Interesting One.
Interesting One.

Friday, September 25th., will be
tfty years since the Chickasaw-
batchee Primitive Baptist church, one
mile east of Dawson, was constituted,
and preparations are being made
for appropriately celebrating the i'm
nortant event. Elder w. T. Everett,
who has served the church for many
wears during his ministry, is its pres
ent beloved pastor.
It is proposed to have reunion
Of all now living who have Wor-

gramme has been arranged for the
interesting occasion; Preaching by
Flder r. H. Jennings from 1890 to
71.3O a. M; conference and report
of committee on records Of the
church heard; intermission for din
ner. After dinner there will be a
song and prayer service, followed
with short talks by members and Wis
ting brethren, after which Mr.. Miles
Blackshear will give a short lesson
in the old Sacred Harp" to remind
one of the soul-stirring melody in the
songs Of long ago. Benediction.
Everybody is invited to attend and
carry well-filled baskets, and enjoy
the day with these good people.
Chickasawhatchee Primitive Bap-
list church is one of the religious
landmarks of this section, and in
pioneer days when this country was
sparsely settled people came there
from miles around to worship. It's
membership has always been COM
posed of many of our best and most
substantial citizens, and the influence
it has exerted FOR good can scarcely
be estimated.
That a large crowd will be pres
ent to take part in and enjoy this his
toric event on the 25th. there is no
doubt.

1T COST THE STATE 81, 600
DID READING OF A LONE BILL IN
LEGISLATURE SATURDAY.

A Dozen ASsemblymen Were on Hand
to Hear 1t. Extra Session Reached
End of Third Week. Nothing Done.
ATLANTA, September 12.-The
reading of one bill for a second time
IN the presence of about a dozen leg
islators is what the taxpayers of the
state got for the $1,000 session of
the legislature Saturday The mem
bers of the senate and the majority
of those in the house earned their
81 per by going home for the week
end. AS they get paid for Sundays
each draws practically So for the
simple performance of one bill be-
| ing read.
A ten-minutes' session of the house
of representatives constituted the
! full quota of work on the convict
problem for this day, although the
special session has now been on foH
practically three weeks at a cost Of
more than 100000, with the end "a
little less in sight than at the begin
ming.
The senate, which had house
bill in hand ten days before the regu-
lar session closed, which had another
convict bill in hand four days after
the special session began, which has
| refused to give countenance to the
recommendations of it's own confer
ence committee, spent the day in
blissful non-attendance. No session
of that dignified body was held, al
though the expense to the taxpayers
for the two days intervening between
sessions amounted to more than
$1,000.
The state treasurer has notified
the governor that some kindly dis
posed and patriotic bank must be in
duced to help the state along until
the peoples contributions begin COM
ing in. However, the treasury is not
yet quite depleted, and will be able
to weather the special session for
another week or two.

ANOTHER BIG DAY IN DAWSON
Nearly 900 Bales of Cotton Were Re
ceived Here Saturday, and People
Came by the Thousands.

Came by the Thousands.
The busy fall season is on in full
blast, and the prospects for a good
business in Dawson are very encour-
aging.
Saturday a week ago more than a
thousand bales of cotton were
brought in from the surrounding
farms, and last Saturday was another
big day, the receipts reaching 1913
bales.
Thousands of people were here
from half dozen counties, and in
the stores and on the streets could
be seen the Old-time appearance of a
busy Fall and the merchants were
feeling good over the splendid bust
ness.
The merchants of Dawson have
all bought splendid stocks, and in
every store the shopper will find
complete lines attractively arranged
and at prices that will bring a great
deal of trade here this season.

Always a Warm Welcome for Out of
Town Visitors at the Library.
The Dawson Library Association
has started out in the Fall work with
renewed vigor At the September
meeting it was decided that, begin
ming with October LIST, the library
would be kept open from $50 a. m.
to p. m, with the exception of an
hour or so at noon and tea time.
These extra hours will, of course,
call for an increase in the running
expenses, but the ladies feel sure that
there will be no trouble in meeting
their bills, as the funds have always
been forthcoming
The primary object Of the associa-
ton was to keep an open room
where citizens of both town and
county would feel free to while away
many a profitable hour, and to carry
out this object they think best to
keep open doors all day.
The librarian extends a hearty
welcome to out of town visitors She
is glad to see them at any time, and
wishes to impress the fact that there
is no charge; the reading room is
free.
A new and attractive feature will
be the children's tables with little
kindergarten chairs just to fit the lit
tie folks. The table will be supplied
with all sorts of picture books, such
as Uncle Remus, Mother Goose and
O+bo, foy,iJior friopdc
Until October list. the librarian
requests that books be returned only
during library hours; that is, from
to 5 p. m. After October 1st. the
hours will be more convenient.

NO MORE NEAR BEER.
Dawson Sellers of the Studs Have
Discontinued Business.


Discontinued Business.
Although dealers had until October
list, under the new city ordinance
prohibiting it's sale, to dispense near
beer Saturday saw the end of the
business in Dawson, and since then
there has been nothing doing at the
counters where the cold and foamy
suds were once dispensed to the
faded and thirsty wayfarer
Some of the dealers thought at
one time that they would attack the
action of the council in the courts,
but later decided that they did not
care to pay the state 5000 for the
privilege Of selling beer from now
until January LIST.
Recently there has been a good
zeal Of drinking in Dawson. Many
cases Of drunkenness have been re-
ported, and there are some who
think near beer is responsible for it.
