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? STEAM ENGINES. WE HAVE OX HAND SOME SPECIAL BARGAINS IN STEAM ENGINES.

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.
