CARPETS! RUCS! MATTINGS!
Some Beautiful New Styles Just Added to
the Large Stock on Hand.
You have heard a great deal about the advance on Carpets in
consequence of the McKinley bill, and the half has hardly been told;
but my opposition to a protective tariff leads me to do all that I can to
lessen the burdens it imposes, aDd I am determined to sell you
Carpets AS LOW AS YOU EVER BOUGHT THEM, REGARD
LESS OF THE TARIFF.
To enable me to do this I sell for CASH, and at MUCH
SHORTER PROFITS than I could do on a CREDIT. I will take
great pleasure in showing my Carpets to everybody.

When papa reads this he will learn

On Sunday morning last, Mr. Zac
Goss' hounds commenced trailing a wild
cat. Mr. Goss left them alone, and at
the usual hour went to church with his
family several miles distant- He return
ed home late in the evening, and learned
that the dogs wero still on the trail of
the cat, when be decided to go and bring
them home. He succeeded in finding
them about 0 o'clock, howling with joy
and almost exhausted, as they had been
on a hot trail for more than ten hours,
and just before Mr. Gobs arrived they
had captured and killed the varmint. It
is one af the largest wild cats ever seen,
as it weighed twenty pounds after hav
ing been torn up by the dogs.
Mr. Goss lives on the Kinccefoonce
creek in Terrell county, and is acknowl
edged as one of the best liunters in
Southwest Georgia, and Hs dogs have
the reputation of never losing “the
trail” when once fairly on it.
Whit la Good Baking Powder?
It is a well-known fact that carbonate
of ammonia is used by bakers in the
proparatlon of the finest anti most
wholesome bread and cake, and has
been from time immemorial. It is
among the oldest and at the same time
most healthful constituents of baking
powders. It is all evolved in gas by the
heat of the oven, and leaves no trace of
itself in the food, and it is this that
gives it its great value as a leavening
agent in the opinions of the physicians.

Mrs. Pickett’s Death,
The death of Mrs. Elizabeth V,
Pickett at her home in Americus yester
day was not all unexpected, since she
was a venerable age and in feeble health
for some time. Mrs. Pickett was widely
connected, and was a useful member of
the community. Her piety was sincere
and unassuming, and the fruits of her
charity will be the noblest monument
that can be erected to her memory. The
Tuies-Recordeh tenders Its sympathies
to the bereaved family, ren indlng them
that He who “tempers the wind to tbo
shorn Iamb" will not be forgetful of
them in this, their hour of bereavement.
“A11 tish they get that cometb to r.et,”
says Thus Tusser. He must have meant
the undertakers, who would bury you
any time with alacrity. Rut you don’t
want to be caught In their net, just yet
I'll bet; so cure your cough with Dr.
Bull's Cough Syrup.
A BLOODY TRAGEDY.
POWDER AND LEAD ARE USED WITH
TERRIBLE EFFECT
In Marlon County-Two Brother ln-l.aw«
Pall Out About a Road and the IteadlT
Pistol Plays an Important itolo In An
other Sad Tragedy.
A bloody tragedy was enacted in Ma
rion county yesterday afternoon that
shocked the whole community.
Very meager details were available at
a late hour last night, and many material
points connected with the affair are
veiled.
It seems that Messrs. Upton, father
and son, and Elder Upon and the Messrs.
Storey, one of them a brother-in-law to
a Mr. Upton, had some words about the
lino a road was to take.
Matters culminrted in both parties
drawing their pistols and opening up a
deadly fusilade.
One of the Storeys was shot and kill
ed outright and the other was fatally
wounded-
Tbe spectacle was an awful one; one
man lying dead on the ground and the
other in the very throes of death, while
the Tptons stood with smoking revolvers
in hand.
The scene of the killing is near Buena
Visja, in Marion county. All the parties
concerned with this deplorable affair arc
highly respectable and stand well in the
neighborhood where they live.
The coroner's jury left Buena Vista
yesterday to sit over the dead body of
Storey, and they may be compelled to
ascertain the facts about the death of
both, since the wounded man is not ex
pected to live.
Whwt Is Home Without Music'.'
Your home may bo richly furnished
and adorned, but it is not complete
without a piano or organ. Xotbing else
so beautifies and make home so harmon
ious and delightful. It costs, of course,
but think of the lasting pleasure and
benefit to those you love and live for.
But, be sure to get a good and musically
perfect instrument that will wear for a
lifetime. To secure this at smallest
price possible, consistent with high
quality, write Ludden & Bates Southern
Music House, Savannah, Ga. Tbe well-
known leaders In Southern Piano and
Organ trade. For twenty-one years this
staunch bouse has been making it possi
ble and easy for those of moderate
means to purchase line instruments.
Read their new advertisement in this is
sue and write them about it.
The correctness of the maxim “noth
ing succeeds like success” is well exem
plified in Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. The most
successful combination of alteratives and
tonics, It always succeeds in curing dis
eases of tbe blood, and hence its wonder
ful popularity.
