FOR THE LITTLE ONES,
Judge J. J. Kimsey, and da ugh
ter, of Cleveland, were in Gaines
ville a few days "of last week.
He Curried Mules, but Afterward Won
' a Fortune.
Once there was a boy of the name
of Hugh McGowan who went to
Kansas City in search of work. He
found this at the stables of the
street car company, and the work
consisted largely in currying mules.
The currying of mules is not an at
tractive vocation, but Hugh never
grumbled, and he sent them out to
work looking more fit than they
ever had in all the history of rapid
transit in Kansas City. He curried
those mules so faithfully that now
he does not have to curry mules any
more. McGowan is now a rich man
with millions" of dollars under his
control. He had reached the age of
forty before he had earned so much
as $100 a month.
No nian can rise to fame by the
mere process of currying mules, but
if this duty fall to his lot he can do
it so well as to show what is in him.
Thus did McGowan;he attracted the
attention of his superiors and was
promoted to the driving of a car.
Then he got on the police force;
all stations humble enough. After
awhile the agent of a big concern
visited Kansas City and while there
sought to find a suitable man to
represent his concern. McGowan
was chosen not merely because he
had curried mules well, but that
be had gone into every field in
spired always by the motive to do
the best he could* tie i& ilQw forty-
. When a man toils all day, the
heat intensifying hie discomfort,
he is glad to approach the evening
shades, when the heat is modified
and he can rest from his labors.
The slavery of existence has its
compensation in the reward of ear

Invited to One Oct. 11th,
The Southern Inter-State Fair, At
lanta, has invited all the Georgia Edi
ters to visit the Fair Saturday Octo
her 11th.
The Editors will be given a barbecue
and shown all the sights on the
grounds. Front seats will be reserved
for them in the grand stand at the
races in the afternoon, and there will
be a magnificent display of fireworks
for them at night.
The Fair Directors appreciate the aid
which the daily and weekly papers
always give to the fairs, and they de
sire in this way to shoyr their appre,
datum.
GEORGIA'S MAYORS.
The Mayors of Georgia will hold a
convention in Atlanta Tuesday, Oct.,
Ulh. Mayor Mims, of Atlanta, has
called the convention, and Mayor
Bridges Smith, of Macon, will pro
side.
In the afternoon, the Mayors will be
tendered a barbecue by the Inter-State
Fair, and they will be the Fair’s guests
that day and night.
SKY-LINE ON A BUTTON.
Atlanta has more tali buildings than
any other southern city. The Equit
able, eight. stories high, was the first
modern office building erected there.
They have been building taller ones
ever since. The Empire is fourteen
stories high, and now one of the banks
is getting ready to build a sky-scraper
sixteen stories high on v a corner lot.
The lot costs $145,000 six months ago.
Sixty years ago t-iis lot sold for $500.
Frank Weldon, Secretary of the
Fair, has adopted a picture of tall
buildings as a fit emblem for an At
lanta button to advertise the big fair,
October 8-25.
Buffaloes which once roamed the
western plains in herds numbering
thousands, are now almost extinct.
It is seldom that a buffalo is seen
outside Yellow Stone Park, where the
Government is frying to preserve a
few specimens of this animal. Half
a dozen parks and menageries have
from one ^o half a dozen buffaloes.
The Southern Inter-State Fair,* At
lanta, is negotiating for a small herd
to be exhibited free at the fair
grounds.
$25,000 IN PREMIUMS.
Copies of the Atlanta Fair’s live
stock, poultry and other premium
lists have been revised at this office:
The Fair offers $25,000.00 in premiums
and purses. Copy of the premium list
may be obtained by writing Frank
Weldon. Secretary, Atlanta.
. The Fair has spent thousands of
dollars in former years on its live
stock shows.
In order to bring out more home cat
tle, the entries for cattle premiums
this year are restricted to the south.
In former years, the professional ex
hibitors from the north and west have
come south and carried away thous
ands of dollars in prizes.
This time the money is offered only
to southern herds, and it is believed
that this will bring out a large dis
play of home cattle.
Booker Washington, the great
est negro of his race, made a very
able address at the negro congress
in Atlanta. We quote the follow
ing from his address: “I want to
gee an influence go out of this
meeting that shall if possible, take
every young negro oft the street
corners and from the bar rooms,
north and south. I want to see a
lifting up and ^purifying of the
character of our ministers in every
part of the country.”

The Average Man.
What a delightful person he is,
the average man, and how the
heart goes out to him in special
gratitude now and again. He has
never writtm a magazine article,
sunk a v ar hip, discussed a polit
ical or economical situation n^the
people’s column of bis paper or
made stump speeches; he never
preached a man into heaven nor
tempted him into the roads that
lead to the other place; he loves
his wife and children, works for his
daily bread and enjoys it; proba
bly has his little personal sins and
personal hobbies, but doesn’t inflict
them on you. He doesn’t make
manv d ’monstrations of friendship

is down on his luck ; he quietly
