“Progress On and Upward” Our Motto.
The taste of the people must be met, and the New York
Store folks are the ones equal to the emergency.
Not Only This, but Prices
Will figure largely this winter. Bearing this in mind, it has
ocen our main desire and highest ambition to buy cheap and
to sell cheap, underbuy and undersell. With this idea burn
ing in us, we have WAGED WAR, FOUGHT BATTLES
and came out CONQUER.ORS, and will show a stock of
goods, in every line, at prices the like of which has never
been known before. All we ask is that you look and see
and price.
Out Millinery Department
Is even more complete than ever. Mrs. Thurman’s excellent
taste will be readily recognized, as she in person made all
the selections. * While in New York, she attended several
large openings, and is “up” on the very latest things of the
season. The ladies are cordially invited to visit our prac
tically new rooms and see what it is impossible to tell in
such short space.

SHOT AND ROBBED-
Mr. 0. L. Welch Severely Wound
ed by Burglars.
Last Wednesday morning a report
reached McDonough to the effect that
Mr. Odolphns L. Weloh, of Sandy
Ridge district, had been robbed and
shot at his home the night Indore.
The most authentic repott >1 the oc
curence we have been able to get is as
follows :
After supper last Tuesday evening
Mr. Welch went over to a neighbor’s
house on a matter of business, and re
turning home noticed the front door of
his store stauding partly ajar.
Without any suspicion of danger and
thinking some member of his family
was within—the store house standing
only a short distance from his dwelling
—he stepped up and started to enter.
No sooner had his foot touched the
door sill than he was caught by a large
muscular uegro and thrown violently
down. The negro then placed the
muzzle of a double-barrel shot gun he
fore his face.
Mr. Welch thiew up his left hand
just as the uegro fired, thus diverting
the shot from its intended aim, but re
ceiving the entire charge, instead, in
h-s hand.
A few of the scattering shot cut sev
eral locks of hair from his head.
After the shot the negro who had
made the assault with the aid of a con
federate proceeded to take what money
Mr. Welch had on his person together
with what was iu the money drawer,
aDd made their escape. The amount
thus obtained was in the neighborhood
of $150.00.
As soon as assistance arrived, Mr.
Welch was carried to bis residence and
a physician sumtnoned.
Upon examination the wound was
found to he of such a nature that am
putatiou of the hand was necessary.
A negro answering to the name of
Babe Wood has been arrested on sus
picion, and many believe him to be the
guilty party.
Last reports are to the effect that
the shock to Mr. Welch’s system has
been so great that fears are entertained
as to his tecovery.
Has Resigned.
After a pastorate of four years at
this place Rev. M. F. Duncan, the
beloved Presbyterian minister, has ten
dered his resignation, which has been
accepted.
Mr. Duncan lias not accepted work
elsewhere yet, and will take a short
season of rest before again entering
upon pastoral duties.
While laboring in our midst this rev
rend gentleman has drawn to himself
a large number of personal friends
whose best wishes will follow him, no
matter in what portion of tbe Master’s
vineyard his labors may lie.
Tbe church has not decided upon
Mr. Duncan’s successor as yet, but we
learn there will be an effort made to
secure the services of Rev. W. E. Do
zier.
A Nicely Rendered Programme.
The Children’s Day observance at
the Baptist church last Sunday after
noon was, as we predicted, a perfect
success from every stand point. The
superintendent’s talk was appropriate
and well timed ; the music, both vocal
and instrumental was well rendered ;
the recitations by the little folks, the
address by the pastor, the prayers, in
fact the whole exercise was such as to
hold the attention of the large audience
present and win from all a hearty com
mendation. As a result a liberal
contribution was made by those present
to the missionary cause.
IMed of Typhoid.
Mr. Wm. Moseley, a young man of
much promise, died Tuesday, at the
home of his mother, near White House,
of typhoid fever. He leaves a widowed
mother aud several brothers and sisters
to mourn his loss.
Peace to his ashes.
Proud of Him.
Col. John L Tye, of Atlanta, spent
Sunday in the city. John Tye is a j
typical son of old Henry, and none
have witnessed his ascendency to the
top of his chosen profession with more j
gratifying pride than his numer
ous friends hete
Another Good Citizen.
Mr. W. 11. Reed and family, of Stan

New Methodist Church.
The question of a new Methodist
church for McDonough has beeu set
tled. The building committee has been
appointed and empowered by the
church to begin the work at once.
As everyone knows, a new church
has been sadly needed for a number of
years. The present building being
about seventy years old, lias become
very uncomfortable in winter, and is
absolutely dangerous in its present con
dition. Of course it is not intended to
bui'd one that will be either costly in
price or elaborate in design, but as
good as can be bail for the amount of
moucy in sight. It is hoped that the
new one will he comfortable and neat.
The undersigned subscription commit
teo have guaranteed (to the building
committee) the full amount of their
subscription lists, and on the promise
of some members and ft tends (who
have said they would contribute, but
have not yet said how much) have
guaranteed an amount in excess of
their priseut subscriptions. It is hoped
therefore that these friends and mem
bers will be pretty liberal.
It has been the policy of the com
mittee not to be too urgent in their re
quests for donations, but simply to state
the case aud let the donations come
from a cheerful heart and in accordance
with how the donots felt as to the Lord
having prospered them.
Those who have subscribed, or in
tend to subscribe, can baud the amount
to either of the undersigned at any
time, it is hoped that ail the money
will be paid by November 15th, and
that the church will b i finished by De
cember 15th.
