W. C. Stephens Gets the Buggy. Last Saturday afternoon at 2 o’clock I. N. Orr Co. gave away their $150 buggy. The crowd present at the drawing was estimated at twelve hun dred. The drawing was one of the fairest that we have ever seen. The tickets were contained in a large hox, securely sealed, and this was thorough ly shaken up by two men in the crowd. Mr. 1. N. Orr, jr.,Jgave a brief history of the drawing, stating that during the preceding four months the firm hud given out nearly 70.000 tickets, each representing a dollar purchase, either cash or credit. The crowd was then asked to pick five representative citi zens, those selected being Bob Davis, Blue Tolbert, W. L. Cruce, Frank Mer iwether and John Howard. These, in turn, were asked to name one to do the drawing, and they selected Hon. B. L. Redwine. Mr. Redwine then opened the box and drew the first number— A 5479—and announced that the paity holding this ticket would be given two weeks in which to present same. In case the ticket should not be presented within the time specified, then the sec ond ticket drawn would be entitled to the prize: and after the second fort night had elapsed the party holding the third ticket could claim the vehicle. Early Monday morning all three of the tickets were presented—the first by W. C. Stephens, of the Fourth district; the second by Willie Arnold, (colored), of the Sixth district; while it was found that Miss Mary Parrott held the third. The crowd seemed thoroughly satis fied with the manner in which the drawing had been conducted. ours.

McCalla—Perdue. Elberton, Ga., Oct. 19th. —Oneof the beautiful events of the early fall was the wedding Tuesday at high noon of Miss Annie Allen McCalla and Mr. J. Howard Perdue of Birmingham, Ala., which took place at the bride’s home, “Oakland,” a beautiful place overlook ing the Savannah, near Heardmont. The house was decorated with quan tities of white chrysanthemums, roses, palms and Southern smilax. In the hall way palms were used, and the base of the stairway was banked in ferns. The ceremony was performed in the long drawing-room, which had an elab orate decoration of large white chrysan themums. These were massed the length of the room at one side, and formed a background for the bridal party. Around the bride’s table, where twen ty of the intimate friends of the bride and groom sat, was for a centerpiece a large heart-shaped cake, at the top of which was placed a wedding bell circled with garlands of lilies of the valley and orange blossoms. Just above this hung a great bell of chrysanthemums and lilies. Dr. J. II. Mashburn officiated. The bride's sister, Miss Olivia McCalla, was maid of honor, and Mr. W. C. Griggs, of Birmingham, was best man. Miss Thelma Wright and Miss Josephine Gro gan were ribbon girls. little Miss Alice Linder and Miss Alice Smith were flower girls, and Master John Wayne McCalla ring-bearer. The bride wore an exouisite gown of heavy white satin and cniffon, veiled in rose point and duchess lace. Her veil ! was of point applique lace, caught to the I hair with a horseshoe of diamonds, j The maid of honor wore a gown of blue messaline, and her flowers were pink bridesmaids’ roses. Mrs. M. A. McCalla was gowned in blue chifFon cloth. Mr. and Mrs. Perdue left at 1:15 o’clock for their bridal tour, and on their return will make their home in Birmingham. Mr. Perdue is a man of much person al magnetism, and is one of the brightest young men at the Alabama bar. His beautiful young bride, who belongs to one of the wealthiest and most distin guished families of South Carolina, has been a social favorite at both American and European resorts. Favored by birth and wealth with all the good things of life, few young women have enjoyed greater social success. Mr. Paul Maddox, an employee of the Newnan Cotton Mills, met his death in a tragic manner Monday night. He was attempting to move a trunk from an upper room of the house which he occupied to another room on the same floor. He got out on the roof of the shed in order to transfer the trunk by taking it through a window of the room he wished to vacate and putting it through the front window of the room adjoining. As he pulled the trunk on to the roof he lost his footing and rolled off to the ground below, a distance of twelve or fifteen feet. The trunk followed and struck him on the head, crushing his skull. Dr. A. A. Barge and Dr. T. S. Bailev were sum moned to attend the unfortunate man, hut they could do nothing for him, and a few hours later he died. Mr. Maddox was married only last week, and his tragic death was a great shock to his young wife, as well as to everyone in the mill community.
