After the adoption of the above resolution, Judge Whipple took the floor with a resolution. Before reading his resolution Judge Whipple said he wanted it distinctly understood that he had nothing but the kindliest feelings in the matter towards everyone, but that he had no sympathy with the assertion that blind tigers could not be suppressed, which assertion was received with loud and Judge prolonged applause. ■ The following resolution was then read by Whip ple and unanimously adopted: Judge Whipple’s Resolution.

To Op A NEW DRUG STORE [n ihfi R|) ” ;Ijl Rfififlllflv VlUlUfPfl " ])y ** |1](] pfiODlfiS' 4 ' r Bflllk, Same Partnership to be Proprietors of Cash Drug Store Corner Bolton Building. Mr. A. M. Stead, proprietor of the Cash Drug Store, has taken in a partner, Judge U. V. Whipple, of Cordele. The partnership will own and continue to run the Cash Drug Store in the corner of the Bolton building and in addition will open anew drug store in the room recently vacated by the Peoples’ Bank at the corner of Seventh street and Eleventh Ave. The new drug store will open for business about December first, and will have one of the best lo cations in the city. Messrs. Stead – Whipple are well known and popular, conser ative business men and hustlers. Cordele already has throe drug stores, but that there is room for one more is evidenced by the fact that a new drug store is to open under the firm name of Stead – Whipple. A younger brother of Judge -Whipple’s, Mr. Cliff Whipple, of Savannah, a graduate in phar macy, will hold the position of pharmacist in the new store and will probably own an interest in the business, while the direct management of both the “Cash Drug Store” and “Stead – Whip ple” will be under A. M. Stead, who has made such a wonderful success in the drug business in Cordele. Since the above was put in type we learn that Mr. Cliff Whipple will own an interest and be one of the partnership.

S. Crews, of Albany, general mana ger of the above road, were in the city Friday and Saturday of last week, and Wednesday of this week. The present opera house is a part of the property owned by the bondholders of the old Security company, and Mr. Hamilton said while here, that Cordele deserved a better opera house and by an other season he would see that there was a better one. It is also understood that Mr. Hamilton favors extending the A. – N. railroad on to Hawkinsville and thus fill in a gap that would give an outlet to AugOstaand Charleston by direct line. The Sentinel reporter failed to see Mr. Hamilton on this subject and all Mr. Crews would say about the report was that the talk was news to him. However the extension of this road was said to be un doubtedly a part of Mr. Hamil ton’s business to Cordele. ------------ Error Corrected. The Sentinel last week made an error in stating that Weisiger – Co. would occupy the front part of store just vacated by the Sentinel for the purpose of hand ling fruits, etc. Mr. O. M.
