No political or sectarian Significance at taches to the Congress. Its object is to revive memories of the race, and collect materials for compiling a history show ing tht-ir impress upon modern civilize lion', especially upon American insti tutions. It promises to be one of .the most notable meetings eyer held in Ten nessee. Robt. L. Taylor, Governor. “Every town, within a radios of one hundred and fifly miles of here, will be canvassed, and if big prizes will draw the companies you Can just rest assured Athens will be crowded from centre to circumference .with fiiemen.” “Will there be any other attractions offered besides the Tournament?’’ “Yes, I am sure there will. A. prop osition has been made to leading trades to have a grand procession on the first night. This procssion will be composed of floats representing the different in dustries in the city, and will show the place up in proper lights to the visiting multitude. I am satisfied it will be worth thousands of dollars to our mer chants in the iutnre.’’ “Is there any truth in the statement that cars on the different roads will be decorated and the Tournament ad vertised?’’ “Yes, that is quite true. We are going to get the authorities to allow us to decorate the last p&ss-enger car on their train, and send a number of young Ladv who n,en along to dis'ribute band bills and _ talk Tournament in general. This will be done on all the roa H s hading out of Athens. This advertisement will be worth i : s weight in gold to our mer chants and will give special impetus to trade during the spring months, and many people who never stopped in Athens before will be attracted to our city, and become permanent customers.” “You can state that the Tournament will show up Athens in her best light, both as a social and business center, and I am confident that every mer chant who has the interest of the city at heari, will put his shoulder to the wheel and give all the assistance he can, per sonally and financially. I am going down to Augusta in a few days to see about low rates on the railroads and ad vertising the Tournament down there. Just tell everybody in Clarke county through the columns of the Bannek- WaTchman, that the Tournament is going to be the biggest thing of the kind ever given in Georgia.” The committees having the arrange ments in charge are composed of most progressive citiz ns and the public can rest assured that our parade in May will be a success without a parallel.

LAVOKL»,Ga.,March II, 1889. Editor Banner-Watchman: I noticed the folllowirig paragraph in the B.-W of the 9lh inst. GOOD GROUNDS. “A lawyer in one of the upper coon ties had an account against the Air Line Railroad, and swore out an attachment, and locked the passenger train, at Toccoa. He sued out the attachment on the grounds that the train was moving out of the county,” which I hasten to correct and explain. You are in errrir as to some of the facts, and correct as to others. It is true the train was locked fast to the track at Toccoa by a lawyer of one of the upper counties, but the levy was not made up >n ;*n attachment. It was afifa issued from a common law judgment in the Jusdce Circuit of IVccoa District. The lawye. in question is Col. B. F. Camp, now of Carnesvilie but then of Toccoa, who controlled the Ufa, and WiS anx- i ..us to collect his client's money. He had made demand after demand upon the road for his money, and payment was refused, until he x>laced his iim in suit, and obtained a judgment after a hard fight with able opposing counsel. We bt-li ve, Col. G. M. Netherland rep resenting the road. The Richmond and Danville was then on a shaky founda tion, and was changing hatds occasion ally. C<>1. Camp, in order to protect the rights of his client, and after making a deni-md upon the local agent for the payment of his fif», and payment still being refu-cd, concluded to resort to s'Crner methods. He obtained a bailiff,we be'ieve, R J. W. Hitt, now of Toccoa, a pad lock and a trace chain and weiit down to levy his process upon the south bound mail aad express train. They weut down to the depot and when ihe train pulled up, the constable at once put his chain through the driving wheel and under the iion an 1 sprung lus lock, and a mail and express tra'ii of 10 or 12 cars on ft trunk l ; ne, was subjected to the corn- man I of a Haberaham county ba-liff, an-l at the mercy of a Justice’s Court fifa. The announcement was soon made to the pas-cugers that the train was un ’er levy, and it would be some time before it would move, as it would be necessary to communicate with Col B. T. Sage, who was superintendent of the road, nnd in Atlanta. A-telegratn was sent to C.d. Sage, informing Irm of what lie a'torney and constable had done, by old m*n Gall ."her. who was the engineer on the locked engine. In a short' wide an answer was received fr-m the superintendent’s office in in Atlanta, »nd was hsn’ed to the en gineer. As soon as he had glanced at its contents, he and his fireman at once began to throw in fuel as fast as they could, and in a short wli le his engine had on so much steam it could hardly be held to the track. The faith ful engineer reversed his lever and the train rolled back the full length the trare chain and pad lock would allow him to go. He D>en pulled open his engire and let In r go. The trace chan was broken and the delayed tra'<ii sped on its trip to Atlanta. As it departed, a small paper was seen to fall out of the engine, which being picked up by CoL Camp read as fol lows. 4 Atlanta Ga., Oct. 18, 1876. Jno. M. Gallagher, Engineer No 51, Toccoa, Ga.: Fire up, reverse your engine, pull her back, pull her wide open, and let he go Gallagher. (signed) B. T. Sage. Til's is the true history of. the train lockmg at Toccoa, as we 'understand it, and it is also the origin of the ex pression, “Let her go Gallagher,* 1 as no doubt Col Camp will tell you. The train entered the Gate City on time, and Col. Camp's money was remitted by t>*e first express train going North on the Air Line. M. T. W. Patented by a Citizen of Clarke’Connty. ; Mr. J. F. : Wilson, who lives near Athens, has patented a wagon brake. The brake consists of a beam at tached to the pole just in front of the bounds, and extending on either side farenrugh to b<?ar. against the fore wheels when the wagon is going down hill. The pin which attaches the Dole to ihe hounds works in a slot and when moving on level or going uphill, the team draws the tongue to the end of this slot and so relieves the wheel of the brake. In going down hill the weight of the wagon reverses this mo tion and the fore wheels press against the brakes. , GOLIATH was killed by such a small thing as a pebble.

Death of MissTJohnson. Tuesday afternoon, at 4 o’clock. Miss L. C. Johnson died at the home of Mrs. Olive, on Thomas street. Miss John son was a bright, attractive young lady, just blooming into womanhood, being in her 21st year. She was reared in Oglethorpe county, being.a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. E. W. Johnson of. that cou ty. She has been a resident of Athens for five months. Many friends sympa'hize with the bereaved in their affliction. NOTICE. Mr. A. R. Robertson, our Marble and Granite Merchant, says our people make a great mistake in purchasing Marble or Granite Monuments from drummers or traveling agents, with the impression that they are doing better than they can here in Athens, Ga. Mr. Robertson says he keeps up with all the new and latest Designs in the Monument business, and will guarantee that his prises are at least ten per cent, lower than any other Mar ble or Granite dealer in the United States; and our people will do much better to go and see Mr. Robertson at the Marble yard, when' they want to purchase a Marble or Granite Monument, and he will guarantee first-class work at nshch lower prices than you can get from any other Marble or Granite Dealer in the United States. tf.

John Rutherford Will Move to New York. Macon, Mar. 11.—It is rumored here that Capt. Jno. C. Rutherford will move to New York to live. His man agement of the Woolfolk case has added greatly to his already fine rep utition as an able lawyer. Although Major Bac-m still takes no-active part in the Woolf.dk case,the firm name of Bacon & Rutherford, was signed to the motion on which Woolfolk obtained a new tri 1. In the begining of the trial only tlie name of John C. Rutherforl appeared as Woolfolk's counsel. Frank Walker, whe volunteered his servic-s when Woolfolk was carried to Atlanta just after the crime, has not been here since the new trial began, and it is a matter of speculation as to what has become of his connection with the case. Historic Franklin. The man that “Struck Billy Patter son” once lived in Franklin county, and now it turnes out that “Let Her Go Gallagher” staried in this county. Franklin should be proud of her record. When you are sick you don’t want the oretical or oven logical demonstration to convince you as to the worth of a rem edy you should use. Experimental knowledge is the true criterion. Read the experience of others who have used B. B. R, (Botanic Blood Balm). Their plain statements carry more force than all the logic and theories possible. (g) D.-partmcnt of Agriculture Report on the Distribution of Wheat and Corn. Washington, March 19.—-The statisti cal report of the Department of Agricul ture for March relates to the distiibtj- ion of wheat and corn. The amount of jorn reported still on hand 39.6 per jen’. The surplus amounts to 787,000, XX) bush* Is of which the seven corn urplus States have 499,000,000 bushels. Tlie proportion me»chanta- ble averages 82 percent which is less tlnn in 1884,1886 or 1887. The aver age price is less than in December, then it was 34 cents per bushel for the U iited States, and 27, for the States producing commercial supplies. The March average for mer- . •hantable corn is 339 ■ cents ier bushel, for unmerchantable 22 8 eta ,»er bushel. I he general average of all aretie8 is nearly 32] cents per bushel, while the average of the seven states Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Missouri* Kansas and Nebraska is 25.6 cents p:r bushel. The proportion of the wheat crop on land March 1st is less than in any year dnee 1880, excepting 1882, and in 1887* though nca-ly the same rs in the latter year. The actual quantity on hand is less than in any recent year, except 1882 and 1886. It is estimated at about 112,000,000 measured bushels.
