The Herald and Advertiser
NEWNAN, FRIDAY, AUG. 7.
LOCALS BROUGHT FORWARD.
The Herald ami Advertiser is re
quested to state that the rumor that a
young woman was placed under arrest
by the police a few days ago for ap
pearing upon the streets immodestly
attired is wholly without foundation.
The report has caused the young wo
man the deepest mortification, and em
phatic denial is made by Chief of Po
lice Fincannon that any such incident
occurred.
Mr. W. A. Potts returned Friday
from an extended trip through Kansas,
Missouri, Illinois, ana Indiana. He says
Kansas has raised an immense crop of
corn, but this crop is not so good in the
other States visited. The hay crop is
very poor, he says, but wheat and oats
are as fine as he ever saw. He en
countered extremely hot weather on
the trip, compared to which our sum
mer weather is invigorating.
A pleasant surprise to their many
friends was the recent marriage of Miss
Harriet S. Hutchens, the pretty daugh
ter of Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Hutchens,
to Mr. Thos. R. Fuller, of Atlanta. The
happy event occurred on the afternoon
of the:20th ult., Dr. J. S. Hardaway
officiating. Immediately after the
ceremony Mr. and Mrs. Fuller left for
Atlanta, where Mr. Fuller has a fine
business position and where they will
make their home.
The State Railroad Commission has
refused to grant the petition of Rome,
Bremen, Carrollton and Griffin for per
mission to change the schedule of pas
senger train No. 3, Cedartown to
Griffin. The change requested would
have made the early morning train on
this division about two hours later at
Newnan, and if put into effect would
have missed all connections at Griffin,
both north and south. The present
schedule suits Newnan, and all other
points between Cedartown and Griffin,
except Bremen and Carrollton.
The last of the Central of Georgia
excursions to Tybee of the season will
leave Newnan next Tuesday night,
Aug. 11, as will be seen from an ad
vertisement appearing elsewhere in
this issue. These excursions over the
Central have been unusually popular
this season. Those taking advantage
of this excursion will reach the sea
shore resort in time for the celebration
of Tybee Day, (Thursday, Aug. 13.)
There will be at Tybee that day a
great many amusement features— ac
robatic stunts, races, and fireworks at
night.
Hon. W. C. Wright is now right in
the midst of his campaign, and moving
rapidly from point to point in the dis
trict. He made the opening speech of
his campaign Monday atlLaGrange, and
that it was well received has been tes
tified since by numerous encouraging
letters and pledges of support from the
voters of Troup. Wednesday he spoke
at Buena Vistia, at Cusseta yesterday,
,and will be in Talbotton to-day. To
morrow (Saturday) fee will speak at
Franklin. His mail is growing heavier
each day, and it is a fact that his pros
pects are also daily growing brighter.

Miss Georgia Atkinson, who has been
touring Europe the past -six or eight
weeks with a party of Atlanta friends,
is being detained beyond the sailing
date fixed for the return of her party
by the unsettled war conditions now
prevailing throughout ,(Europe. Thou

in Paris at last accounts, chaperoned
by Mrs. Curtis Arnall "North, who is
-also a member of the party. No fear
is felt for their safety, although their
predicament is necessarily an unpleas

Prof. J. W. Firor, who spoke on ‘‘In

A Word From Farm Demonstration
Agent Wiley.
Owing to the war in Europe, there is
certain to he a scarcity of clover and
vetch seed, and prices are sure to go
higher; so it will be advisable for all
farmers who are going to sow these
crops to order their supply immediate
ly. The advance in price is not due to
a scarcity of seed, but to the fact that
a large portion of our supply comes
from Europe, and the present situation
has so tied up commerce that American
seedsmen cannot get hold of the seed.
During the next two weeks 1 will be
away on my vacation, and as I have no
substitute, as has the mail carrier, I
ask all who wish to communicate with
me during my absence to write me at
Eastanollee, Ga. If 1 can serve you in
any way 1 shall he more than glad to
do so. Yours very trulv,
II. G. Wiley,
Demonstration Agent.
Infection and Insect Bites Dangerous
Mosquitoes, (lies and other insects,
which breed quickly in garbage pails,
ponds of stagnant water, barns, musty
places, etc., are carriers of disease.
Every time they bite you, they inject
poison into your system from which
some dread disease may result. Get a
bottle of Sloan’s Liniment. It is anti
septic and a few drops will neutralise
■the infection caused by insect bites m
rusty nails. Sloan’s Liniment disinfects
cuts, bruises and sores. You cannot
afford to he without it in vour home.

Hon. W. C. Wright ’Opens His Cam
paign at LaGrange.
LaGrange Reporter, 4th inHt.
Hon. W. C. Wright, the well-known
Newnan attorney, who is a candidate
for Congress from the Fourth district in
opposition to Judge W. C. Adamson,
spoke at the court-house yesterday
morning before about 480 Troup county
voters.
Mr. Wright was introduced to the
audience by Col. M. TJ. Mooty, of this
city, who paid a striking tribute to the
sterling ‘qualities of the candidate.
"In my twelve vears’ experience at
the LaGrange bar 1 have been on caseB
with and against Bill Wright, and I can
truthfully say that I have never known
him to do one thing that would in any
way characterize him as anything but a
fair and upright gentleman.”
After a few introductory remarks the
speaker declared his platform as fol
lows.;
Favored a system Of rural credits,
whereby the farmers could obtain long
time loans on-their landB at a low rate
•of interest; a reduction of the tariff as
had been made by the 'Democratic ad

over'the impression made on the audi
•ence.
