Electric Lights and Water Works to Be Put
 in-General Notes.
 Athens, Aug. 19.-(Special.) )-Electric lights and water works have been ar ranged for in our little city and our peo- pie only await the action of the legisla- ture for permission to issue bonds, which have already been placed for purchase of same. Think of our once very quiet little city, Birmingham's most beautiful and aristocratic suburb, with telephone exchange, already in, and lights and wa ter enough for 10000 people. In the near future we will lead the van in improve ments, and some of your city's suburbs, such as Pratt City, Montgomery and others will have to look out for their laurels.
 Col. J. T. Tanner, who has been sick most of the year, Is improving and is often seen on the streets among his old friends, who hold him in very high es- teem.
 pr. Parker, president of the Athens Female college, has made a vigorous campaign for the college during the sum mer and reports very gratifying results. The prospects, for the college are bright for the future. One hundred boarders at least are expected to matriculate during the year. The splendid new chapel for the college is nearing completion.

The National Capital--Reduced Rates
ria u. DC o.

The City of Washington is an object OF
perennial interest to all patriotic Americans.
Not alone because it is the great throbbing
heart of the mightiest and grandest Republic
the earth has ever known, but also on ac-
count of its material magnihcence All
Americans take pride in its beautiful ave-
nues, majestic architecture, stately homes,
and we'll stored galleries and museums as
things of grandeur and beauty in themselves,
apart from the historic interest with which
they are invested. 1t is hope and aspira-
ton of all "young America" at least, at
some time or other to visit the Capital OF his
country.
The Baltimore & Ohio r. r. offers une-
qualled facilities in aid of this desire by in
augurating series of popular excursions at
reduced rates. A number of persons from
this section have availed themselves OF these
excursions and found the train service and
other arrangements in keeping with the lib
eral policy of the B. d o.
The third excursion of the series, via this
popular line, is announced for Thursday,
April 2Sd. Pleasant side trips have also
been arranged to points of interest in and
about the Capital.
We give below a list of stations showing
the time of trains and rates of fare {:
