Mr. Asa Ammons, a well-known citizen of Jacksonville, Florida, was afflicted by a terrible ulcer. Medical skill seemed unavailing iu stopping tlie ravages of the terrible disease. The leg was swollen and intensely painful, as the ulcer had eaten its way down to the very bone. All medicines and treatments having failed to effect a cure, the doctors said the leg must come off.

If the poor inventor is not entirely ignorant of patent procedure, he knows i that the patent office makes nosearch to , test the validity of his invention, aud |so he conies to undertake it himself. If ihe finds that his invention appears in , no previous pab-nt, he is confirmed in ! his belief that he will at last see his | dreams realized aud that he will in a i short time possess great wealth. If, on the other hand, ho finds his ideas have been anticipated, bis dreams of fortune fade away like mist tiefare a morning sun, aud life, as he has known it for so mauy w< ary years—hard, toilsome, pit iless to those who, like himself, lack money—lies painfully clear before his view. A short three hours—or even less— spent in this library may plunge the man who entered it hopeful and bright into deepest despair, and it is certain that within its walls many silent trago ■/ies of this kind are enacted week by week and noticed by only few if any of those around.

Only one old tree marks the spot where the king used to sit administer ing justice to his subjects. A large part of this justice consisted in decreeing death among His indtmas or prominent men who had excited his suspicions or whose cattle he desired to appropriate. Sometimes he had then denounced—- “smelled out,” they called it—by the witch doctors ns guilty of practicing magic against him. Sometimes he dis pensed with a pretext and sent a messen ger to the hut of the doomed man to tell him the king wanted him. The victim, often ignorant of his fate, walked in front, while the executioner, following close behind, suddenly dealt him with the knobkerry, or heavy ended stick, one tremendous blow, which crushed his skull and left him dead upon ths ground.

The federated railroad brotherhoods are using thfir influence in the interest of the anti-ticket scalpers bill now pending in congress. The brotherhoods have taken up this question in their lodges through out the country and hundreds of petitions have been forwarded to Washington in support of the bill. The Macon . division of the Order of Railroad Telegraphers has just sent to Washington resolutions setting forth the fact that the operators favor the bill, and the petition was signed by a committee of local telegraphers representing the entire membership of the division and order in this section. Similar petitions have been forwarded by other Georgia lodges of the order also. The railroad men say they favor this bill because it will stop the use of scalp ers' tickets, which often give the conduc tors and ticket agents, many of whom are telegraphers, trouble and cause them loss. Many operators throughout the country are railroad agents, members ot the Order of Railroad Telegraphers, and they have experienced the effects of the ticket scalp ing business in many ways. The conduc tors say their members sometimes lose their places .on account of the misuse of worthless tickets sold by scalpers in some parts of the country. Aside from these reasons the employes recognize the injury the business causes the railroad companies, and they favor the bill for that reason, believing it is in the interest of the companies as well as their employes that the business be broken up. The resolutions adopted by the Macon telegraphers favoring the anti-scalpers bill is as follows: “Whereas, Believing as we do that the business of ticket scalping is illegitimate and injurious to the railroad companies of America as well as troublesome and unsatisfactory to the general public; and “Believing that said business has come to be disreputable and is fraudulently conducted in many sections of the country, causing the railroad companies and their employes and the public inconvenience, trouble and often loss bj‘ reason of the sale of worthless, forged and fraudulent tickets; 'therefore “Resolved, That we, the undersigned committee of railroad telegraphers and members of the Order of Railroad Teleg raphers of Atlanta and vicinity, repre"- senting that organization, respectfully re quest that our representatives in congress use tihelr influence in behalf of the bill now pending known as the anti-scalpers bill.” Its case, The only Restaurant for ladies and gentlemen in the city.
