Reception

About fifteen ladies from
here attended the reception
given by Mrs. w. H. johnson
last evening at her home in Lo-
gan. The guests included la
dies from Dunlap, Woodbine,
Logan and this city.
The johnson home was very
artistically decorated in harvest
home decorations, pumpkins of
every size being used in the
different rooms. A punch
bowl concealed in a large pump
kin was placed in the back par
lor from which delicious frappe
was served. Refreshments
carried out in the harvest home
decorations, were served in the
dining room which was very
prettily decorated in candles
and pumpkins. The evening
was passed all too quickly and
at ten o'clock hacks came and
the ladies were driven to the
station, after assuring the host
ess they had indeed spent a
truly delightful evening.

To the Voters of Harrison Co:
| am the candidate for County
Treasurer on the Democratic
ticket. the nomination coming
to me unsought and entirely
unexpected, but it came, and
now / desire to be elected. !
believe that ninety-nine per
cent of the voters of this Coun-
ty think that no man should
hold this office for more than
two successive terms. My OPP
ponent, Mr.. Ogden, has been
County Treasurer for five years.
You know l am fully as compe-
tent, in every way, to fill this
office as Mr.. Ogden, and shoule
| be elected, you will get a.
good service as l can give. and
a square deal. | should like tc
talk this third term question
over with every voter in this
county, but the time is short.
and this is my busy season on
the farm, so won't you help me
out by talking it over with tho
voters. If you believe that two
successive terms is as long as
any man should hold the Office
of County Treasurer, vote for
me, unless Mr.. Ogden, or his
friends can convince you that
you are wrong.
Yours very truly,
j. F. Wood.

A WildR Ride Blind Folded

c. B. Griffith, of the Griffith
Comedy Company, who opens a
weeks engagement in the New
Theatre, commencing October
%, will undertake one of
the most difficult and intri-
cate tests known to the phe-
nomina of thought transfer
ance. The test in part is as
fellows:
At 4:l5 p. M, Monday, Mr..
Griffith will appear at the New
Theatre with four dashing
horses, hitched to a city hack
A committee of four business
men, who have previously been
selected by the Mayor will
drive a team a devious course
of several blocks about the city,
and at the conclusion will hide
a small article; a pin or a knife
for instance. While this is be
ing carried out, Mr.. Griffith
will be in the hands of a second
committee, whose duty it will
be to so securely guard him,
that he will gain no knowledge
as to where the team has beer
driven or the article hidden.
After the first committee have
covered the course and bidder
the article, Mr.. Griffith will be
produced, and after being Sc
curely blind folded, will drive
the team of four at a runaway
pace, following the course
track for track and find the
hidden article. Mr.. Griffith
enjoys the distinction of being
the only operator in the world,
whoever did this test with four
horses. The performance at
the Opera House bids fair to
eclipse anything in it's line that
ever visited our city.

BARONS TOCINCH BANNER

fifteen games. After the Montgomery
games. the Barons go to Nashville and re-
turn to receive Atlanta. From the Stag
pile Vaughn will take his men to Atlanta
and will then go west, via Montgomery
Now has come the time for the Barons
to cinch the rag. OF the fifteen games to
be played before the locals again hit
the road ten, at least. should be victories.
Ten will be victories if the Barons are to
go the entire season without losing a
series on home grounds. OF the thirty
three games that remain before the west
ern trail is struck, the Barons should
land at least twenty. If the pennant is
to he cinched before going west again, it
will be almost necessary for them to land
a score. The fans are behind Harry and
his men, and will boost for the rag. Bir-
mlngham wants the rag, and will make
one of the stoutest bids for 1t in the his
tory of the league.

Before Harry Vaughn leads his men
again into the west. he will play thirty
three regularly scheduled games, and
possibly several that were rained out, or
postponed from various causes. When
these thirty-odd games are played, the
Barons should have clnched the CORY rag
of battle for the slagpile. After an In
vasion of the west. during which dozen
regularly scheduled games, and several
postponed ones. will be played the Ba-
rons will return home and wind up the
season. Unless the unforeseen happens.
Birmlngham's chances for the pennant
are exceedingly bright.
With today, the invasion of the east by
the western clubs begins. Birmingham in
rapid succession entertains Memphis, New
Orleans, Little Rock and Shreveport. At

Constitutions Report.

Atlanta, July 15.-The Constitutions
cotton reports from the southeastern cot
ton states again show no improvement in
condition, rains continuing in most sec
tions, further retarding the progress Of a
crop already seriously embarrassed by
excessive early rains and a scarcity of
labor in consequence of which the crop
is badly In grass and but poorly advanced
for this season.
In some sections, however, notably
Southern Georgia, and the central portions
of North Georgia, the crop is said to be
in good conditions, and the prospects
bright for good yield. South Carolina
reports indicate that the crop is in worse
condition than last week, except cotton
planted in the red lands which is pro-
crossing fairly we'll In North Carolina,
without any exception. the plant Is report
ed as being below last year, and the size
of the plant small The crop is about two
weeks late.
