fHE ATHENS BANNER: TUESDAY MORNING. FEBRUARY 25, 1892 THE TOUR FINISHED- THE FARMERS’ lNSTITUJES WERE, A GREAT SUCCESS. DR. HUNNICUTT TALKS. And Says That the Movement In Fa vor of Sctentlflc'Methods In Re gard to Agriculture is Tak ing Hold of the Farmers. T ROMANTIC MARRIAGES The Farmers’Institutes have been firmly established in South Georgia,and during the coming months the move* ment will be carried into North Geor gia. The results that have already been ac complished cannot be spoken of too highly. They have been very highly beneficial in every respect and this, movement towards scientific methods' in the agriculture of Georgia will spiwl until at its touch the old red hills will become verdant and the waste places shall be recovered and the hillsides and valleys shall blossom as the rose. Drs. White and Hunnicutt have~re- turned from their lecturing tour through South Georgia, and say that the success met with was even greater than expected. Dr. Hunnicutt in speaking with a Fanner reporter yesterday said: “From the time weopened up at New- nan until we closed the term of lectures at Fort Valley, it was one round of en- ttiusiasm on the part of the farmers. We visited Newnan, Griffin, Guyton. Waycross,Thoma8ville,Albany,Cuthbeit and Fort Valley, and atevery placeex- cept the latter were met by a large crowd of enthusiastic farmers. AtFort Valley the small crowd was occasioned by a mistake in the advertisement of the meeting. The farmers took hold of the meet ings in earnest, they accorded us a hearty welcome at each place, and all appeared anxious to sieze upon any sug gestions to be offered on the subject of agriculture. “Prof. White lectured mainly upoD the relation of tho air and water to the soil, the value of fertilizer, the applica tion of chemistry as a science to agri culture, etc., while I adapted my lec tures to the section I happened to be in, talking mainly in favpt_of .deep p ing, the taking care and buildfn of lands, and the necessity of raising cotton cheaply. “I think a great deal of good was ac complishing by the tour, and if nothing else was done, the farmers were at least stirred up to i the point of thinking very deeply... the subject. "We will not conduct a regular lec turing schedule in North Georgia. We I will go from place to place as we can. I We have received urgeut invitations to ■ go to Cedartown, Thomson, Dalton, W Con vers, Waynesboro, Jeffersonville, ^ and other places in North Georgia, and will probably visit them all.” L In a future issue, Dr. Hunnicutt will * give the Bakxkk an account of this lec turing trip. STOCKHOLDERS MEET That Took Place Monday Night. There were two romantic marriages that took place in Georgia Monday night about twelve o’clock. And the ceremony was performed in the city of Griffin. The contracting parties were Mr. Howell Cobb and Miss Amarest Gray, of Americus; Mr. How ard Williams, of Atlanta, and Miss Jeannette Wales, of Woodbury. Miss Gray was on a visit to Miss Wales at her home in Wtndbury The Griffin German Club gave a Val entine ball Monday evening, and the young ladies went over to Griffin, some twenty miles distant, the guests of Miss Harris, of that city. The young ladies were escorted to the dancing pa vilion by some young gentlemen of the city. M68818. Henry McClesky and Jim B^oodworth, of Atlanta, were present, tad acted as the friends of Messrs. Cobh and Williams. About 10:45 o’clock Mr. McClesky joined Miss Gray and Mr. Bloodwortb joined Miss Wales. Both couples waltzed around the floor twice and then over to the doo^and without a word to their friends tripped rapidly out to two carriages which were in waiting. Mr. Cobb was in one of the carriages and Mr. Williams was in the other. Direc tions were quickly given, and the dri vers whipped their horses and away the carriages rolled. A drive of nearly two miles and the carriages stopped at the door of Kev. Mr. Daniel, a Baptist preacher. Mr. Daniel had been posted, and he was ready. Messrs. McClesky and Bloodworth were the only wit nesses. The marriage ceremony was brief and in a few minutes the happy couples were whirling back towards the bom** of Miss Harris, where the young ladies had stopped. There everything was packed in readiness for departure and soon the Strain come by that bore them on to ward Atlanta. In the Gate City, Mr. and Mrs Wil liams went to their home, and yester day Mr. and Mrs. Cobb arrived in Athens, where they are now the guestB of Prof, and Mrs. An drew J. Cobb, on Milledge avenue.

Hope PolhlH, a University Graduate, One of the Combatants. Macon, Ga., Feb. 17 —There was a lively fight in Macon yesterd morn ing, and Messrs. Hope Polhill and Ar thur Dasher, two young attorneys, were the combatants. Polhill is a mem ber of the firm of Giles, Preston and Polhill, and is a graduate of the Uni versity Law School; and Dasher is a member of the firm of D&aher& Jones. Polhill was severely cat in several places by Dasher, and Dasher was knocked down. From all' accounts it seems that Messrs. Dasher and Polhill, who are commissioners in the case of Pillips vs. the East Tennessee road, were taking the testimony of Mr. T. S. Sanford. During the bearing Commissioner Pol- bill wrote the evidence in a manner un satisfactory to Mr. Dasher, whereupon the latter insisted upon its being strick en out The hearing continued after some words bad passed, and when fin ished Mr. Dasher went ont of the room to get a blotter. Mr. Polhill followed him into the hall and, feeling aggriev ed at the language, used by Mr. Dasher, asked him for an explanation. The two returned into the room and, the explanation being unsatisfactory, engagedln a war of words, which ter minated in Mr. Polhill being struck by Mr. Dasher in the faoe. During the difficulty Mr. Dasher drew a small two-bladed penknife and, opening it, made several dashes at his opponent. One cut made a gash on the left side of Mr. Polhill’s nose,' extend ing from theTeft eye to the lip, another made a slight cut on the forehead, a third was a stab in the right wrist and a fourth a stab on the bead. Mr. Dasher was knocked down, it is said, but was not otherwise hurt. When the attorneys were seperated Polhill was bleeding profusely from his wonnd3. He was taken at onoe to 'the office of Qy Mettauer, and htf and Dr. Etheridge sewed up the cuts and sent him. to his home. Attorney Dasher re turned to his office. Blood could be s«*en everywhere, and a perfect trail of blood led from the room to Dr. Mettauer’s office. Mr. Polhill’s wounds, while not seri ous, are very painful. The gash on bis upper cheek and left side of his nose > quite deep, and the stabs in the forehead and right wrist will not heal for some time time.

The New York World in speaking of the work of the present House of Rep resentatives says: The Democratic] House has begun work in earnest for" the reform of the tariff and the r lief of the people. The committee on Ways and Means will next week report the first three bills framed for this purpose. These are the Springer free-woel hill, the Bryan free binding-twine hill, and Mr. Turn er’s measure to pat cotton ties, cotton bagging and the machinery for manu facturing the same on the free list. The free-wool bill .will benefit the wool-grower by permitting manufac tures to flourish which consume his product. The effect of the so-called protection to wool growers provided in the McKinley bill has been to decrease consumption and lower; prices. The measure will benefit manufacturers by giving them that free access to raw ma- t rials which their competitors in al< o her civilized.countries enjoy. It will benefit all the people by giving them cheaper olotbing and blankets. It will s imulate industry, increase trade and cheapen living. It will remove both the wool tax and the compensatory duties which the people now pay to mo nopoly. The binding twine bill is of less con sequence because the tax on binding twine is now very small. But there uo reason, except the will of the cordage trust, why the farmer should pay any tax at all upon the coarse string with which he binds his not always profita ble sheaves. Cotton ties and- cotton bagging are articles of prime necessity to the agri cultural interest of nearly half the country. The ties are used to bale both cotton and hay. Both ties and bagging are heayily taxed, and have been controlled by a grasping monopoly disposed to take to itself as much as pos sible of the scant profits of the agricul ture. These bill will pass the House, of course. A Democratic majority of 150 is pledged to offer that relief. It is not unlikely that they will pass the Senate _&lS3. -.The Republican majority there is not large) afinTti^clniJesmen whose constituents will surely res® san denial of snch relief. It easy to hold these men to the party pro gramme in voting for the McKinley bill. It will be much more difficult to control them against their convictions and againstthe demands of their States for partisan opposition to specifiio meas ures for the popular good. The policy of attack in detail has this advantage under existing circum stances, that it gives opportunity to ac complish something of reform, as .no other policy ,does, and should the blind obstinacy of the Senator) al majority or of the President defeat that purpose the issue of the people against monopo ly will be presented to the voters next fall in a form so simple that the least instructed can not mistake the mean ing. and men and women are but acton. But how can one act well his part if he suffers from dv if he suffers from dyspepsia ? BEECHAM’S Dec.^'^-wtf and Telegraph Co. JOHN..D. EASTER LIN, District Supt,, m I / ■ ;Yi Atlanta, Ga- .

A year later, scrofula, m the form of white swellings, appeared on various parts of my body, and for 11 years I was an invalid, being confined to my bed years. In that time ten or eleven sores ap peared and broke, causing me great pain and suffering. I feared I never should get well. ” Early In 18861 went to Chicago to visit a sister, but was confined to my bed most of the time I was there.
