Mr. Abe Mixon was put in jail
last Friday, umder a charge of

Rev. 6. E. Gardner, the wmethodist
preacher of Cedartown, died the other
day. He was an able preacher.

Baxner at market price. Want
some at once.
Mr. J. W. Ogletree is almost ready to
go to sawing lumber, and Ire has a novel
device for moving his lamber, saw dust,
ete. It is all done by machinery.
Archie Hicks, colored, who was
in jail in default of a SIOO bond
for wife beating, was taken ont
this week by Messrs John Jordan
and B. Osborn.
The chairmen of the committees
appointed last Tuesday to make
ready for the exhibit at the Pied
mont Exposition, will meet at
Buchanan on the third Tuesday in
this month.
The officers and law abiding
citizens of the county have had a
lively time the past week in their
dealings with those who neither
regard man mnor law. The law
must be upheld.
Wednesday Sheriff Holcombe
arrested Will Burns, ¢olored, who
was wanted in Cedartown for as
sault and battery. Marshal Wil
liams, of Cedartown, came down
and took hiwin charge yesterday.
Last week Judge Davenport is
sued a marriage license to Mr.
Clinton H. Weaver and Miss Min
nie L. Stevens, of Tallapoosa. We
suppose the ceremony has been
performed, and wish them much
happiness.
~ The probability is that Haral
son county will have a fair next
year. It’s rather a long way off
to begin to talk about it, but re
member the prediction. Our in
terests demand it, and the people
are beginning to see it.
Sheriff Stephens, of Clebourne
county, Ala., was here on Wednes
day, and carried Jim Mann to
Alabama, where he was wanted
for using improper langunage in
the presence of ladies. This is
an offense that is too common, and
demands more attention at the
hands of the officers of the law. |
Rev. Dr. I. P. Cheney, of Car
rollton, will begin a protracted
meeting in Buchanan on the sec
ond Sunday in September.
Let everybody go to work to make the

there. Do all you can.
From present indications, Judge
Davenport will soon reap a harvest
in the way of issuing marriage
licenses. If our subscribers pay
up all right this fall, as we be
lieve they will, we may want one
of those permits ourself' before
they are all gone.

we have many fine voices in Buchanan
that need training.

g the Cheapest and Best stock
of Shoes ever brought to this
place. Call while attending court
and look for yourselves.
G. M. Rosßerts.
The third quarterly conference of the
Buehanan eirenit of the M. K. church
was held here last Saturday, Dr. Glenn,
the presiding elder, preached an able
sermon in the morning. Rev. L. D, Cog
gin has sinee been conducting the pro
tracted services, assisted by Rev. T. M.

tended and a good deal of interest mani
fested, with two aeccessions. The meet
ing will close to-day.

Mr. G. D. Griffith, C. 8. C., re
ports that there are forty schools
in the county. In visiting these
various schools he found 1,897
white children enrolled and 1,450
in attendance. There is only one
colored school in the county. It
had 96 pupils enrolled and 75 in
attendanee. This is a very good
showing, and also serves to give
an idea of the small per cent of
our population made up of negroes.

Law, will lend money on improved

ber Ist. For further particulars

Prof. M. D. West has been elec
ted principal of the Harpersville,
Ala., high school. This is a fine
school, and Mr. West gets a good
salary. The people of Harpers
ville are fortunate in securing his
services. He is a young man of
fine morals, and a splengid educa
tion. He is a graduate of the
Peabody Normal school, and has
given universal satisfaction to his
patrons at this place.
The liver and kidneys must be
kept in good condition. Hood'’s
Sarsaparilla is a great remedy for
regulating these organs.
The committee on the repair of
the court house, consisting of S.
M. Davenport, G. F. Reid and
John M. Lipham, met here last
Tuesday and determined upon
what work should be done, and
to have it done as early as prac
ticable.. The plastering is to be
properly fixed and whitewashed,
and the blinds, windows and
doors are all to be put in order
and nicely painted. The inside
of the court house is to receive a
general overhaunling, and when
completed it will present a much
better appearance, and add much
to comfort.
Advice to Mothers.
Mrs. WiNszow’s SoorHING ByrUPshould always
be used when children axe cutting teeth, It res
lieves thelittlesuffererat once; it producesnatural,
quiet sleep, and the little cherub awakesas *‘bright
as a button.” [t is very pleasant to taste. It
soothes the child, softens the gums, allaysall pain,
regulates the bowels, and is the best known remedy
for diarrhoea, whether arising from teething or
other causes. Twenty-five centa a bottles
It has been apparent to all observing
persons that whiskey has been dispensed
entirely too freely about Buchanan for
some time. Hence some of our eitizens
began to watch proceedings, and last
Saturday night resulted in ecatching up
with a lot of whiskey and jailing it and
some of the law breakers, Mr. D. B.
Head had reason to suspicion Jim
Branch, colored, of selling whiskey. So
he watched Jim go to the still hoase of
Mr. J. E. Street and get some whiskey.—
Upon notifying the mayor and marshal,
Branch was arrested and put in jail.—
Then Sheriff Holcombe, assisted by
Messrs. D. B, Head, J. ». Thomasson, W.
J. Head, m. J, Head, T'. w. Griffith, and
others, proceeded to investigate the still
house. In i: were found about fifty gal
lons of whiskey, bearing the warehouse
stamp, but devoid of the revenue stamp.
‘The whiskey was carried to the jail,
i where it now remains, and the matter
telegraphed to the revenue collector, On
monday mr. J. E. Street, who had given
a bill of sale to a portion of the whiskey
deposited in the warehouse to mr T. w.
Griffith, was tried for larceny after trust,
and in default of a SSOO bond, was lodged
in jail. Revenue officers came on Mon
day and opened the warehouse, where
more than 150 gallons of whiskey had
been deposited, but no whiskey was to
be found. Mr. Street claims to have held
the keys to the still house, where the
whiskey was found, but denies knowing
anything of the removal of the whiskey
from the warehouse to the still house,
though both houses were securely locked.
Jim Branch, charged with selling whis
key, was tried monday and remanded to
jail for want of friends to stand a S4OO
bond. The revenue officers will proba
bly soon remove Street and Branch to At
lanta, and soon thereafter to Sing Sing.
At least, it looks this way now.
“It goes right to the spot,’’ said
an old gentleman, who found
great benefit in Ayer’s Sarsa
parilla. He wasright. Derange
ments of the stomach, liver, and
kidneys are more speedily reme
died by this medicine than by any
other. It reaches the trouble di
rectly.
By invitation of Mr. Isaac
Weatherby we visited his peach
orchard the other day, where we
enjoyed some of as fine fruit as
we ever ate. While there we also
took a walk through his garden
and a portion of his corn and cot
ton. In his garden we noticed
some fine turnips, but our atten
tion was particularly attracted by
the extra size of his cabbage and
beets. We did not measure them,
but he has several beets that will
far surpass in size any we have
ever seen. They are almost equal
to the famous California beets, of
which we have heard so much.—
His corn is exceedingly fine, and
his cotton is generally good, but
he has an acre and a half in cotton
that will take the premium. It is
beyond doubt the best we ever
beheld. Mr. Weatherby has before
gathered three bales of cotton off
this piece of ground (which is two
bales per acre) but this year he ex
pects to gather four bales from it.
The rows are five feet apart; the
cotton will average about five feet
in height, and the branches are
interlocked so as to make it diffi
cult to pass through it. It is very
heavily fruited, and will show
you what our soil is capable of
producing when properly tilled.
Mr. Weatherby is one of the most
successful farmers in the state,
and we heard it remarked of him
the other day, that he seemed to
make a crop easier than anybody.
Give us more farmers after the
order of Mr. Weatherby.
