C., one of our bright, energetic young ladies, gave the Tribune office a pleasaut call last Satur¬ day. Miss Daly spoaks of enter¬ ing school hero in September.

Our little town was enlivened last week by the bevy of young lady teachers who were in attendance on the Institute. Space forbids ns mentioning them all by name, bill it is sufficient to say they were all pretty and ac¬ 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 changed to that of the Southern Railway Co., with S. B. Spencer as president.

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.

Only 25c, 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.

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, WHEN THE HEART IS AF¬ FECTED By Rheumatism or any of the muscles near that organ, it is like tampering with an electric wire, for death may come at any mo¬ ment.

During the storm that passed near this place on Friday last, Mr. J. D. Allen lost a good Horse by lightning. Mr. Allen was driving the horse to bis buggy when it was killed. The lightning struck just in front of liis horse on the left of the road, killing him instantly. Mr. Allen was shocked some¬ what, and has since complained of a strange feeling in his head, though he is attending to business as usual. Mr. Allen lives near this place and is one of our best citizens. The horse was worth about seventy or seventy-five dol¬ lars. We sympathize with him I ill liis loss, but we are glad that | he escaped unhurt.
