It is understood lie will continue to preach for Harmony Grove church. Elder J O. Harris, representing the Mum/ord orphans home, near Macon, was in the city one day last week gathering up the support for his charge. He reported that he did well in Dearson. The editor was glad to hear his people com plimented on their liberality to orphan children. Elder Harris and the editor have known each other from boyhood. He started life as a railroad man, but after be reached mature years he was call ed of the Holy Spirit to the minis try of the Word and he has been faithful alt these years. He is an optimist of the strictest sect, and always trying to showdespondents the sunny side of the mountain of difficulty and disappointment. liis ministry to the orphan child ren is worth while. Opening of Fall Business. The fairly good prices cotton is bringing to the farmers is making itself felt in the beginning of the fall business. Those farmers of Atkinson coun ty who held over their last year’s crop of cotton are now selling it and liquidating as far as possible their accounts with tne merchants and banks, and are far more en heartened than they have been for months. The merchants are also more optimistic. They are putting in splendid stocks of merchandise suitable for this section and are expecting a brisk trade from hence forth. The banks are also feeling cheer ed by the prospects of improved business and are hopeful. In this connection the Tribune will say that Mr. N. 15. Harrell, who has been engaged in the saw mill business during the business depression, has withdrawn there from and will now give his entire attention to his mercantile inter ests. He is receiving a large and fresh stock of goods of which he will tell the readers of the Tribune next week. The Milliners, Garrett & Doug lass, are beginning to receive their new stock and will probably an nounce their Fall opening in the Tribune next week. Ladies of Atkinson county, watch these col umus for their announcements. Error Corrected. The Tribune was mixed last week in announcing the association;!! ■meetings to be held in Dearson and vicinity. It stated that the assoeiational meeting of the Original Smyrna Association would beat. New Beth el church on the third Sunday in October. Friday and Saturday be fore. The Tribune's mistake was in the date, which should have been the fourth Sunday, Friday and Saturday before —the same time of the meeting of Smyrna as soeiation at Dearson. The New Bethel annual meeting will be next. Sunday—the third Sunday in September—and this is the fact that caused the mistake. I’he people of New Bethel commu nity are expecting a great meeting to-day, tomorrow and Sunday— great attendance upon the services; great interest manifested in things pertaining to the kingdom of God, and a great manifestation of the Spirit of God in the salvation of the unsaved. They cordially invite all to attend. Don’t forget that the Assoeia tional meeting is on the fourth Sunday in October, Friday and Saturday before. Yearly Meeting at Refuge. Refuge ehnreli of the Primitive Baptist faith is located about one and a half miles north of Dearson, near Sweetwater creek. The annual, or yearly, meetings of this church, since ils origaniza tiou about four years ago, have been held on the Second Sunday and Saturday before in September. The editor attended the Sunday preaching service. The large building was packed with people, and a great many could not get in to the house. The preaching ser vice was led by Elder Richard Vickers and followed by Elder Minehew of Fierce county and] closed by Elder L. M. Guthrie of Atkinson county. Their teachings were wholesome and good, and they were listened to with rapt attention. At the close of Elder Guthrie’s discourse a recess of twenty five minutes was given for the people to rest and refresh themselves. After recess the members of the church reassembled themselves and observed the Lord’s supper and washing the Saint’s feet. The editor was impressed with the solemnity of the services throughout and the splendid be havior of the congregation. 666 cures a Cold quickly. Rev. T. M.

On last Friday afternoon, about four o’clock, the Waycross and Southern train ran a car over the 8-year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Preston Wilds and cut her left leg off at the thigh, left a bad wound on one arm and bruises on other parts of her body. Dr. Armistoad was at the camp in the swamp and before ho could reach Hopkins she had lost so much blood that the train started to carry her to a Waycross hospital and had just left here when she died; so it returned here with the child a corpse. But the saddest of all the little thing was a victim of Tuberculosis and was not ex pected to live long at best. Oh, how sad it was! and .the family has our greatest sympathy iu their loss. But all we can say to com fort her parents is, "The Lord givotli and the Lord takotli away; blessed be the name of the Lord.” Rap. Warden Dickerson called Tues day morning to say to the editor that the county convicts have been transferred for the next two months to the Willaeoochee dis trict, and will camp near Willacoo dice. He says Wei born Corbitt’s neighbors will now have an oppor tunity of seeing the convict, gang, and he hopes it, will not have the effect of depopulating Welborn’s ranch. This peace by resolution is only lull in the storm while the warri ors "spit on their hands in order to catch a fresh hold” on things that helps to support war —men, money, food and engines of destruc tion. The personnel of the American delegation at the disarmament con ference is a representative one — Hons. Ghas. 15. Hughes, Oscar W. Underwood, Elihu Root, and Henry Cabot Lodge.

Tillman, president of the Mer chants Bank, of Valdosta, and the applicants are all Valdosta people, it is ;in indication they have more money than they can profitably use down Valdosta way. Four or five melon growers who signed contracts with the South west Georgia Watermelon G roweis Association to handle their crops, with a penalty attached, ignored the contracts and handled their watermelons in their own way. The association has now instructed its attorney to bring suit against these defaulters to test the validi ty of these contracts. Major Carter is on trial at Black shear for the murder of Sheriff J. W. Roberson. Major and his brother, Roy, are indicted jointly and the State's evidence shows that both fired upon the Sheriff with shotguns at about the same time and immediately the Sheriff fell dead.
