Fair Mass Meeting Tomorrow

The probability is that the mass
meeting called at the court house
tomorrow for the purpose OF dls-
cussing the county fair will snow
a much smaller attendance than
the importance of the occasion
merits. 1t is easy enough to neg
lect matter of that kind, to be
followed the next day by regrets.
If you are interested in Ben Hill
County, even if your interest IS
selfish, lay aside all other business
and appear at the court house at
about 10 o'clock. You will have
an opportunity to do something
for the county and it will benefit
you.
Don't forget the time and place,
and that you are expected to be
there. Tomorrow (Friday) at III

Big Things For Tech.

Atlanta, May 11-That the new
$4,000. shop building at Georgia
Tech for which the cornerstone has
Just been laid with elaborate cere-
monies, is destined to be only part
of a magnificent $15O,O0O. structure
which the institution hopes to have
in the fullness of time, is fact
which will interest all Georgians
who take a pride in the Georgia
School of Technology.
The present $4,000. was raised
after an arduous campaign, by a
$4,000. appropriation from the state
conditioned on the raising of $751;
900. by popular subscription. The
latter sum was raised, contributions
coming from ever part of the state.
Further Improvements, which will
not be hurried, but which are
eventually looked forward to, are
provided for by the arrangement of
the shops now building, Though
complete in themselves they are so
ARRANGED that the additions can be
made with out change, and without
alteration whal is already done.

Ben Talbot Funeral

The First Methodist Church was
crowded to standing room Sunday
on the occasion Of the Ben Talbot
Funeral. The procession was one
of the longest we have seen in this
city, being the length of S. Lee street.
The services were conducted by
Pastor E. j. Hammond assisted by
Rev. E. E. Hollingworth. There was
an abundance of flowers in many
beautiful designs, more than could
be heaped on the casket.

Mayor Paulk Goes to Nissis-

Mayor Drew W. Paulk is OIL on
a trip to New Orleans and Hates
burg, Miss. He will call on B. l.
Camp while out at Hattesburg'
who was at one time the popular
agent of the Southern Express
Company at this place. He fell
behind or got mixed in his &C
counts with the Express Company
and it became necessary for his
friends to put up about $500 for
him. Mr.. Paulk was among that
number who made notes with the
local bank which they have since
paid as Mr.. Camp failed to attend
to that important matter when the
notes became due at the bank.
Mr.. Paulk goes with papers from
the Governor and with full author
ity to get a settlement with MIR.

Georgia.
Mr.. Camp. Notwithstanding his
misfortune or probable misconduct,
left many warm friends in Fitzger-
aid although some of them believe
that he can now arrange for the
settlement or adjustment of his
delinquency. His popular wife
while he lived in Fitzgerald died
after they left here.

Stirring Revivals at Blakely

Atlanta, May 1.-THE Rev. Bob
Jones, of Georgia, an Evangelist
who is risin so rapidly in his chosen
field that many predict that he will
fill the place left vacant by the late
distinguished Sam Jones, is acquir-
ing national reputation. He has
just been invited to 90 to Montana
to take an active part in the prohi-
bition campaign in that far western
state, and has been prevented from
doing so by stress of engagements
in Georgia.
The Rev. Bob Jones is now hold
ing a series of meetings at Blakely,
which are stirring that little town
as it has not been stirred in years.
For the opening meeting all the
stores were closed, and all the public
schools were given a half holiday,
so that all work, all pleasure, all
education was suspended to hear
the gOlden-voiced minister Of God.

PICK UP A PIANO
IT IS GIVEN AWAY
$3.50 Cote Piano Needn't Cost
You a Cent. Ask Your
Friends to Help.
VOTES GIVEN TO CUSTOMERS
For Subscriptions, Job Printing
or Advertising at The Enter
prise Office or Merchan-
disc at The Bazaar.

That advertising is now a science
is again demonstrated practically to
the buying public of this section by
the wonderful advertising system
now employed by the enterprising
business of The Bazaar, which is
going to give away absolutely FREE
to some of their customers on De-
cember 26, 1911, the beautiful Cote
Piano which is now on exhibition at
their store. The piano sells for $3.50
and is a high class instrument in
every respect. Just think of it! A
$4,000 Piano to be Given Away!
A few years ago, if a merchant was
to do such a thing he would have
been considered a fit subject for an
asylum, but conditions have chang
ed, yet in the face of the enormous
sum spent in advertising the fact
of The Bazaar giving away $3.50
piano is stupendous undertaking,
and it clearly demonstrates their
desire to be always up to and a
little ahead of the spirit of the
times.
Every purchaser of ST worth of
goods from any department of their
store will receive a coupon good for
100 votes on the piano. For every
So subscription to the Enterprise
5000 votes will be given, also 100
votes for each Dollar paid on adver-
Using or job printing. The person
presenting the largest number of
votes on December 26th will receive
the piano absolutely free No favors
will be shown and every person will
receive an equal chance. The repu-
tation enjoyed by The Bazaar for
square dealing" insures this fact.
We think the buying people will ap-
preciate this extremely liberal offer
of Mr.. R. I. Maffett, and we predict
a lively scramble for votes When
making purchases, or paying fer
subscriptions, advertising or job
printing ask for votes.

BLETHEN-BONE
BREAK BREAD

BLEl f1EN-6ONE tell from the
BREAK BREAD lips of Our
friend David
King of Israel, several years before the
Christian era, and the cause for their repeti-
ton at this time is the meeting between Mr.
Scott c. Bone and the Colonel at banquet
in honor of the former in this city a short
time ago. These two bright, brainy men have
been friends for the past twenty years, and
that the editors of the two great dalies in
Seattle should be genuine tilicums, is in
deed cause for rejoicing by the readers of
the Times and Pr. The Colonel and For
mer Editor Brainard wasted no love be-
tween each other and the frequent outbursts
of one or the other in the columns of the
papers were regrettable occurrences. l am
told the meeting between the Colonel and
Mr.. Scott c. Bone was touching, and for
a time they were each others necks,
from which we may infer that the tie that
binds in this instance, is lasting one.
Considering these most favorable circum-
stances, I must indulge myself with a few
remarks for the benefit of the people of Sc
attic in general. The opinion generally pre-
walls that this is a government of any by
the people, and while such might have been
the fact fifty years ago, at this time it is de-
cidedly a government by the newspapers
and such being the fact, the responsibility
of these two talented men is far greater than
the people, or even Mr.. Scott c. Bone which
the Colonel realizes. If these two friends,
as editors of the Pr. and Times, will work
in harmony in their respective departments
for six months, they can and will drive
every CRATER and pothouse politician out OF
the state of Washington.
A few weeks ago our sheriff, Mr.. Robert
T. Hodge, was a candidate for the office of

Tells you of your mistakes and how to stear
clear of them in the future. Big-hearted
sheriff Bob Hodge lacks self-control.
Threatening the life of policeman Foraker,
and going to West Seattle to engage in a
fight with him over a tri1ing affair, shows
that he should learn to govern himself be-
fore he asks to be permitted to govern
others. He, for the time, forgot that the
sheriff is the ranking peace officer OF a
