L. C. Whittet for the Assembly.

1t is matter of qualification to the
republicans of this county that Mr. L. @.
Whittet has consented to make the can
vass for the Assembly in the First dis
trict. Not, however, until petitions very
generally signed by the leading republi-
cans of the district asking him to be-
come q candidate and assuring him of
their support did he consent TO allow his
name to go before the prim aries His
nomination papers now are being circu-
lated throughout the district and are
meeting with cordial endorsement.
Personally Mr.. Whittet makes an ideal
candidate, against whom not word of
criticism can be said. His reputation as
business man, so we'll known at home,
is such as to inspire confidence every
where in the district. He is not in any
sense politician, but representative
business man. And what our legisla-
lures need these times is larger per-
centage of successful business men.
There are evidences that this frenzy OF
reform that has taken possession Of our
legislative bodies the past few years is
on tho wane-a reform which resulted
largely in the increase of Office holders
and expenses of state government where
the taxpayers invariably foot the bills.
The business interests of the state, the
interests that must meet the expenses of
government, should have greater voice
in legislation.
Mr.. Whittet represents this class and
for these reasons will be welcomed as
candidate. If we mistake not, his nom
ination at the primaries in September
will have handsome endorsement.

READY FOR THE BIG PICNIC.
Race Program and Other Attractions
Arranged For.

The arrangements for the big event of
the year-the 10th annual picnic of
Father Mathews T. A. & B. society for
Wednesday, August 5th-have been per-
fected and the advertising matter is now
being distributed far and wide. The in
tention is to make this occasion bigger
and better than previous ones and to
to that end the attractions will have a
wider scope.
For the morning ball game team
from the GAINESVILLE Trolley league and
Footville. two of the strongest teams in
this section of the state will battle for
liberal purse.
At eleven o'clock prizes will be award
ed for the best teams of drivers. Single
lady or gent-1st s., I'd So, Sd 50; for
best double lady or gent drivers So, So
and 50.
Dinner will be served at the park as
usual by the ladies of st. Joseph's so,
ciety, which is sufficient guarantee of its
excellence.
An exceedingly fine race program has
been secured, five events in all with ag-
gregate purses of $500, commencing at
1890 o'clock sharp. These are: Free for
all, trot or pace, mile heats, purse $500;
2:l9 trot or pace, half mile heats, purse
Sl75; 2:35 trot or pace, purse $3.50; 800
trot or pace, purse 500; and special
running race for purse of S75. The in
ducements hung up are sufficient to Sc
cure big field of horses and some warm
finishes We shall be disappointed if
the racing program does not prove the
best ever seen on this track. There will
also be foot races and other amusements
to complete the day OF attractions.
The day, however, would not be COM
plete without the usual dance, which
will be given at Academy hall in the
evening. Our readers should arrange
their business so as to be present on
Wednesday, August 9th.

Operated on in GAINESVILLE.

Two cases for surgical operations
we're sent from here to GAINESVILLE the
past few days. Saturday evening, Carl,
the two year old scn of Carl Venske and
wife, was operated on for rupture, and at
this writing gives promise of perma-
nent cure On Monday Louie Geishart
was taken to the GAINESVILLE hospital and
underwent an operation for appendicitis.
The case was an aggravated one, but the
operation was successful and the latest
reports are favorable to his condition
and his recovery is expected, though it
may be slow.

HEADACHE TABLETS CAUSE
DEATH.
Mrs. Louise Tuller's Fatal Mistake.

- -~~>~~ $3.50 -
Two anti-pain pills taken to relieve a
headache was the cause of the sudden
death of Mrs. Louise Thomas Tuller, &C.
curing at the home of her sister, Mrs.
Will Carpenter, shortly after three
o'clock Tuesday afternoon. Complain
ing of splitting headache, she informed
her sister that she would take couple
Of pills and lie down for time and try
and get some relief from the pain. The
couch was in the living room but her
face was turned from her sister who sat
in the same room visiting with neigh
Dor who had dropped in for half hour
or such a matter. When these ladies
sought to inquire how Mrs. fuller was
feeling they were horrorstricken to find
that she did not awake. DR.. McChesney
was Immediately called in and found
that death had already occurred possibly
an hour before, and without the SEM
blance OF struggle. 1t is the opinion
of the physician that the drug affected
the heart action, which must have been
naturally weak as her symptoms were
anaemic.
There are no circumstances surround
ing the case which would indicate that
the death was premeditated.
The deceased was the daughter OF
Harvey Thomas and was born at Indian
Ford in 1883. She parted from her hus-
band soon after her marriage and has
since been living in this community.
Funeral services were held from the
NJ. E. church Thursday afternoon at two
o'clock.

Some person who happened to see
the fire on the Piper plantation last
night thinking it was in town, turned
in fire alarm. The fire bell rang
loudly but, owing to the noise of the
storm and the lateness of the hour,
only four or five of the fire boys
heard the alarm and turned out to
a rs ha Il
heavy hose cart about twelve blocks
through water half way up to their
knees. amid a down-pour of rain,
they found that the fire was outside
their jurisdiction and returned home
somewhat disguised at having been
called out in such weather and at
such an hour unnecessarily.
Among the new residences lately
built in Brownsville. one of the most
attractive is that built by Judge and
Mrs. w. H. Mason on Levee street
This is two story frame building,
and besides being quite roomy, it
combines elegance OF design and de-
tail with various modern conven-
fences. IL is painted a pearl gray
with white trimmings, and is alreadl
surrounded with beautiful palms and
orange trees. which add much to its
attractions. These trees. which are
nearly all fully grown were trans
planted during the height of the sum-
mer and the fact that they are grow
ing most thriftily now speaks well in
deed tor this soil and climate. This
beautiful home was designed by Mrs.
Mason herself and the success which
she has achieved reflects much credit
upon her ability as a designer.

brakeman. The car was loaded with
cattle and was brought into the state
