The capaci¬
ty of the new plant will be about fifty
per cent greater than that of the one
which was burned, and the machinery
will all be of the latest improved. The
buildings will all be of brick through¬
out and will be almost fire-proof. One
of the many improvements which will
be made will be the electric lights,
which will be an additional safeguard
against fire, as w'ell as a less expensive
arrangement for illumination, The
