“They have made them Rods of gold.”
—Ex. 82:31.
When Moses moaned ont these words
before the Lord, he thought he was
describing one particular sill of the
people lie loved. Would God it had
been no wider and deeper than that!
Alas! The |>eople have gone right on
for now thirty-five centuries, still
making them “Gods of Gold ”
Aud their god of gold turned out to
be—a calf! We can but wonder if
Moses saw the.grim humor of it.
An outside Are burned down the
golden calf of the Aucieuts. Its wor
shipers saw it ground to powder before
their eyes. I^or was that the last of it.
The gold was mingled with their food.
They had to drink the nauseous stuff
aud their children had to drink it. Oh.
Moderns, beware!
Bur, supjKJse we ourselves should
burn dowu our god of gold?
There was a church member once
who had such a god. One day he sud
denly perceived (hut it was, after all,
only a calf! A mighty resolve canto to
him—au impulse—an inspiration—
straight from Jehovah. He didn’t
wuit to have his calf burned down by
others and strewed iu bitter doses in
his daily bread. He melted it down
himself and turned it into—a deaconess
KOiug about telling of Jesus aud His
love, not only while the man lived, but
forever! Just as long as the saving
story shall need to be told Do you
want to know jast how he did it.

BITE OF'A NEGRO
v KILLS ANOTHER.
Friday moroiug, Manor Booker, a
young colored man, aged about 20 years
died from blood poisoning. It is sup-
IKise.d that the decease was caused by
the bite of aunthnr negro, Howard
Bowie, about the same age.
On Easter Sunday the two boys
engaged in what was at first a good
nntured scuttle. In tho tussle Bowie
it is said, became angry and bit Booker
oil the hand, crushing the thumb aud
joint, Au a result blood poisou-
mg set iu. Booker lived until early
Friday morning, aud then passed
away.
Bowie is a well known character in
town hliaving worked for several press-,
ing clubs. He could not be found Fri
day aud it is reported that he has
left town. No attempt was made to
arrest him hut since Booker's death it
s posSiblo that the officers will go after
dm, should a warrent bo sworn out
barging him witli causing tbo demise.
Dr. Jarrell was asked by a limes*
Enterprise man, it thqye was any truth
iu the old saying about the b’te of a
blue gum nigger’’ being fatinl. Me
said that the poisoniug was a result of
the filth in the negro's ti-otli, that it
makes no difference whether his gums
were red or blue, if Ins teeth were
filthy poisoning comes. The roi»ort was
of coarse circulated that Bowie is a
blue gum nigger.”

At tlie meeting of the Georgia rail
road commission now iu session in
Atlantf, a new schedule of freight rates
was promulgated by which Thomasville
will profit. Almost every lino of busi
ness gets the benefit of a lower rate
from Atlanta and Savannah. Tlie rates
aro tho most advantageous ever enjoyed
by Georgia cities.
The now rates appear in the form of
tables, the preparation of which requir
ed days and weeks of study, calculation
aud work. It will bo possible, there
fore, to give only a few instances which
will indicate the nature of reductions
made. The reductions made can ouly
bo shown by a comparison of tlie new
ami the old rates, and for this purpose
tlie best indication can be given by
lompariHon of tho rates on first-class
freight, iu which the reductions are
greatest. A proportionate reduction
has likewise been made on every other
■lass and on many commodities, as
stated.
From Atlanta to Thomasville, tho old
rate was 91, and the new is 85.
Material reduction for Thomasville
has lieoii made on the following entumo
dities: Agricultural implements, ale
aud beer, [ginger nie, box aud barrel
material, paper boxes, building mater
ial, canned goods. crackers and cakes,
fertilizers, ice, iron, kettles, lime, live
stock, oat meal, oranges, plaster, plow’s,
rails, flash weight*, soap, stoves, hollow
ware, tar, cotton ties, paving tile and
wagons.
It will ho uotod that tho foregoing re
ductions vary from 2 to 24 cents por 100
pounds which on n carload of 40.000
pounds of first-cla>-H freight means re
ductions of $8 to $96 |)er carload.
The old rate from Savannah to Thom-
ville on first class goods was 69 cent*
por hundred pouuds- The new rute is
66 cents. Valdosta, Cordele Quitman,
Tifton and Baiubridge get a similar
rato froin|Savunnah. fi
Tho foiogoiog reductions apply to all
effuses of freight tho reductions for the
classes below class 1 being in propor
tion to the reductions made in this class.
It may be said t his will aud tho con
test over intrastate lines except as to
certain minor feaures already noted.
The reductions given will mean the
saving of tlionoabds of dollars anuually
to the merchants and the manufacturers
of Georgia.
Tho redactions in commodity rates
apply particularly on manufactured ar
ticles and raw materials, and these aro
nu de from the cities und towns which
make such articles or sapply the mate
rials in question.
These new rates will go into cffoct ai
soon as the tariffs can be published aud
distributed, which will be within the
next ton duys.

InthofM Who Met TerrlbU
Because of Thoir Writings/
In 1859 an Austrian pamphleteer
named Tell:I was shot it Orate for
writing und publishing a book reflect-
ing on the good faith of Count Bool,
tlie foreign minister. Tbo work in.
published ut 9 o'clock In tbo morning;
at lu It was ordered to bo suppressed,
half an hour later tho unhappy author
was being tried by drumhead court
martial, und before noon be had been
pronounced guilty and executed.
Napoleon gave equally short thrift to
writers who offended him, shooting
some nnd banging others with scarcely
even the form of trial. One of tho
most notorious of these judicial mur-'
dors wus that perpetrated at tha ex
pense of poor I-alm, a Nurnbcrg pub
lisher. who was shot because be te-
fused to give up the name of the au
thor of a book attacking the usurper.
Later the Bourbons bad troublesome
authors quietly “removed" by hired
assassins. After this fashion died the
girted Paul Courier, whose foul murder
on April 10. 1825, aroused to fury ell
lovers of liberty.
Edward Kelly, the friend end cham
pion of Dr. Dee, had bis ears cut off at
Manchester for writing In defense of
that notorious magician.
Daniel Defoe narrowly escaped a
similar fate for his “Short Way With
tho Dissenters,” and, ns It was, he was
three times stood In the pillory besides
suffering nil the horrors then Incidental
to n long Imprisonment In Newgate. -
Urban Grnndler l>eeattao be offended
the mighty Richelieu in a book entitled
The Hhoemnkcr of Loudun’’ was burn
ed alive.
Slnion Morin In 1847 published at
Unrls a little work called "Thoughts."
For so doing he was sentenced to per
form public pennnee In his shirt, with
a rope round his neck and a torch In
his hand. Afterward he and his bool^
were burned together and tha aabea
thrown Into tho air.
Tlie similar punishment meted out
to Scrvotus nt Geneva because of hli
hook "On the Restitution of Christiani
ty" Is historical. By a refinement of
cruelty the brow of the unhappy author
was adorned with a crown of straw
sprinkled with brimstone, and how,
moist fagots wero purposely need la
order to prolong his sufferings.
Antonlus PnleariusJ an Italian an-
thor of the sixteenth century, had tha
nudaetty to write a book attacking the
Inquisition. He was sentenced to be
‘lmnged, strangled and burtML" Jor-
dnne Bruno, tlie friend of Sir Philip
Sidney, was punished In like manner
for having written a book entitled "The
Expulsion of the Triumphing Boost"
A sorry fate befell John Williams,
who foolishly sent two aamplss of
spring poetry to King Jamsa L
For safety the unhappy post Inclosed
tlie verses In an Iron box, and James,
who always feared assassination, jump
ed to tlie conclusion that the latter con
tained some sort of an Infsrnal ma

Early writers tell of wonderful ml-
grntlon of American grey equlrrele,
which must have arisen frpm the rapid
Increase and consequent overcrowdlnf
of a locality. Thousands of this special
would atari off In n regular army, all
moving In the same direction and with
considerable rapidity. Although these
little animals have an extfhme aver
sion to water and do not sxctl as swim

matter what width, barred their prog
ress they would not beeltate for nn in
stant, but plunge Id end etruggle des
perately for the opposite shore, seising
uiion anything In the way of floating,
sticks or chips to assist them In the
passage. Unless the river was vet7
narrow by far tho smaller percentage
of the band reached the farther shore,
the rest becoming exhausted and
drowning. These armies never seemed
to reach any destination, bnt gradually
their numbers would decrease by death
from drowning nnd other hardships un
til tho band faded entirely away.

baronet who became the Ugh sheriff
