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 & Boylston, lumber dealers, the price being 822,000.

Fairbault, Minn., Nov. 14.—A re markable slaughter of wild fowl oc curred north of this city this morning John Benson, a farmer, went to a small lake to water his stock, and to his as tonishment discovered a large number icr day. 0 f ducks vainly endeavoring to extri- , . ----jui "rresiueni Harrison is very rapidly themselves from the ice, which or 0 f t h e state of Georgia, in accord- making a’statesman out of Mr, Hayes’’ had formed around them while resting :.u — ..j i„ ».n,niiinii the previous night.

If this thing is not nipped in the bud the number of red headed women will far exceed the supply of horses.—Ex. America is the youngest nation on the globe, but it has set the pace for the whole world. This country is fast leaving the efiete monarchies of the old world in the great race of pro gress. America beats the world. We have more electricity, better railroads, faster horses and prettier women, than any nation on earth. A. J. DeVoe, the weather prophet of New Jersey, informs the New Or leans Times-Democrat that the winter of 1889 aifd 1890 will be remarkable three things: 1 Intensely cold; jraiibri with heavy sndfrin the Gulf States. 2. Very mild weathcij throughout Canada and the east. 3.' Floods in the New England states from the‘5th to the 10th of December. 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 free trade document. But G.T. Barnes 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 move heaven and earth to defeat all tariff reformers. Governor Gordon’s speech at the state fair advises young men to stick to the farm. Yes, so we say; other occu pations are good and useiul, but they are overcrowded. The boys arc too anxious to leave the farm, thinking iri unmanly and not aristocratic enough but who would not rather be a strong, sturdy, rosy-cheeked country boy over flowing with good health and spirits, than a pale, spiritless clerk in the dark, . dreary city stores? Stick to the farm, boys, you can gam more health aud wealth by so doing, and be just as '1 of a gentleman as though you itown. Passenger Train Held Up. Kansas City, Mo, Nov. *4—A north-bound passenger train on the Thomasville, G-a. 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.
