ROYAL BAKING POWDER CO.,
NEW \OHK,
It is said that lion. Leonidas
F. Livingston, who represents
the Fifth Georgia Congressional
District, is one of the best look¬
i. in the House. The rea¬
ing men
son for this it is claimed that
he does not drink Washington
whiskey, like the other mem¬
bers from this state. There are
a large number of moonshine
whiskey manufacturers who are
constituents of the Colonel, and
they see that lie is well supplied
with the genuine “mountain
dew,”—Marshall Banner, (Ala.)
The Banner is growing ‘ fuu
ny” early. The ‘ardent spirits’
cuts no figure with Congress¬
man Livingston and his hand¬
some appearance is, perhaps,
due more to that fact than any
tiling else.
Gen. Gordon was re-elected
Commander of the Confederate
Veterans Association at the re¬
union in Nashville this week.
Judge Juo. S. Candler is fast
climbing the ladder of fame
lie is to-day the most universal¬
ly popular Judge in the State.
The next, re-union of the
Confederate Veterans will be
held in Atlanta. Tin's city will
not fail to properly care for the
old soldiers when they congre¬
gate'within her gates.
It seems that Congressman
Livingston is likely to have op
position from Atlanta again.
So long as it comes from Atlan¬
ta we presume there is no need
for the Colonel to tear his hair.
Entertainment.
The entertainment given by
Prof. ForestvjWood for the bene¬
fit of (lie Presbyterian church
was not very liberally patron¬
ized, but those who were pres
out enjoyed the recitations and
character representations 0
Prof. Wood very much. IIo is
an accomplished artist in his
line and we wish more of our
people could have been present.
