Parker, whose record among our peo ple for the two past years stamps him as an earnest, zealous, faithful pastor and servant in the Lord’s vineyard. His constant labors during his stay among us evidence the fact that his chief desire is to do good, to make bet ter and to elevate the people. Likewise was the influence of his faithful wife, who, as a willing servant, was ever ready to work whenever and wherever a field or v opportunity presented—of that refining nature which rendered her stay with us profitable as well as pleasant. On Friday morning Rev. and r Mrs. J. R. Parker left Forsj-th. for Grant- ▼ille circuit, their new field of labor. May abundant success crown their ef forts to do good in that field.—Forsyth Advertiser. A Surprise Party. Last Tuesday evening several young 'pociety gentlemen of the town got to gether and concluded to give Prof, and Mrs. Daniel Walker and Mrs. Hattie Arnall a surprise party. Suiting the action to the word, each gentleman armed himself with a lady escort, pro cured a pound ot confections of one sort or another, and straightway laid seige to the hospitable home referred to. It is scarcely uscessarv to add that they were soon in possession of the premises and having things pretty much their own way, and, like most impromptu affairs, it was all the more enjoyable by reason of the delightful informality Srkich characterized the occasion. Excellent music, both vocal and in strumental, was lornished by Miss Jimmie Lou Thompson, Miss Morn Hall, Miss Lena Smith of Hogansville, and Miss Seals of Rome, who won the hearty applause of the. company by their charming renditions. The singing of Miss Seals and the playing of Miss Smith were especially admired. Refreshments were served in due season, which, merged with the “flow of soul” that had already been set in motion, comprised an entertainment of unusual interest and enjoyment, and one that will not soon be forgotten by the pleased participants. The Band Concert. Owing ta the inclemency of the weather and other miltiating causes, the attendance at the concert given by the Meehaniea’ Brass Band last Friday night was not so large as it would oth erwise have been, but it was sufficiently large to voice the applause which the performance so richly merited, and these evidences of appreciation were manifested in a way that left, no doubt as to the thorough enjoyment of every one present. ; The programme was a most attractive one, comprising vocal and instrumental music, recitations, etc., *and lasted about two hours. The band music was excellent; the instrumental and vocal solos, duets and quartettes, most ad mirably aad skillfully executed; the recitations, well chosen and happily rendered. Tim phantom oratory and amateur minstrelsy ot Mr. R. E. Simril was au unexpected departure frsm the dignifi ed exercises that both preceded and followed kis advent, but he sustained the different parts so well the house was kept in an uproar as long as he remained on the stage. The concert was repeated on Monday night, and from the two entertainments we understand quite a neat sum was realized. They richly earned every cent that was made, though, and had the weather been pleasanter would have done better. zie Dent furnished the music.

Perhaps one of the happiest events of the holidays was the marriage, on Monday morning, the 26th inst., at the residence of the bride’s mother in this city, of Miss Gussie Hollis to Rev. II T. Etheridge, of Pearson, Ga. The ceremony uniting these young lives was performed in the presence of a few friends, in a most felicitous and im pressive manner, by the Rev. Dr. Cal loway, of Oxford, Ga. Few young people start out in life under more auspicious circumstances. The bride ha# a large number of devo ted friends in Newnan, and is one of the fairest and most popular of our many lovely and cultivated young women, while the groom is a talented and promising young member of the South Georgia Conference. The Her ald and Advertiser congratulates Mr. Etheridge in thus securing so fittin a one of usefulness—consecrated as it if to the service of the Master. The happy couple leave to-day for their new home in Pearson, accompan ied by the best wishes of devoted rela tives and admiring friends.

After much puzzling a conclusion was finilly reached, and Col. L. P, Barnes was requested to an nounce the decision of the judges. Mounting a chair in the hall, midway between the phrlor^ he called Miss Willie Orr and Orin Clarke before him, and with a few appropriate remarks pre sented each with a prize as the tackiest boy and girl in the room. While there were several others deserving of “hon orable mention,” the committee being really at a loss to determine who were best entitled to the prizes, yet the cos tumes of those mentioned were so con spicuously' grotesque that they were finally voted prizes as the “tackiest” belle and beau of the occasion. About 9 o’clock Mrs. Annie Melson, who had assisted her little sister in pre paring for the entertainment, marched the young couples into the dining room, where a sumptuous repast was spread. It is needless to remark that this constituted one of the most enjoy able features of the programme, wlieTe, having given further evidence of their “tackey” manners, the young people separated for the night and wended t heir way homeward—and to bed. The “B. N.” Club Reception. The “E. N.” Club is a mystic social organization composed exclusively of young ladies, aad oa Tuesday evening lust aa elegant reception was tendered by the Club at the home of Mr. and Mrs. John S. Hollinshead, on Green ville street. Fully a hundred invitations were issued, and it has been already re corded as one of the numerous brilliant and successful holiday events that have enlivened our society siace the opening of the season. The committee of reception was composed of. Misses Fannie Divine, Pauline Faver, Ruby Ray, Kate An drews, Florence Wofford, Sallie Sim ril, Pollie Huen, Daisy Dews, Lula Stokes, Minnie Peddy, Margaret Her ring, Nannie Sue Hill and Mamie Sis- trunk, assisted by Mrs. Hollinshead, who performed this pleasant office so weil and so satisfactorily that the guests were made to feel thoroughly at home at the start, and entered into the enjoyment of the evening’s festivities with A zest that was pleasing to see. Extensive arrangements had been made for’the entertainment of the young people, and no detail was omit ted that could enhance their pleasure or the general enjoyableness of the oc casion. The supper was superb, and served in a style that betokened the qiost elaborate preparation. The young ladies of the “E. N.” Club have good reason, to be proud of the success of their maiden effort in the social line, and still further cause fpr gratulation that it has been eclipsed by no similar entertainment this sea son. Among those f-rom a distance who graced the occasion with their presence were Miss Cade Sparks of Rome, Miss Mary Goodwyn of the Sixth district, and Messrs. Amicus and Talmage Pen dleton, Will Heard, AY ill Havis, Will Kirby and Heard Dent, of Atlanta. COMING AMUSBMENT3. Adelaide Randall. The charming Southern prima donna, Adelaide Randall, will give one of her splendid productions of comic opera at the Opera House to-night, assisted by her excellent company of lyric artists. The charming opera entitled “Madame Boniface,” adapted from the French by Col. Milliken, will be presented. The following complimentary notice is reproduced from a late is.sue of the Natchez (Miss.) Democrat: Last night a tail' sized audience greeted Adelaide Randall and her bright little company on ner first, ap- companion for . life which can but be j g«nee here ti™ that could possibly have been attracted to the opera bouse on such a night. The opera of “Madame Boniface” is one that lias never before been pre sented here and it is one ot the best ever heard. In the title role Miss Ran dall is all thateou d possibly be wished for. Her voice is superb ami her acting most, natural throughout, and the hear ty encores she receifed last evening were evidence enough to convince her of the hold she lias uppn the music loving public of this cat j. Too much cannot be said of her support. It is simply magnificent and no doubt the little prima donna is proud of it. Miss lloyl is particularly goo i and her solo in the first act was received with thun dering applause. ■Secure your seats at Reese’s drug store.
