Columbus, Ga., Sept. 29.—The heav iest sale of new cotton this season was made yesterday morning by the W. C. Bradley Company, who disposed of 700 bales to the Columbus Manufac turing Company. The price paid was not made public. The big sale at the Bradley ware house has seriously depleted the sup ply of new' cotton on hand in Colum bus, which is the lowest for many years at this season. The mills are buying freely, evidently fearing a bullish market next month, and as the farmers are selling equally as freely, the mills are buying to prevent all the available cotton being sent aw r ay from Columbus.

There is many a rest in the road of life If we would only stop to take it, i And many a tune from the better land, If the querulous heart would w'ake it! Tj S’;e sunny soul that is full of hope, I And whose beautiful trust ne’er faileth, The grass is green and the flowers are bright. Though the wintry winds prevaileth. Botier to hope though the clouds hang low, And to keep the eyes still lifted; For the sweet blue sky will soon peep through When the ominous clouds are rifted! There was never a night without a day. Or an evening without a morning, And the darkest hour, as the proverb goes, Is the hour before the dawning. Better to weave in the web of life A bright and golden filling, And to do God’s will with a ready heart And hands that are swift and will ing, Than to snap the delicate, slender threads Os our curious lives asunder, And then blame heaven for the tan gled ends. And sit and grieve, and wonder. —M. A. Kidder. Picture frames made to order. Large stock of new pattern mouldings to select from. HOLLIDAY’S BOOK STORE. The Jeffersons could not have been otherwise than pleased at the recep tion given them here last night. It. was cordial and enthusiastic.

Too warm for whiskey, too cool for beer, there’s nothing in the weather to bring good cheer. And then there’s no beer or whiskey here. The football season is on, with the usual protests against its brutality by those who never played, and also a continuation of the sport.

Twenty-one bales Dougherty county cotton were brought, to Americus yes terday. The best market attracts, re gardless of the distance. The broken flagstones in front of the court house are being mended, and the unkept appearance of the promi nent walk is much improved. Americus’ cotton receipts will reach the 20,000 bale mark by tomorrow night, the end of September. Pretty good for a small town. Mr. J. M. Summerford, who was badly wounded In a pistol duel In Vi enna two days ago, is a brother of Police Officer Summerford. Manager Gortatowski, of the opera house, was highly pleased with last night's success, and says Americus will have other good ones. Yesterday's session of city court was a busy one, and the black con tingent thrown in the discard will augment the chaingang.
