Our townsmen, DR.. s. S. Meroney, j.
G. Shockley, G. A. and Rembert Moore,
betook themselves to Whitewater, there
to seine. They returned with trout, etc.
enough to gladden. the hearts of the
mesdames, and no doubt feeling that the
shade Of isaao Walton was fuming in
envy. We who prefer fishing with silver
hooks could not forbear smiling out
loud over the wilted appearance of their
majesties upon their triumphal return.
The political meeting here passed off
very quietly, with the dear candidates
giving us their sublime flights of oratory,
wit and wisdom. We, of course, will
vote fof all
We learn that e Wesleyan meeting is
being carried on at Richardson's saw
mill and that considerable interest ia
being manifested among the employees.
We trust lasting good may be done.
Another pretty home will soon be ad-
ding to the appearance of our town. j.
G. Shockley begins at once the erection
of modern six or seven room cottage
for his foreman, Mr.. Etheridge.
Miss Pauline Grant, who is book
keeper for Carter e Company, Walhal]a,
spent Sunday at the home of her father,
Il. A. Grant.
j. S. Colley and wife, of Walhalla, Wis
tied the formers father last week.
Miss Bessie Grant, who is teaching at
Flat Shoals, spent the weekend with
homefolks. Miss Bessie is a young wo.

tempers, more or less, during the "rainy
season" we have been enjoying.(?)

Thursday night sought the distinguished
visitor to express appreciation of the
truths he presented and the ideals he I'M
folded.
Justice Brewer was escorted to Ensley
yesterday. and after returning to Birming-
ham said lie was not only greatly inter-
ested in the industrial plants, but amazed
at what had been accomplished in the way
Of development.
Last night Justice Brewer was enter
tanned by members of the bar at ban

that time he made Justice Brewer doubly
welcome.
Judge Jones was next called on to re-
spond to the toast, 1.-The United States

happy and telling style. When the jurist
