A Banni'-h reporter was speaking to iprominent citizen in Athens yester- jj. -Do von know,” said he, “that it jjilmoilcertain that Athens is to hay lOitKiiitieeni hotel ere next spring sets it ■" ‘•Well, that is just the size of it, and it #ill be a beauty, too.” ••Where, will it be?” ••It will be located on the Dorsey lot, the triangle formed hv Fouudry, Broad iOeonte streets. The plans for the hotel are all uiade and everything that necessary now to put them operation is for the money market to pt ea-m r, and that will happen short ly. The new hotel will bo erected at icost of one hundred thousand dol lar... and will be fitted up iu the very li-, s; style. Every modern convenience be there, and it will be erected nth a view to giving Athens just such lh ael as she most richly deserves. it is a fact, too, that this project has behind it plenty of money to put it through Miccessfullv, and that it will be consummated there is no doubt on ear h. “In addition to this, you may say that another great improvement to the city is lieing very favorably discussed.” •‘What is that?” “It is the building of a Union Passen ger D- pot. The railroad depots in our city are all very inconveuient to travel, nu.l if a depot could be established near the larg. st hotel iu the city, it would be of grtat adv intage. “l’h refore, the subject has been thoroughly anu favorably discussed, of buying up all that property fronting the proposed hotel on Oconee street and turning it into a grand Union Passen ger Depot. “If thi.- is done, all of the roads can niter the depot without inconvenience except tiie Georgia, and all that it aould have to do would be to back in over the ltelt Hoad. “Thus you would have a big hotel snd a depot just opposite, thoroughly convenient to travelers and to citizens. It would be a paying investment for the hotel and for the citizens. “You may look out for some big de velopnients along this line,” said the gentleman, “for the question now is, not what we ought to do. but what we mu-tdo. Aad it will be done.” THE old FREE STATE Win Protect the interests of Her Rail road, Madison county had been without a railroad up to the building of the O. C Hut now that it has one, it knows how to protect its interests. The citi zeus have taken steps that will prevent *»y further throwing of rocks at a train.

A N. and were arrested »i d committed to jail under a five hun- <1 re-1 dollar bond. It is a serious crime in Georgia to throw rocks into a passenger train, and when the courts get through with these hvgroes they will fully realize that fact. . from the best information obtainable, it seems that their attack on the train " its a premeditated affair,and that they selected a good place for the business. As the nigut train was pulling up the heavy grade near Carlton, the passen gers \yere startled by a number of rocks crashing through the windows of their car, the first attack was followed b, perfect fusiiade of large rooks. V _ hows were broken and the glass scat tered over the car.

Second Session of the Ecu- minical Methodist CouaciL Ada, Ohio, October 8.—-Oyer one hundred newspaper correspondents are on the ground at ten o’clock, and spe cial trains from many points are coming ia to hear the great McKinley Camp bell joint debate. This is a town of 2,000 people. Its university has 1,500 students. The president is accustomed to have great political speeches at his commence ment. Governor Campbell was to have been hero at the last commencement, but he could not come. President Lehr asked him to come during the campaign. He gladly accepted. It was hinted that McKinley would be invited to meet him. Campbell quickly expressed in writ ing liis delight at this proposition. This information, with a pressing invi tation, was communicated to McKin ley. For some time the major couldn’t be heard from. When approached in person about the matter he claimed not to have received the letter bearing the invitation. Pressed to fill the engagement, he at last accepted in self-defence, but he took csru to have his executive com mittee decline any future discussions. The following are the mild samples of the hard nuts that the Governor is giving the Mnjir to crack: Seeing that the commercial reports of Dunn & Co. are recognized as true thermometers of the business condi tions, why is it that without exception the business failures throughout the Union have been larger every week since the McKinley bill became a law. The business failures for three months ending September 30, 1891, are 2,754, against 2,1‘Jii for the same three mouths of last year. How is that when McKinley pro mised when his bill was pending that would bring prosperity? How is it that this bill has increased the business failures by 558 in three months? The liabilities for the same three months aggregate $44,000,000, which is $900,000 more than for the same three uiontbs'of 1890, before the deadly work of McKinley began. Why has the high tariff on wool made rags higher and wool cheaper? Where is McKinley’s home market for farmers’ supplies, and what would wheat be worth were it not for the foreign markets? If the McKinley bill is in the interest of laborers, why is it that not a single branch ot any laborers’ organization, since its adoption, has indorsed it, and that labor reductions have been greater than they were before. If taking the duty off of sugar makes cheaper how does doubling the duty on tin make it also cheaper. If McKinley is against freesilver be cause it makes a dishonest dollar why did he vote for the present silver law under which eighty cents on the dollar are now being coined. A distressingly weak shout greets McKinley as he alights from the train, hut be lifts his beaver and bows twice for every cheer. He goes up to President Lehr’s resi dence driven behind two fair looking sorrel horses. Seeing that this is a republican town the weakness of the major’s reception compared to the governor’s is very en couraging. At 12:45 Governor Campbell’s train came iu. As ho touched the ground the applause shook the town, and it is ten minutes before the crowd who train to hear him will permit his pair of beautiful blood red bays to pro ceed. He is escorted by military students of the college, 500 strong It now looks a3 if all Ohio is on the sidewalks The joint debate was very exciting, Campbell carrying everything by storm. That he will be the next governor of Ohio goes beyond a doubt.

Bishop J. C. Keener of New Orleans, was called upon to pray, and made a fervent appeal for Divine blessing upon the labors of the confer ence, closing with the Lord’s prayer. Following tbe prayer the assembly recited the apostle’s creed, led by Rev. Bishop Wayman, of the African Meth odist church, of Baltimore. Dr. Hastis of N. a read the sixth chapter of Isiah. When he closed Rev. Dr. Arthur, of London, read the 995th number of the hymnal: "Come let us anew our Journey pursue," which was sung by the entire assembly. Dr. Arthur arising, expressed his re gret that failure of his voice would not permit him to deliver the sermon which he had prepared to open the council, and tendered his thanks to Rev. Dr. Stephenson, president of the British Wesleyan conference, who had kindly undertaken to read it for him, and Dr. Stephenson then proceeded to read tbe sermon. Killed by a Train. Stapleton, S.

When snffl. In Yellowstone National park are in numerable geysers, the waters of which are strougly impregnated with calcare ous and silicions sinter, a white sub stance which instantaneously inernst- ates whatever it falls upon. Big mounds and craters are formed by it Travel- era place under the streams bottles and other objects they desire “turned to stone.” as they term it. and as soon as the sinter hardens carry away their tro phies in triumph. Mr. Cyril Jacqnes was a morbid, dreamy and downcast young man. With form, fine face and even wealth at his command, he constantly meditated sui cide and determined to become a felo de se. He wandered over the world to dis cover some artistic method of departing this life. He paled at the thought of an inquest over his mortal remains, of ac counts in the press and of speculation by his fellow mankind. He climbed Vesu vius and for hoars contemplated a plunge into the awful fires below, where his body would never be revealed. He did not fear instantaneous incineration— not thnL He conceived that in the in visible world iu which he was bound he might desire to gather his mortal ele ments somewhere, sometime, in the cycles of eternity. Hence, why so utter ly annihilate them? Mr. Jacques sailed to the borders of the great maelstrom off Norway and considered a plunge therein, heavily plated in a metallic armor. Here again he paused and foresaw the decay of the metal and the possibility and absorption of animal life. He studied aeronautics Intently and consulted the world’s aerostatic engi neers, M. Gabriel Yon, Captains Renard and Krebs, as to the possibility of an air ship which wonld bear him beyond the earth’s atmosphere, out into homoloidal space. Again defeat- These great men assured him that, for all his wealth, finite power could not achieve the in finite. In the year 1870 he read of the first ex peditions of Dr. F. V. Hayden, into the unknown wilds of the ■ Rockies, of the initiation of the then worldwide respect ed United States geological survey, of the wonderful geyser regions of Wy oming. Into the northwest corner of this territory he hastened his fiignt. August was waning when he mounted the terraces of Mammoth Hot Springs and saw the clear bine waters gusb from the highest piazza and fall evenly in veillike sheets over the sides, which con stantly increased in size. He saw that be hail only to sit there to be pushed higher and higher, while a mountain of incrustation broadened below him and reared him about Bnt as he watched the transformation of liquids into solids he saw that cer tain objects at the base of the mound, fast as they became incased with sinter, were pushed down hill, down toward the valley below. He speculated. He concluded that some time a concus sion of steam might explode the mound, and if a body were therein it would become exposed to beasts, men or sun. So he determined to be incased sepa rately aud allow his body to be pushed down bill, to become oue o' the rapidly forming, immense mass of incrustated objects. Having formed his plans, Mr Cyril Jacqnes took chloroform and laid down at the base of the series of piazzas of Mammoth Hot Springs, where the gey ser waters fell upon him aud in a short time incased his body iu hardened cal careous sinter. While the strange young man was ex hausting his life devising aesthetic means of death. Miss Mignonette Favre was leading a dissimilar career of inventing fancies and searching the world for a man who should be a synonym of her ideals so created. In her flights of ro manticism she had investigated the wildest noble red man in the deepest of unfreqnented deeps, bnt ascertained that his valne set on a woman was less than that of a horse. She studied a widower president, bnt, if he fulfilled her dream, he did not take kindly to her advances. She went abroad determined to fascinate a great prince, but all the princes she met spoke not of love, bnt of an annual stipend to become her husband. In 1890 Miss Favre decided to enjoy the summer in the Yellowstone National park, a tract solely under the jurisdic tion of the government, bat formerly a part of the then territories of Wyoming and Montana. The a Mammoth Hot Springs hotel suited her romantic ideas. While here she often climbed the piazzas of the great spring. She placed bottles, combs, horseshoes and other objects an del the trickling streams and saw them “turned to stone" to her heart’s content While she filled big boxes with a varied collection of these and kindred objects, her Ideal in this respect as in the case of a man, was unfulfilled. She saw the big heaps of objects in- crustated, which seemed to have slid down into the valley, and she was indig nant at the government for enacting laws to protect this “avalanche” and making it a misdemeanor to carry any section away. She clambered up and down the avalanche—for sneb the slant ing collection of objects seemed to be— aud each day pansed before a massive cone of white sinter, the solidity and great beauty of which she admired so much that it became n monomania with her. The cone was about seven feet in length, with a diameter of two feet, and looked as if it were a classic Ionic col umn. At least Miss Favre. concluded she could not live without the cone. In her frenzied admiration of it she forgot to search for a man of her romance. She hired the' stableman to take a ousted force of men, steal the coveted object at “Ethel Goodbell brought home a was the trouble at voting I lovely souvenir spoon with her from *«*• bouse this morning?” "Fitt- England.” “I know it;.

Miss Mignonette accompanied her treasure, and on her arrival at her su perb mansion on West End avenue had it unpacked and artistically displayed in an nxthetic, well lighted tipper room which she had converted into a sort of museum for the exhibition of her trophies collected while traveling. Here she spent hours daily admiring her treasure, examining and re-examining the surface, which variously resembled corals and stalagmites, honeycombs and cells. Nor did she tire. On the contrary, so great greW her fascinatiou that at last she was held by it as by u spell—as a bird might be hypnotized by a snake. Sbe would walk and walk around it, sing to it, in dite poems in its honor and call it by en dearing names. One day Miss Mignonette read a won derful account in a veracious newspaper concerning a frog which had been fonnd alive in a marble block. She was startled. What if her cone contained some ani mal—a bear—a snake—goodness—what? Thin girl had some sense. She actually reasoned. She felt that if it contained anything the mysterious object must be something higher, nobler than she, to so fascinate her. Should she smash it and end tbe mys tery? Nol Why spoil forever her idol? Again and again she caressed it, bnt always oue end of it Suppose the end toward which she was so irresistibly drawn were the head? • Miss Mignonette, after reading the frog story, grew so crazed with the pos sible romance of the situation that she at last became possessed with the belief that there wa9 a man inside What if it were true? He could not be dead, no, only in a trance. He must be young and handsome. Yes, he must be the idol of her dreams, for whom she had searched the world. Her future lord had been found at last Dame Nature had granted her prayer and in the most romantic way ever conceived, yea, inconceivable even to the wildest flighted novelist, had enabled her to find her lover in stone. She would break tbe seal, the long seal that had hidden him from the world. She would dress to receive liim. There should be no one else present Ho should awake from his long dream from the in visible world, should open his eyes on her loveliness, should awake to life and the world in her arms. She arrayed herself gloriously. Her dark hair was arranged with white b inds about it A simple flowing gown of white enveloped her form, and over it was the faintest white fabric of illu sion, so delicate as to deceive the eye. Her brown eyes, large and long lashed, shone with joy. Her feet were incased in tiny sandals. The nails of her delicate fingers Bhouo pink lined, like the shell of a pearl. She was arrayed at last, ready with endearing terms to receive her lover from his case of stone. Incan descent lamps shed a soft, mellow glow over the room, on the cone, enhancing the glorious beauty of the girl. With a sharp clusel she began to in dent a crease on the entire length of the cone. Gradually the crease deepened. Often she placed her ear to the opening, trying to catch some sound, some move ment The opening arrived at a depth where the cone could be split open with out injury to the inmate. She inserted several chisels and with a hammer gent ly began the splitting process. As the tomb began to open she pansed. She was scared. The man would really ie ns in death. How could she revive him uuless he immediately came to life? Suppose he were completely dead. • What cold she tell the authorities that which they wonld believe and not convict her as a murderess? Gradually her courage came back. She wonld save him somehow. Had not na ture granted her prayer and sent her a husband iu the most mystcrions, ro mantic fashion? Surely the power wlifch sent him to her to be rescued would en able her to restore him to life. Sue gave several taps and the cone divided in twain. In the morning they fonnd her in the museum in a dead faint. She did not re vive for many days. Beside her were two halves of the cone of silicions sinter. The occnpant, which lay beside her, was the limbless trank of a dead tree.—Wil liam H. Ballon in New York Evening Telegram. The Right Soil for Ponitry. A cormtponitMit ot the New York World, writiug on the subject of what breeds to keep, *-tys In my ex;iertence I have found that one of the first considerations in select ing birds for a poultry yard ought to be the kind of soil on which they are to be kept. This is a point which I believe has as yet uot been touched upon by your various correspondents, but 1 con sider it an important factor of success If it chances that the would he ponitry keeper has a dry. sandy or gravelly roil he can then select any breeds to place therein Unit he may fancy. Should his soil, however, be cold, damp or clayey great care will have to be observed in the selection of stock, for there are many breeds that will not thrive on snch lands. I)n wet, low lying lahils 1 wonld keep only ducks or geese. These will thrive and return a fair profit When practicable it is certainly ad visable to select for one’s ponitry yards and mi:.- « sandy or gravelly soil.
