Epworth League The Epworth League met last Sunday night at 7:30 in the Sunday School room of the Methodist church. Many of the members seemed to think that the Chautauqua would interfere with the meetiug, conse quently, the attendence was not so large as expected. However to those present Miss Nell McKown showed H“ r seif a good leader. Miss Anna Lou Redwine will furnish the pro- g.am ior the next meeting. The following committees were appointed by the officers. Second Vice Pres., Miss Nell Mc Kown—Anna Lou Redwine, Alva Lowrey, Mrs. Pierce. Third vice pres. Mrs. West—Alma Bonner, Kate Martin, Mary Lou Bledsoe, Alva Lowery, Hattie Gentry. Fourth vice pres. Miss Redwine Kate Brown, Mary Gentry, Annie Martin. Come, and bring that doleful little neighbor with you; she isn’t half so tiresome as you think she is, at leaBt she won’t be when the Epworth Lea gue is through with her.

B- B. Thomasson Passes Away ' Col B. B. Thomasson who had been in ill health for some several months, died last Monday afternoon at the residence of his father Mr. J. J. Thomasson, on Maple Street. Col. Thomasson was a graduate of the University of Georgia and Yale. He began the practice of law in January 1909 the partner of W. D. Hamrick who died two weeks ago Mr. Thomasson was a young man of splendid business ability and the prospects for a bril liant career were universally pre dicted by friends. He was 28 years of age, and an enthusiastic member of the Elks and Masonic orders, the latter of which had charge of the funeral services from the Methodist churh. He leaves a father, mother, five brothers and three sisters to mourn his loss, and to these we join many friends in extending condolence. J. J. Holloway Slates Position on Election of Senator. First and forepiost I have fav ored all along the election of United States Senators by vot^s of the people. Inasmuch as it is now up to the Legislature to make this choice; I hold it to be the sacred and pa triotic duty of each legislator to en deavor to select the best and most available man who will fill this im portant position in the interest of the people. Considering the fact that it is very probable that there will be several other candidates in addition to those already announced, I think it would be very , unwise for me to pledge my support to any one can didate before knowing who, or how many may be in the race. I want it therefore distinctly un derstood that I desire to go to the Legislature, untramelled, unpledged to any one candidate, and entirely free to do the very best thing I can for the people. I have fixed convictions along these lines, and I would not part with them to be President. Respt., J. J. Holloway Mr. Chas. Hammond Dead. As we go to press we learn of the death of Mr. Charles Hammond, which occured suddenly about noon today at his home three miles west of town. He had not been in good health for some time but was able to get abt^t and had been to town Thursday morning, He leaves a wife and three daughters to whom, we, with other friends, extend our sym pathy. Mr. I. R. Harmon Dead. The many relatives and friends of Mr. J. R. Harmon were made sad when on Wednesday morning the news went forth that he was dead Mr. Harmon had been in failing health for several months and had spent sometime in an infirmary in Atlanta: tout returned home a few days ago. The funeral services were held at the residence on Longview Street, Thursday morning, conducted by Rev, W, E. Dozier, and interment was in the city cemetery. The bereaved ones have our sympathy. Withdraws From Race Considering the fact that my duties as cashier of the Whitesburg Banking Company are such that it will be impossible for me to visit any other part of the county than my own district, I hereby withdraw from the race for the Georgia Legis lature. James A. Kelley. Gen. Evans Selected Adjutant Gen. Clement A Evilas. ane of the most honored Confederate vet erans, will be appointed as Adjutant General by Governor Hoke Smith to succeed Gen. A. J. Scott. Gen. Evans has been serving as a member of the State Pri on Com mission, and his appoint in ent as Adjutant General will create a vacancy on the Commissi' n which Gov. Smith will fill by appointment of Judge T. E, Patterson, of Griffin. Gov. Smith has selected one of Georgia’s most beloved veterans as Adjutant General. Gen. Evans lias been in very poor health for some time, but his host of friends are glad to know that his condition is now somewhat improved. Gen. Scott, the retiring Adjutant General, has made a most capable official, and had the endorsement of practically the entire member ship of the state military fo*- re-ap pointment. Quartermaster General W. G. Obear *will doubtless be re tained.
