Uncle Frank Attawuy, the life

tion, and prepare for thorough
teaching.
Our little town was enlivened
last week by the bevy of
young lady teachers who were in

complished. The young people
enjoyed a nice sociable given by
Miss Mary McConnell and another
by Miss Lizzie Tucker, given in
honor of the teachers.
The name of the Richmond and
Danville railroad will soon be

Railway Co., with S. B. Spencer
as president. This is the outcome
of the reorganization of the R. &
D. property since it was sold at
receiver’s sale. We hope the new
management will be successful
and able to help us complete our
road. Mr. Spencer is a native
Georgian and will no doubt take
pleasure in assisting us in any
way he can.
Judge Daniel McKenzie has
contracted with 11. J. Wiles, of
Atlanta, for a fire and burglar
proof vault to be placed in the
court house for the protection of
the records and papers of the
county. The contract also in¬
cludes changing the interior of
the court house so as to put the
bar and jury rooms on the east
side of the building. These are
very much needed improvements.
The vault should have been built
years ago, as the risk has been
too great upon records that it
would cost thousands of dollars
to duplicate.

To Our Worthy County School Com¬
missioner anu the County Board ol
Education of Franklin County,
Georgia: that
After having been informed
there is no public school fund lor the
spring term of 1895, we, th lured
teachers of Franklin county, beg to
submit the following resolutions :

THE POPULIST MEETING IN
j CARNESVILLE
The P ilist had a grand rally
in this place yestorday Two of
their biggest men were on hand—
MahulVyaud Peek. Mahaffy spoke
iu the morning and Peek in the
afternoon. There were five or six
hundred people, present—big, lit-
tie, old and young, black and
white. Mr. Mahaffy spoke about
two hours. He made a reasona¬
bly fair talk. He paid Mr, Cleve¬
land a glowing tribute of praise,
and said he thought he (Cleveland)
had been badly belied by all par¬
ties. He thought Mr. Cleveland
was perfectly honest and consci¬
entious, but claimed that lie was a
Republican. He also spoke in the
highest terms of Speaker Crisp
and It. Q. Mills, of Texas. He
claimed that the Democrats had
not carried out auy of their prom¬
ises to the people except the re¬
peal of election law. llis speech
was a very fair Populist speech.
the afternoon we Expected to
hear something great from the
ex-candidate for Governor, but we
were sadly disappointed, for Mr.
Peek’s speech whs nothing but u
perfect liarraugue, interspersed
with a few stale and vulgar anec¬
dotes.
The crowd was orderly during
the whole dav. There was but
little enthusiasm manifested.
There was a few Democrats pres¬
ent, but none of them interrupted
the speakers at auy time, and the
day passed off very pleasantly.
The program for the Sunday-
school celebration at Pulliam’s
school house came in too late for
publication this week. We regret
it, but will publish it next week.
Napoleon lost the buttle of Lei; sit;

chase at Dr. H. G. Freeman’s drug

fills, and in a week’s time lie would
feel like a new creature Thus days of

RAIN AND HAIL STORM.
Friday afternoon a severe wind
and hail storm paid its respects
to a small seotion of country
about three miles southeast of
towih It blew down trees, fences
and buildings in its path. On J.
It. Ayer’s place we learn every
out building on the farm was
blown down and tho dwelling
house only left standing. John
Miller’s place was very much dam¬
aged, Several other farms in its
wake suffered very much from tho
wind, and the hail that fell did
considerable damage to growing
crops.
G. IT. Banks’ fine orchard was
badly injured by his trees being
blown down.
So far as we have learned there
was no loss of human life from
the storm,
