Several negroes pleading guilty to misdemeanor charges in the Superior court Monday, were handed out some plain talk by Judge Rawlings, along with some heavy sentences, and these timely warnings to the others who heard him will most likely be of bene fit. Judge Rawlings referred to the fact that many negroes assumed to take the iaw in their own hands and put pistols in their pockets, which lead them into trouble, and that the court and their books might as well be des troyed if the courts did not punish adequately such offenders. He made it quite plain that such culprits might expect no mercy at the hands of the court, and that he had little patience with the pistol toter. The carrying of deadly weapons by any class of people is much to be re gretted, and the dauger by them Is ev er present, if carried by shiftless ne groes. and the judge’s warning, and al so the sentences imposed will likely result in less violations of the law in thia respect. These negroes had all narrowly es caped becoming involved in very grave and serious crimes, and for this reason the lesson to them will be a severe, but no doubt a fortanate one. for rent.

One of the few homes that can be rented for a reasonable price. Sandersville Investment Co. G. H. Howard, M’g’r. This proposition from Washing ton is music in our eurs. The disappearance of our forests and the machinations of the Paper Trust have made the price of pa per soar like a Wright aeroplane. At the rate we are going now pa per is destined to be beyond the reach of ordinary mortals—paper railroads will cost more than real ones, and paper soled shoes will be a luxury which only the rich can enjoy. If something isn’t done about it, a day may come when the Sunday newspaper^ will be no larger than the atlas of the world, and magazines will cost so much to get out that there will be no room for the advertisements. But it seems we ure to be saved from these awful possibilities. With every farmer growing cook books and carwhtels and fire proof theater curtains in the va cant lot behind the barn, there is little danger of a world-wide fam ine in paper.—From Success Mag azine. s RESULT OF TRIALS IN HIGHER COURT Many Cases Are Disposed of During Weeks’ Sitting, Try The Herald for your next job work. Paper From Corn-stalks. Uncle Sam’s busy chemists in Washington have decided that cheap paper can be made from corn-stalks. We have long known that wrapping paper is manufac tured out of old rags, that the back fence can be turned into per fumed and tinted stationery, and that newspapers are made of primeval forests and damaged reputations. Now they tell us that a common rural nuisance is an asset—that some day every farmer can be his own paper trust. A SERMON BY REV. CHAMLEE Baptist Pastor Famishes Christinas Article at Oar Request.
