Look what a profit in right here

DOWN WITH PRICES!
Says GYLES, and they THEM-

morning opens with dark and
murky clouds, overhanging the
eastern and southern horizon with
» raw easterly wind, which Is both
nnplessant and unhesltby. A few

quantity to soften the ground for
plowing in grain.
Tbe mnob puffed show of Doris

repetition of its predcoessors—
baldly so good. Tho trapeze per-

tho menagerie also wss good, both
in Tariety and condition. It Is
also well filled with a set of sharp
ers and swindlers, who do not scru
ple to ply their vooatlon as such,
on the ignorant and unsuspeotlng.
Several persons were victimized
while In Eufsula in small sums.
Such Itinerant thieves should be
punished in every Instance when
detected.
