On the 19th of January last, during circus performance in Scnoia, Harry Schley, Sandy Smith, Lewis Wiley, Daniel Hood and others became involved in a rectangular row and came near stampeding the audience. They were subsequently apprehended for inciting a riot and warrants were issued for their arrest. The trial was set for Saturday last, before Judge Powell, but owing to the absence of important witnesses was postponed until Monday next. The prosecution will be conducted by Coun ty Solicitor Whatley, Messrs. W. W. Hardy and J. W. Shell, of Senoia, ap pearing for the defense. Messrs. A. C. Willcoxon and A. M.

Mr. Hartsfield did not enter this contest, but it will be gratify ing to his Newnan friends to know that he took a high stand in all his classes, bearing off the first honor in one class of thirty-five and the second honor in an other class of sixty-five.

Owing to the warmth of the evening most of the young people left the parlors for the cool of the verandah and adjacent grounds, w here it will perhaps never be known just how many romances were inspired.

Miss Bannie Heflin, of Loeust Grove, Ga., one of our most charming com mencement visitors, returned home yes terday. Mrs. D. P. Woodroof left last Monday for Salt Spring, where she will spend several weeks in quest of health and pleasure. Among tlio«o who entertained during commencement week none were more lavish in their hospitality than Mr. and Mrs. M. G. Keith. They had as guests during the week Miss Marie Phillips of Savannah, and Miss Kate Connally, Miss Ophelia Dominick, Miss Maggie Lynch, Miss Lula Lynch and Miss Pearl Lynch of Atlanta, whose popularity was estab lished from the day of their arrival, and who con tiibuted no little to the social pleasures incident to commencement season. The entire party, with the ex ception of Miss Dominick, returned to Atlanta last Saturday. Miss Dominick remains, fortunately, aud will spend some time in the city as the guest of Mr«. Keith. Mr. and Mrs. Geo. A. Broom were lil>- eral entertainers, rlso. Their hospitable home was crowded with visitors during the entire week, and they would have taken ir. a dozen mere sweet wayfarers if they had called. Misses Glenn Camp, Berta Camp and Lou Camp of Puckett Station, and Miss Ida Huggins, were among those entertained, and during their stay the Broom home was one ol the most popular resorts in town. The social event of the week was a grand hop and sociable on Frio’ay eve ning at the Virginia House, tendered in honor ol our visitinar- young ladies. Though hastily gotten up, it was carried out most successiully, and like all im promptu affairs was all the more enjoy able by reason of its unexpectedness. The yonth and beauty of the town were aggregated there,in addition to numerous visiting belles and beaux, and the merry devotees of Terpsichore were never in happier mood. The moon shone almost as bright as day, the atmosphere was de lightfully cool and pleasant, and the occasion was altogether propitious. The music was furnished by a local band, and was excellently rendered. About forty couples were in attendance. Among those from a distance we noted the presence of Misses Maggie Lynch, Lula Lynch, Pearl Lynch, Kate Connel ly, Ophelia Dominick, Clara Thomas, Jessie White and Lon McKinley, of At lanta; Miss Marie Phillips, of Savan nah; Miss Nell Bush, of Franklin, Ky.: Miss Cynthia McDowell, of Griffin; Miss Berta Milton, of Marianna, Fla; Miss Mattie Harper, of Cave Springs; Miss Ella Gena Beckcom, ofBullard’s Station: Miss Ruth McLaughlin, of Union Point; Miss Zana Sturdevant, of Dadeville, Ala.; Miss Annie Davidson, of Green ville; Miss Mary Lou Williams, of Lu- thersville; Miss Mattie Briscoe, ot Se noia; Misses Willie Elder, Myrtie Har ris, Mary Lon Harris, Jimmie Harris, Emma Hunter and Yeta Hunter, of Tu- • riji: Mra A If Bostrom, of Nashville.

I have tried a number of physicians, but without receiving any perma nent benefit. Among the number were one or two specialists. The medicine tury applied was like firo to the sore, causing intense pain. I saw a statement in the papers telling what S. S. S. had done for others similarly afflicted. I procured some at once. Before t had need the second bottle the neighbors could notice that my cancer was healing up. My general health had b*er. oad for two or three years—1 haa a hacking conga and spit blood contin ually. I hed a severe pain m mv breast. After taking six bottles of S. S. S. my cough left me. and 1 grew stouter than 1 had been for several years. My cancer has healed over all bnt a little epot about tho size of a half dime, and it is rapidly disappearing. I would advise every one with cancer to give S. S. fi. a fair trial. Mns. NAIs'CY J.
