Tht plum crop is large, but the

It is said that there is a lady in
Newnan, who, in addition to her reg.
ular duties, is writing three songs a
day for a Sunday-school collection of
music. She is saving this money to
take a trip to Saratoga this Sum¬

relatives at Smithrille. She passed

is much deplored by all who knew

heart disease.
On Sunday a crowd of small boys
congregated near the Aycock M’f’g

cus performance, during which
young boy named Sledge had his arm
broken. This is the fourth or fifth
accident which has resulted from
simular cause since Forepaugbs’ cir.

mitating the performance under the
white tents seems to be a dangerous
amusement, so far as the lads and
lasses of this city are concerned.

CHANCELLOR BOGGS
AND tiOVEKNOK GORDON'S VIS¬
IT TO GRIFFIN.
Dr. Bocgs to Lecture To-nt*ht--Tne
Alumni Interested—Let the
People Turn, Out.
Governor J. B. Gordon and Chan¬
cellor Wm. E. Boggs, as previously
announced, will arrive on the four
o’clock train this afternoon and visit
the Experiment Farm,- and Dr.
Boggs will lecture at Patterson’s
Hall tonight, at— o’clock, on the
subject of “Education in Georgia.”
Dr. Wm. Boggs, the newly-elected
Chancellor ©f the University is one of
the most progressive educators in
the South and is doing his part to in¬
duce the State to promote thegrowth
of her educational interests. He
seems thoroughly enlisted in his new
field of of labor and enthused with a
desire to advance the cause of com
mon schools as well as university sd
ucation. He has the sagacity to
see that if we are to have such a
university as the educational inter¬
ests of the State demand it must
have a found ation, and that founda¬
tion must be a superior system of
commou schools which will place a
good education in the elementary
branches within reach of every child
in the State. Takingthis broad and
patriotic view of his duties as Chan¬
cellor of the Ssate’s highest educa¬
tional institution, he has responded
to numerours invitations extended
him from various parts of the State
to deliver addresses upon the subject
of education. He has . every¬
where been received with the
most distinguished consideration,
and has succeeded in arousing those
communities to the importance of
improving their schools and educa¬
ting their children. This he has
done of his own volition and at his
own expense, and he deserves all the
more credit for it.
The only alumni of the State uni¬
versity in Griffin are Capt. H. P. Hill,
Col. W. C. Beeeks and R.H. Johnson j
who will assist in receiving.the party,
together with Hon. J. D. Stewart,
Capt. Seaton Grantland, Rev. McN.
McKay and other prominent citizens.
The Governor and Chancellor will be'
accompanied by Prof. H. C. White
and probably several ladies.
The lecture will be one of great in¬
terest, and our people should give
to this distinguished educator and
divine a cordial reception and atten¬
tive hearing. It is especially impor¬
tant that all the teachers, members
of the board of education and all
who feel an interest in the cause of
education, be present.
