be was figuratively paralyzed.
Jack Rivers, a young farmer living near
Arlington, was suddenly killed about four
miles east of there Friday. He had been to

sisters who have been cared for by him since

sisters and brothers was truly commend
able.

Every one almost who has heard of .Judge
John D. Branson, of Kingston, knows that
be has been afflicted with a terrible cancer
on his lip and chin for nearly three years.
Up to last June he was able to go about and
attend to his business affairs, but since then

the past two montus to his bed. The phy
sician, his family and friends had given him

chin and the roots of his teeth can be plain
ly seen. But since last week Judge Bran
son has been rapidly getting well. A phy
sician has been found who makesasjieciaity
of cancer treatment and uuder his ministra
tions the cancer is last disappearing. Dr.
Waid, of North Carolina, is the name of
tiie physician, and ho says that there is not
a shadow of a doubt, but that on next Sun
day when he applies the cancer plaster the
cancer will come out root and branch.
Rome Tribune: A certain gay and giddy
young society man of Rome went out riding
not long since with a fair young equestri
enne of a leading avenue. In course of
conversation they touched upon the leading
subject of the dnv—the Anarchists. He
mentioned to his fair companion, in a care
less sort of way, that he hud been North
at school and had heard and read of a
family bv the name of Anarchist, who, for
some crime, he did not know what, were
being tried. He told her that there were
seven of them —the old man, Spies, Lingg,
Fischer, Schwab, Engel and Fichlen, and
that the old man and two of his sons were
hanged, two of the other brothers sent to
the penitentiary, and the last one commit
ted suicide in jail. He said it was bad
enough to hang the sons, but to hang a
preacher, and an old ma , at that, as they
did Farson Anarchist, was too horrible to
contemplate.
When AV. M. Lipscomb approached the
jail at Franklin Wednesday morning, to
his surprise, the thievish AA’oody was gone.
He had escaped through un opening in the
floor and passed out at the recently disabled
rear door of the lower cells, it was readily
discovered that lie had help from tie out
side. At the bottom of the outer door there
is an opening, burned only n few weeks ago
by other escaping prisoners. Into this too
assisting party crawled, pried open tho
wooden door and broke the lock of the grate
door. It was then quite an easy matter to
escape. The rocks in the opening in the
second floor recently made by l>it Bcott
were pushed away and the prisoner had
nothing to do but to squeeze out. Poinu
McKenley, the negro occupying the cell
with Woody, refused to leave the jail, and
told tln> tale of the esca|ie. AVoody was as
sisted by George Houston, himself a noto
rious juil bird.
Col. W. 3. Lowe, President of Peniten
tiary Company No. 2. was seen at Atlanta
Saturday, and asked about the fine imposed
by Gov. Gordon upon the lessees for \ :o ! s
tion of the lease contract. Cos). Lowe stated
that there had not been any meeting of the
lessees since the imposition of tun fine, and
he could not speak officially; but as far as
No. 2 was concerned, bo holding 87L* per
cent, of tiie stock of that company, he
thought he could speak. The fine, or his
part of it, would be paid, but the payment
would be made under written protest. Col.
Lowe declaring tout the testimony clearly
showed that ho was in no way responsible
for the whipping ut Bingham’s camp.
Bingham, the whipping boss, was an ap
pointee of Capt. T. J. James, whose part of
the tine would pot exceed S2OB, while Col.
Lowe, holding a much larger interest, and
in no way concerned in Bingham's appoint
ment, would have to pay about #2,800. Col.
Lowe thought that all the lessees would
prompt!' meet their part.
The Messenger, published at St. Andrews
Bay, Fla., tells of a project t hat is on fin*
to cut a can il from tho head waters of We
topo creek, a distance of eight mil#*, to Uiii
pola river. The Opelika Democrat not s
Ihe fact and says: Such an enterprise would
givo Columbus, Ga., a direct water commu
tion to this beautiful section of ike guif
coast, which would not only greatly in
crease her wholesale trade and open up a
large area of heavy pme and cypress tim
bered lands, but would also put her in di
rect communication with that PJvlen of
Florida,” St. Andrews Bay, who with her
three beautiful sheets of water extending n
distance of ninety miles, in and around the
western portion of Florida, would open up
to the world one of the greatest, summer
and winter resorts in the south. It is nat
ural to suppose that the scheme would lie
profitable to all concerned, mid Columbus
can il! ufford to let such im opportunity slip
as will enable her to control tae trade which
now goes to Pensacola.

THE MORNING NEWS: TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 22, 1887.
Avery ridiculous scene was enacted oi
Railroad avenue, at Jasper, a day or two
ago when Jeff Baker (colored), whoae mind
is certainly unbalanced, ran after a fast
going train, wildly gesticulating and talk
ing with his lips and seemingly the whole
centre of ids face protruding and contorted
to a most remarkable degree. Keeping up
the race for nearly a half mile, he finally
rushed off the track, and returned to town
after a while.
Orange City Times: It would notbeamiss
and would probably do good if the present
grand jury, now in session at Enterprise,
would investigate tho methods of the board
ing house keepers of Enterprise. The town
has no hotel open, and it does seem that
somo of these boarding houses have a
method that is systematic in swindling a
man out of 50c. for a so-called dinner that
a nice sandwich would lie far preferable. It
is not very tempting to sit liefore a dinner
consisting' mostly of toothpicks and water,
neither is it a very good advertisement for
Enterprise to keep the county seat.
The most expendvo buildings now in

bakery, $12,000; Misson’s double store, $lO,-
000, aggregating $5,862,000. The above fig
ures arc estimates from the best available
data, and cannot be far out of the way. A
large number of less expensive buildings are
now going up, and it is believed that the
grand total for the year will exceed in valua
tion over $4,000,000.
At Pensacola, fire was discovered in the
rear of the residence of L. M. Merritt, on
North Bazlin street Friday night at 11:45
o'clock. Though not literally reduced to
ashes, the house is a total wreck. It was a
frame structure, and tho flames had ad
vanced so far when discovered that it was
only with tlie greatest effort that Mr.
Merritt moved his several small children
and his old aunt, (08 years old) from the
second story. The fire is supposed to have
been the work of an incendiary, as there
had been no tiro in that portion of the houso
where the flames originated since 3 o'clock of
yesterday afternoon. Only a few articles
of furniture and clothing wero saved.
The house and furniture wero only partially
insured.

Clerk of the Court in the counties in which
they reside, certiticotes which nre to he re

This law requires that the dentists of the
State must have their certificates recorded
at the Clerk s office, in the counties in which
they practice, lice. 7, which is the date of
the expiration of the time fixed. Those
dentists who have not already done so
should npr.lv to the Secretary of the board,
I)r. Duff Post, of Tampa, for certificates,
and in order to save the deity they should
accompany their applications for the same
with the proof of the fact that they were
practicing in their respective counties at
the date of the passage of the bill.
Hernando A'etes: As Mr. Pleas Evans was
riding along in the pines near Capt.
Tucker's, lus horse shied, and, looking
around for the cause, )Ir. Evans discovered
a large hear sitting upon his haunches look
ing at him. It was but the work of a mo
ment to turn his horse’s head for his bear
ship, and the fun began. Mr. Evans suc
ceeded in cutting the 1 hear off from the ham
mock, but every time the horse would get
too close the bear would stop, and then it
was Mr. Evans’ turn to get out of the way.
By dint of hard driving the bear was forced
to take a tree on Mr. Davis’ place, and that
gentleman come down in answer to Mr.
Evans’ call and shot it. After being shot,

Orange City 'Times: Mias Lillie Mae
Taylor, daughter of Mr. J. Taylor, owner
of Deerfoot landing, committed suicide at
her father's residence Monday night of this

went up to her room, Mr. and Mrs. Taylor
retiring shortly afterward. The next morn

but found the door locked. He knocked,
but no answer came. He gained entrance
through a door lending from her r om to an
adjoining one, and found her lying cold on
tho bed, with the book she was reading

her rash act was done deliberately and
calmly. Nux vomica was found in the
room, and having taken the drug to end her
life, put her night clothes on, laid down on
her beii, and road until the poison she had
taken began to do its fatal work. In the
room was found a beautifully written note
addressed to her father, directing as to the
dress to put on her, and naming certain
jewelry and clothes of her's she desired to
be sent to schoolmates named in the note.
She began the note picturing the dark side
of life, with nothing bright for tho future.

How the Delsartisn Theory erf Develop
ment Beautifies Women.
What is the Delsartian theory .'
If ladies can secure cultivation of tiie
voice, so as to read and converse in sweetly
modulated yet strong and deep tones, and
by the same course of training acquire grace
of carriage and the development of chest and
lungs that insures health and adds to per
sonal chwrms, the methods employed are
worthy investigation.
So thought our reporter, who called upon
Mme. Gray, the noted teacher of Oratory
and Physical Culture, at one of our lending
hotels.
Ashe entered the room a lady tall but
well proportioned came with gracefui move
ment toward him. A well-shaped head,
crowned with a wealth of iron gray hair,
dark, brilliant eyes, beneath finely arcl-ist
brows, were noted as she approached. When
she spoke it was with a voice sweet and low,
yet with a wonderful compass.
“What is the secret of this pow'er of vocal
expression you seem to have?”
“Secret? there is no secret,” laughed 3lme.
Grav. “Time was when I had one of the
weakest and thinnest of voices. Any one
can accomplish what I have done. It is so
easy to acquire a full, resonant voice, that
will never tire or grow hoarse. Ail vocal
disabilities may bo overcome, hesitation,
stammering, stuttering, soon disappear
under proper training.”
“Does this training affect the physical
system?”
“Yes, it will develop the bust to almost
ideal perfection. Gentlemen will add four
or five inches chest measurement in as many
months.”
“it is desirable from a point of beauty,
thenf”
“Yes, ladies gain the roundness of waist,
tnper of arm and hand, and tho perfect
poise, ease and grace in movement, that add
so much to personal charms.”
“Health, I should think, would be bene
fited also?”
“Indeed it is. Lung and throat troubles
decrease, narrow chests and thin arms nro
dovekijied, and female weaknesses largely
overcome.”
“It seems to be a regular panacea?”
“No, lam sorry to suy that some organs
cannot be made good in this way after they
have been injured, as mine were by a so
journ near a Southern swamp. Before I
tried physical culture and Warners safe
cure I was a confirmed invalid. I was con
sumptive in early life, and it is only a few
years since I overcame a serious liver
trouble. I owe much to Warner's safe cure,
and Ido not hesitate to acknowledge it.”
“And the consumption tendency?”
“Disappeared after the use of this remedy,
and when I had learned how to breathe.
Not one in twenty breathe in such a way as
to fill the air oils, to expand the strong
nmsclas ut tiie base of the lungs, which
should do the labor of expelling air. Konce,
it' kidney discuss prevail . tho lungs affected
by tiie kidney-poisoned blood soon give
wav.”
“Is not your system the De’.sartian the
ory F’
“Yes, and I greatly rejoiced when this
grand teacher gave to tho world his ideas.
They correspond to those I had long taught,
for lam a pioneer in this work, nr.<l have
devoted life and energy to teaching the
world that women may gain vocal accom
plishments, health, grace and beauty all at
the same time by these methods of cultiva
tion.”
"You are yet teaching?”
“Yes, at the School of Oratory and Phys
ical culture at Syracuse, N. Y., a perma
nent institution, now in very successful
progress. ”
