His sermon Sun day, and especially Sunday night “was a corker,” and what he did to city officials and particularly our superior court, judge “was a plen ty.” He hit for Representative being democrat, Tracy a hard lick a and, in fact, he said‘‘Cordele didn’t have a man in town,” “that we were born half man and half dog, had starved the man and fed the dog.” Abotft the time Mr. Jones was using this expression a dog happened on the stage and Mr. Jones remaked that “he supposed the dog was hunting a man; that he couldn’t find one in the audi ence and had to come up on the stage.” Mr. Jones was certainly at his best and his sermons were full of wit, pathos and “hard licks.” The program for the week, prin ted in The Sentinel heretofore, was very good, with one or two exceptions. The Orchestra, com posed of Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Pate, Miss Essie Harris, Mr. P. H. Willis and three gentlemen from Macon, furnished magnificent music. The Macon trio was very fine. Miss Napier gave splendid recitations. Prof. Smith’s lectures were fine. Ji o. A. Sibley on Cuba was good.
