Prof. Smith went to Sylvenia last week and delivered an ad¬ dress at the commencement exer¬ cises of the school there. We learn from those whom were there that he aqcuitted himself in a most excellent manner. Mrs. Kingman Lowe and her brother Bnrke, have gone to Thomaston to attend the com¬ mencement. Mr. Jack'and his accomplished assistant, Miss Ufa, left for Mil ledgeville this week to attend the commencement exercise of the Industrial College. Mr. Nath Holleman subscribed for the Columbian Encyclopedia. But finding that it had the name of about every machine operat¬ ing politician Hill ip the country spoken of, but had failed to men¬ tion 'the great Georgian and statesman, Ben jam an H. Hill, he has decided to send the book back to its publisners. In1871, Capt. Wm. Dent pur¬ chased six sheep for $12i He has kept an accurate account of them and his record shows that up to the present year, he has had killed by dogs, 15. Died, 46. Butchered 55 Sold 187. He had eighteen left as his flock the beginning of 1893. From these six sheep up to ’93 hejjhas realized, for hides. $16.75; for wool, $176.40; for sheep $380. Total $573.15. Gain $561.15. Mr. Dent considers this a clear gain, and thinks sheep raising can be made a profitable business. Prof. J. D. Smith left Wednes¬ day on a visit to ms parents in Greenville. He will be back to attend the Institute.' We under stand that Prof. Smith will not apply for the school in Knoxville again. His work in Knoxville is the bestaiomplimeni that caii be paid him. His resignation is J a loss to Knoxville, and his placets not going to be filled very easily. We regret to lose him, and our best wishes go with him. Rev. McMichael preached an excellent sermon, Sunday, in Knoxville in favor of foreign mis¬ sion. After services the ladies were requested to remain, and Mrs. Charlie Gray of Fort Valley, who was present for the purpose, organized a foreign missionary society. Mrs. J. B. Lowe was made president, Miss Gussie Le¬ Sueur Vice President, Mrs. J. W. Jones, Corresponding Secretary, Mrs. J. C. Culve^ouse, Confer¬ ence Socy., and Mrs. G. N. Pierce, Treasurer. The society will meet in the Methodist church in Knox¬ ville, at 4 o’clock, on Monday af¬ ter the first Sundav in each month. Ladies are invited to join. FOR SALE.

E- Sandefur, Pierce and Sullivan, of neaar Musella, were here this week and report their crops terribly damaged by the hail storm.. Corn is cut up there is nothing left of the but the stem. In the case of the state vs Adam Scheley, charged with lar¬ ceny, a prelemmary trials was had before Judge Danielly Tues day morning. The negro was found guilty and committed to jail not being able to raise his bond which was fixed at $500. This negro is the one that stole Mr. Wilson’s mule from the rack in rear of the millinery store. He plead drunkenness and ignorance of what he was doing. This had no effect however, and Judge Dauielly* gave him some * light straight talk, saying he felt satis¬ fied the superior court would fix such a sentence upon him that before he had a chance to steal another mule, he would be an old greyheaded man. . ✓ Sunday a group of bicyclist came out with Mr. Bolver Ray from Macon. Mr. Ray left Ma¬ con an hour ahead of the cyclist, but was overtaken long before he reached here. The cyclist made the run in about three hours. |An excellent dinner was spread for them at the hotel under the direc¬ tion of Mr. Ray and our visitors spent a pleasant day. It is use¬ less to say now, that the only thing which can keep the young bloods through here from becom¬ ing cycilist, is a lack of the neces¬ sary spondu-licks to purchase with, I performed a noble feat ray self ©none of the cycles, and 1 venture none of the experienced riders could do it.
