RELATING TO QUANTRELL
VJho Has
ft
Funerals,
An Unfortunate Man Who I
Lived a Life of Sorrow and
Quantrell is dead! The popular
bushwhacker has lit cut. For ihe
fifteenth time in ten years this unfor
tunate guerilla lias passed through
death’s portals.
Fifteen times he lias had a warm
personal interview with Old Nick,
reappearing time after time, only to
pass away in some romantic manner,
He has been a man of many identi
ties. In Texas he has died three
times, once as a tall, slender man with
steel blue eyes and fierce red mus
tache; twice as a bearded, burly man,
weighing between aoo and 300 pounds,
Mr. Quantrell has deftly given up the
ghost in Missouri at least seven times,
It is told of he and Mr. J. James,
also of Missouri, that 'hey once made
.a wager on who could die the ofiener
in one week. The wager was won by
Mr. Quantrell, he becoming a lemains
nine times within that space, ,'hile
Mr. J. James was killed only seven
times, though seriously wounded twice,
It is sad to think that these poor men,
who only killed folks when they
thought the population excessive,
should have to pass through life as
subjects for continual funerals. It is
interesting to learn that the plank
required to bury Mr. Quantrell, if laid
in a straight line, would reach from
Sheffield to Gum-chooch-on-the Yang-
tse-Kiang.
We might go on for centuries giv
ing interesting statistics about Mr.
Quantrell’s burial; we might say that
if the excavating done on his many
graves had been done in the DeLes-
seps canal, the Isthmus of Panama
would now be a legend.
It grieves the local editor when he
realizes that he isn’t the only one by
some fifty who has written an obituary
of Mr. Quantrell, and he feels a com
passion lor the many poor newspaper
men who have studied for hours trying
to think of something good to say
about the gentleman besides his
bravery. The public may now rest
assured that this strange character is
bona fide "stiff.” If he died in
Birmingham he’s all rght; he will
stay dead. No man has ever died in
Birmingham and come to life again,- -

B. D. FUDGE,
At the wild Western town of Bodie,
a few years ago, if we are to beiieve a
San Francisco correspondent, when a
man was shot the chances were he
was allowed to lie just where he fell, to
be muddled up by passing stages and
stray mules. Now such is the improv
ed tone of public opinion that even the
most ignorant shooter hangs the corpse
over some fence, where its friends can
readily find it, and not a few even drop
a "postal card to the widow. Thus
doth civilization march forward in the
Woolly West.
Machen’s new Road.
Madison, Ga., Oct. 8.—All is rail
road talk in this city to-night. Col.
Machen was in the city to.day, and
laid a proposition before the mayor
and council by which Madison may
secure terminal rates and another line
to the seacoast, a direct line to New
York and open communication with
the great West. Machen proposes to
build from Newborn, on the Middle
Georgia and Atlantic, to Madison, a
distance of sixteen miles, with a prob
ability of building on to Washington,
Ga. Washington has already propos
ed to Machen to raise $50,000 if he
will build to that city, and Machen
wants Morgan county to raise $10,000
as. her part. The Georgia Midland
proposes to build to Newborn, which
will give us direct communication with
the great West.
At Washington we strike the Au
gusta ond Knoxville. The Plant sys
tem will also build from some point
inJSoutfi Carolina to Washington, and
thus Madison will be placed in direct
communication with New York. At
lanta and Augusta will be brought fif
teen miles closer together by this
scheme, while Madison will be ten
miles nearer Atlanta, and the distance
between Savannah and Augusta sbor-
tened.
Dyeing Roses.
It is said that the process of dyeing
roses is becoming a remunerative
branch 0/ industry with English hor
ticulturists. Instead of growing new
varieties of roses, which is. a process
of years, they simply grow ordinary
white roses and dip them in a chemi
cal solution which in a single hour
converts them into the most magnifi
cent yellow tea roses, the rare scarlet
red or the peculiar shade of bluish
violet which has been one of the fa
vorites of the season. In a similar
way pink roses are turned into bios
soms of the deepest red. Some years
ago, before this branch of "floral
chemistry” was developed, the first
experiments were successfully mad*
in France with the popular pink hor-
ttnsia, which, by being watered with
a solution ol iron, assumed a blue
shade.—London Letter.
90 in the Shade-
Cincinnati, Oct. 13.—Yesterday
was an extraordinary day here. It
seemed as if n hot cloud hovered
about the city. The heat was op
pressive and the thermometer regis
tered 90 in%ie shade. Two pros
trations from heat were reported dur
ing the day.
This high temperature is all the
more remarkable from the fact that
it has been so cold for the past fort
night that fires were .indisputable.
The beat disappeared in the afternoon
as suddenly as it came.
Much Suffering in Ireland.
London, Oct. 13.—A newspaper
correspondent, who bos just returned
from a trip along the coast of Ireland,
says there will be no famine but a
poor crop of potatoes, and that there
is much suffering to come.
A Double Victim.
In Justice Brodwell’s court the
other day a woman was fined $15 for
kissing a dtfde. Why sbonld she
thna be punished twice?—Chicago
