Say, doyou know what an Orange
Grove Social is? No. No more do we,
but we suppose it Is something where
oranges are dispensed with and lemons
substituted. But it won't make any
difference, we know it will turn out to
he sweet and good because the ladies
of the Thompson Avenue Methodist
church are getting it up, and they are
SO full OF smiles, sunshine and sweetness
that all they do partakes of them. So
come to the building next door East of
the Descent block next Wednesday
evening August 10Th, and bring all the
family and the visiting friends, and
find out what an Orange Grove Social is
like. We accidcntly found out lbut
don't give US away that ice cream il
one of the ingredients.

Large cards with the name of the
county were placed on the benches at
the court house thisa.tcrnoon to enable
the delegates to find their seats as they
came in. When }. 3. Arnold, of West
Superior, came to the Don-Ias County
sign, he grabbed it and with an oath
tore it from the stick and throw it on
the floor. Such conduct clearly shows
that Nr. Arnold is either ashamed of
his county or else that he does not
know how to conduct hjmsclfasa gentle

How does Mr.. +. G. Mills now like
being told by his organ, the Telegram,
that it never favored him nor supported
him-that he was not its candidate?
How can he blame others for being
more manly in telling him before the

tells him after his defeat?

DREW THE LINE.
Atlanta's Bar Objects to Adjourning
Out of Respect to Negro Lawyer.

Atlanta's Bar Objects to Adjourning
Out of Respect to Negro Lawyer.
Atlanta, Ca, May 9. There was a
breezy time for while at a meeting of
the Atlanta bar this morning. Yesterday
a negro lawyer named Davis died and to-
day he was buried. He had been ad
mitted to the bar and was member in
good standing at the time of his death.
This morning when the bar met it was
moved that court ad .ourn for the uay
in respect 10 the memory OF
Davis, the negro lawyer. The
attorneys sat in silence until one of them
got up and protested. The docket was
crowded, he said business of great i'm
portance was before the court, and to adj
loUrn would be a serious matter. Finally
a compromise was reached-it was de-
cided to adjourn court at 2 o'clock for the
day. n great deal of feeling was exhibit
ted during the discussion.
IT has been the custom in the past in
cases where a member of the Atlanta bar
died to adjourn court out of respect for
him, but the fact that Davis was a negro
caused some members to object to accord
ing him the usual honor.

BIG FIRE IN a SMALL TOWN.
Every Store and R sidence on the
Main Street in Ashes.

Portland, Me, May 9-The little vii
lage of Norway was visited to-day by
most disastrous fire. Every store, the
dwellings and other buildings on Main
street were crumbled to ashes and the
total loss will amount to S5OO.OOO The
fire broke out about o'clock this after
noon in Cummings furniture factory
across the river from the village and
before it could be subdued had Jumped
the stream, set FIRE TO the opera house and
communicated to neigh boring buildings.
Norway's only method of fighting the
flames was with hand engine, and this
had no effect onrthe fire whatever. It
was soon seen that the whole
town was threatened and aid was
summoned from LewistOwn and Port
land. 1t was an hour before engines from
the cities could reach the scene of the
confagration and by that time all the
buildings on Main street nad been burned
to the ground. The merchants on the
street made frantic efforts TO save their
stock and in some cases were successful
but the flames spread so rapidly that it
was impossible to save much. Seventy
two dwelling houses, including the homes
of all the prominent merchants and pro-
fessional men were burned, and hun
dreds of people were forced to fee from
their houses, leaving everything to the
mercy of the fire.

ton. Capt. Werlich was the bearer of
