The Waterworks Proposition.

Through the efforts of Mayor Dickin-
son and the editor of this paper, con-
ference was had here last Friday between
CITY council and Mr.. j. B. McCrary. of
Atlanta, engineer for the city electric
light plant, in regard to waterworks for
fire protection on main street. MI. Jno. e..
Cope, president of the cotton mill. has
shown much interest in this matter Of
fire protection, and at his suggestion the
matter was taken up recently. Mr.. Cope
has agreed to allow the use of the cotton
mills fire pump, getting water from their
large new reservoir. However, it seems
to be the general desire that the town
should put in pump at the electric light
plant, connecting on to the mills boilers
for steam in the day time and gettingwater
from the mills reservoir. In case OF fire
at night the boilers at the light plant
would be utilized. Mr.. McCrary offers
to put in the pump, hydrants, pipe, con.
nections, ETC., all complete for $4,000, and
fully equip the fire department for $1,000
more, making total cost of $4,000, which
would save Us $1,000 year as well as
giving fire protection.
The plan is to put in 10-inch pipe from
the light plant to the railroad, 8 inch pipe
across the railroad in front of the court
house, and s-inch pipe from Hays's corner
to the cotton mill corner.
The Southeastern Tariff Association
has been consulted by Mayor Dickinson
and Engineer McCrary, and full details
for the installation of the system have
been secured. The Association will, If
the waterworks are put in according to
their specifications, place this town Tor
rather the property within five hundred
feet of the water mains) on third class
rating instead of fourth-class as at
present. Every step that has been taken
is in accord with their plans and every
requirement will be carried out. All
these matters will be explained at the
meeting Thursday afternoon, and the let
ter from the Association guaranteeing
the reduction in rates will be read. If
you want waterworks, come out and say
so. Whatever your opinion is, come to
the meeting.

Tho First SoDpA1fe.

There - an Indian legend that Bran-
ma, the creator. once committed q SIN
that be might know the torments OF
remoese and thus be able to sympa-
fhize with mortals. But the moment
he had committed It he began repeat
ing the mantras, or prayers Of purid'
cation, and in his grief dropped on the
earth a tear, the hottest that ever fell
from an eye, and from it was formed
the first sapphire.

Cotton Stolen.

A bale of cotton belonging to Mr.. d. C.
Folk was stolen from the railroad plat
form last Saturday night. Suspicion
pointed to Ed. Kirkland, a negro, and he
was arrested Sunday and put in jail. On
Monday he waived a preliminary hearing
and was released on bond. The cotton
has not been recovered yet, but 1t is
thought it will be found in a short time
It is said that the circumstantial evidence
against Kirkland is strong.

QUAINT PRESENTS.
Odd Wedding Gifts That Have Been
Received by Celebrities.

Received by Celebrities.
Celebrities are often the recipients Of
quaint presents. For instance. on the
marriage of Queen Victoria the farm
ers Of East and West Pennard, .SSmer
setshire, wishing to show their loyalty,
manufactured from the milk Of 750
COWS an immense cheese nine feet in
circumference. The gift was gracious
~ accepted and was stored at Buck
ingham palace. where it would un-
doubtedly have found its way to the
royal table had not its donors wished
TO exhibit It as an advertisement
Their request was granted, but after
it had been exhibited and the makers
would have returned it her majesty
signided that owing to the altered con-
ditions she could not accept it as a
gift.
An equally homely gift was made to
the late King Charles Of Wurttemburg
on the morning of his marriage to
Princess Olga Of Russia. A peasant
woman sent him pair Of trousers Of
her own design, with a note expressing
the hope that they might be found a
better cut and fit than those which she
had last had the honor Of seeing his
majesty wear.
The Italian singer, Signor Mario, in
spired a hopeless passion in the hearts
Of 50 many women that at the time Of
his wedding some Of this affection
found expression in various strange
gifts. One was In the shape Of a
cushion stuffed with tresses from the
heads Of many Of his hopeless admir-
ers. Another was from lady in Mu-
mich who had had one Of her teeth set
in a scarfpin surrounded with pearls
and emeralds. In an accompanying
note she expressed the hope that by
sometimes wearing the gift he might
be reminded Of his unknown worship
