BARNESVILLE, GA., THURSDAY, JUNE 29, 1899. THE CHHUTfIUQUH. The second annual session of the Barnesville Chautauqua will begin Sunday morning next, July and, at 10:30 o’clock. Dr. Lansing Burrows of Augusta, Ga., one of the most noted divines of the south will preach in the auditorium of Gordon Institute at 10:30 a. m. and lecture at 8 o’clock p. m. No charges are made for Sunday sessions and everybody is cor dially invited to attend. The program for the week will be just as advertised for the past few weeks, unless something un foreseen • h appens. Hon. M illiam J. Bryan will speak on Tuesday July 4th at 10:30 o’clock. All arrangements for his arrival and reception have been made, and Mayor Smith has heard from him this week. The impression which has been made that he would speak in Atlanta on July 4th is erroneous. He will speak in Barnesville oh this date just as first arranged. Great interest attaches to Mr. Bryan because he is a great orator and the matchless leader of the democratic party, but Dixon, Wend ling, Watterson, Gordon, and the other specialties and musical attractions of the chautauqua program are of equal merit as instructors and entertainers. There will not be a single enter tainment that can be missed. The Inter-county teachers institute will begin Monday al so. The program for the institute work will be made by the teachers. Two sessions will probably be held each day, at 8 a. m. and at 2:30 p. m. The people of Barnesville are urged to show every courtesy possible to the teachers. Tickets are now on sale. Season tickets are worth $2.50 and single admission tickets 50 cents for each entertainment. Where a family buys two season tickets, both of which are noil transferable, all children under 16 years of age will be given season tickets free. All children who are not entitled to season tickets under this plan, can secure them for $1.25. All sea son tickets will cost $2.50, whether bought before the chau tauqua begins or after it is half over. All are urged to buy their season tickets this week. There will be a great crowd and consequent confusion next week. With every non-trans ferable ticket one transterable ticket will be sold when desired. This is a Barnesville enterprise. It is for the citizens, men, women and children, to make it a success. It is not directly a money making institution. It is for education and entertain ment, but it will help Earnesville wonderfully if the people do by it as they should and will do. Let every citizen co-operate cheerfully and enthusiastically. The program affords an op portunity that only one city in a thousand ever has. A pro gram so brilliant in every feature has never before been pre sented to Georgia or the south. It is really marvelous. America can not get up a finer program, for it cannot be made. No city in Georgia, big or little, ever had such a week as Barnesville is going to have next week. Let everybody be in a good humor. Fill up and run over with enthusiasm. Do your best to make everybody happy. Open wide the doors of your home, let your hearts be overflowing with love, so that you can bless your friends and smile upon the bitterest enemy you may have. If you have been narrow minded and small hearted, burst asunder the bands and soar aloft, where you can breathe the atmosphere of real freedom. In fact, make the chautauqua the success it deserves to be, and you may ever after, Watch Barnesville Grow! Elder House Burned. The Elder House at Indian Spring was burned Monday night. This ho tel was well known to many people in Barnesville, for many of them have stopped there often during the past. The account of the fire as it appeared in Tuesday’s Telegraph, is as follows: “About one hundred guests were in the building but all of them es caped. Only two were injured, and they but slightly. All of the baggage was lost, however, the guests having no time to get into their rooms alter the fire was discovered. Most of them were scattered over the grounds about the hotel at the time, and as the flames spread like magic, the building being old and of pine wood, there was no hope of saving anything. The fire originated in the rear of the building, but the cause has not been ascertained. The hotel was separat ed from other buildings, consequently the fire did not spread. The nearest cottage was probably seventy-five yards away. There is no fire protec tion in the village. The guests were from all parts of Georgia, and some from other states. No insurance on the hotel. Stores to Close. All the stores in Barnesville will close during chautauqua week from io or 10:30 every morning until the exercises are over at the auditorium, say until about i o’clock p. m. Of course they will close in the afternoon in time for everybody to get to the evening exercises. This is just as it oughtto be. Entertainment This Evening. This evening a pleasant entertain ment will be tendered by Col. A. A. Murphey and his daughter, Miss Belle Murphey, to their guests,Misses Smith, Johnston and Willingham. Quite a number of young people have been invited and it will doubt less be quite an enjoyable affair. Pain has no show with Dr. Milas’ Pain Pill* An Enjoyuble Picnic. Avery enjoyable picnic was had Friday last at Potato creek. Jt was gotten up by Mr. and Mrs. J. B. P. Milner and it was quite a success. Several gentlemen went seining and caught a nice quantity of fish which was quite a feature of the fine dinner. The picnic was enjoyed greatly by every one present.

'* No wonder so many sales girls and factory girls and housewives suf fer from indigestion and constipation and bilious troubles. No wonder they are sub ject to the diseases of the delicate special organism of their sex. The wonder is rather that they can stand it as well as they do. But “a poor weak woman,” as she is termed, will endure bravely and patiently agonies which a strong man would give way under. The fact is women are more patient than they ought to be under such troubles. Every woman ought to know that she may obtain the most eminent medical ad vice free of charge and in absolute confi dence and privacy by writing to Dr. K, V. Pierce, chief consulting physician of the Invalids’ Hotel and Surgical Institute, of Buffalo. N. Y. Occupying this position for thirty years he has had a wider practical experience in the treatment of women’s diseases than any other physician in this country. His medicines are world-famous for their astonishing efficacy. The most perfect remedy ever devised for weak and delicate women is Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription. His "Golden Med ical Discovery” is the onl/“ermanent di gestive and nutrient tonic. The two med icines taken alternately, form the most perfect and successful course of treat ment ever prescribed for female troubles complicated with a sluggish, overwrought, nervous, diseased constitution. In severe constipation Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets should be occasionally taken with the others. They never gripe. You’ll Like it Its Purity & Richness Can Be Relied On. Yours to Serve J. H.
