They Had n Big Time.

Gainesville has had a big day
and is huging itself accordingly.
There was a big crowd and every
thing passed off pleasantly. The
games, races, ETC., were excellent.
The trade display was splendid
array and many of the floats were
works of art. The metropolitan
band got home last night at IL
o'clock in very jubilant frame
of mind, well pleased with. their
reception in our sister city.

in favor Of Gainesville. There
was blood in many eyes, but none
was shed and money flowed free

which he is devoutly thankful.

Literary Society Meets.

The literary society recently
organized by our young men, met
in the court house last night. In
the absence of the president, j.
r. Nick can took the chair. Two
new members were admitted to
the ranks. The subject for de-
bate was resolved, that the state
capitol should be moved from
Tallahassee to Ocala. The secre-
tary was requested to ask per-
mission of the Rifles to use the
armory hall for the semi-monthly
meetings of the society. The re-
quest will doubtlessly be granted.
Jesse Miller and Stephen Jewett
took the affirmative of the ques-
tion and Hamlet Barry and j. E.
Pittman handled the negative.
Some excellent flights of oratory
scared among the cobwebs of the
old hall Of justice from the throats
of these coming orators. The
Judges, G.. E. Connor, g. l.. Sis
trunk and S. s. Burlingame de-
cided in favor of the negative and
for this month at least the capitol
will not be disturbed.

A Big Business Deal.

j. w. Hodges, owner OF the
big shoe and gents furnishing
store. sold the business yesterday
to Mr.. n. w. Hackett, the banker
and merchant of Stark and one OF
the most wealthy and influential
citizens of Bradford county. MIR.
Hackett will conduct the business
for the present without any
changes, except in management.
Mir. Nicely has severed his con-
nection and George A. Douglas
of Starke, who has been assist
ing him, will remain in charge of
the business. Mr.. Douglas has
been in the employ OF MIR. Hodges
for several years and has shown
marked ability as a salesman.
His management OF the business
will, without a doubt, be most
satisfactory. He will be assisted
by a young clerk, Felix Long from
Mr.. Hackett's Starle store. Mr..
Hackett is an experienced busi-
ness man and financier of recog-
nized ability. He has made a
splendid success of his bank which
enjoys most excellent business
reputation throughout the state
The business of the big store here
will be continued on the cash ba-
sis adopted by Mr.. Hodges, and
the large stock and superior quail
ity of goods will be sold at as
tonishingly low prices. He re-
spectfully solicits your patronage
and promises you most fair and
impartial treatment.
We welcome Mr.. Hackett as a
business man to our city and pre-
dict that he will make a success
of the business.
We regret to lose Mr.. Hodges,
who is a most excellent gentle
man and a most able business
man.

The man with q weight on his
leg can't hope to win in the race.
A man with a weight on his
health can't expect to compete in
life and business with those who
are not handicapped. If his brain
is heavy, and his. blood sluggish,
because of constipation, he will
not succeed in doing anything
very well, Constipation is the
cause of nine-tenths of all sick
ness. Symptoms of it are sallow-
ness, listlessness, poor appetite,
bad taste in the mouth, dizziness,
biliousness, and lassitude. Con-
stipation can be cured easily and
certainly by the use of DR.. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets. They are not
at all violent in their action, and
yet they are more certain than
many medicines which are SO
strong that they put the system
all out of order. The great ad-
vantage of the pleasant Pellets
is that they cure permanently.

fourteen years of age to seek en-
ployment and his fortune, the
stepping stones of which he
found in straw-goods house,
where he rose by successive steps
until his superior business ability
made him proprietor.
In these Is years of unceasing
efforts, at first working for his
board, walking two miles each
day to his place of business, at
tending night school, he found
himself with $4,000 a year salary,
laterselling out his business he
came to Georgia with $4,000.
His keen financial instinct
quickly discovered the power of
{ combination and that with his
capital it was safer to use it
among small communities than
in the centers of trade and mon
ey. Time has demonstrated the
correctness Of this Judgment.
The only mistake made, which
Mr.. Witham admits was in de-
claring 40 per cent. dividend in
one bank when it should have
paid and the rest placed among
the surplus funds. The banks
have paid net from s, 10, II and
25 per cent. a year on capital in
vested, except in the one case
given.

how much better and brighter
would be our own lives and make

In religious affairs he adopts

WITHaM BANKING SYSTEM.
The Farmer. Has the Preference Over
the Merchant.

ta, Ga, is president of twenty
banks in as many towns in the
state, and the best of it all is
they are a success, have been of
great help to the communities in
which they are located and made
money for all interested in them.
Mr.. w. began his system Of
creating banks III the Empire
state Of the South in 1889 and
continues 20 establish them
wherever he sees q good opening.
One Of the remarka bic successes
OF the Witham system is that he
carried his banks successfully
through the panic and had money
10 take care Of his customers.
His system differs from that of
Limri DwiggerS, who essayed
some years ago to do a similar
multiplicity Of banking in Geor-
gia, in that Witham never bor-
rows Of one Of his banks to tide
over or assist in relieving the
pressure Of a sister institution,
but secures loans from outside
sources, which was the rock on
which Dwiggers split when the
panic came and carried all his
banks down.
One Of the strong features Of
the Witham system is that the
controlling interest resides in a
nonresident syndicate which
checks the tendency SO strong In
small towns to make a cone man
bank" or a family bank, the
shoals on which SO many banking
institutions have gone to pieces.
The policy of these banks is to
allow no merchant dealing with
them to fail for want of money if
he can show he is solvent. Loans

no real estate is taken for secur-
ity, though advances are made
on crop security.
The farmer is always given the
preference over the merchant in
accommodations The capital of
these banks range from S25, ,0QC
to $4,000. Mr.. Witham is the
financial agent Of these banks
and his salary of $4,000 a year
is paid by them and then he sup.
plies them with all the funds
needed when crop moving time
comes.
The expense Of these banks is

aried officer is the cashier who

man describes the method practiced OF
seeding Hudson river island land. II
consists in blowing the land for corn,
keeping it clean and free from weeds,
and just before the last cultivation SOW,
either broadcast or with Calhoun
seeder, one-half bushel timothy seed pei
acre Cultivation must be level and not
ridged. The corn will shade the seeding
till fall, and the overflow of water will
have the effect of leyeling and smooth
ing the land. The corn stubble will not
be noticed after the first year When the
seeding is poor or running out, repeat
the operation. No-need of adding ferti-
lizers or manure.
