Edwards is now occu pying the Suggs residence, near the S. A. L. depot. Profs, Maxwell and Flanagan were here during the week, at tending Superior court. Mrs. H. E.

Jones and charming daughter, Miss Bertie, were in the city a short while last week. Mr.Thos. W. Mitchell, of Mo bile. Ala , is spending a few weeks with his pareuts in this city. Mr. W. O.

O. Perry, of Carl, spent severul days here last week. Mr. Perry will enter the State Univer sity this fall. Mr. Brittan, of Birmingham, brother of Mrs. Bloodworth, re turned home Monday with his lit tle son, Gratton. Mr. John Carr, official stenogra pher of the superior court, is prov ing himself very efficient iu the discharge of his duties. Judge Russell has fixed a high price for blind tigers—sßso and costs. This ought to break up the illicit traffic in whisky. The rock foundation for the new Baptist church has been finished, and the work of laying the brick is being pushed right along. Arch Peeples has accepted a po sition with the Atlanta Cotton Seed Oil Co., as stenographer, and gone there to assume his duties. Marsh Rookmore got 40 of the 50 bales of cotton sold here Tues day. Marsh -says he is “strictly iu it.” Mr. Jas. D. Williams, of Trip, speaks of selling out his valuable farm this fall and moving to New ton county.

The Law and Order League of Duluth is doing a great work in suppressing blind tigers iu that section. Every district in the county should have a league of this kind to drive this curse from our county. COTTON MARKET. Lawrknckville, Ga., Sept. 15, Strict Middling, .... . 0.10 Middling, 5.07 Farm for rent. Apply to W. B. | Cooper. The licensed sale of liquor is j preferable to blind tigers. Luther Cain, of the Atlanta Constitution, was here several days this week. The mail who buys “blind tiger” liquor is only a notch above the vendor, and a law should be en acted making its purchase a crime. The present grand jury seems to be putting in good time. Forty eight bills last week, to say noth ing for five days’ work this week. Mr. E. Kendrick has accepted' a position with the Bauk of Winder, after serving as Examiner of the Witham Banking Co. for the past few weeks. If the present severe penalties do not break up the “tigers” why not try a “dispensary?” is the question being asked by a good many citizens. J. A. Ambrose & Co., are doing a big business iu lumber and building material. They shipped a carload of finished lumber to Loganville this week. The evil doers are trembling in their boots, and tho “tiger” emit< a suppressed growl of discontent nr the turn affairs are taking. On with the good work. Rev. J. L. King, of Atlanta, is iu the city this week. Mr. King was for many years a resident of this place, and his many friends are always glad to see him. The Lawreuceville Branch rail road is getting a good share of the cotton business this season, which is as it should be. The little road is a home enterprise and should be encouraged. Attention is directed to the ad vertisement of W. F. Herrington in this issue. Mr. Herrington keeps a first-class livery stable, and is ready to serve the traveling public at Duluth. The “Blind tiger” is a greater evil than the negro in democratic primaries. Both are glaring evils, and the News-Herald wants both eliminated from our county. Down with the tiger! Two true bills were turned, it is said, against Henry McDaniel for burglary by the grand jury just adjourned. McDaniel got wind of this and has gone to parts best known to himself. The Presbyterian church ser vices will continue under leader ship of Dr. Bachman for the next week. Preajhing every dav at 10 a. m., and 8:30 p. m.. fast time. All cordially invited. Mr. J. M. Wallace, of Norcross, was in the city Wednesday, ac companied by his wife and son. Mr. Wallace has recently disposed of his business in Atlanta and contemplates removing to Louisi ana this fall. Dr. T. K. Mitchell had the mis fortune to lose a very fine mare last Monday. He had driven out in the country to visit a patient, and while returning the animal was taken sick, and died before he reached home. Dr. Bachman, of Tennessee, has preached some masterful sermons at the protracted services of the Presbyterian church this week. Our popular pastor, Rev. Pogue, deserves much commendation for securing his services. Cotton made a decline of 10 points in the New York market Tuesday, but the staple went up 20 points iu the Lawrenceville market. New York can’t hold a caudle to Lawrenceville when it comes to buying cotton. The News-Herald printed the tax books for Tax Collector Moore this year, and the job is equal to anything that could be turned out in a city office. Tax Collector Moore is made out of the right kiud of material, for he believes in potronizing home industry. E. M. Clark, of Louisville, Ga., has accepted a position here as a book-keeper in the bank, Emmett S. Freeman having secured the po sition of Cashier of the Bank of Oglethorpe, which was organized for business this week, under the leadership of Mr. W. 8. Witham. The report published in last week’s News-Herald that W. M. Miller had died from the effects of heat proved to be a mistake. Mr. Miller was quite a sick man, but is recovering. His many friends rejoice to know that he is still in the laud of the living, and hope he may be spared many years yet. Mr. W. C. Wall spent Tuesday night with his father-in-law. Judge John P. Webb. Mr. Wall is one of Norcross’ enterpnsiug mer chants and will move into one of Dr. Simpson’s new brick buildings about the 10th of October, at which time he will enlarge his stock of goods. Judge Webb’s office has been placed at the disposal of the la dies who were witnesses iu court this term, and consequently he has had plenty of gcod company. The judge is a most obliging of ficer, and makes no discrimina tions, his urbanity being extended alike to the ladies as well as the gentlemen. FARM FOR SALE.

If you want to borrow money on your land at 7 ami 8 per cent, call on me. I can save you money. L. F. McDohald. Lawrenceville Ga., Sept. 14—3 m. Our people should gpend their money with their homo merchants as much as possible. Atlanta merchants have no interest in Gwinnett county; they pay no taxes here, are not citizens of the “Empire,” and the only thing they want is to jjet all the money out of the county they can. Keep your cash at home by spending it with your home merchants. The race for City Court Solicit or has developed several candi dates. Col. Juhaji’s term expires Jan. Ist, but he will be a candi date for re-appointment. Col. R. W. Peeples and Col. E. S. V. Briaut are also aspirants for the position. Gov. Candler makes the appointment. So far we have heard of no opposition to Judge Winn, whose term oxpires at the same time. We learn that true bills have been found by this grand jury aginst four worthless negroes of Lawrenceville for vagrancy. This is a move in the right direction, and if our city fathers waut to en dear themselves in the hearts of their countrymen they will with out delay pass an ordinance against loitering. Other cities have such an ordinance, and why not Law renceville. ? The Ambrose Hotel will again be under the management of Mr. aud Mrs. T. L. Ambrose after Sep tember 28rd. This hotel is well known to the traveling public uu der their able management, aud its high reputation will not be al lowed to wane, for the drummers all know that Tom Ambrose will have the best the market affords, regardless of expense. Burton Cloud, who is a member of a Texas regiment in the Phil ippines, is enroute home on the transport Pennsylvania. On his arrival in the United States he will be mustered out of the ser vice, at his own request, he having served for the term of hie enlist ment. This is gratifying news to his father, Mr. J. E. Cloud, of Buford, who has felt a deep anx iety for his sou since his depart ure for the islands a year ago. Lawrenceville was alive with wagons laden with cotton Tuesday, something like 50 bales being marketed that day. The best grades sold as high as 6.20, which was 20 to 80 points higher than any other market. The fact of the business is, I.awrenceville pays better prices for cotton than any other southern town. Tuesday’s prices were higher than cotton was selling for in New York. Fact 1 The editor paid a flying visit to Blue Ridge Saturday, returning on Sunday. We feel a friendly interest in that flourishing little city, as we were one of the pio neers, having established the Post there some ten years ago. The town now has a population of over 1000, is the county site of Fannin, and has the shops of the A. K. & N. Ry. Everybody pulls for the upbuilding of the place and the plucky little city is making rapid strides forward. The grand jury has appointed a committee to revise the tax digest and assist Tax Collector Moore in getting the names of the tax de faulters. This committee is now engaged in their work, and the la bor is being performed in system atic order, with the utmost care. The result will be a large increase in taxable values, but the “raises” do not apply this year. Next year, however, Gwinnett will show a very large increase in taxable property, but the rate will no doubt show a decrease. Mrs. Kate Chambers, formerly of Athens, and who is known by many of our older citizens as Miss Kate Shackelford, and who spent a year or two in Lawrenceville vis iting her relatives, was killed a few days ago by a passenger train near Birmingham, Ala. She was walking along one track, saw a train approaching aud stepped from the track to another. A train was appaoaching on this track from the opposite direction, which run over and killed her in stantly. The hay crop growing along the boulevards, streets and thorough fares of the city is ripe for mow ing, but is being sadly neglected by our city fathers. It should bn cut aud cured for the city mule, or else more stock should be turned loose on the streets to keep the grass grazed down more closely. As it now exists, a lady cannot pass aloug any of the side streets off the public square without soil ing her skirts with dew and polen from the grass and weeds. We re spectfully ask our city fathers to mow their hay crop while the sun shines. The case of Sam Smith (c 01.,) charged with the murder of Jim Coker, was nolle prossed last Thursday when the case was called in the Superior court, by order of Judge Russell. However, bills of indictment were found against the negro for selling whisky, and on Wednesday he was convicted, and a fine of SSO imposed. Coker’s friends were greatly surprised and displeased when Judge Russell ordered the case against Smith nolle prossed, but as there was no new evidence forthcoming, there was no use in consuming the time of the court and going to the ex pense of a new trial in the face of the decision of the Supreme court. HEAVY PENALTIES. Judge Russell Imposes Two Big Fines. The Mitchell Brothers, Convicted of Selling Liqnor, Must Pay $350 Each and Cost. In the Superior court Wednes day Judge Russell imposed two heavy fines against violators of the liquor laws of Georgia. Jim and Josh Mitchell, broth ers, who livo in the northwest part of the county, one at Norcross.the other at Pittman, are the names of the unfortunate young men. Both were indicted for selling liquor, and, it is said, they are old violators, and have been plying their illegal traffic for years un punished. Judge Russsell imposed fines amounting to SBSO each against the brothers in addition to the costs. The Law and Order League of Duluth prosecuted the cases, and to its efforts, in a measure, is due the convictions. The League is composed of some of the leading citizens of Duluth district, who have organized to suppress crime and bring violators of thelaw to justice. Judge Russell is determined to break up the blind tigers of Gwin nett county, and to that end is imposing severe penalties. In his laudable efforts he should, and doubtless will, receive the support of every good citizen of the coun ty who wants the dignity of the law upheld and its violators brought to justice. Josh Mitchell was fined $75 ad ditional for contempt of court. He had tampered with a witness. He must either pay $75 or remain in jail 80 days for this offense. The alternative in his liquor cases is three years in the chaingang, The News-Herald has added a great many new subscribers and renewals the past week, Mr. R. A. Ingram, of Coweta county, is located in Lawrence ville, buying cotton for E. S. Ehney & Co., of Atlanta. Mrs. R. F. Cox, of Loganville, and Mrs. B. A. Cox, of Monroe, have been visiting in Lawrence ville for a few days. Mrs. C. W. Ford and children, of Denison, Texas, after spending two months with Col. and Mrs. E. S. V. Briant, left last Monday for their far western home. Herbert S. Allen, son of the famous missionary, Young J. Al len, is visi ing in Lawrenceville. Mr. Allen was assistant cashier of the Bank of Lawrenceville a few vears ago, and his many friends here are glad to see him. Ninety per cent, of the cotton that has come to Lawrenceville thus far has gone through the Globe warehouse. Under the su pervision of Bose Powell we pre dict an exceedingly large increase in the business of the warehouse this season —adv. Atlanta is making great prepar ations to catch the trade of the rural counties this fall by inviting them to the State fair. The fair will no doubt be a good thing, but if our people desire to economize they should not got “oxcited,” for the catch-penny schemes will be as numerous as mosquitoes in summer time down there during its continuance. The road to pros perity is to keep our money at home, buy what you need from your home merchant, and let the city merchant get his trade from the city folk. Col. W. T. Smith, of Buford, desires to be put on record as favoring a white democratic pri mary and for the complete elimi nation of the negro vote. Col. Smith authorized the editor of the News-Herald to so quote him sev eral weeks ago, and the omision last week was au oversight. It is a foregone conclusion that “Cuffy” must stand aside and let the white democrats make the nominations without bis aid, and the News- Herald rejoices that this senti ment is so universally indorsed by the party throughout the county. It is a sure sign of harmony and the harbinger of better times in old Gwinnett. Let the white peo ple stand together as a band of brothers, and our county will grow in honor and greatness. The report became current in the lower part of the county the other day that Mr. T. L. Evans, the pcpular merchant at Centre ville, had bes u shot aud killed by a negro. The news spread rapid ly and created considerable ex citement, but on investigation the report proved utterly groundless. Mr. Evans was in the city Wed nesday and looked like a real, live man—not dead nor asleep. We failed to interview him, but he stated to a number of friends that the report that he was dead was all a mistake. Recently his firm bought out the stock of goods of Grd Hannah, and the two stores have been consolidated, making it one of the largest mercantile es tablishments in the county. Those who visit their store at Centreville will find Mr. Evans very much alive.

Special Services. The pastor of the Methodist church desires to begin special ser vices on the first Sunday in Octo ber. He has secured the aid of Judge W. W. Turner, of LaGrange, to assist him in the meeting. A hearty co-operation is earnestly hoped for from everyone. Arrested for Murder. John Hunter, col., was lodged in jail here yesterday morning on the charge of murder. Ho killed Will McWhorter, col., at Buford the 20, day of May, this year, the partic ulars of which were published in these columns at the time. The present grand jury found a true bill against Hunter for mur der. He will not be tried till the March term of our Superior Court. Hunter was arrested in North Carolina and Constable Hawkius went after him this weak. Death of Mr. W.£. Simvson. Mr, W. R. Simpson, an aged and highly respected citizen of Gwin nett county, living near Norcross, died rather suddenly Saturday morning, iast. He was in his 74th year, and had been ill about one woek. Mr. Simpson was esteemed by his neighbors and friends for his many noble traits of character, was a prominent member of the Methodist church, and bad by his energy and honesty accumulated quite a little fortune. Hia re mains were interred at Mt. Carmel Sunday. Committed Suloids- Mrs. J. H. Pierce, wife of J. H. Pierce, a school teacher and farm er, living near Suwanee, in Forsyth county, committed suicide Tues day evening by taking an overdose of laudanum. Mrs. Pierce was about 30 years of age, and had been in feeble health for some time past, it is supposed despondency, induced by feeble health, caused her to com mit the rash act. Deceased leaves, besides her hus band, several small children, who were present when she adminis tered the deadly drug. However, they did not realize that their mother was seeking her own de struction, aud thought she was only taking medicine Mr, Piorce was off in a corn field pulling fod der, and did not know of his wife’s suicidal intent until he returned home after the day’s work. As soon as he discovered the condition of affairs, Dr. E. D. Little was quickly summoned, and everything possible was done by him to savo the victim’s life, but to no avail. The deadly drug had done its work for the sleep that knows no awaken ing had enveloped her. She died Wednesday morning at 3 o’clock, The interrment took place at Suwanee Wednesday afternoon. It looks as though the days of the worthless dog were numbered. There is quite a decided expression of opinion in favor of a dog law 1 being passed at the next session of the legislature.
