Little Maggie Hooten Dead.
Ou last Monday morning little Mag
gie, daughter of Mr. aud Mrs.
S. M. liooten departed this
life, after a short illness, with
typhoid fever. Her death was a
surprise to all, as she bad not been
considered dangerously ill. but early
Monday morning she was taken with a
conjestive chill, and ere the sun had
reached its meridian the sleuder cord
that hinds to earth had been severed
and her pure young soul had winged
its way to the Creator, from whence it
came.
Maggie was a bright, interesting
child, and the hearts of her little school
mates and friends are filled with sad
ness, now that her cheerful voice, and
merry laugh is heard among them uo
more.
Her remaius were interred at Beth
any, where a touching services was per
formed by Rev. J. A. Jackson,
llest sweetly, thou casket of clay,
beneath the garlands of sweet scented
(lowers woven by the loving hauds of
playmates until on that future day
you shall c->me forth with the light of
the jewel, that now glitters in the
Master’s mansion, shining forth with
heavenly beauty from thine eyes.

Ou the morning of the 23rd iust., at
about three o’clock, the store house of
Mr. J. W. Clarke, at Stockbridgo, was
destroyed by fire. All his household
goods wero also destroyed. The loss
was partly covered by insurance. This
is the second loss of this kind sustained
by Mr. Clarke in a year, lie has the
sympathy of his many friends in his
misfortune.
J. W. Culpepper and a party by the
name of Gray, while under the influ
ence of whisky, broke into the freight
room of the E. T. V. A G. lly., at
Locust Grove, last Saturday night, and
took therefrom several barrels of bran
dy that the revenue officials had left
there for the purpose of having ship
ped to Atlanta. They were discover
ed in the act, and now languish in
Fulton couuty jail. It’s another case
of much whisky and little wit.
One of the very best and most popu
lar firms of Jackson is the Carmichael
Co., whose attractive advertisement ap
pears in this issue of The Weekly.
It is composed entirely of live, young
business men, full of energy and enter
prise, who keep square up \*jth times
and have in a short while built up a
most excellent trade. A glance at
their prices will give an idea of some
of the fine inducements they offer.
They propose to make it to the inter
est of all who go to Jackson to trade
with them. Read what they say and
call ou them.
The knowing ones are beginning to
whisper it under their breath, empha
sizing it with sundry nods of the head
and adding by way of parenthesis,
‘•do pray, don’t say I told you,” that Cu
pid, sly old scamp, has played havoc
with the hearts of one of Atlanta’s
bravest and McDonough’s fairest, and
the consummation of his scheme will
bring about the same result tiiat has
followed all of his former efforts in
this directiou from time immemorial.
If it should come about “pray don’t
say I told you.’ ’
It was the pleasure of The Weekly
editor to speud last Monday in the five,
progressive city of Jackson. The hard
•imes seem to have no effect upon this
plucky buisness place, and new stores,
residences, etc., continue to make their
appearance in all directions, while
everybody moves with an air of energy
and push that impresses one most fa
vorably. We were not only courteously
treated, but received much encourage
ment in a business way, and in the near
future will have much more to say of
Jackson and her many advantages.
The Methodist pulpit at this place
was filled last Sunday morning and
evening by the pastor, Rev. J. K. Ros
ser. H's sermon at eleven o’clock set
forth the docirine of the Methodist
denomination in regard to the “Observ
ance of the Lord’s Supper.” At night
his subject was “Man’s personal respon
sibility to a personal God.” Each of
these efforts of our beloved brother,
showed deep investigation, and were
delivered in a touching and forceful
raanuer. Owing to the fact that the
farmers are very busy harvesting their
crops the meeting wa.s not protracted.
The Smith-Etheridge Co,, that thor
ough-going, wide awake firm which has
always been the business life of Jack
sou, make their annual annouricemen t
for the fall trade in this issue of The
Weekly, with $ large double column
display. They continue to lead the
trade for a large territory around, aud
need no word of commendation from
us. When they announce bargaius, it
is sufficient to simply say that they
always have the biggest and best.
They especially solicit the Henry
county trade. Go to see them and it
will profit you.
