He Wa* a Prominent and Much Ea teetried Citizen ol Telfair. Mcßae. Ga.. Oi-t. 85.-—Hon Daniel M Mcßae, one of the founder* of thla town, was stricken with aptqdexy and died suddenly at 8008 yesterday. He whs 74 year# of age and was highly es teemed throughout thla auction of country. At the time the Macon and Brunswick railroad (now the South ern) was built, about 1870. he was liv ing on hi* farm here and owned alt the land where Mcßae and Helena now stand. A station was made near hta dwelling and named Mcßae In honor of the family Of that name tn the Cbnnty nnd of Gen. William Mc- Rae, formerly of North Carolina, who was superintendent of the railroad »t that time. A year later the county seat was moved from Jacksonville to Mc- Rae. und the town was Incorporated. Daniel M. Mcßae has held a number of positions of honor and trust and was one of the most popular men in Telfair county. He was elected to the legislature during the war between the states while serving in the Con federate army. Since then he has held various positions of trust nnd was chairman of the county board of edu cation at thp time of hts death. Re cently he became a member of the Presbyterian church and only last Sat urday he was canvassing the town for subscriptions to build a Presbyterian church lu Mcßae. Truth Is stranger than fiction to some people probubly because they don't cere for an introduction. Most youngsters at the present dr" learn so rapidly that it Is almost ii. possible for the high schools to keep up with them. When a man Is resigned to his fate, the resignation Is duly accepted.

Many of them j consider it an attempt on the part of the company to gouge. They do not think It worth any more to ride out to Dale aveuue and back than to ride around the belt, and they consider it unjust that they should be charged 15 cents for the round trip. Savnnnahlans pay more probably for street, car fares for the distance traveled and get less accommodation than Is paid any where else in this country.

Mr samuel Snider lectured at Asbury Methodist church here. Roth lecture# were well attended. At tbs lecture, every one buying a ticket waa given a m'wrlptlon to the Southern Home Journal. "How can you afford to fire sub scriptions In that way?" I ashed of Mr. Snider He said tbaf the expense* of getting out the paper was little and he bad found that he could well afford to do so For pluck and energy, considering the way they are handicapp'd. I say these young man cannot be given too much praiae. They have not let their biindneaa keep them back, but are forging ahead and giving their sub scribers an Intereating paper. Mr. Sam Snider haa composed sever al poems, two of especial interest, en titled "Father Adam’* Pfrailse," and "David and Goliath." These Mr. Snl- : der repeat* from memory at his lec ture*. The Younger Brothers. "What will yout* younger brother* do when they get through at school?" I asked Mr. Snider. "Perhaps go into the newspaper business with my olher brother and myself, or follow some * profession taught at the Institution. You know blind men learn to become excellent musician* and typewriters. Of course in dolug the latter an amanuensis is needed.” Mr. Snider waa a student at the Georgia Academy for the Blind # ai Macon for several years. His brother Will was also educated there. Hiß two brothers. Patrick and Jerry, are there now. Tbe latter are respectively 16 and 23 years of age. Mr. Sam Snider is 26 years of age. He is a pleasant talker and quite an intelligent young man. He says he and his brother propose as soon as they are able to buy their own print ing outfit. They live one mile from Mitchell station, on the Augusta Southern road. Deserve Credit. These brothers are the only blind newspaper men in Georgia, perhaps in the south, and indeed they may be the only ones tn the country. It is Indeed remarkable that they have done so well at the business, considering the way nature has handi capped them. That they may continue to succeed will, of course, be the wish of all who admire perseverance, pluck and en tuts wm fit«»A4»m *k v VRo -*»4i it MafiowM w> aa* iwwMJ aaaa*# #» lout • t 9sm 9999*9999*94* 1 ' * f-oiifTm- H f* 09* £0 *■. ; 0 noTiir°riiii *#ooo. 04,0 w >joff'f *9 itRK oir—ir“ t$ j i j i ‘-inif 0| • 0-f l |him» ] : m*m* Wii*'i* 0011011 0*99-099900 j Is 1 ■ mm»tt *m 10# «iHftM#A §0 Mbit ### • * [ 009 ?§OOR #0 f f s l*Mfio fufiii*** * * 409 9910 Vwrl §0 f *04999*1 00 904*9* . #» M# *0 %s> 44 j 004 000 i t|sw vwmm 04 0*099* TM» WO9 70# 0«0i 000MRM 0*44 o*o* Ml so** *#o 00| 4 0-00 *Ol #4 99m* fl'oo4 t» •t« * Mtlllili 940*4*0 Mil IM w099*4 09440 *00904 To94*' 0 90m 49* *494 >il • M'MO 004*00 90*400 40* fOIOOM TV# MnilPf MM* MflMMi- I*o* mm A-A -*-■ O«H| t W T %*■ ob# A*aa* a# hart rta rwflwwff as*# a»4 iA* Bwtlfivrs . tot M pewv#w '•Pe* m I , , . . ,gg tj,,■ m«ira tarty aad a- - ~ - Ty - gnat astow aa hoar Oa Jaa* it. int how**-# a rwwtw g ■#<*** hart Aftfll §OO *.JI Efff • 40*44, 00# •• 0 f§« 00|pPf 00|4MMNi MIIMl 1 00 10# w w»ff# 9r44 tftpoMl4 0t fMrt §0 0* t§MI tMMVf *9 foot §OOOIOO M tftMl tfUM 009 09 tM# t t«o* MOIOO tUmm m #'«oiit##o mil#* 00 Mmnr. 44* 9409*99 i*B9*fo4f* tk# W* j IcHttM 19400*00 049 § 09 1 0* boor* of filrwrtors ■-jf* greatfind sAatl A* as 4» Ay < 4Ba ewgtaeev <baa fifteen will** P*r koor with no# ear of paaaswfiwes twa.'ve aMHw wttA two ears, aad tea nait*# with tin* ran.** TA* B*Vt *agtae »WB#d by »b* Aii'k ("amitaa road waa aamrt th* W*«t pmat. aad atari ■ two a*U«o ta *>ght ■laate# TAa atat* legislature •tiyyef ta at rtl* polar aad dortarrt that tala | rat* of »pe#4 wa* *gr*ws4v# aad riaa getxiaa to bttmaa 111*, aad a* a row- ' •eqiMMu* Ah* cmayaay got a “borrtor" , car oa aarh trala.

Senator Vaat. after a can vaa* of th* state with him. aald he waa satisfied that Cockrell'* brigade was larger than all the rest of the Confederate army, and that there was epougb of them In Missouri alone to keep him In the senate for life It ta told of the aonlor senator, recall* the Columbia Herald, that there wa* Just I a bit of guile in his method of remem- ( bertng people's names. A number of years ago a large crowd had assem bled to hear him speak Before be ginning hi* address and while the band wa* playing, he ask d a prominent citizen of the place to caat his eye over j the multitude and see If h» could find any rot mbera of the old Cockrell bri gade. A few were pointed out to him. •'Give me their first name*.” said the senator. They were given. "Which one is most active In politics?" he anx- j lousiy inquired. A large fellow whom we will call Bill Jones was deatgnated. After the senator had finished his speech he dropped down Into the crowd and rushing up to Jones ex claimed: "Why bos- are yon. Jim. God bless you, n(d fellow, yon don't know how glad I am to see you.” Of courso Jim was amazed, but greatly flattered, and the next day was working for Cockrell 'lke a Beaver. "Why. boys.” he would say. "the old | general knew me as soon as he saw me. and called me Jim before 1 could open my mouth.” It is told by him. however, that he once got badly caught He had been talking at a country picnic with an admiring constituent, anil after vainly trying to ascertain tbe man's name without exciting suspicion, and discov ering that he was soon to be com pelled to betray his ignorance, he squarely asked the constituent: "See here, what is your name?” "Why. Smith, General; don't you know me?” “Oh, certainly,” answered the gener al quickly. “I know It is Smith, which one of the boys are you?" “Why. General,” answered Smith, in an injured tone. "I thought you knew that my father had hut one child?” For the first time the gen eral is said to have been floored. It was stated in a London police court recently that eight or nine shil lings can be made in a day at beg ging. A cheap coat doesn't necessarily make a cheap man, but it makes him feci that way at times. |FURNITURE OF THE OLD TI ME It Is Now Again th* Pad in Auguata. * MOMM» fit 10 (sffifil l.flAf{|loo 0 §llO #O9 H*f* th* »wta4 wf Mfe» s»w4*e«w to Mo r-T-rii a* * iiwr fTA~ir“T tortaff ww as# #wMMto wo#a*#* MaßMOstaw *w Bjcffia as I#*wn ATI wo* *A*w rta** ♦.. a 44« igsTl «KNaMIMMK# #’v* t mat filll.fii.

Tbe result Is a seßes of beaulifu' ooms richly suggestive of "beta de wa " One of these rooms I* owned by a wealthy matron, notcjl for her artistic talents. There la not In the entire roow* a modern note to mar the harmony of the perfect whole. Dreasing tables, beval mirror in ma hogany stand, four-posted tied, with old chinety hangings, low rockers, and quaint stools, all belong to tbe early half of the century, and are in reality Inherited from the owner's ancestor*. One of the prettiest rooms of this kind In the city Is owned by a golden haired girl of such fairy proportions that she seems quite lost In the apart ment of great furniture. The tied is huge, hut it is not sombre, tar it Is covered with a hand woven counter pane, snowy white and a hundred years old. while above are hangings of white dotted swtss. The same crisp material, so loved by our grandmothers, makes sash curtains at the narrow window*, drapes the graceful dressing table, cov er* the huge oheet of drawers, and cov ers the screen concealing the pictur esque washstand with Its gold-b&nded china, handed down from a great great-grandmother and cherished as though made of real gold. Another girl, vainly longing tar tb« genuine antique, has contented herself with covering her more modern fur niture with the green calico with white dots such as was used in coun try houses fifty years ago. The effect is both odd and pretty. The girl dis claims all credit for It, saying she ob tained the idea from a Boston fur nishing house where antique furniture is done over. Another aspirant for artistic honor has covered walls, floor and furniture of her dainty room in bright red Christy. The glowing lints are becom ing and cheerful. There are dozens of varieties In the same old ante-bellum theme, and the woman who erstwhile gloried in her modern white and gold bed chamber now hides her diminished head in shame, for she Is miles behind the.
