4THENS BANNER : TUESDAY MORNING OCTOBER 27, 1891 Colonel Benjamin Cudworth Yancey is dead. And a solemn spell of gloom is thus east over the entire State of Georgia, for he was a Georgian who claimed the re* spect and esteem of all bis fellow oitt* sens. Colonel Yancey died in Borne yester day morning at 5 o’clock. The news was telegraphed the relatives of the family here in Athens yesterday morn ing. He had been sick several days, having been suddenly siezed In Atlanta about two weeks ago. While in biB room at the Kimball House, about eleven o’clock at night. Colonel Yancey arose from his bed and in walking across the room in the dark stumbled and fell receiving such a fall as made him unable to rise. He lay there all night calling for as sistance but no one came to his help un til morning. He contracted such a cold during the night that be Vas very dan- gerovsly sick the next morning and was carried to the first train fer Home. There at the home of bis son Mr. Ham ilton Yancey be has been growing grad ually worse until his death which came yesterday morning. A BRIEF SKETCH OF HIS LIFE Col. Yancey was 74 .years old last April. He is known all over this part of the Southern States. He lived here in Athens for a long time and is deeply beloved by alj who knew him. He was living in the city of Atlanta when the war began and was among the very first in Georgia to strike out for the Confederacy. He organized a company of volunteers and went straight w> the front where bullets flew thickest. He was a brave soldier and was beloved by bis old soldiers. Col. Yancey was twice married. His first wife was Miss Laura Haynes They bad one child. His second wife was Miss Sarah P. Hamilton of Ath ens. Two children were born to her The three children are Mrs. Hugh N Harris of Athens, Mrs. Charles Phini' zy, of Augusta, and Mr. Hamilton Yancey of Rome. HIS PUBLIC WOBK. Col. Yancy just before the war was made consul to South America and for a long time served most acceptably in that capacity. He was a member of the board of trustees of the University nearly all his life and was known to be one of the most faithful trustees of the college, He never failed to attend their meet ings and was perhaps the most loyal friend rod supporter the University ever had. Colonel Yancey was a high minded man. He had confessedly the most ex alted conception of honor and of right, and this was perhaps the most characterizing feature of his whole life. ' THE FUNERAL To OAT. | The funeral Will occur today in Rome, At 3 o’clock this afternoon all that was mortal of Col. B. C. Yancey will be laid to rest forever beneath the sod. All Georgia will feel the keen pang of There was a big Alliance meeting in Athens yesterday. It was the occasion of the lecture by district lecturer, J. R. Robbins, to the Clarke county Alliance. And a good speech it was too. AMBITION. Very few of the women in Pottstown could nave told you, if suddenly question ed, wb»l were their aims in lite. They tried fmmday to day and lioui to hour 10 do their duty to husband, children, home ami the church. But Mis. Leper had one ambition, one clearly defined purpose. It was, to be ad mitted to the Smalley set. S ie probably never put this desire into words, even to herself, but it dominated her lite. Now the Smalley clique did not by any means comprise the most ecbolary or re fined or bes; bred, nor even the wealthiest, p-ople in Pottsiown. Their claim to social distinction was b-<sed solely upon the fact that they hW. lived in Poitstown longer than their neightiors. Oatsi lera wondered why anybody should stay in the little smoky mill town who could get out of it. But these people, simply because they had lived for three generations in its smoke and irrimo, held themselves haughti ly aloof from later comers, whom they re garded very much as the nobles of Saint Germain did the canaille of Bonaparte’s day. Mrs. Leper was a new comer. She was descended from a good old Revolutionary family. H,r husband was a lawyer ot ability; hts eloquence bad gained him a reputation throughout the stale. He was » man of mtigrity, of much distinction in _ ... i manner and charecer; he was able to snp- When the meeting was called to 1 •*„.( j,j 8 w ite in comfort, even luxuiy.

An Enthusiastic Crowd and a Good Speech—Lecturer Robbins Is a Good Speaker and true Alliance- man. order in the city council ball by Presi dent George T Murrell of the esunty Alliance there were quite a number of enthusiastic members of the order there to greet the orator of the day with tre mendous applause when introduced by the president. Mr Robbins begun by saying he was not going to talk as a scientific man, or a man away up in the mysteries of po litical economy but was there to lecture to farmers simply as a plain, practical old hayseed farmer. He then went on in a most graceful manner to tell about the causes that have brought the depression to the far mer’s heart. He was not a bit easy on the Wall street monopolist. He slashtd up the National bank act right roughly and roasted the opponents of the sub treasury plan with telling rebuke, and on this score he was applauded time and time again.. NO SUB TREASURY BILL. “But,” said he, “the Alliance has no sub-treasury bill. That’s all stuff. We, as an alliance have framed no bill. We have a sub-treasury plan, but tbe Al liance has uo sub-treasury bill. We will trust our statesmeu in Congress to frame th* bill.” Lecturer Robbins is a man of ability of an easy flow of words, and a witty fellow with it all, He makes a clever speech, uses some powerful arguments in behalf of the Alliance, and all Alli- ancemen should go to hear him when ever he speaks. r NOT FIGHTING DEMOCRACY. Loper, coming to live in Pottsiown a tew yeais after her marriage,felt herself to be one of the cmailis. Mrs. Smalley did not call upon h*r. There were many other women in the town outside of this exclusive ciicle. Mrs Judge Pierce, jhe stately old lady in the great bouse on tbe hill, bad quiel’y with- diawn fiom it She.looked with' cold dis approval upon Mrs. Smalley and her fast, foolit-h coterie The langdons g vt hi red a musical, literary vroup obout them aod keenly erjoyed tl-eir* social life. There wi re many earnest, devout people, t>io. who were w’bt lly occupied with charitable and religions woik, and never .pent a thought on their fashionable neighbors, Mrs. Loper knew that she could find con genial companions among any of these people—in her secret soul she sneered at little Mrs. Smalley’s ignorance and vulgar pretentions—but she was wretched as Innf; as that arbiter of society in Pi ttstown did not call nor invito her to her receptions. For, although the Smalley set was pro. •einioiis and under tired, it was acknowl edged io be tbe haut toi. of Potttstown. If you Ii8d a card to Mrs. Sniallev’s recep tions, you belonged to “society.” If your bo ise j-tood upon the hill on which Bbe a -d her friends lived, it.was -worth several tboasand more than if it was in a pleas anter quarter. (Of coarse it is only in Poitstown that ibis absurd condition of afilira exists in this country!) Mrs. Smalley appreciated to tbe full tbe power which circumsta’ncis had* placed in her hands. Her favor was not easily won Yi-srs passed and she had not yet recog nized Mrs. Loper’s presence in the town In that time Sarah L iper, who had much strength of character, would Lav.: xccepted and submitted to any other misfortune— blindness or a lame leg, for example, ^be would not submit to social ostracism. } T must visit in the best society or not at all,’she told her husband. She worked her way into a charitable rganizntion in order ibatsbe might meet Mrs. Smalley on the committees. Next she gave up the pew which they occupied in the old church and took a costly one in Lecturer Robbins says the Alliance is I ibe new edifice in which most of the Brah not fighting the Democracy and asks “in I m ' n ca9te were mtml,era - the name of justice is not tbe Alliance tbe Democracy, and is not the Demo cracy the Alliance?” He could not have made a more perti nent remark.

Her aims for ibe children were changed now. B >b was kept away from school to practice a part in tabl> aux and private the- atricles, in which he appeared in a Din toire costume of velvet and lace. Ntlly soon learned that the obj-ct of her lite was to dance, to sing, to appear in pretty new gowns, to make herself conspicious among the other children, in tbe hope that Ireue Smalley wonld invite her to the Christmas ball. Tbeir father made a feeble protest. •Our whole motive of iife is change Sarah,’ he said. ‘The minds of t children are filled with tr fl s, Our boi life is gone, and instead there is a c< stant buzz and tumult about dress a balls or some other lolly.’ ‘1 do not consider the social position r children a trifle or folly/ she replil sharply. ‘I only know,’ he imswi-red, ‘that you cnce hoped to fit them to be God’s servants Id ibis world aod tbe next. Now your highest hope is to fit them tor the Smalley Set.’ She did not answer. The subject was never broached between them again. Mr Loper’s death a year later left be*r wealthy widow with no restraint upon her social ambition. She succeeded in ca- ing a foothold in the fashionable circi It was not secure, and she was perp- tualiy torced tocirry tueir favor by mean mile arts for which she despised herself.
