Brunswick, Ga., Sept, an, 1899.—1 t appearing to the Court from pe titions presented, signed by the citizens of the county of Coffee, and from informa tion obtained from other sources, that, on account of the dillapidated condition of the old building now temporarly used as a court house in said county of Coffee, and also for the further reason that there is now, on account of the long drouth, no adequate quantity of water at or near Douglas, Ga., to reasonably supply persons and stock that would necessarily he re quired to assemble in attendance upon a session of the Superior court of said county, it is impracticable to hold the ap proaching Ociober term, 1899 of the Super ior court of said county of Coffee on the day fixed by law for the holding of the same, and that said causes for adjourning court as hereinafter directed are unavoid adle. It is therefore considered, ordered and adjudged by the court, that the regular Octooerterm, 1899, of the Superior court of said county of Coffee be, and the same hereby is adjourned from the second Mon day in October, 1899, to be held on the third Monday in December, 1899.

In view of the fact that there will be no Superior court in Octo ber as usual, and many people have been putting off visits to town “till court week,” to make neces sary purchases of winter clothing, supplies, etc., it is suggested that a big trade-day be gotten up. Work on the farm is in a condition now that “all hands and the boss” can come to town for a day of trade and general recreation, and they will come, too, if invited, there fore the Breeze suggests a trade day for October, some where be tween the 15th and 25th, The merchants want the trade, and the people only need an invitation to be on hand, Chester H.

Last Monday Misses Agnes and Dollie Freeman went down to Waycross to our old home place to get some flowers and were expect ed back that night. Some trestles were burned and they did not re turn until Tuesday, that gentle manly conductor, Capt. Smith having returned from near Sessoms with them to Elsie, where he se cured accommodations for them with Mr. Jasper Smith for the night. The children inform 11s that their treatment at Elsie by Mr. Jasper Smith’s family could not have been better, and that con ductor Smith, in his care and at tention has proven himself not only a safe and reliable employee of the Air Line but a gentleman of the purest type, who proves him self “a friend indeed” on all oc casions. As soon as we can make arrangements we are going to give him a house and lot in Douglas, buy him a railroad of his own, build him a summer residence at Gaskin’s Spring where birds dress ed in green, red and canary feath ers will flit about in trees, foun tains will spurt water in the air and sweet music from mandolins and lutes hid amid the shrubbery in his gorgeous flower yard, will tickle his ear and lull him to sleep in the moon light shadows. At the Same Price. All my best calicoes, river side checks and yard wide sheeting still go at five cents a yard. 1 am thankful for the big trade given me, and I intend to keep prices down in Douglas if I have to do with out meat once a day to do it. Brad Watson, Big Douglas Store. Brother Dickinson filled his ap pointment last Sunday at the Methodist church. His sermons were interesting and logical. One Thousand Sheep Would sell for less a head than if you bought only one out of the bunch. Its the same way in buying goods. By buying for my three stores at Waycross and Douglas I get all kinds of dry goods, clothing and shoes for much less than the little cross road stores that buy in small lots. My prices, therefore, are less than theirs, and I show you a bigger and better stock to select from. Brad Watson, Big Douglas Store. Will Never Leave tbe Old Ways. One hundred years ago, more or less, it was a common rule in the rural districts, on justice court days to meet to settle little differences, to horse-swap, fight, get drunk and some of them to play the smart jack-fool. Justice courts was in tended to meet out justice and help the wronged and oppressed, but some people then, and they da now, who really had no business in these courts were more attentive than litigants. Just went there to drink whiskey, curse, swap horses and some times long ago old feuds were settled in the ring, the combatants stripped to the waist and the best man or most skillful with his fists, ‘was declared victor. Very few people could read and write then, and many times decis ions were made by the justices from their recollections of having heard of or been on the jury when a sim ilar case was decided in the “big courts.” All these things are not improved yet, even in this bright day of civilization. Courts are conducted differently now, the jus tices generally being men of good sound sense and education, but that same hang-on-crowd is on hand regularly, to drink mean whiskey, say smart things, show themselves, and often times cause disturbance, when perhaps there is work enough at home to have kept them em ployed. % Some of j these young men never come to j town without getting drunk, I cursing and playing the fool—will I soon become confirmed drunkards, | spend all their industrious fathers i have made and left for them, and will go down to old age and hell , without a sigh of regret from those 1 who have known them. Brother Poston will yJreacWNas usual, at the Baptist clip re h to morrow. Fashionable hats arriving daily at the Misses Douglases. Buy one.
