Mr. J. B. Mount.
Returned last Saturday from New
York, whither he went about four
weeks ago to purchase his fall and
winter stock of dry goods, and is
now busily engaged in receiving and
opening the same. He has bought an
immense stock and promises such a dis
play in the dry goods line as will aston

hard at work unpacking and marking
the goods as they arrive, and will soon
be ready to throw open their doors to

Thrilling' Adventure With a Snake.
On leaving the Masonic Lodge-room
last Tuesday night, Messrs. Orlando
McClendon, E. D. Fpuse, Tom Barron
and “Tim” Mitchell ran suddenly up
on a huge snake that was slowly wind
ing along the sidewalk in front of
Swint’s store. Tom danced a jig up a
flight of stairs, three at a bound.
“Tim’s” first jump landed him in the
middle of the street, and the next placed
him entirely out of harm’s way.
Messrs. Fouse and McClendon attempt
ed to pass each other and were wedged
together—the irresistible meeting the
immovable. At this thrilling juncture
a cotton string, with a small boy at
one end and a toy snake at the other,
disappeared around the corner.
Death of Col. J. L. Calhoun.
A telegram was received here Wednes
day afternoon conveying the sad intelli
gence of the deatli of Col. J. L. Calhoun,
father of Mrs. Geo. Jones, of this city,
which occurred at his home in Mont
gomery tiie same day. The remains
were brought to Newnan for interment,
arriving on the noon train yesterday.
The funeral took place at 4 o’clock in
the afternoon, from the residence of
Maj. George Jones, and was largely at
tended. Deceased formerly resided in
Newnan and was one of our most
prominent and prosperous citizens,
llis numerous friends in the communi
ty will be deeply pained to hear of his
death. The remains were'accompanied
from Montgomery by Mrs. J. L. Cal
houn, Mr. Thomas Calhoun and Mr.
Erwin Jones.
Deceased was 73 years of age at the
time of his death.
“He Doesn’t Want the Earth.”
This is the modest exclamation with
which our enterprising young friend,
Mr. I. P. Bradley, prefaces an interest
ing communication that appears on our
first page this week, but it should be
taken cum grano salis. He is not so
modest as to neglect an opportunity
for presenting his claims to the public
in the usual way—?’, e., through the
columns of Tiik Herald and Advek-
outpur of the mill for eight or nine
months past has averaged two tons, or
twelve tons per week. This has been
sold as fast as manufactured and the
mill is yet behind with its orders.
New calenders and a powerful rotary
boiler weighing eighteen thousand
pounds have been purchased and will
be placed in position in a few days.
Other new machinery has been secured
also, the whole costing between four
and five thousand dollars. The mill is
the property of Major U. B. Wilkinson
and cost originally between sixty and
seventy-five thousand dollars. It is locat
ed at Banning, on the Savannah, Griffin
and North Alabama Railroad, and the
recent unprecedented demand for the
products of the mill loads us to hope
that this may yet become a leading in
dustry in our section. Indeed, there is
no reason why it should not, and un
der the present efficient management
there is ever}’ inducement to believe
that it will. "When the new machinery
now being received is put up the mill
will be prepared to turn out a fine grade
of book, writing and inanilla papers.
They have their own depot, erected for
their own use, within a stone’s throw of
the mill. The entire product is han

A Bier Concern.
Now that the fall season is upon us,
and winter almost in sight, the people
will soon begin to cast about for the
best place to trade—aiul by the “best
place” we mean the store where the
best goods can be obtained for the
least money. Our merchants are all
enterprising, clever and well-stocked;
consequently, when we refer to the large
and elegant stock of fall and winter
goods now being received by Messrs.
Hardaway & Hunter it must not be un
derstood that we mean to make any
invidious comparison;—we simply de
sire to do justice to one of our largest,
most enterprising firms, who seek by
fair and legitimate* methods only to
keep their business prominently before
the public.
For several days past they haVe done
little else than receive and unpack their
new goods, which are arriving by al
most every train. Their stock of cloth
ing is now all in, and comprises perhaps
the most choice selection in this line
fliat they have ever carried. They
have suits rangiug in price all the way
from $5 to $25, and, to use Jim Lever-
ett’s expression, can fit anything that
wears breeches—from a Griffin dude to*
a South Sea Islander. They have also
a large and attractive variety of dress
goods, notions, etc., and other feminine
.specialties too numerous to mention.
Their shoe department is literally
bulging with fullness. They sell nothing
but the old reliable “Bay State” boots
and shoes. Indeed, they have handled
goods of no other manufacture for sev
en years past, and are the exclusive
agents for Newnan. Their present
stock comprises over twenty different
styles, and as an evidence of the-gen
uineness of the goods manufactured i
by the “Bay State Company,” every
pair of boots or shoes bearing their
camel’s hair, ladies’ cloth, cashmere, or
fine worsted of any kind, he was care
ful in each instance to get trimmings,
buttons, etc., to match. Consequently,
when he sells a dress pattern he can
furnish everything needed to finish it.
He has not yet received all his goods,
but those that have arrived are attract
ing considerable attention in fenunind
circles. One customer, who has been
trading heretofore in Atlanta, bought
a handsome black silk, for which shtp
paid only $1.50 per yard. Last season
she bought a similar pattern in Atlanta
and paid $3.00 per yard for it, and she
candidly admits that there is no
apparent difference in the texture or
weight of the goods. Another lady
bought an elegant plush jacket for
$30. Still anotlier customer bought
a richly embroidered box dress pattern
for $15 that could not be had in Atlanta ‘
for less than $20.
We might mention numerous other
instances going to show the disparity
that exists between exorbitant prices
and legitimate profits, as charged here
and in Atlanta, but the above will sufJ
fice for the present. Mr. Buchanan is
determined to place his goods where
they will be seen, and having been seen
and examined he is not at all dubious
as to the effect it will have. Primarily,
he has undertaken this venture for the
profit there is in it, of course; but if
other merchants here will unite with
him in trying to keep our people from
going to Atlanta for .such goods as he
proposes to keep, it will not be long be
fore Atlanta will lose her attractions
for this community—not longer, at any
rate, than will be required by ocular
demonstration to convince them that
they can do just as well here, if not»
better, and save the expense of a trip
to Atlanta, which in itself amounts to
a very neat profit.
He is very busy this week, getting Ins
goods up; but in our next issue he will
tell you exactly what he proposes to do.

Dr. J. T. Reese is authority for the

which the whistle is blown at every

Thus, it matters not if the engineer be
awake, drunk or asleep, alert or neg
lectful, the whistle is sounded at every
crossing. The contrivance is governed
in its movements by the. speed of the
locomotive, the alarm stops being set
after a careful computation of the dis
tances between crossings, going in
either direction. The invention has
not yet been perfected, and for this
reason Dr. Reese withholds the name
