THE MACON 'TELEGRAPH: SUNDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 28, 1894. LOOK AT THE FACTS ABOUT OUR STOCK OF FURNITURE, ETC. Everything fresh and new. Everything selling as nothing of the kind ever sold before. WHY ? Because fhe makers had their wits about them and the price could scarcely be lower with* out dropping out of sight altogether. They’ll last almost as long as the house they are taken into and you will never tire of the design. Are your circumstances such as compel you to guard your expenditures closely ? Are they such as make you think twice before you buy once ? Do yOU Want goods at priC6S in tOUCh With the times ? Come and see for yourself.

MaJ. lUuson said It was uufortunate that the tn- dereata of this country, especially ot Ithe riouth. were arrayed one against Ithc other. Thh time had come when the Warmer realised that there Is pot autn- ‘cl nt diversity of tnduatry to support Idlveistned agriculture. It has been the general cry for years past that ktie farmer Is poor because he raises too much cotton. This Is not true, hut ft 4s true that they raise too much K tton because they are too poor to Ise anything else. The farmer cannot 'sell his corn because there Is too tittle demand for his surplus. They can t false com. because no bunk will «4- vv.nr.. money In the spring to ra*ae 'o eren-w: corn. The trouble t* there its no diversity of Interests; there la 0<t sufficient demand for what he fuse*. If this country produced other supp les that tt needs, If It had facto- iles ind made all It needed—the ehoei Ittie people wear, their hat*, their Cloth-s end the Implement they wa^- rtf.U would create a demand for diver- Sited crops.

It is only fair Co draw attenflbn to an exhibit that only yesterday assumed shape and focm. but which Is now one nt the Dretticst and daintiest things ot the fair. Messrs. Choloener and Wing field. the general agent and Southern representafive of fhe famous high grade Ctroam Yc-xst Baking Powder, made by the well known nnd long established Arm of J. Munroe Taylor of New York, arrived on the gouml a little late, but serin* the value of this exposition as a medium for advertising their baking powder and the Gold Medal Soda, they turned with a will and succeeded In turning out a really beautiful exhibit, which the ladles will And on the second floor of Floral Hall.

Butts has built a pyramid—a pyra mid of coal—Just outside the main en trance to Floral hall. Here can be found samples of the greatest coals on the market—Wooldrlch, Jelltco, MoKtevallo. 'Dona and four or five cheeper varieties of coals, which Mr. Armand Butts sells at his Macon coal yard at prices ranging from SI a too up. Every one knows Armand Butts. His name ta guarantee for good coal and those who buy from him know that they get the lowest prices and the beat coal for that price . The buggies manufacteured by the Jackson Buggy Company, and which ore now on exhibition tn the old dining hell, have two great adv-nnttiges. In addition to being high-grade' vehicles and made of the best material and by the beat workmen, they are all home made, and with this recommendation every Georgian should look on them with favor. The exhibition Is a hand some one and Mr. T. B. Kenard. fhe representative In charge, takes plea sure and pride tn showing it off. The exhibit of. the Chattanooga Plow Company at the extreme end of Floral Hall should be seen by every farmer In Gtorgla. This company took nine ot the highest awards at the .World's Fair. Matinee races wree given again yes terday at I o’clock. While they did dot attract as much attention as on the previous day, a number of horse men were there to watch, the work of the bones. Two trots and a running race made up tho speed programme of the day. but as"thc races were entirely Informal no records were kept. The horses did some fast work, however, and they all gave ovHcnco of being In splendid form. Tile deadhead list Is the only thing that at all mars the smooth success of tile fair. The manager* were unusual ly liberal, but notwithstanding this fact many people seem to have abused the privilege, nnd It was decided yes terday to overhaul the entire list. A card from tho directors Is published elsewhere notifying all holders of passes that they will be taken up at the gates Monday unless countersigned by Secretory Knapp. A number of young lady students from Athena were at the fair yester day. The fair students of Lucy Cobb loaned those of Wesleyan tn seeing the sights of the Dixie Fair and the day was quite pleasantly spent by all. The regular races begin Monday nnd open up a great week of racing. The full speed programme for Monday's races will be published In tomorrow’s Telegraph. The Indications are that each event wilt be well Ailed and that, too. with some of the fastest horses In the stables. All the animals are con sidered In good form, and their work for several days past tit* been entirely satisfactory to their owners. It Is gen erally predicted that the state record will be made on the Macon track thla year. The track Is considered at least two seconds faster than ever before and this ts .going to belp some good homos win new fame. "OLD GLORY’* Comes Out to Great Advantage at the Dixie Interstate Fair. Well to the front ta all matters where enterpri* ts seen to the best advantage always come Mosers. A. & N. M. Block.
