ABSOLUTELY PURE FARMERS’INSTITUTES IN GEORGIA—THEY HAVE COMB TO STAY. DR. J. B. HUNNICUTT, Writes an Interesting Letter Descrip tive of the Tour of Dr, H. C. White And Himself—He Is Greatly En couraged—They tare Wel comed Everywhere—Sci entific Education sought For by the Parmers. W. C. T. U. “For Cod and Home and Humanity.” Thirteen million children are being taught scientific temperance instruc tion in the schools of forty four States of the Union at present. Editor Banner The above title is becoming somewhat familiar to our ears and will grow more so. The late tonr of the southern part of the state by Dr. H. G. White and myself was somewhat experimental. We started with some misgivings. But the outcome was so encouraging that it would not perhaps be claiming too much to say that the experimental stage in the great work is now passed. Starting in at Newnan, in Up per, Middle and Western Georgia we swept down the eastern side of the State across the entire Southern line and up the western, winding up at Fort Valley. Everywhere we were re ceived cordially, but very many assured us. that we had on hand a hard job, that there was much predjudice against the ideas we had come to advo- cate—against the University,—against the State College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts, and especially against scientific farming. But we had- pre pared our minds for this state of things, so no wise abashed we only requsted an opportunity to present our cause. After hearing us, resolutions of thankB were offered and unanimously and enthusiastically adopted by a rising vote. These were always accompanied by earnest invitations to come again. In several places our hotel bills were paid and the freedom of the town voted us. I make free to state these facts because they show more conclusively than any more words of mine could do the appre-. ciation of our work. We are very grateful personally for these repeats ,c y..-M5sis but we esteem them the more highly for the cause we represented. Higher education among the masses had never been tried in this way. It was a new application of of the University Extension idea, and the farmers are pleased with it. The field is white unto the harvest, but the labor ers are few” The demand is likely to be .in excess of our capacity. We are getting invitations numerous from divers places and societies. The distribution of Dr. White’s hand book, Ho. 1, “The Air and the Soil in Their Relations to Agricutture,” gives an air permanency to the work, and was received with great favor. Thous ands of farmers are today studying this important subject with new interest, As this will be followed from time to time by other numbers, great good is expected from this feature of the Far mers’ Institutes. In every place we visited, we have left a permanent or ganisation, represented by a chairman and secretary elected from among the farmers themselves, through whom fu ture meetings will be arranged and con ducted. We were received with open arms by the State Agricultural society at Cuthbert. We heartily thank Presi dent Waddell for oourtesies on that oc casion. We think we sowed good seed at Cuthbert. To the press both daily and weekly, we are much indebted for our success. They were exceedingly kind to us and we are sincerely gratified for their as sistance, we can only ask that they be as good in the future as the past, we could not expect or desire more. The Farmers Alliance oomposed as it is of the great bulk of our best farmers ex tended every where the right hand of weloome. They are doing a great work in educating themsleves and their work and ours lies along the same line. We think we may safely say the Fanners Institutes have A nomn to stay in Georgia Its future success will depend on the the character of its work. This, we hope to make worthy and enduring. We'expect, from time to,time, to utilize the beat brain of the State. Many of them have already promised their assis tance. When such men as P. Z. Berk- man, of Augusta, speaks to the farmers of Georgia on fruit culture, and Msj. G. M. Byals, of Savannah, ou Truoking and others equally well skilled on their specialties, they will go about their work more intelligently and more profitably. The object is to help the farmers farm more profitably'and pleasantly. The greatest need of the present hour is more brain power on the farm. A better understanding of the principles ofBcienoe which underlie success in agriculture. To furnish these is the mission of the State College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts. The highest interest of the farmers will be found in sustain ing this institution. “I have watched this temperance work for nearly fifty years, and but for this, England by this time, would have been altogether uninhabitable.” Sc add the late Earl of Shaftesburg. While it is very difficult to secure the exact figures, a very conservative esti mate has placed the annual liquor bill of the United States at one billion, one hundred million dollars! Having heard that inquiries have been made as to the Woman’s Christian Temperance Union, what it is, wbat .it proposes to do, etc., I will close this let ter with a brief sketoh of its origin, aims and progress, intending to write more in detail at some future time. The W. C. T. U has well been styled “the sober second thought of the crusade” of 1893. It was organized in 1884. It is a union of Christian women for the pur pose of educating the young into the nature and danger of alcoholic drinks, and the benefits of temperance; form ing a better public sentiment; reform ing the drinking classes by means of counter attractions, and by bringing to bear upon them the truths of the Bible; and securing the entire abolition of the liquor traffic. In order to accomplish this purpose, the work has been divided into departments under the general divisions of Organization, Preventive, Educational, social, and Legal. Mainly through the efforts of the W C. T. U-, Scientific Temperance Insti tution is given in the public schools of all the states, with the exception of six or seven, in the whole Nation. The‘National W. C. T. U. has forty- four auxiliary state Unions, and five territorial ones. It has a paid up membership of over 150,009. It has sent ont missionaries who have organized unions in Jap in, Africa, India, China, Australia and the Sandwich Islands. Lady Henry Som- erest of the British Woman’s ‘1 emper- ance Association is now in this country, working side by side with Miss Willard. But this inadequate sketch is only in tended as a glimpse, a sort of introduc tion for those readers who have asked “What is the W. C. T. U.,” and I hope they will continue their investigation.

Ed ison, the well known inventor, is being frozen out of the great interests of his own creation. The Edison general electric company, of which Edison was the chief stock holder, was organized three years ago by Henry Viliare. The plan recently has been perfected whereby the rival concern, the Thom- son-Houston Electric company will swallow np the Edison-General. The deal from all that can be learned was carried out without a concurrence of Edison. He has been opposed to it and will, it is understood, retire trom the board of directors. There is a report that Edison will or ganize an opposition company. HILL’S FINISHING TOUCHES.OI Everything in Readiness for ths New York Convention. Monday. Albany, Feb. 20.—Hill’s lieutenants have been busy all day putting the fin ishing touches to the preparations for Monday’s convention. The only connty in the state that is worrying them at all is Albany, which has thus far given no sign as to its preference. The Democratic organization in this connty is probably the strongest in the state, bnt it is doubtful if it will go into a packed convention to fight against snch overwhelming odds as will be pre sented. Should the decision qf the coun ty leaders be to fight, however, the or ganization is in splendid condition. In Cohoes, the only portion of the county where HiU ever had the shadow of a following, his followers were completely overthrown at the city convention. The rumor that a second convention would be called by the anti-Hill demo crats for May that has been ridiculed by the Hill men, to day began to cause some uneasiness. The committee of fifty from New York can not do any thing in the convention and are now making their plans to hold a separate meeting in Van Vechter hall here, and there is every indication that it will be a very lively one indeed. Civil Right* In Iowfk Des Moines, Feb. 20.—The Hyde- Hopewell case, involving the civil rights of a colored man, have been settled in favor of the defendant, HopewelL The court held that Hopewell had the right to refuse to serve Hyde in his restau rant, and that the fact of the latte being a colored man did not enter into the case. In other words, the Testae rant business is a private one, like a dry goods or grocery stove, and differs from an inn, and the proprietor may sell or not to any one who enters the store. Opening.

He bad adjusted a strap around his neck, and was just in the ac> of swinging himself, when interfered with. The cause of this rash act was that he had grown tired of working for the city. Fire in Montezuma. Montezuma, Ga., Feb, 20.—About 12:30 o’clock yesterday morning fire was discovered in the dry.goods store of Louis Lippman. It soon consumed the three brick stores occupied by Louis Lippman, dry goods and groceries, and the bar of of Gabe Lippman. Nothing was saved from these houses; partially insured. Just as the firemen were getting the fire under control the engine gave out Then it looked as if the entire block would be swept away. Fortunately, however, a calm prevailed, and the flames finally died out. The losses are: Louis Lippman, $5,000; insured for $2,500. E. W. West brook, building, $1,000; H. L.

Thomasville, Ga., Feb. 20.—Miss Watson, daughter of Mr. Tillman Wat son, of this county, was burned to death yesterday. The accident occurred in the morning, but she lingered in horri ble agony until last night, when death came to her relief. A strange coinci dence is that Miss Watson met her fate only a little over a mile from where Miss Rosa Singletary was fatally burn ed only a couple of weeks ago.

Tombstone, Feb. 20.—The Mexicans who live in the little village of Sebolla, abont fifteen miles southwest of this city, are greatly exercised over a series of mysterious murders, which have all undoubtedly been committed by tbe same person. The first case was abont- six weeks ago, when a girl about 17 years old was found dead on a hill hear the town. The only sign of violence about her was a deep mark on her throat, showing the imprint of large fingers, as if she had been choked to death. There was a small cat on the fore head in the shape of a rude cross, but this was supposed to have been done by the body falling to the ground after the girl had been killed. The people had not gotten over the excitement of this murder when they fonnd dead, almost In the same place, a woman with ex actly the same marks on her. Her throat showed the marks of strangula tion, while on her forehead was the rude cross. Then followed in quick succes sion four other murders—two men, a woman and a boy—showing that the murderer made no distinction of persons. It is beleived that the work has been done by some insane man who must be very powerful, for there are no signs of violence abont the places where the bodies are found, and the victims must have been grasped with such awful strength that they had no time to struggle before they were dead. Re ports^ have come in of a strange man who is Baid to live in a cave in a moun tain, and who shnns every body and flees when any one approaches his place. It is probable that this man is the mur derer, and a search is now being made for him by friends of the people who have been killed and officers. A Gambler** Deed. Chicago, Feb. 20.—A Los Angeles, Cal., dispatch says: In November, 1891, a priestly looking man hired a room at a lodging house here. One morning he was found in his room with a flood of blood issuing from his mouth and a bloody razor in his hand. On examina tion it was found that he had cut off his tongue. Nothing could be learned from him abont his identity. He had plenty of money and paid his bills with out question. After his wound healed be disappeared. It now tarns ont that his name is George Wilson. He was garbed as a priest, bnt he is a profes sional gambler, His family is wealthy and lives in New York. His father has just died ahd left au estate of $150.- 000, $50,000 of which goes to him.

Nashville, Tenn., February 20.— The mystery surrounding the life of “Henry’* Armstrong, who for twenty- five years lived at Juuto, near this city, in disguise of a man, and who was in reality a woman, has been solved. In looking over the effects left by this strange person a diary was found that shows when a young girl she loved not wisely but too well a heartless villain who betrayed and left her. Woman-like, she still loved her betrayer and to be near him disguised herself and followed him into the late war and was his companion around the camp fire, on the march and amid the strife of battle. When he was struck down she nursed him while his life blood ebbed away. The woman’s name was Myra Law rence. She was 60 years old, paid poll tax and voted the Democratic ticket. She was never suspected of beiDg a woman, as she was quite manly in appearance and was not in the least effeminate. NOT GOD, DUT YOU. There is a very mistaken idea, among young Christains especially, that Oh-tsi died to reconcile God tc us, and tbe picture is of an angry sovereign appeased by sacri fice. Dear young Bible readers, compare this with that divine—that divinest—repre sentation of God, given us in tbe parable of the grodigal son, Was that Father angry? Did his heart need to be changed toward the sinning child? Nay, nay, traithe son needed to be brought to himself, to have a new heart given him, so that be might arise snd go, and be reconciled to his Father. Christ did not die to change his Father’s heart to you, hut to chauges yours to him. God already loved you, while you were a hardened, unrepetant, swine-feeding sin ner, it was you who stayed far away from him. “Isn’t that just what the Apostel says (only you afien read it backward): “God in Christ reconciling the world UDto him self.” “When we were enemies, we weie reconciled;’’ “We pray you, be ye recon ciled to God ” Never, never think of God in any other light than our dear Lord sets him in, th-i loving, forgiving Father, waiting ai.d watching for the son’s.; return.—For ward. THE HAPINESS OF WORK. George Macdonald remarks that good women are disposed to think that, of two courees of action'open to their choice, that which involves the larger amount of p in and hapiness must ho the better. Tui < view is by no means confined to good women, or any other kind of women. From the beginning of the history of our race, there bcs been a disposition to asso ciate tbe highest conceptions of duty with tbe undergoing of paing, not as n means t<> some belter end, but as a good thing in ii- self. In every form of faith we find the so- called and miscalled element of “asceti cism.” From tbe faker swinging on an iron hook to the Scotch elder pouring cold water into his soup because it was too good f. r such a sinner as he was, it fanges through all strata of the world's thought. Theie is one exception to this,—it is not in tbe Bible. Neither the Old Testamen j nor the New invites us to impose pain on ourselves, or to regard it as other than an evil to be borne for tbe sake of some defi nite good. The New ; Testament, like Eiibu in tbe book of Job, recognizes that God sends pain and trouble for discipl- nary purpose. But it never sets people to choose pain or trouble for themsetves, ex cept as the acceptauce of them is inciden tal to some greater good, that cannot b< had without them. This is true meaning of the much-abused word “asceticism.” It is tbe exercise (Greek, askesis) of the gymnasium, which involves trouble in the present for a clearly disc, rued object AU education is of ibis character. It is taking the limp and un trained powers of mind, 01 muscleu of tbe bo ly, and giving them tbe discipline which will make their best activity not only possible but pleasant. For this reason every wise teacher recognizes tbe truth that there are limits to tbe business of making studies too easy. He knows that a certain amount of severe effort needed by tbe pupil. It would be like taking half from tbe lift-weights in the gymnasium, if he were to explain every thing to the pupil. Education must be, in nearly all cases, a process of trouble and of pain. Just because the young mind i.- immature, it must dislike tbe word laid upon it. Tbe college student’s sense of a burden laid upion him is the mark of hi- immatnrity; and, if he really does bis work every year makes it less burdensome; be cause he grows more of a man. Young people are apt, therefore, to place tbe true happiness of life in its boure of leisure and of enjoyment Such times fill a large place in their life. Oldei people sometimes fail to sympathize with them in this, because they do Dot realize how irksome work is to persons of un developed powers. Everybody has his laugh at the boy who is too sick to go to school. Sawed Open His Throat. Gbeekburg, Pa., Feb. 20—George Grumbling, a prominent business man of Ninevah, while suffering from grip, arose from hia bed and going to a win dow broke a pane of glass. Then plac ing his neck and throat through the hole he deliberately sawed his throat over the roughened ends of the glass. A physician was called, who Be wed the wounds up, but while the physician’s back was turned the apparently dying man placed his bead under the cover and tore out the stitches, lacerating the gaping wound afresh. Before any thing could be done for him he was dead. A Reward for a Missing Man. Calhoun, Ga., Feb. 20.—It is under stood that Mr. H. J Doughty will pay a liberal reward for the arrest and de livery at the Gordan county jail of L. L Abbott, the young map who recently swindled him and skipped to parts un known. Abbott was the man employed by Doughty to sell lightning rods, and wound up by not only seliiDg the rods, but tbe mules and wagon also, and and pocketing the money. He is now supposed to be in Colarado. Philadelphia, Feb. 19.—An address has been issued by the executive com mittee of the Pennsylvania Republican association, an organization which has been perfecting its plans for some months past, and the object of which is to prevent M. S. Quay’s re-election to the United States senate and to secure the choice of some able and loyal Re publican as his successor. The move ment, it is said, is entirely separate and distinct from that which *was ineffect ually launched against Quay last fall and proceeds from prominent business, professional and working men, who have uniformly supported the Republi can party, but have taken no active part in politics. Substantially the address runs thus: To the Republican voters of Pennsyl vania: Believing that the best interests of the Republican party demand the defeat of Mr. Quay at the expiration of his present term, and that he should be succeeded by a Republican possessed of the qualities necessary to the fulfilment of the duties of that high and responsi ble position, we hereby appeal to you for you support in our effort to ac complish this result. A point has been reached where, unless action is taken within the Republican party to deprive Mr. Qnay of further capa city for disastrous leadership, the party in this state will utterly fail to achieve its true mission, and will, sooner or later, meet with final over throw. We will briefly outline our reasous for opposing his re-election to the United States senate. We oppose him because he has forced unpopular nominations aud platforms which have brought defeat to the party. Because by reason of his frequent ab sence from the senate and the diversion of his time from office he has failed to do the work he should have done in be half of legislation of importauce to the state of Pennsylvania. Because of his attempts to embarrass the present sound and patriotic admin istration, due to the fact that the fed eral offices iu this state were not placed entirely at his disposal. Because he has repeatedly opposed the nomination of the Hou. James G. Blaine for the presidency, when the overwhelming sentiment of the Repub lican voters of the state was for his se lection, and recently has pretended to be ardently in favor of him, in order that he might secure national delegates whom he could dispose of to his own advantage. Because he has had primaries and conventions called long before there was any necessity for so doing, in order to forestall a growing public sentiment against him or his candidates. Because he has placed men in offices or positions so hampered by pledges to him that they cannot faithfully perform their duties to the state or their party. We issue this address by the authority of the Pennsylvania Repnblican associ ation, whose executive committee we are, which is organized and has repre sentatives in every Republican connty of the state, and which was born of the necessity for concerted action to oppose the banded officialism which has been at the beck and call of Mr. Quay. A Mexican Wan Blown Up. San Angelo, Tex, Feb. 19.—A Mexi can named Manuel Roquillo was terri bly wounded while blasting in a cis tern. The blast went off while he was holding his face directly over it. His eyes were completely blown out and the flesh tom from his face and arms, dis figuring him beyond recognition. A stone as large as a hen egg was taken from his stomach. The Mexican, after being wounded, with the assistance of a guide, walked half a mile to a drug store. He cannot recover. Here is a mistake made by a lawyer re-< cently, who lives in Brunswick, it shows tbe force of habit, and how strongly in tense interest in a subject impresses the mind: “Brunswick has among its votaries of Blackstone one lawyer, at least, who night and morning offers family prayers. Some time since he had been very much interes ted in tbe defense of a man who had killed another man, and just the day before bad made a strong speech in his defense. “The next morning at family prayers he started a petition with, ‘Hay it please your honor,’ whed he suddenly discovered wbat he had said, and thinking to improve on it, said, ‘May it please the court.’ ” The lawyer’s manner of addressing tbe court was not so much amiss after all. There is one Advocate who never fails to please “the court” and to uphold its honor. He fully uaderstauds the rules of the court in which he practices. He clearly grasps every fact in every case, thoroughly understands the law- and knows exactly how to apply it-to the facts. He is as much concerned for the digDity of the court aDd for tbe demands of jus tice as he is for the acquittal of bis client. His please never fail. He never makes mistakes, nor loses a case. It is “Our Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ, the righteous.” Put your case in his hands.—Index. Killed Over an Election Quarrel. Birmingham, Ala , Feb. 20.—There was a municipal election at Warrior yes terday, in which* prohibition was the chief issue and won. After the election several men on both sides got to discuss- ing prohibition, and a drunken “anti” named Geerge Kaley began cursing the other side. O. B. Williamson took it up, but Kaley was too quick for him, and killed him by shoottng him in the head with a pistol. Revolt Against White Republicans.

The purchasers will improve the property, or a large part of it, in the spring, thus adding materially to the prosperity of the city. A MIRACULOUS CURE. A Savannah Yoons Lady Suddenly lie- covers from a Serious Injury. . Savannah, Feb. 20.—Something has occurred here which was looked upon by many people as a miracle. It was the sadden curing of Miss Emma Evans when all hnman aid had proved fruit less of beneficial results. Miss Evans was thrown from a baggy while ont riding eighteen months ago, and her spine was severely injured. Since then she has been coufined to an invalid’s chair, unable to move. . Dr. Harris and other prominent phy sicians of Savannah have been in con stant attendance noon her, and while some improvement was noted, it was the.r opinion that she would never be able to work again. They were therefore surprised when they learned that the young lady was walking abont the house, and still fur ther surprised to learn that her cure was considered a miracle. She is a de vout member of the Duffy street Bap tist chuich of Savaunah, and spent a great deal. of her time in prayer and reading the Bible. "She has prayed constantly for re covery, and has bad the prayers of the church members, and she claims that it was God working through human agents that cured her.
