Ihe Southern Alliance Farmer in speaking of the work of the Koad Co'. gress that assembled in Atlanta recent ly has Borne very laudatory words to say concerning one of Athens’ most es* teemed citizens, it says: Prof. C.

The Piotessorwas the leading ilgure in the road congiess last week and suggested a plan worthy of careful consideration .There is nothing more important than good public roads, and we trust that tbs movement inaug urated in Atlanta last week will be taken np throughout the state. Qood roads means a saving to farmers in ma ny different vayr T*>-v *i fewer a took and UcUit stock j .» great -aving in vehicles; a less supply of corn and fodder to run them, and the moving of your market towns several miles nearer If Prof. Strahan sneoeeds in this .move ment, and there is no earthly reason why he should not, the farmers of Geor gia will owe him a lasting debt of grati tude.

Glancing over several exchanges, a few interesting pieces were clipped from their onlamns as to Texas life They are interesting in many phases. Apparently Texans do not submit to being robbed with any great degree of Christian forbearance if we are to udge fvom the instance of a Dallas gentleman whom a burly road ageut tried to hold up as he drove through a suburban avenue of that city at nighi n company with a lady. When the bold marauder jumped into the buggy be clutched the lady’s throat with one hand while he covered the gentleman with a big revolver and ordered him to 8top. But before be cmld explain what he wanted him to stop for the gentleman grabbed the bandit’s pistol aud told the lady to whip up the horse, which she did with so much energy that tb« bandit was j-rked out of the baggy and left his pistol behind. In failing bis foot caught in the wheel ai.u he was dragged some distance while the gentleman used the highwayman’s re volver to shoot at him ns he was thus tobogganed aloug. Making a living in the bandit business down in Texas seems to be alm' St as dangerous as monkeyi g with a morose buzz-saw. :.ig at home •u,prove our ■nr, we may •unity in th<- disadvan unty is ex Three big calves. *t>y Mr, D.

Jenner is under a cloud. He was hastily called away from Augusta yesterday to an swer before the State committee here some very damaging charges against his character. Last Sunday the I’ribune-of-Rome coupled • bis name with that of Mrs. Dndley, a woman of notorious character, who has figured in several scandals recently. It was published that Secretary Jenner had taken the woman to a boarding house kept by Dr. Geiser and bis wife, introduced her as her cousion, securing appartment for himself and her and liv> under the same root for several weeks The woman’s character was discover ed during Jenuer’s absence and she was ejected from the house. It also de veloped that she bad previously been put oat of the Central hotel, and that she left for Atlanta .to escape farther attention by the authorities. A preliminary meeting of the State committee was held yesterday and last night, and a full meeting has been called for next Tuesday to investigate the barges fully. Secretary Jenner, who was before the committee last night, ienies the charges indignantly. He -ays he has no r< lative in this country but bis wife and children who live in Atlanta. He has been State Secretary of the Y. M. C. A. for over a year, and no suspicion was ever cast upon bis character. The members of the committee here believe him innocent. thorpe County. E.

If ail that is claimed for it be true, it is a great invention for both the planter and the railroads—but we ha\e our doubts about its making a smaller bale than a hydraulic press. It is a good deal to believe that it can make as small a bate with the same quantity of cotton. SCANDAL’S FINttLR MR. GEORGE C JENNER r 8 Summoned Before the State Com mlttee to Answer Serious Charges —He Denies AH—Congressman Livingston Replies to Col. Oates THE CONVICTS. rXL Governor Buchanan will not Call oct the MUItla. Chicago, Nov. 5.—A Nashville spe cial says: E. B. Wade, state superin tendent of prisons, after a conference with Governor Buchanan aud Adjntant General Norman has returned to Tracy City. He was ordered to protect the branch prisons there and at Inman at all hazards. The large foroe of guards at each place has been furnished with arms and ammunition, and special arrangements have been made to prevent a surprise by a mob, as at the other three branch prisons. Governor Buchanan says the lessees want him to order a force to conduct the convicts back to the mines, but he is satisfied now that there exists no good reason for calling oat the militia. Mr. J. Goodwin, sab-lessee of the convicts at Briceville, when asked if oonvicts would be' returned to the mines, said that they would not unless the state authorities would guarantee them protection. He said there was no use in taking convicts to the mines to be released in a few days. Telegrams received by the governor report the capture in Kentucky and Tennessee of about ninety escaped con victs. The captors were instructed to return the convicts to the main prison at Nashville and they would he paid $25 for each. Livingston Replies. Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 5.—[Special.]— The sub-treasury had the innings at the Exposition grounds today. Con gressman Livingston made bis sp«.eoh in reply to Lol. Oates' argument of yes erday. The great Georgia Alliance man used the same line of argu uient that he has used on numerous other occasions. He was listened to by a big crowd. HYDROPHOBIA. Young Gumltil Suddauly Saizad With ConvuUloua at the Tabl*. Evansvillh, lad., Nov. 5.—Nicholas Gambol, the 16 year-old son of Antho ny Gumbel, of German township, died from hydrophobia. Young Gumbel was bitten by a shepherd dog while ont bunting last July. The dog belonged to him and tnraed suddenly on his mas ter, fastening his teeth in the calf of the right leg, lacerating the flesh. The boy shot the dog immediately, and nothing more was thought of the bite. The wound healed an, and snob a thing as the dog being mad was never dream ed of. Saturday last young Gnmbel was taken suddenly with convulsions while at the dinner table and made an attack upon his father, trying to bite him. The hoy was with difficulty pat under restraint and a physician sent l>r. The convulsions continued, vary ing in intensity with the strength of the youth. Tbe case of the dog bite was brought to mind and the nature of the bov’s ailment realized. Everything possible for the alleviation of the boy’s suffering was done, bat to no avail, RESCUED. Portion of th# Crew of the Wracked Schooner Kttsapa. Vancouver, B. O., Nov. B.—Ths steamship Empress of Japan, has ar rived from China and Japan, twelve days from Yokohoma. She brought Captain Tibbets and eight of the crew of the schooner Kitsapa of San Fran cisco. They sailed from Port Townsend July 4, with a million feet of lumber, for Shanghai, and were wrecked Sept. 9, on Barondina Island. The schooner broke up and the wreckage floated away. The crew remained on the island twenty- seven days. Water and food gave ont and the men suffered terribly. The captain, mate and two sailors left for Lira Cuoo Islands, and were picked up by a steamer and taken to Hiogo. A passing steamer rescued the remain der from Barondina.

Admiral George Montt'a Election Is Belled With Satisfaction. Valparaiso, Nov. 5.—As was for merly announced in these dispatches, the Liberal party won a sweeping vic tory in the recent elections, and this fact made the election of a Liberal presi dent a foregone conolnsion. The constitution of Chili provides that the electors chosen by the people shall meet and select and elect a presi dent. In accordance with the provision of this section of the constitution, the Liberal presidential electors met and elected as president of the republic for next five years Admiral Jorge Montt. The inauguration ceremonies will take jriace the Capitol, Santiana De Chili, It is farther believed that with the institution of constitutional govern ment tbe questions now at issue be tween Chili and the United States will he more calmv discussed and that the outcome will he sasiafactory to both nations. Admiral Montt was the most promi nent opponent of the late President Balmaceda. and upon the breakiug ont of the revolution took command of the Congressional fleet. It was owing, in a great measure to his action, that many other naval officers deserted Balmaceda and joined the revolution ists. The president-elect is extremely pop ular with all classes, and his election is hailed with much satisfaction on all sides. TAKEN FOR A BEAR. G. W. Price Killed While Crawling In His Sleep. Glenwood Springs, Colo., Nov. ft.— G. W. Price, son of Dr. Price of Chi cago, A. C. Fleischner and J. B. Cobh, W. H. Hubbard of Spring Valley, as guide, outfitted here and started for a two weeks’ hunt on the Big Mnddy. They camped in Jerome park, at the head of Thompson creek, in Pitkin county. In a place called Dun’s Dug- out. Some time during the night Mr. Price, who, it is claimed, is a somnam bulist, went outside of the dng-ont, leaving the others asleep. Upon his return, as he crawled into the room on all fours. Hubbard awoke and called out: "Whose there.” and called to the dog, but as the dog be came frightened and no answer was E ven. Hubbard exclaimed: "Boys, ilieve it’s a bear, give me a gun quick,” and Cobb hastily handed him a 45-cali bre Cull’s revolver, and without farther thought fired two shots, one of which passed through the top of Price’s head, into his body, causing his death in about two hour-<. Tbe party returned immediately with the body to Marion, where an engine was procured, and all dime to Glenwood Springs. Coroner G. Clark immediately summoned a jury and a verdict of accidental sl/ootiqg rendered. He took the Cash With Hint. Atlanta, Ga , Nov. 6ih—[Special.] —Job d Jones is the name of a citizen who is wanted in Atlanta. Jones came her several months ago from Chattanooga to get admitted to the Confederate home.

The Jury Inetrncted lo Itelorn a Ver dict of Not Guilty. Los Angeles, CaL, Nor. 5.—Jndgs Rose of the United States circuit court, granted the motion of the defendants to instruct the jury to return a verdict of not guilty in the case of the United States against Gaorge A. Bart and Pe- cardo Trumbull, who have been on trial here for a week, charged with fit ting out the Chilian steamer Itatawith arms to cruise against the government of Chili. The court grants the motion on two points—first, that the indict ment is defective, being formed under the neutrality laws in not stating that a state of war existed in Chili and that the defendants were beligerents and had been recognized as such; secondly, the charges would not hold, because the statute contemplates a state of war,also that the vessel coming to the United She Blew Her Brain* Oat. Jasper, Tenn., Nov. 5.—Mrs. Davis, wife of one of the convict guards at In man, where one of ths largest conyiot camps in the state is located, committed snicide. She blew her brains out with a shotgun. She left a note to her hus band saying that she had rather he dead than to be living with him. There is some mystery about the matter, and it is believed the inhumanity of convict labor bore heavily on her mind, Know* Nothin* qt It. Washington, Nov. ft.—Acting Secre tary Spaulding has received a letter from Francis B.

BLAINE AND MCKINLEY. Washington, Nov. 6.—Ths general feeling here is that the election* this week and their resnlts have smoothed the way for a Democratic vic.ory in 193. The president, Mr. Blains and other members of the administration se« this and they do not contemplate the figures of the last election with anything like satisfaction. They have seen the free coinage and Farmers’ Alliance eoares falling ont of sight and tariff reform standing ont boldly as the issne with the certainty that a proper man will be the nominee of the Democratic party on a sound platform. The members of ths administration make bat a feeble attempt to disguise the fact that the losses their party have sustained are serious if not fatal. Tbe thing Mr. Harrison was concerned about above all else was ths election of Mr. FassetL His vocabulary does not snpplyaterm strong enongh for his disappointment. Democrats are inconsolable because Mr. Campbell has been compelled to take, hnt there is acknowledged vauch in that result in the way of profit if the Democracy will not close their eyes to it. It holds the Republicans to the rnh- ber tariff as an issne for which they most contend, and it promises to elimi nate the free coinage of silver idea from the fight in ’92. Thus sunlight can he seen through the only Democratic re vert*, While the administration finds no solace anywhere, the New York Sun in an editorial leader prophesies that Blaine and McKinley will be the Re- mblican ticket iu ’93. It is thought lere that the large Republican major ity in the Ohio legislature will invite a bitter fight between Sherman and For- aker for the senate. THROUGH THE HEAD. former Took * Little Girl for a Woodchuck and KUlad Her. Parkersburg, W. Va., Nov. 6.—The following report of a terrible affair has been received here: A man named Wil son, a fanner near Wolf Summit, who had been annoyed by the depredations of ground hogs in his fields, wenflnto the woods near by where the woodchucks concealed themselves and set snares for the animals. While he was setting the snares a little girl named Bailey, 10 or 11 years old, aud who lived near by, was attracted by Wilson’s actions, and slipped behind *a stamp to watch him. While she was glancing ov.-r the top of the stamp the man happened to look up, and seeing nothing bat the top of her head, wi c i he believed to he» woo-lchnck, picked np his gun and fire-1. shooting her through the head and kiit •nir iier NO POWER TO ‘ CLARE WAR.

To * Eenar-ors and R< piesei tatives who have bad as much experience as the President, tins limitation is so well anown that it would prevent any rea sonably well infouned public man to expect “pelfeci” war, as it is called, >' ith any foreign nation until hostili- ies had been uuthoriz d by Congress. This haq been well known to all the statesmen from Webster’s time, at leas*, who have held the office <d Secretary oi State, and it is, of course, known to Mr Blaine, who would not restrain any im patience on the part of Mr. Harrison for immediate war by directing bis atten ton to the reoord. Mr. Webster, in 'fc51, writing upon a warlike suggestion touching a controversy with France about tbe Sandwion Islands, raid: “Thi aw-making power in this government nets entirely with congress. • * * Thi President can authorize belligerent op erations only in >he cas“s expressly provided for by tbe Conatitut'on ami th** laws ” Mr. Cass, in 1857, when the United States were asked to join Great Britain in belligerent operations against China •Tote to Lord Napier: “Under tin i onstitution of the United States th* Executive branch of this Government is lo the war-making power. The exercise of that great at- ribute of sovereignty is vested in Con gress, and the President has no au'hor ty to order aggressive hostilities to b- undertaken.” At the same time he declared tha- •aval officers bad the right, and it n hi ir duty, to • id ploy the forces unde* heir command not only iu self-defeusa. but for the protection of our citizen- v hen exposed to outrage. But miiita ■ y operations cou d not be undertake) -ithout the authority of the Nations Legislature. President Buchanan recognized th. existence of the constitutional obj c 'ion to the declaration of war by th< President, for, in biB third annual m<-8- -age to Congreu, he recommended th< passage of a law authorizing the Presi dent io employ the naval forces thei at his commai d to . pro tec \merican citizens crossing the isthmus by the Panama, Nicaragua and Tehauniepec routes He made another recommendation of the same sort to protect Americans in Mexico dud South American States. Still, he said: ‘The chief objection urged against ths grant of this authority is thai Con gress, oy conferring it, would violate he Constitution—that it would be s ransfer of tbe wsr-making, or, strie lj peaking, the w&r-dt ciding, power t< the Executive.” Tbe Constitution authorizes the Pres ident to call out the militia and. to use the army and the navy to repeal in vasion. If the President bears of the approach of any Chilian gunboats be fore the meeting of Congress he can safely order Admiral Walker to employ the remnant of the squadron of evolu tion aud of his “pull” to protect the United States against invasion. 1^11 • I rnm AN INEVITABLE CONFLICT CONSUMPTION in its ' early stages can be cured by the prompt use of Ayers Cherry Pectoral It soothes the inflamed tissues, aids expectoration* and hastens recovery. * Dr. J.

Last Hasting Flac. of tka Remain* of Mr. D.vls. Richmond, Nov. 6.—Ths committee representing the Ladles’ Hollywood Memorial association called on Mrs. Jefferson Davis, with the view of ex pressing a desire that the association.be allowed the custody of the remains of Mr. Davis. Various places of sepnltnre were talked of, including the grounds of the white house of the Confederacy. Mrs. Davis raid her husband had often expressed his aversion to any public, noisy thoroughfare as a place of burial, and had desired a quiet and secluded place for himself, where his whole fain ily might rest near him. She said she had finally decided on Hollywood ooma- tery, but had not aa yet selected the exact spot. She assured the ladies that as soon as her selection was made and the interment had taken place she would then turn over the whole section to the Hollywood Memorial association. Mrs. Davis has a son (Joseph) buried in Hol lywood. It is also tbe place of inter ment of some 18,000 Confederate sol diers. Mrs. Davis expressed her earnest de sire to make Richmond her future home and said it was no longer a question of anything bat meana. If she can make satisfactory financial arrangements she will soon be hack to spend the rest of her days. The site of the monument to Mr. Davis will be left in the hands of the Davis Monument association. THE CRISIS PASSED. Th* Political Situation in Canada Quitt ing Down.

The result was that Secretary Chaplean agreed to continue in his place for a time and to succeed Hon.

Turn on the hose, gentlemen of the City Council 1 That’s tbe way to do Turn them on j Is Threatening the’peace of Europe. Today, as yesterday, as tomorrow, and as for a long time to come the sic uation of France and Germany forms the great subject of anxiety which is mposed upon the meditation of all Eu ropean statesmen. At no other point is it foieseen that war can break out. Russia has great ambitions and Italy haaatrong;desires,buc Russia is for years doomed merely to cherish ambi tions, for she can not realise them sin gle banded, and it does not depend upon her to provoke a general war, which would be one re sult of her oombined action with France; while as for Italy, she will never venture to give the signal of war, for if she did she wonld be left to herself and would be speedily crushed. It could be solely as the result of a gen eral war tbftt Italy could obtain her share, and in the p r esent state of her alliances she could take that share only from France* so that a general war alone could procure it for her, inas much as, if she were left single hand ed, she would be able to overcome France. Neither Austria nor England dreams of war. It is therefore still, as twenty years ago, France and Germany who conld occasion war because whatever may be proclaimed or what ever may be concealed, these two nations desire war—war, first for its own sake, and next for the rest ; and if, in order to have done with this everlasting France- German nightmare, Europe could not promise to fold her arms, and after wards to intervene merely as arbiter, war would break out to-morrow be tween France and Germany, for the fatality of war bannts and overrides both nations.—De Blowitz in Harper’s.
