The members of the colored Metho dist church have been engaged for sev eral months past in raising a fund with which to make some needed repairs upon their church building, and we un derstand that the fund amounts now to about $800. On Sunday last the Will ing Workers Society, composed of the female members of the church, reported a special collection of $105, which will be added to the fund, and the male members have promised to double this amount by the first Sunday in June.

The strawberry and ice cream festival given by the Ladies’ Memorial Associa tion last Tuesday evening on Major and Mrs. Geo. Jones’ lawn was a brilliant success, socially and financially. The entertainment began at 6 p. m. and last ed until V0, and was well attended by both old and young. The receipts were $33. This sum will furnish 1 loadstones for eleven of the soldiers’ graves, and it is the desire and expectation of the asso ciation to raise enough during tho sum mer to complete tho work. It is a noble charity, and the ladies should be warm ly encouraged and assisted: in their praiseworthy undertaking. The next entertainment will take jfiaee during the coining month. A Deserved Promotion. The act of tho last Legislature re-es tablishing the office of State Geologist provided for the appointment of two assistants. The State Geological Board, which is composed of tho Governor and Stato House officers, mot in Atlanta on Tuesday last to select the two assis tants required by law. Among the nu merous applicants was Prof. E. T. Whatley, of this county, and it will be a matter of interest as well as pleasure to his numerous friends to know that he was unanimously chosen by the board for one of the offices. The other applicant selected was C. C. Anderson, of Pulaski county. Prof. Whatley graduated from the State University in 1880, and shortly thereafter was elected princqml of Hearn Institute at Cave Spring, Gn., a position which he has held continuous ly evor since. Under his management the school soon took rank among tho foremost institutions of loarning in the State, and there is no question but that its usefulness and efficiency would be still further extended wero he to re main at its head. His selection for the offico of assistant to tho State Geologist is ail honor most worthily bestowed, and that ho will demonstrate tho full est capacity for tho work to bo done, no one who knows him will doubt. His promotion is regarded with feelings of the liveliest gratification by his Coweta friends, and by no one more than The Herald and'Advertiser. Children’s Day at tho Methodist Church. What is known as “Children’s Day” in tho Methodist church, South, was inaugurated by tho General Conference four years ago. The dosigti was to de vote one Sabbath exclusively to tho in terests of tho children, and thus turn the attention of tho church more particularly to the young, and to give hn opportunity for contri butions to be made to destitute Sunday- schools. This day was observed last Sabbath at tho Methodist church in Newnan, where a largo congregation assembled, consisting mainly of childron. An ap propriate programme had been ar ranged, which was carried out with few alterations. After some excellent singing, and prayer, Master Jimmie Goodrum and Miss Tiny Claire Parks recited some beautiful versos especially prepared for the occasion, entitled, "If Wo are True.” Next came a responsive Scripture reading, after which Mrs. D. B. Wood- roof read quite impressively a ppem se lected from the Sunday School Visitor, the children’s paper, entitled "The Children’s Day." The pastor, Rev. C. C. Cary, then de livered an excellent short sermon, his subject being the "Call of Samuel,” in which he showed that God called chil dren into his. service, and used them in carrying out His designs. He illustrat ed these points by striking Scripture examples, and others of modern times. Then followed another short Scrip ture reading, when the usual annual collection for destitute Sunday-schools was taken up, which concluded the ex ercises. Annual Commencement ot the City Public Schools. The approaching commencement of the city public schools is already begin ning to excite considerable interest, and from a brief scanning of the programme we are assured that the exercises will be of a most interesting and elaborate character. Thursday, June 20, will be commence ment day. The senior class have invited Dr. H. C. Morrison, of Atalanta, to preach the commencement sermon on Sunday, June 22, and have asked Dr. I. S. Hopkins, President of the School of Technology, to deliver the commence ment address. The graduating class consists of seventeen members, who will complete the high school course and re ceive diplomas. Their names are as follows: Nannie Sue Hill, Lillian Dent, Jennie Hardaway, Sallie Simril, Daisy Peddy, Willie Orr, Viola Brown, Bernice An drews, Maude Arnold, Lela Hornsby, Bessie Orr, Ella Goodrum, Ruth Powel, Annie Alexander, Fannie Leigh, Al bert Pendergrast and Ernest Powel. The junior class, or the class of ’91, will give their entertainment at 10 o’clock on Thursday, June 26. They have chosen Mr. W, P. Gearreld to de liver the class oration, Miss Bessie Ar nold to read the class essay, Miss Nellie Johnson to recite, Miss Ruth Hill to re spond to the farewell address of the se nior class, and Misses Laulie Ray and Neila Lou Walton to render piano mu sic. Judge W. R. Hammond, of Atlan ta, has been invited to deliver the ju nior address. In this entertainment the senior class will be represented by Miss Sallie Simril, who will read the seniors’ farewell, and Miss Lela Hornsby, who will transfer the mantle to the junior class. The full programme will be published in a later issue. m Tha Community Mourns. The death of Mrs. Dr. J. II. Hall, which occurred on Tuesday night, last, after an illness of about two weeks, was one of tho saddest events we have over been called on to chronicle. When we went to press last week it was confident- ly(hoped that her recovery was only a question of a few days; but, unfortu nately,, her Illness took nn unexpected and very serious turn, and all the med ical skill that could be applied to the case was found to be unavailing. Tho ruthless hand of death could not bo stayed, and on Tuesday night nt 11 o’clock her gentle spirit passed away. The funeral services took place at the cemetery on Thursday morning nt 10 o’clock. Dr. Henry McDonald, pastor of the Second Baptist church, Atlanta, and an old friend of the family, was re quested to conduct the exercises. The members of the Baptist church desired the funeral services to bo held in tho church edifice, but the docoased had made a special request of the family that her romnins bo carried quietly from the home to the grnvo and there interred with ns little demonstration ns possible. All idea of ostentation or dis play was repugnant to her nature, and for this reason no sorvices wero held in the church. At tho appointed hour tho remains were taken from the home which had so long known the power and influence of this godly woman and borne revorontly to their last resting- place on curth, followed by a largo con course of friends and neighbors. The pall-bearers were Messrs. W. C. Snead, A.,I). Freeman, Goo. W. Ramey, Sr., I. N. Orr, T. G. Farmer and A. B. Cates. Aftor a fervent and touching prayer by Dr. McDonald and tho rending of appropriate Scriptures, ho spoke briefly but improssivoly of tho lifo and charac ter of tho deceased, who had always boon noted for her strong faith and powor in prayer. A brief but fooling talk was made by Judgo A. D. Freeman, also, nfter which tho assembled throng joined ini singing the hoautiful hymn, "Some Sweet Day.” Tho benediction was them pronounced by Rev. II. S. lleos, of Tu rin, nnd the services ciosod. What an inspiration nnd liolp Mrs. Hall was to her husband in his great life-work will never bo known in this world, while her intluenco for good in the community as well ns in the home circle is beyond nil cstimnte. Tho mem ory of her beautiful, consecrated, Chris tian life will bo a constant liolp' to many n wife nnd mother who is strug gling hopefully to perform her duties in lifo. The stricken family have tho syuqKv- tliios of the entire community in their affliction. ODDS AND ENDS. A WA11N1NU TO MH.

The Mucon livening News of Wed nesday last says: According to appointment, Hon. J. B. Hunnicutt, candidate for Commis sioner of Agriculture, will spoak in Ma con next Saturday, In view of that fact the following special from Rpme may be interesting, as showing what the people of Macon may expect: "At the noon recess, Hon. J. B. Hunnicutt was invited to address the crowd. ThiB he proceeded to*do in his usual happy style. He caught the ear of the crowd from the start. Mr. Hunnicutt drew a beautiful and eloquent picturo of Geor gia’s coming prosperity, as foreshad owed in the prices realized at this sale. The great mineral, agricultural and timber resources of the State were now attracting capital from the North and East. He bid welcome to all who corne to help us. The speaker grew poetic and improvised a number of impromp tu rhymes, which were thoroughly ap preciated by the representative audi ence. Round after round of applause responded to tho happy hits and felling points. He was introduced to the crowd as the corn and oat raiser of Middle Georgia.” Hon. W. B. Berry is as apt at repartee as he is shrewd and far-seeing in busi ness matters, and has a Parthian lance for every luckless wit who has the te merity to cross blades with him. Not long since he was taking breakfast at one of the swell up-town hotels in New York, and had as compugnons d’hote a couple of blue-nosed patriots of the Down East variety. With a garrulous obtrusiveness characteristic of the race they sought to engage him in conversa tion, and after vainly essaying to draw him out on first one topic and another, the talk finally drifted into a discussion of certain notable incidents connected with a public demonstration of the Grand Army of the Republic, which had taken place in New York only a short time before. The patriots waxed warm and enthusiastic in their laud ations of the G. A. It., and as a climax to the roistering flubdub with which they had been regaling each other, one of them turned to Mr. Berry, and, with a manner and expression that were meant to be impressive, said: “Ah, sir! the Grand Army of the Republic is the biggest thing in this country, and no mistake.” "Well, I don’t know about that,” said Mr. Berry, in that dry, rasp ing tone which he is wont to assume when stroked the wrong way, "there is at least one thing bigger than your Grand Army of the Republic, and it seems to be growing every day." “What is that, pray ?” queried the patriot, as he elevated his sky-colored proboscis in manifest disdain. "It—is—the—Solid ■South!" was tho sententious rejoin der; "I supposo you linvo heard of it V” They failed to ejaculate. In fact, tlioy wero so diraifuddlcd nt tho unexpected retort that they could not frame a re ply, nnd Rroi. Berry was allowed to fin ish hia taeal' without further interrup tion. “The. whole country soems to be go ing wild'Qii. the subject of trusts, com bines, andi organizations of overy kind and character,” remarked a veteran merchant tlie other day, "and now I understand: tlint tho drummers have •guuizcdl. One of tho objects of their organization, as I have boon informed, is to foroe the railroads, hotels and liv ery stableoto give thoin special rates;— in otheri words, by combining against them, to compel favors that are not ac corded to-tlie general traveling public. This-may bo well onougli, so far ns tho 'ailroads- ace concerned—the railroads am alile to stand it;—but when it comes to combining ngainst our hotels and liv ery stables,, in ordor to save a fow dollars for tho.'r omployors, I think they should stop and reflect. For illustration, New- nan spends a hundred thousand dollnrs or mom lu Atlanta overy year, and the only part of it that slio gets back is the pittance tliat tho Atlanta drummprs spondtftir hack hire and hotel accommo dations. This money oventually finds its way buck to tho local merchants, but is- really so small a part of tho amount that? the drummers carry oft in tho way of tmdo as to bo scarcely worth men tioning.. Therefore, instead of trying to beat prices down at our liotols and livery stables, they ought, ns a matter of generous reciprocity, to bo willing to pay at lonst as much as is churgod other patrons of tlioso establishments. Ths drummers seoin to bo in a swing now,, and may fool that tlioy are indis pensable,. but tlioy are not. In fact, I am not suro if tho average doalor wouldn’t got along bettor without them, anyway. In tho first placo, tho drummer’s expenses nro liocossarlly added to tho cost of tho goods which tho merchant buys, and in tho course of a year this of Itself will amount to a snug sum. In tho next placo, tlioro is hardly a merchant who doos not occn- sionally ovorstock himself moroly to bo accommodating, and frequently pur chase articles that ho does not nood at nil, because tlioy nro urgod upon him by a clever drummer whom ho likos. This may not appear sensible or bust, noss llko, but It Is truo novortlioloss, and I am satisfied there isn’t a mer chant in Newnan who does not linvo this experience overy yoar. Now, if the country merchants wero to combine and agree not to purchase any more goods from tho drummers timir occupa tion would be gono, and in this day of: now departures tho advisability of suoh a course certainly presents some aspects that are worth considering. 1 like tho drummers. As a class they are cloveiy gentlemanly and generous; but Ii am free to say thut J do not approvo tlie stingy policy of trying to Huve a litWo expense In those towns that patronize them, in ordor that their omployors may add u fow dollars more to tlie profits on their sales. If tlie money thus saved went into the pockets of tho drummers It would not appear quite so bud*, per haps, but I nm told that it doea not, and tho zeal displayed in lrylng;t» . re duce their weekly expense account s un doubtedly works a hardship upon their best friends—tho country merchants. While the drummers are flourishing, they should bo willing t hat tlioso who support and enenurago thorn in bus mens have an equal showing for a living, also. ‘Live and let live,’ is a mighty good motto for tlie drummer, and' it is one that he ought to keep in mind as he mingles with his country customers.” THE ELEVENTH OENSCT&. Full Information Concerning oh* Man ner In Which the Work: wUt be Done. J. H.
