Georgia Lande In Demand.
One of the largest transactions
Which has occurred IS Georgia lands
for many ybars has just been closed,
A Syndicate, composed mainly ot Ohio
people, have bought 230,000 acres of
land, comprising several large tracts
In Ware, Clinch and Charlton counties.
The exact price paid Is not known, but
tho Arst payment amounted to $100,
000.
The syndicate has Just been incor
porated under,the naiub of The Chan
dler Land corporation. The purchases
have been mado from lime to time
during the put eighteen months. The
largest deal occurred recently when
the syndicate bought up the Bouth
Georgia holdings of what arc widely
known as the McKee-Bell lands, being
tracts amounting In the aggregate to
about 120,000 acres. The Mckee-Bell
lands were bought directly from tho
state by Joseph McKee, of Georgia,
and Henry Boll, of Maryland, prior to
the war. McKee and Bell were boy
friend's in Ireland. They came to
America about 1835 on the same' ship,
Bell settling In Baltimore and McKee
coming to Georgia. Both were success,
ful and Invested their savings In the
purchase of lands In Georgia and
North Carolina, as the aame were of.
ferod for sale from tlmo to time by
these states. Both men lived to a ripe
old age, and some years after their
death their children disposed <jif much
of the lands and divided the remain
der. At one time McKee and Bell
were larger owners of Georgia lands
than any other person appearing on
the tax books.

Probably the most ardent levelcr In the
world would not claim that all men are fun
damentally alike, and fundamentally equal,
nnd thii is not the place, certainly, to be
drawn off into any nice speculation upon
that mattef; but apparent diffeicnrcs be
tween people are not at all to be taken as
just measure of their actual differences;
Christ’s eulogies arc conspicuous for being
pronounced upon the inconspicuous, and
that is a fact to be thought upon as tend
ing to change the attitude of our feelings
toward the submerged ninety-nine per cent,
of the race. And I am urging this point
not for the purpose of establishing a the
ory, but in order that those of you who
arc evidently - of n good deal of account
may see more reason for respecting and
honoring those whose claims to your re*
sptet And admiration are of an undemon
strative type. Once let them have nn open
field aqd a fair chance nnd perhaps they
will change places with you. This may have
been a part of what the Lord hnd in mind
when He said that “many that are first
shall be last, and the last first.'*
The idea has been rather hard ridden—
overridden—that if the possibilities of ef
fect are in • man or woman, those possibili
ties arc bound to come to their realization,
however untoward mav be the circum
stances that stand in their way. It was
once elegantly stated by one whose elo
quent face is still fresh in the memory ol
many of us—“How manv Miltons may navi
died in their mothers* nrrns we cannot
state, but the grown-up Miltons have been
heard from.'* Easy to snv. difficult to prove
and eminently improbable. Of a hundred
kernels of wheat scarce one ever fulfills
the destiny marked for it in its own consti
tution, but the ninety-nine that nre ground
un in the mill arc each as full of the pos
sibilities of 'blade, car anti full corn in tho
ear,** as the one that happens to bo
dropped into the furrow. A tropical palm
will still lie nothing less than a palm even
though grown in a northern latitude, but
however abounding may be it* native ener
gies and vital forces it will unequal to
the discouragement of short days and early
frosts.
The. apostle Tcter ha* become a great
power'Hi the history of the church and of
Christum civilization, but if on the day
that Jesus went strolling along the beach,
gathering up disciples, Pete.* bad been out
at sea fishing instead of inshore mending
hit nets it is not probable he would ever
have been heard from. It is rather »
tank to be somewhere near tho track
the train of opportunity goes by. There
is undoubtedly a providence in things, but
at* the same time there is an accident in
things in the sense in which that word ac
cident can bo properly used by us. You
will recall the incident which St. John
relates as -occurring at the pool of Hetli-
esds. There wa* some medicinal property
in the waters of the pool perha|M, at any
rate at certain times an anzel descended
into the pool and troubled the water anc
the one who wa* fortunate enough to be
the first to get into the water after it was
troubled wa* healed of any infirmity from
which he might be suffering. That ft. the
man who chanced to be closest to the track
when the train of opportunity went by
could go aboard nnd arrive.
As already said, these arc matters to
dwell unon because the consideration of
them enhance* our respect for (hose about
us and strengthens our confidence in the
final outworking of things. It quite chans'**

that was framed to encompass the light
and which made you suppose there wa* a
great deal more luminousness than wa* act
ually the case. That is the way in which
our estimates generally nre arrive* ab
original light with the circumjacent reflec
tor added in—central flame plus the au
reole.
Now the Lord in His estimates dis-
>enses with aureole—which is what ocrip-
,ure means when it says that He lookout
not on the outward appearance. He is
never mi-lcd by reflectors or by the ab
sence of icflcctors. A man may have very
little virtue nnd yet pot that virtue into
some showy achievement with a large su-
K-rficinl area, whereupon men get out
heir measuring rods, figure up the ares,
jonsult the multiplication table nnd decide
that he has a great deal of virtue; that 1*
what I mean by computing on a basis ol
sureole, adding reflector to the little kero

may have an immense amount of virtue,
but circumstance* bq, such that it never
becomes manifested in a wav to arrc*t at
tention—a very beautiful light it may be,
but not shining under condition* that nng
it with n hale.
Now that wa* the case with the woman
in the temple. The halo hunter* saw
nothing but a commonplace widow travel'
ng past the contribution box. The Lord
with whom nimbus does not count, saw
and felt what the woman herself meant
and was. To Him she was the same a*
though she had dropped in a thousand
shekels, hut not to other* who were pres
ent, for others would have reasoned just as
people do now, and would have looked to
the size of her gift to determine the size
of her heart and would have concluded
therefore that she had a two penny heart.
Already nineteen hundred years ago that
poor widow had been become convinced
that “nobody ha* a right to die rich.
She acted on the principle when she threw
in her two mites. No one made anything
•f it but Jesus, because there was not gild
ing enough upon her advertisement of the
principle to make the air bright about it.
Nineteen hundred years later the same
principle that “nobody has a right to do
die rich" was announced by one quite dif
ferently rituated from the widow with two
mites; and the principle and the man who
tnnouncca ft, were nuDnshed and heralded
dear around the globe. In the first in
stance there wra .only a two-penny halo,
and in the other a million-aollar halo, and
the big halo won. It cannot be part of
our purpose to claim that the illustr.ou*
Scotchman it not just as charitable as tho
inconspicuous Jewess. We ore only claim
ing that the reflector that you frame
around five lamp is no part ot the lamp
and certainly no part of the blaze that the
burning oil sustains.
It would be interesting to ece the com
motion that would have been excited over
her there in the temple Itad a heart as
sweet and beautiful as the Lord saw her
heart to be, not been held under the limi
tation* of ungenerous circumstance*, and
had it been within her means to do all that
her heart prompted—in other words, had
