THE NEWS. TOCCOA, GEORGIA. New York and Oregon have wheeled into line m Arbor Day States. Never, in the history of the United States, has there been such a scramble for farms as was witnessed at Oklahoma. The nations of Europe are taxing the people into poverty to build war vessels and pay armies and navies. The Boston Hei'ald humorously remarks that the defeat of Prohibition in Con¬ necticut looks like a case of Pro. and Conn. It is estimated that Americans will spend $40,000,000 in Europe this season, of which probably $2,000,000 will gofo r tips. _ Boulanger is in danger of being forced to come to the United States. The English Government has warned him not to be perniciously active in London or he may be expelled. Population is so scattered in New South Wales that in one case in a recent elec¬ tion where there was an omission to open polls at a%iven locality, the electors had io travel two hundred miles or lose their votes. Senator Dixon, of Rhode Island, is one of the young men of the United States Senate. He and Faulkner,Kenna,Daniel, Spooner, Higgins and Wolcott have numbered not much more than forty years apiece. Fifty counterfeit $10 bills were pre¬ sented and stopped at the banks at St. Louis during one recent day. The counterfeit is a dangerous one of the series of 1885. It is supposed that at least 5000 of these bills are now in circulation. The Yturbide, in the City of Mexico, is probably the grandest hotel in the world. It was built by the Governor foi his palace and cost $3,000,000. It con¬ tains a room used by Governor Yturbide for a chapel that is frescoed in solid gold. _ The delightful condition of the British soldier is seen from the fact that a private who, upon being asked by the orderly officer if he had any complaints to make about his food, replied that he had none except that the potatoes were not boiled enough, was thereupon sentei ced to pass eighty-four hours in a solitary cell for in¬ subordination. A noteworthy event is the installation ot _ Mrs. J. M. Kellogg, wife he oi Attorney-General Missouri, as First Assistant Attorney-General. She was admitted to practice in the Supreme Court eight years ago, and is a member of the State Bar .association, . . .. ,, several r or years she was a partner in the law busi- ness of her husband. Baron Erlanger, of Paris, the largest foreign owner of American railway securities, has been through the South and is enthusiastic on its prospects. He says: “I am so impressed 1 with the opportunities , of the country , ,, hat , ulti- ... mateiy, when my boys reach manhood, 1 shall probably organize our business here in the shape of a branch house. I shall certainly come back to America as soon as I can. I am charmed with it.” Near Valdosta, Ga., are a couple ol deer farms where herds of those auimals are kept within a twelve-foot wire feuce, and pastured upon rye and grass till they are fatter than butter. The original stock came from Florida, and the animals arc now pretty ' well domesticated. The pro- ' pnetors say that , , they can raise . venison much easier and more cheaply than they can turkey, and that they expect, enor¬ mous profits when fairly under way.

Half a century ago iu Turkey it was considered a disgrace lor a noman . tc know how to read. To-day the Suiter himself has established two schools f„, girls in Constantinople. Seventy years ago Harriet Newton went to India to find the women shut no l in zenanas T ignorant g T and and degraded. From the very place where she landed there went to the United Stated not long ago Mme. Jashee, a highly educated Brahmin woman, to study medicine in the Woman’s College in Philadelphia. Poor old Dhuleep Singh is evidently hard up, says the New York Tribune. He has written to Queen Victoria asking her ,o give him the famous Koh-i-noot diamond or its market value in ready cash. He wants the money to use in India against the peace and integrity of the Empire, a circumstance which, coupled with the fact that the gem doesn't belong to him any mors than to a score of other Sikhs, makes his request seem uncommonly cool. The son of the Pun jaub Lion is in a pretty bad way. THE BETTER CHANGE. The road that hath no turning Makes travelers sick with yearning; To hearts where sorrows enter Come joys that sweetest sing; A world without a winter Can never know a spring. Man's hope no fear can fetter Where best may yet grow better; Faith builds no walls of granite Where time is but begun. And life, a changing planet. Runs round a changeless sun. Oh bliss of expectation! Ob sweeter revelation Beyond these fading pleasures, Beyond these falling tears, Where love’s new-given treasures Grow never old with years I Above all harm and hating. Through pain of want and waiting, Comes holy comfort’s wooing, In words of heavenly breath, ‘•This grief is not undoing, This dying is not death.” Faith's martyrs, love's anuointed, Hope’s toilers disappointed, Shorn lambs to shelter slumber From earth’s oppression passed— All, with God’s star-crowned number Shall find their meed at last. To hold that future firmer Is wise to do, nor murmur Because its entrance only Lies through the mortal gate. The soul cannot be lonely Where friends so many wait. Death’s deluge boundless swelling, May drift this transient dwelling, When fear's foreboding raven Hath flown across the sea, The dove of peace my haven Will find, and come to me. And I shall rest securely At anchor there, and surely God’s hand will break my prison, And I my heaven shall view When, for His children risen, He maketh all things new. —Theron Brown , in Youth's Companion. A TERRIBLE RIDE. »—-■«™. “Now then, Dave, I reckon that’s about all. Don’t fergit theterbacker, an’ don’t fail ter inquire if thar's any letters fur Abram Bartlett,” and glaring at Dave over his great horn spectacles, Mr. Bart- lett leaned over the counter and slowly repeated the last clause. “\es, sir,” answered Dave, struggling hard to keep back a smile, for Mr. Bart- lett s anxiety about letters was a standing joke at Dagon’s Cross Roads, as he was never known to have received one yet. “And where are you expectin’ a letter from, Mr. Bartlett?” Dave asked. The storekeeper's brow wrinkled and be hesitated between anger and amaze- ment at such audacity. Before he could reply the door opened and Squire Dagon came in. “Going to Wysanking, Dave?” he asked abruptly. “lies, sir. ’ “Now see here, my boy,” went on the squire, pulling out a bulky-looking pocket- book. “I think I can trust you, and I want you to attend to a little bussiness for me. I ought to go to Wysanking myself to-day, but I find it impossible. In this pocket-book is the money to pay the loggers over in Powell’s Valley.

"Now*, Dave,” called out Mr. Bartlett, * ‘don’t fergit ter ax the postmaster if there’s any—” but Dave was already out of hearing. “Dave Hunter is an honest lad,” ob- served the squire, lighting a cigar. “The mon ey will be safe enough with him, I guess. ’ Mr. Bartlett took a pinch of snuff, and drawled out slowly: “Waal, yes I reckon he is - But he ’ s gettin’ impudent, squire, 1 indent.” 1 ue squire only laughed, and with a cheery “good morning,” mounted his horse and rode off to visit his lumber camps. ~ # if . hap tr,wWi 2 F a V l lark as he vaU ®y» l )l,llin S a “ bZlf.win been k.l ed by an accident His several father years had beioie at one of bquire Dagon s lumber camps, and ever since Dave had been ^ or king h.iid to .supp°rt his mother.

He could heir the mountain rent brawling over tta rocky bed away down in the ravine, and some birds were chattering in the woods. It was toward noon when he crossed a small clearing that lay half a mile back from the river. The ridge at this point widened and formed quite a vast plateau, Dave walked fast, and before long he could see the end of the wood less than a quarter of a mile away, and the great pines that rose on either side of the slide, He was still thinking of all the delight- ful possibilities that lay snugly next to his breast, and wondering if ever he would be the owner of so much money, when a gruff voice broke in on his reflec¬ tions. “Hullo, Dave, me boy!” Leaning against a great rock on one side of the path was Black Mike, a worth- less fellow, who had been discharged from one of the camps nearly a week before, and whom every one supposed to be far away by this time. A broad griu dis- torted his ugly face, and his hands were thrust carelessly into his pockets. Dave’s heart sank within him, but he repressed all signs of fear, and with a cheerful “How dy do, Mike?” he walked past. “See here a minit, me lad,” and Mike stepped out in front of him. “I’ll trouble ye to hand over that money, me boy. You’re too young intirely to be trusted wid such valuables.” He leered at Dave with a chuckle, evi- dently anticipating an easy victory. Dave trembled as he realized how com- pletely he was in the ruffian’s power. “Be quick, now,” added Mike. “I’ll not harm ye. Pass it ovdt, an’ go back an’ tell ouid Dagon him an’ me’s quite now. Hurry up, Oi say,” and Mike’s smile gave way to a heavy frown. At this critical moment, like a flash an inspiration came into Dave’s mind, a plan so reckless, so daring, that it nearly took his breath. Fhe money must be saved at any cost. How could he face the squire and confess that he had calmly handed it over at the robber s bidding? Quick as conceived, his determination was formed. He must take the only chance, but it was a desperate one. “See here, Mike,” said he, “what’ll the squire say if I go back this way? Can’t you tie my hands behind me so h ^r:„'h m d e a fl .f ,or itr e« , „ ud “Oi’ll be hanged if you ain’t a cute one. I'll see if Oi have any cord,” and he dove into his pockets with both hands. Dave took one long breath, and like a streak shot off down the road, with his sled careering madly from side to side be- hind him. The very daring of the act nearly de- prived Mike of his senses for an instant, and with open mouth and staring e} r es he saw the space between them grow big- gcr and bigger. Then, with a terrible imprecation, he dashed in pursuit, shout- ing loudly: “Stop, ye thafe, stop, or Oi’ll break every bone in yure body!” Dave was making a desperate effort, straining every nerve, and holding his breath hard, but the infuriated Irishman was strides coming on behind with great plung- ing that were rapidly bringing him closes The bluff of the mountain was very near now, and beyond the cliff line Dave could see, far across the river, snow-clad fields and scattered farms, and even a tiny church spire, shining clear in the bright moonlight. But before him, only a few yards now, was that awful abyss, ten times longer and steeper than any tdbag- gan slide ever built, a great gully, gliding almost perpendicularly down the rugged face of the mountain. Dave remembered with a shudder how the great logs used to plunge madly down the slide, turning somersaults at the bot- tom, and churning the turbid tide of the river into a seething caldron of tawny yellow foam. Now the river was ice bound from shore to shore, The robber’s crunching footsteps were close behind him. An instant’s delay and he was lost; He stooped, grasped the sled with both hands and threw himself with a forward motion heavily down the path, As the runners struck the frozen snow, Black Mike, with a wild cry, hurled him- self on Dave’s back. The sled, freighted with its heavy burden, shot rapidly down the path, and darting between two great pines, plunged sullenly over the brink, Not a cry escaped its occupants, and what followed Dave could never after- ward speak of intelligently. When the sled made the plunge he jerked his cap partly over his eyes and held his head down. He remembered the Irishman’s heavy weight on his back, the long arms that reached beyond his own and gripped the sides of the sled. Then came a blind, dizzy sensation, a roaring in his ears, burning pains as of a thousand needles piercing his hands and face, a feeling cap" of suffocation.

Instinctively he reached for his breast pocket. The money was there. He was just beginning to realize the situation when the sled plunged blindly into a face, and then in some mysterious man- ner, he never knew how' the crushing ice again at a beautiful Speed. A l moment j and j its • • more iron runners craped the sands on the Wysanking sho5 F Dizzy and bleeding. Dave staggered up the bank and looked back across the *?•.

Black Mike was rescued by the aid oJ boards, rather more dead than alive, and was speedily consigned to a stone cell ir Towanda. That same evening Dave wafc escorted back to Dagon's Cross Roads by an ad- miring crowd, and in front of Bartlett’s store was received by the squire himself, who publicly called him a hero, anc ended up by presenting him with t pocket-hook that felt as heavy as lead, As the squire stepped aside, Mr. BaVt- left came out of his store, ‘•Dave Hunter,” he called out shrilly, “did you fergit ter ax if there was any mail fer Abram Bartlett at the postoflice V The wild shout of laughter that arose made the storekeeper's eyes flash nuclei his spectacles, and in the confusion Dave slipped off home. His heroism had re ceived due recognition from the squire, and he is now on a sure road to pros- perity. As for Black Mike, he .spent two years in close confinement for his share in th( adventure. No one ever knew how ht discovered that Dave had the money that day. One summer afternoon long afterwards. Dave visited the old lumber slide, and as he looked into the dizzy gulf, he saw what had caused that last great, crash Half a dozen yards from the bottom was a huge log, stretched directly across the passage. The snow had backed up above this, -and the fearful momentum had scnl the sled far into the air, landing, strangi to say, fair and square on its runners.— The Argosy. Derelicts. The long journey made by derelicts— vessels abandoned by their crew r s to drift whithersoever the winds and currents carry them—have lately become a inattei of great interest. The American schooner. W. L. White, which was abandoned not far from the Delaware coast, drifted cleai across the Atlantic, crossed and recrosseci her own track many times, and finally went upon the rocks on the Hebrides islands, off the coast of Scotland. Shf had occupied more than ten months in thf strange voyage. Throughout that turn she was a continual danger to naviga tion. It is the duty of a master of a vessel who encounters a derelict on the high seas, at a distance from shore too great to make it practicable to tow her to port, to blow up or otherwise sink the derelict; but lately an abandoned steamer floated about off the coast of South America which no ship-master dared approach. She had a great iron hull, her cargo had taken fire, and the fire, after consuming hef woodwork) still smouldered in the hull for a long time. The heat kept othei vessels at their distance. In order to study more closely the movements and directions of the ocean currents, upon which so much of the safety and celerity of navigation depends, th 6 United States Hydrographic Bureau has had printed a large number of blanks, which it will cause to be distributed amon g ship-masters sailing in all parts ol the workL The blanks are to be filled out with statements of the exact location where vessels may be at a given time, and then placed in bottles, which are to be so sealed and weighted that only a part of the necks will appear above the water, in order that they may not be blown by the wind. The bottles will then be thrown into the sea. Upon the bottom of each of the blanks is printed a notice requesting the finder to forward it to the nearest consul Of the United States, or to the Hydrographic Bureau at Washington, after affixing the exact date and place where the bottle containing the blank was found. It is hoped that, in the course of time, enough of these blanks,which are printed in six different languages, will find their way back to Washington, to establish many new facts with regard to the direc¬ tion and force of ocean currents— Youth's Companioni The Dearest Book in the World; The Paris Bulletin de VImprimerie con¬ tains the following query, which I think likely to interest your readers: “Whai was the highest price ever given for any book? We leave this question to be de¬ cided by competent authorities among book lovers. We may, however, venture to say that we know of one for which a sum its of 250,000 francs ($50,000) was paid by present owner, the German Govern¬ ment. That book is a missal, formerly given by Pope Leo X. to King Henry VIII, of England, along with a parchment conferring on that sovereign the right ol assuming the title of ‘Defender of the Faith,’ borne ever since by English Kings. Charles II. made a present of ths missal to the ancestor of the famous Duke of Hamilton, whose extensive and valuable library was sold some years ago by Messrs. Sothebv, Wilkinson & Hodge of London .

Beggs, of Chicago, Ill., an attor¬ ney, is the reputed censor guardian of the Columbia Club or Camp 96 of the Clan na-Gael. It was in this camp, as the story goes, that Dr. Cronin was tried for treason in star chamber proceedings and sentenced to death. The police have for some days had their eyes upon Mr. Beggs, and have been zealously laboring to collect evidence enough to connect him and his camp with the removal of Dr. Cronin. “My belief is,” said Mr. Beggs, “that the oath of the Clan-na- Gael foibids me to disclose the names of the officers or members of the order, or its objects or proceedings. However, I will tell you frankly that I hope the oath of secrecy may be suspended until this thing is c.eaicd up. if the Clan does not acquit itself of all connection with this crime it will be totally wrecked and the Irish in American will perish with it. I will say we have contributed about $5,000,000 to free Ireland and $80,000 of it has been stolen and a horrid mur¬ der committed to cover up the theft, and we will not contribute another cent. But if the oath of secrecy should be sus¬ pended by the chief executive officer, the order will instantly be acquitted of com¬ plicity in the crime.” POOR PRACTICE. five On Tuesday, a negro desperado firec shots st an Atlanta, Gn., policeman and the officer fired six shots at the mar he wished to arrest, but none of their took (ffect.
