Thursday, July 28, 1898.
Old maids are singular creatures.
Only fools rush in where old
maids fear to tread.
Whitfield county is in a fine
condition to have a county fair
this fall.
No paper has improved its edi
torial columns so much as the Co
lumbus Enquirer-Sun in the past
two months.
The concert of the Powers here
after will be inharmonious unless
the deep bass of Uncle Sam leads
the chorus.
Strange as it may seem, the
“Mosquito fleet” is the only part
of our navy that has failed to draw
blood.
It would have been a good idea
to require a two cent war revenue
8tamp put on all “endless chain”
letters.
Editor Tom Loyless, of the Ma
con Dearly News, being a slick
artist, should be appointed oil in
spector for his city. He deserves
it.
An exchange says “the inside
way of the wayside inn is what
makes it so popular.” Now if it
be in a prohibition town its the
sideway in of wayside inn that
makes it so popular.
She smole a ghastly smile,
And many a wink she wunk;
Ah! sure ’tis a pleasant thing
To think the thought she thunk.
James A. Hall has resigned his
position with the Atlanta Journal,
and will devote his entire time to
his paper, the Calhoun Times, and
his other business interests down
there.
Sir Isaac Newton said: “I do
not know what I may appear to the
world, but to myself I seem like
a child playing on the seashore,
and diverting myself in now and
then finding a smoother pebble or
a prettier shell than ordinary,
whilst the great ocean of truth lies
all undiscovered before me.”
The Citizen acknowledges the
receipt of a booklet entitled “Facts
About the South ” by Mr. R. H.
Edmonds, editor of the Baltimore
Manufacturers’ Record. It is
worth the perusal of every South
erner who has the interest of his
section at heart. It is bound to
do the South a great deal of good.
The Citizen desires to extend
congratulations to the Savannah
Press on its becoming an eight-
page, six-column paper. It was
always one of the most brilliantly
edited papers in the South, and is
now one of the best looking. It
has put in a big, new perfecting
press that will turn out from 8,000
to 10,000 papers an hour.
The fashion journals tell us
there is to be a revival of chignons
waterfalls and bustles. We con
fidently expect to see the Grecian
bend and Dolly Vardens follow—
all of which remind us of the ditty.
Oh! my, she looked so sweet
With her tilting little hoops
And her pretty little feet.
She’d a darling little bonnet
With a flower garden on it,
And my heart went in a flutter
As she jumped across the gutter,
Etc., etc.

Between Dalton and Spring
Place in the road which the tele
phone line follows, there are about
five or six holes to the mile that
will prove very annoying to far
mers coming to town this winter.
Just a small amount of judicious
work right now would fill these
holes forever and we will have a
reasonably fair country road. The
farmer deserves good roads and
The Citizen urgently requests the
county commissioners, especially
of this county, to look into the
matter.
Supreme Court Decisions.
Case 628.
Western & Atlantic Railroad Co.
v. Bailey. Before Judge Fite-
Whitfield superior court.
Little J.—If an engineer while
running a train saw a tresspasser
upon the track in time to stop be
fore striking him, but neverthe
less “ carelessly, negligently, reck
lessly and wrongfully allowed and
permitted ” the train to “ run at a
reckless and dangerous rate of
speed . . . without any bell
or whistle being sounded, or with
out any other danger or alarm sig
nal being given, or without any
effort to stop said train being
made,” and the tresspasser was
thus killed; and if his body was
hurled against an employee of the
railroad company, who was free
from fault or negligence and in
his proper place performing his
duties as a servant of the company,
and he was in this manner injured,
he had a cause of action against
the company.
Judgment affirmed. All con
curring.
Payne & Tye and R. J. & J.
McCamy, for plaintiff in error.
Marchbanks & Matthews and
B. Z. Herndon, contra.
Case 692.
Kerr vs. Crown Cotton Mills. Be
fore Judge Fite. Whitfield
superior court.
Cobb, J.—In a suit by an em
ployee against a master, a manu
facturing company for damages
resulting from personal injuries, it
was not error for the court to
grant a nonsuit, where the evi
dence did not show that the injury
was the result of defendant’s neg-
gence, but showed that if it was
the fault of any one, it was owing
to the negligence of a fellow-ser
vant of the plaintiff. 67 Georgia,
761; 68 Georgia, 839 ; 80 Geor
gia, 227.
Judgment affirmed. All con
curring.
J. M. Neel, S. P. Maddox and
O. N. Starr, for plaintiff in error.
I. E. Shumate and R. J. Mc
Camy, contra.

Bemis et al. v. Armour Packing
Co. et al. Before Judge Fite.
Whitfield superior court.
Lumpkin, P. J.—There is, in
equity cases, no constitutional
right of trial by judge in this
State : but such right, so far as it
exists, is statutory only.

OME persons say
it is natural for
them to lose flesh
during summer.
But losing flesh is losing
ground. Can you afford
to approach another win
ter in this weakened con
dition ?
Coughs and colds,weak
throats and lungs, come
quickest to those who are
thin in flesh, to those eas
ily chilled, to those who
have poor circulation and
feeble digestion.
Scott's
Emulsion
of cod liver oil with hypo-
phosphites does just as
much good in summer as
in winter. It makes flesh
in August as well as April.
You certainly need as
strong nerves in July as in
January. And your weak
throat and lungs should
be healed and strength
ened without delay.

tions, but not as an open’question.

Case 671.
Glaze v. Bogle et al., commission
ers, et al. Before Judge Fite.
Whitfield superior court.
Simmons, C. J.— 1. The board
of commissioners of roads and rev
enues of the county of Whitfield
has jurisdiction to hear and de
termine a petition by citizens in
terested in the matter to remove
obstructions from an alleged pub-
public highway in the county;
and where a party files objections
to the granting of such petition,
on the ground that such alleged
highway is not a public road, and
the issue thus made is decided
against her by the board, and the
decision is affirmed by the judg
ment of the superior court upon
certiorari proceedings instituted
by her, to which no exceptions are
filed, such issue as to her becomes
res adjudicata.
2. Where a petition for injunc
tion is brought against the board
of commissioners of a certain
county and the road commissioners
of a district of that county, such
petition cannot be amended by
making the county a party defend
ant and praying damages against
it.
3. Where a plea of res adjudi
cata sets up a judgment in former
suit between the same parties, and
a copy of the former record is an
nexed, the question cannot be de
termined upon the pleadings, but
there must be proof of the truth
of the plea, or admission of its
truth by the plaintiff.
Judgment reversed. All con
curring.
R. J. & J. McCamy, for plain
tiff.
Jones, Martin & Jones, for de
fendant.
Case 640.
Pegram v. Hancock. Before Judge
Fite. Whitfield superior court.
Little, J.— A homestead set
apart in 1875, upon the applica
tion of a married woman, unless
made under the third section of
the act of October 28, 1870, did
not constitute a valid exemption
of land belonging to the husband,
where it did not affirmatively ap
pear from the application that the
homestead was claimed out of his
property; nor could a . married
woman at that time, if not living
separate and apart from her hus
band, have a homestead of realty
or an exemption of personalty al
lowed out of her own property,
unless set apart under the section
of the act above mentioned.
2. In order to render valid un
der that section a homestead and
exemption set apart in the year
stated, upon the wife’s application,
it was essential ior it to show that
the property out of which the
homestead and exemption were
sought originally belonged to the
wife and had been relinquished,
assigned or set over to the hus
band, in order that he or she, as
the case might be, might apply for
and have the realty set apart as a
homestead and the personalty ex
empted.
3. Consequently where a mar-
AN OPEN LETTER
To MOTHERS.
ried woman, on the 6th day of
November, 1875, made an appli
cation for a homestead and ex
emption, reciting therein that “she
is the wife of (a named person),
who is the head of a family, that
she desires to avail herself of the
benefit of an act to provide for
setting apart a homestead and ex
emption of personalty—and petit
ioner shows that the schedule
hereto attached is a correct
schedule of her personal property,”
to which petition was attached a
schedule of personalty, and at the
end thereof a lot of land was
described without stating the own
ership thereof, a homestead and
exemption allowed upon this ap
plication were void.
Judgment reversed. All con
curring.
R. J. & J. McCamy and T. R.
R. Cobb, for plaintiff in error.
Jones, Martin & Jones, contra.
Case 663.
Manly Manufacturing Company v.
Western Union Telegraph Com
pany. Before Judge Fite.
Whitfield superior court.
Simmons, C. J.—When, on ac
count of an error in transmitting
a telegraphic message, the receiver
thereof is left in doubt as to its
meaning, the question whether or
not due diligence required him to
ask that the message be repeated
so as to remove its ambiguity, is
one of fact for the jury.
In the present case, the issue as
to this matter was fairly and cor
rectly submitted to the jury by
the judge in his charge ; the evi
dence was sufficient to sustain the
verdict, and there was no error in
over ruling the motion for new
trial.
Judgment^ affirmed. All con
curring.
R. J. & J. McCany, for plaintiff
in error.
McHenry & Nunnally, contra.
