for handling subjects of this character

active journalism. He would be an or

The entertainment at Reese’s Opera
House on Friday evening last was a
splendid success financially, and no less
enjoyable in any respect than the one
which preceded it. The young people
who took part in the entertainment
were at their best, and the delighted
audience were unanimous in voting it
the finest performance by amateurs
ever witnessed in Newnan. The net re
ceipts were $54.40, which sum was
equally divided between the Newnan
Library and the Ladies’ Memorial As
sociation. _
Messrs. E. S. Buchanan and P. F.
Cuttino & Co. have given practical evi
dence of their friendliness to the early
closing movement by shutting up their
establishments promptly at 0:30 p. m.,

Every business house in town ought to
follow suit. Thirteen hours a day is
long enough for anybody to work, and
especially in summer, when trade is
dull and little or no business is done af
ter midday. There is no question but
that the clerks are overworked, and
needlessly so.
On Tuesday last Col. R. I. O’Kelly,
Deputy Revenue Collector for this di
vision, was relieved of his position by
Collector Johnson and Mr. J. A. Craw
ford, of Cartersville, appointed in his
stead. Mr. O’Kelly is a prominent Re
publican, and as no cause was assigned
for his removal, Collector Johnson's
action is not clearly understood. Mr.
Crawford has been connected with the
service for some time as Special Col
lector, and is said to have a fine record
for efficiency and fearlessness in the
discharge of his duties. Ho assumed
charge of the office Tuesday morn
ing.
The surviving members of Company

Miss Willie Orr, who graduated from
our city public school on Thursday 1
night of last week, wore as ornaments
on that occasion two buckles that have
seen servico for nearly a century. One,
a silver knee-buckle, was originnlly tho
property of her great-great-grandfath
er, Rev. John Chapel, of Halifax, Va.
Tho other, a gold bolt-buckle, was worn
by a sister of Rev. Mr. Chapel, who
was also tho mother of Mrs. Rnndolph,
nnd through whom the buckle hns do-
8conded to successive generations. Both
relics are exceedingly rich in design,
and it is needless to say they aro high
ly prized by their present owner.
Mr. J. R. Herring has tested the mor-
its of advertising as thoroughly, por-
haps, ns any merchant in the city, and
the fact that he continues to advertise,
nnd t lint his trade is constantly growing,
furnish the very best evidence that tho
experiment has paid. He uses printer’s
ink, not so much for the purposo of
making reputntiou, but ns the only re
liable medium through which ho can
spoak directly to the people, nnd never
puts In an advertisement unless he has
something of special interest or value
to offer. By this plan he is making
friends and customers every day, and
WO take special pleasure In noting his
success.
Mr. J. II. Shelnutt owns a fine body’
of land in l’olk county, Fla. A few
days since ho received several speci
mens of phosphate rock which had
been found on his place, nnd in order
to ascertain the value of the minornl he
forwarded specimens to Assistant
8tato Chemist McCandless to be tested.
The analysis, which was received Inst
weok, sliows that the specimens con
tain 00.51 per cent, of bone phosphate,
which, taking tile South Carolina
phosphato as tho basis of value, is con
siderably nbovo the uverage. Mr. Shel
nutt has twenty acres in the tract re
ferred to, and will take steps at onco to
develop it.
The Meriwether County Alliance
mot in Greenville last Tuesday and
endorsed lion. A. J. Snolson for the
State Senate, and Dr. J. W. Taylor and
Col. R. D. Render for tho House. This
was somewhat of a surprise, as, up to
the time of the meeting, Render was
understood to be tho Alliance candidate
for the Senate, and Snelson'the choice
of that body for tho IIouso. Dr. Tay
lor has represented his county in the
Legislature several times, and his abili
ty and popularity aro so well recognized
that there is scarcely any doubt as to
his success in the present contest. Tho
best wishes of his Coweta friends are
with him. *
We havo received the ‘‘Commence
ment Annual” issued from the Newnan
Public Schools. It is a handsome 10-
pngo pnmphlet, edited this year by
Misses Maude Arnold, Annie Alexan
der, and Bessie Orr. The synopses of
seventeen graduating compositions af
forded us a couple of hours of highly en
tertaining reading, and the paper shall
be carefully filed. The "Annual” is a
gem, mechanically, and reflects cred
it upon the job office of McClendon
& Co., Newnan. Prof. L. II. Ford and
his accomplished assistants are to be
congratulated on the high standard to
which they have-raised Newnan’s ex
cellent system of public schools.—
Whitesburfj Advance.
The handsome residence of Hon. W.
Y. Atkinson, on Greenville street,
caught on fire Tuesday morning about
9 o’clock and was entirely destroyed,
together with a large portion of the
furniture and household goods. The
alarm was quickly given, and as prompt
ly responded to, but the flames had
gained such headway that it was im
possible to do more than save the fur
niture in the lower rooms. The total
loss will probably reach $3,000, with
only $1,800 insurance. Col. Atkinson
and family are domiciled temporarily
in the Hackney house, opposite Mr. C.
C. Parrott’s, where they will probably
remain until a new residence can be
built. They have the sympathies of
the entire community in the loss of j
their beautiful home.
Hon. W. Y. Atkinson’s Appointments.
I will address the people of Coweta
county on the political issues involved
in the legislative campaign at the fol
lowing named places:

“Gems of Poetry.”
The above is the titlo of a little volume
made up in tho main of fugitive poems
by various authors, collected and ar
ranged by Mrs. Nellie Leigh Cook, of this
county. Tho compiler has rendered a
signal sorvico to tho reading public, nnd
to lovers of poetic gems tho world over.
A person who has read Gray’s “Elegy”
only can understand what pleasure ho
would havo lost had it not been pre
served; yet upon this Ano poem alone
hangs all his greatness, and it has possi
bly given pleasure to mom poople tlinn
even tho pathos and rytlun of tho “Para
dise Lost.” To those, especially, who
have had a dear one taken from thorn
would wo commend this book. Prom
“It is Well,” “Released,” “If He Had
Lived,” “Reply to Gray’s Elegy,” “Tho
Tliroo Little Chairs” nnd “There is no
Death,” a deni of comfort can bo obtain
ed. All of the selections show a critical
taste, and a heart filled with the purest
emotions and inspirations. Tho book will
interest all refined and cultivated readers.
The little volume is elegantly hound,
and is sold at tho low price of $1. It can
bo had at Carter’s book store.
MaJ. John W. Tench.
Major and Mrs. John W. Tench, of
Gainesville, Fla., have been stopping in
the city for a few days, the guest of
Mrs. Hugh Buchanan. Major Tench
was born and reared in old Coweta,
and both on tho field nnd in tho forum,
in war nnd timo of peace, hns distin
guished his native county by a servico
no less conspicuous for ability than for
patriotism. When the war broko out
ho enlisted in Company A, 1st Georgia
Regiment, ns a private. lie aftorwards
attached himself to Company I\, 1st
Georgia Cavalry, nnd was subsequent
ly promoted to tho adjutancy of tho
regiment. Ilis next promotion was to
tho position of Acting Assistant Adju-
tnnt-Genoral of Morrison’s brigade;
then Acting Assistant Adjutant-Goiter-
al of Martin's division; then Judge Ad
vocate of Martin’s Division Court; and
finally Mnjor of tho 1st Georgia Caval
ry. Aftor the war he represented Cow
eta one or two terms in the Legislature,
nnd the samo courage which distin
guished him on tho field of battle char
acterized his courso iu dealing with tho
reconstruction measures which an ig
norant and intolerant Republican ma
jority sought to force upon us in tho
dark days of that period. For sev
eral years pnst lie hns been engaged in
the newspaper business at Gainesville,
but sold out recently for the purpose
of resuming tho practice of his chosen
profession, which is that of lawyer.
Though now somowhnt past the mo-
ridian of life, ho wears his years so
lightly that no ono would suspect his
hge, and retains all tho genial qualities
which rendored him so popular during
liis early residence in our midst.
Regular Monthly Meeting of the Coun
ty Commissioners.
At the regular monthly meeting of
the County Commissioners on Wodnes-
dny Inst lion. John W. Arnold, of
Grnntville district, was elected a mem
ber of tho board to fill tho vacancy
enusod by tho death of lion. P. O. Col-
linsworth.
Tho following preamble and resolu
tions, expressive of tho deep sorrow of
the hoiy'd in tho loss of ono of its mem
bers, were adopted and orderod pub
lished:
lion. I’. O. Collinsworth was olocted
a member of tho Board of County Com
missioners at tho January oloction, 1885,
and was re-elected to tho same ofllee in
January, 1881), In tho discharge of the
duties of tho olllep his honest endeavor
was to ascertain what was right, nnd
when this was ascertained to Ids satis
faction he was prompt to carry out his
convictions, without fear or favor. He
over endeavored to guard tho interests
of the county, pnd tho poor and unfor
tunate of our citizens found in him an
honest and sympathetic friend. While
he was careful to see that the funds of
tho county were guardedly and judi-
ciously spent, so that tho burden of tax
ation would be as light ns possible,
there was in him no truce of penurious
ness. That ho was a Christian, was pro
claimed by his actions. Since the last
meeting of this Board he has been call
ed by His Master to service in n higher
and nobler sphere—in that world be
yond the grave. Therefore, be it—
1icsolved, That in the death of Hon.
P. O. Collinsworth tho county has lost
an honest, capable official and a pure,
upright citizen, whose central’ object
was tho faithful and conscientious dis
charge of duty in every sphere of life.
Resolved, That, in token of our love
and esteem for our departed friend and
colloague, these resolutions be entered
on tho minutes of this court and a copy
be furnished The Herald and Ad
vertiser for publication.
The LaGrange District Conference
Mot at tho Methodist church in Newnan
yesterday morning at 9 o’clock, Rev. W.
F. Cook, D. D., presiding elder, in tho
ceair.
The introductory sermon, which was
both appropriate to the occasion aiul
typical of the man, was preached by Rev.
S. P. Richardson, presiding elder of tho
Griffin district. It is an unusual thing
for a presiding elder to preach the open
ing sermon in a district conference other
than his own, and his selection for this
occasion was a neat compliment to
Mr. Richardson. He preached to a large
congregation, many of whom had never
had the pleasure of hearing him before.
A considerable number of delegates
answered to their names at the first ses
sion, the attendance being even larger
than usual.
All the itinerant preachers in the dis
trict arc present but two—Rev. J. S. Em
bry of Houston circuit, and Rev. W. T.

transacted up to the timo of going to
press. Tho proceedings in full will bo
given next week.
Rev. Dr. Candler occupied the pulpit
at 11 o’clock yesterday morning and
preached one of tho finest sermons ever
beard at. a district conference, Tho bnsis
ofhis discourse was the fact of Solomon
taking thirteen years to build his own
palace, while ho spent only sc von years
in eroeting tho temple of the Lord. His
subject was “Tho Dangers of a Luxuri
ous Civilization,” and ho hold tho elosest
attention of his audience for more than
an hour. Ho gave uttoraneo to some
startling truths, which seemed to make
a deep impression on tho congregation.
At tho conclusion of the service ho nsked
for money to endow Emory College. Mr.
W. P. Patlllo of A Manta had given $25,000,
on condition that tho trustees would
raise $25,(XX), tho alumni $25,000, and tho
church-at-large $25,(XX). Tho trustees
had pledged their part, and tho alumni
were in a fair way to succeed with tlioir
portion. It only romainod for tho church
to do its part. After some minutes over
$000 was subscribed.
Rev. John 11. Robins, of Cedartown,
occupied the pulpit laat night, preaching
to a largo and attentive audience.
Preaching Is had morning and night,

Card of Thanks.
Allow me through the columns of your
valuable paper to return thanks to the
friends who came so promptly to my aid,
and worked so earnestly to save my prop
erty from destruction last Tuesday.
Many times before my heart lias been
touched by their kindness, but never so
deeply as when I saw them struggling to
save my home and my property; and
when my home was in ashes they came
to me offering the consolation of their
sympathy and my family the comforts of
their own homes. The colored people
were as active, and worked as diligently
as if it had been tlieir own property. For
their efforts I am deeply grateful, and re
turn them niy sincere thanks.
