Smith visited Bremen Tuesday. Miss Rosa Merritt, of Cedartown, was in Buchanan this week. For want of rain the oat crop in this section is almost a failuve. Mr. Star and daughter, of Bre men, were in Buchanan 'l‘uesday.‘ Dr. Summerville and Col. Price Edwards went up to Rome Tues day. : | Mayor M. J. Head spent a coup le of days in Summerville this week. See the new advertisement of Wheeler & Wilson's sewing ma chine. The dry cool winds are very dis ‘heartening to farmers and all other classes. ~ Rev. &. R. Brown, of Waco, de livered an unusually fine sermon ‘here on Wednesday night. ~ Mr. Gus Lee’s pockets are the receptacles of some rather queer ar ‘ticles of late. i Quite a number of teachers were in Buchanan Wednesday to stand their examinations. | Clerk J. S. M. Biggers reports =the crops about Draketown in a flourishing condition. There will be all-day singing at Felton next Sunday, June 2. Quite ‘a number will go from Buchanan. ~ Our base-ball boys will go to ‘Tallapoosa to-morrow to cross bats ‘with the Tallapoosa club again. } 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 will be closed ina few days. If ‘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 mart club last Friday, but they are not inclined to own it. At the close the game stood thus: Rock mart 56, Tallapoosa 13: 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 wemeg disappointed, as they could not Secure license on that day.. NUMBER 21.
