To Be Inspected.
Captain Bozelle, of the regular
army, will inspect the Candler Horse
Guards on tomorrow night. The of
ficers state the Guards will measure
fully up to thestandard required both by
the state and national authorities. The
equipment and rifles are in the best
of shape and the members drill like
old timers. Splendid discipline prevails
among the men as was fully shown by
the manner in which they performed
their duty while on guard in the city
recently. The Candler Horse Guards,
though one of the youngest military
organizations in service in this state,
is considered one of the best, and
Gainesville is justly proud of her troop
of cavalry.

Contract For The Reconstruc
tion of Gainesville Cot
ton Mills.
Mr. G. H. Millikin, son of Mr.
Seth Millikin, the principal stock
holder in the Gainesville Cotton
Mills, was in the city last Friday
looking over the tornado stricken
district, and viewing the ruins of
the mill. After consulting with a
number of local stockholders, Mr.
Millikin announced that the mill
would be rebuilt, and that a stock
holders’ mepting would be held at
Spartanburg, S. C., on July 14th,
or 15th to definitely determine ex
actly what action would be taken
in the way of reorganization and
putting the mill again on it’s
feet.
The mill will be put in better
shape than ever by the company,
and in a few months will be giv
ing employment to as many peo
ple as formerly worked there.
Mr. V. M. Montgomery tele
phoned to the local directors Sat
urday that Mr. Milikin and the

a meeting of all the directors in

of the mill. It is probable that
this meeting will be held.

the reconstruction of the mill
to G. H. Cutting & Co., and work
will begin at once. Already the
loose brick on the walls and the
debris around the mill is being
cleared up. It wont be long before
the mill will be running again,
and the large number of opera
tives will again be at their work.
A Benefit Deserving Of Praise.
One of the most unique and en
tertaining benefits yet given for
the aid of the Gainesville sufferers
was the one gotten up by the lit
tle boys of Race street and given
at the residence of Mr. and Mrs.
H. N. Merck last Friday evening.
The entertainment consisted of a
melo-drama in countless acts, the
principal actors being Hubert
Merck, Phillip Shutze and Wiilie
Logan. Abe Merck and Willie
Porter were the efficient stage
managers. The plot was entirely o-
riginal and each played his part to
perfection. Phillip Shutze’s rec-
citation “Sim’s GirP’ was highly
amusing, and the finale—a cake
walk—literally “took the cake.”
The amount taken in was the
neat little sum of $1.70, which
was turned over to Treasurer Cas
tleberry, and will aid materially
m alleviating the suffering of
some of the stricken ones.
After the entertainment, delici
ous cream and cake were served.
