GBIFFIN GETS A CREAMERY
Thu Was Settled at a Kass Meeting
Held This Afternoon
A large number of our business men
met at 4 o'clock this afternoon for the
purpose of securing a creamery for
Griffin. The meeting was organized by
electing Dr. N. B. Drewry chairman
and R. H. Drake secretary.
Dr Drewry in taking the chair
made a short speech, showing the ad
vantages such an enterprise would be
to the farmers of Spalding county,
upon whom the merchants of our city
depend so largely for a support.
Col. Redding staled that the station
had demonstrated the fact that as
good butter and cheese could be made
here as anywhere in the country. It
was the most profitable business that
could be engaged in, and the trouble
so far has been that it was only enjoy
ed on a small scale, He was sure that
if those present would contribute to
the enterprise, it would prove very
profitable. He stated that a first class
creamery would cost between $5,000
and SG,OOO
It was the desire of Mr. Wallace,
who represented Northern capitalists
to have the citizens of Griffin sub
scribe $2,500 toward the enterprise,
which amount was to be paid back to
subscribers, with 7 per cent, interest,
as soon as the creamery was estab
lished on a paying basis.
The matte? was discussed at con
siderable length, and all entered harti.
ly into the plan. Upon motion of
Judge Robt. T. Daniel, a committer,
consisting of N B. Drewry, R. H.
Drake, H. J. Wing, H. 11. Bass and
Douglas Boyd was appointed to raise
the necessary papers, and complete all
the arrangements for establishiug the
creamery.
All present pledged their hearty
support to the enterprise and a cream
ery for Griffin is now an assured fact.
The meeting then adjourned subject
to a call from the
Eleven Companies Go Out.
Atlanta,Ga , MarehST.—As a result
of the inspection of state troops by In

Glorious News
Comes from Dr. D. B. Cargile, of
Whashita, I. T. He writes: “Four
bottles of Electric Bitters has cured
Mrs. Brewer of scrofula, which bad
caused her great suffering for years.
Terrible sores would break out on her
head and face, and the best doctors
could give no help; but her cure is
complete and her health is excellent.”
This shows what thousands have
proved—that Electric Bitters is the
best blood purifier known. It’s the
supreme remedy for eczema, tetter,
salt rheum, ulcers, boils and running
sores. It stimulates liver, kidneys and
bowels, expels poisons, helps digestion,
builds up the strength. Only 50 cents.

CHANGE IN MANAGEMENT.
Osborn & Wolcott Secure the Olympic
Theatre for Six Years
The Osborn A Wolcott Manufactur
ing Company have closed a deal with
the Odd Fellows, whereby they be
come lessees ol the Olympic Theatre
for a term of six years, beginning the
first of next September.
Osbern & Wolcott have made Mr J.
W. Gresham manager of the theatre,
who will give the business his persona]
attention. Mr Gresham has had con
siderable experience in the business,
and staled to a Call reporter today
that the house would be kept up to its
present standard. He intended only
booking the best of attractions, and
would give no company a date unless
he knew it to be all right.
We wish the new management a
successful career.
While mentioning the Olympic, we
will not hesitate to say that the finest
attraction of the season will appear
there tomorrow evening, and is de
serving of a packed house. If you
have not done so, secure your seats at
once and see Rip Van Winkle tomor
row night.
Half a Century an Actor-
Mr. Samuel W. Glenn was seen al
the theatre in two performances yes
terday in Rip Van Winkle. The per
formance last night was a meritc
rious one and deserved a belter
audience
The interpretation which Mr. Glenn
gave of Irving’s famous character was
natural, refined and in every way ex
cellent. It showed oajeful study of
detailaud an ixcdllent conception
of the role. His enunciation—like
that of most of the actors of the old
school to which Mr. Glenn belongs;
was perfect., and his movements were
graceful.
Mr. Wm. H. Bokec, who appeared
as Derrick von Slauss, gave a splendid
virile portrayal. The other characters
were well taken. Julia and Josie Roon
ey, two bright little children, as Hend
rick and Lorena, were delightfully
charming. They sang a pretty lisle!
song and danced gracefully—Morning

GRIFFIN, GEORGIA, MONDAY EVENING, MARCH 27, 1899.
AT BERNER S REQUEST
The Third Georgia Regiment Will be
Mastered Oat in Augusta
Savannah, Ga., March 27 —Tisu
Third Georgia regiment is al hump
again. The transport Logan, which
brought the regiment from Nuevitaa,
reached the Savannah quarantine
station at 12 : 30 o'clock yesterday and
there it stopped »o that the men might
go through with the process required
of all passengers !rom Cuba, namely,
fumigation. The moat interesting
feature in connection with the return
of the Third Georgia, so far aa has yet
been learned, is that the regiment,
contrary to all expectations, will be
mastered out at Augusta, instead of
Savannah or Griffin. This was de
cided yesterday and will be done st
the request of Colonel Robert L. Ber
ner, who said be would prefer to have
his regiment taken to Augusta to re
maining in Savannah.
The Third Georgia regi ment wall
unloaded at once on the arrival of tbe
Logan, and the work of disinfecting
the men waa begun. They had to re
move their clothing, put it all into
one big pot aud have the disinfecting
gases run through it. When the pro
cess—to which the < ffic<*rs, even the
colonel, are subjected, as well as tbe
men—it completed, the regiment will
be hurried up to tbe city as rapidly as
possible. They will be brought up on
lighters attached to tugs, and also on
the river steamer Santee, which is
used by the government for this pur
pose
Half Os the regiment will go to Au
gusta by the Plant System and tbe
other half by the Central of Georgia,
Part of them will be left at the Gordon
wharf and the others will go to the
Central wharf, where trains will be in
waiting for them.
The Georgians are in excellent con
dition, and there is no sickness among
them. Tbe fumigation, however, is a
matter of precaution taken in all cases
and to which all troops will have to
submit.

he bad been selling nothing which
would conflict with the Mayor’s trade.

was fined $5 00 which he paid.

A COUNTY FAIR
Is What We Want and Should Have
in Spalding County.
Did the people of Griffin and Spald
ing county ever stop to consider the
advantages we might have over other
sections of the state in a county fair?
And do 'bey ever think what benefits
might and can be derived from a fair ?
We do not mean a stale or world’s
fair. We refer exclusively to a county
fair, made up wholly of tbe products
Os Spalding county.
Several of the counties in Georgia
have established annual county fairs,
which are paying institutions, and
there is no reason why Spalding should
not advertise in this way what she can
do.
We have the Georgia Experiment
Farm here, and it is but just that some
mousideraiioit should be shown it in
pulling upon exhibition its products.
What aay tbe good people of Spald
ing? Lal us get together and talk the
matter over, and have a county fair in
the fall.
