Near Its End.
Chicago, Nov. 23.—No further evi
dence was heard in the Cronin Case
to day. At the opening of the court
Mr. Forrest announced that his ex
pected witness, Mr. Lynch, had had
relapse, and he had decided to get
along without his evidence. As there
were no further witnesses present, the
court adjourned with the understand
ing that the defense would examine
one or two minor witnesses, and would
then close its case.
From Blizzard to Sunshine.
Augusta, Ga., Nov. 23.—A spe
cial to the Chronicle from Knoxville,
Tenn., says: “The Queen and Crcs
cent and East Tennessee, Virginia
and Georgia roads have inaugurated
a Florida special vestibule train, run
ning solid from Cincinnati to Jack
sonville, via Chattanooga, Atlaota,
Macon and Jesup, in twenty-eight
hours. This is the first solid train
from the west to the south ever run.
It will commence to-morrow.
Corn Cheaper than Coal.
Kansas City, Mo., Nov. 23.—
A special from Hiawatha, Kan., says
that the farmers of that vicinity are
burning corn for fuel, finding it
cheaper than coal. Corn is sold on
the farm at 20 cents per bushel, while
the average price of coal, delivered at
the farm, ranges at from 21 to 23
cents per bushel. The farmers’ alli
ance here brought the attention of
the farmers to the relative prices of
the two commodities, and advised that
half the corn crop be used as fuel,
thus advancing the price of the other
half, and saving money in this fuel
bills. The farmers have begun to act
on this advice. . ’
Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 23.—The
contract for building the confederate
home was awarded to day to Austin

being 822,000. The contractors gave
a bond for 810,000, and will begin
work immediately.

A. J. DeVoe, the weather prophet
of New Jersey, informs the New Or

Hon. Geo. T. Barnes, of Augusta
has addressed an open letter to his
constituents, in which he discusses the
tariff and other economic questions.
The Chronicle intimates that it is

will be sustained by the democracy of
the state and of his district all the
same. The charge that the democrat
ic party is a free trade party will not
hold good. The protectionists will

are overcrowded. The boys arc too

The New United .States.
Washington, Nov. 24.— Senor
Valente, the Brazilian minister, this
afternoon received the following impor
tant cablegram, which shows that the
republic has been accepted by all the
provinces of Brazil:
Rio de Janeiro, Nov. 23, 1889.
I inform you that all the provinces
have signified their adherence to the'
republic and the provincial govern
ment, without any resistance or pro
test, The government has extended
the right to vote to all citizens, except
only those who are unable to read or
write. The arohbfshopship, ihe head
of the church in Brazil, has conferred
to-day his solemn benediction upon
the government and the people.
Ruy'Barboza,
Minister of Finace.
Proclamation- .Jp
God has crowned, the year with IJis
goodness, and has granted to the ptjO-,
pie of this state, for the last twelve
months, peace, plenty and prosperity.
Theretore, I, John B. Gordon, govern
ance with custom and in recognition
ot our obligation to Him for all His
mercies and of our absolute depend*^
ence upon Hmi for their continuance,
do issue this, my proclamation, de
signating Thursday next, the 28th day
nishes us with the above, as a specimen of November, 1889, as a day of
of how they do things out in the wild
west.
Mr. Benson, we greet you; you
should apply for a position on some
newspaper. A few paragraphs like
the above would put you high up
the ladder of journalistic fame. We
presume Mr. Benson’s hired man, or
some member of his household, saw
the performance. It might be well
for the gentleman to produce an affi
davit from these parties, testifying to
the correctness of-the story; not nec
essarily for publication, but as an evi
deuce of good faith—in his own story
You see, some peopleware rather skep
deal. We would say nothing which
could be considered disparaging to
Mr. Benson’s^veracity, as, in common
with many, both north and south, we
are anxious to see kindly relations re
stored between the two sections, but
when a man Irom the north claims to
have mowed off the beads of 134
ducks—while stuck in the ice—with a
corn cutter, as a southern man, wed
ded to the truth, and jealous of the
reputation of the press, we insist that
accompanying documentary evidence,
properly certified by some notary pub
lic, should be attached to ail such
stories. It matters’little to us whether
Mr. BeDSon is a democrat, a mug
wump or a republican; whether he
voted for Harrison or Cleveland;
whether he believes the earth is round
or flat; whether he sides with the Czar
against Btsmark; whether he is ortho
dox or infidel; whether he is in favor
of Chicago, St. Louis, Washington or
New York, as a site for the world’s
fair; whether be is hen pecked or
wears the breeches; what we waut and
demand, is a certificate from his Sun
day school teacher, as to his character
for vewity.;. He rnay be all right; we
do not say that he is-not, but we feel
it a bounden duty to protect the read
ers of the Times-Enterprisb against
imposition. This we shall do at all
hazards, even at the risk of re-opening
the healing wounds of the war between
the north and south, on account of
ihie "remarkable duck story.”
No northern man shall, with irapu
nity, circulate such a duck story in
the south, without corroborative evi-
dence.
thanksgiving to almighty God.
In the meantime 1 earnestly recom
mend the people to seek forgiveness
for their manifold sins by humble
confession and sincere penitence, and
the designated day to gather about
their family altars and at their accus
tomed places of worship to offer
thanks to God with gladness and re
joicing; and there consecrate the day
to His service by devoting it to His
worship, and to acts of kindness and
of charity to some of His children who
may be unfortunate or unhappy.
