Maud Muller, on a summer night, went out on her bike in the bright moonlight. She pedaled around from 6 to 10 on a trip that would fag the strongest man; but her heart was light and her spirits gay, for it wasn’t work —’twas nothing but play. Next morn ing, however, she’d a pain in her head; she was all played out, and stayed in bed while her mother hustled in the kitchen below —not to ride a wheel, but to make things go. Though the morn ing was hot and she worked by the fire, she didn’t collaspe with a punctured tire. Alas, for tne girl and the woman —see? Things are not as they used to be.—Jones County News.

Ladies, gentlemen and children are given the best attention at The Halcyon. The Chautauqua. Newnan's three day chautauqufl closed last night, and we are sure that our people were never privileged to en joy a series of entertainments that gave them more pleasure. The high- c'ass attractions that made up the va ried and interesting programme more than fulfilled the expectations of the appreciative audiences that assembled in the auditorium morning and evening. Indeed, it is not putting it too strong to say that everyone was delighted — g leased with the performances of the lessie Leigh Concert Co.; amused and mystified by the remarkable sleight-of- hand feats of the Milburns; raptured by the sweet singing of the Lyric ouar- tette; deeply impressed by Dr. Vroo- man’s splendid lecture, “Armageddon, and After;” highly entertained by Chas. B. Hanford and his talented wife in their Shakespearean roles and other sketches —while everyS'ody was simply charmed with Dr. Geo. R Bible, both as a platform manager and as a lectur er. His lecture last night on “Life and its Opportunities” was a gem, and one of the best ever heard in Newnan. This brief summary does poor justice to Dr. Bible and his brilliant company of entertainers, hut the lateness of the hour precludes a fuller notice—such a notice as they deserve. Sufficient to say, Newnan was delighted with the Chautauqua, and could not be better pleused lhan to have the same compa ny with us for a season next summer. Death of Mr. W. H. Holmes. The Herald notes with deep regret the death of Mr. W. H. Holmes, which occurred Sunday morning at his home on Robinson street—aged 68. lie had been in failing health for more than a year, and for several weeks before his death was confined to his home. It was realized some time ago that he could not long survive the ravages of the disease which had fastened upon him, his case baffling the best medical skill that could be employed for his re lief. The end came peacefully at 8 o’clock Sunday morning. Mr. Holmes wus one of Newnan’s oldest and best-known citizens, and esteemed by all who knew him. He was a veteran of the Civil Wur, en tering the Confederate army when a mere youth and following the fortunes of his command until the close of hos tilities. During his long residence here he made many friends, both in town and country, and all will join The Herald in extending sympathy to the family in their bereavement. Besides his wife, deceased is survived by seven children—Mrs. G. M. Slager, of Franklin, N. C.; Mr. 0. W. Holmes, of Macon; Mr. M. L. Holmes, of At lanta; Mr. F. M. Holmes, of Savannah; Misses Jessie and Cluire Holmes and Mr. W. I. Holmes, of Newnan. The funeral took place Monday after noon, from the residence, services be ing conducted by Rev. E. W. Stone. The interment was at Oak Hill, Rome Takes Her Medicine Like a Little Man. Rome Trlbune-HornlcJ, 24th im»t. That corpulent and portly managerial mag-nut, Harry Matthews, took the se ries with Romo back to Newnan with himself and crew last night when he crossed the tape an easy winner yes terday afternoon, due principally to the magnificent twirling of Lefty Whitney, one of his best men. This side-wheeler bears the distinction of being the first hurler of the season to hold the Rome b. b. team ruriless for a whole game. He did that very thing though yester day with his off-side hook, and to him all credit should go—despite the fact that it was hard, hard, hard, Mias Mary, to lose a series to Newnan just at this time. Fred Knight pitched one of his good old steady games that will win most any time, but he never would have won with Whitney going as he was. That’s about the whole story. A large number of fans were disap pointed yesterday in not getting a look at Nabors, of Newnan, who has pitched two of the most sensational games of the year. The reason is apparent. Whitney is left-handed, and Matty wanted that kind of pitcher against Rome. The Newnan team has played the most consistent (not the most brilliant) ball in the league the past thirty days. Matty has won two out of nearly every serieB he came across. STANDING OF CLUBS Georgia-Alabama League W. L. Pet.
