'Tin's makes eleven regular .hoarders at the Hotel Southerland. Death of Little Benjamin Davis- The spirit of this bright little hoy, who was the son of Mr, 11. R. Davis, took its flight to the God who gave it last Friday evening, July 11, after a short illness of only five days. His malady was a severe case of fever. lie was nearly 11 years old, and. leaves i* father and mother, four biothers ;Md one sister to mourn his early departure. His remairts were interil in Mount Zion cemetery, 15 miMs.from Doug las. In their sad hiftiLpf bereave ment, the sorrowingftiainily have our prayers and syrimkriiy. Building An Artiftic Home, “The House arid Jill Built,” the title ti/Bu l illustrated story, the first t^JpP n of which appears in the Delineator, will appeal to lidniantovc r.s where. So cleverltppts the/iuthor told the vari’ us raising of tliis roof tree, tfmt the reader enters thoroughly the spirit of it, and almost feelS-lit*he will have some right and tjjß: to the same when finished. Iguike the usual house plans and 'e' ju:r igfions, the smallest deallsta presented, from the first rj&kjnati to the last decorative .ouefi tjlwfe- Don t Takekßtlwantage- We offered, ooTla- first of July, to enroll euhsCrioers to the Breeze, until January is& fcoj for 25 cents, stating plainly tllllwi wanted new names, that for tip purpose of get ting 500 new subjjprii ers this deduc tion was made. JBhis, of courst, is below the c6;ft,<* printing the paper —$t .00 P%, 'year does not cover it—and wJib not expect, did not think, any|||xfir old subscribers would want t&jake advantage of our effort to gdblri 500 new names. Letting old sun>lribers whose time expires now renew at 25 cents is a loss to us and.does not help our list grow.

It was duly/iled with the post oilice sfficials and few days ago we received : Honj W. G. Brantley, 11, use of Representatives. Sir :i-—I have the honor to advise you 71 connection with your recent reccMimendntsfon, that the allow ance for cloi.kjhire at Douglas, Ga., has been l.Kjreased from to .S2OO per aunflm, to lake effefty ulv 1 st,. 1902. • “ • *. very respectfully, R. J. Wynne, Fist Assis'taat Postmaster General. Miss pollie Trout. ■ n; , ■ ; i ' \ . ,:W' ■ ■ i W ' , y I '■••IF ... . There are some young gentlemen in town who will be glad to know her address which is Pendergrass, Georgia. Miss Tattler Says- That the editor of the dfflafr Breeze pretended that lie was going to Quitman last Is Tuesday to attend the Geor y/j Ml gia Press Association but lie iblM made a mistake and went to Pablo. That the new head promised for the paper, and the one needed by the editor are anxiously awaited. The former is badly worn the other is seriously addled. That Airs. Sibbett returned last Monday night just in time to keep the doctor from displaying a sign on the front gate, “anew wife wanted.” ’Tis, well, if she had found that sign up lie would have wanted anew wife or new some thing else by the time she was done with him. That Douglas is getting out of the dumps fast. She has a City Court Judge, Superior Court Judge, Senator of the district, and is looking around for a job lot of other attractions. That if she is any judge of the way the Briston correspondent writes there will soon be in that direction, a marriage, furneral, fight or foot race. Perhaps all of them. That Air. Courson wrote her a note while the editor was gone., sent a large, sweet melon with it and told her that he was on to the Breeze man’s racket. That he sat back in his office, said “come on fellows with the melons,” and as they come in he eats them, registers and won’t tell who has the biggest until he has eaten all the melons in the county. Greedy is no word for it. That she expects to have but little to say now and there will be less to take back in the future. That an obedient daughter can get in some good licks for her over worked mother by helping with the housework and cooking these hot days, and the son who has been a pupil at school all the year can help his father mightily by leading a hand in pulling fodder or chop ping the grass out of the cotton. And that’s no joke. No Back Numbers. As we have said we are putting on new subscribers rapidly. Some of them have written and applied for hack numbers of the Breeze, in order to catch on to the first chap ters of the story now running-Mu-r --ricll’s Band—in these columns', which cannot be supplied. We will, however, in order to help them all we can, publish a synopsis of previous chapters in our next edi tion which will enable them to fol low the drift of the n irratiye. In to-days paper another charac ter is introduced, and in order that she may be watched more closely through .the chapters to follow., we Will state'that' she was the mother of some prominent, people now living in Dooly and Irwin coupties. The reader may think from the absence of Mike Ready in to-day’s paper that the Indians roasted him, as he was in their hands when last heard from, but that’s a mistake. Mike will show up again before you know it. Some of your.grand mothers and fathers have bought needles, pins, calico, and other goods from him, for lie peddled all over Coffee, Irwin, Dooley and Ware counties, way hack in the forties, which is another proof that “nothin’ could kape that Irishman fiat on his hack.” “When the Fields are White With Cotton.” Whilden, the music man is sell ing from SI,OOO to $1,500 worth of Organs and Pianos, Buggies and Wagons per month, and with his | large stock of fine Organs, Kimball, j Crownr-and other celebrated makers | wants to supply the whole country, j Your credit is good. You can get lan instrument or vehicle, pay part I down, pay so much monthly, and when the “fields are white with | cotton” wipeout the whole debt. (Then, when the long winter nights * come, there’ll be music in the home. / Briston News Bubbles. 1 July 12, 1902. —Since our last) J report, crops seem to be improving. ’j Another very heavy rain came ; again yesterday p. 111. Everything is sure damp to-day. The people are clearing out the road, this a. m., between here and | Air. B. Morris’ plantation, which 1 was blockaded last week by the ■ storm. Avery large crowd from Briston and surrounding community, at ; tended services at Olive School House last Sunday. All seemed to enjoy the services very much, really it is a treat to have the opportunity’ of sitting under the sound of Elder Hewett’s voice, and we trust that he will continue to grow in wisdom and power of the Holy Ghost. Air. Tom Morris, a citizen of Briston, with his wife made a fly ing trip to Willacoochee last Tues day. Mr. Dred Newbern, a successful farmer near here made a trip to Douglas last Monday. hast Wednesday and Thursday was Public road working days and all the hands report a hot time. So hot till all felt like going way back and falling in (-the water). One of the subscribers of the Breeze went to the barbecue last Saturday and went to the Breeze office twice but the key was turned on him. He had some money for the Breeze hut he brought it back home. [Please tell him to come some more. Barbecues don’t hap pen often, and it is evident the Breeze man was trying to enlarge his (size) subscription list. He had “one more” square meal.—Ed.] Roasting ears, water melons, peaches and other good eatables on hand. Don’t we have a hog killing time, Mr. Editor. [That’s right; we live in the best country in the world. The farmers make good crops and live fine.
