It is well enough to remember that at the convention whjch will be called by the Mayor for the purpose oi nominating the town officials for another year, it will also be necessary to nominate three new members to fill vacancies which will oc cur on the board of education. We put the public on notice that they may be .thinking the matter over and making their selections. Has He Gone There to See Jndge Mershon 1 Health officer Brunner went up to At lanta last night He left quietly, and hut few were aware that he was going to the capital. Much interest is felt as to what he will say to Jndge Mershon in case they meet, as is very probable. It is understood that the doctor will en deavor to show up the bad features of the state board of health. It was in a discussion on this bill that Mershon, it wll be remembered, attacked Dr. Brun ner.—Savannah. Press. If Dr. Brunner is looking for Judge Mershon, it is not apprehended that he will have 411 y trouble in finding him. ; Judge Mershia Luries iu Wa ycross Judge M. L. Mershon- will locate in Waycross for the present, and has open ed his law office in the Wilscn block, near the court house. Law business en trusted to his care will be projer'y look ed after.

That “Jag.” A young man living not very far from Waycross has paid the city a visit every day this week looking for “dat jug” he ordered, and it ha3 not yet arrived. If he had of pat in this time at work in stead of walking to Waycross in search of “dat jag,” he would probably be bet ter able to present bis aged mother with a new gown on Christmas day.

This and That lor the Herald by “Dab.** A gentleman was standing on the plat form of the S. F. & \V*.

This is a great m’stake some j*eopIe make. The hotels were nil filled with strangers and visitors yesterday. TheJIIcndd is the official organ of the city of Waycross, tbc county of AVaro, the county ofCImrlion, the county of Camden and of the Democratic party in this heat. The Herald is in the swim and it is here to stay. Mr. AV. G. Sntlivc, representing the Sa vannah Press, is in the city to-day and paid the Herald a pleasant visit. Mr. Sntlivc has been with the excursion to Gainesville, Fla. AVc arc glad to learn that Air. AlbertsonV little boy, who had his leg broken by being run over by a bicycle, is improving. It is not true that the AA T ay cross orange on exhibition at the postofiiee was raised from George A me rich’s fruit stand. Frank 0. Owens says that lie is satisfied the tariff bill will pass and that is the reason he has taken the tariff off of clothing. F. O, is determined to keep in the lead. Our Camden county friends are especially invited to come to AVayeross. Our mer chants are prepared to offer special imluee- Tbis weather suits everybody, but the ioe man. He would gladly trade a block of ice for a load of wood, but nobody wants to swap.. F. C. Owens sold a large line of clothing last Saturday to parties living seventy miles west of the city on thcS., F. & A\ T . K. It- They all come to AA T aycross and bny their clothing from Owens. How many young men and boys would be wil.ing to join a foot-ball club and see if AA’aycross can’t lick tlio rest of Georgia at one of the finest games in existence.- Send your names to the. Herald, boys, and I’ll help you along. Letali the old chronic “kickers join, it will keep them in trim when the good wife has washing day and he has to sit out in the wood-shed and eat hard tack and drink cold water. Rev. AV. H. Scruggs Visits His Old Home. Rev. A\ r . II. Scruggs, the beloved pas tor of the Baptist church at this place, will leave to-morrow morning for a visit of a few days to his old home in Brooks county. Rev. Scruggs’ health has been bad for some time, and he needs a little rest and change of scene. Mr. Scruggs has not seen his father for several years and we hope he will enjoy his visit and come home invigorated and strengthened. Thv show windows on Plant avenue arc crowded with Christmas toys of ev ery imaginablo kind, shape and des cription, which reminds us of the near approach of the holidays. Waycross Oranges. Some very fine sweet oranges have been raised in AVaycross the present sea son. Mr. J. AV. Mallon has several trees loaded with the luscious fruit as also Mr. J. D. Smith and perhaps others in the city. The orange seems to flourish bet ter here than in some sections oi Georgia further south of us. Almost anything the way of fruits or vegetables does 11 on AVare county soil. AA r e live in a favored section and should be thankful, happy and contented. Madam Grundy Says That as the “Lolder-jp of trains” the AVaycross belle captures the Christmas fruit cake. Tli at if h . fellow with a big income can’t stand to be taxed, how die deuce can a fellow with no income at all pay his taxes. That she has been informed that those little “foot rests” she so much admires in the Episcopal church arc not intend ed for “foot rests” at all, but to kneel upon. That she does not believe a rumor to the effect that the abundance of quail in .this section is due to the organization of the AVaycross gun club. That the love that is dumb until it speaks on a tomb-stone is of very poor quality. That sometimes silence convinces more thoroughly than argument. That the man who never makes any mistakes never does anything worth re membering. That no man ever rise3 too high to take a tumble, and the higher the tum ble the harder the fall.

Rqcd’s notice of houses to rent- The Savannah Morning News now reach es ns in time for breakfast. ' > The Herald lias been crowded with job \\T»rk the past week. AA’aycross society is at a loss for amuse ment just at this time. This is certainly a gloomy day, but some days must be dark and dreary. AVaycross never kicks about schedules. She lias them all. Tom Grace and AVill McNeil killed fifty- one birds yesterday. Pretty good for buck shots. The Herald loves to brag of the climate of Waycross, but this is not our dav for brag ging. AVaycross is so orderly that our police force is getting out of practice. Holiday goods at C. E Cooks. Don’t forget tlic place. Waycross merchants sell more clothing than any two towns of its size in Georgia. Football has not yet’ readied^ AVaycross. We have many things to be thankful for. A large number of arrivals were registered at the Southern and Phoenix hotels yester day. . Don’t forget that our columns are open to any gentleman wishing to talk about n’cipal matters and local politics. AVare county formers are not bothering their bands about cotton, but when it comes to corn, potatoes and vegetables they are ii the swim. Competition in markets bring about good l>eef, but the market men stand by the prices, all the samee, all the samee. Mr. Scruggs is absent from the city but we suppose there will be prayer meeting at the Baptist church to-night if the weather permits. . We hear that the St Ilia Club gave a ger man last night, bnt our devil says he went to preaching, and having depended on him for this news item, we are left. Later The dance did materialize and report says it was a very pleasant affair. MAX ISAAC, TVlerebant TaiW? A Fine and Fashionable 1Lot of Goods Always on Hand.

Speak ing of the naming of the Magic City Mr. Reppord said: Col, Haines called the place first Road-way Crossing, but he dropped from it “road” and “ing,” re taining the “cross” and “way” and the cross has been here ever since—The cross of Jesus Chnst. Mr. Reppord is enthusiastic worker and all our peo ple love him. The Dowuing Company Mores. The Downing Company has moved its headquarters back to Brunswick. The Company will, however, continne a branch office in \\ r aycro33. Mr. Down ing states that he has had a pleasant time here and speaks highly of our town and our people.
