The Ruinous Cigarette,
The Constitution was asked the
other day by a correspondent to give
some lads showing that cigarettes are
injurious.. We coudense the following
from the reply:
Experts say that a very low grade of
tobacco is put in the cigarette, and
its continued use impairs digestion and
the mental faculties. Epilepsy, in-
soniia, insanity and the liquor habit
are all brought on by the cigarette.
Several boy cigarette smokers in Rich
mond were sent to the insane asylum
last year. A boy in New York smok-
ca cigarette until he murdered a com
panion. He cared nothing about his
crime or his trial. All that he wanted
was more cigarettes. A youth in
Buffalo cut his throat, and then puffed
a cigarette while the life blood oozed
from the fatal gash. Several boys in
New England have recently died of
catarrhal pneumonia caused by this
habit. The records show in New
York in the past year nearly a dozen
cases of suicide, known to have been
caused by the excessive use of cigar
ettes. The names, dates and circum
stances were given not long since in
the Evening Sun.
A and yet youjwill see boys, mere
striplings puffing and inhaling the dead
ly fumes of the cigarette, everyday.
Will not parents make some effort to
save their boys ? Some do not appear
to care. Strange.
Railroad News.
Anything touching the construction
of roads leading toward Thomisville
is read with eager interect here, l he
following from the Augusta Chronicle
of Tuly ist, will be read with interest:
There will be an important meeting
of those interested in the Augusta and
West Florida railroad some day this
week. Col. Bailey is expected here
and the result of this conference is
promised to be of a most interesting
nature to alt friends of the road.
There is a delightful breeziness
about certain railroad talks that insure
great activity in these fields in the fall
if not eailier.
The Augusta and Chattanooga is
assuming phase in plans that must be
pleasant to Angusta. It comes pretty
straight that they are more interested
in Chattanooga than we are here over
this road’s building.
Hie next sensation promised is a
combination through which the Augus
ta and West Florida will secure a con
nection to the north.
■v, A Word For Turner.
Speaking of the rumor that the alii
ancemen o the and district, would an
tagonize Hon. H. G. Turner, for con
gress. the Constitution says.
It is sincerely hoped that tho alii
ance will not antagonize Mr. Turner.
He is a true friend to the farmer, and
even if an allianceman should oppose
him, his opponent would not be a tru«
er friend to the alliance or to the farm
er than he.
The sub-treasury bill is not strictly
an alliance measure, and the alliance
as an organization does not endorse it.
It is to be hoped that this body will
not quibble with such a faithful, hon
est and conscientious representative as
Henry G. Turner on so small a matter.
Coining Money at Amencus.
Amrisicus, Ga., July 2.—The
stockholders of liic Ainericus Invest
ment Company held their annual
meeting to day and selected II. C,
Bagley as president and W. E. Haw
kins as secretary and treasurer. The
company was organized three years
ago with a capital stock of $150,000.
The first year it was increased to
8200,000, and the second year to
$500,000. To-day is was resolved to
increase the stock to $r,000,000 as
soon as an amendment to the chartet
is obtained authorizing it. Several
dividends oflrom 10 to 25 per cent,
in cash have been paid. For some
months the stock has been worth $325.
To day a dividend of 100 por cent,
was declared, payable in money or
stock, at the option of the stockholders
Some of the newly issued stock sold
this alternoon for £200, which is $400
for stock issued before to day’s divi
dend.
What Anicricus has done, nnd is
doing, Thomasville might have done,
The capital is here ; hut no effort has
been made 10 organize and concen
trate it. It is not 100 late for the
town to move yet. The Times-Enter-
1’risf. has, for years, urged the im-
portauce, nay the necessity, of the
capitalists of the place taking some
steps toward combining and utilizing
the capital of the place.
Do You Know of Such A Boy ?
The American Teacher is in search
of" a boy, and it thus describes the lad
it wants:
Wanted—A Boy.—A brave, cour-
ageous, manly, hopeful boy; one who
is not afrain of the tiuth; one who
scorns a lie; one who hates deceit; one
who loves his mother; one who does
not know more than his parents; one
who has the courage so say no, and
stick to it; one who is willing to begin
at the bottom of the ladder and work
upward; one who thinks it would be
unmanly to smoke; one who thinks an
education is >vorth striving for; one who
is willing to obey his superiors, one
who knows hishome is L>ctter than the
street; one who doesn't believe the
marvelous tales told in the story pa
pers, and will not read the vile stuff;
one who won’t cheat in a fair game;
one who won’t be a sneak, aI, d do a
mean act when unseen; one "’bo won t
spend every penny he earns or Bets ;
one who thinks he should respect him
self and keep himself in decent ap
pearance ; one who won’t attack an
old man because he i3 feeble and de
fenseless ; one who won’t torture dumb
animals; one who won’t steal; one
who won’t swear; one who won’t listen
to or repeat nasty stories ; one who
won’t revile and jeer at drunken per
sons on the street; one who won't do
a dirty act icr another boy, who is too
cowardly to his own meanness; one who
loves to do right because it is right.
Wanted—a boy, a whole-souled, ear
nest, honorable, square boy. Where
can he be found ? Docs he live in
your neighborhood ? Is he a member
of your family? Do you know him?
We hope there arc a number of
boys in Thomasville, who would fill
the bill. Manly, brave, persevering,
honest boys, is what the world wants.
An Indian Squnw’s Revenge.
A dispatch from Standing Rock
Agency, South Dakota, says :
Rain-in-the-Eace, the noted Sioux
chief, ranking next to Sitting Bull in
renown, and made prominent through
his connection with the Custer massa
cre, is lying here dangerously wounded.
Unless a change tor the better soon
takes place, he must die. The Indians
at the agency are gieatiy excited, and
tronble may follow.
The chief was stabbed in the chest
and side two days ago by his squaw,
a handsome young woman, whom he
had neglected for another young wo
man. She is now under arrest.
Jealousy, whether it burns neath the
tawny breast ol the savage woman or
flares up in the breast ol the refined
pale face is the same. It says: Thou
shalt have no other woman before me.
Times Changes.
Three sheriff*, from three Georgia
counties, met at the depot in Milledge-
ville last Thursday night, each having
in charge a negro woman destined tor
the luuatic asylum. Didn’t use to be
so in slavery times, observes the Union
and Recorder. Religious fanaticism
and starvation are running the negro
women crazy, and John Barleycorn
looks afiet the negro men.—Augusta
Chronicle.
Yes, times have changed. Thr. old
time darkey, careless aud happy as
the day was long, has about passed
away.
The Savannah Time? denounces
Mr. Porter’s count, and demands that
the city fathers get up on enumera
tion of their own. Other cities arc
kicking quite as lustily as Savannah.
Woman to Take a Hand.
The following resolution was adopt
ed by the National Committee of the
Worlds Fair at a meeting held in Chi
cago on Tuesday:
Resolved, That a board of lady
managers be constituted, consisting of
one delegate and alternate from each
state, to be recommended by the state
commissioners and appointed by the
president, to be known as the woman’s
department of the World’s Columbian
Exposition.
And this reminds us I What would
this country have been without wo
men ? In the language of Clay, Web
ster and Calhoun. “No vthere!” Then
make way for woman. Give her
showing in Chicago.
The theory of the scientists that the
sun is losing its heat, has been thor
oughly disproved during the last week.
Recent developments would indicate
that things are warming up, rather
than cooling off.
The Men Who Rode With Lee And
Jack8on.
Col. Alfred Aldrich, of Barnwell,
was in the city yesterday on his way
to Savannah. Speaking of the South
Carolina campaign, he says that Capt.
Tillman has made many errors, but
the gravest was made in his speech at
Aiken, where he sends the Confederate
soldier to the rear. He refers to that
portion of Capt. Tillman’s speech, in
which he says: “If there be those who
think the men that rode with Lee and
Soncwall Jackson should be kept for
ward forever, there are those who do
not agree with them.” In the judg
ment of Col. Alfred Aldrich “this poli
cy ol Capt. Tillman's is too previous
by at least a decade. Belisarius is
not yet begging for an obolus. The
day should never come when the man-
hood of the South should turn its back
upon the men who carried their lives
in their hands while riding with Lee
and Stonewall Jackson.”—Augusta
Chronicle.
