Oscar Brown at the memorial exercise* by the Daughters of the Confederacy at the court houte on last Thursday: Fair daughters of the Confederacy, Your work is a noble one; And, if any honor and love you, ’Tig the loyal Confederate song. Your deeds receive their recompenge, Your acts show love for the cause, And your memory of the heroes of the South Will ever challenge and claim our applause. The historic muse will cherish The motives that prompt you to this. A memorial service of the gallant dead Who rest in eternal bliss. We cherish and love the living, The dead we memorialize, And the heroism of our fathers We’ll forever eulogize. A lost cause, a manly surrender, Will never our patriotism sever. For we are sous and daughters of Dixie, And thus will be forever. This beautiful southland of ours Is the garden gpot of the world, Aud ere long, before we are gone. We’ll the victor’s banner unfurl. With rippling waters and laughing brooks, With mountains and valleys galore. With fertile soil and purest air— Wo should not ask for more. The north turns a critical eye this way And wonders at the inexhaustible supply Of gold, iron and other ore. But it is ours, and they’ll have to buy. It is ours to be rich and great; So let us be true to ourselves. Let us be loyal to our country, The land where patriotism dwells. Oh that every voice go up to God For the glorious South »f today, And in a seven-fold hallelujah; For ’tis the land of those who wore the grey. • Yea, braver men were never born. Their valor to display, And truer men have never lived Than those who wore the grey. We jive in charge their names To go thundering through the ages. Unequaled as statesmen and soldiers And unparalleled as modern sages. A greater than Lee has never lived/. With a heart full of zeal for God; And a greater hero than Jackson Was never laid neath the sod. The soldierboys who rallied to them So gallant in battle array, Were just as true, loyal and great, Because all of them wore the grey. So let us honor our dead heroes With eulogies and llowers today. And let our Southern youth be taught To honor those who wore the grey. Many of them sleep among strangers In tombs on distant land; Yet, theylll never be forgotten So long as our institutions stand. May the sons of the Confederate dead. Where patriotism ever dwells. Live for their country and always sustain The scenes it makes in memory’s cells. Grand and glorious Confederate ilag, It's bars and stars we’ll never condemn, For ’twill always find a resting place In the hearts of Southern men. I wish I could in sculpture engrave A name where each Confederate lay; I’d carve in stone, I’d carve in brass. I’d immortalize those who wore the grey. To you, fair daughters, we lend Our voices, our hearts and our name, To ever perpetuate the memory Of Confederate heroism and fame. CBUSE. Rev.

The industrial Department of the Seaboard Air Line has hit upon a rather novel way of ad vertising the resources of the sec tion through which the S. A. L. passes It is to be done through the medium of Struct Fairs and Carnivals. Just now the Street Fairs and Carnivals seem to be the most popular attraction for progressive towns and cities to use as a means of drawing trade for their various industries. Thu Street Fairs cause to visit the towns thousands of people who spend money with the hotels and boardihg houses, and thereby the butchers and bakers get more orders for their products. Thousands of dollars are spent with merchants, milliners, barbers, blacksmiths, shoemakers, and in turn the mechanics and laborers all get their share. On an average, these Fairs bring to a small town five thous and visitors, and to a town the Bize of Lawrenceville, ten thous and. If each visitor only spends one dollar with our hotels, busi ness people and others interested, it would leave in the place ten thousand dollars. On this there would probably be a profit of twenty per cent., or two thousand dollars. To get up such a fair would cost the merchants above all income of rents from shows, privileges, etc., about five hundred dollars, and this would leave a profit of SISOO for the business men of the town, besides the general advantage and pleasure it w'ould he to the people generally, therefore any town can afford to spend SSOO to get in re turn SISOO. These Fairs give a general impetus to trade and bus iness that lasts long after the fan week. They put new life into the people and in various ways help them and the place. The Seaboard Air Line, always fully up to date and the first to see how to turn new enterprises to advantage, has worked out a plan that enables the progressive towns along its line to get the ad vantages of these Street Fairs and Carnivals at lower rates than any other towns have yet received them. In the usual method of holding the Fairs, a town gets some experienced person to ar range for the Fair; the attractions and decorations are used just for the Fair, and it is quite costly, for some of the attractive features, such as balloonists, rope walkers, etc., etc., have to be brought for thousands of miles, and cost con siderable railroad fare, besides their salaries. The decorations, flags, bunting, etc., are used for the one occasion, and when the fair is over if the town people have not spent more than SSOO above what they have taken in, they are lucky. The Industrial Department has made a contract with an expe rienced Fair Manager, Dr. Harry Redan, who goes over the entire line of road, and each week holds a Fair and Carnival at some prog ressive towu on the line. These Fairs are not held nearer than within fifty miles of each other, the attractions go to each Fair, and a large part of the decora tions can be used at all of them; by this combination, a great sav ing results, which enables the towns to have the Fairs and Car nivals at about one half what it would cost them if they had to organize and manage the Fair themselves. It is estimated that there will QUESTION ANSWERED. Yes, August Flower still has the largest sale of any medicine in the civilized world. Your mothers and grandmothers never thought of using anything else for Indiges tion or Billiousneas. Doctors were scarce, and they seldsm heard of Appendecitis, Nervous Prostration or Heart Failure, etc. They used August Flower to clean out the system and stop fermentation of undigested food, regulate the ac tion of the liver, stimulate the nervous and organic action of the system, and that is all they took when feeling dull and bad with headaches and other aches. You only need a few doses of Green’s August Flower, in liquid form, to make you satisfied there is noth ing serious the matter with you. Sample bottles at Bagwell Drug Store. Lawrenceville, R. O. Med lock, Norcwiss, Smith A Harris, Suwauee. LAWRENCEVILLE, GEORGIA, THURSDAY, MAY 3. 1000. he a nice little sum of money above expenses at each of the | fairs, coming in from the small admission fees charged at the gato and such amusing features as are to be seen at all first class fairs. This surplus fund, the Manager of the Fairs, Dr. Harry Redan, is under contract with each town to deposit in the hands of Mr. John T, Patrick, Chief Industrial Agent of the S. A. L., to be used in car rying the products of the town north ai.d exhibiting them in the northern towns and cities during the next three years, commencing late this fall, if he gets over the line early enough. The plan is, teat the Doctor holds the Fairs in the towns along the S. A. L., he is to offer pre miums for the best products of the sections, and in this way get the farmers to bring out the finest specimens of field crops, woods, mineral, timber, etc., and the best of these are selected and arranged in attractive shape for the north ern exhibit. Dr. Redan is to pre pare printed matter descriptive of each town and section he visits, and the pamphlets are to be dis tributed by the thousands at the Fails and Carnivals north. This is without auy question the most economical, practical aud effect ive way of advertising the re sources of auy section, and the S. A. L. is to be commended for being so prompt in seeiug how the Street Fairs and Carnivals could be used for two good purposes: one, to bring business to the mer chants of its town, and the other to give the towns the biggest and most effective advertisement they nave ever had. We predict that there will not be a town on the line of the S. A. L., but what will fully co-operate with Dr. Redan, the gontlemau with whom the Industrial Depart ment is working to carry out this great piece of work. Dr. Redan was at Lawrenceville and the Mayor called a meeting of the citizens of the place, and they at ouce pledged the necessary guarantee and our town and sec tion will be one of tbe progressive number that will co-operate in the advertising enterprise. Later on we will give a full de scription of the Street Fair and Carnival, with illustrations and -we will also tell of the attractive way in which Dr. Redan is to place our resources up north. The people who live along the S. A. L. have cause to be thankful that they have such a wide awake, progressive railroad management, and those who do not have the S. A. L. running through their territory are to be sympathized with. Hurrati for the grand old S. A. L. with her new life, new growth ! And, hurrah for the people who are endeavoring to join with the S. A. L. in all good works. We extend to the near-by towns the thanks of our people tor their assurance of hearty co-operation in making our Fair and Carnival a great success, and we will see that they get a share of the good that is to come from the adver tising of the resources of their section. HIS LIFE WAS SAVED. Mr. J. E. Lilly, a prominent citizen of Hannibal, Mo., lately had a wonderful deliverance from a frightful death. In telling of it he says: “I was taken with Ty phoid Fever, that ran into Pneu rnr.nia. My lungs became hard ened. I was so weak I couldn’t even sit up in bed. Nothing help ed me, I expected to soon die of Consumption, when I heard of Dr. King’s New Discovery. One bot tle gave great relief. I continued to use it, and now am well and strong, I can’t say too much in its praise.” This marvellous medi cine is the surest and quickest cure in the world for all Throat and Lung Trouble.

Bussey, one of the best posted men in the south on crop j conditions, said recently that it was practically certain that a largo crop of cotton would not be made this year. “Even in this section of Georgia ai d Alabama,” said he, “the rains are begining to make the situation somewhat serious. A large part of the cotton was freshly planted when the rains set in, so that the lands were easily washed. This is especially true of the hillsides, while in the bottoms so much moisture rots the seed. It is evi dent that stands from the first planting will be very poor, as a rule, and a great deal of replant ing will be necessary. The prob lem now confronting the farmers is where to get the seed for re planting. The first planting prac tically consumed about all the seed in this section In fact, in some cases, the acreage intended for cotton had to be reduced, be cause the farmers could not get the seed. Last fall and winter, prices of cotton seed were a little high, which induced farmere to Bell down their supplies closer than usual. This was especially the case with negro tenants, who, with their usual improvidence, sold pretty much all the cotton seed they had, depending upon their landlords aud white neighbors for their supplies at planting time. “If the rains continue much longer, the situation will become more serious, but it is hardly like ly that the damage will be any thing like bo extensive in this sec tion as in Texas and Mississip pi, and certain portions of Ala bama. The scarcity of seed is gen eral throughout the cotton belt, aud it is very sure that much of the lands overflowed in those states will not be planted in cot ton on this account, even if the farmers had the time to prepare their lands before the* season for planting is over. Even if the rains should cease now, it would be several weeks before the bottom lands would be dry enough to be plowed up and prepared for plant ing.” A number of well known farm ers in the city discussed the scarci ty of cotton'seed aud the necessity for leplanting, advancing pretty much the same views on the sub ject expressed by Colonel Bussey. The warehousemen are takiug a good deal of interest in the sub ject, and the reports of the floods as published in the Enquirer-Sun were the general topic of conversa tion among the cotton men. The concensus of opinion seems to be that the crop will be shorter this year than it was last. The damage done by the rains and the scarcity of the cotton seed will certainly cut down the crop,which, of course, is liable to be injured by other disasters before it is made and gathered. The only encour aging feature of the situation is that a short crop will mean good prices. The farmers in this sec tion have planted a larger acreage in corn and small grain than usual, and will have plenty of “hog, hominy and hay” at home. —Columbus Enquirer-Sun. DOES ITPAY TO BJJY^CHEAP?

Gold win Smith, the well-known Canadian writer, in a brief talk on the South African war last Monday, called attention to one thing that may have escaped the attention of the averago new spaper reader, and that is that the Boers have no reserves. The boys and the grandfathers are now in the ranks. Their number, never great, must soon show the effect of dis ease and British bullets. With a might)’ empire, such ns Great Britain is, as their foe, it is only a question of time when they will be exhausted and will have to yield But they are making a record that, will not be forgotten. Few people have fought as heroically for independence as they are fight ing. Even their women are hand ling rifles in the trenches and are offering their lives a willing sacri fice for their country. The war is not over, of course, and it may not be over for many months. The road from Bloem fontein to Pretoria is a long one — 1500 miles. It is a road of sand most of the way, and there are numerous kopjes from behind which a small Boer force will be able to make the advance of the British army exceedingly difficult. Many a British soldier will lose his life in the march to the Tras vaal capital. And the war will not be over when Pretoria is reached. It is the understanding that even now the Boers are proparing to re tire to tho hills when they can no longer resists the British advance. From their strongholds there it will be practically impossible for 1 the British to dislodge them. They will make raids on the Brit ish and will keep the country in a state of constant agitation. One authority estimates that it will require an nrmy of 150,(XX) men for several years to hold tie Transvaal after organized resist ance is ended. If this estimate is anywhere near correct Great Britain has only just begun an undertaking that will cost in men and money far more than she had any idea it would. If she could have fore seen the cost it is probable that she would have made such con cessions as would have made it possible to avoid war.—Savannah News.
