THE FAVORITE SURVEY.
Three Surveys Have Been Run for
The G. C, 8t N.—The Most Feasible
One.
it is reported from an authentic
source that there have been three sur
veys run through Athens by the en
gineering corps of the Georgia, Caro
lina & Northern railroad.
One of these surveys is said to be
through the Northern portion of the
city, crossing the Oconee near the
North Eastern railroad-, and passing
out by Rock College.
Another survey which is the most ex
pensive and most impractical of all
leads through East Athens, crossing
the Oconee with a costly bridge one
hundred feet high and passing up
Strong street out to the western su
burbs. •
The most favored route of all, how
ever seems to be the one leading
through the southern suburbs of the
town ami passing out through the city
hir.ds. This survey will not be expen
sive to the company, and places the
ii*ad on an elevation that extends for
miles out of the city.
The suburbs on the southern portion
of Athens are becoming richer every
day by this decision on the part of tlie
surveyors, and the lands on Fair View-
Heights have grown to be the most
valuable in Athens.
A Duel to the Death on Running Horses
Decatur, Tex , April 29.—{.Special.]
—Andrew Foster and Will Jaruagin,
two young farmers, who lesided at
Gum, west of here, had an encounter
to-day. The former is fatally wouiule I
and the latter is dead.
Several mouths ago Foster assisted
the lover of Jarnugin’s sister to elope
wita her. The young men have been
enemies since. Last night in returning
from d meeting, met in the highway.
Jaruagin drew his pistol, and aimostat
the same time F- ster was ready. They
tired simultaneously. Each shot took
effect, a ball entering Foster’s right
cheek and lodging on the inside of the
skin on the left temple, while one
pierced Jarnagin through just above
the heart.
They were both on horse-back, and
their horses ran with the n in the same
direction. They continued firing until
Jarnagin emptied his pistol, and Foster
had shot three times. Jarnagin drop
ped from his horsa at the end of 100
yards, and died in a few minutes. Fos
ter was iaken to a neighbor’s house.
Foster is 19 years of age and Jarnagin
was 20.,

CAMPAIGN CHAT.
hon, j.t. olive will run for
the congressional seat.
Five Possible Candidates From Put
nam, Wilkes, Morgan and Ogle
thorpe Counties—A General View
of the Situation Seen by the Un
biased Eyes.
Anotiicr candidate for Congress.
It is the rumor that is afloat, and is
more than likely true, that Hon. J. T.
Olive, of Oglethorpe county has enter
ed the campaign for Congress.
It is at least-true that Mr. Olive has
had repeated calls from the many farm
er friends to whom he lays claim, and
it may be safely counted on that he will
enter the race.
Mr. Olive is the author of the famous
Olive bill that called forth such heated
discussion in the Georgia legislature
last term. On that score aud through
other ways, he has caught a firm hold
upon his constituents, and will hold a
strong hand iu the game of chance for
congressional honors in tbe eigtb. Mr.
Olive, it is said, has been casting out a
feelling hand for his strength with the
Alliance, and finds that he stands most
firmly w ith that vote. His position in
the legislature has been a great step for
him to further laurels and it can not
be doubted but that he is already one of
the most dangerous candidates for Con
gress to each and all of his opponents.
If he is backed by the Alliances he
will be certain to get the seat in Con
gress, f.ir the farmers will put in whom
soever they will. The power of this or
ganization is no longer doubted now.
Of course, the lateness of Mr. Olive’s
announcement may have something to
do with retarding his chances, but he
will make a good race even yet.
No doubt of that.
Ag ntlcmnn from Hartwell, who has
been travelling through that section of
the eighth district, sa, s thaljJudge Law-
son is somewhat ahead, apparently, in
that region. He says that Hon. Frank
Colley lias quite a firm footing, but
that the opinion is that Judge Lawson
will get Elbert county.
The counties iu this region are the
ones that offer the engaging fields for
battle between the candidates now so
many think. Right here in Clarke it
is known that the situation so far has
been doubtful. Frank Colley has many
fri. nds here who will do a great work
for him. So has Judge Laws, n, as for
that matter, but the candidacy of Mr.
Olive—whai of it?
The situation is somewhat complica
ted, to say the least of it, and nobody
knows who the next congressman is go
ing to he.
Lawson*Uolley, Gibson, Foster and
Olive!
That is tbe great galaxy of names
that may be chosen from.
It is, of course, not certain that Judge
Gibson will run as he has never yet
made a formal announcement of bis
candidacy. His many friends aud of
course their names is legion—will bring
every influence to bear to urge him into
t!ie race, but it may be that he will not
consent even then to run.
The other candidate , however, may
l»e relied on to draw lances, and some
genuine political excitement to ensue.
The people are thinking more than
they are telling, and it isdilticult to con
jecture just yet how the campaign may
end in Clarke even between Lawson aud
Colley who have both been here inves
tigating their outlook.
The Banner is a curious spectator
like many others at present, awaiting
further developments.
No liniment is in better repute or more
«idely known than l)r. J. H. McLean’s Volcan
ic Oil Liniment. It is • wonderful remedy.

There are many scenes around Athens
that were dear to the memory of the

always claimed a sort spot in the. me.n-

It was reported yesterday that Mr. J*
T. Voss, tlie efficient and successful
manager of the Athens Street Railway
will extend li-s street car line to Lilly
I’ark.
Mr. Voss is interested in building up
no particular part of Athens against

fiat he will if the public ueed demand
it, build liis line to the Lilly Lands and
will run a thorough and complete rail
way to that part of the city.

tlie superior advantages of the place.
The sale of this land is attracting a

THE OLDEST.
A Paper Published In Athens 61 Years
Ago.
A reporter of the Banner was shown
yesterday by Mr. VV. S. Story, of Ta-
leilega, Ala., a relation of Joe and Billy
Orr, of our oily, a paper published in
Athens over sixty-one years Ago. The
publisher was O. P. Shaw and tbe paper
bears date of February 24, 1829. Sub
scription price three dollars per year.
The name of the paper is the Atheniau,
and like its successor, t e Banner, is
brim full of news. The Athenian has
an account of President Jackson’s arri
val in Washington City on his election
to the Presidency of the United States
The account of his reception is
hunnicutts eloquence.
The Candidate for Commissioner
SB Crows Eloquent in Cedartown.
gMr. James B. Hnnnicutt, the brother
of Athens’ genial townsman, Dr. A”
Hnnnicutt, is an eloquent speaker.
His campaign for Commissioner of
Agriculture has bronght out this fact
most absolutely. In Cedartown the
other day, Mr. Hnnnicutt made a great
speech with* a peroration like this:
“Tbe laws of electricity have been
the same since creation’s morn, bui the
application of electric power to the uses
of man is of recent date. As we now
harness the heavenly steed nnd make
him transport our thoughts the world
around, light our streets and rnn our
cars, so when we get on the right line
of education, we will unveil the now
bidden laws of plant growth, and by
their development make the red oldhilis
of Georgia smile with verdure rich, and
all her long vales clothe themselves with
peace, prosperity and plenty. Bedecked
with streams as beautiful as flow on
earth, canopied by a sky of as lovely
azure as e’er hung over Italy’s vales;
crowned with mountains as picturesque
as adorn Switzerland’s snow-capped
peaks; fanned by breezes as sweet as
e’er floated o’er Ceylon’s isles; with a
soil as rich and varied in its capabilities
as; any land beneath the sun, dear old
Georgia, thy possibilities are brighter
than an Elysian dream!
“A proper administered Department
of Agriculture will make this dream of
beauty an experience of prosperity.
I.et us have better methods of culture.
Cut down the acres and run up tlie
profits.
“Blessed dawn of a better day, may
thy promise ripen into noonday splen
dor. As commissioner of Agriculture it
would be my ambition and pride to help
you, fellow-farmers, to work out this
glorious destiny.”

SICKENING WRETCHEDNESS.
A Disgraceful Hovel Found by the
San Francisco Police.
bAN Francisco, C J-, Apni 30. (Special)
One of the worst cases of depravity,
wretchedness and insanity that ever came
under the notice of the 8aa Franciaco Po
lice Department was unearthed l> - lay
when the officers went to search for Abbie-
tbe 16-year-old daughter of Mrs. Uargari t
Margot, who was wanted tor stealing some
girl’s trinkets and veils fron a Broadway
school. Officers Holbrook and Dagan went
to a place iu the rear of Dupont street in
search of ABnie.
The girl, her siaiei Mamie, aged 10, and
the mother,a raving maniac,were living in
the hovel which measured exactly 6 by 10
feet. They bad just room to move about,
but tbe tallest could n it stand erect.There
was one small window in tbe place, but it
was so dirty that it was of no use for iu
orignal purpose. Tbe den was almost pitch
dark. Mrs. Margot atood at tbe door and
would not allow auyune to enter. She wa»
foaming at the mouth and threatened to
cleave the officers in twain if they dared
go near lit r. She instinctively knew that
tney were about to take her children from
b* r and (ought like a lioness.
Fm tlly tbe officers gained an entrance.
The hovel was reeking with filth. There
was no furniture in the place. Ia fact.theiv
was no room for it There was a heap of
dirty rags ou one side, and on them all
three slept. Tbe younger daughter, though
10 years old or more, had never been to
school but wandered about the alley from
day t» day like a vagrant out picking up
what she could find, abused and jeered at
by other chddren. She was taken in charge
to-day by theS-ciety for the Prevention ot
Cruelty to Children and will be cared for
Tlie elder sister will be seat to tbe Magda

m aher has had no control of her for a

she chose.
No one knows how the mother live>:
herself or u-ared her children when young.
She did do*, leave the hovel, for which she
p»id the magnificent rental ot ♦2 a month

THE ARNOLD’S FINED.
TERRIBLY BURNED.
AN ATLANTA YOUNG LADY MEETS
AN ACCIDENT
Which Will Probably End In her Death
—While Cooking Her Clothes Catch
From the Stove and She la
Burned.
Atlanta, Ga., April 30.—{Special.]
—A few minutes before two o'clock this
afternoon a young lady was horribly
burned while preparing dinner at a gas
stove.
At No. 115 East Fair street Miss Fan
nie Walker was cooking dinner, being
alone in an upstairs room.
The stove on which she was cooking
was a small gas stove, and in some way
she got too near the stove and her dress
came in contact with the flame.
She lost all presence »f mind, and
rushed from the room down stairs. See
ing no one about the place she ran to
the next house and fell upon the
porch.
While running the burning clothing
were fanned by the current of air, and
she waa completely enveloped in flames*
Some one heating the unfortunate
young lady’s screams and seeing her
iu the yard, gave the alarm of fire from
box 35 and, the department responded
quickly.
Wien picked up Miss Walker was
nearly unconscious. Those who found
her threw blankets ^ou: her and car
ried her into the house, and physicians
were sent for.
Ae soon as the fireman arrived Chief
Joyner helped to carry the young lady
into the parlor where she was placed
in as comfortable position as possible,
and the still burning clothing taken
from her.
Dre. Noble and Armstrong soon ar
rived aud did all possible to relieve the
patient’s horrible suffering.
She was burned from head to foot,
and in many places the flesh was terri
bly scorched and blistered.
Her suffering was int< nse and it is
doubtful if she will recover.
Miss Walker lived with her mother,
there being no other members of the
family. At the time of the accideut Mrs.
Walker was at her work in Simon &
Froshiu’s store on Whitehall street.
Mrs. Walker was sent for immediate
ly and she was almost prostrated when
she saw her learned of the terrible ca
lamity.
The young l&dy is about seventeen
years of age.

Diamond Dyes excel a!f others in Strength, Purity, and Fastness. None other are
just as good. Beware of imitations, because they arc made of cheap and inferior materials
and give poor, weak, trocky colors. To be sure of success use only the Diamond Dyes
for coloring Dresses, Stockings, Yams, Carpets, Feathers, Ribbons, &c, &e. We warrant
them to color more goods, package for package, than any other dyes ever made, and to give
more brilliant and durable colon. Ask for the Diamond, and take no other.

The Improved method of fastening strlnge of

portant Improvements ever made, making the
instrument more richly musical in tone, more
durable, and less liable to get out of tunc.
otd the Mason & (Inmbn Organs and Pianos
excel chiefly in that which is the chief excel
lence in anv musical instrument, qualltsof tone.
Other things, tho gh important, are much less so
