Another Delightful Occasion.

The entertainment rendered the
Twentieth Century Club Tuesday
night, at the home of Miss Mary
Wilbourne. proved indeed a compli-
ment to the Club.
The club-room was artistic and
beautiful. The mantle was graced
by a bank of palms, touched now
and then by bits of color from gay
tinted blossoms peeping through,
while the wisteria made a tasteful
contrast and was the predominating
flower.
The business half-hour opened,
and selections were impressiyely
read from Tennyson. After the adj
journment of business excellent Sc
lections of music were rendered, and
next new and interesting games
were INDUCED in, and the Club tray-
elled over Peter Caudle'st trip around
the world q sSpring novel;. which
was spicy and rare and something
to change the course of entertain-
ment as canals cut through change
the plan Of a stream.
The next delightful feature of the
evening was a three course luncheon
of salad, margueriets and pickles.
The ices and cakes were in the usual
colors and dainty shapes.
The occasion vas complete in a
charming and graceful mode, as IS
always the case at the Wilbourne
home. CLUB EDITREss.

THE CIRCUIT COURT.

BRIEF MENTION OF IT's DoINGs FOR
THE PAST TEN DAYS.
The Judge, as usual, did not mince
words.
F~igurativeIy speaking, we pat our
worthy Circuit Judge on the back
A number of 'sblind tigers and
pistol-toters were found guilty and
sentenced.
The case Of the State vs.. Oliver
Boyd, for the killing of Houston
McCaskill, was continued.
Judge Cochran's charge to the
Grand Jury had ssbristies', on tit
is said that some peop e who heard
it fairly cripged.
In the james Abercrombie shoot
ing case, the Grand Jury returned a
bill against the McHenrys, father
and son, and theywere placed under
$780, 600 bond each for appearance at
the next term of Court.
In the case of the State VS.. Tom
Jenkins, charged with the murder
of Giles Jenkins at Wahalak in De-
cember last, the accused waived his
right to trial and plead guilty. He
was remanded for sentence.
The fact of the Judge of the Cir
cuit~Court having to leave his quar-
terss at night and goout on the street
in an effort to apprehend law-break-
ers, doesn't speak very well for some
officials as conservators of the peace.
1t is reported that the biggest
crowd ever seen in DeKalb a as
sembled there on the Goth inst, and
that there was more drunkenness
and shooting-off of firearms on the
streets that night than was ever
known before.
Scooba is bad, we'll admit; but
she's simply not in the same class
with DeKalb. Read what Judge
Cochran said of the latter place in
his charge to the Grand Jury:
If five acres of ministers were to
lay siege on DeKalb, they would
have a Port Arthur on their hands.
There's more hell to the square inch
in DeKalb than any place this side
of hell, where it is all hell.
Judge Cochran being disqualified,
Attorney Joe Rives, of Macon, was
appointed Special Judge in the case
of the State VS.. Matheny, assault
with intent to murder j. J. Briggs.
Accused was found guilty and sem
fenced to two years at hard labor in
the penitentiary. A man named
Kelly, as accessory to the above
crime, plead guilty and was sem
fenced to pay a fine of $50 and costs.
The case of the State VS.. Irwin
Henderson, for the killing of Hon.
II. M. Tam, was called last Thurs
day, it being necessary to draw Il
special venire to get a jury. A jury
was secured late Friday evening,
and the hearing of the evidence be-
gan Saturday morning and contin-
ued through Monday and Tuesday
and part of Wednesday morning.
At the time of u going to press
the attorneys were making their ar
guments. A verdict will probably
be rendered today.
