that of Miss Mary Fox Camp and Mr.
J. A. Hutchinson, of Haralson, which
was solemnized Wednesday evening at
the home of the bride’s mother, Mrs.
W. W. Camp, in South Newnan. The
home was attractively decorated, and
a large company of friends was pres
ent to witness the nuptials. The cere
mony was beautifully ard impressively
performed by Rev. A. S. Hutchinson,
a brother of the groom, and the occa
sion was a thoroughly happy one in all
respects. The bride is quite popular
in Newnan. where she is highly es
teemed for her fine womanly traits and
lovable character. The groom is a
prosperous merchant of Haralson, and
one of the prominent citizens of the
town. The Herald and Advertiser ex
tends , r its best wishes to the happy
couple.

Everything Ready for Chautauqua.
The programme offered by the New’-1
nan Chautauqua Association to the j
good people of Newnan and surround-'
ing country, includes the best things 1
that genius can devise or money pro-1
cure. It offers a solid week of supreme
enjoyment. It will add to the fame of j
Newnan, and will be helpful in many I
ways. Let every citizen of the commu
nity give to this enterprise his loyal I
support and co-operation.
Brief mention of the strong attrac-1
tions that will appear from day to day j
is yiven below:
Sunday afternoon at 4 o'clock Dr. H.
A. Atkinson will deliver the Chautau
qua sermon at the auditorium. Seats
tree. It takes a man of positive genius
to hold and interest a great Sunday
crowd, and make the day mean to you !
all that it should. In Dr. Atkinson we j
have a man with voice and message
who can hold the assemblage. He is
one of the most brilliant pulpit orators
in the State. The Otterbein Male Quar
tette will furnish music on this occa
sion.
Monday morning at 10 :30 o’clock be
gins one of the most interesting exer- j
cises of the week. Ross Crane, the
great cartoonist, will be the principal
attraction at this hour. Mr. Crane
stands without a rival in giving the j
greatest, completest and most artistic
one-man performance in the world, j
The famous Matthiessen Orchestra and
the Robley Male Quartette will tur-!
nish music, and Miss Lewis will give a
reading.
At 8 :15 p. m. Monday the grand con-.
cert will take place, presenting a vari-!
ety of talent not often seen together at
a Chautauqua. Besides the Matthiessen
Band and Orchestra, (every member of'
which is a soloist and artist,) will be
Mr. Howard Davis, the famous tenor,
recently returned from a year’s study
under the masters of music in Europe.
Mr. A. B. Kronfeldt, of New York,
who is so much in demand where good
music is appreciated, will sing also.
Other attractions at this performance
will be Miss Evelyn Lewis, the clever
reader: the famous Otterbein Male
Quartette and Bell Ringers, who sing
with a melody, a balance and a power
that is captivating. The bell-ringing
feature is grand. Miss Mary Brannan,
the charming young reader of Atlanta,
will be heard in some of her best se
lections.
Sid Landon on Wednesday and Thurs
day evenings. Asa character artist he
has no superior in the world, his enter
tainments excelling anything of the
kind on the platform.
Edwin M. Poteat, D. D. LL. D., one
of the most scholarly, brilliant and
powerful platform speakers in Amer
ica to-day—an orator of intense power,
with a stimulating message—comes
Tuesday morning.
W. Powell Hale’s engagements are
for Wednesday and Friday mornings.
He fills the programme with wit, trag
edy, humor and pathos, and carries his
audience from tears to laughter, and
from the ridiculous to the sublime. He
is the peer of any entertainer on the
platform. His monologue, Dickens’
“Christmas Carol,’’ is unsurpassed.
Col. Geo. W. Bain, the Kentucky ora
tor, gives his wonderfully interesting
and instructive lectures on Thursday
and Saturday mornings. He is consid
ered by many to be the strongest and
best lecturer on the American plat
form, and has filled more return dates
than any lecturer in the United States.
The Robley Male Quartette on Thurs
day, Friday and Saturday.
Senator Bob Taylor on Saturday
evening.

—The convicts taken from the brick
yards and coal mines and placed at
work on the public roads are dissatis
fied with the change. They say they
made extra money by working extra
hours at the mines, but now these per
quisites are cut off. We learn that a
cook at one of the camps, who has
served fourteen years of a long sen
tence, conducted a restaurant and sold
cakes and pies to the convicts who
earned money from extra work, and
that he had accumulated about $5,OOP.
It doesn’t look like the convict system
in Georgia was so barbarous after all.

Deafness Cannot be Cured.
By local applications, as they cannot reach the dis
eased portions of the ear. There is only one way
to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed con
dition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entire
ly closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the
inflammation can be taken out and this tube re-
etored to its normal condition, bearing will be de-
stioyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by Catarrh, which is nothing but an influmed con
dition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case
of Deafness (caused by catarrh' that cannot be
cured by Hall’s Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars,
