A Bird Supper.
A very pleasant and enjoyable occa
sion which The Herald and Advertiser
overlooked in its local chroniclings was
a bird supper given one evening last
week in honor ot Hon. Thos. G. Hud
son. Commissioner of Agriculture;
Hon. R. F. Wright. Assistant Commis
sioner of Agriculture; Hon. J. F. John
son, Chief of Fertilizer Division of the
Department of Agriculture; Mr. E. F.
Williams, Chief of Correspondence Di
vision; and Hon. P. A. Methvin, State
Food Inspector. These gentlemen had
heard much of Jim Reid’s cuisinestic
skill in the preparation of “quaii
on toast” his fame as a cook ne-
ing but little less luminous than
that enjoyed by Col. Harry Fisher
among gourmets as a ’possum expert
—and their curiosity was whetted to a
point which nothing short of a brace of
birds served by Jim himself would sat
isfy. When each guest had dissected a
couple of birds, liberally garnished with
the incomparable sauce that only Jim
knows the secret of, they arose as one
man and not only acclaimed Jim’s abil
ity as a cook, but gave other manifes
tations of gustatory delight equally
convincing. Col. Harry Fisher presid
ed as chief host and did the honors.
Other gentlemen who assisted in enter
taining the party, and were also at the
supper, were Hon. J. R. McCollum,
Hon. Jos. T. Kirby, and Messrs. J. A.
Stephens and .las. E. Brown. Col.
Hudson and party returned to Atlanta
on the 10:40 p. m. train.

The new building now in course of
erection for the Bradley-Banks Co., on
Long Place, will be completed and

the wholesale grocery business, and
are now making extensive preparations
to this end. This will give Newnan
two wholesale grocery houses, the
Manget-Brannon Co. having been in
successful operation here for several
years.
The H. C. Arnall Merchandise Co. is
putting material on the ground for an
extension of its main building, which,
when completed, will give this firm all
the store-r^om it is.likely to need for
several years to come. The present
building is two stories high and runs
back 120 feet. The extension, which
will also be two stories, will add 76
feet to the main building, thus making
a hugh structure of brick and mortar
covering the entire space from street

A Valuable Invention.
There is on exhibition at Banta’s
jewelry store a clock alarm device—a
new invention that is likely to prove of
great value to the inventor and much
usefulness to the public as well. The
device may be described as follows: A
disc or cyliner having pins arranged in
circular lines or sections, so as to form
electric contact and ring a bell or pro
duce an alarm at set intervals, the in
tervals to be regulated by means of a
set lever on a dial having figures to rep
resent the desired intervals when the
alarm is to be sounded. The apparatus
is attached to the mechanism of a clock
by means of cof.-wheels or pinions of
different sizes, having teeth in such
number and so placed as to set off an
alarm as often as may be required.
The device is designed to meet the
wants of factories, foundries dye-
works, sick-r,joins, kitchens in fact,
wherever an alarm system is needed to
remind one of a designated duty at a
given hour or minute. All that is nec
essary to do this is to set the lever at
the proper number on the dial of the
clock.
Mr. A. H. Johnson, watchmaker at
Banta’s jewelry store, is the inventor.
He has already built four models, one
of which has been sent to the Latent
Office. Another can be seen in success
ful operation at the Coweta Cotton Oil
Mill, another at the Southern Cotton
Oil Mill, and still another is on exhibi
tion at Banta’s jewelry store.
Mr. H. S. Banta has acquired a half
interest in the patent, and with his
hustling business ability, coupled with
Mr. Johnson’s mechanical genius, we
see no reason why, the invention may
not be turned to very profitable ac
count. They may form a stock com
pany for the purpose of manufacturing
the device and putting it on the market.
