Mr.. B. NJ. Wilson, manager of the

Guest of John Hill.
In company with Judge Hill, Mr.. G. o.
Hill and Eli Hill, Jr., l drove out, last
Friday, to the home of Mr. j. L. Hill and
spent the day hunting. Mr.. Hill is the
largest planter in this section. His mag
nificent home is surrounded by large
grove of stately oaks and long rows of
comfortable tenement houses, and far
out reach broad, green pastures sodded
with burmuda and tinted with the gold
en- hues of clover, over which large herds
of sleek, blooded cattle browse while
pokers, fat to almost suffocation, lounge
in the shades. About his home are stacks
of bales of cotton, and it seems as if
they smile as you pass by, for they
are not incumbered and can go to market
at will At II o'clock we were invited
into the cozy dining room and seated to
table overlooking with an elegant din
ner. After dinner we gathered on the
spacious veranda and listened to Judge
E. G. Hill relate some very Interesting
history touching his settling upon this
homestead in 1910. While the judge
was talking there, on the steps, sat uncle
Isaac, an old darkey who belonged to
Judge Hill when he came to this com
try. Old Uncle Isaac and lot of other
old negroes who belonged to the judge in
slavery days never moved off this place
at the close of war, and have remained
with their old master ever since. This
speaks volumes of good treatment to
these old negros from the hands of their
former master, and it is likely they will
remain with him al the days of their
lives. The day was enjoyed very much
out at this country home, away from the
din and dust of town life. We returned
home with a nice lot of birds.

The Shakers have made discovery
which is destined to accomplish much
good. Realizing that three fourths OF
all our sufferings arise from stomach
troubles. that the country is literally
filled with people who cannot eat and
digest food without subsequently suffer
ing pain and distress, and that many are
starving, wasting to mere skeletons, be-
cause their food does them no good, they
have devoted much study aud thought to
the subject, and the result is this discoy-
cry of stheir Digestive Cordial.
A little book can be obtained from your
druggist that will point out the way OF
relief at once. An investigation will
cost you nothing and will result in much
good.

Fine Exhibition in Sprinting.
Sheriff Christie captured badly
wanted negro Friday.
A few days ago the officers here were
notified by parties at Cochran, Pulaski
county, to look out for a mulatto negro
who had stolen large bay mule, and a
day or two later request came from
Nontezuma for the officers to watch
for GAINESVILLE buggy that had been
stolen near there.
Friday afternoon Sheriff Christie
learned that negro who suited the
description of the horse thief had been
seen going out of town towards Albany.
The Sheriff and Bailiff G. G. Lewis were
soon in pursuit. and overlook the negro
near Mr.. A. j. Carver's residence. When
the negro saw the officers approaching
he took to his heels, giving the sheriff
and the bailif a lively race. He was
captured, however, on Mr.. W. II. Mers
GERS place. nearIthe city limits, andlgave
his name as Dick Perry. He seemed to
have been making for his horse and bug
gy, which were at Inegro's house near
where he was captured. The buggy
proved of the GAINESVILLE make with
marks identical to those described in tile
notice to the officers. After the captive
had been placed in jailI.another NEGRO,
who gave his name as King Solomon,
came up, and, at first, claimed both the
horse and buggyl and said that he had
wards made conflicting statements, and
Sheriff Christie decided to Jail him also
until he could make an investigation.
He communicated with the parties IN
both Pulaski and Macon counties, and
the reply came from each to hold Dick
Perry, the Macon Icaunty sheriff saying
he had four warrants for him, one of
which was for burglary.
Deputy Sheriff Childs came down from
Ogle thorpe Saturday afternoon, identi-
fed tie buggy as the one stolen at
Montezn ma and requested that Perry be
turned ov, or to him. Sheriff Christie,
however, d. ecided to hold the prisoner
until the Coo hiram parties, from whom
the buoy was st, 'len' could reach here.
