Mr.. Curran K. Ellis, the we'll known Macon
Architect, was here today figuring on the plans
for residence for Mr.. E. w. Stetson.
The lies, the discharged negroes are telling
about the Brownsville affair, have made one Inn
preston on all who have heard or read about
them.
That impression, is that they are lies pure
and simp neither reasonable nor plausible
Yes, Pearline, we are well, and, if any soap
stick should inquire, we are doing well. busl'
ness is good and most of it is good business.
Our friends are loyal and our neighbors gener-
Gus. The. Enterprise has never had better
business, and it has always paid dividend and
it's stock has never sold below par.
If the Exaggerated ego'' is evidence of
insanity the contractors will not be able to
keep up with their orders to build new crazy
houses-Thomasville Times Enterprise.
Aud that's not the worst of it, nearly all of
the best people would be locked up. Its right
sorry man that hasn't got an Exaggerated ego"
some where about his clothes.

one wrought with her own hands heart, bows
and things, and it has place in the Office gal
lery. On it we have written her maine ,Adua

Fitzgerald does not allow any hack or dray

Where does our esteemed contem porary
get his information? The editor of this paper
is prosecuting cruelty to animals" case, in
which the buck driver of a team of skeleton
ponies was lashing the hungry beasts along
with lash that he calculated was substitute
for oats.
The idea expressed is in keeping with Fitz-
gerald pride, but the statement of our Way.

He is probably careless about his authority.
The forest fires are not only making the
