TO RE-ORGANIZE hosier; and small wares wnrrc* *h. ■> • A.THEN8 BANNER TUESDAY MORNING FEBRUARY 2, lfijfl ~ THE YOUNG MEN’S DEMOCRATIC CLUB WILL MEET SOON And Elect a Pull Set of New Officers— It VW111 Put Itself In Shape to Help Fight the Democra cy’s Battle. WE LOST NO LAST WEEK WAS A BUSY ONE AT MAX JOSEPHS Athens has always been a centre of democracy; has given to the state some of her most illustraous democratic lead ers; and is still turning out young democrats, who in time will take their stand alongside after leading statesmen of the day. The Young Men’s Democratic Club of Clarke county Is one of the healthiest clubs of its kind in the South. It was organized some time Binoe and its first president was Col. Ebb P. Upshaw, now of Atlanta. It then re-organized last year and elected Mr. F. M. Hughes, president; Mr. Remsen Crawford, vice- president and Mr. B. B. Porter, secreta ry and treasurer. The club has held several enthusias tic meetings and has done much towards awakening that proper Democratic zeal among the young men of Athens and Clarke county. One by one its oflloera have left the city, however. Mr. Crawford has gone to Atlanta, Mr. Porter leaves Monday for Hiawassee college, and Mr. Hughes will in a short while remove to Atlanta This will, of course, necessitate re organization on the part of the club Hence at an early date, just before President Hughes leaves for the Gate City the club will bold a meeting for the purpose of re-organizing. A presi dent, vice president aud secretary and treasurer will be elected to fill the va cancies among the officers. . No names have as yet been mention ed for the places, bu’ there will be no trouble in securing energetic and en thusiastic officers for this splendid Young Men’s Club. Many persons were surprised and many were not. The former did not expect to see such Great Bargains, while the knew, when I advertise bargains, they are here in quantities. Naturally such a tremendous large stock as was sold t () ^ from the bankrupt sale could not be disposed of in one day. I divide them out in lots. It is a Receiver’s duty to get all t can for the creditors. The more he realizes, the larger his pay. A Receiver’s Sale means good prices for goods. The longer time it takes him to sell it, the larger are his salaries Self-preservation is the first law of nature. This cannot be my case. 1 bought the bankrupt stock from one the largest creditors and he was the sufferer. Fifty cents on the dollar on some goods, and 33 cents on the dollar is all I want. It is money I must realize now. I care not \ quick the stock vanishes from my counters and still less at what price. But I want to distribute" these bargains. Such will be an advertisement for jne in the future. Guard the Time, From 7 to 12 o’clock.

He is nearly eighty years old, and dur ing his entire life has never taken any medicine. He is opposed to medicine and be lieves that it brings upon humanity half the ills of which it complains. He is a hale, hearty old man and Ms only rule Is in regard to his diet which he observes with scrupulous regularity. Many mornings he plunges into a cold water hath, and he is a great ad vocate of walking as a health exercise His health record is certainly a wonder fulone.

Judge Newsome and Mr- Glen Waters At Outs. <#►' Everybody in Athens remembers Mr, Glenn Waters, an old Uniyersity boy who is now a reporter on the Evening Herald in Atlanta. And better known here is Judge David Newsome, the “Song-Bird Journalist.” The Judge became offended at an ar ticle in the Herald written by Waters and challenged him to a duel. The chal lenge was accepted and Oakland ceme tery fixed as the place of meeting. But the duel for some reason didn’t come off. The Judge declares he ready to spill blood, to fight to the bitter end, to kill, or be killed. AN EARLY SPRING. That Is What an Old Citizen Predicts “You may say to the readers of the Banner,” said an old citizen yesterday “that it is the prediction of an old man who has seen many seasons come and ~o, and who has been during his entire life, a close observer of the different phenomena of nature, that this year will witness the earliest spring known in many years.

"BweSSfltfc* • l .'■'if* Q Pope, of Oglethorpe, yesterday and had a very pleasant chat with him on the public issues of the day. How are the different Alliances throughout the State getting along?” Well from all that I can see and hear,” replied Col. Pope, “they are in as good condition as could be expected by their best well-wishers. Of course, dull times and other causes have ihin- ued the attendance on some of the Al liances, but they will all pick up in that direction now. The Alliance is as firmly determined to accomplish its ends now as ever in its history.” . “Is there as much division in the ranks of Alliance men as is reported in some of tbepapers? “No, it is a mistake that the Alliance is going to pieces from internal dissen sions. There is some division of sen timent among Alliancemen on tbe sub- jeot of a third party, hu* 1 think I can safely say that the big majority of the Alliancemen are perfectly willing to stick by tbe demoor&lio party and wait and see what tbe present democratic 'House will do in the matter of finan cial relief.” “My own belief is that the House will show its determination to secure fi nancial relief and do all in its power in this direction, and although it may be unable to secure it on account of a re publican President and Senate, it will illustrate its faith in the question of re lief.” “There is no doubt in my mind but that the greatest question now before the public is the financial question. It not only effects this nation, but all oth ers, and it is crying out for a settle ment. The farmers and tbe masses of people are waging their warfare along this line. Mr. Livingston’s resolution is a good one and goes to the bottom of the ques tion. If carried to its logical conclu sion it means a great deal toward the settlement of this question. There is no doubt but that the first step to be taken is to throttle speculation. As long as a great part of the circulating medium is looked up in speculation on cotton, wheat, and other crops, there can be no substantial relief to the de pressed money market. “It behooves the democratic party to secure the right kind of a platform in order to win. It needs a platform more than a candidate, for the battle is for “measures, uot men.” Tbe Ocala de mands are good democratic doctrine, and if the next democratic platform em bodies the planks of financial relief, tariff reform, and economy in govern mental affairs, the candidate of that party cannot be defeated.” condition yesterday and little hopes are entertained of bis recovery.

The Girl Who Cut the Throat of Her Girl Lover- Mkmphis, Tenn., Jan 29 —Alice Mitchell, the girl murdeter, is in jai here, and spends her time) in the room with Sallie Johnston. But little has come to the public through interviews, but it is learned tha - on all other sub jects she seems to be perfectly rational and did not realize tbe enormity of the deed. “I killed Freda,” she said, “because I loved her and she refused to marry me. I asked her to marry me three times and at last she consented. We were going to marry here and go to St. Louis.” “What did you intend to do in St. Louis?” asked her attorney. “Ob, I don’t know. Bat when Fre da promised to marry me I was so hap py. I sent her an engagement ring and she wore it for a time, but it was return ed to me and I was miserable. 1 could not bear to be separated from her and I resolved to kill her. I would rather she were dead than away from me” The girl then asked one of tbe law yers where Freda was. She was told that the body was at Steinley & Hin doo’s. “Oh, mamma,” she said, “if I could only see her. Please let me go to see her. If 1 could only lie down by her side I would be so happy.” When permission was refused she broke into tears, not for having killed Freda, but for separation. Letters that she wrote to Freda are full of the most endearing terms, and go to show that the girl eagerly looked forward to the time when she could make Freda her wife. INTERESTING DEVELOPMENTS. A Hard Hearted Mother.—It is said that an Athens young man was al most in tears yesterday, owing to the fact that his mother refused to buy a paper doll for him. His must have been a hard hearted mother, not to have humored him in this little whim H> is Getting Better —Mr. A. Do zier, of Oglethorpe county, who has been quite sick for some time at his home near Lexington, 1b improving somewhat in his condition. Mr. Do zier is the father of Capt. T.

Macon, Ga , Jan. 29.—The commiss ion today declined to grant whiskey liBcense to parties who desired to open bar-rooms within three miles of a church, as it would be a violation of the law enacted by the last General Assem bly. Hon R. W. Patterson appeared before tbe commission as attorney for the applicants, claiming the law to be unconstitutional. Tbe commissioners declared that the legality of the law was for the courts to decide. The case may be appealed. More Codes- Atlanta, Ga., Jau. 29 —Gov.

Jan., 29 —The Cbes ter cotton mill lies in ashes. This morn* ng about 2 o’clcck the watchman .who was attending to his duties in the boiler room noticed a strong smell* of smoke and going outside discovered fire breaks ing through the room of the boiler house. He gave the alarm and tbe whole town was soon at the scene. The mill was not furnished with automatic sprinklers, and owing to the position of the fire the mill waterworks could not be used. In a short time the whole building was in flames, and in two hours this splendid mill, the pride of Chester, was in ruins. The mill, ma chinery and stock were insured for $151,000, which will nearly cover the loss, divided among twenty- eight companies, the Home, of New York, and Liverpool, London and Globe being the heaviest losers. A small ohurch near by caught fire aud was also completely destroyed. There were about 150,000 ya'ds of cloth io the mill await ing shipment. The origin of the fire is a mystery. Secretary Babcock said this morning that the mill would be rebuilt immediately and tbe hum of the ma chinery would be heard again within, a year. -f" / ' Thej Are Brought Out by the Coroner’s Investigation at Indianapolis. Indianapolis, Jan. 30.—Coroner Man- ker has taken the testimony of ten of the patients at the Surgical institute, and several of them told the story of their peril aud escape in the most graphic manner. Miss Leonora Knowles said that she and eight other patients were sleeping in a room on the third floor, and were awakened by an alarm of fire from one of her room mates. She knew where the fire escape and stairway were, hut she jumped from the window upon the shed roof below, and was fol lowed by all the others, except Minnie McDonald, who remained to dress her self, and was burned to death. The witness did: not hear any alarm at her door and did not believe any was given. Her escape by the stairway was cue off by the fire before she was awakened. Dr. McLain, the house physician, testi fied that patients were required to re main at the institution, and confessed that treatment had been refused to pa tients because they would not board there. HARRISON’S BLUNDER. The Result of the Chilian Controversy? Washington, Jan. 30.—The bottom has dropped eat of the war talk. All ti>e latest explanations confirm the be lief that President Harrison is convict ed of the worst blunderism ever placed on exhibition. It is now conceded that Chili’s apolo gy was here before the president’s mes sage was read. The president says he didn’t know it. Then who did know it? To whom was it delivered? Why was it squelched till the wires had carried the president’s message over the country? When these questions are answered, the Democracy will smile at the bra vado of the Republican president. The best Democratic opinion seems to favor holding up on the president for a while and resting confident in the belief that diring the quiet weeks ahead, plenty of time will- be given to show the motive of his action te the fair minded Amete ‘ lean public.

He attacked the sleeping girl with a sharp knife, slashing at her throat un til the victim’s head was nearly severed and her body gashed in a terrible man- BURNED TO DEATH. Destruction of a Tennessee Home, and the Demented Son Perishe* Nashville, Jan. 80.—About 10 o’clock the residence of R. T. Bell eight miles from this city was burned to the ground and & life went out in the flames. Mrs. and Mr. Bell were awakened by the screams of their 22-year old son Thomas, who occupies a room just above the one they were in. For some time Thomas has been de mented, and his parents thought the screaming was dne to the ravings of his mind. Then the crackle of the flames reached them, followed by the flames reaching down throngh the ceiling. Mr. Bell hurried his wife out of dan ger, and rushed to his son’s room. As he opened the door the floor of the room fell through, and Thomas lay in the em brace of the destractive demon. The house was destroyed^ Loss, $1,- 200. During the morning the bones of the yonng man were taken from the ashes. COTTON MEN MEET. The Convention of Planter and Oth In Augusta. A Man Meets Death Smilingly.

A Cardinal Disobeys the Pope. Paris. Jan . 8.—Manager Richard, cardinal archbishop of Paris, who, a few days ago. received a letter from the pope in which he was requested to in struct the French clergy to cease all op position to the republic and to follow to the utmost the pope’s policy of concilia tion, has written a letter to his holiness declaring that he is unable to communi cate to French bishops the requests con tained in the pope’s letter. Cardinal Richard gives as his reason for not obeying the mandate of the pope that he does not consider it opportune to do so.
