In leav ing Brunswick, Mr. Dart carries with him the best wishes of a host of friends, who trust his future in his new home may prove bright and pleasant. Trim the Trees. There are a number of shade trees on our streets whose low and spreading branches make it inconvenient to navi gate the sidewalks of the Magic City in some places. At night they are espe cially annoying. Now is the time to trim them up, and we call the attention of our street committee to the nuisance. A dude walking the arm cluch with his best girl under these branches, is liable to loose his beaver and thus the thread of his story is broken and the romance of the occasion is ott times sadly inter rupted. Let the trees be trimmed. Madam Gaundy Says That trouble is about the only thing you can borrow these times. That newspapers as well as indi viduals should be consistent The man of too mncli policy rarely ever weilds much influence. That a good plan to get a few dollars in circulation is to pay your subscription to the Herald. That just in the nick of time she re ceived an invitation, to a Thanksgiving dinner. Mrs. W. W. Sharpe always looks after the poor and hungry. That if you can't think of anything to be thunkful for, be thankful that there’s plenty of people who can.' It is not to be expected that the anti-Cleveland papers, will be satis fied with the tariff reform proposed by the committee. They can't be pleased very easily. Mrs. C. A. Sheldon yesterday from a visii bama. Have you done anything to-day to prove that you are rhankful for the many blcesings you enjoy ? The birds will have nothing to be thank ful for to-day. Thousands of them will pass in their checks. - The Rifles marched out to the R. R. bridge at 1:30 p. m., to-day. We hope they will have a pleasant time. Blue Middlesex flannel suits, color guar, anteed, or money given back, $S.50 ajt Owens.’ 2tdlw i Several of our fellow citizens are wrestling with bad cold3. Moral: Buy your under wear from Owens. Strangers with and without money arc coming to Waycross every day. We like those with money best. at J. A. Crenshaw’s, next door to Lanier’: jewelry store. 2td Did you attend services to-day or did you go hunting? We hope you were thankful wherever you were. Perhaps the new tariff schedule has had something to do with the low prices of cloth ng at F. C. Owen’s. The pony show billed for yesterday after noon did not materialize. The hunters are out in full force this morning. The ammunition expended will be worth more than the game killed. The editors of the Herald are saving them selves for that game supper to-night. “’Ti3 distant lends enchantment to the view.” Just received a car load corn and oats, at J. A. Crenshaw’s, next door to Lanier’s jew elry store, 2td When you want reliable goods—goods that will fit well and wear well—“Best goods for the least money,” go to Frank C. Owens.

They go out in th fall and come back in the spring, or sooner if they are able. : The Davicn Gazette says: “If we were Congress we would pay no at tention to Bill McKinley but go right ahead and enforce the tariff.” If it vtere not for the fact that we’d lose our Grubb we’d wish he were Con gress. A traveler in the Malay peniusul says that the natives have in use there the smallest coin in the world. It is a wafer made from the resinous juice of a tree, and its value rs estimated ‘to be 1-10,000th of a penny. The democratic party is not a pro tective tariff party, and when the manufacturers and miners of Alaba ma ask it to maintain a protective tariff on iron ore and coal for their Just rcceiyed, forty boxes Florida oranges especial benefit they are asking too much.—Albany Herald. Surgeon Murray is reported in the Savannah Morning News as advis ing all refugees to purchase their own coffins before entering Brunswick, as the government will not pay the fun eral expenses of those who disobey. —Brunswick Times-Advertiser. Congressman Turner has asked Secretary Carlisle for a few days’ time in which to select a suitable can didate for Brunswick’s collectorship. And now those interested in the race can wait impatiently for Mr. Tur ner’s decision.—Brunswick Times- Advertiser. No one is foolish enough to think that Brunswick will ever have a re currence of her present trouble. Measures will be devised to rid her of the last vestige of anything pertain ing to infection. It cannot, be com menccd too soon.—Brunswick Times- Advertiser. The Third party people, of Worth county, have nominated Mr. Thos. Lippitt, as their candidate for ordi nary, to fill a vacancy caused by the death of the former inenmbent. The Democrats have their candidate in the field and E. L. Gardner is run ning as an independent. A Demo cratic primary should settle the mat ter. The third party in the south is much weaker than it was * last year, and in the west it is badly demoral ized. The troth of the matter is, most of the populist are good demo crats who hare been temporarily mis led, and when they see that their old party is fulfilling its pledges, they will return to it. They will be wel comed. > . Yellow Jack is making very scarce in Brunswick. The Brunswick people would like to have a regular freeze-out. Murders,assaults aud robberies are becomiug very frequent in Chicago.

The question on which the demo cratic party ir Congress will be a unit, is now in order. The great strike in the English coal mines is at an end, consequently coal has tumbled. Prof. Leo is in very bad health aud is not expected to live another twelve months. The Florida Yankee crop bids fair to be much larger than usual the pres ent season. The calamity howler has “let out” for other lands, but the avenger is close on his heels. Mr. Blount’s Havaiian report will be accepted by the people aud the government as correct. There can no longer be any doubt that Hon/ O. A. Bacon, is a candi date for the Senate. He has sub mitted bis platform to the Georgia Legislature. Eight hundred and eighty four bushels of wheat was harvested from an eight acre patch in Colorado the past season. The crop was grown by irrigation. The governor of Florida is “mad from taw” about the Corbett-Mitch- ell fight. The sluggers will probably be compelled to seek other grounds for their brutal display. It is said that the Czar is about to issue a ukase permitting Jews to live in those Rnsso-Polisb villages, which are owned by noblemen, in case these noblemen obtain guarantees for their - lawfnl behaviour.

They were camped under their wagon and had no shelter. Hon. II. H. Carlton has formerly announced himself as a candidate for Congress in the Eighth district which is now represented by Judge Lawson. A few democratic newspapers are still trying to play second fiddle to the republican press, but they are growing fewer and farther between every day. The town council of DelNorte, Colorado, has decided to close the barrooms at midnight and not to al low women to visit tbe saloons at all. DelNorte mast be a very moral town indeed.

An editor from Gree-ly went into Denver a few days ago ind dropped $225 on a faro gume. He then sought tbe police and tried unsuccess fully to get part of bis money back. It served him right.

Hawthorne, pastor of the First Bap tist church of Atlanta, that woman should uot speak in public, and adds that it would be better for the people if some men were not allowed to do so. In his younger days McIntosh liked to hear the ladies talk. Mrs. Henae3sy, mother oftbe late chief of police of New Orleans, is dy ing at a very advanced age. She is the last of the family. Her husband was killed in a street duel. Michael Hennessy, her newbew, was assassi nated in Texas, and her son, David, was murdered by Italians in New Or leans. His death caused the uprising which resulted in the lynching of thirteen Italians at the Parish prison three years ago.
