There was not a cotton tie on sale
in Griffin, though there is a ear load
oi'so due here. It is hard to keep
in cotton supplies this year.
Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Logan, of New
■Orleans, arrived in the city yesterday
and will be the guests of Mrs. S. W.
Logan for several days.
The season is at hand when the
belated and benighted citizen will be

J. G. Rhea went to Atlanta yester¬
day and returned in the evening with
Mrs. Rhea, who has been spending
the summer in Virginia and Wash¬
ington.
Rev. B. J. W. Graham, of Macon,
spent Thursday night in the city,
leaving yesterday morning on the G.
M. & G. to fill an appointment in
Meriwether.
One man stopped the News and
Sr.s on the streets yesterday to
abuse it, and another man stopped
at the same time to compliment it.
That is the way it goes—but they nil
take it and they fill read it.
The first rain since September 2d-
nearly eight weeks—fell yesterday
evening. It descended in gentle
showers and thoroughly laid the
stifling dusr. making everybody feel
better.
It is rumored that Seovillo Broth¬
ers, recently interested in the Kimball
House lease and who run several
elegant hotels in different Southern
States, will shortly secure a lease on
Griffin hotel property. If they do, it
will lie run in jam up style.
Wood is very scarce in Griffin at
the present time. The farmers have
b ‘en so busy with their cotton that
they have not brought any wood to
town, and the poor town people yes¬
terday morning stood around in the
cold dust and shivered while trying to
catch a few fugitive rays of sunshine
from the obscured sky.
Cotton receipts show no signs of
of falling off, but are just as heavy
as ever. The priee remains good, be¬
ing 9%c. and 9%c. yesterday. The
country is rapidly tilling up with
money, and it is bound not only to
make good trade this fall, but
largely increased percentage of the
business next year will be on a cash
basis. Middle Georgia was always
the best country in the world, and
now Middle Georgia is'on top. and «n
top to stay a while.
What a grand, great country this
is with its vast territory, its big riv-
ers. its pretty women, and its Veni

Success in life is the result of push and en

‘‘That Settles It.”
Pittsburg Dispatch.
Tuesday night, just as the curtain
went up on the second sceaeof “Ham¬
let,” a gentleman in evening dress (
w h ose fierce m nstacbe and goatee sag
gested fire-eating proclivities march,
ed down the right aisle of the opera
house parquet to a front seat, sat
down, and then, with a very fierce
.expression upon his face, strode up
the aisle again into the foyer and out
of the theater. A gentleman who
saw this singular performance said
tome: “That reminds me of an in¬
cident which took place in this very
theater about a dozen years ago. It
was while Fanny Davenport was
playing an engagement here. A
young man, who was a clerk at the
Union Depot hotel, after a rather
live priming with the boys went to
the opera house. He was a good
looking fellow with a black
moustache, and the figure
he cut that night was
given color by his new light over,
coat and high silk hat. By the time
he reached the theater it was pretty
full, so was he. But he bought a tick¬
et for a parquet seat right down in
front and with tolerably steady steps
he made his way to it. It was in
the middle of a -eerie. What the
play was I don’t remember. As he
reached the seat and was divesting
himself of his loud overcoat Fanny
Davenport came down the stage to
the footlights and said to the villain
who was courting her, but with her
eyes to the audience: ‘I can never
love thee!’ She said it with great
emphasis, and the handsome hotel
clerk arose from his seat, took up
his hat and overcoat, and saying in
a loud voice: ‘Well, that settles it,’
retraced his steps up the aisle, while
the audience burst into a roar of
laughter and applause.’ ”
