“Oh, yeo; it is not what you might really
ill chilly, but this is not bad weather,"
call

— - — 111 uu ms
morning round, and after wringing a
quart or perspiration out of his hair, drink
ing seven glasses of ice water and fanning
himself lor ten minutes had ventured the
remark:
“It’s hot!”
“You mustn’t complain of these salu
brious zephyrs,” continued the relentless
tormentor; “why, they are as wintry blasts
compared to the ton-id weather they are
having elsewhere. Do you recollect how
intensely cold it used to be up around Fort
Assinaboine, Montana, last winter?”
“Something like 200 degrees below zero,
wasn’t it?” ’
"More or less; yes. Well, do you know
that that was the hottest place on the con
tinent of North America last evening ?”
“Great Heavens I”
"Fact. The thermometer was drawing
around in the neighborhood of 103 up there
while down in New Orleans at the same
moment it was 80. How does that strike
you? Now, why don’t you bawl about
hot weather? Have you got nerve enough
to say it is even slightly warm around
here ?”
The miserable scribe groaned and gasped
out: “And that’s where they go to get
•cool, too, ain’t it ?”
“That’s the place,” said the weather
man. “Why, it was not as hot in Pensa
cola, Fla., the southernmost signal station
in the country. There it was only 86 de
grees. Oh, you want to go to the north
west to get cool. Qo up to Das Moines,
for instance, where it was 94, of up to Ft.
Custer, or Ft. Buford, Montona, where the
mercury was making love to the 99 point
on the thermometer. And then they had
a red hot night of it, too. At Ft. Buford
and Ft. Custer, where they usually
have a temperature of 40 or 60
degrees below zero during the
winter, it was 92 at 10 o’clock and the
Mormons out in Salt Lake City were per-
.spiring at a 90 degree stage at 10 o’clock.
In Cincinnati it was only 74. This, you see,
makes Cincinnati a choice place as a sum
mer resort. The northwest is played out.
“Well, what are the signs to-day ?” asked
the newsman.
“It is generally cooler all over the coun
try to-day. This morning it was 68 de
grees above, with indications for a con
tinuation of a warmer and fair weather.
No signs of rain.”
RAILROAD MATTERS IN DOOLY.
Tlii' Proposed Kxtriitlon of the AmerleuK, Preston
and bumpkin Itnilroad.
Vienna, Ga., July 13.—Railroad matters
in this section within the last few days
have assumed a highly interesting phase.
Last Saturday a large and enthusiastic
meeting was held at this place in the inter
est of the proposed extension of the Ameri-
■cus, Preston and Lumpkin road, via Dray-
and the quota of subscription required of
that county was pledged on the spot. Col.
Hawkins, president of the Americits Pres
ton and Lumpkin rood, addressed
the meeting, and explained in
detail the manner in, and terms
on, which the road is to be extended
through the territory already mentioned.
A committee of nine was appointed to can
vass this county for Dooly’s share of the
required subscription, composed of some
of the wealthiest and ablest citizens of the
•county. Thirty thousand dollars is the
amount to be raised, and it will be done at
•once. The committee comprises D. B.
Leonard, S. W. Coney, T. J. Ray, J. P.
Heard, J. H. Woodward, J. D. Pate, J. T.
Collier and R. S. McDaniel. We are ii^
earnest about this road and mean to have it.
To-day a representative of the Covington
and Macon rond was in Vienna soliciting
right of way for the Florida extension of
that road, which will come by Snow and
Vienna. He asked for no subscriptions,
and the right of way will be freely given
by our people, as we want that road also.
The line of the Americus division of the S.
D. and W. railroad has not been definitely
located yet, but it is presumed it also will
come by Vienna. So, between them all,
Dooly seems reasonably sure of one or
more” railroads through her rich but unde
veloped territory. We are mostly pinning
our faith at present, however, on tne A. P.
and L. road, as we are putting our money
in it.
WORK OR BE WALLOPED.
MoKKlmeks ill ill-Miurl Astonisht-il by a Sen Sort of
Vigilance Committee.
Buffalo, Mo., July 8.—The Bald Knob-
bers of Taney county have a counterpart
here in an organization not named as yet,
but having for its object the promotion of
Industry. Many of the older settlers of the
country enjoy hunting and fishing more
than they do work, ana to put a stop to the
shiftless methods of these worthies the
more active citizens have organized a mys
terious band which deals summarily with
all offenders. Owing to the operations of
this society of late something like a panic
prevails among the fishermen and hunters,
and many of them are thinking seriously
of emigrating or going to work.
Tom Cook, living a few miles south of
here, has a farm of about eighty acres with
not more than ten acres under any sort of
cultivation. Where an attempt has been
made to put in a crop there are more weeds
than grain, but this has not worried Toni
any. He has an old house that looks as
though it might fall to pieces almost any
night, with an alleged barn which is gradu
ally disappearing by way of the kitchen
stove. When there is no wood handy the
cooks knock a board otf the barn, and the
result is that not much besides the frame
and roof of that structure remains. The
roof would probably have gone first if it-
had not been difficult to reach it. On the
whole farm there are no fences and the
few domestic animals, not counting tile
dog's, look desolate and oppressed. Tom
has three sons and a daughter, the boys
being lank and lazy like their father, and
the girl being fat and lazy like licr mother.
They never work if they can help it. Tom
and the boys go fishing, and the girl and
her mother sit around and wonder when
they arc coining home.
The other nignt the vigilance committee
called and notified Tom that if he and the
boys didn’t get to work they would have j
trouble. This hurt the old man’s feelings. [
He always had worked, and so hail his j
whole family, and, besides all that, he’d j
been here since ’48, and lie “allowed that j
he had never been jacketed yet, and he (
didn’t intend to be now.” 11 is visitors in
formed him that a new era had dawned
and that there had got to lie more work '
and less fishing for the good
of the whole country. Ii lie j
went to work, all right: but if lie
did not, bf would lie sorry. The. next day [
Toni went fishing as usual, and the second |
night aider that, as he was returning home •
from another fishing excursion, he was |
seized by a mob and unmercifully whipped.
That paralyzed the whole community, j
Old settlers who are wearing the same
clothes now that they wore thirty years
ago, and who have yawned and stretched
so much that they are loose in the joints,
spruced up a little and came to town to
talk the matter over. All day long they sat
on the dry goods boxes and salt barrels
whittling and chewing tobacco, and at
thsy returned home no wieer than
when they came. That night another old
barnacle wae whipped, and a dozen other*
i-roeived-warnings. Several who were not
anxious to have a row actually went to
work. One man brought a load of hay to
. ought a lot
town and sold it, the flrst jime
' ) do such
4 .v, ...O 111 wu no n»a
ever been known to do such a thing, and
another appeared with a few quarts of
trult, which he was particular to explain it
was mighty hard work to pick. But Mie
whippings and warnings wont on, until
‘V'MJy “shooting ooourred, and now the
snerifT has organized a posse to hunt
down the too enterprising night righters,
who, it Is suspected, are some of the lead
ing citizens or the county. Every old fish
erman is awaiting the next turn of affairs
with breathless anxiety, and in the mean
time work is being done on some places
that have been strangers to it for forty
years.
Still the Good Work Goes On!
MAIMED CONFEDERATE SOLDIERS.
Review of the 1,1st Pnhllshed hj the Kxeentlv*
Department.
Atlanta Constitution.
Captain W. H. Harrison, clerk of the ex
ecutive department, has completed and
had published a list of all maimed confed
erate soldiers who have been paid allow
ances by the state since November 10th,
1883. - ’
Among other valuable information pub
lished with the list, it is announced that
the third payment will be due after the
2bth of September next. Only those that
have lost an arm or a log are entitled to
allowances. If a man has lost only a part j
of his hand, he is not entitled to the allow
ance for the loss of an “ arm below the el
bow.” If only a part of a foot has been
amputated, the applicant is not entitled to
the sum allowed for a “ log amputated lie-
low the knee.”
The law at present makes no provision
for any kind of a disability, except for an
arm or leg. Payments are made to ex-con
federates who enlisted from other states,
provided they were living in Georgia in
September, 1879, and have since resided
therein. All Georgia soldiers now living in
this state are entitled to these allowances,
although they may have resided elsewhere
at the date of the passage of the original
879). If they are now
orgia, they are ben-
ot < ~
act (September, 1:
bona fide citizens of
efleiaries. Under the act of 1884, any ex
confederate who has had an arm or leg
amputated since the war, on account
of old wounds received during the war,
is entitled to an allowance once in
every three yenre, from December
24, 1884, the date of the passage of
the act. Under the act of October 15, 1886,
‘ disabled confederate soldiers who have
lost a limb or limbs, and who failed to
draw for any year or years the amounts of
money to which they have been entitfed
under the several acts passed in their favor
may make application now.” and upon
filing with the governor proper proof will
be paid the allowances not heretofore
drawn.
The total number on the list is 853. Ev
ery letter in the alphabet is represented.
There are but nineteen Smiths, only four
of whom are John Smiths.
