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. i it Tue WEerpi®G PRrRELUDE.—LittIe 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 looking.™ 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. R — The mott popular liniment, is the old reliable, Dr. J. I}) McLean's Voleanic Qil 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. | ottt i Persons advanced in years feel younger and stronger, as well as freer from the in firmities of age, by taking Dr. J. H. Mc- Lean's Sarsaparilla.
