Finally a runaway couple arrive and want the service of a justice or a clergy man and state that they are strangers and ask the farmer if he can direct them to a justice or a clergyman.

Dur ing the talk the farmer remembers his clerical friend and aska the couple in, introduces them to tiie minister who soon makes the two man and wife. A marriage license is then produced and the farmer and his wife sign it as witnesses. In due time the farmer gets word from the bank that his note is held for SI, 000.

Fresh Oysters at Loveland's on and after August 20th- TO THE GREAT FOItEPAUGH SHOWS A HOLIDAY FOR EVKRTBODY AT SMALL EXPENSE. Excursions will not be run frequently although this Columbian year is to be a great one for traveling and sight seeing. There is one however, that everybody will have an excursion and that will be when the Adam Fore-paugh Shows exhibit at Concordia on Saturday, August 26 Nothing like these shows has ever been seen in this or any other country before, for be sides the usual and standard features of circus, hippodrome, museum and menagerie, they contain this year magnificent representation of the scenes and battles of 1776 the Revo lutionary War. This is not an ordi nary drama or panorama or spectacle.

It is a combination of all kinds and forms of entertainment on a grand scale. 1,000 men, women and children take part in it, all of them correctly costumed in the uniforms and dresses worn by our ancestors at the time of the revolutionary war; cannons, guns, swords, and all the ac coutrements of war are used exactly as they were then; superb special seen ery showing the celebrated scenes of the great events of the revolution; and with all this magnificent equipment the story of how the glorious heritage of freedom was won is told in living illustrations. The value of this kind of an entertainment cannot be under estimated by any patriotic citizen who wants to know himself and have his children know the history of his coun try The shows are replete with other novelties. The trained animal exhibition is something far beyond any thing ever attempted, and over sixty trained wild animals will perform all kinds of feats, in fact they do almost everything but talk; and a host of other entirely new features that re exhibited for the first ttme in America. Thus it will be seen that all will have extraordinary inducements to go to Concordia On the Great Forepaugh Ex A GEORGIA STORY.

8n Hmifry Man ud Their launch at a Barbecue. At a recent barbecue in Southwest Georgia seven strange and hungry looking men were seen huddled to gether in a corner of the woods re mote from the big crowd. Bat now and then, while the "car casses" were roasting the pits, one of the men would come forward, get a whiff of the savory meats and re turn to his disconsolate companions. Wo one seemed to know the men they were strangers to all, and yet they had the appearance of farmers who had raised a big crop of cotton at six cents. But everybody knew them after the horn blew for dinner.

With a mad rush those hungry-look ing men made for the table and with, wild eyes and open mouths they went to work. Shoulder after shoulder of beef dis appeared, the men devouring every thing in sight. The crowd stood amazed and forgot that it was hungry, too. Those seven lank men were the attraction, and it was not until they could eat no more, und had crawled off to rest or die, that the people remembered where they were and that they had appetites. The chief of the barbecue ap proached the men, and in a faint voice asked: 'Where did you fellers come from, and when did you eat before you struck this neighborhood?" One of the men answered: "We come from this county, but we've been a-hidin' an hungry.

We es' heard that the war was over, an that Sherman was givin out rations, an' so we thought we'd git some!" The chief of the barbacue fainted, and they carried him from the field more dead than alive. Want tha News. Don't forget the editor when you have a news item.
