Teaching School.
Miss Cornelia Floyd has accepted a
school at Mount Pleasant, Troup county,
and is teaching it with much success.
The community is to be congratulated
that secures her services.
The South Georgia Conference.
Tbe South Georgia conference is in
session at Sandersville this week, Bishop
M Tyeire presiding. The appointments
will appear in tne Georgia dailies early
next week and the suspense of theohurch
en will be over. The pastor appointed to
tbe Hamilton circuit may not be equally
acceptable to all the members of the va¬
rious ehurcbovS, but each should resolve
to receive him in a Christian spirit as
God’s chosen messenger to us. The man¬
tle of Christiau love should be large
enough to enfold him, whoever be may
be.
Robbery at Midlaud.
One of tbe boldest robberies of recent
date was perpetrated Wednesday night at
Midland, a station ou tbe Georgia Mid¬
land, five or six miles from Columbus.
Two men were sleeping in tbe rooms
back of the store, and after securing the
door to prevent their exit the robbers
blew open the iron safe and carried off
all the money, with other articles of val
uo they found in the store. It
is probable they are the same thieves
who attempted to blow open the iron safe
at Hudson & Johnston’s warehouse last
Thursday night.
Christ’* Natal Ray.
Christmas is near at hand. It is de*
signed to celebrate this day as tbe great¬
est event in the world’s history, bat some
persons have peculiar ideas about tbe
manner in which Christ’s natal day should
be celebrated. They think that to make
tbe day joyous they mnst pour liquid fire
down their throats that steals away their
brains. Physical suffering and remorse
foHow while nothing is gained. We hope
the men of Harris county will
take a mental pledge not to tonoh intoxi¬
cating drinks dnring the holidays, and
then they will begin the sew year with
clear heads and good oonscienoes.

minds of tbe average citizen. W ell, one
of the very best places is the crockery
store of I L Pollard & Go. The New

able holidav gift** as a house can well be,

toys, dolls and little tricks for the little

useful things for the old folks. Mr R W
Williamson is in charge and he will take

give the very lowest prices and his taste
is faultless. You enn find no better place
to trade.
