Since the purchase of the Han

carried by any mercantile house
in the “Empire” of Gwinnett, and
as they mean business they do not
keep sifch a large stock simply to
look at, but to sell—consequently,
their trade extends to the four
corners id the county.

Fall and Winter Goods, Hardware

to Centreville if they would save
money.
A Destructive Fire.
Wednesday night about 9o’clock
fire broke out in the corn crib of
Mr. M. E. Ewing and destroyed a
considerable amount of property.
The crib, buggy house, barn, feed
house aud stables were all burned.
Besides the buildings, there were
a number of bushels of corn, 100
bushels of wheat, a large amount
of fodder and a valuable mule
burned up.
The citizens responded at the
first alarm, but owing to the char
acter of the buildings but little
could be saved. The fire was just
across the street from the Baptist
church, and that building wi s in
imminent danger. Considerable
damage was done to the pews and
fixtures iu removing them from
the building.
Many theories are advanced as
to the cause of the fire, but its
true origin may never be known.

Whitworth- -Davis.
On Tuesday evening. Oct., 10th,
our famous bachelor, Mr. R. B.
Whitworth, will throw off the
yoke of servitude (bachelorism)
and don the ties of nuptial vows,
by joining hands with one of
Gwinnett’s most prominent young
ladies, Miss Nancy Davis.
Owing to the prominence of the
contracting parties, this will be
one of the greatest social events
of the season. Judge Whitworth,
ex-Ordiuary of this county, is one
of the most prominent men of
this section of Georgia. He h. Id
the office of Ordinary for one term,
and discharged the duties of the
office with great efficiency.
Miss Davis is a young lady of
rare prominence, and numbers her
friends by the score. She is high
ly possessed of the many qualities
that go to make a real woman.
The marriage will take place at
the home of the bride, three miles
iu the couutry. After the cere
mony the happy young party that
will witness the marriage will re
turn to the home of the groom’s
father, where the remainder of
the evening will be spent.

THE ‘'SUBPLUS.”
"Tax Payer” Wants to Know What Has
Become of It.
Mr. Editor : —As you are taking
such an active interest in the fi
nance of this county, and have
done more for her interest in this
respect than any other man in it,
will you please tell the readers of
your paper what has become of the
SB,OOO surplus we had in the hands
of the treasurer after paying the
expenses of September Superior
court, 1898. I desire thi- infor
mation, as, according to our last
grand jury, after the expenses of
the term just passed are paid, we
will have practically nothing left
in the treasury. Yours for re
ducing unnecessary expanse of this
county, Tax Paykr.
The information asked for in
the above card is a pertinent in
quiry, and concerns every tax pay
er in the county, no matter how
small the amount he pays. The
News-Herald is anxious to publish
an exhibit of the expenditur s of
the county, aud tenders space in
its columns free of charge to the
proper authorities for such publi
cation.
We take it that at the next
meeting of the Board of County
Commissioners an order will be
granted allowing Treasurer Jacobs
to make up a statement for publi
cation, said statement to show
who got the money and for what
purpose it was paid.
The News-Herald does not pre
sume to say that any extravagance
has been indulged iu, or that un
necessary expenditures have been
made, but we do contend that pub
licity should be given to the ex
penditure of all public monevs.
The officers of the county are but
the servants of the people, and
the people have a right to know
their every act, and to what use
every penny of the public funds
expended was put.

Death of Mrs. Smith.
Death has again visited our com
munity and taken away one of
Walton’s most highly respected
ladies.
Mrs. Mary E. Smith, wife of Mr.
John L. Smith, died at the home
of her husband about four miles
from Loganville last Friday night
shortly after nine o’clock, with
heart trouble, aged 64 years.
Mrs. Smith died soon after she
was taken sick, before a physiciau
could reach her.
While she did not belong to
any church or creed, she slways
led an exemplary life—a life that
many professed Christians would
do well to emulate. She always be
lieved implicitly iu the saving
graces of the Savior and lived ac
cording to the golden rule. One of
her best expressions of faith as to
her future existence was this: As
there was always a place prepared
for her in this world, she faithfully
believed there was another prepar
ed for her in the world beyond. A
good motto shy adopted early iu
life was, “Business before pleas
ure.”
She leaves a husband and 9 chil
dren, 88 grand-children and one
great-grand-chiid, and to these the
sympathies of many friends is ex
tended. Her surviving children
are Mr. C. C. George of Logan
ville ; Mr. Wm. M George; Mrs.
Martha J. Smith; Mrs. Adeline
Watsouf, Barry, Tex.; Lucy 0.
Watson, Barry,Tex.; A. M. Smith,
Alief, Tex.; J. T Smith, Barry,
Tex.; Mrs. Ida M.Booth and Luke
Smith, Gwinnett county.
Her remains were interred in the
burial ground at Shiloh church
last Saturday evening, Rev. Mr.
Park officiating. A large concourse
of the bereaved relatives and
friends were present to witness the
last sad rites. —Progress.
Capt- John Ware Makes a Bold Hold Up.
Capt Ware was out in Ben
Smith’s district Monday night of
last week keeping surveliance of
some supposed moonshiners, and
much to his surprise they were
cane-grinders. The Captain was
I assiug by and saw a light that
presented every appearance of a
typical illicit distillery. Of course
the Captain is sufficiently up to
his business to take in the situa
tion before making a raid, so he
crouched himself upon the mother
earth and quietly snoozed while
the cutting of wood and chunking
of fire continued. This was to be
the raid of the season. Two double
teams were seen to stop at the
distillery, voices of half a dozen
men were heard —certainly it could
be nothing less than a 200-gallon
copper. After two hours of in
tense anxiety the syrup was all
made and preparations began for
moving. Captain makes a circu
lar microscopical movement and
plants himself squarely in the
center of the intended move.
Many were the great thoughts of
the Captain. He could but ask
himself if Providence had sent his
piercing eye in pursuit of the flick
ering light The old man felt
good as he heard the rattle of the
syrup pan coming nearer. Now
the Worses’ heads could be seen

to return to Atlanta; in order to do so he had to close out his bus
