The Brunswick Times says that
Hon. Thomas M. Norwood will soon
renounce his allegiance to Georgia
and become a citizen of Washington,
the nation’s capital. It is his purpose
to practice law in his new home.
The shutting off of the electric
lights in New York, opens up a lively
business for the foot pads and pick
pockets, who infest that city. May
or Grant’s edict has gone forth : the
wires must be put under the ground.
And there they should go.
The Olive bill died yesterday on
time, as The Chronicle predicted. It
died quietly and peacefully, without
undue struggle. It died as all such
measures ought to die, beyond hope
of reconsideration or recall.—Augus
ta Chronicle.
No republican has yet been found
hardened and brave enough to step
into Tanner s shoes. Harrison is in
a dilemma. About all his relatives
have been appointed to office, and
now he has to chase all around the
country, begging some one to take
Tanner's place.
A man named Perry, an Indiauian
is loudly complaining of bad treat
ment by the administration, in not
rewarding him according to his work
for the party. He claims that he
took 7,000 negroes from South Caro
lina and voted them in Indiana in
1880.
Tim Perils of Progress. ; LATEST TELEGRAPHIC NEWS.
Since Mr. Edison has declared lhat!
no insulation will make an electric wire
safe, people have been in a flurry of
excitement over the matter. In New
York the recent horrible death of a
lineman who came in contact with a
defectively insulated wire caused a
thrill of nervous terror to run through
the entire metropolis, and thousands
of people would now be willing to see
the whole system of electric lights and
street cars wiped out.
It goes without saying that this
spasm cf apprehension is only tempo
rary. Progress has its perils, but we
must have progress all the same. Elec
tricity is a wonderful laboi saving fac
tor. It adds materially to our com
fort, and ifit sometimes destroys life
and property, we are not likely to
abandon it on that account. Steam
boilers occasionally burst and kill pec
pie, but nobody proposes to give up
steam as a motive power. Every
effort is made to insure reasonable safe
ty, and that is all that can be expected.
The dangers lurking in electric wires
will be guarded against, and human
ingenuity will exert itself to discover a
safe method of insulation, but we are
not going to give up our electrical
improvements simply because they kill
a few people every year. Fatal acci
dents on the railroads have not
resulted in a general movement to
prohibit their operation. We tolerate
tiieir drawbacks because they have ne
cessities, and for the same reason it is
safe to say that the electric light wires
have come to stay.
This agitation, however,* will do
good. It will make the electric com
panies and the people more careful.
This in itself will be a positive gain.—
Constitution.
Nearly everybody abuses the postal
card, but nearly everybody uses it.
At the stamp windows in the New
York Postoffiee there is a constant
call for them, and all classes unite in
making the demand. The chief
complaint against them, the postal'
clerks say, has been on the ground of
Bize. The way some people cross and
recross their lines is quite a study.
For years there has been a demand
for a larger card, and now the depart
ment is going to grant it. The new
card is to be considerably larger than
any yet issued, and will, the Graphic
thinks, lead to an increase in sales,
It is also a pleasanter and lighter
shade, and a great deal smoother to
write on.
‘‘Helen Denarre.” ’
A chaste, choice and interesting
Btory, with the above title, appears in
the last issue of the Old Homestead
published by Davis Bro’s, .Savannah,
It is from the pen of a talented young
lady in Thomasvillc, whose modesty
would hide her merits and real name
from the public. The story contains
four chapters and is both interesting
and cleverly written. The first chap
ter will appear in to-morrows Times-
Esterpki.sk. Read it. It is home
talent.
They Have Swarmed.
The Augusta Chronicle says:
“The White House was lately
swarming with ants. Now it is infes
ted with rats. It is about time that
the rats had deserted the Harrison
administration.’’
Yes, and it is swarming, not only
with the ants, but with Ancles, cousins,
sisters, brothers, father-in-law, and
various grades of brevet kinsfolk.
The White House is a veritable hive
for the Harrison family, of both high
and low degree.
The Postal Card’s Birthday.
From the London Echo:
The postal card, called in England
a “post card," and on the continent a
correspondence card,” celebrated
its twentieth birthday on the 25th ot
last month. Prussia suggested it four
years earlier, but Austria began it.
America took it up in 1873, and by
1878 its use was universal. During
the Franco-German war they were is
sued free to the German soldiers in
the field, and sold five for a cent to
their families at home.

Chicago, Oct. 17.—A dispatch
from Columbus, O., says: “Mayor
Hunt, of Sandusky, O., has telegraph
ed the state board of health in regard
to the small-pox ravages at Pelee Is-
laud, a famous fishing resort in Lake
Erie. The dispatch says the wildest
excitement exists. Over 100 cases of
small pox have developed there with
in the last four days. The island has
about 1,000 population, every one of
whom, it is feared, will contract the
disease.
The State Fair.
Macon, Ga., Oct. 16.—The success
of the state fair is assured. Nearly every
department is filled to overflowing
with entries. Secretary Nisbet said
to-day that he has had long experience
with state fairs, but never has he seen
such bright prospects for an exhibition
and declared that all the indications
point to the greatest state lair ever
held in Georgia. Some of the de
partments w 11 be. unusually fine, es-
pecially those of cattle, poultry and
horses. The fine arts and needlework
departments will be unusually elabo
rate. Letters from all sections of the
state show that the attendance will be
very lage indeed. Invitations have
been forwarded to the house and
senate, inviting the legislature to be
present on the opening day. A simi
lar invitatton was extended to Governor
Gordon.
Eye fo r an Eye, a Tooth for

From the Brooklyn Engle.
The whipping post is regarded as a
relic of barbarism. Yet it is impossible
not to have a certain kindly feeling
for it when the subject ot its discipline
is a wife beater—as happened yester
day in Baltimore.
Ihe Bainbridge Democrat.
This sterling weekly paper, always
one of the best in the state, comes to
us this week under a new head, or
rather under two new heads, for its
founde*, Mr. Ben E. Russell, appears
as sole editor and proprietor. Ben
Russell ranks among the foremost and
most forcible writers on the Georgia
press. He is a democrat of democrats,
and is always in the front ranks where
the hardest fighting is to be done. No
man In Georgia, has served his party
or people with greater zeal
fidelity. Especially should the people
of Bainbridge and Decatur county
honor him and appreciate his services,
for he has been as true as steel to
every enterprise, every scheme calcu
lated to benefit and build up th^t im-
• mediate section, Mr. Russell deserves
well of bis constituents.
Gov. Perry’s Last Sleep.
Pensacola, Fla., Oct. 17.—The

with Masonic and Episcopalian rites

yet. The committee in charge will
probably decide to have two sets of
pall-bearers, oue active and the other
honorary. The Third battalion of
Florida state troops, commanded by
Maj. W. F. Williams, and consisting
of three infantry companies, one of
which is located at Milton, has been
ordered to attend in full dress uni
form.

Florida’s Prizes at Paris.
Jacksonville, Fla., Oct. 17.—The
Times-Union’s special correspondent
at the Paris exposition cables that
Florida has received twenty awards on
its exhibits, including four gold med
als. Two of the latter are known to
be on sea island cotton and cigars.
The Right Dish for the Day.
It may be objected to an October
thanksgiving that the turkey gobler’s
comb has u&t yet taken on a healthy
crimson nor lias the cranberry beep
dyed in its appetizing gruel. This,
however, can be remedied.
The o’possum is here. As the
turkey is the thankegjyjng bird in
wealthy New England, so the mar
supial is its prototype in Georgia.
The 'possum, as we have been accus
tomed to call him familiarly, }s the
child of nature, Ho hag the freedom
of the woods. He is no pampered
barn yard pet, fattened for occasion,
Who hunger for him must hunt him
with ax, and hound, and flambeau—
meet him on his own ground in night
time. He never goes abroad until
the frost purples the persimmon’s taco.
He masts to the queen’s taste, and
when he comes on table, brown in a
nest of warm potatoes, with an apple
in his mouth, he make; 3 dish fit to
lay before the king.
The ’possum is the thanksgiying
“bird” foy Georgia.—Augusta Chron
icle.
The Wideawake and Christian Un
ion are conducting a crusade against

object.
Cured by Cuticura.
I am cured of a loathsome disease, eczema, in
its worst stage. I tried different doctors and
been through the hospital, but all to no pur
pose. The disease covered my whole body from
the ton of my head to the soles of my leet. My
hair all came out, leaving mo a complete raw
■ore. After trying everything I heard of your
Cuticura Remedies, and after using three bot
tles of Cuticura Resolvent, with Cuticura and
Cuticura Soap, I find myself cured at the cost
of about $6. I wpuld not be without the Cuti

ful in many cases, and I think they are the only

Burning and Itching.
I was sick in the fall of 1888 with a burning
aad Itching so bad that in three weeks 1 was
covered with a rash, and could not sleep nights
or work days.' Somo doctors thought it might
be salt rheum (eczema), and said they had nev
er seen anything like it before. I received no
help frpro anj pr them, or from any medicine
that I could get hold of untp I tried your Cutl-
cura'Remedfes. After three weeks' use I was
able to work, and kept getting better, until I
am now entirely cured. I recommend them to
all suffering with skin diseases.
