Parties leaving Tlionmsville for the sum mer can have the TiMEs-EsTKnraiss: sent to any address for SO cents per month, dresses can be changed ns often desired. Dr. Joel B. Coyle, of Thomasville, spent Sunday very pleasantly in tins c ity.—Monticcllo Constitution. A committee has, at last, been ap pointed to investigate Tanner. Will it be a white washing affair? ^ cry likely. Bob Lincoln advises l’rince Russell Harrison not to talk too much in England. The Prince finds it difficult to keep his mouth shut. Brady, of Virginia, has “hnrmon- Ited” with the Mahonc faction. And Brady has been given a fat office by Hallison. Put these two things together. Isinety-scven, in the shade, on Wednesday. That was just one degree below the highest point touched last ■ Burner by thc|mcrcury. It slipped up to 98, one bright day in August, of last year. The Brunswick band is prancing around with a chip on its shoulder, daring some other baud to knock it off. They want to blow for $50(1 a side. There appears to lie no good reason why the senate should not concur in the house bill, taxing railroads in the counties through which they pass. Allother property Spays taxes, and why should not. the rnilronds? Atlanta is now trying to hitch the Atlantn and Florida railroad on to the SouthJJBrunswick and Cordelc road. It would seem .that the deal with Col.|Hawkins has fallen through. The bill to tax railroads in the counties through which they pass, passed the house yesterday, hv a vote of 126 to 16. If the hill becomes a law it will add largely to the tax re sources of some counties. The bill ought to pass. Left Out. Dr. Felton has prepared a substi tutc for his original educational hill, in which big tilings were promised to the branch colleges. These arc com pletely ignored anil left out in the last hill. In his new hill lie makes provision for the public schools, for the teeltiiologic.il school, for the girls’ industrial school to he established, the experimental farm, and then he pro vides for a 850,000 appropriation for the State university The appropriations are made upon a calculation of the rental of the State road at the' minimum sunt, 855,(XM) per month, provided by the lease act. This brings in 8120,000 per year. Of this sunt 8150,000 is first covered into the treasury; then 8150,000 goes to the common school fund: Of the remaining 8120,000, the stint of 818,000 goes to the experimental station and farm; 850,000 to the state university, a part of this to go to a state normal school, open to males and females alike; 818,000 lo the technological school, and 818,000 to the Girls’ Industrial school. The bal ance of 816,000 goes hack to the treasury of the state. We hope the friends of the branch colleges will he able to get some state aid. They arc certainly entitled to it. Tltomnsville has deeded to the state, through its-iiniversity, valuable pro ) erty worth not less than twenty five thousand dollars. This should, in all fairness, entitle her to recognition. Here is the way the New York Her aid puts it: “We are certain we voice the sentiment ol this city and state when we announce that white suprem acy prevails here, and by the eternal horn spoons, we intend it shall contin ue prevailing!” The“Fats’’and ‘Leans” of Hawkins- ville, have been playing a match game of base hall. The captain of the Fats, s teet 6 inches high, weighs 275 pounds, while the captain of the Leans, 6 feet 4 inches high, weighs 11a lbs. Blouses and tights were worn. There was a great deal of lun to the square yard. — — — Some time ago Mr. W. B. 'late, of Grainger county, Tennessee, announc ed that he would give one-fifth of Ins fortune to maimed ex-confcdcratc sol diers in East Tennessee. Mr. Tate is a bachelor, and lie had succeeded in accumulating about 81(H),000. The distribution took place a few days ago and forty one-legged and one-armed soldiers rccived 8500 each. No doubt Mr. Tate is satisfied, and the soldiers are grateful.—News. Stranger—Have you any choice lots on hand ? Land-owner—Yes, sir; yes, something fine! The nicest lots that ever laid out doors! There arc two; all improvements, convenient to cars, clear title, etc. They arc choice, but I will make them fifteen hundred for cssh. Stranger—Well, I’m not buying; fm making assessments—did you say fifteen hundred each for these lotsT Land-owner (hastily)—No, oli|, no, for the two! Stranger—Any more choice lots? Land-owneT—That’s all; just about told out. Pears and Melons. The folloning extracts arc taken from Olivctt Bros’, price current of July 20th: Pjcars—Georgia Lc Conte fell heavily during the first half of the week under large receipts: stock cleaning up a little at the close hut prices without quotable recovery, though exceptional lots have in in stances sold a trifle above the prices quoted; some in had order, however, have to go below quotations. Receipts of Bell and other early sorts from near by points arc large, trade very dull and prices weak at the decline noted. Mei .ons.—Receipts of watermelons for the week have been 818 car loads. The arrivals have been unprecedented ly large this week,causing a serious fall in prices and putting the market in cry had shape for all concerned. Much complaint is made of the exor bitant lrcight rates chaigcd by the transportation companies; freight charges on 66 car loads over all rail route, taken at random, ranged from 895 to 8162, with an average of 8129 per car. The charges absorb so large a part af the value of the melons un der heavy receipts that shippers ate sure to lose heavily, and the freight lines arc the only gainers. Ol course the business cannot he carried on freely on this basis. Freight must he reduced or else the production of melons, or shipment to this market, limited to such comparatively small quantities as will keep prices high throughout the season. High Speed on Railroads. There arc many things connected with high speed on railways which tax the ingenuity of locomotive engi neers to the utmost. The lines have to be made strong enough to withstand the heavy blows ol the locomotive, for the portions of the running plant are light in comparison. A railway train at sixty miles an hour may be compared to a huge projectile, and subject to the same laws. The momentum is the product olthe weight ol the train multiplied by the square of the veloc ity in feet per second; and if we allow a train of 120 tons, traveling at sixty miles an hour, then the work re quired to stop it to would he 14,400 foot tons exerted through one minute, or rcarly a* thousand horse power, which gives some idea of its destruct ive lorce if, unhappily, it should come into action; and yet this terrific power is so entirely under command that tl e strength of a child turning the small handle of the vacuutr^brake can bring the train to a standstill in a few sec onds.—Chambers Journal. Latest Telegrams. First Bale in Texas- The Oldest Priest in the United States Dead—Abuses in the Ga., Penitentiary—Candidates for Judge Clarkes Place -No Danger of Yellow Fever Worth County's Fair.

Father Curley, director of George town university, died in this city at 6:20 o’clock this afternoon. He was the oldest living priest in the United States, and, so far as known, in the world. lie was horn in county Ros common, Ireland, in 1796. Tv-Tv, Ga., July 24.—Worth county’s agricultural fair and cattle show was opened to day at I’oulan. The largest crowd of people ever as sembled in this county was there. There are as line exhibits of corn, cotton, melons of all varieties, grapes, peaches, etc., as was ever seen in the state. A watermelon grown by W. A. Mcl’haul, weighed eighty-two and everything was ns fine in each line. Worth is 11 fine county, and her citizens are justly proud of her many resources. Ati.anta, July 24.—The members of the penitentiary committee have made some startling discoveries of abuse of convicts at the Chattahoo chee camp, and will lay ‘them before the Govoruor to-morrow and request an investigation. Capt. English made a demand at the penitentiary office to-day for an immediate investi gation, and it is likely that one will bo ordered. Four candidates arc announced t<}- day for the judgeship of the Pataula circuit to succeed Judge Clark. They are: William Ilarrison, of Quitman, ,J. H. Gucrry, of Terrell, R. II. l’owcll and J. J). Rnmbnu. of Fort Gaines. It is reported here to night that the passenger and freight depots at Salt Springs were destroyed by fire to-day. Washington, July 24.—Speaking of the possibility of a yellow fever out break this year, Dr. Hamilton, sur geon general of the marine hospital service, said to-day that up to the present time lie had not received even an intimation of any suspicious cases the yellow fever district, although the officers of the marine hospital ser vice were nutlet instructions to keep a sharp loo-kout for the appearance of fever. It was July 28tli that the first cas* of yellow lever was reported to him last year. There is, however, said Dr. Hamilton, less danger of an epidemic at Jacksonville than ever before, owing to the thoroughness of the inspection there, and to the fact that every article from which fever might be germinated lias cither been burned or fumigated. Pittsburg, I’a.,'July 23.—A special from l’atkcrsburg, W. Va., says: "In the flooded district the waters have subsided and farmers can now see where they stand. Many have lost their all and will be compelled to ask charity. It is now known that eigh teen persons lost their lives by the flood. There may have been othe r drownings in Jackson county. All the bodies have been found hut two. Six good iron bridges went out, besides many wooden ones, in this county. At Morristown thirteen houses wera swept away, besides many others in that neighborhood, and much suffering is the result. In Braxton county the soil was washed on low lands lo a depth of six feet. The county commissioners returned from a tour ol inspection of the condition of the counry to-day, and find the loss in bridges to be about $25,000. Many farmers are unable lo pay taxes this year. The loss in this county will reach $50,000. PIMPLES TO SCROFULAR. A Positive Cure for Every Skin, Scalp and Blood Diseaso except Ichthyosis. P»orJn«ls ft Vnnnt.
