Clerk of the Superior Court Ramey recorded in his office at Clayton, Ga., a mortgage for $1,000,000 in favor of the Standard Trust Company, of New York, against the Tallulah Falls Railway Company.

Luther Johnston Falls From Trestle. Last week while the Lawrence ville Branch Railroad men were repairing Yellow river trestle, Luther Johnston, who was standing on the end of one of the large pieces of timber, in some way lost his balance and fell about forty feet into the river below. The others present expected that the fall would kill him, but to the sur prise of all, he immediately jumped .up and stood on his feet again. On examination, it was found that he had received no serious hurt. He was confined to his room for a few days, but is at work again. —News-Herala. From Dahlonega Nugget. The Gainesville Eagles didn’t reach Dahlonega until Saturday. We suppose that Bro. Craig was riding on the street car and forgot to send them out. Just think.

Samuel Rider, charged with steal ing his mother’s cow in this county, carrying and selling her in Gaines ville, more than six months ago, was acquitted of the charge in Hall Superior court last week. His mother lost the cow, the animal was seen in this man’s possession and it was also sold in Gainesville, but there was a missing link somewhere that couldn’t be found by the jury. It being too rainy for our old friend Mr. N. C. Tank to cut canals last Monday,’ he came to Dahlonega for the first time in sev eral months. The many years of hard struggling in the civil war is beginning to show rapidly on Bony in his declining years. This old gentleman has many friends in Dahlonega who are always glad to meet him. He has been a life long friend tt> the writer and we would be glad to have visits from him more frequent. In Neighboring Towns. The Buford Plowboy has taken out, hung up the hames and traces, and quit the journalistic furrows. Mr. W. W.

Toccoa is to have another oil mill. A First National Bank has also been established at Toccoa. The Winder Banking Co. has been made a state depository. Dr. W. P. DeLapperriere, of Hoschton,, has just closed out his cotton. The lot contained over 1,600 bales and amounted to $61,596.68. Smith & Carithers, bankers, paid for the cotton and it one of the largest transactions that has passed through their bank this season. Dr. DeLaperriere made a handsome profit on this lot of cot ton. The well known firm of Sanders, Swan & Co. bought it. Went up Chimney. Gibson and Ray, who were in the county jail awaiting trial for lar ceny, made their escape last Sunday night. They went out through the chimney and suspended a rope made of cotton checks. They noiselessly tore the partition between the fire places and tied the rope around the chimney and descended to the porch on the front side of the jail and jumped to the ground, leaving bare foot tracks and plenty of soot. Sheriff Carver is on the lookout for them. He left the next morning but up to now he has heard nothing of them.—Clayton Tribune.

THE GAINESVILLE EAGLE, FEBRUARY 5, 1903. Chestnut Street Church. As announced, Rev. J. C. Otwell preached at Chestnut Street Church last Sunday on the subject, “Moses’ Helpers.” The congregation was some larger than common, the house being very well filled with orderly and attentive people, and after the song service, which was very good, Mr. Otwell announced his subject and said, in part: “If I don’t talk to the unsaved sinners today it is because I want to talk to the saved sinners; and if I make a few caps today that fit you, just wear them without kick ing, for you know you can’t kick a cap off.” After talking of the leadership of Moses, he said: “Did you know that when the people prosper they claim all the honor for themselves, but when they are in adversity they blame the leaders? The same rule applies to the church members; If the church is in a backslidden condition they blame the preacher.” In closing he said, in part: “God says, in trumpet tones, to every member of this church, you must get into line in the santuary and prophecy? What is the mean ing of this? It is, you must be up and doing; get up of Sunday morn ings in time to get the dishes washed, the children spanked, and get out for Sunday school and to preaching. This is one way to prophecy.” Mr. Otwell is a live and character istic preacher and will interest you when you feel like going out to hear him. A welcome always to this church. J. The Presbyterian Church. The committee recently appointed by the Presbyterian congregation to consider the whole matter of buying a lot and building thereon a new church in our city, after mature deliberation decided: Ist, That it would be undesirable to build a new church with money borrowed and secured by mortgages or bonds on the church. 2nd, That we could not build at this time without using some borrowed money thus secured. 3rd, That for the foregoing reasons the building of a new church be indefinitely postponed. 4th, That it would be wise and proper for us to buy the lot at corner of Green street and Seminary Avenue and repair the house and use it as a Manse till we are able to build a new chureh; then move the Manse to rear of the lot front ing on Seminary Avenue and build the church where the house now stands. Gone to See the Widow. Luther Langford of Mauldin’s Mill, son of ’Squire Harrison Lang ford, left last Friday for Mertens, Texas, where he has an uncle resid ing. Luther will try his fortunes m the Lone Star State. He is energetic, bright, and a young man of integrity and promise. His friends here wish him well in his new home. Peter Duncan Forgot. The stranger whose mind was a blank, who had forgotten his name, his occupation, his home and his friends, held at police headquarters in Atlanta, began to awake last Friday as if from a dream and was persuaded to talk. His name is Peter Duncan, he says, a miner in the gold mines at Buford, and his wife and six chil dren live at Gainesville. Joe Bell, of 6 East 10th street Atlanta, is his father-in-law. This seems to be correct, for an officer went to the address given and Bell stated that he had a son-in-law named Peter Duncan who was a miner employed at Buford and with a wife and six children living in Gainesville.
