Arnold, who, ißigleton, organized and ob «&i charter for the United |||j§|P|K\dvortising and Manufactur ing Company, have petitioned the superior court for the appointment of a receiver and an order dissolving ' the charter. U Details of Singleton’s scheme, as ■recounted in the petition, are in teresting. The petitioners state that the company was organized in D*mber 1909, and tliat a charter ■v obtained in January following, *he puroose of manufacturing Y selling certain chemical eggs Hreduced prices. each purchase of these eggs customer was given an adver- Hing cabinet which cost the comp- BKv 81. to make. 'l'his cabinet the agreed to place upon his vji raises and allow the company to for advertising ]>urposes. ■ The petition states that Baker Bought and paid for 15 shares of lie stock at 8100.00 per share; Ar Singleton 48 shares at the same ■rice. Singleton was elected presi fflPoit, and given entire control of Hue affairs of the company. He *ixed his salary, state the petition ers, at SIOO.OO per week; named Arnold secretary and treasurer, and fixed his salary at the same. Then the company started busi ness. Chemical eggs were sold in quantities. In the course of events the company opened a branch in Pittsburg, and Singleton went there to take charge. The petitioners say they believe he did a flourishing business, and took in much money; none of which, however, they ever say, they claim. Early in May Singleton telegraph ed that he had closed the Pittsburg branch and opened another in Chic ago. The petitioners say they be lieve he did no such thing, but charge that he absconded. A short time ago bills began to arrive from Pittsburg, states the •■JTtition, which the company is not able to pay. For the reason, it is stated, that ■after Singleton departed the chem- Hcal egg and advertising cabinet ■scheme was investigated by Baker > find Arnold and found, they state, ■0 have been a fake from start to COCHRAN, PULASKI COUNTY, GA., THURSDAY, MAY 2(i, 1910. finish. lamar Hill was appointed receiv er and gave bond in the sum of SSOO. We desire to say in reference to the above statement that Taylor & Kennington sold some of these eggs and in good faith promised to furn ish each purchaser with a medicine cabinet relying on the integrity of these people. However, as it now seems, that it was a fake scheme and the cabinets will not be forth coming they stand ready to reim burse every one who purchafed from them. Last bf Mts. Shin holder’s Recitals. Misses Chapman and Watson Give Pleasing Musical In terpretations. The third and last of Mrs. Shin holser’s recitals was given at Wes leyan College, when Miss Carrie Mae Chapman and Miss Lillian Watson made their appearance as graduates in piano. The program was interesting and well chosen, and each number was well g.ven and heartily encored. Espec’al mention should be made of the brilliant rendering of the : Weber Concerto by Miss Chapman. Her playing all evening showed a splendid technique combined with artistic and poetic conception of her numbers. Miss Watson’s selections were given weth delicacy of expres sion which, rever weak and readily rising to forc’Vnd brilliancy, gave evidence of a musitfal temperment and easy versatility. Both young women have talent which has been carefully developed. The singing of Miss Anna Ruth Childs, soprano (pupil of Miss Bach man,) who assisted the two gradu ates, was enjoyed.—Macon Tele graph. Notice.

The Editor Needs Bread. “It is reported tlmt a fastidious lady in a neighboring town kneads bread with gloves on. This incident may be somewhat peculiar but there are others —The Editor of this paper needs bread with his shoes on; he needs bread with his shirt on; he also needs bread with his pants on; and unless some of his delinquent subscribers pay up before long, he will need bread without a blame thing on and this is no garden of Eden in the wintertime.” Now my friends the above quotation may seem like a joke but when you come to think of it, it takes money to run a newspaper, and several hundred of our subscribers are delin quent ; scores of them will pay when they think of it or upon a simple presentation of their bill and in all probability you are among the num ber, but it is impossible to see every one and we take this liberty of reminding you of the small amount due which means very little to you, but in the aggregate means a great deal to us. We hope to retain you as a friend and subscriber and trust that you will remember to send us tin* small amount flue. A Truthful Ad vertisement.
