Our subscribers who receive thoir papers
throueh the San Marcos postoffiee have no
doubt noticed our new style of addressing
their papers in print, and the date amxed
to each name. It is soercely necessary tnat
we should explain that those dates show the
exaot time to which each subscriber lias
naid. so that he can always see how his
aocount stands. When a subscriber pays
his subscription for a year or loss, we ad
vance his figures accordingly. For instance,
he has paid to January 1, 1888, or J 889,
and pays for anothor year, we simply move
ud his date another year to 1889, or 18'JO, as
the case may be. By the way, it would
give us very great pleasure to advance all
our subscribers who have not paid up in
the manner we have stated. Wo shall vory
soon extend this admirable improved meth
od of addressing and keeping subscription
aooounts to the rest of our list.

Rev. Mr. Beverley, father of the bride.
A a is nsual on wedding occasions in San
Marcos, the church was crowded to its oa-
paoity. The ushers were Messrs. J. M. Lyle
and Joe King. The attendants were Mr.
W. H. Nanoe and Miss Nannie Talbot, and
Mr. R. W. Leavell and Miss Fannie Talbot.
Mrs. Walter Denny played the wedding
march. The bride appeared en costume,
with veil and train. After the ceremony a
reception was given to a select few.
This appears to us to be a very congenial
and appropriate union. The bride is a fair,
accomplished and worthy lady, while the
groom is one of onr steady-going young
hnsincss men who are bound to sueoeou.

Kccils Prompt Attention.
We are reliably informod that very Im
proper liberties are boing taken with the
Chautauqua ground and the property there
with inclosod. The gates somohow are frr.
quently Wt open, and the grouuds are b'
jug usod as a cattle pasture. Not only so,
but the boys are tearing up aud damaging
valuable property on sa'd grounds. The
proper authorities should at once look to
this matter.
Look Out for Them.
We notice that several of our contempor
aries are running notices of the Walter A.
Taylor Co., Atlanta, On., Dr. niggers Huok
leberry Cordial, etc. They got into us for
two quarters advertising and then went
back on the pay, Our esteerred contem

vise them to koep a sharp lookout.

Some sneak thief got away on Monday

which he valued very highly. The thlof, if
found, should be arrested aud puniuhed.
