One of our fishermen went to mill down to Houston Factory last week, and was given permission to fish by Mr. Em mett Woodard,manager of that mill. However, fishing is not prohibited m that pond, but this fisherman was not accustomed to that rule, so he asked permission to try his luck aud it was granted. He caught enough fish for two messes for his family. Mr. Woodard is quite accommodat- H you want to go fishing and have no tackle, -that is the place to go. Just get you some bait and go ahead; and Mr. Woodard will pro vide you with tackle to fish as long as you please, if it is all day. One of our best farmers was a lit— tie too fast this year—he planted- corn very early, before the big rains, and he failed to get a stand,, so he had to plant over. But he Will not be entirely behind, for some are not through planting corn yet. Elaer W. W. Childs filled his reg ular appointment at Fellowship Church last Sunday. - He preached an excellent sermon to'-a large con gregation. Besides Elder Childs, there were two. visiting ministers, Bevs. T. J. Eeynolds of Toy and A. A, Garret of Eort Valley. They have the promise of the presence of Elder Curtis of Jones county at the next meeting. Mr. R. C. Aultman has the finest corn in this section. He has a very good stand, and it is large enough to plow. Our school teacher has purchased a new horse and buggy, and he is prepared to ride now, a3 well as any of the young men. ' Mr. L. B. Aultman of Crawford county, who left this community a year or two ago, has many friends here who regret to hear of his recent severe illness. We hope Mr. Ault man will soon recover. Mr. Hartley is determined to have a dog, as he has obtained another since the death of Ornament. If any one kills this one he will be minus a dog again. Mr. S. W.

Mr. J. S. Haley has added to his house a room and veranda. Mr. E. H. Wimberly, Jr., has repaired his house, Mr. C. I. Bass is re-covering his, Mr. J. T. Ellis has made a won derful improvement in his, and a railroad movement is next in order. Mr. J. M. Bunn is wearing smiles; he was heard to exclaim last Sunday morning, “By grabs, it’s an Easter plowboy,” Messrs. H. R. Brown and W. S. Ellis were jumping around a few days ago—the former a girl and the latter a boy—and I learn that I am grandpa again—a boy. His papa was so proud that he came up from Cordele to let his friends know about it. Surely the population is increas ing. The grain crop is looking well. Mr. Willie Gilbert has 25 or 30 acres of the best wheat we hare seen. We have had nice rains, the weath er is pretty and everything pfomis- ing. Misses Mattie. Miller and Marilu Wellons went up to Perry last Fri day and returned Sunday evening on the shoofly. Dr. E. C. Brown informs me that the health of our community is very good.

Home Journal a stock company has purchased a portion of the land upon-which my millpond is located. After taking legal counsel and in vestigating my rights in the prem ises, I am convinced that this com pany has a right to catch the fish, in the pond extending over this land, by using nets or in any way they see fit. The fact that they can do this and that they can throw open this part of the pond to the public, will make the revenue from the sale of fish caiight in the other parts of my pond practically worthless. I have decided, therefore, in view of the above facts, not to prohibit any fur ther fishing in my pond. I reserve a small portion of the pond on the side adjoining my home lot and my pasture. Of course, I only expect parties to catch fish for their own use and not for market. A. J. Houser. This April 16 th, 1901. Loyd & Genter’s Show.

Daughters of The Confederacy. Members of the Houston Coun ty Chapter of the Daughters of the Confederacy met at j the home of Capt. F. M. King April 11th. Mre. King presided with grace and tact. The reception room was beauti fully decorated with flowers, vines and potted plants. Beautiful silk en flags of the different nations waved gracefully as the breath of spring came gently through the open windows. As we looked up on these emblems of national pride, we thought of our own glo rious, flag, and a wave of love and devotion swept over our souls. Our president, an enthusiastic worker, is also an artist in the ar rangement of flowers, and on this occasion the artist and patriot joined heart and hand. In the center of the room, rest ing on a table, lay ou,r own beau tiful Confederate flag formed of flowers. As we bent over the sweet blossoms, we thought as these spring up year after year, so the memory of other days and love for our own southern cause will spring up and bear fruit in other hearts in the years to.come. The business of the chapter was interesting and successfully car ried out. Tlie charter has been received, most :of the applications have been made out and will soon be sent to the registrar of the state division. We fear the crosses of honor will Dot be on hand in time to be stow them on worthy veterans by Memorial day. It was decided that each vefcer an who receives a cross will be* asked to make a,condensed sketch of his service during the war, and that same be put on file for fu ture use. Relics and memorials of the war will be thankfully received bv the chapter. The meeting adjourned with the happiest feelings, and'with the hope that every member would consider it a pleasure and a dutv to participate in this grand work. Mrs. L. S. Tounsley, Cor.
