I TO THE FARMERS OF DODGE
Col'Mt V.
We desire to say a few words es¬
pecially to the farmers of Dodge
county concerning their relation to
their county towns, in which, above
every other class, they are most in
j terested. Of this we think we can
convince them in a ve.y few words.
As farmers, of course you recog¬
nize it as jour duty to loo«t with
■ care and dilligcnce to that thing
; that will tend most toward giving
i protit to your Iftbojer., i d ling val,
1»J. and ligl,tailing np
your burdens. To fhiseml uothiug
is more essential than a good home
market. Now, you will agree that
the larger uud more prosperous
your county towns, the better the
home rnurket; the bett?r the home
market, the greater the demand;
the greater the demand the belter
the prices; the better the prices you
get for the products of your farms,
the more profitable becomes your
avocation. And just in proportion
as your increase are the profits of
your farming operations, just in
that proportion do you enhance the
value of your lauds.
The more you contribute towards
building np jour town, the moro
you increase its wealth, and, as the
rate of taxation is based upon the
aggregate wealth of a community,
measured by the demands of rev¬
enue, the greuter the wealth of the
community, proportiouably less
must be the rate of taxation. You
will thus perceive that by adding
to the wealth of your county towns,
you directly lighten the burdens of
your own taxation.
The furmers who have been here¬
tofore carrying their cctton to
Hawkinsville or some other mar¬
ket outside of the county for the
sakb of a few dollars, which, in¬
stead of being so much gained, is
indirectly, so much lost. When you
sell your cotton outside the limits
of tne county, in nine cases out of
ten you make your purchases iu the
same pluco you find your market,
thereby taking from the material
wea j t |j Q f »i, e coun ty, the profit the
merchant makes when lie sells you
your goods, and that made by the
cotton merchant who buys your
codon.
Every cent taken from your coun¬
ty town, iu that far, decreases its
wealth and business capital. ISo
you will see that after Subtracting
lhe increused expense in going to a
t
distant market, even though you
get one eighth of a cent more per
pound for your cotton, jou will
come out considerably the loser. As
a matter of business, we appeal to
the farmers of Dodge county to
njake Eastman or Chauncey j’oar
ujurket, tn so far us you can. Put
your shoulders to the wheel and
help to make them thriving, grows
ing, prosperous towns.

(OTTOIf STATEMENT.
From the Macon Telegraph of the 12tli.
1’rom the Chronicle’s cotton ar¬
ticle of October 8tli, the following
facts are gathered relative to the
movement of the crop for last week.
For the week ending this even¬
ing, October 8th, the total receipts
have reached 197,100 bales, ns
against 156,465 fur last week, 100,
?501 the previous week, arid 71,915
three weeks since, making the total
receipts since the 1st of j6*28,235 September,
1880, 586,491, against for
the same period of 1885, showing a
| decrease since September 1st, 1886
of 40,774 bales.
The receipts of all the interior
towns for this week have beeu 138-
121 bales. Last year the receipts of
the same week were 124,413 bales.
The old interior stocks have in¬
creased during the week 33,480
bales, and are to-night 22,465 more
than at the same period last year.
The receipts at the same towns have
been 13,129 more than for the same
week last year, and since Septem¬
ber 1st the receipts at all towns are
4,249more than for the same time
last year.
Among the interior towns, the re¬
ceipts at Macon for the week have
been 5,047 bales. Last year the re- 1
ceipts for the week were2,430 bales.
These figures show an increase for
the week of 2.017 hales.
The total receipts from the plan
tations since September 1885 1,1886. are
650,006 bales; in they were
701,170; in 1884, they were 681,852
bules cotton.
Although the receipts at the out
ports the past week were 197166
bales, the actual movements from
plantations was 536,087, the balance
going to increase the stocks at the
interior towns. Last year the re¬
ceipts from the 210,010 plantations for the
same week w ere bales, and
for 1874 they were 123,924 bales.
The imports into continental
ports this week have been 16,000.
'1 ho figures indicate a decrease in
the cotton in sight to-night of 17,1
121 bales, as compared with the
same date of 1885, a decrease 548 :
832 as compared with the coi res¬
ponding date of 1884, anti a de¬
crease of 462,799 as compared with
1883.
A Child Horn Drunk.
From the New York World
'The Infant son of a well known
citizen of Westfield, N. J., though but
just large enough to walk and ti.Ik,
appears and acts like an intoxicated
person. A local physician, in con¬
versation with a World repoi ter, gave
a history of the ci.se. It seems that
the parents were very exemplary peo¬
ple, and began their mutried life
without a cloud to dim their future.
No one in the town had heller habits
than this young ntisband, but some
months after his marriage be lapsed
a little from the path of strict tem¬
perance. the
One winter evening man went
from his home ostensibly ‘‘to watch
with a sick member of the village
lodge.” He really visited Sam Goss
chalk’s tavern. The trusting wife dis¬
covered at ‘J o’clock that her hus¬
band hao forgotten to purchase meat
for their breakfast and she went to
the market. A stormy wind was then
blowing and the snow was falling,
but ns she passed the hotel the faint
sound of a man’s voice in song, came
to her ears. She listened but a mo¬
ment. 'There was no mistaking her
husband's voice, anil scarcely know¬
ing what she din she looked in at the
barroom window anil saw her husil
band there in estate o'.' intoxication.
“miiiic time after this little episode,
a son was born to the parents--a fine,
healthy infant, bright and comely.—
Several months later, when the child
begin to walk and talk, they took him
to the physician. The little one could
Jiot walk without staggering in a
most unseemly aad ludicrous uiium
ner, and co: Id not lisp baby words
without a stranj e hieough and hesi¬
tation. The doctor, averring that if
lie had seen such symptoms in an
adult, he should have pronounced
them due to intoxication and nothn
ing else, with little difficulty obtain¬
ed an account of the unfortunatt ma¬
terial impression that provoked the
peculiar malady with which the child
f 9 affected. No line of medical treatn
ment eould be used in such a case,
™d reluctantly the physician gave
up the infant bov to endure hn very
strangely miserable life.
’j'De parents of this unfortunate
child are very sensitive about his
condition, and do not permit visits
[ f0,u dangers, it has, However
^ “T.^lKto

calization of the uialady if possible,

WHERE THE EARTHQUAKE EI\
GERM.
A Strange Story From a Ho nth Caroli
na Xeig-!)borhood--StiH Sitakon l |>.
CiiAUi-tsTON, (Act. 11.—There have
been no earthquake shocks tor sev
eral days in Charleston, and every
tiling is perfectly quiet. An intense
interest was aroused to-dav, by the
receipt of startling news horn a most
trustworthy source in “Ninety-Six.”
A letter dated there Oct. 5, sivs:
“The seat of earthquakes seems to
have been moved from Charleston to
near here, at a place known as Kin
nar Is, from two to three miles from
town. During the past week the
shocks have been much stronger and
came much more frequently. They
are confined mostly within the tri
angle formed by two public mads and
a stream of water, called here
creek,” the size of which would mea»«
lire two miles. Living within this rail
dins are three Mr. Kin mi rd s, M. O.
Hamilton, Frank Ellen berg, John
Smith, and J. II. Williamson. The
shocks were heavy enough one night
last week to i un these families out of
their houses. Mr. Williamson and
Mr. Ellenberg live nearer the creek
than tiie others and are more troub*
led, Mr. EUeoburg and his family
have not spent a night at home in a
week. Jlr. Williamson was picking
cotton in bis field on Tuesday after,
noon, and was upon his knees when
the shock came. He reported it so
great that it gave him pain all over
liis body. His wife was in the field
with him. She had just come from
ti e house to bring him some fresh¬
water As long as the shocks con¬
tinued in Charleston we thought it all
eatne from there. The people claim
to have been hearing the sounds for
eighteen months past.
“During the war, there lived an
old man in tlio same section by the
name of J ackey Walker, who did hear
and so repoi ted every time he came to
town, the reports of the siege guns
that were tired in and around Char¬
leston. Wc had no telegraph lineon
this road then, and only got news
once a day by train. He would tell
bow many shots were fired and the
paper the next day would always
tally with his number.”
BULGARIA’S HIGH SPIRIT.
Sophia, Oct. 11.-— In the city elec¬
tions for members ol the Great So*
branje, to elect a successor to Piinee
Alexander, all the government can¬
didates have been successful. M. Ka
ruvelotf, a pro-Russian, received but
fifty voles out of 1,500 cast iu his
district.
I'lie government attaches little im¬
portance to the action ot' M. Neklin
doff. the Russian agent here, in sus
pending dip’oraatic relations. A Ma¬
cedonian Voivode, who wu3 arrested
here, admitted that he was the leader
of a band of Macedonians organized
in Yeni Ragra and Eski Zegra, to act
against tl.e government.
A ROW WITH PEASANT*.
On Saturday a crowd hooted at a
number of peasants who were assem¬
bled in the garden of the Russian
consulate. The peasants replied by
throwing blocks ol woods and stones.
The crowd retaliated, whereupon the
Montenegrins ami Cavassers in tiie
garden of the consulate fired upon the
mob. Fifteen revolver bullets struck
the walls of the BiiiiJi and German
consulates. The peasants stibse
qiientlv did left the consulate. They said
thev not know for what purpose
llien* , presence was required, but had
been induced to come to Sophia by
six chiefs. Several pi rsons disguised
as wenilarnes have been arrested for
denouncing the government.
A MOL'EL M ILL.
That was a singular will, written
January 18,1867, admitted to probate
recently at Philadelphia, It is short,
covering but linlf a page of foolscap,
and is tn the hand writing of the de¬
scendant James Ju ge R. Ludlow,
one of tiie loremost jurists in Penn¬
sylvania. He wrote: “1 request my
executors to incur at my funeral no
expense not absolutely required. My
estate is small and mv wife anil ray
child!cr ought to have every dollar
for their support-. Lot no false pride
dictate ostentations display, for after
the soul lea vis the holy it matters
little what lac ones of that bod}’ so
that it is decently buried. God will
protect the dust, and on the resurrec¬
tion dav will gather all together and
reconstruct it according to his sov
crii rite.” He then devises his entire
estate to his wife, Henrietta E. Lud
low, and appoints her guardian of
their children and executrix. Both
the bar,and the bench have joined in
declaring that the Keystone Com¬
monwealth stitleied a great judicial
loss in the death of Judge Ludlow,
whom ihej- honored and loved.

Human Combustion.
Dickens has been much criticised
for his apparent acceptance ot the
hid of human spontaneous combus
tion, but Sir M. Guil lately testified j
to a surprising case before the Com
miuee of the Bouse of Lords ou In
tern iterance. A largo, bloated man,
who was suffering from difficulty ot
breathing and great distension of the
venous system, died at Guy Hospital.
At the post mortem the fohowing day
there was no sign of decomposition,
and the body was thought to be dis¬
tended with «as. When punctures
were made in'o I lie skin, said Sir
William, and i lighted match ap¬
plied, the gas winch escaped burned
with the ordinary flame of carburated
by ,r ogen.
I’eter Dickey, a saw mill foreman
In East Minneapolis, employe! a
I stranger to work in the mill, and ach
vaneed money for bis benefit. Among
other it ms charged was a 10 cent
I plug of tobacco, which excited the
deep indignation of the penileas etna
ployee. He swore out a warrant
against Mr. Dickey for selling tobacu
co without a stamp, and the aston
ished mill man was brought before
the United States Com missioner. Afs
ter a brief examination the case wan
dis nissed. Mr. Dickey’s attorney
charged $50 f,r his sen ices.
