FRIDAY, AUGUST 5, 1004.
ARCH TINDALL HELD FOR
CRIME.
Thomaaville, Ga., August 1.—
(Special.)—The commitment trial
of Morgan Tindall, Arch Tindall
and Matthew Thompson was held
here, lasting all day today. The
three young men were charged
with the assassination of Mrs. L.
li. Snipes, who was shot, while
in bed, through a window’, at
Meigs, in this county, one week
ago.
The charaetm ot the crime
aroused unusual interest, and the
court house was crow’ded. Cir
dpmstantial evidence 'of the
sttongesfc kind connected Arch
Tindall, who is the youngest of
the trio, with the crime, and he
W’as held for* tho superior court
The other two w -rc acquitted.
Rev. Alex W. Healer, of Thom
asville, in his contribution to the
Atlanta Journal’s Sunday edition
takes for a text “Country Cor¬
respondents as a Smile Maker,”
and in quoting a paragraph from
“School Girl’s,” letter to the En¬
terprise, said: “You can al
most see her chewing gum and
hear her giggling,” In this Bro.
Bealer lets his imagination lead
him estray by crediting our fair
correspondent with a paragraph
that did not belong to her and
with being a “gum chewing gig¬
gler,” which does her a grave
injustice for she does neither,
but is one of the brightest and
most intelligent girls, for her
age, in the state, and the editor
of the Enterprise agrees with
the Rev. Bealer in that he has a
“jewel” in the person of “School
Girl” as a correspondent.
Agreeable to the telegraphic
reports from the far east, this
will be the deciding week as to
the outcome of the war between
Russia and Japan. Thus far the
reports are favorable to Japan
and much uneasiness is felt by
the people at the Russian Capitol
as to the result of the week’s
engagement between the troops
of Ihe contending armies.
The legislature has passed a
bill increasing the appropriation
to the common school fund do
SI,000,000 for the year 1905. This
with the sc he cl funds arising
from other sources will bring
the available school fund for 1905
up to $2,000,000. ,

Written for the Enterprise by a visitor.
How much those few words
will mean in after years to those
who were fortunate enough to see
it,—Great! Grand! Glorious! So
much of it that we do not know
where or how to begin. My first
glimpse of it all is a confused
memory. As I came in at the
Pike entrance, it seemed as if I
had stepped into another world.
The Tyrolean Alps loomed up be¬
fore me in all their glory. Every
tube and nation were mingled
there in the Pike—Turks, Arabs,
Indians. Persians, Caucasians—
all one vast moving mas3. Here
we had a glimpse of the
Streets of Cairo, 'here of
mysterious Asia and of Per¬
sia. Now vve have left the
Pike behind, for at this entrance
you just see one little bit of it.
and here no words can express
the scene before us. One has to
see for himself. The vast plaza
of St, Louis, the manufacturer’s
building in one side, the building
of varied industries on the other
guarded at the end by the Large
Louisiana Monument. Across
the lagoon in the di tance, the
festival hall, flanked by the ter¬
race of slates, the cascades, the
beauty of which cannot be imag¬
ined, especially when the million
of electric lights are on. The
grand basin, on each side of
which you find the building of
education and social economy,
mines and metallurgy, manufae
turies, liberal arts on tho right;
and electricity and machinery,
varied industries and transporta¬
tion buildings on the left, each
separated by the lagoon.
1 cannot say which building,
has the finest display. They are
all complete in themselves. Ev¬
ery nation except Rusna, is rep¬
resented in these buildings Ev¬
erywhere you turn you see Japan
until one gets tired of it. I heard
one old lady remark, “Well, for
goodness sake, there is Japan
again.” A body would think
thereis no other p’ace in the
world but Japan,” However, all
its displays are fine; they are
not behind by aiy means. I
haven’t space to give a detailed
of what is to be seen in
these buildings.
There are berths of every des¬
and kind in all of the
from which you can
buy anything from a $1,200.00
of statuary in tho Italian
to $1,50 diamond ring.
The Italian and the French dis¬
in the Liberal Arts Build¬
are especially good. The
is marvelously life-like
conception.
The Government Building is a
grand example of Uncle Sam’s
and means. Hi doesn’t
things by halves. Here we
take a car, at the Govern¬
ment building entrance, s’ation
15, of the Intramural railway,
that will take i s around and we
get a birdseye view of the
remaining displays. This lakes
us around the Plateau of States
to station 14 and the “Inside
Inn” which leminds one of noth¬
ing more or less than a bee-hive.
The State Buildings are all
that could be desired in beauty
of design and completeness of,
detail.
Next, we find the Fine Arts
Building, one of the most inter¬
esting on the grounds. Here, at
all times, 1 found it moie crowd¬
ed than any other building. Ev¬
erything refers you to a guide
book. These books are forced
upon you at every turn—only
one-half a dollar. It is natural
to suppose they make quite a
good di al from the sale of these
and other things—even a drink
of water costing you a penny.
Next comes our own
building. We pass
Morocco and Japan, then
Building of Horticulture and
riculture. The displays in
buildings are among the
best. California’s exhibit
one think it would be very desir¬
able to live in such a land
plenty. Here we are greeted
a tremendous bear, not danger¬
ous however, asit is made
of prunes—a horss made of nine¬
ty-one thousand beans.
Missouri has pictures which
strike you as being beautiful
i paintings of life on the farm, but
on closer examination we find
them made entirely of the prod¬
ucts of the country. Perfectly
handsome dresses in the latest
styles, made entirely of corn
shucks, trimmed with the corn
silk and the grains.
The Philippine Village is not
by any means attractive looking.
Nearly all of the states are rep -
—«•* ta lho
try. Fish and game. Here we
see the salmon fiherjes, the falls
lighted by electricity, mammoth
tree trunks in which a dozen or
more could sit and rest, with ta
bles and chairs, etc. You could
not think of anything along these
lines that was not represented,
Then we have the buildings of
France, India, Porto Rico, Mexi¬
co, Siam, Brazil, Great Britian,
Cuba, China, Belgium, Burn’s
Cottage, Holland, Sweden, Aus-

The aroma of delicious coffee
tempts crowds of people to the
Brazil Building from 12 to 2 o’¬
clock. This brings us to the Ad¬
ministration entrance, station 3.
and the extreme entrance of the
Pike. A walk down the Pike and
you can see almost anything un¬
der the sun from Creation on
down to Hereafter, which is a
viviij representation of Heaven
and Hell. Here on the Pike you
can hear music issuing from the
streets of Cairo, mysterious Asia,
Persia, etc., that certainly “hath
not charms to soothe the savage
breast.” Decidedly it is alf worth
going far to stfe and 1 am sure
no one would ever regret the
time or the money spent on the
Grjat Fair at St. Louis.

An Announcement
On August 15th, we intend op¬
ening a line of merchandise in
the building on Scott street, un¬
til recently occupied by Mr. M.
R. Freeman.
We will carry only two depart¬
ments- groceries and gent’s
furnishings, the latter embrac¬
ing a full line of men’s shoes.
In the grocery line, we will
have everything that’s fit to eat.
both staple and fancy goods, in¬
cluding a lot of fine crackers and
an unusually nice line of canned
goods and delicacies.
In the gents’ furnishing de¬
partment, we will have every¬
thing for the wear of man, from
a horn collar button to a full
dx*ess or Prince Albert suit.
We think, by concentrating
our effort and time upon these
two linos, that we can do better
than by dividing it out to a little
of everything and not much of
nothing.
We shall conduct business
honestly and above board, and
will try to merit any portion of
the public’s trade, that it gives
us.
We shall endeavor to conduct
our business in a measure that
will please the people
We believe in advertising and
shall put our beliefs into prac¬
tice, by newspaper aud show
card advertisements. Watch
them! you’ll get a few pointers
on how to save money.
Yours very truly.
