Heard county has raised $40,000 for
the Newnan and Franklin railroad. If

greater advantage that would accrue to
this county from the building of the
road.

ston, Mrs. J. C. Gibson, the late N. T.
Wright, and Col. W. C. Wright, all of
this city.
The death of Dr. D. J. Myrick, of
College Park, and the passing away of
Dr. J. W. Heidt at Augusta, both
events occurring within the past week,
caused deep sorrow in Newnan. where
they were well-known and much be
loved by everyone. Dr. Myrick was
stationed in Newnan about twenty
years ago as pastor of the First Meth
odist chruch, and Dr. Heidt was for
several years presiding elder of the
LaGrange district. The latter was
the father-in-law of Judge A. E. Cal
houn, of Atlanta, formerly of this city.
The many Newnan friends of Mrs.
N. C. Bridges, have learned with much
sorrow of her death, which occurred

Davis, of this city, and was reared in
Newnan. After her marriage she re
moved to Atlanta, and resided there up
to the time of her death. She is sur
vived by her husband and five children
- two sons and three daughters. The
funeral took place Monday afternoon,
and the interment was at Westview
cemetery, Atlanta.

Mr. E. S. Buchanan, who is one of
the most successful poultry-raisers in
the county, and who has experimented
with all kinds of poultry feed, writes
The Herald and Advertiser as follows:
“I have had such fine success with
sprouted oats as a substitute for a
grazing lot that I want other chicken
fanciers to try this variety of green
food. The way I manage is to get a
box and cover the bottom about one
inch deep with oats, wet them with
warm water say twice a week, and in
ten days you will have as nice a green
lot as one could wish. Feed the oats
in blocks, about three inches square to
each hen. Then if they don’t begin
laying in a week, sell them and buy a
better stock of chickens.”
If any citizen or alderman can oiler
a good reason why the people should
not be allowed the privilege of voting
on a proposition to issue bonds for the
purpose of providing adequate school
facilities for South Newnan, we should
be glad to hear from him. That addi
tional facilities are needed is too ob
vious for dispute ; that something must
be done to relieve the congested condi
tions in the Temple avenue school is
admitted by everyone; that the tax
payers and patrons of the public school
system will not longer endure the pres
ent state of things, one may learn by
going out among the people. All they
ask is the simple right to decide this
question for themselves, and it is a
right that the City Council should not
deny them.
Tom. the 14-year-old son of Mr. and
Mrs. T. L. Camp, was the victim of a
painful accident Saturday. In company
with some young companions he had
gone out to Burpee’s pond duck hunt
ing. He entered a batteau for the pur
pose of rowing across the pond, and as
he drew his gun towards him from the
bank one of the hammers struck the
edge of the boat and the weapon was
discharged. The entire load entered
his left side below the nipple and
passed through below the shoulder-
blade, making a frightful wound. A
messenger was dispatched for Dr. T.
B. Davis, who hurried out in an
automobile, where he found young
Camp lying on the ground near the
scene of the accident, weltering in
blood and moaning as if in great pain.
He dressed the wound and the boy was
brought to town, and we are pleased
to know that he is now doing nicely.
Early in December thieves broke
open a freight car at Raymond and
stole several cases of liquor, amounting
to four or five barrels. Sheriff Brew
ster has been on a quiet hunt for the
thieves for several weeks, and a few
days ago secured sufficient evidence to
warrant the arrest of Luke Estes, a
white man living at Raymond, and
Monday night he was lodged in jail.
Two other parties said to be implicated
in the robbery are under surveillance,
and will probably be taken up during
the coming week. It is understood
that three or four barrels of the stolen
liquor found its way to Newnan, and
that it was here distributed to various
parties, whose identity will not be dis
closed by the officers. The railroad au
thorities will insist upon a thorough in
vestigation of the robbery, it is said,
and will prosecute vigorously not only
the thieves, but the parties who re
ceived the stolen goods.
An important business change plan
ned for the near future, and one that
will be noted with interest by the
friends of this popular house, will be
the reorganization of the big dry goods
firm of the D. W. Boone Co. Mr.
Boone has sold some of the stock of the
company to Messrs. J. W. Stripling
and M. B. Mooney, and these gentle
men will be prominently identified with
the business in future. Although Mr.
Stripling will continue to make his
home in Atlanta, he will give consider
able time to his Newnan interests, and,
with his experience and large meanr,
will prove a valuable addition to the
firm. Mr. Mooney is one of the best
dry goods men in the State, and will
be equally useful in forwarding the
prosperity and success of this big con
cern. Mr. Boone will of course re
main at the head of the firm and con
tinue to direct its affairs, as heretofore,
which is a guarantee that the business
will be bigger and better than ever.
The change will go into effect Feb. 15.
There is an ordinance which makes
it unlawful for any person, firm or cor
poration to build or erect within the
lire limits of the city of Newnan any
house or building of any character, or
in any way add to, repair, build upon,
or generally improve or change any
house or building within said limits,
without first having applied to the city
authorities and obtained permission
for such purpose, and no work shall be
commenced until such permit is ob
tained. All such applications shall be
accompanied by a detailed description
of the building proposed to be erected,
the material to be used in the construc
tion, and the street and number of lot
upon which same is to be placed, etc.
At the meeting of the City Council on
Monday night last it was proposed to
change the foregoing ordinance by ex
tending the limits within which build
ing permits must be secured to the
present corporate limits of the city.
Under the rules the proposed amend
ment will lie over until the next regu
lar meeting.
Card of Thanks.
Wish we could tell the good people
who have been with us in this hour of
sadness, and who tried so hard to help
us bear our troubles and smooth the
aching brow of dear wife and mother
in her last sickness, how much we ap
preciate their kindness; but words are
inadequate to tell what we feel. We
can only say when like sorrow comes
to them may kind words be spoken to
them, and loving hands administer to
their suffering and needs, as they have
to ours. C. W. Carter and Children,
Mary A. Walker.
Many a man thinks he is wise be
cause he has no children to expose his
ignorance.
