THE ENTERPRISE.

h New Accident Insurance Company
In the South.
A recent trip of Mr. Lockwood,
the president of the Provident Fond
.Society of New York, through the
South convinced him of the import¬
ance of establishing for hit; company
a southern pepartment or branch
with principle office at Atlanta, for
which arrangements have been made.
This southern department will com¬
prise the states of Georgia, Norti
and South Carolina, Virginia, Ten¬
nessee, Alabama and Florida. All
'business in these states will be con¬
ducted through the Atlanta office,
which will he fully equipped and un¬
der able management.
The Provident Fund Accident So-
cietv has an excellent reputation; has
paid many thousands of dollars to its
members in indemnity, and is a com¬
pany that ought to make a steady
progress in the great new south.
The company has branch offices
established at Denver, St. Paul,
Cleveland, Philadelphia, Washington
awl Cincinnati, and is making liberal
contracts with able men that can se¬
cure business. The principal office
.of the society is at ‘29 Broadway,
Kew York city.—-Atlanta Constitu¬
tion, June 9, 1891.
The Southern department is under
the management of M. Lee Starke,
and arrangements are now
made to have leading men of the
South represent the company. Big
inducements arc offered to the right
men. The best territory is being
taken. Write at once for terms and
secure control of your section. Ad¬
dress, M. Lee Starke, room 70, Old
Capitol building, Atlanta, Ga.
Sullivan Hardware Company.
Parties want ing to buy machinery
any kind should write to the Sullivan
Hardware Company, Andeiwja, S. C.
and get their price* before placing
their orders. This firm makes a spe¬
cialty of selling steam engines, ectton
gins, presses, saw mills, wagon scales,
shafting, pulleys, etc., and we un¬
derstand that their prices are very
low. They are general agents for
the Erie City Iron Works engines,
S/nith cotton gins, and DcLoach
saw mills, several of which have been
sola in tiiis and adjoining counties
ami are giving perfect satisfaction.
They also report large sales of tho
Thomas Suction Cotton Elevator,
w hich unloads the cotton from wagon
to gin tiy suction and is now becom¬
ing so popular among all ginners.
They ask us to say if parties who arc
needing machines of any kind will
write and state what is wanted they
will take pleasure in quoting rock
bottom prices.

telligenccr,
Jolm Wansley brought in two
i ions oars of corn yesterday. One
was composed of 12 and the other 2i>
small ears vi corn, well grained, and
the ., «lmle ,i, ( i enveloped wnh XX r\th .ed rod k\V’<
ms H something new^ tu the “
line, and we would like for some of
scientific friends to give us an
explanation of the cause.
A Big Haul
Messrs. Wansley, Umhardt,
King wont seining Monday evening
last ami met with wonderful SlK^CfiSS.
In a small hole (i by 8 feet, with
ter .’Ij 1 inches deep, they caught. 275
fish great and small. This was more
than 5 fish to the square foot. The
fishermen report that one drag of the
seine would gather all the fish on the
surface, but us soon as this was done
others would raise their heads out of
the mud, and with a dirty tear in
their eye would say, “don’t leave us.”
Of course the Ijoys continued to scoop
them until fatigued with sport, and
overloaded with spoils they bent their
steps homeward. Now we admit
tllis is a vei 7 w g tale >” hut then
we are prepared for anything big
about Carnesvillo.
She Wanted It Wrapped Up,
A diy goods store is not a very
common-place affair in a country
town, and funny things often happen
theio. A woman went into J. h
McConnell’s store the other day, and
after looking at numerous articles,
finally bought a four-gallon stone
churn.' It was brought forward and
she, with much dignity, requested
the salesman to wrap it up. This
staggered him somewhat, but he
tied a now bundle of paper and neatly
wrapped up the churn, and the pur-
chaser went her way satisfied.
A Hew Public Well.
The old public bored well is now
a tiling of the past. It. has been “dug-
up” and a large well of the old fash¬
ioned kind i.s being completed in its
stead. We hope that mean, villian-
ous stinking tree that stands near the
well will be dug & up 1 and cast into the
tire. Such trees are an unhealthy
■
nuisance m anv town. They will
ruin any J well in fifty feet of where
they stand. Their foul odors while
in bloom 3re cough ° lo .ookoo a
biass mon.voy.
The Legislature Photographed.
The Constitution of last Sunday
contained a cut and small life sketch
of each member of the Georgia legis¬
lature. Almost every member js past
middle age, and the body is a very in¬
telligent-looking set of men.' It was
a very clever stroke of enterprise on
the part of Georgia’s great daily in
letting the people see the men who
represent them.
The Alliance Meeting.
The Farmers’ -Vllianee held a meet¬
ing at the court, house Tuesday. We.
don . , , know the , ot ( their ,, *.
t natnro ]>ro-
ceeding, but we understand that they i
are determined to have a newspaper
in this county that will represent
their interests and defend their
They are right and we wish
them success.
A Peculiar Kind of Cotton.
W. J. Wanslcy has a very queer
and what might he called an indus¬
trious stalk of cotton. It i.s well- !
fruited stalk, and last Saturday had
fifteen ,, squares that , had , ,,, bloomed, , and ,
each square had two blooms. lie |
will watch the stalk with interest and
see what the outcome will he.
Bov. Miller Willis Bead.
Rev. Miller Willis, one of the evan¬
gelists who conducted a holiness
meeting at this place a few years ago,
died at the home of his sister in Spar¬
tanburg, S. C., last week. A great
many who knew him while he was
here will be sorry to hear of his
death.
Mrs. Dr. Osborn in Franklin.
Mrs. Dr. I). O. Osborn, formerly
of this place, but now of Campbell,
Texas, accompanied by her two
youngest daughters, is visiting rela¬
tives and friends in town and near
Lavonia. Mrs. Osborn is well pleased ,
with her Texas home.
