lasted (with brief intermissions) from
about 9 A. M. until 4 F. w. A basket

neighborhood was well sustained.

cludes the old fair building, a fine half-
mile race-track and twenty-five acres of
ground. The building is a large two-
storv frame structure, about 00x100,
and is in an excellent state of repair.
The basement is now being overhauled
and converted into stalls for the use of
stock while in training. The entire
lot will be inclosed with a neat, sub
stantial fence, and other improvements
made from time to time until the
grounds and buildings are put in thor
ough re/pair. A county fair for next
fall is being talked of already, and if
the grounds can be gotten in readiness
by that time there is no reason why we
should not have it.
Mr. Hughes, a professional trainer
from Albany, Ga., has been engaged
by the Association, who will have
charge of the track and training stables
during the season. He arrived last
Monday, bringing two fine horses with
him.

Indeed, the enterprise was regar h-J

courageous spirits took the matter in

built the dam, made various improve

On May the 7th to the 10th there will
be in Atlanta one of the largest gath
erings in the way of calvary that has
ever met in the South. Itisthe inaugura
tion of an annual May festival to be held
in Georgia and is attracting much at
tention everywhere. This festival will
consist of all the military features of
cavalrymen, parades, marches, tilting,
etc. There are several large prizes of
fered and the contest will be one of
great interest. The largest is a SU00
prize and the companies that are to
contend for it are practicing daily, so
that the finest movements of the caval
rymen may be looked for. There will
be a grand coronation in the opera
house, which will be done in a most su

of unusual interest and will delight the
thousands who will be in attendance
from all parts of the South. Are you
going to Atlanta? If so go to the May
calvary festival on an excursion ticket.
Excursion tickets will be put on sale
fiom all points in the South, and it will
be a good time for those wishing to go
to Atlanta to go at this time. There

from Pennsylvania, Virginia, Tennessee,

A Street Railroad to Pearl Spring' Park.
In the preparations that have been
going on during the past week for the
union picnic of the Sabbath-scliools of
Newnan, perhaps one question has
been asked more frequently than any
other—how are we going? To those
who have vehicles the question is easilj
answered, but this still leaves a large
number with no means of conveyance,
who would like to enjoy the sight of
the children, misses and youths, whose
happy faces reflect the life within,
that is as yet free from the cares and
perplexities that come with later years.
At other times than the present,
there are those who would like to visit
the Park; for there is rest and quiet
ness to the thoughtful mind that comes
in the presence of this beauty of Nature
| —a sheet of soft, glimmering, rippling
' -water. Few towns have more genuine
: culture and refinement with moneyed
j citizens than this, who, though quiet in
’ their movements have a will and ueter-
mination that carries through an} plan
| upon which they have once reached a
decision. We have proof of this in

the coronation, and the parade will
all be well worth your time, and the
small amount paid to go to Atlanta.
This festival is under the auspices of
the Governor’s Horse Guard, and if any
information is required write to Cap
tain Milledge, Atlanta, and he will
gladly give it to you. One thing, how
ever/be sure to attend their great fes
tival. To miss it would be sacrificing
much.

with the thought that it is impossible;
for towns of less means and size have
accomplished this without loss to the
originators and those interested.
There are thinking business brains
who are as unselfish as they are gener

could, I am sure, devise some plan by
of the Park keeper, who will reside
there permanently. Seven or eight
private boats are now on the lake, and
six others are being constructed for
