which come from success in the profes
sion, to political position and promo
tion.
His practice at home and in the south
western circuit and in the supreme
court of the state was large.
Col Hollis was one of the most effi
cient members of the Board of Trustees
of the University of Georgia, and bad
scores of frienns who will deeply mourn
bis death.
He was married many years since to
Miss Davenport, and has reared a large
family.
Americus and Georgia will in his
death lose one of her most honored and
useful citizens.

Merchants—Things In
Which Bargains are
Offered.
The headsman’s ax will swing with
vigor soon, and if reports be true
among tbe first heads to drop into tbe
political basket will be that of Boss
Buck.
A nd it ought to fall there at an early
date, for if there ever was an offensive
partisan, it is Buck. Tbe President is
now Investigating his record, and tbe
band-writing on tbe wall has already
been announced to him that he is
weighed in the balance and has been
found wanting.
And while tbe beadsman at Wash
ington is wielding bis little ax, there
has been some slashing around here in
Athens. Tbe people have stood by and
applauded, and the good work goes on
much to their delight. Every day the
ax swings with telling effect.
Where is all this going on? Why tit
J. J. C. McMahan’s, of course. He
one of those men who never does things
by halves, and when hard times strike
the city he slashes his prices right
down to a place where all citizens can
come in and partake of the baigains he
off rs to the public.
Sommer is here, and you will have to
have clothes. You just can’t get along
without them, for however hot the
weather, the law with
rigid firmness compels the sufferer to
wear his clothes. He may sigh for the
privilege of taking oil' the upper crust,
so to speak, but he can’t do it.
So the best thing for him to do is to
go at once to McMahan’s Clayton street
store and prepare against hot weather
by purchasing a light summer suit of
the latest approved style and fashion,
neat straw hat, an outing or puff-bosom
shirt, corresponding underwear, and be

during the sultry summer days to keep
him cool.
So don’t forget tbst tbe most elegant
line of clothing, straw bats, Alpine
bats, shirts, underwear, neckwear and
all kinds of genu furnishing goods to
be found in Athens, is at J. J. C. Mc
Mahan’s.
A visit to his store would be appre

be convinced tbat be offers the best

A Battle lie ween Drunken Mexicans and
Oilleers Wlio Tried to Quiet Them.
Durango. Mexico, May 12.—During
the Maximillian holiday celebration
here, a desperate affray occurred be
tween a mob of intoxicated Mexicans
and the police, which resulted in the
killing of five of the mob and one po
liceman.
The Mexicans were parading the
streets committing depredations of a
serious character. When the police at
tempted to suppress the lawlessness of
the mob they were tired upon by the
mob, killing' one and wounding two
others.
The police retnrned the fire killing
five of the leaders of the mob. The
others were captured.

H«* Resisted Hi* Seat.
Washington, May 12.—An afternoon
paper has this account of the meeting
between the president and Delegate
Rawkins:
As to the disagreement between him
self and President Cleveland. Delegate
John R. Rawkins, of Utah, has tele
graphed to Governor West his resigna
tion of his seat in congress. The trou
ble was over the distribution of the
federal patronage in Utah, and it is said
that hot words passed between tbe two
and that there was an exciting scene.
Certain it is that when Mr. Rawkin’s
left the president’s room, his face was
flushed with anger and he was laboring
under great excitement. Delegate
Rawkin’s hart two or three previous in
terviews with President Cleveland and
has made certain recommendations for
appointments in his territory. He came
to see what action Mr. Cleveland was
going to take in these cases, and he was
fortunate to have a private conference
with the president.
He soon discovered that President
Cleveland had his own views on the
subject of appointments in Utah. Mr.
Rawkins started to argue his case and
show why he was right. The president
cut him short, and intimated that there
were other persons and other interests
besides those represented by Mr. Raw
kins, which would have to be consulted.
By this time the delegate’s temper had
been aroused, and, although tbe presi
dent had simply told him what he has
told to all the members of congress, Mr.
Rawkins gave it as his opinion that his
own recommendation should carry more
weight. One word led to another uutil
finally Mr. Rawkins, worked up into a
passion, told the president that if his
word was not to be taken with regard
to Utah matters and politics, he could
find some one else to consnlt. He went
to the telegraph office at once and wired
his resignation to the governor.

There could not be fonnd one dissent

mastered the difficulty.
When I tell the public that my stock
of gentlemen’s and boy’t strictly fash

of clothing is just now at the height of
its popularity, and although the season
will soon be on the wane, I can find a

The way to make the burden of life

it happy and prosperous is to make it
productive and give its people, all who

unable to do heavy work; they manu
facture goods for home consumption

elements as a pants and over-all factory.

“ ‘My Wife’s Husband’ is one of those

creation and a most amusing one.
There Is one thin£ about Clarke that
always pleases: He ia such a hard,
earnest and conscientious worker. Ha
throws so much life and enthusiasm
into everything be touches, that his ap
pearance is intoxicating to the audience;
makes everything appear to move
smoother and livelier, and it gives life
and interest to tbe dullest dialogue.

REV-IaM SMALL
To Deliver One of His interesting
Lectures Here.
Several well-known gentlemen who
have bad the pleasure of hearing tbe
Rev. Sam Small apeak, have taken the
liberty of inviting him to this city to
deliver bis famous lecture, “From Bar
room to Fn’pit.”
Mr. Small has replied to the invita

to come.
The date haa not yet been definitely
fixed for the lecture, but it will be ei
ther at the Y. M. C. A. or the opera
honse, the latter part of this month or
the first of June.
There is no more brilliant, humorous

Mr. Small, and Athens will be as much
delighted to hear him as he will to ad
dress ns, and he can rest assured of a
crowded honse.

complain of being lonesome after his
friends found he was in town.
Lee Langley, who is now doing the
local lines of The Athens Banner,was
in town yesterday. Lee is a hustler on
the pavement and it takes a very fugi
tive piece of news to get away from
him. He is doing admirable work and
his old Atlanta friends are pleased with
