Never boy Holiday goods until af

goods are offered for sale—there is
just one moving mass of purchasers
going in and out. Thousands of dol
lars will change hands to-day up to
12 o’clock to-night There is not a
man or woman in this city to-day
who will not spend anywhere from
25c. to $25.
Brunswick is ahead of New York

A Word of Praise.
Mkssbs. Editors: I have been
reading your paper for ten or twelve
years, and have rejoiced in your
prosperity. You have battled for
Branswick as no other man. I ven
ture the assertion that.no 'influence
has been set in motion that has done
more real good for the growth of your
town than the Advertiser Appeal.
Your people should contribute liber
ally to your prosperity, and when
3’ou dio should rear to your memory
a marble shaft that would forever
perpetuate your memory.
Not a Brunswickiak,
Words of praise are sweet to us
all—to the editor ns well as the rest.
Tho above, from one entirely unin
terested, is duly appreciated. We
are glad to say that our people have
always stood by us. The “shaft”
business don’t worry, us; there is no
marble shaft more enduring than a
a knowledge that one has endeavored
to do hiB duty. The Editors.

A Heavy Blow.
Rev. H. E. Lucas, of the Episcopal
church gave his people some home
truths yesterday about finding time
and money to serve the world, but
not the church. He spoke also very
decidedly on the subject of raffling
and similar amusements, quoting the
bench of Bishops of his church
thereby showing that he was sup
ported in his views by the highest
authority of his church. Those
who heard his sermon say that
whilst he was very guarded injiis
language,there was no chance to mis
take bis meaning. The .learned gen -
ticman laid down this broad princi
ple, that anything in itself harmless,
CHK18TMAB TO-XORROW.
To morrow morning will usher la
upon us our annual Christmas Jubl
lee, which will be celebrated by all
1q any manner they may select, sad
strange how msay notions prevail
on this lias. All are 'agreed upon
two point*, however.
1st That it Is adby of rejoicing,
should b« duly celebrated
,cb. . * ^
2nd. Thit a very proper *thlng to
do in to giro and receive presents.
But alas, so few ever stop to think
that their mode of rejoicing is not in
keeping with wbst they oelebrate—
the birth of a Savipnr. Fireworks,
hilarity, fan, frolic, estingsnd drink
ing seem to be the^idea with the
masses, yea even more, many take it
as the time for an annual drdnk and
debauoh—to our mind the most
reckless perversion of the day—to
say nothing of the harm they might
do to themsolres and others in their
drnnken revelry.
We can bpt commend those
churches that annually celebrate the
day in keeping with their belief of
its significance.
Well, we are all agreed on the one
line of making those around us as
happy as we call in bestowing pres
ents. Let those presents be such as
will gladden the hearts of those who
receive them, and if thine heart is
inclined toward sweet charity how
full the world around you is of wor
thy objects—no more fitting day to
do good in that way. A sack of
flour, h side of bacon, a bolt of home-
spun, a load of coal to Borne cheer
less home of suffering will make glad
der the hearts of its inmates than
all the dolls, jumpping jacks, fire
crackers, etc., that you could send to
such a home.
A Good Suggestion.
Editors AdvortUoivAppenl.
It has been suggested to me by a
winter traveler en route to Bermuda,
that if a good passenger schooner
or other vessel, should make occa
sional trips between Brunswick and
Bermuda in the latter part of the
winter or at such other times as
might be found profitable to the own
ers of the vessel, a new route of trav
el might be opened.
The advantage of such a route
would bo the avoidance of the ab
rupt transition from very warm, to
to the cold, piercing weather of open
ing spring. This change is very fre
quently followed by 'severe or even
dangerous colds which might be
avoided by a “tapering off” of the
journey and a mere gradual approach
to the north.
With this would come tho addi
tional advantages of change of scene,
and an increased number of visitors
to Brunswick. .
Tho northern exodus to Bruns
wick is constantly increasing and
a considerable portion of tho return
flow might be diverted to your city,
instead of tha terminus which now
ends the voyage. Yours,
Medic as.
Excursion to Brunswick.
Tho following we clip from the
Americus Recorder: “There will be
an excursion from Americus to Bruns
wick, on or abdlt the fourth or fifth
of January, of a number of gentle
men of this place to Witness the work
of Hitt <fe Co.’s, new compress, tho
“Pelican.” We understand •that
transportation has been tendered
them by the diffeteht railroads. It
will be quito a nice trip, and those
who go will be more tjjnn repaid by
seeing the coming compress of t^o
world. There is no question of its
success, that has been satisfactorily
demonstrated in its work already.”

Tie Doctor's Experience.
Dr. Duawody, health officer, had
quite an experience tut Saturday
whilst visiting a vessel la St
draw’s Sound, He had engaged the
servioes of Mason 4 McCauley’s
steam launch, and hla experience go
ing down waa rather Mixed with
wind and water, for the air was
ehilly and bleak, and the waves wash
ed over the stern of the steamer. On
his way back, however, the worst
part of his experience began. Fear
ing to return the same route he went,
he turned the prow, of the little
Steamer up for the Jointer’s On the
way up they undertook to go through
a awash channel, oontrary to the doc
tor’s ideas. In the midst of the route
they straddled a sand-bar on the ebb
tide, and there they stuck until that
tide could run out and come back
again. ' Meanwhile there they sat
monarch of all they surveyed, not
even a fiddler nor a crab came to dis
pute their ownership of the territory
they ocoupied, and none came to of
fer either food or drink. There
was a perfect , waste of waters all
around and the luscious bivalves lay
not far distant ip great profusion,
but tho former was as salty as the
briny ocean, and the latter just out
of reach. So. there the doctor and
his crew sat and shivered, grew hun
gry and thirsty in turn, but all of
no avail ; meanwhile ^another horror
camo over them. The supply of coal
had given out, and no drift wood in
reach. But necessity knows no law;
so when the tide was all right once
more, the seats of the boats were
converted Into fuei. This, with the
little coal dust left brought them to
McCullough’s dock about midnight,
where the doctor alighted and made
his way to his room, preferring to
use his own powers of locomotion to
that of a steamer without fuel. He
reached hfa room about 12 o’clock,and
went supperless and dinnerlcss to bed,
having been out since 8 o’clock that
morning on his little pleasaure (?)
trip; The doctor, when he starts
on another expedition of this sort,
will take along an extra bunker of
coal, a jug of pure artesian water,
an<f a basket of substantiate to guard
against accidents.

At Maooa, Thursday, while Tom
Wooifelk, the notorious murderer,
was walking ont la tb* corridor or
the jail, Will 8mtth, a well-known
thief, went into Woolfolk’s cell and
stole a handkerchief and $3 35 that
was tied tip in one comer. Wool-
folk noon detected the theft and re
ported It to Jailer Birdsong. 'Smith
tried to throw the money ont of the
jail, bat Wes detected in the act.

by relatives. They claim not to-be

The statement that Mr. Cleveland
was going to take up his residence
in Orange; N. J.; had hardly ap
peared in print before it was contra
dicted. It is not announced, how
ever, where the President will go, if
he doesn’t gp to. Orange. If he is
open to offers, suppose be come to
Georgia. This is a good state, and
it is strongly in favor of Mr. Cleve
land’s tariff reform policy.
Captain Rl Hobbs, of Albany, has
determined to enter upon an experi
ment which may result beneficially
to that section and the entire South.
He says ho can’t see why jute won’t
grow in the rich lands of West
Dougherty, and he has ordered one
pound of-the jute seed with, which
he proposes' to make a test of the
adaptabllltj$of the soli and climate
to its growth. He will plant it in
rich alluvial soil on his West Dough
erty plantation, and devote every
necessary attention to its cultiva
tion.
“I’m sorry I didn't come here

It was stated the other day that a
few women voted the entire munici
pal ticket in Boston. Now, it is
said that the number so voting runs
into hundreds. The women are priv
ileged to vote for sphool officers, but
not for Mayor and Alderman. In
many instances the wicked “heelers”
induced them to vote the fell ticket,
and in others they needed no per
suasion. It is thought that, after
the illegal ballots are thrown out,
the result of the election will remain
unchanged. Is woman a success as
•voter? *'

The Macon Telegraph says: The
constitutional provision that there

The necessary two-thirds vote for an
