Don't fail to read this col-

B I believe in the po’icy of
■ live and let live, for an illus-

I prices and then look at your
pass book and see if I do not
J undersell all on the same class
of goods.
Remember all my goods
are warranted to be as repre

1 keep ev«ry thing you
need Groceries, Dry Goods,
• Shoes, Hay, Corn and Feed
SOME PRICES!
Calico, only 5e a yard, why pay
7c and Bc. Sherwood Gingham only
9|c, beautiful patterns; why pay 12 •
and 15c.
A Fast Black Hose only 5c a Pair.
FLOUR—The best patent, 24 1b
sack for 85c.
SUGAR. —A, Granulated, Cut
Loaf and Powdered away down low,
cheaper than it is sold anywhere else.
PURE LARD,
BFST BUTTER,
FINEST CANNED GOODS
All at .living prices—no extortion
because they are line.
RESIEMBER 1 am the CHEAP
CASH MAN, and do not make it a
business to rob one man to make up
for some dead-beat or lost bill.
I WILL APPRECIATE your
orders and as I run two wagons you
will get the most prompt attention.
REMEMBER when you buy from
me you pay YOUR bill only, and do
not have to pay something extra for
a loss by a dead beat.
My wagons call on my trade every
day.

crowds gathered. The road has not
moved any freight since last night,
but is now shifting a few cars The
Boston and Albany railroad refused
consignments of Eastern bound
freight from the Central this morn

officials of that road will not take
any risk of a strike on their hands
as they know that their men are well
organized and ready to go ont on
any’ provication.

THE MONTH OF TEARS,
[
The Earth is Now Passing Through I
Meteoric Belt. >
The 10th of tl|e present month the *
earth, in its annual revolution around t
the the sun. entered what is comonly <
known as the “meteoric belt,’’ which "
being disturbed unusually by the c
appearance of mother earth spinning 1
along on her annual pathway, throws r
from time to time showeis of r
shooting stars. These meteoric dis v
plays, occurring yearly about the r
lime of the feast ofSt. Lawtence, the i
martyr—Aug. 12.—have been known I
from immemorial as “ e t. Lawrences’s c
teats.” The constellation of Perseus a
is very near the centre of the meteor t
zone, and if close watch be keptdur- 1
ing these summer nights in this part (
of the sky a grand display of' heav
enly pyrotechnic‘may be sent at any i
moment by the observant Bruns- I
wickian’s. Very few nights pass at
this season without some of these
brilliant showers delighting the be
holders.

There is an attraction on St, Si

On the 19th of last June, I was
assigned the pleasant take of report
ing a convention to be held in Den
ver, Col., on the 24th and 25th, of
that month. Having traveled to
some extent in the northwest, and
having had a glympse of the west, I
accepted tbe-appointmeut and under
took the task with an exuberant
spirit, and as I was to leave that
night, I began immediately to pre
pare for the trip. I was to leave at
11:00 p. tn , over the historic West
ern and Atlantic railroad, and when
the time for departure was at band,
I was thee with my “grip,” and
other accoutrements ready for the
journey.
There w#s nothing to interest the
traveller between Atlanta and Chat
tanooga, so I turned into my berth
and was soon enjoying a much
needed rest. Arriving in Chatta
nooga we were switched off on the
Louisville and Nashville railroad,
and, after some delay, we again be
gan our western journey.
The sleeper occupied by me was
also occupied by the Georgia delega
tion to the convention. The time
was spent in cracking jokes at the
expense of some one of the part./
playing cards and gazing upon -*
beautiful clover and grass fu*'
pastures of I'ennessee and. ’’

Up- largest cities
United States. We stopped ovWfl
short time here, and, while waitinfl
we got a slight view of the city. Tlfl
staple article of trade here is th*
slaughter of swine and pork anil
lard packing. The city is largely!
engaged in many important manu
factures. There are many iron
foundries, rolling mills, lard, oil and
stearine factories and countless
works connected with flour, clothing
furniture, paper,. pricing, tobacco,
soap, candles, bats, etc. There are
nine daily papers here, two of which
are printed in the German language.
Cincinnati has been termed the
“Queen of the West,’’but in Denver it
has n very beautiful rival. •Cincin
nati has neat ly a half million inhabi
tants while Denver has about one
hundred and fifty thousand inhabi
tonts. We thought that Cincinnati
resembled Atlanta very much, and
we left with some reluctance.
On Sunday, June 22nd, we passed
through the great wheat fields of In
diana and Illinois. Never before
hail we seen such far reaching fields
of grain. To see the beautiful yel
low grain waiving gently was a
sight worth the coming of many
miles to see.
Wh.lc we were yet in Illinois, I
was taken ill very suddenly, and did
not leave my berth any more until
Denver was reached. The delegates
reported a very pleasant trip, and
they seemed to never tire of talking
about Indiana and Illinois wheat
fields, and Tennessee and Kentucky
clover pastures.
I never shall forget our reception
in Denver when we arrived. We
reached the city shortly after twi
light, on the evening of the 23rd of
June. A huge delegation of Den
