On the first day of January a nrgro

Persons claiming lo |m*eM the name,
and even greater, powers than Mis*Luis
Hurst are appearing in avvirsl counties
of the State, and marvellous accounts
are given of their performances. The
Union aud Recorder tell* of a recent
public entertainment given -by Mrs.
Dixie Haygood, of Milledgovil!*, at
wbieb feats, far surpassing anvtliiug ao
(•omplishad by Mis* Hurst, were per
formed. Umbrellas were torn to p eees
by her touok, aud a chair, with light
hundred pound* weight in it, was lifted
from the floor without the slightest t ier
f Uon. Mrs. Haygotxl weighs only uiuc
tj -lour pound*.

cot down after ho h and become nucoti
seivns. The doctors took him in eherge
and resuscitated him after eight hours of

ayp- ar that the stories often In srd of the
realieatiou of criuiiusls to life after being

altogether imptobable.

THE PIONEER PAPER ACIIJhfi.
We oopy the following from the Spar
ta Tshmaelite for the purpose of givi’g
it oar most unqualified endorsement.
The JocitMAn, since it* first issue—four
teen years ago—has been a constant pat
ron of the Pioneer Manufacturing Com
pany, and doe. not hesitate to avert
that all of I lie hiroiae** dealings of that
establishment have been characterized,
by the utmost fairness, liberality and the
most scrupulous honesty. We meet
heartily echo our neighbor’s commenda
tions id Mr. Griffith :
“The Ishmaelita has been a regular
I pntro> of the above named mills for the
past six yearn, anil will continue to lie so \
long as we have anything to do with tha !
paper, ami the mill ia under its present
management. It is a waste of time and
breath for other paper men to drum na
while W. I>. Grdlitli ia Secretary and
Treasurer of the old Pioneer. To our
brethren of the press who would like to
tind one of the cleverest paper men un
der the aim to deal with, we would say
send vonr order* to W. D. Griffith, Pa
per, Clarke county, Go., and, our word
for it, you will like him.”
