farm in Fayette county, wuere there are no
postoffice drawers to tempt his ingenuity.

lengths and sizes.

heirs met in Covington a day or two ago to

all, of whom reside In the south.

has enough. Several weeks ago Mr. Adams
lot this famous ben on thirteen eggi, a reg
alar sitting, though an unlucky number.
Asher nest was in a convenient place for
the other fowls, she was constantly an
noyed by her unwelcome oompany, who
daily deposited a fresh egg to her already
weil-flilod nest. This famous hen would

Hawkinsvil’e Dispatch: Oliver Jelkssays
U is a hard matter to keep pace with the
Inventive genius of the averago Texan.
Last u eek Oliver and his brother Nat and
W. 8. Holliman offered Roush & Fitch $21,-
IkX) f tr their cotton compress here, os it is
paying 3.1 per cant, on' this amount, but
Lou* i & Fitch asked $28,000. Happening
to glance over the Atlanta Conetituti >n,
the Jelks brothers saw a notice of a i exhi
bition to be made of anew and simple oom
prwsi at Macho i, <>*. Nat boarded the
train and hoed out to Macbeu to see the
wonderful compress in operation. He re
turned astounded at the imm-ns- saving of
machinery in the compress business by tbe
invention of a Texan, which cost* only #5.0.
Oliver save #1 50 is os much as be cares to
invest lu the compress business now.
The c immittee appointed by the gran 1
jury to co-operate with the ordinary in the
matter of removing the court house of
Clarke county, held a meeting at Athens,
Tnursday. After an informal discussion of
the questions involved, it was conceded that
u..der tne restrictions imposed by the
grand jury as to increasing taxation, it is
impracticable to make any change in the
1 jcation of the court house unless the pre e:it
building can be sold to the city at
a !air price, for school purposes. An ex
change for the W ashingtoa street school
building is not considered desirable. A
committee of two was appointed to confer
with the city authorities as to sale of
present location, and if it appear* that tho
city can make the purchase, tne committee
will report to the chaii man, who will Cob
another meeting to consl ;er terms, eta
If the city is not in position to buy out
right, it is probable that the whole matter
is at an end.
Americus Times-Her order: A big eject
ment suit has been filed in Clerk Alien’s
office, involving some #25,0d0 worth of
propei ty. The land in questiou .a in the
northern part of tne city, and includes the
pumping station of tho water works, the
Americus Construction Company und a
numi.er of small tenement houses. The
plaintiffs are children of W. J. Bosworth,
de eased, just recently come of aire.
The property in question came into
the possession of the plaintiffs through their
grandmother to their father. The latter
died before all tbe children caine of age.
and L. B. Bosworth was made executor of
the estate. Nearly ten years ago the prop
erty was sold to Elbert Head, who in
turn sold portions of it to other par
ties, The ground on which is the
city pumping station is involved. It
means a Lug thing for the plaintiffs if
then win. AH tie heirs are not lepresented
In the suit, ami those who are, are, of
course, merely suing for their parts. An
other branch Los also been entered by the
; laintiffs. They enter suit against the ex
ecutor for account in settlement, and claim
they have never had a settlement, although
they came here for that purposs from their
homes in Alabama.
Rome Tribune: Capt. Kell was In
Rome not long ago. He was stand
ing in the marble-tiled office of
the Armst.oig hotel, talking t> a young
follow woo wor: the uniform of the Hill
City. Cadets. "Who is that tall, heavny
bearded man conversing with that
b >y?” inquired a friend of mine. "That,’'
said I, "Is a man in whose presence 1 in ;kr
it a rule to take off my hat. Tiiat is ( apt.
John Mclntosh Kell, tbe most modest man
in the world, and yet one or the most in
trepid and one of tlio most gallant fighters
that ever trod the deck of vessel armed for
war upon the high seas.” “What!” was the
response, "Is that the Kell of the famous
Alabama!” "That is the man,’’l replied.
“Introduce me!” I introduced him; but, as
he hunself will testify, he o mid say no h .ig
but, "I’m very glad—l’m very glad!” Capt.
Kell did not notice his embarrassment, but
I did. Afterward I said to my friend:
“You had but little to say to Capt. Kell.”
“Yes,” was the reply, “I couldn’t talk; I
could do nothing t ut think of tbe Alabama.
Face to face with the man who was tier
•fightirg' officer, I felt too small to Talk.”
They are building a monument in Mobilo to
perpetuate tho memory of Semmes. Capt.
Kell bore the burden of all the Alabama’s
thrilling fights—why should not Georgians
perpetuate his “face and form” in marble
in the capitol of their state!
A good citizen of Atlanta rushes to the
re cue with a scientific explanation of that
Norcross phenomenon—the smoking tree
which has so greatly excited the villagers
by its strange autics. Hays the citizens re
ferred to: "Having noticed for several
days accounts of theao-called wonderful
‘smoking’ mulberry tree in Norcross, 1 am
astonished to think in a community of that
size and intelligence there is no one ver ed
in b >tany sufficient to know the cause.
Mearly all mulberry trees do the same
thing, especially ou the coast. At my old
home we had a large grove aud for
for hours in my youthful days have
1 watched them smoke. I have
not the time to write a full expla
nation, but simply say that it is not smoke,
but the resemblance is perfect. A ftno dust
or powder accumulates under the bark, the
heat expansion causes the bark to burst, the
powder escapes and so near resembles a puff
of smoke that it is almost imp >ssi
ble to tell the difference. To those
wishing full particulars and to
study the question, 1 refer them to ’Elliott’s
Botany of South Carolina and Geo gia,’
‘Porcher’s Resources,’ ‘Southern Fields
and Forest,’ ‘Frost's Botany of the South’
and many other sources. It is so jvell
known to students of forest trees that I am
the more astonished at its causing anv
notice or excitement. Tbe good people of
Norcross are not over the smoky pit, as
they suppose, and can sleep easy. Very re
soeotfully, W. B. Burke."

Pensacola News: A gentleman recently
from British Honduras, met here by a -Veins
reporter, says that Pensaeoiians ought to
encourage capitalists to establish at this
port a canning plant to work up whatever
fruit that may arrive from Central Ameri
can points iu too ripe a condition to bear
transportation to northern aud western
markets, especially bananas. A French
man, says he, who came out to Honduras
from Paris but a few years since, and put
up in Trujillo a small plant, has already
made quite a fortune canning bananas for
export to Europe, giving employment to a
large nuntbor of people lit the vicinity of
Trujillo, and now is preparing to extend his
operations to other points by the establish
ment of branch plants at Puerto Cortez,
B ct del Paduc and upon several of the Bay
islands, as well as at Port Livingstone iu
Guatemala. At first tiis exports were con
fined to Paris and Bordeaux, but orders were
soon received from England, from Ger
many, from Italy and even from Con
stantinople, until the business, com
menced, as it was, upon a most modest
scale, has gradually assumed immense pro
portions. The lndt.au women of Honduras,
the Mosquito coast and about Bccas del
Toro put tbe banana iu tugkr, and, w rap
ping it in green corn shucks, expose it to the
sun untt! well dry, iu which form it is a
rare delicacy, to be offered to favored
