ASSESSORS APPOINTED. FIVE RAILROADS OF G&ORGIA SHORT RETURNS. MAKE ComptrollerGeneral Wright Makes Com plaints And the Governor Appoints Assessors to Estimate the Value of the Property Atlanta, May 29.—Five of jthc s rail roads which have property returnable for taxation in Georgia, have had their estimates rejected. These railroads and their returns of able property arc as follows: Ltlanta and West Point returned its property at $901,410; the Georgia Pacific valued its property at $1,238,270; the Covington and Macon at $648,240; the Alabama Great Southern at $264,- €84 ; and the East and West of Alabama, at $161,955. fSi* The Comptroller thinks these valua- ‘ Hons are under the mark and has re ported the matter,to Governor Gordon, with the request that he appoint an as sessor, according to the law of 1888,who wiflp* assess the property. If the 'iailroads are dissatisfied with the result 'they can call for a board of arbitration. Three assessors may road, or for all, inted for each ivernor sees fit. The .board of arbitration consisting of three; one appointed by. the state, one by the railroad, and one selected by jfbese two, has already, been previded for'by law. This morning the’gover nor. made the appointments as follows: . John S. Davidson, Thos. R. Miles and S. W. Robertson, for the Macon and Covington: R, P. Trippe, S. G. McLendon and A.

Matthews, who liyes iu Madison county, was bitten by a rattle-snake yesterday, and died in thirty minutes after he was bitten. The little were on their 'way~" to' “Sunday' school. The little- fellow -stepped up on a log and little dreaming of the danger that awaited him, stepped off of the log, when a large rattle-snake IS WHAT REV.

He and his sister, as soon as he could get aVvay from the snake iu i as hard as they could to the house, which about two hundred yards distance, informed Dr. Matthews that he bad been bitten by a-rattle-snake. Whisky was at once brought out, but the little fellow cbuld not swallow and in’thirty minutes from the time he was bitten he was a corpse. It is thought that the running to the house caused the poison to penetrate his system quicker than it would have done had he kept still. Some think that the fangs of the snake struck an artery, ; which caused his death in such a short time. Siou Eye Sighed. Sioux is pronounced Soos, therefore, Siou would be “Soo.” Eye is pronounc ed “I,” and sighed. is pronounced as though spelt “side.” Yet S-i-o-u-e-y-e- s-i-g-h-e-d would be regarded as a most peculiar way of spelling suicide. It is an-ugly thing however you spell it, yet thousands- of women are practically guilty of it. Day after day, week after week, they endure that dull pain in the back, that terrible “dragging-down, sensation that tells of weakness and functional disorder, and do absolutely nothing to effect a cure. In a few years a broken-hearted husband and mother less children will follow her to the grave. False delicacy .prevents consulting a physician,but even this is not necessary Br..

Crawfordvillk, Ga., May 27.— A meeting of the Stephens - Monumental Association was held here on the 25th inst.Hon. George T.Barnes, of Augusta, President of the associa tion, being present, presided at said meeting. The report of W. R. Gunn, Treasurer of the association, showed that about $3650 had been donated,$3000 Successful Business Hen. Who are our most successful business men ? Go out on the street and look them over. . You won’t find them men who have pale cheeks. They are not thin, emaciated men. They aro not nervous, irritable men. They are men whose faces i ndicate robust health. Men with good blood, and plenty of it. That’s the secret of their success. A man whose blood is thin and weak and poisoned with impurities, is never successful like his healthy neighbor. You cannot ex pect him to be, for without rich,strong, nourishing blood he will lack the“ vim” and “push” which the man must have who would succeed. Such men should use Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Dis- eov< ry to restore their impoverished blood to its normal condition. By the use of this great blood-purifier and builder-up of the system, they may put themselves in a condition which will enable them to win the success they are anxious to achieve. of which had been expended in. the purchase of Liberty Hill and the grounds attached thereto, about ten acres, and the improvement of the same, leaving a balance of $650 now in the treasury. After full deliberations resolution was passed, ordering the funds on hand to be deposited in bank and also all future contributions, resolution was also passed designating the first day of June, 1890, as the time when the association will determine upon the plans, specifications and cost of the monument to be erected at Liber ty Hall to the memory of the late Hon. A. H. Stephens, and then the work will begin upon the monument. A rcsolu- ’ tion was then passed ■ complimentary to Miss M.A.H. Gay for the very efficient services already rendered the associa tion,and she will continue as one of the authorized agents to solicit contribu tions for the building of the monu ment: We therefor earnestly appeal to the people of Georgia to contribute to this great work in memory of Georgia’s noble eon, patriot and statesman. W. O. Mitchell, M. Z. Andrews, » Committee. What Prohibition Will do. Philadelphia Record. The more the voters of Pennsylvania consider the Prohibitory amendment the more glaring its inconsistencies, in justice and unreasonable character are brought into view. It does not take sensible business man long to form an opinion as to the consequences of the adoption of tbe measure* while the in dustrious and intelligent farmer, the capitalist and the property-holder are not a whit behind him in reaching their conclusions. They may be all temper ance men, an^ very properly be op posed to the indiscriminate sale of in toxicating liquors, but after serious consideration and thorough inquiry into the question they are compelled to acknowledge that the proposed plan for “abolishing the evil” is not feasible since it would result in a system of clan destine selling and drinking of liquor smuggled into the State, thereby' in creasing drunkenness in the very face of the law established for its prevention. They see that instead of “crushing the life out of the hydra,” as the orators of the measure say they will do, under its working the progeny of the “monster” will be bred in secret places and appear in due time to overrun the Common wealth in greater numbers and more hideous and repulsive form. : A STORMY JUNE, der date of May 14th, editor Ilicks gives these forecasts for June in his valuable monthly journal, “Word and Works.” The first day of June is the center of a regular storm period. It will be very warm, with storm forces oi*ganized aud iu motion near the regions where storms usually originate. By about the 3rd and 4th, they will have spent their force, and cooler weather follow in the track. Geueral rains and storms of greater or less violence may reasonably be cx- MR. SWIFT TALKS.

Mr. Lamar finally consented to leave the matter with Dr. Rankin and myself, and ~ we offered pected. We name the 1st, 2nd and 3rd, as the days of greatest probable danger. About the ,7th is a day which ordina rily might bring slight reactionary storms, but here summer solstice and the effects of the planet Mars are apt to prolong the disturbance and provoke to greater violence. On 10th the annual solstice period be gins, continuing as a rule .past the 21st. A regular storm period is central this year on the 12th, constituting the period 10th to 16th one of marked importau.ee. Hard storms within this limit will be almost a physical necessity. Keep a prudent weather eye on say about the 11th, 12th, 13th and 14th. Watch the temperature and the clouds. W;irin, southerly winds and threatening clouds will mean danger. There ought to be great and general rains at this season. The disturbance of Jupiter and Mars are central throughout the whole of the solstice period this year, and will, doubtless, aggravate and prolong tbe. regular and reactionary disturbances into spells of continuous rainy weather. Mars is on the 16th, and the 17th and the 18 reactionary; watch all storms on or about thiese dates. From the 22d to the 28th is the last period'for June. With the moon be tween the sun and earth on the morn ing of the 28th, the most active part of this period maty come at the last. Or dinarily the danger days would fall about thb 24th, 25th and 26th. Should heavy rains and electrical storms by any means fail at the June periods, violent volcanic and earthquake convulsions may be expected, especially about the close of the month.

The Augusta Chronicle, in Tuesday’s issue,-published a long article on “The Gambler’s' Money,” and stated that Robert Conner, a gambler had died, leaving an estate worth two hundred thousand dollars,'and that he had but one living relative, Mrs. Turner, the grand-daughter of the brother of Robt.

He stopped with an old gentleman who had a large number of geese. They were all caught in the morning, and a line with hook attached to the leg of each goose, and the hook well baited, and carried to the pond, and turned loose. While the goose was swimming around with the hook and line under him, a trout would be attracted by the bait, and get hung to the hook. The goose would discover something unusual going on, and would rise and fly to the barn, with a three pound trout. Col. Bald win vouchers for this, and says the old gentleman got all the fish he wanted iu this way. And Flee—Their Absence is not Noticed For Hours and Their Capture Doubtful, a Novel Delivery. Atlanta, May 27.—There was a jail breaking at Decatur about nine o’clock last night which was carried out in an unusual manner. The jail is constructed of stone, the outer walls forming the hack of the cells. One cell was occupied by three pris oners, J. K. Moss, white, and Jim Scott and John Lew, colored. Under the supervision of Moss the negroes suc ceeded in removing a large stone in the hack of their cell, and crawled through the hole. Their absence was not no ticed until this morning and the pris oners have had so many hours start that iti8 doubtful if they will ever be cap tured. Moss was charged with assault with intent to murder, having shot Bud Kennedy at Lithonia about a year ago. About 4 months ago, Moss’ sixteen- year-old wife passed through Atlanta on a visit to her husband and asked a detective to buy her a file to give her husband. x The negroes were charged with as sault and battery.

W.Kroncr^instead of John W. Conner. John W. Kroner married Miss Stark, a sister of Rev. W.F. Stark, of Jefferson, and W. T. Stark, now of Tallulah Falls. John W. Kroner had by this marriage three children, Mary Lou Kroner, Frank Kroner and Nettie Kroner. Mary Lou Kroner is recollected by our older citizens as the handsomest woman ever in Athens. She married a man named-Williams, and Mr3. Tur ner, of Augusta, is a child of this mar riage, and claims to be the only living heir of Robt. Kroner. This, however, is a mistake, as Mr. Frank Kroner, of Winterville, and Mrs. Nettie Fleeman, formerly Miss Nettie Kroner, are equally entitled to a share in the estate. The Augusta Chronicle alludes to a. Mrs. Fitch, of Peekskill, New York, as knowing something about the rela tionship. Mrs. Fitch was Mrs. Lom bard, when she lived in Athens, the wife of Dr. Lombard, a dentist, who went to the war with the Troup Artil lery. Mrs. Lombard adopted Nettie Their Business Booming.
