several policies. These agents keep
well up with lie times, striking this

The amrnoniacal refrigerator en¬

Atlanta by H. I. Kimball is meeting
witn much s iccess, one may
judge from the prominent men taking
hold of it. Mr. G. M. Traylor, once
a citizen of this community, is among
the company. This scheme if a
success is said to greatly cheapen the
refrigerating business as the melting
of ice is very expensive and few can
afford to have it at distances from
cities where it is manufactured. The
above mentioned refrigerating pro¬
cess is applicable to wants of the
farmer at cheap rates.

It was thought that the marriage
of Dr. S. S. Pitman to Miss Susie
Gillespie was a runaway mutch, but
his bride was visiting friends in this
city and she did not come with the
intention of marrying at present, the
bride and groom simply married in
this city without knowing whether her
father objected or not. Dr. Pitman
is a prominent physician here, well
worthy of the handsome lady he has
won and has many friends. The
bride is from one of the best families
in the state and has hosts of friends
throughout the community who wish
her many pleasant days.
An EMjoyable Aflklr.
The most enjoyable entertainment
of the season was given at the resi¬
dence ot Mrs. Kate L. Moss, near
Whitesville, on Monday evening,Jan.
Notwithstanding the inclemen¬
cy of the weather a large crowd of
invited guests assembled to partici
pate in the pleasures of the occasion,
The parlor was artistically decorated
by Misses Fanny Lou Moss and Lil¬
lian Ridenhour. The programme,
arianged by Miss Amy Moss, was as
follows:
Grand Chorus—Gospel Train.
Recitation—Miss Lizzie Moss—
“d affy.”
Guitar solo—Miss Fanny Lou Moss
— Danube River.
Inst, duett—Misses Amy and Liz-;
z ; e Moss— Mocking Bird.
Recitation—Miss Lillian Riden¬
hour— Irish Woman’s Letter. ‘Gig
gling” chorus. j

Inst, duett—Misses F. L. and Liz¬
zie Moss—Bride of the Wind.
“Comb” duett—Misses Amy and
Lizzie Moss—“Hold up Your Light.”
Recitation—Miss Ridenhour—The
Naughty Little Girl.
“Cat Chorus,” by special request,
elicited storms of applause. The vo
cal solo, with guitar accompaniment,
was rendered in a most charming and
effective manner by Miss Fannie Lou
Moss, who has just returned from the
LaGrange Female College, where
she has been perfecting herself in vo
cal music, under the noted and gifted
Miss qt Witherspoon. *
The recita ions by Miss Ridenhour
weie rendered in such a pleasing
manner that it displayed a wonderful
talent and careful training. From
time to time the audience was moved
to tears or convulsed with laughter,
so perfect was her adaptation to the
different humors.
The recitations were all exception¬
ally good, but the “Naughty Girl”
elicited such applause that she re¬
sponded to the encore with the touch
ing and pathetic “Sister and I.”
The most novel feature of the oc
casion was the “Comb Duett,” which
reflected much credit on
the performers.
At a late hour the guests dispersed,
carrying pleasant memories of
an occasion never to be forgotten.
