Redding, director of the form, called to pay respects to the News a.vd fkw and in conversation in re¬ to the recent contracts for new at the farm made the fol¬ statement. “It is entirely an unfounded idea we wished to favor an Atlanta in preference to any On the contrary, we would have preferred to let the contract to a Griffin party, but among the five bids—one from a Griffin firm— we were obliged to select the only one that came within the appropria¬ tion of five thousand dollars, the others running way above that sum. We advertised in the Griffin paper as well as an Atlanta paper; perhaps it might have been better to have an extra set of drawings here, but they were to be had by simply dropping a postal card to Atlanta— and Messrs. Henderson and Thicker did get them that way. “Our three families add twenty souls to the population of the com¬ munity, and in every purchase that we make for ourselves or for the farm Griffin will be given the prefer¬ ence. I have made my home here and hope that, all things being satis¬ factory, It will be permanent. It ta my purpose to become identified with the community, and I shall cer¬ tainly try to benefit it in every way possible. “It has never been my habit to pay too much attention, to criticistams upon my official conduct, but you may publish os much of this conver¬ sation as you may think necessary to put the matter in a proper light to the citizens of Griffin.” Mr. Redding spoke very candi dly and sincerely, and left theimpression that he meant all that he said.

Sells Brothers and Barrett with their united shows will introduce more hovel features in their street parade this year than all other shows in America combined can produce. Each of these shows was fully equip¬ ped for th® tenting season, and in¬ tended to tour tjie country separate¬ ly, but, by has/ever a stroke of genius, more bold than before been at¬ tempted, they Sarranged to travel and exhibit in conjunction. It was a , difficult task to find room on their sixty long cars for the two shows, and in order to add a brand new fea¬ ture never before introduced in this country, ten new cars, eachjsixty-five feet in length, had to be built. The feature alluded to above is the Chil¬ dren’s Dream of Fairyland, exempli¬ fied with many golden chariots, rep¬ resenting the priusipal features of fairy lore—among which is Robinson Crusoe, Old Mother Goose, Cinderella, Blue Beard, Little Red Riding Hood, Santa Claus and the Old Woman Who Lived in a Shoe. These golden chariots drawn by ponies, together with the miniatm-e Tally Ho coach with monkey footmen and attend¬ ants, will appear in the parade. Over fifty cages two droves of camels, two herds of elephants, many bands of music, and hundreds of other fea¬ tures will be worth going many miles to see, and is only a partial index of the wealth of wonder displayed under the huge canvasses. It requires fou r extra large locomotives to haul this immense show upon the levelest rail¬ roads. This grand parade will ap¬ pear at about 10 o’clock on the streets of Griffin Thursday, Oct 3d.

Subscriptions will soon be started under its provisions and it ta hoped before long to have this beneficial organization under thor¬ ough headway. We shall have more to say of the plan in the near future. The car of cotton which was burn¬ ed on the track below the Central de¬ pot Tuesday night was loaded above here on the S. G. ft N. A. RR. for Sa¬ vannah and brought in by the even¬ ing frieght on that road and it is sup¬ posed to have taken fire from sparks of the engine which pulled the train. The end of the car was open. About 200 pounds of dingy yellow cotton was saved. The preliminary trial of W. S.

After hearing Nichol’s state¬ ment the case was closed and McCord was required to give bond in the sum of $200 which he did immediately and was released.
