day night in bchal of the Baptist
Church, and by the perseverance
and taste in her department rendered
much aid in raising the flattering
amount of funds realized from the un

avoidable prevented our attendance at
either, we learn the supper and enter
tainments proved a great success', and
the ladies feel proud in the realization
of the important sum of over one hun

times.
Spooling AI fray.
On lust Thursday evening, between
tin- eo and four u Clock, a difficulty nc>
currod between \\ il. Black and John
Holding, in which both parties were
wounded, but nut seriously. The ditli
culty, w e have been told, grew out of
an old grudge. The shooting commenced
at Matt Ballew’s saloon. Bolding fired
first with a small derringer known as
the Southerner, the shot striking Bh ck
on the side but happening to glance oil
one of the buttons on his pants did not
take a serious effect. Bolding finding
his only loadgoue, went into the rear of
the saloin to reload. Black jr
cured a revolver auu met Bold
ing again at Hick’s store, where
the two exchanged shots. A shot from
Black’s pistol passed through Holding's
hand and lodged just below the collar
bone. Holding's pistol being again
empty, he fled, lea ng in the direction
of the M. E Church, Black firing the
ast shot, the ball missing him eoh e
ly. Bolding was at ast conveyed to
the drug stole of Beeves & Malone,
and the ball which e n te under his
eoilarhone was Search e d br but
could not bo found 'fhe condition of j
neither of the men is an d ruU s, we I
learn. The affair is generally regretted.

Grand Jury I’rest.
We, the Grand Jury, chosen' aim
sworn, for the first week of March
term of the Superior Court of Gordon
county, Ga., beg leave to make the fol
lowing general preset tments :
We have examined the public build
ings of our county, and find them in
good condition, except some breaks in
the perti'i n walls of the Court House;
to which we respectfully call the atten
tion of the Board of County Commis
si )tiers.
We also find upon examination that
the dockets of the several J. P.s and N.
P s are incorrectly kept except the dock
ets of the 1003 1064 and 1055. Ip
that they have failed to itemize their
co t and we would refer them tosecti n
4505 of Irwin’s revised Code of Geor
gia
°’ 4 '
We also find from the report subuiita
ted to us by the commitee appointed by
the last Grand Jury to examine the va
rious county officers, that the books
of said officers are neatly and correctly
kept in suitable and well bound books.
Said report, also shows a balance in our
treasury ot three th usand and seventy
five dollars.
We fi:icl the public roads throughout ,
tin c )Uoty in is _ and condition or per- '
hips bet.er han they have been in
several years, and while we cast no re
flections upon the ’Fortner Grand Jury
we are satisfied from facts mule fully
developed that the Commissioners of
the Bth district were improperly re
turned to that body. We have elected
Capt. Wylie Dyer and N. J. Boaz to
fill the vacancy in the Board of Educa
tion caused by the expiration of the
term of Cart. Dyer and 11. C Bunt.
We fix the per diem of jurors and
bailiffs, lor th* 1 present year at two doL
lars. We would respectfully ask the
county Board of Commissioners that
they guard against further outlay of
the county funds on public bridges or
oth“r purposes for the present year, ex
ccpt in cases of actual necessity and
woul 1 recommend the per cent, levied
upon the State tax be as light as the
necessity in their judgeme- t requires.
In taking leave of bis Honor, Judge
0, I). McCutchen we tender him our
thanks ibr the able and impartial man
ner in which he has discharged his Ju
lies and courtesies to this body, and al
-o to the Solicitor -General, A. T.
ilacket for his able counsel and polite
ness to us.
We recommend that these present
ments be published in the Calhoun

Experience of a Young Woman.
- A country girl, young, pretty, and
hap r y. her step was elastic and the
roses of health bloomed upon her cheek
One spring morning she was overtaken
bv a “ spring shower.” and caught a
cold.
It was her “ particular time,” and
suppression was the result. At the
next “period” nature refused to act. —
She became sallow, swollen, and suffer
ed intensely with pain in the back and
•‘lower stomach.” pulpitalions, diffi
culty of breathing, indigestion and
headache Doct"ii failed to palliate
her distressed condition, and she longed
f.r death as the only hope of relief. —
At the instance of a friend, who her
self experienced its benefits, she was
induced to try Dr Bradfieid’s Female
Regulator. Oae bottle cured her. She
was again the girl she was that
April morning before the shower. The
Fen ; Regulator is prepared by L II
BradUeld, Druggist, Atlanta Ga., at
SI 50 per bottle, and kept by all re
spectable drug men throughout the
land.
A Most Excellent Remedy.

its use, and confidentially recommend
