Mrs. Martha E, Steen, the London
Medium.
Probably every reader whose thoughts
turn toward spiritualism has heard of Mrs.
Martha E. Steen, tho London medium,
whose physical materializations at one time
threatened to create u revolution in the
world’s metropolis. This medium will be
at the Opera House on the 10th, 11th and
12th inst., and will give some of the wonder¬
ful and startling manifestations that origi
nally puzzled the London world, and later
created excitement in New York, Philadel¬
phia, Boston, Chicago, San Francisco, Port¬
land, Oregon, and other cities in this coun¬
try. It is said: "For three weeks she was
under the closest supervision and examina¬
tion of the leading scientists of England
and in all that time the secret of ln>r pecu¬
liar power—if other than normal remained
undiscovered— as far as {hey knew. I’rof.
Crooks, of the Reyal Society, at the end of
the investigation gave Mrs. Steen a testi¬
monial to the effect that no fraud or trick¬
ary could be detected in her materialization.
Mrs. Steen is very different from the usual
ton of mediums. In the first place she is in¬
tellectually great. No one can remain long
in her presence without feeling it.’’—[Co-
tumba* Enquirer Sun.
This marvellously gifted woman and her
company of English mediums—with Iiou-
elere the Fantasie, will positively appear in
Griffin at Patterson's Hail Friday and Sat¬
urday, June 22 ar.d 23. Seats are now on
sale at Patterson's. You can't afford to

Jackson News: "The Griffiu News
says that John I. Hall, of Spalding, will
probably be the candidate to represent
the 26th Senatorial district, composed
os Butts,Fayette and Spalding counties,
in the General Assembly, at its next sea
sion. We know of no man who would
be more acceptable to tho Democracy
of Butts, than the Hou. John I. Hall.
However, as it is Spalding’s time to so
lect the candidate, Butts has no inchna
tion to dictateas to wboSpalding selects,
so he is a Democrat and capable of fill
ing the position with credit to the dis
trict.

The good little boy of the Sunday-school
book.
Rev. Carswell’s discourse at the
Baptist churcb on Wednesday night
was well spoken of by every one
present.
All the churches now have the
same hour fur morning services,
11.00a.m. 1 would prevent some
confusion if bad the same hour.
The 1’ sbtierian church of New-
nan has been fitted up with elegant
stained glass windows and presents a
decidedly improved appearance. The
windows are of fine cathedral glass
and cost £500.
This morning the hour for service at
St. George’s church will be 10 a. m.;
but after to to-dar the services will
be held at the i;. . , jar of 11 a. nr
At the request of a number of his
congregation, Mr. Dowe announced
the change last Sunday; but upon
more mature reflection the new hour
has heen found inexpedient and
hence will not be adhered to.
Newnan IT raid: “Rev. F. M.
Daniel, of C '.‘n, came over Satur¬
day for the p„. i .se of taking part in
the ordination services at the Baptist
church on Sunday, but was called to
Atlanta by a telegram requesting
him to officiate at the funeral of a
friend in that city the same after¬
noon. He was compelled to leave
on the early train Sunday morning,
much to the regret of friends here,
many of whom were thus debarred
the pleasure of meeting him.”
On next Thursday evening, at the
Female College ball, the Ladies Aid
Society of the Christian church will
give a very enjoyable entortainment,
the proceeds to go toward needed re¬
pairs for the church. Mrs. Idora
Ploughman, widely known by her
“Betsy Hamilton” letters, will give
readings from her highly humorous
writings, which will be interspersed
with first class music. Mrs. Plough
man is a writer and reader of talent,
aqflthe entertainment will be worthy
of everybody’s patronage.
Newnan Herald: “The choir serv
ice at the Presbyterian churcb has
been greatly improved recently and
now comprises some of the best vo¬
cal and musical talent in town. Be¬
sides the organ, which is skillfuly
presided over by Mrs. W. Y. Atkin
son, the cornet has lately been adopt
ed, and it has proven a most pleas¬
ing and harmonious auxiliary to the
choral exercises. The last named
instrument is in charge of Mr. Roy
Cole, one of the finest amateur cor
netists in the State, who has already
mastered a number of popular sacred
airs and renders them most charm
iDgly. The choir holds weekly meet
ings for practice."
Atlanta Journal: Rev. Thomas C.
Carleton was ordained as a Baptist
preacher in Newnan yesterday. The
same day he was called to the pastor
ate of tho Baptist church in Decatur.
Mr, Carleton was Judge of the Conn
ty Court of Elbert couDty from
March 12 1885, until Decembers,
1887, when he resigned and removed
to Newnan. Here heb^an to prepare
for the ministry. His sixth and sev
enth sermons were preached in Deca
tur, and those who heard him were so
pleased that they resolved to select
him for a pastor to reside in Deca
tnr. It is considered a high honor
to occupy a pulpit once filled by Rev
H. H. Tucker. D. D., Rev. C. Shav
er, Rev, F. M. Daniel and Rev. W. H.
Strickland.
The Presbyteriun Centennial cele
bration in Atlanta is attracting much
attention, and tb§ presence of the
leading lights of the denomination
is sufficient to watrant the enthusi
asm and interest aroused by this
meeting. It proposed to establish a
Presbyterian University on a grand
scale, and this important question is
receiving consideration and dne at
tention. Col. Cbas. C. Jones, Jr., of
Augusta, delivered on Thursday the
most luminous aud pertinent address
of the celebration on Presbyterian
ism and education in Georgia, and
his eloquent recital of what wonders
have been achieved with small facili
ties in the past gave abundant hope
for the future of Presbyterian ednea
tion in this grand old State.
A Bad Kanaway.
A fearful ranaw&y frolic occurred
in West Griffin on Friday evening,
bvt without any serious accident.
A negro man was driving a young
horse with a white boy in the buggy
with him. When just opposite Mr
McFarland’s residence the negro
dropped something and stopped his
horse and jumped out upon the
ground without giving the lines to
the little boy, and when he at
tempted to get bacic to- the buggy
the youDg horse took fright and
started off in a breakneck speed.
The boy in the buggy had no means
by which he could either guide or
hold the horse. In his flight the
horse came very near running into a
bu gg y in front of him, in which two
young ladies were takiag an even
ing ride, but be shied around them
and ran across S. W. W. Blood
worth’s millet patch in a curve and
with such speed that the buggy was
carried a hundred ieet on the two
right band wheels. From there he
turned two-coiners in a short dis
tance without upsetting the buggy,
ran a sbert distance further and
stopped. The little boy just held
to the buggy seat for dear life and
never said a word. It was a fearful
sight to behold, but fortunately ter
minated without any special damage
to any one.
Apple Peelings on the Pavement
disturbs many, and often upsets the peo
pla, but how much oftener does the
green apple disturb the stomach and up
set the bowel*. This can be set right
by Dr. Riggers’ Huckleberry Cordial.
