The I-ucy Cobh Institute ha* thrown open Its doors amt 125 young ladles answered the first roll call day before yesterday. Whit* all the member* of the faculty were on hand, many iror# pupils are espected to arrive shortly. Kveryth'ng point* to th# coming *#*- atou as the most prosperous In the history of the school. The new Fienrh teacher. Mile. Builel. has al ready produced a favorable Impres sion. While th* greater number of pupils are from Georgia, the south I* well represented In scholars from Igiuls.- ana, Tennessee. North and South Carolina and Florida. The course of study, or rather the standard, has been conalderably raised, the curriculum now ranking In certain studies quite as high as the University of Georgia. Mr M. O. Michael, who takes an Intense Interest In educational matters, has ottered another splendid prlie. a silver loving goblet, to the young lady taking the beet rank In history for the coming year. The outlook Is bright for Lucy Cobb and we trust that the class of '99 will graduate as many bright and winsome young women as have come from ihi* sterling institution In years past. A 10 Per Cent Dividend The annual meeting of the etockhold ers of the Clarke County Loan and Im provement company, of Athena, was held day before yesterday. A most prosperous year has been passed • through, the affairs of the company are in excellent shape and a dividend of 10 per cent was declared. Prof. L. H. Chartwmulf r tendered h'.a resignation, which was reluctantly ac cepted aud a graceful and hearty set of resolutions adopted on the severing of his connection with the company. Capt. ’V. A. McDowell was elected president. Mr. Meyer tSero flUs Prof. Charbonnier s place on the board of di rectors. Henry Grady’s Cotton Deal. The late H. W firady made but one speculation in his life and according to the New Yorg Sun, it turned out as follows: Mr. Grady went tm a fishing trip with a party of New York cotton bro kers and when they relumed from the frolic determined, to take a flyer. He accordingly bought 1,000 bales at 11.80 per pound—this was years ago—and had a ticker put in his office to watch I the fluctuations. w( , , ♦m IT A TrOTTF"* A **"*—'* *"■ T> %|m VN4RI ** » ‘ ifcMm WMi , nig AiMtfliMMi 4M& *£MM(IN§ MMk § i ' **-' %' <• f ** * *m* i 9 > iMam* t awwrws FACTS AM» FANCIES. !

A fly la no* very tall, yet It stands over six feet without shoes or stork- Ir.gs. A laboring hee produces honey; a belaboring 1» often productive of a black eye. as a punishment for people who listen at keyholes would be the proper thing. It Is said that truth lies at the bot tom of a well. Perhaps that's why the lawyer pumps the witness. A fish diet may not strengthen the brain, but a little fishing trip often tends to tnvtgorate the Imagination. The look of intelligence assumed by the young lawyer as he tackles ids Hi si case Is apt to enuse the presiding ijudge to lose confidence In himself. lIiVIOBS DSFINHIONS.

( he has managed his huge affairs In a way that has elecited the admiration of all business men and financier* and. | consequently, hi* opinion is worth | something out of the ordinary. He has even bested Uncle Russell | Sage on one or two occasions, and that \ doughty millionaire, who haggles over the price or decayed apple* on the I street stands, has a good opinion of George's financial ability. Mr, declares that the boun teous harvests will have a gr at ef fect on railway stocks and shares. He has been on a vacation of a cou ple of months abroad and begged to lie excused from expressing any opinion on the Philippine question nnd the coming races for the American cup. The Herald’s new Standard War At las Is a very timely publication, which seems to bo well planned to answer the questions which people are asking about countries In different parts of the world. The raar» are In sufficient detail to be entirely Intelligible, and the low price at which the atlas Is pub lished, 30 cents, will make Ignorance unpardonable. Realising the value of such an atlas The Augusta Herald ar ranged with the publishers for a spec,al edition. As this new atlas is not for , B le at any of the stores, our readers should hasten to send for a copy be fore the edition is exhausted.

Each year the use of the gas and oil stoves Is growing In public favor. For a long time the people seemed to !«' prejudiced against their use, but gradually this feeling Is dying out. Throughout the north and west there are an Immense numher of these stoves In use, especially during the summer season. They save fuel ex pense slid do away with a great deal of the objectionable summer heat. One reason that they have not been more generally adopted throughout the south Is that the colored help objects to their use and cannot handle them well. Several of the new houses in the city have been fitted with them, Isith for heating and cooking purposes. As the coal supply Is rapidly being consumed the progress of the small stoves is watched with interest.
