POLITICS IN COWBTA.
The Congressional and Legislative
Races Growing Interesting.
Newnan, Ga., May 34.—The contest for
congress in the Fourth promises to be a
very lively and exciting one. Hon. W. Y.
Atkinson of this city is spoken of very
highly and would give his opponents a
lively race, as he has always been a true
friend to the farmers, and especially to the
alliance. Coweta would go solidly for him,
as he has represented this county in the last
two consecutive terms of the legislature.
It will be remembered that he was the
originator of the girls’ industrial school bill,
and enjoys the honor of having been suc
cessful in all of his movements in the
legislative halls. Mr. Atkinson was
formerly of Meriwether county, and as that
county is in the Fourth it' will also be
strongly in favor of him. Mr. Grime-, our
present representative, will also be in the
race, together with Hon. Henry R. Harris
of Meriwether and Judge Samuel W.
Hams of Carroll, the pre.eut judge of the
Coweta circuit.
NEW CANDIDATES LOOMING UP.
It is also understood that several new can
didates for the legislature are looming to
the front. Prof. Charles T. Moses of Turin,
once a prominent school teacher and now a
very successful scientific farmer, will be in
the race. Mr.,Moses also enjoys the happy
distinction of knowing that, he has hundreds
of old sch 1 .lars who will gladly give him
their support.
Luther F. Farmer, a promising young
attorney of this city, is also spoken of in
connection with le islative honors. A
farmer and a lawyer always represent
Coweta, and if this be the case this time
■no two candidates would make a stronger
race.
Hon. James B. Hunnicutt of this county
ts making a good canvass for commissioner
of agriculture. Mr. Hunnicutt is a scientific
and bu iness man, ad can very eaily gam
the confidence of the voters of Georgia after
listening to one of bis magnificent cam
paign speeches.

TORN BY AN AMERICAN LION.
A Thrilling Story of Hair-Breadth Es
cape in the Mountains of Idaho.
The Natural History club of Cballis,
Idaho, has been piesented with a finely
mounted specimen of a puma, or American
lion, by Christopher Davidson, who killed
the animal recently in the Salmon river
mountains, which lie some miles east of that
I place. According to a Chaliis correspond
ent of the Globe-Democrat it is a magniri
\ cent male, measuriug nearly two aud one
half feet from the muzzle to tbe tip of the
long, cat-like tail, with the jaws drawn
back over the keen, sharp teeth in a snarl
that still 1 reathes and fiance to its foes.
David-on, who is the owner of one of the
largest stock raising ranches of this vicinity,
relating tbe adventure in which fie killed
the puma, says:
“My flue blooded mare, Jennie McNeil,
broke out fr. m her stable one night last
mouth with her 6-weeks-old colt, and by
ni. rni ng. had v andered beyond the outer
mo-t limits of my place, which I have not
yet completely fenced in. On discovering
her absence I started my help at once iu
every direction to Bearch for her, and my
self went on horseback toward the moun
tains. Obeying an instinct of habit more
tha 1 anything else, 1 took my gun and
revolver with me, though I anticipated no
occasion for their use. But 1 had Dot gone
far when I saw something that made me
very gi ateful to the chance that had sent
me off armed.
"Tnere had been a light, slow rain late
the afternoon before and the ground was
still moist, though not muddy from it, and
on the spots where the grass was scant I
could see the prints of the mare’s and colt’s
hoofs, and after awhile I noticed the faint
marks of some soft-padded foot close upon
the others. I felt certain that this meant
my horses had on their track an enormous
wildcat or else a puma, though these latter
animals have been rarely seen of late years,
and I hurried on, for I knew these moun
tain lions are particularly partial to the
tender flesh of a colt and make very little
ado about attacking a grown horse when
hungry or enraged.
PUMA AND HORSE FIGHT.
“The tracks were still so fresh that I
hoped to catch up with the mare and her
colt before their stealthy foe attacked
them, and by riding hard 1 came in sight.of
them just as they reached Salt Spring Val
ley. The mare was trotting along ith her
head in tbe air and ears thrown forward,
making an uneasy sort of noise, and snuff
ing as if she scented tbe hiding puma, aud
every now and then she’d stou to wait for
tbe colt, that came limping after her as if it
was fa. ged out and could not keep up. I
saw nothing of the lion on entering the val
ley, hut In a few moments a movement in
the tall grass, just iu front of a clump of
trees, and about twenty feet to the left of
the colt, caused me to suspect that he was
there.
“So,waiting until I caught a glimpse of a
tawny head and a slowlv waving tail, I
Tired straight at the animal. I missed him,
however, for his slender but powerful body
was already in the air, springing toward
the colt, which, borne down by the shock,
fell, with the puma on his back. The poor
creature gave a piteous cry, and the mare
began to revolve about the two like a mad
creature, evidently fearing to come to the
coil’s assistance with her heels for fear of
striking it also.
“I jumped from my horse, and, ruminz
up to the spot, drew my revolver' and fired
close to the ear of the puma, but as I pulled
the trigger it turned its head, snarling
viciously, though without releasing its hold
on the colt, and the bullet failed to inflict a
wound in the vital part, but, glancing, tore
a long gash along the neck. At this tne lion
sprang up, and with a yell of fury threw it
self upon me with gaping mouth aud curved
claws. I fired again and hit the creature
somewhere in the body with no apparent
effect, though the blood flowed freely, for
he leized my arm in his teeth, and, but for
the thick buckskin jacket I wore, would
have beyond doubt torn my arm to pieces.
Even as it was, the flesh was fearfullv
gripped and bruised; but, fortunately, it
was my left arm, so with my right hand I
caught tbe | uma by the throat, and, exert
ing all my strength, I succeeded in choking
him so that he relaxed his hold on my arm.
“I had dropped my pistol in order to grasp
the animal’s throat, but picked it ud now,
and with the butt struck the still gasping
puma a blow as powerful as I was capable
of just between the eyes. It stunned him,
and for a moment he lay so motionless that
I thought he was dead, and overjoyed not
only at coming off with my life in such a
desperate fight, but in the possession of so
splendid a trophy of my prowess, I incau
tiously bent over the prostrate body to ex
amine it. But I had congratulated myself
on a victory not yet won, for,taking me off
guard, the puma recoveriug itself in a mo
ment, as it were, made a spring at me, and
completely upsetting my equilibrium by the
suddenness of the attack, we fell heavily to
the earth.
“The lion, crushing my right arm with
its weight, ana the left so stiff and bruised
that I cculd scarcely lift it, I was at the
mercy of ray desperate foe, who buried his
great head under my throat. I gave my
self up for lost, as the hot breath of he
dripping mouth touched me, and waited for
tbe sharp, cruel teeth to tear my flesh,
when the bloodshot eyes grew g assy, tbe
long, sleek body quive ed convulsively all
along its lengih, and, with a low whimper,
the puma rolled off me dead. The pistol
shot in his body, which I had deemed with
out effect, had done its w ork at last, and
though the desperation of the lion had
enabled him to fight death off for awhile, it
had conquered just in time to save me.
“I had to go home for a wagon to take my
celt back, for both his forelegs were broken
and Its back torn considerably by tne puma’s
claws, though it ultimately recovered. The
liou went home in tbe same wagon, much to
the alarm of bth tbe colt aud mare. I
could not help feeling amused at the mare,
though, for she seemed to understand the
trouble and danger her escapade had caused
and her endeavors to show me her repent
ance and desire for reconciliation evinced an
intelligence perfectly remarkable.”

TO DO GOOD WORK!
Waste and confusion are strangers in our
office, and the slovenly and incompetent can
find no bold therein. Wnen a thorough ma
chinist buys a kit of tools he selects them of the
finest steel, even though he pays more for them,
and so it is with us; we have the best money
can buy. Ooing it blind is not the road to
riches. In merit we will be rich, as well as
money. TOWNSEND has a head on him
which is not bandaged with old ideas. He would
be out of place in a junk shop. He is a hustler.

Such are the sad lamentations of many a too
“High Flown" printer striving for the unattain
able. They stumble in their blindness over tne
unsean obstacles We’re not like Mrs. James
Brown Potter, “here to raise the standard of
the profession,’’but candidly confess our ob
ject is the “filthy lucre’’ of Shakespearian days,
the “cart wheel” of to-day, the “coupon bonds’’
of the future. We’re in “business for business”
and want your business in the Job Printing line.

ARGUMENTS are those that convince. Wg
never attempt the dictatorial. Our wares
possess such intrinsic worth that people do the
talking for us For instance, “The Southern
Girl’ has no equal oa eart.tj This applies to
th® sex; the same, however, applies to our
Cook Stove of this name, and likewise our “Iroa
King, both marvels of th© improved inventive
age.

cause others claim the biggest) the largest

News
From
.A.broad.
IT'S the old saying. “One must go from home
to learn the news about onesTf.’
People who recently returned to the city paid
my immense establishment an especial visit be
cause they had heard so much about its magni
tude from strangers.
Savannabiansnave no idea of the enormous
volume of trade done through my depot, in a
fortnight. My shipments reach through the
entire Southern States and I am now looked
upon as a “public enterprise” of Savannah. It
tak s PLUCK and ENERGY to build such a
REPUTATION. Business brought me capita).
Now I possess ALL. and people know where to
strike ROCK BOTTOM in BUILDERS' SUP
