Another Hatch of Names for Our New
Hotel Handed In* |
It is barely possible that the board of
directors of tlie new hotel will suffer
from an embarrassment of richer If sug
gestions continue to pour in as they have
been doing for the past few days. The
following were handed in to-day:
Mrs. G. D. Buchanan hands in this
batch to select from. Either will suit
her: Hollenbeck, Richeliea, Arcadia,
Cambria, Alexandria, Westminster, and
Xadean.

The Times-Recobdeii: I tlilnk it
would bo good taste to take a name with
a national ring tc It. I propoae for our
new hotel the name of “The Cleveland."
B. F. F.
The Times-Recordeh: What Is the
matter with "The Sumter Hotel ?"
This is not only the name of our county,
but It is eminently historical. What
more ia wanted ? Birke County.
Fancy Grocery
LINE
Aud keep a watch on this space.
The Tihes.Recoiideii: If you want
something unique, arabesque, and en
tirely original for your hotel, there is no
necessity for roaming all over the world
for a name while we have that noble
stream at our doors, the Muckalee. I
therefore name the new hotel “The Muk-
alee.” How is that for style and sound
and general tone ? J. K.
A Sweeping Reduction
will be made? on all Foot-Wear
purchased of ns in the
Next 30 Days!
In this Sweeping Sacrifice Sale
unpreceedented bargains will be
offered on all LOW CUT SUM
MER SHOES, and;we expect that
the annonncement of this sale will
((
We are not after room as most
merchants would say—but are AF
TER MONEY—room we have
enough—but aro SHORT ON
MONEY.
If you want to know what we
mean by a SWEEPING Reduc
tion, come to this
The Times-Recohdek: It is contrary
to my views of propriety, to say nothing
about right, to med lie in any way with
what is strictly other people’s business;
and I am not sure that it is even allow
able for un outsider—a man who is
neither a stockholder nor a director of
our hotel company—to offer a suggestion
in reference to Its name; but as you ask
for such suggestions, and as many have
been given, I take the liberty of saying
that Americus is certainly the metropo
lis of southwestern Georgia; and as our
hotel Is now assuming metropoli
tan proportions, why not name it “Met
ropolitan?” Is it too much to say it
will be justly entitled to this distinction?
G.
I expect to show more Fancy
Groceries and sell at lower prices
than any House in Georgia. I am
buying low for the CASH, and ex
pect to sell ACCORDINGLY.

York and the Eastern Markets reg

A DANGEROUS POLICY.
Is to buv spectacles at your residence
from peddlers, as many of them are im
postors. I will pay a liberal reward for
information leaaing to the arrest of all
such men who claim to be my represent
atives. I positively employ no peddlers
and do not sell them my glasses. The
genuine Hawkes’ spectacles have the
name “Hawkes” stamped on the bow.
A. K. Hawkes.
All eyes fitted and the fit guaranteed

Good News for the Ladles.

second page of this paper, i: will bo

and genial “Bee Hive” people, have de
cided to remain in Americus for a while
