We desire to direct, the. attention,
of our readers to t e coming brief
engagement in LaFayette of A. K.
Hawkes, as announced in this issue
of the Messenger.
This visit should not be confused
with those of the ordinary travelling
ipticisus or so called eye specialists
(usually merely peddlers or fakirs),
is it is of a strictly professional and
legitimate nature.
The fi m of A K. Hawkes, located
in Atlanta, (la., is the originator of
the celebrated “Ilawkes’ Spectacles
and Eyeglasses, ’’ and has been
favorably known to the public for
more than thirty years. As one of
the leading optical establishments
it has a reputation throughout the
Uuited States. Any statement made
by this old and responsible concern
may be entirely relied upon. Per
sons alllicted with defective vision
or eye trouble in any form, would
do well to avail themselves of this
opportunity to consult a strictly
tirst-class optician.
Arch Daley, who lives near the
army post, was tried before Judge
Foster Monday on a writ of lunacy,
but following the evidence was dis
charged by the ordinary. It is un
derstood that another trial will be
held at Rossville on Nov. 2nd, when
a jury will be empanelled to decide
the question of Mr. Dalev’s sanity.
Doubt as to Mr. Daley’s sanity was
aroused last week, when it is stated
that he twice attempted to set his
residence on lire. Mr. Daley ap
peared perfectly rational at his trial
Monday and explained to the ordi
nary that his actions were due to
the elTect of medicine which he had
taken to relieve a severe headache.
With the idea of having a large
number of stores and residences
wired fore ectric lights by the time
the city's electric light plant is com
pleted and ready for operation, the
city council has employed R. B
Wicker, an electrician, of Rome, to
do wirin t for any citizens of the
town. Tne city will do the work at
cost plus ten per cent, the ten per
cent being added to cover freight,
storage and breakage, so it will be
seen that people of the town can
have wiriug done practically at cost
It is hoped that the people of the
town who have decided upon the in
stallation of electric lights will at
once give their order to Mr. Wicker,
so that he van have a large number
of jobs completed by the time the
current is turned on.
The fine weather during this
month has greatly aided the con
tractors in rushing work upon the
waterworks and electric light sys
tems. The reservoir was completed
last week and this week the finishing
touches are being put on the power
house at the spring November 15th
is the date now fixed by the con
tractors wtieu they will have every
detail finished and the plants ready
for steady oieral : cn.
