Horse Thief.
A little bullet headed nigger,

for citizenship appeared here yes
terday with a horse which he want
ed to sell cheaper than cost be a
considerable margin. In order that
he might reflect over the marked
down^irice he held for the animal
he was jailed, and it soon appeared
his title was not any more clear to
the horse than “to mansions in the
skies.” His name he says is Bob
Mills, but he seems to be a cham
pion liar and wa had better hold in
our credulity for future U9e on this
matter of veracity. He seems to
have been a special pet of enterpris
ing deputy sheriff, J. M. Reynolds,
for he had him early in his charge
conducting him kindly to the Hotel
de Burke, having provided him
with a shining pair of bracelets in
lieu of woolen pulse warmers.
THE CALLAWAY-HURST WEDDING.
A Popular Yoong Couple of Waynesboro
arc Happily Married.
There was only standing room
at the Baptist church on Tuesday
evening last when at 7 o’clock Miss
Lessie Hurst stood by the side of
Hoo. W. R. Callaway and the two
were married by the ritual of that
church.
The morning clouds hung heavy
overhead and the rain descended in
a iight sprinkle threatening a longj
continuance. Bui, as if in tender
regard for the bride the sun came
out before the decline ot day and
the stars overhead looked out at
night with sparkling eyes without
an obscured ray. The atmosphere
was balmy and refreshing and all
things were propitious for the hap
py occasion. Already had the
church been beautifully decorated
with flowers and the ever grace
ful and dark green bamboo vine
The organ at the South end of the
church was embowered in a mass
of blooms and the verdure of rare
plants, and the organ’s tones stole
out, as it were through a forest of
green with perfume.
The large and graceful chrysan
themums that stood out in grand
profusion everywhere lent a flood
of glory to the scene, looking from
the front eutranee. The scheme of
color was green and yellow for the
decoration. In the ceremony the
tableau would have adaed to it the
soft white of organdies and silks,
blending harmoniously with the
green and deep cream yellow mak
ing a picture of rare beauty for the
eyes of the guests.
The young and handsome Miss
Lessie Hurst, one o the most love
ly any and popular ladies of our
city, the daugh'er of Mr. and Mrs
Chas VV. Hurst, is the bride that
we are to see in this tableau. The
family of Huret are among the old
est in our county dating back to
revolutionary days prominent in
the citizenship of Burke through all
these years.
Mr. Wm R. Callaway, the groom,
is a Georgian, for many years a cit
izen of our city and a practicing at
torney here, tho his native county
is Wilkes. His is also one of
Georgia’s old and weii known fam
ilies. His father, Key. B. M. Calla
way, is a distinguished divine of
Wilkes county, a county celebrated
for some of the finest people In all
of Georgia from its earliest days.
Hon. Wm. R. Callaway is one of
those young men who makes friends
by scores, and from his amiable
manners, natural good heart and
refined nature deserves them. He
was twice appointed solicitor lor
the county court of Burke.
One of the finest audiences that
our city can furnish began to gath
er an hour before the time of the
ceremony at 7 o’clock p. m. showing
the interest taken in the young peo
ple who were to pledge themselves
on this eventful day,
Speaking of decorations the home
was as profusely ornamented with
fol’age and flowers as the church.
The double parlors had for its
design of color white and green.
Here, masses of white chrysanthe
mums gave a lovely contrast with
the verdant foliage festooned from
the wails. The large dining room
was decorated ir. yellow and white
without foliage, but magnificent
yellow flowera wiih streamers of
ribbons.
Ail the fine turn-outs (and Way-
nesbro has no equal in Georgia in
that line according to population)
were flashing through thesireets as
the shades of evening drew on, car
rying guests to the church.
As the hour approached the ush
ers, Messrs. R, C. Neely, H. H. Per
ry, C.W. Skioner, S. Beli, F.M.Cates,
and W. M. Fulcher anticipating the
arrivals were at the church for seat
ing the guests. In a short while
there was only standing room. A
very brilliant array of dresses ad
ded to the scene when all the guests
were seated; tor the ladles appeared
generally in evening costume,many
being invited from the church to
the mansion to a reception and
wedding supper.
A littie past seven o’clock a pro
cession of carriages arrived with
the bridal cortege. Previous to the
comiDg of the bridal party Mrs. An
nie R. Munnerlyn who presided at
the organ entertained the guests
with voluntary selections which
gave a romantic sentiment to the
occasion and prepared the guests to
appreciate more fully the ceremo
ny of a solemn wedding occasion,
and when the party wa3 form
ing in the vestibule a more
than ordinary ze9t was with the
audience. When at last th u wide
front doors were thrown open for
the march to the altar all eyes were
turned in that direction.
The wedding march that has in
vited so many to the place where
vows are sealed by the ordinances
of the church, was sounded and the
procession began.
The ushers in pairs as follows,
Hon. R. C, Neely and Judge H. H.
Perry; Ex-mayor Sim Bell and C
W. Skinner; Hoo. F. M. Cates and
Capt Wm. M. Fulcher moved up
separate aisles, crossed as they
reached the canopy and took
places on the right aud left. Then
followed the attendants singly up
the different aisles. First, Judge
W, A. Wilkins, Pres. W. E, Jones, Vice-Fres
W. H. Walters, Cashier.

Geo. O. Warnook and Mr. L Favar
moviDg down the aisles met and
took the central place of tbehalfcir-
cle to be found. After them at an
interval of ten paces in measured
! steps came Miss Annie Burton, and
Miss Josie Parnell, who, crossing in
front of their attendants, took
places on the right and left of them.
They were followed by Miss Annie
Burke with her attendant Mr. G.
Metz McCathern. In regular order
then came Mr. R. C. Hurst and Mr.
C A. Duncan at same interval: Miss
Fannie Gresham and Miss Caro
Price; Miss Ellen Callaway with
Hon. Julian Fulcher; Mr. James H.
Whitehead and Mr. W. Chandler;
Miss Alice Richards and Miss Bes
sie Walker.
This completed the half circle
facing toward the canopy. Follow
ing alone came Miss Sallie Joe
Hurst, sister and maid of honor,
who took her place on the light ot
the altar. Now came the bride od
the arm of her father who marched
to the altar from the left aisle, and
was met by the groom, accompa
nied by his best map, Lieut. M, Ous-
ley Fuicher,receivc-d the bride elect
on his left arm as they faced the
audience, his groomsman standing
by his side while the maid of honor
took the left of the bride.
The tableaux was completed as
the two ministers (he Rey. B. M.
Callaway and Rey. W, A. Wray
rose from the front row ot seats lac
ing the bridal pair, and hardly a
lovelier scene could be imagined.
In solemn voice the Rev. W. A
Wray prayed a fervent prayer.
The organ in subdued tones filled
the church with scarcely audible
melody. The ceremony of Ihis oc
casion was the new, unusual ritual
of the Baptist church. There was
no promising save that implied by
the presence of the bridal pair be
fore the large audience to join
themselves as one in holy matrimo
ny. Not even a yea or a nay was
asked from either of them. Not a
name was calied, for their names
were in the contract of license to
marry issued by the laws of the
country. The minister having told
in solemn voice what their duties
and obligations to each other w’ere,
asked the two to join their right
hands. As they stood thus instruct
ed he solemnly pronounced (hem
man and wife and they were forev
er joined until separated in life by
death.
A prayful benediction ended the
impressive ceremony and after the
veil was drawn back from over the
face of the bride by her maid of
honor, the happy pair lead the go
ing out of the church in reverse or
der of coming, only eac h grooms
man with his bridesmaid went out
doubly to the right and left. The
ushers -passed out singly as they
came, the first being the last to go
out.
The bride never looked more
beautiful in her life. Sne wore a
splendid white siik bridal costume
in train with a long bridal veil that
covered her whole figure like a
mist. The maid of honor wore a
beautiful organdy in pear! which
distinguished her from the lovely
organdy gowns of the olher brides
maids, which were elegant white
materia! with yellow. Each carried
yellow bouquetts of chrysanthe
mums. Ihe ushers and groomsmen
were in full evening suits.
The bridal bouquet of the love
liest iillies of the vaiiey, were the
handsomest ever seen at any of our
distinguished ceremonies. It was a
picture of graceful and exquisite
beauty.
From the church to the wedding
feast a hundred or more guests
went and the groom and his bride
received them. Congratulations
were earnestly shoivered on them
As a test of their popularity there
was displayed 172 presents, all love
ly and many very costly.
The wedding supper was served
elegantly and it was eDjoyed by ail
with a keen relish.
In time to meet the train from
Augusta going West the bride and
groom bade a good night to all and
departed. They will go lor a few
days to Atlanta and then continue
an extensive tour North, probably
to last three weeks or more.
With friendly regard The Citi
zen joins in the best wishes for
their lasting happiness, and a hear
ty bon voyage for the wedding tour.

E. SPERLING,
WAYNESBORO, GEORGIA,
My what a difference. Ten months
ago you started out fill* ot hopes
and good resolutions. Your resolu
tions were soon gone, but your
hopes were great and prospects
were fine. You planted for ti n bales
of cotton to the plow, which you
expected to get 10 cenN per pound
for. Six hundred dollars for your
cotton crop to say iiothlug of corn,
Deas, potatoes, watermelons and
other small crops. In other words
you thought you would make some
thing like fifty “roeka” per month,
besides having most of your pro
visions at home. No wonder you
were light-hearted end whistled
merrily as you stepped lightly be
hind the plow that turned the fer
tile soil that was eo sure to bring
you in such a handsome income.
That’s what made you sing—
‘Got no money but I will have
some.”
But there was no use of a man
doing so well, stinting himself and
family, when you could get what
you wanted and pay for It when
you sold your cotton. So you went
to »own and told the merchant how
much cotton you were planting and
how much cotton you expected to
make. The merchant drew up a
little paper, got you to sign it, and
then you could get anything you
wanted just like you had the money.
And you bought some things that
you could have done without, but
you wanted it and knew you could
pay for it and you got it. But alas
for you, it all went on the book of
fate with another 25 per cent, on
the regular cash price. And now
your crop is gathered and your
prospective ten bales has come
short by three bales and the ex
pected 10 cents per pouDd is off 25
per cent and your ether crops are
short. In fact everything seems to
be shrunk up except your account
and that is twice as much as you
thought it was, and you hnd your
little cotton )crop hardly equal to
the emergency, to say nothing of
the new buggy and nice furniture
and a hundred and one other things
that you had planned to get 4o
make your wife and children hap
py. •
Thus your hopes that budded so
brightly with the leaves in tho
ppring have also faded and fallen
with them, and you find yourself
with just a little money and a lot of
of experience, both of which will
greatly benefit you if you will use
them in the right way It is not
the man that makes the most mon
ey that succeeds, but the one that
knows how to spend it. Be oure
you spend each penny where it will
buy the biggest values.
The Cash Concern submits to you
a few’ prices to consider before you
buy, and if after careful comparison
you find that you can beat them we
advise you to do it, but if you can’t
find better values for the money w 7 e
will greatly appreciate your patron
age. We want to show you what
we wili do.

are the leaders of low prices,” “we
