} Mr._,Jo_‘guv Connell left for Atlan
‘ta Monday, where Tie has accepted
a position with a’ large mercantile
house.
Mr. R. M. Bryant, our former
tax collector, and one of the most
successful farmers in the county,
gave us 4 pleasant visit this week.
A Sensible remark. We heard a
man say the other day that what
he considered a successful farmer,
was one who made enough ta pay
his debts.
Next week we will give the names
of the applicants for teachers’ li
cense at the exammation of the
County School Commissioner on
Wednesday. :
The Tax Receiver’s last round is
nearly completed, and his books

‘you have not ““given in,” you had
better do so at once.
Our Bremen and Draketown cor«
respondents failed to come to time
this week. They are either sick}
or very busy, and we hope to hear‘
from them next week. |
The Tallapoosa base-ball boysl
played a match game with the Rock

are not inclined to own it. At the
close the game stood thus: Rock

We are requested to annonnce}
that there will be a meeting of the
ministers anc deacons of Bethlehem
Baptist Association at Bethel church,
three miles from Buchanan, on Sat
urday before the fifth Sunday
in June. A ‘large attendance
g .
is desired.
Mzr. T. A. Cook, from near Waco,.
gave us a pleasant call Wednesday,
and showed us some samples of his
cotton which are very fine. It had
squares on it and was about a foot
high. Mr. Cook is an enterprising
young farmer, and wé predict
great success for him,
Mr. Stow, the storekeeper of the
still at this place, is an efficient of
ficer. He runs things strictly ac
cording to law, and if any one de
sired to do go, it would be impossi
ble to secure any of the invigora
ting corn at the distillery.
“Light of the Nations” is a new
book by Rev. Charles F. Deems,
D D and L L D, pastor of the Church
of Strangers, New York. It treats
largely of the scenes and Inci
dences of the Holy Land, and is one
of the most interesting and instruc
tive books ever bronght before the
people. For styles and prices of
publication write to Capt. C. A.
Heard, Agent, 61 Marietta Street,
Atlanta, Ga.
Mr. J. H. Hobbs, after a long
illness, died at the home of hisson,
Mr. T. B. Hobbs, on, Monday last,
and was buried at Piney Woods
Tuesday. Mr. Hobbs was one of
the oldest residents of the county,
being 74 years old at the time of
his death. He had been a promi
nent citizen of the county for many
years, and had raised a large fami
ly of children, all of whom are
grown. He was a man of much
force of character, and had many
friends. Mr. Hobbs was the father
in-law of our worthy Ordinary,
Judge Davenpost.
In company yith Mr. R. E. Love
less we had a d‘Llightful trip to Tal
lapoosa last Saturday. The drive is
a charming of_xe, over a splendid
road, and passing many fine farms.
The scenery infmany places is sim
ply grhad. . We would like to give
a detailed account ‘of the farming
interest ‘and farmers on this road,
but want of space forbids us doing
so this time. It was our first
trip to Tallapoosa, and we wero
very agreeably surprised at the ap
pearance of the town. It is beau
tifully located, and has many fine
buildings, both dwellings and bus
iness houses. The good people of
the place gave us a hearty welcome,
and our brief stay was filled with
pleasure. The already large list of
subscribers to the BAxNer at this
place was increased, and we hope
to visit this beautiful eity and hos
pita]o_le people again soom.
The county of Haralson is to be
congratulated upon having so faith
ful and efficient an officer as her
present sheriff, Mr. J. K. Holcombe.
We were in his office the other day
and had occasion to look over some
of his books. They are models of
neatness, correctness and simplici
ty. His method of book-keeping
is his own invention, and we doubt
if there is aunother sheriff in the
State who can present a set of books
which for comprehensiveness, con
ciseness and accuracy, will equal
those of Sheriff Holcombe. He has
his books so ruled and arranged
that anyone may with a glance find
out anything they may wish to
know., To give you an idea of
their comprehensiveness, his record
of* fi-fas will in one line show the
plaintiff’s attorney, parties to fi-fa,
trom what court issued, date of
judgment, principal of debt, costs,
daie of levy, by whom levied, date
of sale, amount brought, met pro
ceeds, purchaser, to whom paid.
His jailer’s record will show name
of prisoner, age, sex, color, pro
cess, what court issued, crime
oharged, when received, jwhen re
leased, how released, by order of
what court. The record of bench
warrants will show, state vs name
of criminal, crime charged, when
arrested, if not arrested why.
HARALSON "COUNTY SUNDAY-SCHOOLS.
The Third Quarterly Meeting of the Har
alson Oounty Sunday-School As
sooiation in Session at
Tallapoosa.
We had the pleasure of attend
ing the morning session of the
third quarterly meeting of Harale
son County Sunday School Associ
ation, which convened at the Meth
odist church in Tallapoosa last Sat
urday. Mr. W. J. Walton, the
efficient president of the association,
opened the meeting by appropriate
remarks relating to the important
work of the assogiation, and ex
pressing regret that more schools
throughout the comity had not sent
delegations. ‘
Rev. Mr. Christian read a pass
age of scripture and offered a fer
vent prayer, after which several
beautiful hymns were sung.
The association then proceeded
with business by calling Mr. Jeter,
of Waco, to act as secretary in the
absence of the permanent secretary.
Reports from the various schools
was next in order, but not having
the books of the permanent secreta
ry, the schools could not be called
in order. The delegates present
were called upon to report the con
dition of their respective schools.
About half a dozen schools were
vepresented, and the reports from
most of them were very encourag
ing. These reports consumed the
moirning session, when a recesgs of
two hours was given. The t%lc
gates were then taken in charge by
the hospitable people of Tallapoosa
i and carried to the various homes of
these good people, where they found
elegant dinners awaiting them. In
company with our deservedly pop
ular sheriff, it fell to our lot and
happy privilege to enjoy the cour
tesy and hospitality of Col. and
Myrs. J. M. Meßride, Col. Mcßride
has one of the loveliest homes in
western Georgia. Sitiated on a
beautiful lot, his house is new and
handsome, embracing the old and
new methods of architecture, and
is elegantly furnished. We were
soon invited into the dining room,
where the table was laden with
good things too numerous to men
tion. Everything was prepared
’i.n the most tempting manner, dem-}
onstrating the fact that Mrs. Mc-
Bride is no less a success as a
housekeeper than is Col. Mcßride
as a lawyer and business man.
Their hospitality will ever. be re
membered with pleasure.
AFTERNOON SESSION.
At the afternoon session of the
association several fine addresses
were delivered by various delegates,
all tending to the advancement of
the association and of Sunday
school work generally.
Waco was selected as the place
for holding the annual celebration,
and notice of the time will be giv
en hereafter. The association de
serves the hearty support of the
entire county. It is non-sectarian,
but is intended to embrace every
school of every denomination in
the county. Its chief aim is to in
crease interest and advance the
Sunday school work in the county.
Give it your support -
Another conple came to Buchanan
Sunday to be married, but they
