MARIETTA GA.,
TRURSDAY MORNING AUG. 1. 1889,
Cordele one of Georgia’s newest
cities, situated in Dooly county, is a
city with a population of 3,000 in
habitants. A yearend a hall ago
the site on which it is built was a
corn field. It has one of the finest
banking houses in Georgia, and
Maj. Hanson of Macon, and his
company are building a Cotton Fac
tory with a stock company of $130,-
000. It has also a Security Compa
ny with a capital of $lOO,OOO. What
did all this? Railroads.
Sam Wan Kkg, the richest China
man in New England, is worth about
$lOO,OOO. e wants to go to China
with his family for two years,
and has been hanging about the
Boston custom house of late trying
to prove to the authorities that he
is not a laborer. Ie fears that he
will not be allowed to land when
he returns to this country from
China. He is an importer and
wholesale dealer in Chinese staples,
and has made a fortune since he
came to America. |
Mr. Thomas A. Edison keeps
constantly at work, and now and
then he makes a new invention.
His latest is an electric psocess for
separating iron ore from the earth
and rock, and it is claimed that it
will revolutionize iron ore mining.
The present method of separating
the ore from its surroundings is
very expensive and tedious. Mr.
Edison is now in Pennsylvania with
a party of capitalists to whom he
proposes to demonstrate the practi
cal utility of his invention.

Boy—Say, ma says you are going to
take sister off.
Engaged Youth (soon to be mar
ried)—Yes, in a few weeks she’s
going to my home, and my ma and
pa will be her ma and pa. See?
“I see. Then she’ll be your
sister, same as mine. Say, don’t
you do anything she doesn’t like,
for if you do she’ll bang you around
awful when your ma and pa ain’t

Rev. W. B. Bachman, a leading
Presbyterian minister of Knoxville,
states that on the top of White
mountain, in Western North Caro
lina, are three trees of the cachoin
species growing close together and
each being about a foot in diameter
and about 15 feet in height. The
top of the trees is about twenty feet
in diameter and perfectly flat, be
ing so completely interwoven that a
number of persoms can walk on
themn with ease. Twelve persons
can lie down on the top of these
trees without falling. Indeed, so
close are these tops that holes had
to be cut in the middle for persons
10 get on top.
Two million two hundred and
eixteen thousand dollars is the
amount of Atlanta’s bonded debt.
And the limit allowed by the char
ter is not reached by about $300,-
000. Another issue of $125,000
will be made next January. This
iBto redeem bonds falling due at
that ,time. This issue of $125,000
has already been placed at 4 per
cent. The bonds found a ready
market, and the city’s credit is con
sidered so good that no trouble at
all was had in placing them'at a
lower rate than any previous issue.
The last issue was floated at 4} per
cent, which was considered very
good at the time.

Liniment,
HEROISM AT HOME.
How useless our lives seem to us
sometimes! How we long for an op
portunity to perform some great ac
tion! We become tired of the routine
of home life, and imagine we woula
be far happier in other scenes. We
think of life’s great battlefield and
wish to be heroes. We think of the
good we might do if our lot had
been cast amid other scenes. We
forgot that the world bestows no‘
such titles as noble as father, moth- ;
er, sister or brother, In the scared
precincts of home we have many
chances of heroism. The daily acts
of self denial for the good of a love
ed one, the gentle word of soothing
for another’s trouble, the care for
the sick, may all seem as nothing,
yet who can tell the good they may
save accomplished? Our slightest
‘word may have an influence over
another for good or evil. We are
daily sowing the seed which will
‘briag forth some sort ot harvest.
‘Well will it be for us if the harvest
will be one we will he proud to
garner. If some one in that dear
home can look back in after years,
anud as he tenderly utters our name,
say: “Her words and example pre
pared me lor a life of usefulness, to
her I owe my present happiness,”’
we may all say: “I have not lived
in vain.”
KISS THE FOOL AND LET HIM GO
HOME.
The story goes that a certain so
¢iety young man, noted for his
handsome bearing and winning
voice, accompanied a young lady to
her home, and as all true lovers do,
lingered yet a little while at the
gate to have a lover’s tete-a-tete
with his fair companion. The night
was beautiful, no one near to in
trude, and above all Le loved! Why
shouldn’t she kiss him? With true
maidenly modesty she refused. He
implored. She still withheld him
that which would fill his cup of hap
piness. The request repeated sev
eral times and so engrossed did the
young man become in wooing, he
failed to notice the approach of the
parental step. The old gentleman
who had been there himself and did
not care to intrude upon the happi
ness of the young couple quietly
stepping behind a convenient rose
‘bush, waited, thinking the young
man would soon leave. ln this he
was mistaken. The lover tarried
over the request, until the patience
of the old gentleman was exhausted.
A voice the couple well knew,
aroused them from their happiness,
in a tone of impatient anger, by
saying: “Daughter, kiss the d——n
fool and let him go home!” It is
‘reported that the young man only
i hit the ground in high places in his
endeavor to comply with the old
gentleman's request.
About two weeks ago, frequent
earthquake shocks frightened the
people of Susanville, Lassen county,
in the heart of the Siera Nevadas.
Some of the shocks were severe
enough toshake dishes from the wall,
but no lives were lost. Near by are
the Lassen Buttes, extinct volcanoes,
which showed signs of renewing ac
tivity that has not been observed for
fifty years. In some places hot
springs boiled up, in others geysers
of mud were formed, and in other
streams dried up, or the water be
come milky. A report has reached
Chico, Cal., that a heavier shock
than usual was telt there last week.
It knocked down chimneys, and dried
up aswamp two miles wide. From
Mono country, great volcanic activ
ity in cones south of Mono lake is
reported. The ground is said to
tremble constantly, and great blocks
of obsidon and pumice stone are
shaken.
Several large parties of American
school teachers, numbering nearly
a thousand women and men, are in
Europe this summer enjoying their
vacation. They are from all parts
of the Union, south as well as north
and west. The good wishes of mil-
Lions of their fellow countrymen,
large and small, go with them.
They have carned their vacation
(bravely and well, and the millions
'hope they will be back to school full
ot fresh, electric life and new ideas.
'For the hope of the country rests
s;with the teachers. And we are
‘glad America pays her teachers
| well enough for them to take this
little outing over sea.
CIRCUMSTANTIAL EVIDENCE. |
Bergt. Warren Fox in Si. Lous Globe-!
Democrat. |
Speaking of circumstantial evi-i
dence recalls to my mindan incident |
that came undgr my observation]
while I was in charge of the Clhest- l
nut street police station. An En
glish nobleman who was in this
country on a lark visited a house
kept by a well-known sporting wo
man, and spent a few hoursin the
resort drinking. After he had
walked up the street a few blocks
from the house he missed his roll
of money, and not being able to find
it, concluded he had been robbed.
He went back to the house imme
diately and accused the woman of
the theft. She denied it, and on
his complaint a police officer arrest
‘ed her. When they came into the
station he told me the story asabove.
Then I heard her story, and was im
pressed with the beliel that she was
innocent. He told me that the
amount was s3so—two 850 bills and
the balance in tens—and also de
scribed the peculiar way he had
rolled it. He was so confident that
she had robbed him that I conclud
ed to hold her. I incidentally re
marked, as she was going back to
the cell: “Have you any money
about you?” “I have,” she replied,
and placed a roll of bills on the
ledger. 1 examined it and_found
$350-—two $5O bills and the balance
in tens—identically the same amount ‘
and the same denominations as he |
had lost. Ie swore positively that
it was his money, and wanted to
take it, but I retused to give it up.
The woman was locked up and the 1
nobleman went away, after the us
ual instruction to be at the Four
courts in the morning and swear
out a warrant. I could not believe
but that she was innocent. About
two hours after she was locked up
the nobleman returned, out of
breath, and stated that he had found
his money. He had put itin the
inside pocket ot his vest, something
he had never did before, and never
thought tolook for it there until he
was undressing to retire, when it
fell to the floor. The woman was
released and her money returned,
and the nobleman escorted her,
arm and arm, to her resort.
A justice of Logan township, Blair
county, Pa., has a perplexing case.
A blacksmith built a wagon for an
other citizen, painting it brown, and
refusing to change the color to green.
In the night the citizen entered the
shop and gave the vehicle a coat of
paris green. Early next morning
the blacksmith’s cow, spying the
verdurous tint, licked it off and
died. The blacksmith now wants
damages for his cow. |
