A week, but good-natured brother, by the name of Sparks who claim - to be an ex-Method¬ ist preacher, has been spending a few days in our city. He writes poetry and is very anx¬ ious to marry, It is said that he proposed to several ladies in Covington and Oxford, all of whom invited him to get out of their presence.

Rambler, correspondent to tho Con yers Banner says: “I see the Banner and Weekly are both in favor of Conyers having elec¬ tric lights, in fact both have expressed tbier views as such a thing being prob¬ able. Thecity fathers should investigate and entertain some propositions, if tney can get any, and give us the lights if they deem it prudent.” Rambler is on the righ; The question of electric lights for yers is the most Important item in future possibilities of the town, and believe our people are thinking of that way.

The death of little Grady Mc¬ Mc¬ Daniel, eon of Mr J. W. Daniel, which occurred last Thursday evening was pecular ly sad. He was only about five years of age and a bright little fellow. The cause of his death v as tumor of the the abdomen, the origin of which the physicians failed to determine. Dr. J. A.

The news of the death of Dr. Seamans was the occasion of considerable excitement among r people, be having been a resident of our town from his earliest infancy until a shotr. time ago, when ho left here and went to St. L iu s to practice his profession. Ue was an ex¬ cellent dentist, and until dis¬ turbed, very quiet-young man. He was of excellent parents and barring his ungovernable tem¬ per, a model young man. The following special from St. Louis to the Atlanta Journal gives the story of the unfortu nate occurrence: St. Louis, February 28.— Dr. Edvard A. Dill, a prominent dentist, was probably fatally wounded and Dr. J. J. Sea¬ man was killed in Dr. Dill’s of¬ fice yesterday after noon. Dr. 1 >ill, who is at the hospital, says he reprimanded Seaman for neglecting his work when the latter became abusive and began to tulk in a loud voice. A la¬ dy, who was present receiving treatment, requested that he make less noise, and Seaman slapped her in the face, at the same time drawing a revolver and shooting at Dr, Dill, who received a bullet in the right lung. Dr. Dill drew his revolver and shot Seaman in the side, Tno latter ran from the office and dropped dead on the sidewalk, surrounded by an immense crowd of of people, who had been atttacted by the shooting. His body was taken to the morgue. Dr. Dill was removed to the city hospital, where the physi¬ cians are of the opinion that lie cannot live long. A Wondeful Man. At Madison there is from all accounts, a very wonderful man in the person of Dr. Leo. It is claimed that he haB afflicted some mai velouse cures simply by rubbing the effected person '.vith his hands. One gentleman from Rutledge, who it is elaim e 1. had not walked in 25 years, was cured n a platform in, the presence of hundreds of people, m a few minutes. Ho broke iiis crutches, threw them away and walked off without the least difficultly. Hearing of the great healing of this physician, Mr. J. A. Dukes, of our city, went down to Madi on to consult him this week. After a thorough examination, the doctor inform¬ al friend Janies that he couhl euro him in five months. Jim will take treatment and we tope that he maj be permanmt ly cured. Threw Away Has Game. Mr. D. Wiley, ex-postmaster, Black Creek, N - Y., was so bad¬ ly afflicted with rheumatism that he was only able to hobble around with canes, and even then it caused him great pain - After using Champerlain’s Pain Balm lie was so much improv¬ ed that he threw away his canes! He says this liniment did him more good than all other medi¬ cines and treatment put togeth¬ er. For sale at 50 cents per bottle by Dr, W.H. Lee Drug¬ gist. GET Our prices on advertising.
