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.

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.

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.
