Friday. Reynolds went over to Merritt's and from what we can gather, assaulted him. Mr. Merritt was sick ut the time and in the wind-up. he emptied the contents of a gun loaded with bird-shot, in the face ami arm of Reynolds, disabling him. Mr. Merritt came in and got warrants for Reynolds. He was tried In the county court for heating his mother in law und llued g? and costs or ten months and put under a •SOO peace bond.

The water tank erected in th<* rear of th* mayor's residence had becomo unsafe, and workmen began to demolish it for the purpose of erect ing anew one. The tower is about forty feet in bight In some unaccountable way a piece of iron piping about two feet long was thrown, or fell, from the top of the tower. It descended straight downward and struck the little fellow who was playing near, directly on the summit of the head. inflicting a frightful wound The skull was badly fractured and shattered, and a depression fully one inch in diameter was made in his head The boy was picked up and carried into the house, and several physicians spent the afternoon en deavortng to relieve him as much as posstblo.

There is a movement on foot by citizens of Sandersviile to construct an electric line from Sandersville to Tonallle. Col J. X. Gilmore of Sandersviile. who has beon in A u >su\ for the past few days, has been in consultation with Col. D. B. Dyer in regard to the con struction of electric lines. Col.

It was then that Sandersviile made bp its mind that the 1 est Interests of the place suggested tho building of anew railroad to Tennille that would come in o competition with the Augusta Southern. The matter went to the courts, where it still hangs. .Sandersviile wanted to subscribe u round sum of money to aid in the construc tion of the new road, and had arranged to do so, when citizens there secured an injunction avuinst the city preventing it from making such a subscription on the ground that tin money on hand was otherwise appropriated. The proceedings are now pending. The elec * trie line is now look* and upon by some us the best solution of tho trouble, or fancied trouble, in which the town finds itself in volved.

Dr. Gary Bays: “Thepeoph aregreatl) indebted to the united States fish commissioner for the great aid he has rendered in the work of restocking the rivers. From th*- partial ex amination already made, it is gratifying to be a:le tosav that th** increase of shad has been exceedingly great in all the rivers of Georgia. I regret to say that the quantity < f shad in the M. Johns river is yearly de creasing. This ib due to the river being over fished and uo plantings being made 10 re plenish the supply. Unless better protection Is afforded, It will be nut a fev% years before the -had will become extinct in toe. St. Johns, which l believe to be one of the best streams in this country for the shad.

Dr. Cary says that the state of Flor ida lias a stringent law for hsh protection, but that law is uot. enforced The St. .Johns river shad sir*- always Die first in the market and have a delicious flavor. They should bo protected and the river restocked. Dr. <'arv adds that the United States fish commission will certainly aid in tniv matter. Between 2.000.0 ft) and 3.0)0.000 shad have been planted in th** waters of Georgia by Dr Cary in the past two years. POSTAGE STAMPS. The Government Will Hereafter Print Them Itself—How a Die Is Made. From the Chicago Record. On July 1 the government of the United States will commence printing its own postage stamps at the bureau of engrav ing and printing. Up to this time they have been furnished by private companies under contract, tho National Bank-Note Company of New York having done tho work for many years. Last spring, when it came time to let the contract again, the bureau of engraving and printing put in a bid which was less than one-half that of any other bidder. There was consider able opposition to having the work done by the government, and the other bidders made a great fuss about it be cause, as the.\ claimed, it was un fair for Uncle Sam to compete with then), because he had no interest or rent to pay and expected no profit. The question was finally carried to congress, when the plan of the Secretary of the Treasury and th* Postmaster General was sustained. The printing, gumming and perforating machines are already in place at the printing bureau, and now plates are being made from the old dies, so that the work will commence promptly July 1. There will bo pew designs adopted soon, but for the present the old ones will be used for the common stamp the 2 cent stamp with the head of Washington 1 printed in carmine ink and the l-cent, which bears the head of Franklin and is printed in ultramarine blue. In order to j distinguish those printed by the govern • meet a little ornament will be placed in tho blank space in the upper corners, i This is a fact of interest to collectors. 1 There is quite a quantity of the old stamps on hand, and the new ones will not be issued until they are needed, al though it is necessary to keep a largo stock in the distributing offices, ns about 7,iHM),(Kk) 2 cent stamps are used daily and about H,500,000 of tho l-cent denom ination. Postage stamps are printed by engraved cylinders in sheets of 4(R. A die is first cut in a block of steel about three inches square, like and iutaglio. ; The steel is then hardened by what is known as the decarbonizing process that is, all of the carbon is burned out of ; the metal b.v subjecting it to intense heat, and then tho impression is transferred to a roll or cylinder of soft ! stoel, like a cameo. From this working plates or rolls arc made, which aro afterward hardened by the same process. This method was invented by a Vermont .Yankee, named Perkins, about half a cen tury ago. He took the invention to Lon don and tried to sell it to the British government, but the officials over there were opposed to innovation as usual, and Mr. Perkins brought it back home and sold the patent to his own government. The stamp collectors have cornered the #1 stamps of Columbia issue, and uncan celed ones are now worth £lO.

A TREE WITH A TEMPER. It Grows in Arizona Along With An other That Gives Light. From the New York Sun. ‘■There are more queer thing’s to the acre in Arizona than in any other part of this wide land,” said Col. Brace Dion, of Houck's Tank, Apache county, "and, ac cording to my idea, and I know pretty near what queer things are, the queerest thing in all Arizona is the tree that has a temper worse than a blonde comic opera prima donna's, and gets its dander up with just as small provocation. They tell mo out there that this tree belongs to the coniferous species. It grows to be something like twenty-five feet high and then stops, its leaves are long, sleuder and pointed, like porcupine quills. When this troe is in good humor these leaves lie close to the branches, and it spreads a pleasant aromatic odor all around. But when it is angry every leaf on the tree rises upon end, and the aspect of that particular piece of timber is about as fierce and threatening as anything you would care to look at. The pleasant resinous odor the tree sent forth in its peaceful mood gives way to an odor that will put wings on you feet to place as much distance as you cau between the offensive troe and yourself. "This tree is especially touchy on the subject of dogs, and the coming of a ca nine anywhere near it will instantly make it furious. Yet a wolf, a grizzly bear, or a mountain lion never ruffles the temper of this tree if those animals do not pre sumo on too great familiarity with it. They may lie around it as long as they care to. but if one of them so far forgets itself as to rub or scratch the trunk of the tree, the hot-tempered thing will fly into one of its tantrums instantly, and th way Mr. Bear, Wolf or Lion will mak himself scarce in those parts is a whol circus to see. Nothing will work thi tree up to concert pitch, though, so quickly and effectually as throwing stones at it. Then if #ill actually rip and tear, and no living thing would think of going within gunshot of it. Some folks out at Houck's Tank call this tree tho porcu pine tree, and some say its right namo is skunk tree. 1 call it tho holy terror tree. But no matter what you call it, it is a queer job of nature and Arizona claims it as her own. "While this tree is the only real, gen uine Gov. Waite sort of a vegetable king dom crank we’ve got in Arizona, we point with some more pride to another tree that only Arizona soil has the talent to produce. This one is the electric light tree. This tree is not as abundant as tho holy terror tree, and is a dwarf, seldom having the courage to get more than twelve feet high. Its foliage is very dense, and at night it gleams like an are light. The light that shines from this tree is so strong that one may sit twenty five feet away aud read fine print The queerest point of the tree is that its light begins to grow dim with the coming of the new moon and steadily loses brilliancy until the moon is full. Then the tree is as dark as a mine. When the moon begins to wane the tree's lumi nosity is renewed, and by the time the moon his disappeared the tree is shining again as brightly as over. Sometimes the light on this queer tree becomes faint even in the dark of the moon. Then we have to do a queer thing to restore it_ We drench it with a bucketful or two of water, and instantly the effulgent glow will return in all its brilliancy." „ A Boston clergyman said In his sermon on Sunday last Summer tllrtallon Is a viper, ihe discourse of the reverend doctor Is said to have been a rattler.—Utica Observer.
