GRAND RIDGE HAS
FINE. PICNIC

Grand Ridge, April 29.-The Chris
tan Endeavor society enjoyed a pic
ME at Blue Springs Thursday, and
large number took a day off for
pleasure and recreation. The day
was an ideal one for such an occa-

the pleasure of anyone.
By previous arrangement, the So
ciety met at designated place in
town, and were conveyed in autos,
fifty-three happy persons leaving
town at one o'clock, full of life, youth
and happiness. After reaching the
Springs, and taking a hbation of that
pure, sparkling water, the crowd di-
vided somewhat, some going bath
ing, others going to the cave to in
scribe their names on the soft lime
walls, while others sat in groups, a
few who preferred an exchange of
conversation to frolicking over the
woods.
At 5:45 the best part of the trip
was INDUCED in. 1t was a lunch, a
banquet fit for kings and queens.
Such a repast, such bounteous
| spread, gan only be prepared by the
c. f. society of Grand Ridge. Spring
chickens and turkey. sandwiches of
every variety, King Potato and Queen
Onions, felishes Of whatsoever de-
scriptions, knick knacks, and sweets
for the sweetest. Surely, one who
could have looked upon this table
would have said, ''Most assuredly,
hard times are not known at Grand
| Ridge"
After luncheon, all again boarded
the auto train, and in few mo-
ments were in Marianns, and after
taking in the town." seeing sights
in general, the entire number went
in body to the Dixie theater. Man
ager Laro had reserved seats for the
! delegation, and each one enjoyed the
| program immensely.

MAN IS ARRESTED
ON SERIOUS CHARGE

Walter and Lille Bonner were ar
rested Saturday at the instance of
the sheriff of Santa Rosa county
and were bound over to Sheriff Har-
veil during the afternoon, to be re-
turned to Milton for trial.
Bonner is white man, and the
woman, Lille Bonner, is a creole, it
is claimed. The laws of this state
forbid the intermarriage of people
of these two colors, and this is the
charge which has been made against
them.
Bonner, it is said, claims that the
woman never informed him whether
she was white or colored. She is of
very light complexion.
