DAYS in South Georgia toan. 4 short time
since, and upon registering at the hotel
asked the proprietor il ne could not give

that his rates were 50 per day or So per
week, aud that ne would not make any
change In his charges. The drummer re-
manned four days. and upon getting ready
70 depart asked for his bill.

six dollars"
We'll. then. 1 will Just pay for week"
The bill was paid, and just before train
Time the drummer saantered down to the
depot.
And SO did the landlord.
Are you going off on this trainF' asked
the latter as be approached his late guest.

"How DO you make that outF'
Il told you my rates ere 81 a day. or So

Didn't 1 pay you for a week.
Yes, but you havn't stayed week.
Then will knock around here and see
II can hire man TO stay the balance of
my week."
None of your insulting remarks" said
the landlord In threatening tone. as he
picked up the drummeT's Sacnel and flung
tie strap across his shoulder
The drummer said nothing mora but
quietly bought his ticket, and approaching
the landlord deity opened his satchel and
pulled therefrom asix-shooter. Pointing it
at his late host, he said II think you had
better put my sachel DOWN.
The landlord gezed down the cleaning
barrel for an instant, and concluded it
would be wise TO comply with the request.
At this juncture the train rolled up aud the
drummer jumped aboard. The landlord
climbed to the platform ami cursed his
departing guest until the train was going
at good rate OF speed, when he had to
jump off.
The grand jury Of the county in which
this occurred met a short time thereafter.
and true hin was returned against the
drummer for assault with intent TO murder.
The drummer is afraid TO go back there
any more.
Just because he wouldn't stay the balance
of his week.
A lawyer OF the town wrote him a nice

High School Commencement.

On last Friday evening the gradu-
ating exercises of our high school
took place in the Opera House in
this city. Although the weather
was excessively warm and oppres-
sive, the house was early filled to
its utmost by the best people Of our
town, who gathered to listen to the
rendering OF an excellent program
and to show their appreciation Of
the valuable work done by the
corps of teachers who presided over
our public schools during the past
year. The first number on the pro-
gram was an Instrumental selection
by Miss Allie Talcott, which was
excellently rendered. This was fol-
lowed by prayer by the Rev. Mr..
Sabin, after which Miss Addie Bryan
read an essay entitled Biography
of Santa Claus" written by Miss
Julia Freeman, which was well.writ-
ten and well read. Miss Ida Woods
was the next OH the program, recit-
ing, in her own inimitable style and
grace, a piece, prepared for the DC
casion, entitled"L literary Patchwork"
which brought down the house.
The next was a quartet, Spring has
Gomez which was very nicely sung
by Misses Jennie Bovee and Jennie
Fisk, and Messrs. O.. NJ. Walters and
George Hasson; and followed by
Miss Maggie Dyer in an essay on
'sThree Problems of Washington's
Administration" This was an able
article and showed much thought
and careful attention. Miss Bertha
WEIGH mex. recited a piece entitled
~Tle Ride of Jennie Mcneil" Miss
Bertha is a fine speaker and was
greeted at the close by prolonged
applause. Miss Aggie Bovee then
sang in a most charming manner
the solo, "Safe from the storm"
Then followed Miss Cora Lilly, the
only graduate this year, who read
an essay entitled, Washington
Irving" Miss Lilley is q young
lady just budding into womanhood,
and has the promise Of a bright and
useful future. Her paper was a fine
production, showing that she was
thoroughly conversant with her sub
iect, and was read in a masterful
manner. Director F. NJ. Gilmore
then, in an elegant little speech, pre-
scented to Miss Lilley the graduation
diploma. The exercises..of the even
ing closed with the old, familiar
song, "Annie Laurie" sung by q
quartet composed Of Misses Jennie
and Aggie Boyee, Mary Hines and
Jennie Fisk, and we will venture
the assertion that not one Of the
large audience ever heard it sung so
beautifully and with sach effect.
And thus closed the school year Of
122g-M.
