Various objection# to the proposed
tied debt for waterworks and sew-
purposcs can be heard. Some
eot to the purchase of the Wight
id Commerce street wells, some ob-
to issuing bonds for so large an
amount as $100,000, while there are
others who are afraid $100,000 will not
be enough, and others still who object
on general principles, or for reasons
Whioh, If followed out, would be found
to have their origin In prejudice.
Although the proposition sub
mitted to the voters of the city on
Tuesday was to authorize the Issuance
of bonds to the amount of $100,000, It
Is more than probable that a'complete
system of waterworks and such sow-
erage as the c|ty needs for the present
can be put in for a good deal less than
that amount of money. It certainly
can be done if tho sanitary sowerage
is confined for the present to the bust-
t urns or orpwdcd part of the city.
Will the Mayor and Council do
this? ;• 1 ,
Tim Hkuald heard this question
asked yosterday, and heard It
said at the same that If such a
course upon the part of the City
Fathers could be assured it would re-
movo the only objection that some
good , citizens had to urge against
voting for the bonds. Hero It occurred
to tho representative of Tim IIkiut.o
that the best way to flhd out what tho
Mayor and Oounoll proposed to do was
to go and nsk them, And he did gr,
and hero Is what they, said:
Mayor Gilbert s “While I am satis
fied It would be better to sower tho
city as far south as State street
nud north to Residence street, still
to harmonize and settle the water
works and sowerage question, I see
no objections to sewering only so
muoh of the business portion of the
city ns will not in any way affect tho
loloncy of the system as made by
r. Chase. In my opinion It Is very
tleocsBary for the welfare of our citi
zens that tho system should be perfect
id would bo far better not to put
iwn any at all, If tho system Is to be
damaged thereby, t am opposed to
compelling our citizens In resident
purtlons of the city to conncot with
and use sewerage, for the enjoyment
of suoli luxuries should be left to their
own wIsIiob and preference’’
Alderman Clark said: "If election
for bonds Is carried, my Idea Is to put
In a complete system of waterworks as
early as praotioablc. Put, In sewurage
In business portion of town. Not to
float any more bonds than Is ’abso
lutely necessary to pay for work as It
progresses."
Alderman Gunnison, who, was shcfwn
what Alderman Clark had said, said:
Hark has expressed my views there
exactly, and I authorize you to Just
ilgn my name to It.”
Alderman Cassidy expressed hltn-
if thus s “My Idea Is, as it al
ways has been, to spend Just as little
^&f the $100,000 as possible, the city
• doing tho work Itself nnd Issuing
ds to meet the expenses as de-
by the progress of the work,
do not need sewerage all over
city, and I am in favor of confin
ing the sewerage for sanitary purposes
to what is fieoessary for the city for
tho present.”
“Alderman Lockett said: “My un
derstanding all the time has been
that we were proceeding on the basis
of $100,000 ns tho maximum amount,
and that we are to pay ns we go and
Issue only the bonds neccssnry, stop
ping as far short of the $100,000 au
thorized ns possible.”
Alderman Jones said: “Why, of
course wo don’t expect to throw out nn
; issue of $100,000 in bonds ull at once.
| Wo want a good system of waterworks
it will supply the whole city first,
ygnd then suoli sanitary sewerage only
! as tho present needs of the city, with
due regard for health nnd cleanliness,
demand.”
Alderman Weslosky could not be
found by the scribe, and wo will not,
therefore, take the liberty of quoting
him, though we are satisfied that he is
I in full accord with the balance of the
Council m the safe and conservative
course to which they have committed
themselves.

ALBANY WEEKLY
Nearly every Sunday finds a delega
tion of young men from Albany look
ing after certrin Important Interests
In Dawson.
Whereferef
To be sure, there are many pretty
girls in Dawson, but so there are at
home.
Visit the various dress making es
tablishments of the city and see the
amount of work plied up on tables
and chairs, that must be out by Chau
tauqua time.
Dresses for town folks, dresses for
ladies from the country nnd dresses
for ladles in other towns.
No wonder there Is a aessatlon of
social pleasures before Chautauqua.
A lady could not get her wardrobe
Into shape for that momentous occas
ion without giving her time anfi close
attention to it for several weeks be.
fore It Is upon us.
A lady who had worried, herself hys'
tcrlcal over, two or three dresses that
would obstinately persist In having
the effect that they were not Intended'
to have, exclaimed that civilized life
was a failure anyhow, and for her
part she wished she'were a heathen.
Fashionable and becoming dressing
Is an art, and she of the slender purse
who keeps up to tithe with the .giddy
flight.of Dame Fashion does it nt the
expense of muoh vexation of spirit ns
well ns oareful planning.
Weddings and'wcddingsl The lo'oal
nowspapers will need to establish a
matrimonial column to give space for
all themarrlnge notices and wedding
news of tho spring. .
A prominent young business man
will take unto himself a partner for
better or for worse on the 10th of this
month, and one of the falreBt of our
girls will say the few words that will
sottlo her destiny and give her the
privilege of chnperon|,ng parties, on
tho 0th of April.
Speaking of weddings reminds us of
a pretty oostume that the wardrobe of
last Tuesday’s brido contained,
It was of an exquisite shade of tan
lledford oord, and trimmed with - a
heavy white corduroy.
Tho gentlemen about town have
gone wild over the new union depot,
now that It Is n sure thing.
That is all right, but the ladles’ turn
will oome when the Opera House
plans are In the hands of the builders,
or when it Is completed nnd they are
preparing forthededlcatlon.
The musiolans of the Baptist churoh
are already looking over their music,
making a few selections nnd getting
themselves In trim to prepnre some
thing extra in that line for the' dedi
cation of their new churoh.
Invitations have been received in
Macon to the marriage of Miss Fannie
Rudisill, of Forsyth, to Mr. Alex W.
Bonier, Macon correspondent of the
Atlanta Journal. ‘The marriage will
be consummated at the Baptist church
on the evening of the 15th at fi o’clock.
Miss Rudisill is Well known in Macon
and is cultivated and refined, with
many cbatmlng womanly traits, that
will be sure to make , for the man so
fortunate its to win, a life of sweet
contentmen$. Mr. Alex W. Sealer is
one of the best known men In Georgia'
journalism, and for a number of years
has been one of the leading members
Of the Journal staff. For the past few
months Mr. Bealer has made Macon
Ills home.
Mrs. O. M. Clark will probably en.
tertnln two young Indy friends during
Chautauqua.
A young lady from New Orleans and
uno from Montgomery.
Tho Albany German Club has shuf
fled off this mortal coil and gone to
meet its reward. It is heard of ho
more.

t upon a bill presented by lawyers
resenting some of the minority
Stockholders. The bill attacks the
of the Central property to the

keeps them so busy drilling that they
scaroely have time to breathe. They
do not seem to mind it any, though.
On the oontrary, they sacrifice every
thing else for the Guards drills, nnd
consider themselves fortunate to be
able to do so.
Germans will certainly lnugulsh for
a time on account of it.
Mrs. Lou Warren expects to go
down to DeWitt to-day for a few dnys
rest and a pleasant visit to friends
there.
The latest and daintiest of whims is
a supplement to fancy stationery In
the form of a little pad of the finest
nnd softest of Jnpanese tissue paper,
exactly the size of a half sheet of note
paper. The paper is white, nnd lias
stamped in one corner a single flower
in the natural color, sometimes shaded
or outlined in gold. After writing n
letter she tears off on o f the tissue
sheets amt rolls it into the least pos
sible compass and drops upon it
enough perfume to dampen it thor
oughly, using, of course, the perfume
of the flower stamped on the paper.
When some admiring friend receives
the letter there is likely to flutter out
ns he opens it something very much
resembling a butterfly, and breathing
charming suggestions in its dainty
perfume.—Augusta Chronicle.
Mr. A. W. Bealer, whose intended
marriage is chronicled In the follow
ing item clipped from the Macon
News, is a relative of Dr. W. L. Davis,
of this city, and has been an occas
ional visitor to Albany:
D: SATURDAY. MARCH 12, 1892.
Did you ever know so long a rest, so
complete a rest, as giddy 'young
Society has had this spring!
Nothing of especial interest as'yet,
but an occassona! neighborhood tea-
drinking,
Our young people have not had
energy enough yet to even get up a
crowd to see t,be Klckapoo Indian
show.
But wait a few days, longer .uptil
Chautauqua enlivens the town, then
things .will buzz. Calls, to show the.
new dresses and. welcome visitors,
lively gatherings to further exhibit
the new gowns to admiring friends
and to (fiitertnln the visitors, and ger
man# pt which the ladles will shine
resplendent In full evening attire,
will be rushing In upon the heels of
each other until one will have no op
portunity for a good, lung breath until
the nssembly week is psBBcd. Indeed,
you may expect no rest for two weeks
after It is passed, for lively Mfds
Pleasure -does not settle down sd easily
to hum-drum existence after having
her own sweet way for n time.
Chautauqua Is a boon in moro ways
than nne, for Society would BUrely
stagnate these warm spring days were
It not for that.
