T- J. WHITE. A Busy Season at Indian Springs. Indian Spring, from which pure mineral water, aood for many ills, has coin? trickling down through » huge reck irom time immemorial, mill flows on, but at the present season for pleas ure and health seekers has passed the zenith of all other summer seasons. Des pite the great St. Louis fair, to which countless thousands of people are flock ing from all over the world, there have been large crowds at this popular sum mer resort for several months past, though they are now leaving in great droves and soon the place will be dull and desolate till another glad summer rolls around the calendar of time. Many Griffin people have visited Indian oprings the past season. Among those there last week to spend a period of time and take in the Holiness camp-meeting near by were: Mr. and Mrs. Douglas Boyd and children, Mr. and Mrs. R. F. Strickland, Mr. and Mrs, Edward Smith, Mrs. Wilson Mat thews, Miss Kate Camp, Miss Rosabell Newton, Miss Alline Atwater, Mr. and Mrs. W. F, McLair, Mrs. E. W. Ham mond. Miss lone Hammond, Mr. J. H. Walker, Mr. W. D. Knott, Mr. Emmett McKibben. Mr. W. F. Bolton and others. A pall of gloom was thrown over all the guests Sunday e rening when a beau tiful young lady, Miss Cogggins, of Goggans station, lost her life in a run away. While riding in a buggy the horse* frightened near the bridge and ran away. The young woman was thrown out of the buggy and received injuries from which she died before reaching home. At Flovilla, three miles from the Springs, Saturday night a negro se riously cut the town marshal with a knife while the officer was trying to arrest him. It was thought he would die, but at last accounts he was still alive. The negro made good his escape- The marshal was shot by an evil-doer a couple of years ago, and seems to be murder- proof. He is a clever fellow and a brave officer of the law. The Holiness Camp-meeting, half way between the Springs and Flovilla, closed Sunday night after a two week’s run. It was a glorious meeting and generally conceded by those attending tobethebist held in the past twelve or fifteen years. Revs. Smith, of Cali fornia, and Rev. O, M. Dunaway, the magnetic Georgia evangelist, were among the prominent preachers taking part and doing most of the preaching, while Charlie Tillman was there to lead the singing. Service was held at al most every hour during the day and till nine and ten o’clock at night, and much good was the inevitable result of the meeting., There are many comfortable cottages at the Holiness Camp-ground, and it is one of the best places in Geor gia to hold a great religious meeting R.
