Our Dressgoods Notions, Clothing and Shoes are all new. T. J. Tinsley & Co. A pleilSant entertainment was given at the Thornton Honse last Monday bight, but owning to its not being generally known, together with the foul weather ft was not very largely attended. J. J. Beck anti wife visited Edison Wednesday. The Judge did not tell us the occasion of the visit, but we have no doubt but that the good people of the Fourth caused their vist a pleasant one. A certain “Pet” of Morgan went visit¬ ing recently; the Monitor followed as per request, the receipt of which was duly xecogmzed—and that’s all. Some people cuss because their name will occasionally appear in the local paper, but a greater number “cuss” be¬ cause they are overlooked. No country editor is infallible. Buy your fine dress fabrics at Tihsley & Co’s. Mr. Green Wiseman was the guest of Morgan’s leading journal Monday. Come again, Uncle Green, and let’s lip ’em up the back!

Hall Oalhoiiri was On hand, ac¬ companied by Mr. J. S. Cowart of Ar¬ lington. He Insisted that all his cases be postponed, but failed to convince the Court that a continuance was necessary, Court adjourned at *2 o’clock p. m. for the term. Leary Of to-day is somewhat different from the Leary of seven years ago. I am a constant reader of the Monitor and, with but one exception, have seen nothing from our sister town. Thinking this not exA‘otly fair I paid Leary a visit Saturday to see what was up. For years I have had good friends iu Leary, and I certainly enjoyed meetiug a few of them again. The town has imprCYed wonderfully since my last visit. Capt. P. E. Boyd, Leary’s best friend, gave me a hearty hand-shake, a friendly pat on the shoulder and kindly told me the Monitor had a friend in him. Clever Keel, Drs. Griffin and Terry, A. J. Dixon and a score of other good-hearted gentlemen gave me encouragement to hustle. Thanks, gentlemen; I know the paper appreciates your kindness, and if you will help a little it will pull for L ea ry’s interests first, last and always. Mr. A. J. Dixon was elected a member of the town cOim’cil, last Friday, to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Dr. Terry. Mr. Dixon told me that the boys elected him against his wishes, but reckoned he would serve. The council will meet on the first Monday in March and elect a marshal, wno will receive a salary of $300 per year. I left at 10 o’clock a. m., and the mer¬ chants were then busy. Leary is doing a good business and prospering in every way. The town has the best wishes of Fitzdoodle, Mittford Iii Line. Mr. Editor : Believing that you would like a few dots from Millford, Baker, county, I will try to keep e Monitor posted. Millford is situated on the banks of the Itchawaynotcbaway (swamp of deer) cr ek on a high hill, perfectly healthy and always stirring. Mr. Raburn owns a fine mill in town, and ready at any time to accommodate bis customers; and if you strike him at the right time you will get a mess of as fine fish as G’eCi'giA waters afford. He ik also J, P. for the district, and will dis¬ pense ju^'ie to all who may be in need of that article. ^Clever Ben Askew is the leading mer¬ chant, always ready to help the town and himself. The post office is kept by oiie 'of CM Baker's intelligent daughters, Miss Cora Adams. She is obling to all, and, I am glad to say, a fast friend of your paper. On our streets this week I noticed Capt, B. E. Russell, who makes his home part of the time here, and Will help a friend when he can; alsoJudgb Wilburn, who will, at all times, shake hands with everyone, both friend^ and foe, and bid them God speed—a true hearted Christian gentleman. When you Visit Millford ask for either Spurlin or Jones. They are doing a nice business here, ready alid willing to make you feel at home while in town. I learn that the first quarterly meet¬ ing of the Leary circuit will meet at Millford next Saturday. All who attend will meet with a hearty welcome and be nicely entertained. Occasional. Folks Items. REPORTED BY WILD ROSE. Walter Ragan and Miss Cullie Stewart attended preaching at Bethel last Sunday. Miss Mattie Rico is spending this week with her'brother, G. A. Rice. Misa Kate Avera from Hickey is spending this week with her friend, Miss Neva Stewart. Ask Zunta AyCock if all wiio were interested in a certain little episode, last Sunday afternoon were “married folks.” Ask John Stewart why he went alone to church last Sunday. Mr. and Mrs. L. P. feenton, our former neighbor, but who now re¬ side several miles south of this place, made a pleasant visit to Mr. and Mrs. B. F. Merritt last Sunday. Mrs. Susie Sellars is spending a few days with relatives here. She is enroute to Tifton, where she intends to make her future home. We trust prosperity may {attend her where’er she may cast her lot. If we could procure a “lillie” and a “violet” now we would have a bou¬ of choice flowers in our “mystic “Wild Rose” attended Sunday school at RedbOne last Sunday after¬ noon, and experienced the pleasure of meeting “Tame Rose.” Long may this bright flower bloom to shed its fragrance o’er the MONITOR’S inter¬ esting columns, Boys, Deserving- an Education, Now is You¥ Time! We take pleausure in giving this notice—that the County School Com¬ missioner will give a free scholarship to any 'industrious, studious boy of this county who desires a good edu¬ cation in that firs’t-'claSs School, the North 'Georgia Agricultural College, at Dahlonega.

TliO valentifie party at Mr. J. 8. Riley’s Friday night, chaperoned by Miss Sallie Riley, was immensely enjoyed by the £. ; B. 0. and their elder's. The hours sped by with laughter, song and dance, to which pleasures were added fifc'e refresh¬ ments served in a manner to phase the most fastidious. All returned home Wishing Valentine parties could come frequent. “And the band played” on to pi event sp ine ft'tending. _ Don't Tobacco Spit and Smoko You Life Away.

The printer spent a few hours very pleasantly at the hospitable home of Uncle Rube Smith, Sunday afternobfi. Mrs. Smith can boast of the finest gar¬ den and the prettiest patch of arctic grass in Morgan, while Mr. Smith has the largest hog on record. Say, Uncle Rube, whistle when you butcher him. Brother Z. T. Weaver, pastor of the Baptist church, give the citizens of Mor¬ gan some good Christian advice last Snn day. If the people of the community would only follow the path staked out by '.Well hum as Weaver and McCullofigh our town would lack nothing spiritually. May God bless the ministers and the press. Mr. Hefirjf Turner of the Edison dis¬ trict paid Morgan a short visit last Mon¬ day. Calhoun can boast of no better citizen than Henry Turner, and we can assure all that as one of the eonnfy com¬ missioners, to which office he was elected at the last term of court, du i ifitfitosts are safe in his hands. Mandy West and Emma Colwell, two Negro wcftieh, “got together” early last Tuesday morning, over a dispute that is not fit for publication. However Mandy is in jail while Emma is in bed cut to the hollow in two place's—across the abdo¬ men and under the left breast. A good friend of this sheet asked ns, the other day. when he could expect to read some Morgan news in the Monitor. We will reply by saying, when Morgan is the proud possessor of a new school building. Befet news we could give the town, brother. Mr. T.
