The children, Superintendent
Sylvester Brown, teachers. and
friends assembled in the church,
and when the exercises opened at
10 o’clock scarcely a vacant seat
coaid be found.
The exercises were-opened with
song and prayer, and a few most
appropriate remarks from Super
intendent Brown.
Prof. W. E. Ware, of Union
Academy-, then delivered a most
excellent, cordial and appropriate
welcoming address.
Then followed the regular exer
cises of recitations, dialogues, songs
and addresses. The young ladies
and girls participating in the exer
cises were Misses Allice Brown,
Ida Brown, Pearl Dixon, Maggie
Thompson, Mattie Johnson, Laura
Goodroe, Nona Brooks, Sallie Per
due,- Annie Perdue, Eunice Brown,
Lydia Thompson.
The addresses were by Judge A.
C. Riley and Rev. W. J. Dowell.
Throughout the exercises were
in perfect keeping with the occa
sion, and we dare say every per
son present would have been in the
church had there been room.
The recitations and dialogues
were in appropriate sympathy with
Sunday school work, pointing di
rectly to the great put pose sought
to be accomplished though Sunday
school effort. The legend on the
polpit front, in letters of gold, “Re
ward of Earnest Effort,” was evi
dently fully understood by the
Sunday school children, for the
recitations and dialogues disclosed
that the children were not only in
earnest, but that they are emphat
ically intelligent, apt, obedient,
and that they have been well
taught in the Sunday school, and
in the academy.
The songs were decidedly well
rendered, giving evidence that the
singers are well versed in music>
and in accord with the sentiment
of the songs, all most appropriate
to the occasion.
The addesses were in pleasing
sympathy with the occasion, in
structive, interesting and well de
livered.
At about 12 o’clock the exercises
were concluded, and the benedic
tion was sveetly pronounced by a
winsome little child, Miss Eunice
Brown.

third party candidate for every of-
fice to be voted for in Honston
cognty, if the efforts to organize are !
were barrels, an impromptu en
closure, and a number of busy
men, and here ice-cold lemonade
of splendid quality, was freely and
abundantly served. Beneath the
spreading oaks of the beautifnl
grove, a semi-square table, exten
sive and strong, was abundantly la
den with a splendid dinner, of
which all present were cordially
invited to partake. None refused
this hospitable ■ invitation, but it
was in quantity too much for the
combined attack. The spread was
just splendid, great quantities of
fish, chickens, fried, baked and in
pies, pork,—but' we can’t enumer
ate—the menu was complete and
most satisfying, better than which
no picnic guest ever enjoyed.
.After dinner the children enjoy
ed their old-time (but ever new
in pleasure) games, and their mer
ry laughter made joyous the en
tire surroundings. We didn’t hear
what the young people who talked
in pairs said to each other, but the
substance can be -guessed. Cer
tainly they didn’t advocate or de
sire the presence of a third party.
Candidates were present, galore,
and as usual they were cordial,
agreeable and gentlemanly. (We
8re told that their presence will in
a considerable degree enable the
Sunday school authorities to pur
chase an organ for Andrew Chap
el.)
Altogether, the occasion was a
complete success, affording un
bounded pleasure to -all who at
tended, showing that the good peo
ple of Dennard and viciuity cannot
be surpassed in hospitality, and
that the ladies who prepared the
dinner are gen nine artists in ar
ranging for such occasions.
May happiness, comfort and
prosperity be with them continu T
ally.
j will meet for the purpose of inau
gurating the political campaign of
of the season.
•It has been our cnslom for many
years to select oar democratic can
didates by primary election, and
there will be no chaBge this year.
The features of the discussion will
be, chiefly, whether or not there
shall be two primaries,one to nom
inate candidates for the legislature
and delegates to the state conven
tion, and one to nominate county
officers; or one for all. Then the
time of holding the priipary, or
primaries. The question of time
affects the farmers more directly
than the town people,and the com
mitteemen should be prepared to
say what the people desire. Were
the candidates considered, they
most likely would declare for two
primaries; and an early date for
each. . .Unless a primary is held
earlier thau August, some provis
ion must be made earlier for the-
selection of delegates to the guber
natorial convention.
There will be politics on anoth
er line, also, as those who favor
the third party have been called to
meet in Perry next Saturday to
discuss the political situation, and
determine whether or not the third
party shall be organized in Hons
ton county.
Then the teachers’ institute will
meetiD monthly session, and dis
cuss the programme that has been
prepared for the occasion. While
we are not authorized to say it, we
presume the white teachers will
meet in the college building, and
the colored teachers in Day ? s Hall.
Still another meeting of public
interest will be held, that of the
Confederate Veterans’ Association
of Honston connty. The pur
pose of this meeting is to dis
cuss matters pertaining to the
annual re-anion at Perry in July
next. An official call from Pres-
Norwood is published elsewhere in
this issue.
Doubtless the full number of
candidates will be in Perry that
day.
Byron and Vicinity.
BY PHILETU3 PHIMILY.
Mr. Wm. Avery has commenced
building his house, ivhich will be a’
very substantial structure.
Messrs. Jack Peavy. T. D. War

Miss Fannie Hill is one of Ma

Byron has cause to feel proud o!
the following yonog gentlemen,
who are now prospering remarka
bly well in Macon and other cities-
John Baskin, Joseph Harper,
Walter Walton, Clabe Bateman,
Ernest DnPree and Charlie Wal
ton. These young men were p.ll
reared in Byron, and are esteemed
very highly by all who know them.
Among older Byronites who
have sought their fortuues in other
towns are Charlie Peavy, Emmett
Barnes, Charlie Aultmau, Joe Hol-
leman, ColS. J. N. Batemau, Chas.
Holleman, and Jerome DnPree,
the three latter among Atlanta’s
prominent attorneys. These are
all honored citizens in their re
spective homes. Byron’s wish
ought to be, to raise more" such
men.

W. M, Gordon, of Macon, aDd Mr.
C. P. Marshall, of Perry, brother
and brother-in-law of the deceased,
went down, and the body was
brought to Perry, and Monday af
ternoon the interment took place

The deceased was the youngest
sjn of Mr. and Mrs. John Gordon,
of Perry, and was about 40 years
old.
Five'or six years ago he gradu

lanta, aud foi*a time practiced"den
tistry near Atlanta. He then re
turned to Perry; and about a year
ago be went to Florida. A short
time before leaving Perry he be
came a member of the Methodist
church, and since then his life has
beeu that of a consistent Christian.
He had never married.
There are many here who were
his sincere friends, and these and
all our citizens extend their ten-

parents, brother, sisters, and other
near relatives.

BT THE JUDGE.
Rain is very mtfch needed and
very mnch desired in this commu
nity, and if it was the will and
good pleasure of kind Providence
to bless us with copious showers,it
would be realized as a great tem
poral blessing bestowed upon us,
and cause us to exclaim, “What
shall we render unto the Lord for
all of his benefits to us?”
Vegetables are suffering, and
their growth very much deterred
oats heading very low, and poor
stands of cotton. A great many of
the cotton seed were planted abont
the commencement of the drouth
and the land being freshly pre
pared, the moisture escaped before
the seed had time to sprout, conse
quently failed to come up, aad will
not come until the earth is made
moist by the blessing we receive
from above. Good stands of corn
on some farms, and poor on others,
and very small for this season of
the year.
Mr. J. W. Taylor has added
much to the appearance of his
store houses by having them paint
ed, and trimmed in red. Wes
Tharp did the painting.
Mr. J. O. Wardlaw has selected
beautiful location ou which to
build him a nice dwelling- house.
He has the lumber on the ground,
waiting for the mechanics.
Mr. W. M. Davis has lumber on
the ground to erect a livery stable.
He proposes to serve the people
who visit onr village in that capac

The Doctor wants to go fishing,
but had rather postpone it until

Editor Home Journal:
Please allow me, through the
medium of your journal, to call
attention to the association, as well
as to ali other old soldiers not
members, that our annual re-union
will be on the 21st of July next,
and if desirable and practicable,
also the barbecue occasion similar
to last year.
- Quits a number of veterans have
approached me on the subject, and
fell, to a man, iusist on a barbecue
or basket dinner, hereafter to be
determined, regardless of hard
times. -The one saying he has a
.pig, the other a goat, while Clint
TJnncan says, “I will not fail to be
on hand with my ’possnm and bag

The present outlook for a barbe
cue seems to equally as bright as
our natural surroundings, or to ful
ly justify me in making the call up
on all old soldiers in the county
feeling an interest in the matter,
to assemble at the court house in
Perry, on the 14th inst, the day of
the county executive committee
meeting, that we may obtain the
sense of the association, and take
whatever steps may be necessary
to the proper and pleasant con
