Some Strong Unison* Why it Should be Extended
Southward Into Florida.
The Tallahassee Moridiun is very anxious that
i the Oeorgfa Midland and Gulf railroad should be
j extended southward. In its last issue it has the
following:

the great volume of business that will pour over

is conceded as being the most convenient to a
vast population which would send down a multi
tude of travelers for health, pleasure or busi
ness. Florida is yet in the infancy of develop
ment. The largest state oast of the Mis
sissippi, her comparatively small popula
tion occupies but little of her area, and there are
thousands of now unoccupied but pleasant
places, either inland or on her 1100 miles of coast,
that will become homes or resells. The rapid in
crease of population of late years will continue,
as it has continued,without check, and the travel
to and fro increase proportionally. Any well in
formed person knows what a heavy railroad busi
ness this travel now makes, and its amount in
the future cun be calculated, and also the large
share of it that would fall to the route into
Florida via this section, as bcinff the nearest for
the people of a number of populous states.”
Dmtb of Sindo McDonald.
Susie, the fourteen-year-old daughter of the
late Mr. F. M. McDonald, of Stewart county, died
at the residence of her adopted parents, Mr. and
Mrs. J. R. Parramore, June 17th, after a week’s
illness of dysentery and effects of measles. She
was a bright and lovelygirl. whose death iH deeply
regretted by a large circle of friends.
Mr. T.

and leaves four children to mourn his death. He
was a consistent member of Broad Street Metho

place at 10 o’clock yesterday morning Rev. W.
A. Huckabee conducted the services.
The Trial Postponed.
The rase against Messrs. J. It.. F,. G. and
W. H. Maxwell, charged with assault

Justice Wynne’s court yesterday for a pre

day. A warrant has also been sworn out against
Mr. J. F. Moore, charging him with the same of

she could seldom get home until after 12 o’clock,
and that rather than have unpleasantness at
home she had refrained from going to church
anymore. She said that she would not have
spoken of the matter blit for the fact that throe
other women of her acquaintance were atso kept
from attendance by similur circumstances. She
gave me the names of the women and I called up
on them and found her story to be exactly true. I
laid the facts before my husband and he deter
mined to make a change in his programme. In
stead of reading all the hymns he merely read
the first verse of each, and he began the service
precisely at 10:30 whether the congregation were
on hand or not. He shortened his prayer toH
minutes instead of 15. His sermons were com
menced by 11, never later than 10 minutes after,
and always concluded by 11:45. Within three
month si after he had made the change there was
a revival in the church, and one of the first per
sons brought in was the husband of the woman

New Rooks.
The following list of books has just been re
ceived by the public library and are ready for cir
culation. The library committee earnestly re
quest that readers exercise their best care with
the new books. Most of these have exquisite
bindings and their external beauty should he
preserved. Again, do not turn down the leaves
of the books, but use book-marks. The books
arc:
Miscellaneous, viz:
Prime Ministers of Queen Victoria, by G. Bar
nett Smith.
Triumphant Democracy, by Andrew Carnegie.
Railroad Transportation, by Hadley.
Talks with My Boys, by Mo wry.
Three Martyrs of the Nineteenth Century, by
author of “Cotta Family.”
Novels, viz:
Far From Home, from German of Von Derval.
Without Blemish, by Walworth.
Aliette, from the French, by Fen ill et.
A Daughter of Fife, by Amelia Barr.
Mrs. Peixuda, by Luska.
The Garroters, by Ilowells.
The Midnight Cry, by T. M. Parker.
Richard Feverel, by George Meredith.
Illustrated edition of Charles Dickens in fifteen
volumes, in large type.
The public, and especially the subscribers to
the public library, are cordially invited to pay
frequent visits to the library rooms.
The rooms are commodious and elegantly fur
nished. The newly elected librarian, Mr. Her
bert L. Manson, is feady to show every courtesy
to all persons visiting the library.
Fashion Fancies.
Feminine ‘headgear used to be a bonnet, hut
now we know it as a “dream” or a “symphony.”
Leghorn hats—liinbcornets, as Boston ladies
call them -are considered, says an exchange,
the acme of elegance, because there is no possi
bility of their ever becoming common.
Collars are so high in linen, says the Boston
Courier, that they are appropriately called “cut
throats,” and the young women who wear them
look as if they had chronic still'neck.
Parisian ladies have their reception and
theatre bonnets trimmed with paper flowers..
The effect is declared to be delicate and ex
quisite, far more so than flowers of cloth, linen
or velvet.
Buttons this season are exceptionally beautiful,
notably so the French imported examples in tor
toise shell, amber, coral and jet. They are too
expensive for playing “button, button, who’s got
(he button.”
Lorgnettes are in high favor among ladies with
whose optics there is nothing whatever the mat
ter. It i* so “cute,” you know, and “so like my
friend, the Duchess of Philamaclick, who lives in
London.”
Corduroy suits, tailor-made, of course, are be
coming as lush ion able here as they have been for
some time past in London. The only objection
demoiselles have to corduroy is that “it never
wears out.”
Fashions and styles in “gowns” for seaside and
country are very beautiful, airy and wlmt may
be called “stunning." But nevertheless there is
annually a great deal of this sweetness wasted on
the desert air.

The above totals show that the old interior
stocks h se decreased during the week 12,908
bales and a.e to-night 58,220 bales more than at
the same period last year. The receipts at the
same towns have been 6410 bales more than the
same week last year, and since September 1 the
receipts at all the towns are 712,044 hales more
tha i for the same time in 1884-5.
The exports for the week ending this eseniiig
reach a total of 32,028 bales, of which 24,348 were
to Great Britain. 995 to France and 6685 to
the rest of the continent.
The Chronicle comments on its table of re
ceipts from plantations as follows :
The above statement shows —1. That the total
receipts from plantations since September 1, 1885,
are 5,322,2.54 bales; in 1884-85 were 4,735,612 bales;
in 1883-8*1 were 4,774,1.58 bales. - »—•
2. That, although the receipts at live outports
the pa'st week were 2T,8>si bides/ thy nctualjlxbw-
ment from plantations was only 11,248 bales, the
balance being taken from the stocks at t lie in
terior towns. Last year the receipts from the
plantations for the same week were — bales
and for 1834 thev were 804 bales.
In the table below we give the receipts from
plantations in another brm, and add ti. (hem
the mt overiund move.m it to June 1, ami also
It will he seen by the above thut the increase
in amount in sight to-night as compared with
last year, is 836,362 bales, the increase as com
pared with 1883-84 is 803,047 bales, and the de
crease from 1882-83 is 401,318 bales.
The Chronicle’s telegraphic weather reports
for the week are thus summarized :
Our telegraphic advices to-night indicate that
over a considerable portion of the south there
has been an excess of rain. In Texas, however,
and also in the greater part of the Atlantic states,
the weather has been favorable and the crop
is making good growth.

Leisure Hour.
If for forty-eight hours you can keep ev
ery drop of liquid from a room the flies in
it will leave it. But the prohibition is ab
solute. A drop of dew on a rose leaf, still
more the congealed breath on a window
pane, gives quite as much fluid as the thirs
ty little fly will ask for. But a good house
keeper will remember this rule so as never
to leave a pitcher of water uncovered in a
room which she wishes to enjoy a nap in,
or in which she means to place a guest.
■ And she will carefully cover any cup, mug,
glass or other vessel which contains liquids.
Observe, next, that the fly is a tropical
! insect, dislikes cold and cannot bear it long.
I For the same reason, probably, he is dis-
| concerted, even on a warm day, by a
I draught of air. Dr. Franklin, you will re-
| member, proved that a man might be
killed, as if frozen to death, by a swift
draught of air, even at the temperature of
100 degrees Fahrenheit. For practical pur
poses the fly knows this as well as Dr.
Franklin did. So soon as your patient
leaves a room, open the windows enough
to start all the draughts possible. Have
paper weights in abundance to keep hand
kerchiefs, books or all other movables in
place, that no one may have an excuse for
closing the windows.
The old New En gland housekeeper sup
poses that flies dislike darkness, and the
old treatment of summer rooms is to keep
them dark when they are not occupied by
men, women or children. But I think this
is an error. The fly, in darkness, simply
recedes into his dens and caves and holes
of the earth. So soon as the light comes
he is out again and seeking his prey. It
may be observed, also, that the apparent
reason why he annoys your patient as he
does in the early mornings when no one
else is awake or wants to be, is simply that ;
he has been chilled at night and now seeks i
a warmth of the pillow or the cheek. He |
is not at that moment seeking food. If ’
you have been careless enough to permit •
any flies to sleep in the room with your i
patient, you can draw them to another I
corner by lighting one or two kerosene
lamps with such an arrangement, for in
stance, as every oil stove gives.
You should not have had any flv in the
bedroom. Nor would you if the whole
house had been kept in proper condition.
If the establishment is large, the superin
tendent, if intelligent, will certainly detail
a competent person early in the spring to
the special business of keeping out the
flies and seeing that no more ore hatched,
if you are in a private house read this
article to the housekeeper, and concert
with her thorough measures, taking pains
to interest and instruct tne servants.
Sfn-uglli and I)ii*t.
The Roman soldiers, who built such
wonderful roads and carried a weight of
armor end luggage that would crush the
average farm hand, lived on coarse brown
bread and sour wine. They were temper
ate in diet, regular and constant in exer
cise. The Spanish peasant works every
day and dances half the night, yet eats
only bis black bread, onion and watermel
on. The Smyrna porter eats only a little
fruit and some olives. He cats no beef,
pork or mutton, yet he walks off with his
800 pounds. The coolie, fed on rice, is
more active and can endure more than the
negro fed on fat meat. The heavy work
of the world is not done by men who eat
the greatest quantity. The fastest or long
est-winded horse is hot the biggest eater.
Moderation in diet seems to be the pre
requisite for endurance.

A Frofitaliie Iiiv4 k fitineiit.
Hon. J. H. Stead, State Senator in Colorado,
writes: “Thirty years ago I took a policy in the
Mutual Life for $1,000, annual payments $22.08.
which I paid : or 20 years, making $465. Fur the
last ten years the premium has been paid by the
dividends. In other words, I have not paid any
thing for ten years I am now informed from the
general office of the Company that my policy is
worth $1,800. Had T continued to pay the pre
miums in cash, as I should have done, the policy
would be worth .$2,300 to $2,400. But I have se
cured $1,800 for my family by an investment of
$165, which is an excellent showing. I recom
mend Life Insurance because I believe in it, and
believe in the Mutual Life Policies.
Yours truly, J. H. Stead.
