The North Chicken CholeraCure Com-
Tho other day a suffering citizen called
on Dr. Tom Colo to operate on a partly
defunct tooth, which had eaused him
much pain and unrest for a week or
more. Hedesired something done that
would afford him permanent relief, and
yet was loth to lose the tooth, because it
had been a mighty- good one in its day.
Til a twinkling Dr Cole extracted
the refractory molar, destroyed the
neive, fi'led the cavity with gold, re
placed it ; n the gum and sent the man on
hi- way rejoicing. At last accounts the
gum was healing nicely, and in a week or
so the tooth will be firmly rooted again.
It was a neat dental operation, and an
innovation upou the orthodox practice
that deserves to be mentioned.' Verily,
the world do move!
Newnan Sholud Do Likewise.
LaGrange will h-ld an election on the
third Monday- in July to determine the
question of issuing bonds for the pur
pose of erecting water works in that
city. No town the size of LaGrange
can afford to oe without fire protection
>*f some sort; and yet Newnan, with one
ihousand more population and with $1,-
500,' 00 of taxable property, is absolutely
at the mercy of the devouring element.
A tax of two-tenths of one per cent, on
this amount would be sufficient to equip
the town—the business portion, at least
—with a complete sy-stem of water
works;—or, It would buy a firsi-class
fire engine and all necessary appurte
nances for the organization of a tire de
partment. The money thus expended
would be returned two-fold in a few
years by tho dtcrease in insurance
rates alone, not to speak of the security
against losses by fire that the adoption
"f either system would afford to prooer-
t> -holders and tax-payers. Fully $250,-
000 is invested in property within a
stone’s throw of the Court- house, which,
in the event of a general conflagration
such as may occur at any time, would
be rbsolutely defenseless. In view of
these facts, the necessity for some sori
of protection against the ravages of fire is
no less urgent than apparent, and should
commend itself without argument.
It is simply a question i f enterprise, and
a matter in which every citizen ot New
nan is more or less interested. Every
town in the State, of equal importance,
has either a system of water works or a
fire department, and why should not
we?

There is something peculiarly sad in
the death of a little child a blight, as it
were, upon the tender leaflet ere it lias
unfe^ded; vet there is great comfort in the
assurance that our 1 ttle ones are forever
safe in the arms of the blessed Redeem
er, Gone from us, leaving in our hearts
an aching void that nothing but their
presence can fill; yet tlieir memories are
immortal. We see them, hear them,
have them with us^till. E.

GRAND JURY.
Messrs. C. J. Harris, J. D. Hunter, J.
D. Johnson, J. B. Cla^kand J. J. Hunter,
of White Oak, gathered all the little
boys of the neighborhood together last
Saturday and carried them on a fishing
expedition- They pitched their camp at
Hunt’s Spring, where the boys were or
ganized into squads and furnished with
seines. They were then turned loose in
the creek, and so successfully did they
beat the waters and scour the same that
long before the dinner hou* arrived they
had caught between thirty-five and forty
pounds of fine fish. Three were cleaned
and cooked on the ground; and w’hile we

The Band Concert.
The concert to be given at Reese’s Op
era House to night for the benefit of Me-
Pearl Spring Park Association.
The stockholders cf the Pearl Spring
Pa-k Association met last Monday alter-
noon for the purpose of receiving the
charter granted at the late term of our
Superior Court, electing a permanent
board of directors and officers, and con
sidering other matters of impo-tance in
cident to permanent organization.
The following board of directors were
elected: P. II. Brewster, W. P. Broome,
Jos. T. Kirby, Y. H. Thompson, H. C.
Fisher, J. A. Hunter, I. N. Orr, M. B.
Hamilton and J. B. Mount. At a meet
ing ol the directors, held subsequently,
Col. P. H. Biewster was elected Presi
dent and Capt. H. C. Fisher chos> n Sec
retary and Treasurer.
The contract for building the dam was
awarded to Mr. W. S. Norris, of Mere
wether county, ifho has already com
menced work upon tiie same and ex
pects to have it completed by the midi.le
of July. When finished the structure
will be fourteen feet high, insuring an
average depth of wate- at the dam of
eleven feet. A waste-way will be con
structed on the north side of the dam,
abcut four feet from the top, which will
afford a safe outlet for the overflow in
time of freshet. Mr.Norri* isconstruct-
ing the dam upon a plan of his own and
guarantees it for ten year,.
The pond will be stock--d with the
choicest varieties of fish obtainable, and
in such quantities as will insure a fat re
turn for the labor and expense incurred
its construction. By this time next
year it will be Newnan’s most attractive
and pooular resort, and a monument for
all time to the enterprise and fore
thought of the gentlemen whoconceived
and have carried into execution so stu
pendous a plan for innocent sport and
pleasure.
-as a matter of interest it may not be
amiss to state lhat the stock is now
worth 150, and noi-e for sale.
The “Little XVatf” Again.
Our citizens will remember that dur
ing the month of December, 1883. a little
child, only a few days old, was found in
the woods, about three miles f-om town,
and near the Griffin railroad tank. They
will remember thrt cold, hunger and
exposure had ravaged its little frame
and paled its cheek, having been for
probably two or three days thus left
alone by some cruel mother. Exposed
and alone in its helplessness, its feeble
voice was unable to c-y so lond as to ar
rest the attention of any chance passer
by. It was brought to town to be cared
for by the county; lint Mr. and Mrs. A.
E. Edmundson, whose hearts went out
in true sympathy for the waif, resolved
to rear it as their own. Although smiles
would play around the little one’s mouth,
and in its own way it seemed to desire
to bring as mnch sunshine into its new
home as possible, it never recovered
from the effects of the unholy act of its
mother; so, alter seven months of fitful
existence, dnring which time its adopt
ed parents did all-for it that human sym
pathy could suggest, it passed away, and
was laid to rest.
Go to the cemetery; turn to the right
as you enter the main gate and go up
the first avenue- Presently, you will
come to a neat little headstone of mar
