torday and last night in Macon, after
a visit to Cordele and Fitzgerald.
"Those two towns are developing
wonderfully," said Congressman
Hughes last night, “and nowhere in
South Georgia have I seen such evi
dences of growth, public spirit nnd
enterprise. The people seem to be up
nnd doing, ns It were, nnd alive to
every opportunity. I was present last
night at a bnuquet'given by the-Busi
ness Men’s League of Fitzgerald and
It was truly a remarkable occasion. I
had no Idea that people anywhere were
so wide-awake and stirring. Both
Fitzgerald and Cordolo are hustling
Jittle cities and It will not he many
years before they will take first rank
with the others of south and middle
Georgia."
Congressman Hughes declined to
discuss matters of political Interest,
but Intimated, that in the early future
he mlgh make a public talk on ques

tho sum of $10,000 and such additional
tho committee deemed tho condi
tion of the city would warrant for paving
said paving to be begun nt once nnd on
such streets as may bo designated by the

Alderman Wheeler cald he wanted to
get this before tho committee that it
may be included in the budget for tho

that it would require much time to get
the paving material here.
Tho resolution went to tho committees
on streets and finance.
Election and Appointments.
The council then-wont into an election

at tho registry window Is conspicuously
absent this season, although there is a

On January 14th a bicycle was
stolen from Mr. Henry Merkel, and
the fact was duly reported at polldc
headquarters.
Tho wheel was evidently kept out
of sight as It did not fall under the
eyes of tho detectives who kept
sharp lookout for It.
On Monday there wag before the
recorder a negro named James Cor
bin, charged with running over an old
negro woman on Poplar street, near
the market, the old woman being
thrown down by her dress becoming
ntangled or caught In the chain.
On tbo arrest of CorbJn the wheel
he was riding was carried to the po
lice station.
etectivo Smith looked at the wheel
and found It to be the one stolen from
Mr. Merkel in January.
Corbin could not pay the fine of fif
teen dollars imposed on him for dis
orderly conduct, the running over of

STORES HAVE BIG
CHRISTMAS TRADE
REPORTS FROM THE VARIOUS MER
CHANTS—JEWELRY STORES
HAVE DONE ESPECIALLY
WELL.
Despite tho apparent lack of crowds
the streets—doubtless due in part to the
weather—the merchants state that they
are satisfied with the present rush of
business, and are anticipating a much
hoavler trade today and tomorrow. They
also say thst this year the buying lx
more conservative than ever before, tho
people spending their money freely, but
with a critical eye for bargains, or fr~
thelr "money's worth." The Jewch.
stores in particular have had an unusu
ally good business, .and the proprietors
say that there lias been a large demand
for expensive goods, especially for Jew
cl nr.
The department and dry goods stores
report an excellent but not very largo
trade, saying that the warm weather of
tho last few weeks has not been espe
cially conducive to heavy buying of cloth
Ing material and the like. Tho clothing
stores have had fine sales of their small
er stock, such as ties, shirts, handker
chiefs and the like, but the deniaud for
suits has been somewhat off. It Is the
consensus of opinion, however, that tho
trndo this Christmas is fully up to that
