Miss Lula Burst, a young lady
of Collard S alley, Ga., haa bnan at
tracting much attention by exbibi
tious of Hiipernatiual power. She
viaited Home recently and aston
ialied tli* natives by her woader
ful power. Las', week she appear
ed by iuvitation in Derives opera
house in Atlanta. The Constitu
tion furnishes the following report
of her performance :
A carpet was pat down, the
stage waa sat with several chaira,
and when the curtain was rung
up Mr and Mrs. Hurst, Hiss
Hurst, and one or two relatives
and friends were »D the stage.
Miss Hurst looked well in a neat
1 black dress of silk velvet with a
geld necklas Her hair was per
mitted to bangabeut her sheul
ders and waa fastened by a pink
ribbon. Mr. Cliaalea T- Logar
mails a shott address t o the an
diene* in winch he outlined wbat
i Miss Hurst propeaed to do. He
| than callad on several gentleman
in the audience togo up on the
eiage. Colonel Geogre W. Adair
Mr Brock Backwith. Mr Nathan
Carr. Mr liurton Smith and twoor
ttiree otbsrs re*.<onded. It is use
less to atlempi to describe what
Mias Hurst did. It is sutticaut to
aav that from the first she sustain
ed herself and had i he cordial sym
pathy of her audience. A very
large man was given the chair te
hold. H# caught it firmly, throw
ing all his weight and strength in
tc the effort, she tossed him arout d
without apparent straining. Th e
srick was repeated with seveial
gentlemen and at each time she
came eut an easy victor and was
roundly applauded. An umbrel
la was given her to hold and was
com iletely twisted to pieces, show
ing the strange effect of her touch
Strong uien were given stieks to
hold and the audience roared ua
one afier another were forced to
si dumb t > her strange powe-.
The entertainment was closed by
Miss Lula dumping a gentleman
across the stage, the curtain going
down amid a storm of applause.
A Constitution man talked with
various members of the audience
last night, and it was evident
from th* comments that Mi:H
Hurat had mad* a favorable ini
prevaion. There were a few wl *
held that she performed her ferns
by main strength, While there ia
a limit to her aiyierious powers,
no one who watehea her closely
will say that she haa only iuum'ls
at her command. No fifteeu ye r
old girl could so completely over
come a man’s strength aa she ,fo«s
and without the least effort, She -
failed on one thing »h« ** t ““*‘' ’
, , , Misax the cords
jpdi w“• *
that bound a chair to the floor.
The cards however, were loose
enough for the chair *o play, ai d
thus her power was lost. «She
will be with the minstrels at the
matinee and >o eight.
The matrimonial desires ot Mils
Emma Butler, of Klberlon. bus
led to stange coinplictions. The
la ly has for asveial years been
quite popular, and counted among
her admirers Me reus Moon and
D. G. Seymour. Lpon both she
smiled sweetly, and te each in
*.til'll she pledged her bund, and
each looked with jealously upon
the other's visits,, not knowing the
real 'ruth. At Inst, to end sun
pence. each 'over pressed that the
day bejjnamed for mip i Is, and
to ea li the same day, but oue
hour’s difference in time, wasgiveu
for the pledge which was to make
each a prond liushaml. Lissuses
were procured, and as Mr Moon's
appointment was fur the earlier
hour the coup’* west married.
While relatives and friends
ware congratuting Mr, and
Mrs, Moon. upon their
unptsila, the second bridal
party, consisting of Mr. S*y
mour and bia at endants, drive
up, ar.d were auipristd to find
that the previous marriage had
already made his visit fruitless.
The affair created quite a sen
sation, and only good management
kept the male prncipals apart.

An acre of land contains 43,560
square feet. Tocover this with
manure two inches deep, aa far
mars sometimes tall of manuring
thair fields, would require a pile
of manure more tbaa thirty feet

nearly fifty-seven corda per acre;
very few farmers evey put or
that amount. The common ox

bushels of potatoes needs to be
