Paulk and a representative of the Dispatch left Oeilla, the objec- ■ tive ]>oint being N^sfevillo, in Ber- rien county, where superior court wop Id owiygne next morning. Sunday night was spent at the pleasant homo of Mayor McMillan, in Alapaha, and the Mayor, be¬ ing on th e grand jury, accompanied his guests to Nashville, which they reached about 10 a. m. Monday. The people of Berrien should, and doubtless do feel proud of their magnificent new court house. It is, we dare say, one of the best as well as best arranged court bouses in the state. It is built of brick and is as nearly fire proof as a building can be made. There does not seem to be anything lacking in the way of furniture, and it is all of the best make. The building and fur¬ nishings cost about #19,000, but the money has been well spent. The best is always the cheapest, and the Dispatch congratulates the county commissioners on the wisdom they have displayed in giving the people so magnificent and at the same time so durable a temple of justice. Our stay in Nashville was limited to about three hours, but while there we shook hands with many old acquaintances, including the. ever-cheerful Henry Peeples, genial Sandy Patterson, handsome Bill Tygart, happy Joe Knight, Col. Lacy Lastinger, and a number of others. After a first-class dinner at Mrs. Hamilton McOaine’s the Oeilla contingent, in company with Mr. Needham Purvis, left for that gentleman's home near Kissimmee, where Monday night was most agreeably spent. Early Tuesday morning five fish¬ ermen—three professional and two amateurs—went down to the Alapa¬ ha river to catch a few' fish. One of the party baited for suck¬ ers Monday evening and w r ent back Tuesday morning to see what effect it had iqion them. They didn’t seem to know he had come, and he needed succor as well as suckers before he quit trying to assemble one of them on his hook Later in the day he repented and went to fishing for perch, with improved luck. As is usually the case, Mr. Need Purvis caught more fish than any two men present. In fact, he caught about two-thirds of the fish. We will not tell about “Need” knocking down a nest of black wasps, nor how’ an orphan fought to keep from running over the wasps with the boat. It was a lively scene, and if the weather had been warm, it would have been more so. About one o’clock p. m. the party had caught one hundred and twenty perch, besides a few' cats, and eating a fine dinner at Mr. Purvis', soon left with great strings of fish their several homes. The party consisted of Judge Dan Tucker, Mr. Need Purvis, Dr. W. C. Ash¬ ley, J. L. Paulk and a Dispatch man, and we’ll venture to say there never has been a fishing frolic that was more keenly enjoyed. To Mr. Purvish and his good family the party extends warmest thanks for kindnesses, and wishes for them continued peace and pros¬ perity.

They have been ill for several weeks with Fever. The crokinole party given by Miss Mary Young Monday night in honor of her friend, Miss Addie Mae Jenkins, was a very pleasant occasion. The ever popular game of crokinole was played ’till a late hour, when dancing and a few other little games succeeded it. Then came the sad feature of the eveu- ing wheu the friends of Miss Jen¬ kins had to hid her a sad good bye. She leaves Waterloo today,Tuesday, for her home in Molena, Ga. We hope her stay in South Georgia has bean most pleasant and that she will soon honor us with another visit. Oct. 10. Pa i>. The most vigorous workers have spells of ‘‘tired feeling” now and then.

A Chicago dispatch says that beef on the hoof went up on Mon¬ day to #7 at the stock yards, the highest since 1892, and the highest October price since 1884. This upward movement in the price of beef cattle confirms the pre- dictions which The Telegraph has been making and repeating for the last six months. The first sign of scarcity showed itself some time since in the draft made on Georgia | for cattle to he shipped out west. Georgia cattle taken to Illinois and fed a few weeks sells for “prime” Western beef. These things point plainly to the course to be pursued by Georgia farmers. Everything on the farm wrapped in hide and hair (except the sheep killing dog) is going to be worth gold next year and the next. This is particularly true as to cattle. It will pay to put the moth¬ erless calf on the bottle and the runt pig to the swill tub. The long era of over-production, checked as it has been by the strin¬ gent times of the last three or four years, has come to an end. Con¬ sumption has overtaken the supply. Everything is advancing in price, even to cotton. Tbe outlook for the producer—for the man who has something to sell—was never bright¬ er, provided he does not carry all of his eggs in one basket. But cattle cannot be cared for in winter—in fact, at no time well— without feeding. Gapt. 'J'. .1. James, at Adrian, in Emanuel county, has made a great success of sugar cane growing. We have samples in our office of cane from a 150-acre field which has developed twenty-two good joints. He has not only de¬ monstrated that there is a good profit in the cultivation of sugar cane, but he has found that fodder made of the blades and tops pays the cost of the cultivation. He has found it to he of the best quality, and the stcck eagerly devour it. He cures it right on the ground where it is stripped from the stalk. 11 has been the custom of farmers to throw this away—to burn it as soon as it gets dry and dead.— Macon Telegraph.
