BARNESVILLE, Ga., Dec. 7.—The
Knights of Pythias of this city had
a banquet at the city Hotel Monday,
there being a full attendance, and a)
•even course supper. It was a most
enjegrable occasion. Preceding the
banquet there was an election of of
ficers for tho ensuing term, which re
sulted as follows:
°f»y. chancellor commander;
W. C. Jordan, vice chancellor; R. L.
Swatts. prelate; W. H. Mitchell, mas
ter of work; Pierce Hammond, master
at arms; J. B. Bush, Inner guard; Dr.
J. M. Rogers, outer guard; J. M.
Holmes, keeper of records and seal;
Emmett Lsngrod, manager of exche.
quer: J. A. McCrary, trustee.
This Is one of the most prosperous
orders here and new members are con
stantly being added to Its rolL
Trade Affected.
The recent drop In cotton has had
a demoralizing effect on trade In this
section and it is feared that the holt-
day business will not be what was ex
pected a few weeks ago. Until the
price of cotton began to go down busi
ness was of a most satisfactory char
acter. Collections had been fine and
there was a big trade In all lines.
Farmers are believed to be In a splen
did condition and many of them are
no doubt able to hold the balance of
their crop without Injustice to credi
tors or to business generally. There
Is a strong disposition to hold cotton
for several months at least for better
prices.
An Improvement
Work has begun on the building to
be erected for the Barneavllle Coal and
Limber Company on the lot opposlto
the freight depot. The lot belongs to
the Central of Georgia Railway Com
pany, but a lease has' been secured
on It. The office and warehouse will
be a wooden structure. 20x«0 feet and
the shed will be 100 feet long. Tho
new concern Is backed by several suc
cessful and enterprising citizens and
It will no doubt do a successful busi
ness.

The light against the J. O. Barnett
Co. of Amerlcus by Couch Bros., nhd

rision will be handed down today.
This case was brought up some
time ago by the Atlanta Arm They

upon the rights granted them In their
patent on horse collars. The defend
ants claim that the methods, employed
were not Infringements but legal. Tho
Couch Bros, have asked that the court
Issue for them an Injunction against
tha Amerlcus Arm. Both stdea have
bitterly contested the esse.

RECTOR OF 8T. LUKE’S,
Ashburnham, Ontario, Testifies to tho
Good Qualities of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy.
ASHBURNHAM. Ont.. April 18.
1903.—-I think It 1s only right that I
should tell you what a wonderful ef
fect Chamberlain's Cough Remedy has
produced. The day before Easter I
was so distressed with a cold and
cough that I did not think to be able
to take any duties the next day. as
my voice was almost choked by the
cough. Tho same day I received nn
order from you for a bottlo of your
Cough Remedy. I- at once procured a
snmple bottle, and took about three
doses of the medicine. To my great
relief the cough and cold had com
pletely disappeared and I was able to
preach- three times on Easter Day. I
know that this rapid and effective cure
was due to your Cough Remedy. I
make this testimonial without solicita
tion, being thankful to have found such
a God-sent remedy. Respectfully
yours. i u

A Successful Farmer.
RUSSELLVILLE, Ga., Dec. 7.—The
nMllty to succeed through “hog and
hominy" Is practically demonstrated
by Mr. William H. Evans, who Inst
week killed three hogs averaging 200
pounds. He prepared 200 pounds of
the pork as sausage, took it to Macon
and sold It at IS cents per pound en
tire. He has other engagements to
All there also, and Is well able to do so.
for he has three other hogs that will
net him about 200 pounds each, and
also two others, one of which will net
3G0 pounds and tho other 460 pounds.
These last two are “dnlsles’’ and wduld
do credit to a *stnte Fair. The former
six were only thirteen months old: the
latter two are two years old. These
large and thrifty porkers are the out-
como of full cribs and personal atten
tion. This Is only one of Mr. Evans’
side lines, for his butter Income yearly
Is $125 to $150 from three or milk cows,
and he and his wife sell $100 worth of
eggs yearly. One might think that he
gave no attention to* cotton, as he
drew so much from thesev but he
makes as much cotton ns his neigh
bors. He Is a clear proAt farmer and
an exemplar for any farm section.

dexton. Pure Mood makes It. Burdock
