fierald and fldwriiser. NEWNAN, FRIDAY, DEC. 24. Locals Brought Forward. CHRIS 1 M AS DAY. At the break of Christmas Day. Through the frosty starlight ringing. Faint and sweet and far hwhv Comes the sound of children singing, Chanting nnd singing, "Cenae to mourn. For Christ is born, Peace and joy to all men bringing!*’ Careless that the chill winds blow. Growing stronger, sweeter, clearer, Noiseless footfalls in the snow Bring the happy voices nearer, Hear them singing. "But Christ is here. Mirth and gladness with Him bringing!’’ "Merry Christmas!” hear them say. As the oast, is growiag lighter; May the joy of Christmas Day- Make your whole year gladder, brighter!” Join their singing, "To each home. Our Chriat has come, Ail Love’s treasures with Him bringing!” I Margaret Deland. Every English-speaking man. wo man and child is interested in the orig inal American—or, in other words, the Indian. Those of you who have never known them except through history and literature doubtless think of them as a stern, hard-hearted class of peo ple. This is not true, for while an In dian never forgets an injury and will wait years, if need be, to avenge that injury, he remembers a kindness equal ly as long, and will follow one whom ho loves through thick and thin. The Indian protects his women at any cost, and the play which is to be presented at the auditorium on Dec. 30, entitled "The Heart of an Indian,” recites the story of Indian’s love for his sister and bow he avenges her wrongs. Don’t miss this play, and don’t forget the date. Wednesday evening, at the residence of the bride’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Hooten, Greenville street. Miss Sadie M. Hooten was united in marriage to Mr. Jas. M. Lyle. The ceremony was impressively performed by Rev. J. F. Singleton, the only at tendants being Miss Ola Shannon, maid of honor, and Mr. Fred Brown, best man. Prof. Chas. Astin played the wedding march. The couple stood tinder a beautiful arch of holly and wedding bells, and the home was deco rated throughout in green and white. The presents were numerous and handsome, conspicuous among them being a chest of silver presented by the young gentlemen friends of the groom. Refreshments were served, after which the young couple went to their apart ments at 30 Salbide avenue, where they will be at home to their friends. Uncle Duke Cole reached his 89th birthday Tuesday, and in celebration of the event the white employees of the R. I). Cole Mfg. Co. presented him a handsome silver loving cun. The pre sentation was made by Mr. John Sago in a pretty little speech, who stated that the gift was a testimonial of the leve and esteem in which the venera ble founder of the R. D. Cole Mfg. Co. was held by every one of the company’s employees. Uncle Duke was taken completely by surprise, and was visi bly affected by this manifestation of the regard of the men with whom he had been so long associated, their rela tions during all the years being more like those of fellow-laborers than of employer and employee. The enp is Mounted on nn ebony base, and is of exquisite design. ’'Joshua Simpkins,” a four-act New England play, will be presented at the auditorium next Wednesday night, Dec. 29. The climax of stage realism, it is asserted, has been reached in the pre sentation of this stirring saw-mill scene m ‘‘Joshua Simpkins,” and will be pre sented in this city by a peculiar me chanical device which has never been introduced here before. This saw-mill scene is claimed to be a vast improve ment over any attempts in a similar line. The company also boasts of a splendid orchestra” which is carried complete by the organization, to aid in the presentation of the play, which is said to abound with musical and danc ing specialists of a high order. To as sist ‘‘Joshua Simpkins” in popularity, a band of music is also carried, and a concert is given which is said to be far above anything usually heard with a traveling musical organization. The parade will leave the theater at the asuai time and take the usual route, making a burlesque parade. ftlaskal Programme at First Methodist Church, Sunday, Dec. 26. MORNING SERVICES. 1.

Bob Taylor to Be in Newnan Next Friday Night. Senator Rob Taylor will lecture in Carrollton on Thursday. Dec. 30, and will he accompanied to Newnan on the following day by Judge VV. C. Adam son, who will introduce this popular lecturer to the largest audience ever assembled to greet and applaud a pub lic entertainer in Newnan. On this occasion Senator Taylor will explain in person that he did not break a contract with the lyceum bureau last summer, during Chautauqua, when he failed to appear as advertised. We have it from Judge Adamson that Senator Taylor asserts that he has been grossly mis represented by the bureau. He says it hurts him to have his friends in Newnan even think that, he would break a contract. No one will doubt the Senator’s sincerity when one hears him explain in true Boh Taylor lan guage how he has been misrepresented and mistreated by the bureau. Judge Adamson says that Senator Taylor is in his happiest mood these days, and is rejoicing over the prospect of having another chance to greet a Newnan audience. Senator Taylor spoke frankly to Judge Adamson when he told that he (Tavlor) had never been more happy or loss constrained than when speaking to the large audiences that always greet him at Newnan. The eloquent Tennesseean will be at his best, so there is u rare treat in store for the people of Newnan and vi cinity on Friday night, Dec. 31. Death of Judge W. B. W. Dent. News of the death of Judge W. B. W. Dent, which occurred Sunday night at the Soldiers’ Horne in Atlanta, was a great shock to his Newnan friends. He was in Newnan only a few days be fore his death, seemed in excellent spirits, and greatly enjoyed meeting bis friends, both in town and country. He expressed himself as greatly pleased with the Soldiers’ Home, where he had been an inmate for several weeks, and called at The Herald und Advertiser office to ask that we quote him as say ing everything commendatory of the institution that could be said. That Ignoring the Hone Paper. Commerce News*. We would be glad for some one to tell us why it is that all over Georgia, the local paper is ignored when announce ments ot engagements and marriages are to be made public. When the child is born, the local paper must tell about it. When death enters the home, obit uary notices are sent the home paper for publication. When visitors come, the local paper must take due notice. But when an engagement is to be announc ed, the local paper is ignored, and it is sent to one of the papers in the larg er eities, where it will be read not by those who know the contracting parties, but by strangers, while those who are interested are kept in ignorance, un less the local paper copies the an nouncement, which, if it fails to do, would bring down anathemas on the head of the innocent editor. For the life of us we cannot understand why the local paper should be thus ignored. The mines of Butte, Colo., have a combined pay-roll of three million dol lars a year.

Judge Dent was 72 years of age, and unmarried. He was a veteran of the Civil War. having gone out as a member of the Newnan Guards—the first infantry company that enlisted from Georgia. He was a genial, warm hearted man, and much beloved by those who knew him Pest. For several years prior to leaving Newnan he filled the office of U. S. Commissioner, and had held other offices of minor im portance at different periods. The remains were brought to New nan Tuesday morning. They were met at the train by an escort from Coweta Lodge, F. & A. M., and conveyed to the citv cemetery, where the inter ment was made with Masonic honors. Brief funeral services at the grave were conducted bv Rev. W. J. Cotter, assisted by Dr. R. J. Bigham. Hon. William Jennings Bryan has evidently no designs upon another nomi nation for the Presidency, and is laying no plans looking to another campaign in t912, if we are to judge by the fol lowing utterance which he is reported to have made at a banquet given in his honor at Globe, Arizona; ‘‘I tell people I never expect to be, or never hope to be, a candidate for President again. One reason for not wanting to is that Mr. Roosevelt, took some of rny policies, and Mr. Taft is taking the others. If 1 ran again they would raise the ‘third- term cry’ on me, saying 1 had served two terms already. And why should a man have all the annoyance of being President when h can get men to do the work for him, leaving me, as 1 am, to go around and meet friends on occa sions of this kind and really enjoy life?” Stung For 15 Years | by indigestion’s pang-trying many j doctors and #200.00 worth of medicine j in vain, B.
