Card of Thanks.

EDITOR NEWS: We desire to thus
publicly express our most sincere and
heatfelt thanks to the good people of
Parrot for their kind and low
ing ministrations to our beloved
husband and father in his recent
illness, and to us in our sad bereavement;
also to the attending physicians, DR.. j.
II. Williford and DR.. j. E. Douglass, of
Cuthbert, both of whom did all they
could to relieve his sufferings. Never
have we seen people more kind
than these, who deemed no service
or sacrifice too great, and they
will always be remembered by us. May
the God of the widow and the fatherless
ever deal gently with them, and
in every trouble raise up for them such
friends as they have been to us, and may
they receive the Masters plaudit on the
last great day. "Inasmuch as We hRYe
done it unto one of the least of these, my
brethren, ye have done it unto me"
Respectfully,
Mrs. N. M. WEAVER, SR., AND FAMILY
Cuthbert, Ga.

sition in his effort fora the postmaster
ship there, but the THE News learns
that he is almost certain to get the ap-

THE LITERARY SOCIETY.
AN INTERESTING MEETING AT THE
HOME OF MRS. n. C. BALDWIN.
Life and Works of Edgar Allen Poe
Discussed. Several Interest
ing Papers We're Read.

The literary society met last Friday
evening at the residence Of Mrs. n. G.
Baldwin, and spent two hours profit
ably and pleasantly in the discussion
of Edgar Allen Poe, his life and works.
Mr.. Yeomans was the first on the
programme, and gave sketch of Poe's
life, going at times into details in or
der to show that the idea commonly
entertained that Poe was a confirmed
drunkard was a wrong one. He de-
clared that Poe had been grossly mis-
represented and maligned, and quoted
from those who knew him Intimately
to prove it. Professor YeOman's pa
per was we'll prepared, and was highly
interesting and instructive through
out.
Mrs. F. B. Arthur gave a magnifi-
cent criticism of POe's works, and his
power as writer was fully set forth.
All present were charmed with her
paper. 1t was treat and showed that
Mrs. Arthur is a woman of splendid
literary ability, with a style that IS
graceful and rare insight into the
merits of writers.
Mrs. w. r. Baldwin next followed
with short description of that most
beautiful of all poems, "Anabel Lee,"
and then favored those present by read
ing it. 1t was rendered in a pleasing
manner and was enjoyed by all.
Miss Hampton read selections from
"The Fall of the House of Usher" in
such manner that a new light was
thrown on that charming but wonder
fully weird story. She was followed
by Miss Ware, who read an interesting
account of the way in which Poe wrote
"The Raven"
The attendance was good, but not so
large as it should have been. If the
people of Dawson, and especially our
young people, would take more inter-
est in literary societies a great and
desirable change would be wrought in
a few years. Several attempts have
been made to keep up literary socie-
ties in Dawson, but the work has al
ways devolVed upon the few, and those
who most needed the improvement have
been the ones who failed to attend
Dawson has several young ladies in col
lege now who will return next summer
and we trust they will take an interest
in this society and show what they
have been doing.
The next meeting of the society will
held at the home of Mrs. n. G. Bal
dWin on Fri day evening, the 10Th inst.

A Dawson Darkey Has Trouble With His
Truant Wife,

The Americas Times-Recorder tells
OF lively scene enacted in that town
III which two Dawson negroes were
participants. That paper says:
"A picture of domestic infelicity was
witnessed at the Central depot yester-
day when negro man tried to force
his truant spouse to go back to their
home in Dawson. Selling her by the
arm he attempted to drag her aboard
the train, but Officer Fletcher made
him release her and the train pulled
away without them. After the officer
left the depot the pair had it 'all
hands round for half hour, tearing
up the red dirt and ripping garments
with vengeance. The woman came

Elects Officers.

SPOKANE. Jan. I.-Speclal.--As recent
" announced in the Post-lnteiiigencer
the Spokane and Croker kindergarten
Associations agreed by committee to
unite and work as one. The two organ
izations in becoming one were TO he
known as the Spokane kindergarten
Union. All was amlcably arranged up 10
the meeting OF yesterday. when the desire
OF supremacy IN the election of officers
by the two old orga mutations brought
about a clash that practically has undone
all that had been done toward a united
association.
Each OF the old organizations. through
It's membership. attempted at the meeting
70 elect its particular set Of officers. with
the result that the entire membership OF
the old Croker association withdrew
from the meeting. Their spokesman an
nOunced that the Croker Association
desires me to state that 1t thinks best 10
take no further part in this union" and
thereupon they put on their bonnets and
left.
The outcome Of the meeting is the con-
tinuance Of the Croker association and
the carrying on OF its work along the
same lines as before a union was planned
or suggested.
