Bob Cole did not join the regu lar army, but enlisted with a Michigan regiment of volunteers. He is with his regiment in Cuba, having left Savannah for the island last week. Matt W.

Mr. John Newton Cooper was up Wednesday selling a lot of cotton. The Coopers are all wide-awake farmers, and can be depended on to make their own meat and bread at home. With cotton as their surplus crop, they have no reason to grumble about “hard times.” but have money in their pockets and meat and bread in the smoke house at all seasons of the year. -*TO THE PUBLIC.*- I am now with THE EVANS-COOPER CO., where I will be pleased to meet my friends. The Evans-Cooper Co., carry a large and well selscted stock of General Mer chandise, and by trading with them I am sure you can be suited, both as to quality and prices of goods. Ladies will find a full and complete stock of Dress Goods and Trimmings to select from, and at prices that will surely attract their attention, Call and see us if you want Full Value for your money. Respectfully. J. A. COFFEE. The weather has been too bad for farm work, hence there is little preparation as yet for the cotton and corn crops. To be entirely relieved of the aches and pains of rheumatism means a great deal, and Hood’s Sarsaparilla does it. Uncle Tom Russell has out thanks for a renewal of his sub scription. He Bays he can’t do without the News-Herald, and al ways keeps his subscription paid up in advance. The Odd Fellows held an inter esting mooting Monday night.

If the vacant city lots in Law renceville could be put on the mar ket at a fair price, the town would take on new life and build up. As it is, property is too high here, and no inducements are offered to new comers. The list of new subscribers and renewals published iu another col umn shows that The News-Herald is popular with the pepple of Gwinnett. We thank them for their patronage, and shall ever strive to merit it together with their good will. Rotund and jovial Mark Coop er, of Rosebud, dropped in to our sanctum Tuesday aud renewed his subscription, taking the Constitu tion and Semi-Weekly Journal along with his county paper. Mark said he wanted the whole “dog-goned business.” M. J. C. Robinson, representing the Baldwin Fertilizer company, was here this week looking after the interests of his company. Their goods are on sale at M. L, Rockmore’s, and he says they will be kept up to their high standard, regardless of the war and low prices. The Life Preserver which has car ried many ladies safely over the dan gerous sea “Change of Life” is Simmons Suuaw Vine Wine or Tablets. There will be a “Laughing Match” in Lawreuceville on the first Tuesday of March Superior court between Dave Rawlins, of Snellville, and N. L Barker, of U-Bet. They are about evenly matched, and aie a jovial pair. The contest promises to be lively and full of fun. The recent rise in cotton is thought by many to be a bait set by Northern cotton manipulators to “catch suckers,” that is, to in duce the planting of another b.g j crop. But here in Gwinnett their game won’t work. Our farmers are going to raise more hog and hominy this year, aud make cot ton a secondary consideration. G.W. & A. P. Cain are prepar ing to erect a neat office building on the space between the Bank and their store. While it will not be as pretentious as the Equitable or Prudential, still it will be a neat and cosy structure, with glass front and rear. Thus Lawrence viile “do move,” and takes'an other step forward as the coming metropolis of Northeast Georgia. Ur. M. A.

The Daughters of the Confeder acy met Wednesday afternoon at the Ewing Hotel. An interesting j program was arranged for the next, meeting, to be held in the parlors of Hotel Ewing Wednesday Feb. 15th. Miss Eva' Vose will read a paper on “The Causes of the War Between North and South;” Miss Daisy Ewing ou “Jefferson Davis,” aud Mrs. Chipley on “Fort Sump ter.” A full attendance of all the I members is earnestly desired, and ! any one desiiing to join should bo present. 1 A Sluggish Liver causes Drowsiness, Lethargy and a feeling of Apathy. 1 Dr. M. A. Simmons Liver Medicine arouses the Liver, and cheerful energy succeeds sluggishness. C. W. Cooper, one of the prog ressive farmers of Bay Creek, was up Wednesday with a few bales of “blues,” feeling of the cotton mar ket, He has about 40 bales of fine white cotton that he is hold ing back for the higher prices, which will, he thinks, come by March Ist. While here Mr. Coop er of course renewed his subscrip tion for the News-Herald. Iu fact, ha won t do without his coun ty paper. Loganville now has a full-fledged guano factory, and while the ca pacity is small, it will increase as the farmers and planters there abouts realize the necessity of patronizing home industry. The factory is owned by M. L. Rock more and William Cooper, and gives employment to three men at present. It is equipped with a bone mill, mixer, etc., and turns out an excellent grade of guano. Success to the new enterprise. Hearing-Down Sensations, Internal Heat and Femaie Weaknesses are cured by the use of Simmons Squaw Vine Wine or Tablets. It is needless to call the read er’s attention to the handsome ad vertisement of the Coweta Fertil izer Co., in this issue. It speaks for itself. Their brands are win ning their way into popular favor in Gwinnett by their superior merit, and Mr. Sasser aud other agents handling Coweta goods will doubtless do a liberal share of the guauo trade of this section this season. They are not in the “trust” and their goods are all right, C. W. Cooper, Jr., aud N. S. Robiusou have consolidate I their stores and formed a co-partnership under the name aud style of Coop er & Robinson. They are both popular young men and experi enced merchants, and expect to keep a fresh and up-to-date slock of general merchandise. They will use the storeroom occupied heretofore by C. W. Cooper, Jr., where their friends and the public generaPy are iuvited to call when wanting bargains. A close observer recently re marked that “Lawrenceville would have to have five or six first-class funerals before she ever amounted to anything.” Without .aking sides with the gentleman, or going into an argument on the merits of his proposition, we will state that he has located elsewhere, as he did not care to wait for the funerals. Even admitting that he is right, the outlook is not at all discour aging to a patient country editor. The News-Herald is doing first rate, thank you! Don’t wreck a Life I From Girlhood to Womanhood the monthly courcses should be regdlated with Simmons Squaw Vine Wine or Tablets. Mr. Burch, our market man, wauts a law passed by the City Council taxing his business, and all others selling fresh meats. He says if such a law is passed it will enable him to keep on hand at all times fresh meats. But as the country people sometimes slaugh ter a beef or a pig and bring it in to sell, it might prevent them from peddling it out in town unless they paid a license, hence there is some opposition to taxing meat markets. However, as Lawreuceville is now a city, she might be justified in putting on city airs by imposing a tax ou “any old thing,” even if it required a Jumbo Huuter to col lect it. What Next. It does seem as though the seedsmen would stop somewhere, but here comes a work of art. Think of it, twenty-four pages lithographed in colors, not gau dy chromos, but from photographs in colors, upon an entirely new plan. This, in itself, is enough to turn every woman’s head. Then follow about one hundred more pages, tilled with hand some haif-lone illustrations of Flow ers, Fruits and Vegetables, photo graphed from nature, all printed on tine paper and enclosed in an elegant cover of white and gold. Vick’s Gar den and Floral Guide also contains full descriptions and directions for plan ting Flowers and Vegetables, Plants, Small Fruits,etc. It explains a new departure in selling Vegetable Seeds by weight in place of old style of pack ets ; also a grand offer giving customers credit foa full amount of purchase to apply on order for implements and useful articles. Tnis splendid work of art will be mailed with a Uue Bill for 25 cents worth of seeds, for only 15 cents. W’rite Jam its Vicks Boss, Rochester, N Y.

In looking through the papers left by the late Judge J. D. Spence last Saturday, Anderson H. Spence came across his last will and tes tament. The document was found inside an old pocketbook that was used for keeping old papers, and which was kept inside the safe. It is written in Judge • Spence’s hand writing, and bears date of Novem ber 18, 1894. It iB witnessed by J, H. McGee, G. T. Ilaney and B. F. McGee. Item Ist provides that his body be interred in a plain manner in a cement vault, shaped after the manner of his first wife. Item 2nd provides that all his property, real or personal, be dis posed of to the very best advan tage forcash, that his solvent debts be collected and the proceeds aris ing therefrom be applied to the payment of all just debts against him. Item 3rd in full is as fellows: “I will and bequeath to rav beloved wife, Alice Cates Spence, all of my said estate during her natural life or widowhood. Should she marry, than and in that case I will and direct that my estate be dividod into three shares, share and share alike, between Cora L McClelland, my daughter (wife of J. E. Mc- Clelland), Clara Oma Spence, my granddaughter (daughter of my deceased son, John H. Spence), and my beloved wife, Alice Cates Spence.” The will further provides that at the death of his wife, whatever she possesses of his estate be di vided equally b- tweeu C,ara Oma Spence and Mrs. Cora McClelland, but that she is to remain in full possession and enjoyment of all the estate during her natural life, or widowhood. Item sth constitutes and ap points (if in life) Anderson H. Spence as his executor to carry in to effect the provisions of his will. At the time of Judge Spence’s death, a search was made for a will, and none could be found, the old pocketbook being overlooked. At last the will is found, and it is a singular co-incidence that An derson 11. Spence was appointed by Judge Webb to wind up the estate, aud has been carrying out to the letter exactly what the will pro vides for. The will has been filed with the Ordinary for probate, and the same will be passed upon at the next term of his co rt. Bucklen's Arnica Salvo.

N. L. Hutchins, Jr., has ut.earthed quite a lot of old news papers and other anciei t docu ments in his law office, among ttie papers left by his grandfather. Among them is a bound volume of the “American Farmer,” pub lished in Baltimore, for the year 1828. It contains much interest ing and valuable information on the current topics of that day and time One item that attracted especial attention was this, printed in the issue of April 11th, 1828: COTTON SEED WHISKEY.—This modern discovery, like many others, was accidental. The gentleman, a Mr. Gray, of Georgia, in a careless moment, suffered his cotton seed and corn td be thrown together; and corn being scarce, he threw the cotton seed with the corn into the brewery. The result, viz: the quantity of whiskey, arrested his attention. He then mixed half and half,and Anally sold without any detec tion in the taste. He then went on to try all cotton seed, throwing a peck of meal into each hogshead, to cause fer mentation. This produced a vigerous extrication of gas; and a large quanti ty of oil, bland and of drying quality weil suited for painting, was produced and the quantity of whiskey was ex traordinary from the cotton seed .
