A New Orleans special of Friday says: The full story of the grent storm is now told. Every settlement in its path has been visited, every survivor interviewed and has told his tale of its terrors and its heroism. The news- papers of the city are at last able to publish a list of t he dead, which is not likely to require many changes or ad- ditions. The only doubtful element is the loss of life at Cheniere Caminada, " here 776 bodies have been recovered and buried.

The Louisiana state board of health has sent lime and other disinfectants to be used where the dead are Ixfing. An appeal was made to the board to bury the dead, but a majority decided that this was not within its province and that the burying must be done by the parishes.

Mr. Lafon lost his wife and fifteen children, Aiser Petre his wife and ten children and A n .?v 8t ^ ^ and t en children. t The families of the three Valence brothers, who lived together, John, Aulome njul Perie, consisted of six grown persons and twenty chil¬ dren. Of these twenty-six only one, John Valence, survived. The effects of the storm at the Che- Rte’re all are seen houses, only in the destruction °* the but the geography an( l character of the country are changed. The settlement formerly faced Barataria bay. The wash¬ ing away of its front has made it face 6 n lf of Mexico. Chandleur island has censed largely o he an island, the storm washing away the soil and leav- in g it merely a reef covered in ordi- 1)nr y tides. A number of bayous have changed their courses, while* lakes or bays have been enlarged or lessened, horror’s climax. Terrific as was the work of the storm elsewhere, on Cheniere Caminada it reached a climax of horror. Cheniere «»“eof that group of islands which extend along the lower coast, and to which belong Grand isle, Tam- i, a]ie r and Lost island.

The International Brotherhood of Railway Track Foremen held its sec¬ ond regular annual convention in At¬ lanta the past week. Representatives from all parts of the United States were present. Nash E. Broyles has been appointed United States commissioner for the Northern district of Georgia to suc¬ ceed Judge C. C. Haley, whose death tw’o weeks ago created a vacancy in the office. The postoffice at Hull station on the Georgia, Carolina and Northern rail¬ road w as broken into recently by un¬ known parties and about 700 one and two-cent stamps stolen, besides a small amount of merchandise from the stock of the store in which the postoffice was quartered. * * * The district convention of the Asso¬ ciation for the Suppression of Out¬ rages and Lynchings, was held at Waycross a few days ago. The meet¬ ing was fairly well attended, consider¬ ing the brief notice on which it w-as gotten up. A committee was appoint¬ ed to prepare and issue a call for the state meeting, which will be held at Macon, Ga., October 19th. Mr.W. A. Paschal, of Waycross, has harvested 20,000 pounds of choice hay from the ground on which a crop of oats was harvested this year. The hay was properly cured and is now gather¬ ed in stacks over the field. He will clear over $100 from his crop of hay. This shows what can be done on the farms of south Georgia. There is money to be made by saving the hay after the crops have been harvested. “Good roads and better roads” should be the cry from end to end of Georgia. It is impossible to estimate to w hat extent this state has been held back by bad roads. The wheels of progress have stuck in the mud. A triumphal march has been hindered and stopped by deep gullies or impass¬ able swamps until at last we cry, “Give ns good roads or w T e cannot move on.” The advent of good roads in this state will mark a wonderful in¬ crease in its prosperity, and we main¬ tain that no real improvement will be made in the agricultural situation un¬ til we have good roads and plenty of them .—Macon Telegraph. Colonel Jesse L. Blalock, one of the oldest and best known citizens of Georgia, died at his home at Jones- boro, a few days ago. Colonel Blalock ^yetteviUe. whie ho was bom, and at Jonesboro. The Blalock Georgia family has resided in that section of for nearly a century and is among the best in the state. Colonel Blalock was a lawyer by profession, but of recent years he has practiced bis bp* time little, to devoting his financial the.greater interests. partjff He "as was possessed ""' 1 of considerable J 1 ' proper- ty, i n Tayette and Clayton counties, which he looked after with an active interest unusual in a man of his ad- vaneed age. A novel point of law was made in Judge Van Epps’court at Atlanta re- centlv in the case of the Grand Rap- ids, Mich., Furniture company against L. DeGive. The furniture company sued ;xf r _ DeGive for material furnisli- ed and obtained judgment. Mr. De¬ Give went before the city court, through his attorney, and asked that the judgment be set aside on the' ground that he represents a foreign power and cannot l> 3 sued in the state Tte atlorae,. for .he plain- tiff filed affidavits alleging that Mr. DeGive was accredited to the United States before the war, and that since that time Georgia had been out of the union. Judge tan Epps reserved his decision. At the last session of the Ware County Teachers’ association, held at Waycross, a resolution was adopted urging that monthly institutes be abol- ished, and the five days combined with the annual session, making ten days to be held consecutively. Another reso- lution called for more prompt pay to the teachers. A third resolution de- dared it to be the sense of the mod- ing that all public l do <>1 funds should be disbursed proportionately as per regbtralion, teachers and that ill ydiould be i al d tu acc» ruing to registra- tion and not by actual average. A uniform system of text books was pro- nounced “disadvantageous.” Kepre- sentatives in the legislature will be asked to embody these resolutions in legislation. (Ifcrgia'd Cotton. Georgia’s cotton crop will fall short of that of last year. That is the out¬ look as viewed bv Commissioner of Agriculture Nesbitt. When kin esti¬ mate was sent out on the first of the month, the indications pointed to a crop not at all m excess of the crop of last year and the commissioner stated the case plainly. Since then reports from over two hundred corre¬ spondents representing all sections of the state, put an even worse view on the situation. These show that the falling off, particularly in north Geor¬ gia, is much greater than was first es¬ timated, and the indications are that the crop w ill be 10 per cent off from that of last year. Letters received within the last few days from Burk, Screven, Murray, Baker and Sumter among others, and all tell the same story. It looks like a shert crop. * # * Farmers’ National Convention. Elaborate preparations are being made for the entertainment of the delegates to the national farmers’ con¬ vention which is to be held in Savan¬ nah Dec. 12 to 15. Governor Northen will welcome the delegates to Georgia, while Mayor McDonough will extend them a cordial welcomo to the city. President J. O. Waddell will welcome the delegates on behalf of the State Agricultural Society. There will be speakers on the list from South Caro¬ lina, Mississippi, Georgia, Kansas, Nebraska, Maine, Illinois and other states. The conven tion ivas held last year in Lincoln, Neb., and Vice President Purse, after a b ard fight, succeeded in securing it for Savannah this year. The resolution under which the con¬ vention was brought here included a guarantee that the expenses of the convention to an amount not to exceed $500 would be paid and that the usual reduction in hotel rates would be se¬ cured, two things with which Savan¬ nah never has and never will find any difficulty in complying when a body like the National Farmers’ convention consents to pay them a visit. Peabody Work in Georgia. The Georgia holders of Peabody scholarship in Vanderbilt university have gone to Nashville. Representa¬ tives holding Peabody scholarships are: Miss Ella L. Huff, Columbus; Miss Lizzie McCord, Zebulon ; .Miss Lilliau J. Porter, Tallapoosa; Miss Helen Proffet, Atlanta; Mr. Walter Rountree, Emanuel county ; Mr. Ewell E. Treadwell, Greene county; Miss Leona Wright, Meriwether ; Miss Lucy H. Green, DeKalb ; Miss Mamie Dru- ble, Terrell; Mr. J. J. Nash, Walton; Miss Lucy Anderson, Atlanta; Mr. W. G. Adams, Thomas county; Miss lone M. Bailey, Savannah; Miss Mary M. Brooke, Canton; Miss Mattie Crowley, Luthersville; Mr. Jason Scarboro, Bulloch county; Mr. Tonita Short, Wilkes county; Miss Maud Smith, Atlanta; Mr. R. Whitmnth, Logansville; Mr. H. B. Davis, Cov¬ ington ; Mr. W. P. Bailey, Newton county; Mr. H. B. Howard, Cohutta. Each of these receives from the Pea¬ body fund $100 a year, traveling ex¬ penses to and from Nashville and some books. Georgia receives from the fund for this purpose about $4,000. In re¬ turn each recipient binds him or her¬ self to teach two years in Georgia or refund the money. Advance in Naval .Stores. The receipts of naval stores at Savan¬ nah have been unusually large during the past three w T eeks. This is on ac¬ count of the shipments which would go to Brunswick being sent there. The la rge receipts have not had the effect of weakening the market, how¬ ever, as prices have been steadily ad¬ vancing recently and the demand seems to be on the increase. The mark¬ et for rosins has been firm for several weeks. There is a good demand for all grades, mediums and pales being specially sought after. These grades bring higher prices than the quota¬ tions when separated from the general lot. Although the stocks of spirits turpentine and rosin on hand and on shipboard are more than double that at this time last year, they are not really on the market, but have been sold, and are waiting to be shipped. One firm doing business in Savannah owns about one-half of the stock on hand. The price for spirits turpen¬ tine is about the same as it was this time last year. Common rosins are about 10 cents cheaper, while medium and pales are bringing more than they were last year. TWO RECEIVERS Will Notv Direct the Affairs of the Cen¬ tral Railroad. The Central Railroad Cempany co- receivership matter was disposed of by Justice Jackson at Washington Saturday. Upon the petition concur¬ red in by many bondholders and secu¬ rity holders of the system the court appointed R. Somers Hayes, of New York, co-receiver with H. M. Comer, the present receiver, the ground of the petition being the magnitude of the interest at stake and necessary for the division of lal or, the appointment in no wise reflecting upon the present receiver. Mr. Hayes is the president of the St. Paul and Duluth railroad, .anti of the New York and Northern. The appointment is received with general satisfaction by all concerned.

The largest natural hive in the world j B Jventuckv, known under the name of “Mammoth Bee Hive.” It is, in fact, a cavern, the largest compart¬ ment of which is 150 feet high, and which extends to about teu acres. It is in very hard rock, and the whole height is covered with honey by the bees. M. Bertrand, a famous French api- culturist. has hives containing twenty- six rows, being double the ordinary English hives. The largest bee-keeper in the world is M. Harbison, of California,who pos¬ sesses 6,000 hives, supplying 200,000 pounds of honey per annum, The United states is at the head of the list of honev-producing countries, There are estimated to tie 2,800,000 hives belonging to 70,000 rearers, ftn d producing 61,000,000 pounds of honey yearly, In Greece there are 30,000 hives, producing 3,000,000 pounds of honey ; in Denmark, 90,000 hives producing 2,000,000 pounds ; in Russia, 110,000 hives, producing the same quantity ; in Belgium, 200,000 hives, producing 5,000,000 pounds; in the Netherlands, 240,000 hives producing 6,000,000 pounds. Iu France a yield of 25,000,- 000 pounds is obtaned from 950,000 hives. In Germany and Austria the production is very nearly the same. The Opal a Harbinger of Ill-Luck. Some of the older authorities give the opal as an emblem of hope, But a writer on the subject, Rabbi Beno- ni, who lived iu the fourteenth centu¬ ry, says of it: “The opal is fatal to love, and sows discord between the giver and receiver. Given as an en¬ gagement token it is sure to bring ill- luck.” A late writer on the vagaries of fashion -says “An opal figures in Sir Walter Scott’s novel of ‘Anne of Geir- sten,’ and its possession was fatal to the family of the heroine. The idea that they were unlucky obtained such currency that after the publica¬ tion of the novel they went out of fashion.” The same writer says: “When Miss Grant married Mr. Sar- toris she had among her presents a set of opals. Much was said about the ill-omen, and if report is to be believ¬ ed, her marriage has been a wretched one. It is even asserted that they are especially unlucky when given to a bride. ”— Ex. A Babe for 73 Years. The funeral of Charles Talley, at Chadd’s Ford, Penn., a few days ago, was the final chapter in the history of a remarkable man. He was 73 years and 6 months old, yet never either fed or dressed himself a single time in all his life. Every part of his body was perfectly formed, yet he could per¬ form only the most simple acts with hands or feet. He was 1 year old be¬ fore he raised his hand from the pil¬ low, and 12 years old before he made any jirogress whatever in locomotion. His mind was clear, his judgment keen and his memory retentive. He was a resident of Brandywine Hun¬ dred, Del., but \ias buried at Chadd’s Ford. —Philadelphia Record. His Good Point.
