A Great Display of Flowers.

{. F. Gibbs opened his greenhouses to
the public on Friday and Saturday and
on both evenings the Conservatives were
brilliantly illuminated by hundreds of
lanterns and candles. The effect of this
display was almost Undesirable and it
was like visit to fairyland to see the
beautiful shades OF roses, pinks and
chrysanthemums lighted up by other
shades from the many artificial lights.
These Examinations were largely attended
by the public who were surprised to see
the great variety and choice stock Of
flowers shown.
Mr. Gibbs had on exhibition pinks and
chrysanthemum from the leading con-
servatories Of Boston and other parts of
New England, among this display being
pinks that sell at wholesale at 20 cents
apiece. In contrast to these flowers from
larger greenhouses Mr.. Gibbs individual
flowers showed up finely and were richer
in color and in many cases larger than
those of his competitors.
Mr.. Gibbs has at the present time the
largest stock OF flowers and plants he
has ever had and his assortment includes
about 5000 plants of various kinds OF
pinks, over 1000 roses and hundreds OF
chrysanthemums. In a few weeks Easter
lilies will be in bloom and he has 1900 OF
these plants. The collection of pinks is
the finest of the lot and he often picks
1000 flowers at time. This is also a
good year for roses and Mr.. Gibbs is
giving especial attention to these this
year with great success. Mr.. Gibbs nov
has six greenhouses and his trade in cut
flowers extends in all directions outside
of st, Tohnsbury. f'

Augusta, Ga. Oct. 24.-There are rumors
in Augusta tonight of apprehended
trouble in Edgefeld county tomorrow

mors both of the contemplated lynching

Augusta, Ca, oct. A.-Town Marshal
Hin of Thomson came down to Augusta

other negro of McDufie county, several
months ago
Marshal Hill brings the announcement
that Mr. John NJ. Barnes of Thomson,
United States marshal for the southern
district of Georgia. announced to-day that
he would make the race for Congress in
the Tenth congressional district against
Mr.. Fleming Mr.. Hill says that Mr..
Barnes told him so himself, and there is
no mistake about his making the race.
United States Marshal Barnes is a young
man who is personally popular. He will
poll the registered negro vote in the dis-
trict, and win get some of the Pc - list
vote, but it is probable that the majority
of the Populist vote will go to Congress-
man Fleming, who will unquestionably be
reelected. Mr.. Barnes has come into the
field too late to be specially dangerous
Fusion with the Populists could not be
effected that would be binding at this late
day, even if they would be willing to fuse
but Congressman Fleming has been very
acceptable to all constituents and will gel
a large Populist vote.

Jobs in Sight-Various Races Gath

Struggle ApprOaches-CIerks Of
the House a Lively Contest in
which All Aspirants Are Hopeful.
Atlanta, Ga. oct. 24-The corridors Of
the Kimban Rouse are packed and jam
med tonight with politicians. Even stand
ing room is al a premium. 1t is easy for
an experienced eye TO see that the aetiv-
ity thereabouis means thar the meeting
of the general assembly is very near.
Politicians from all parts OF the state
and candidates from every corner of the
commonwealth are in evidence ana the
fights for the votes for judgeships and so
ncitorships are growing warmer every mo-
menf.
Every train brings members of The next
house and furnishes candidates and their
friends new material wherew.th to work.
1t is the scramble for offices that pre-
cedes every meeting of the general as
sembly, but some think it is more of a
scramble than usual.
NO OineT race perhaps Is attracting az
much attention as that for the clerkship
of the House. At this writing the friends
of John Boifueilet and those Of the CAL
loway combination" are both claiming
sure victory. Boifueillet seems TO have
slightly the best of 1t. "Snollygoster"
Ham has arrived and is making a strong
bid for votes for the clerkship.
Speaking of the race in a general way,
Mr. Ham said in his characteristic fash
ion: 'If as alleged, this is sandwich,
you know what to do with the two sides
You throw them away and eat the ham.
I think I have the balance of power and
can afford to stand still and see the sal
walton. not of the Lord, but Of some Of
his friends"
The fight for the iudgeship of the Rome
circuit is getting very warm and money
is being put up on both sides. This morn
ing several even bets of considerable
amounts were made by partisans Of Judge
Henry and Col. Reece.
Hon. Walker Brooks of Rome. who was
in the legislature some years ago. came
down this morning to do some work for
Col. Reece. Col. Reece is here to-day and
has lots Of friends. He was a member
OF the last House, and many of the old
members will vote for him. Judge Henry's
friends are stouty claiming the race
The various other races are so badly
mixed 1t is impossible TO tell the outcome
