The reason we walked so funny

There is many a new “wrinkle,”
so to speak, in the matter of la
dies’ kid gloves. It is the proper
form now to have the gloves two
sizes larger than the hand. This
will obviate the necessity of en
deavoring to ram a half-gallon
hand into a pint glove.
It is now stated positively that
the Bainbridge, Cuthbert and Co
lumbus railroad will be built.
About sixty hands were to begin
work on it last Monday. A short

There was a slight mistake in

A “count in disguise” was

people by his feats, which were
remarkable.

A bachelor friend request us to

Matrimonial.

This gentleman is a candidate
for re-election to the oflice of
Treasurer of Terrell county. Mr.
Laing has served the people faith
fully in this capacity for several
years,and if re-elected he will con
tinue to discharge the duties of
the office to the entire satisfac
ion of all.
An aceident.
Mr. Wornie Bigslow cama very
near happening to a serious acei
dente on our streets yesterday.
While driving through the streets
he lost his balance, 1t see¢ ms, and
fell out backwards on his head
and neck from his spring wagon.
We could not learn how serious
the result before going to press,
bat it is to be hoped that he will
be up and allright in a day or
two. He was unconscious for a
while, bat afterwards was able to
be taken home.
- What is Dawson? "
’ It js a little strange, but never
theless true,that when advertising
circulars are printed a boy is hir
ed and told to scatter them over
the town,he only scatters them on
the streets on which are situated
the business houses. This is the
only part of the town that is light
ed, and if a stranger comes here
and walks over this part he thinks
he has seen Dgwson. We venture
the assertion that when the most
of the male population speak of
Dawson this is the part in t.eir
minds. Bat this is not all of Daw
son by a good deal. The man
that patiently walks over Dawson
will be ready to rest when he
reaches his starting point. Stran
gers who wish to see Dawson
should go out among the residen~
ces, the colleges and the manufac
tories. In such a case they would
have their eyes opened as t) the
size and importance of Dawson.
Dawson is a “git up and git” lit
tle city. ; l
Bereaved.
It is with sorrow and deep sym
pathy that we announce the death
of Mrs. N. E. Lowrey, wife of Mr.
J. W F. L,wreyof oar city. ‘The
deceased has been suffering for
several weeks with pain in the
head,but not till last Sanday had it
become so violent as to ¢ use seri
ous apprehension and baffle the
skill of the attenling physiecian.
Mrs. Lowrey was about forty-six
years af age, a consistent member
of the Methodist Chureh, a fond
and affectionate mother and a lov
ing wife. She dies in the noon
day of life,missed and mourned by
a large cirele of friends. We ex
tend our warmest sympathy to all
of tha baraawal, anl reccommend
t) them that Fountain of merey
that is promised to all weary and
heavy laden souls. The deceased
was buried in the city cemetery on
Wednesday at 10 o’clock, the pas
tor of the Methodist ehurch, Rev.
P. S. Twitty ofliciating.
: Rev. P. 8. Twitty.
The time is drawing near for
the annual meeting of the South
Georgia Conference, and the mem
bers of the church at this place are
wondering who will preach for
them another year. We think
we express the sentiment of
the entire community when we say
that the conference ecannot do
b tter than return the present
pastor, Rev. P. S. Twitty. Mr.
Twitty is a good man, an earnest
worker and an able preacher, and
our people would ail be glad to
welcome him among us another
year. The Conference convenes
in Savannah the I7th inst.
The Suaday-schooi Association.
The Terrell County Sunday
senoel Association econvened at the
Baptist eliureh in Dawson last
Sanday morning. Dr. H. G. La
mar was elected president of the
body and B. C. Ad.ms secretary.
The sabject of discussion: “The
bost methhd of gatting onr young
people in the Sanday-school, in
teresting and retaining them,”
was ably discassed by N. \WW. Do
zier, .A. Quillian and others.
The next convention will be held
in Dover on the sth Sunday in
March.
Thanksgiving Day in Dawson. |
Thanksgiving day was not very
generally observed in Dawson.
Some féw celcbrated by going to
the Methodist chureh and hear
ing one of Rev. P. S. Twitty's able
sermons, others by witnessing the
rat show and the performance of
the contortionist, others by liber
ally patronizing the wheel a for
tune and still others by imbibing
freely in red liquor. None of the
houses suspended business, and
most of the clerks observed it by
selling goods at cost
Death.
On Thursday last Mr. David
Bigelow, aged about sixty years
died of consumption at his home
about two miles from town. M.
Bigelow was a consistent member
of the Baptist church, a devoted
husband, a kind father and a use
ful citizen. He leaves a large
family and many friends to mourn
his death. His remains were in
terred at the burial groundsat
Sardis church Friday afternoon,
’Rcv. B. W. Davis performing the
last sad rites.

- Still people pass through going
to Florida. :
There is still a little sickness
in the land.
More rain, mixed with a little
cold weather.
- Crying babies and cold weather
are almost incompatible. |
Mr. Lee Jaues, of Albany, was |
in our town Friday last. |
The next very important elec
tion is for baliff of the Third dis
triet. |
Mr. James Dozier, of Dougher
tye county, was in our town the
other day. |
The time is almost here when l
there will be a general moving
among farm hands. i
We learn that Mrs. J. R. Lee is
quite sick at this time. We hope
she may make a speedy recovery.
Thanksgiving day was not ob
served in our town-—from the fact
that we had nothing fine enough
to eat.
Col. W. G. Simpson is making
another settlement on his very
valuable body of lanl,aboat a mile
South of this place.
Judge Williams says that if
“matches are made in heaven it
takes him a long time to find out
what part he is to play.”
The darkeys say that meat has
got cheap enough for them to eat
two “rashers” at a meal, provided
the “rashers” are not too thick.
Mr. George McLain is now pre
paring to put his saw mill in op
eratin again. He will be ready
to saw in two or three weeks.
In regard to Mr. Bellflower's
age, which appeared in the Jouvg-
NAL last week, we wish to say he
is 75 instead of 85 years of age.
Mr. Andrew Walls .informs us
that he made sixty-one bales of
cotton, and plenty of cora to do
him next year, with six plows;
pretty good for this year.
Mr. J. F. Kennedy killed a wild
hog the other day and showed us
one of his, the hog's, tusks. It
measures about 8} inches long
Who can beat that in the line of
tusks?
When we heard that Mr. Cleve
land was elected, presidant our
first impulse was to write to him
and ask for a payingappointment,
but after seeing that he has or
dered his secretary to burn all let
ters asking for appointments, we
hardly know how to approach him.
Mr. J. W. McMillen informs us
that he has made this year, with
two plows, 19 bales of cotton, 700
bushels of corn, has gathered 100
bushels of ground peas, has plen
ty of ground peas in the field to
fatten his hogs and will make
plenty of meat to do him next
year. Who can beat this with two
plows?
We once heard of an old Justice
who, when under the influegyce of
rye juice, married people pretty
much after this style:
“Mid rainy. cold and stormy weather
I join this lad and lass together;
Let none but Him who rules the thunder
Put this lad and lass assunder.”
Well now, to our mind, the above
form of maraiage ceremony would
entirely do away with divorce
\suits in our courts.
Death.
Last Monday Mr. Jas Ken- ‘
drick died at the residence of Mrs. |
Jas. West in this city of paraly
sis. Mr. Kendrick was ahout 82
years of age, and was the father
of Dr. W. C. Kendrick and Mrs.
Jas. West of our town; his remains
will be interred in Webster county
to-day with Masonic hotors.
The Oyster Supper.
The oyster supper given by the
ladies’ missionary society last
Friday night was not very liber
ally patronized, owing to inclem
ency of the weather. There were
exceedingly few out, and we doubt
‘they made but little more than ex
penses. The quilt was not dispos
ed of, owing to the small attend
ance. We trust the ladies will
have better success the next time.
Judge H. S. Bell. ‘
This gentleman announces him
self in this issue a 2 candidate for
re-election to the office of Ordinary
of Terrell county. Judge. Bell
has served the people faithfully 1‘
in this capacity for the last eigit
years, and we could not do better
than re-elect him. o
| Don't think that your business
| will run itself. “He thkat by the
plow would thrive must either
hold or d=iva.”
All He Knows,
We were out last Monday even
ing hunting news, .and meeting
that clever and urbane gentleman,
Dr. R. G. Jones, we plied omx re
portorial gimlet with the follow
ing result:
“Good evening, Doctor.”
“Good evening, sir.”
“Know anything?"
“Yes.”
“What is it?”
“It has rained.”
“Is that all you know?" ;
“No.” J
“What else ?” . |
“Every intelligent farmer in
Terrell county is sowing oats.”
(Right here the reporter wishes
to say in way of parenthesis that
the Doctor was not sowing his,nor
had he sown any.)
“Know anything else?”
“No.”" :
“Ever expect to know anthing
else?”
Nt
The reporter then thanked him
kindly for the valuable informa
tion given and quietly withdrew,
wondering how the Doctor had
managed to find out so much.

POISON
In the blood is apt to show itself in the
Spring, and nature should by all means be
assisted in throwing it off. ‘Swiit's Spe
cific does this cffectively. It is a purely
vegetable, non-poisonous remedy, which
helps nature to force all the poison or taint
out through the pores of the skin.
Mr. Robert A. Easley, of Dickson, Ten.,
writes, under date March 10, 1884: “I
kad chills and fever, followed by rheuma
tism, for three yeurs, so that [ was not
‘able to attend to my business; had tried
“almost every kind of medicine, and found
no relief. A friend recommended Swift's
Specifie. 1 tried one bottle and my bealth
began to improve. I continned until I had
taken six botiles, and it has set me on my
| feet, as sound aind well ac ever. 1 recom.
| meand it to all similarly afilicted.
Letters from twenty-three (23) of the
leading retail druggists of Atlanta sa?'. un
der date March 24, 1884: “We sell more
of Swift’s Specific than any other one rem
edy, and three fo ten times as much as any
other blood medicine. We sell it to all
classes, and mapy of the best fawilies use
it a 8 8 general health tonie,
I am sure that Svift's Specific saved my
life. T was terribly pcisoned with malaria
and was given up to die. Swift's Specific
relieved me promptly and entirely. X
think it is the greatest venedy of the age.
C G. SPENOER,
Sup’t Gas Works, Rome, Ga.
I have-known and used Swift's Specifie
for more than twenty veats, and have seen
more wonderful resuits from its use than
from any remedy in or out of the Phurma
copeia. It ie a certain and safo antidote
to all sorts of Blood Poison.
