it does in the educational progress
of the state. Georgia is moving

in her appreciation of the vsloenf

Much has been done to promote this
great interest during last year and

THRtE GOOD BOOKS.
There are three books that are
soon to be issued from the press
that will be of exceeding interest to
all Georgians. Ihe books are writ*
ten by Georgia authors'bat they
will arouse thejwhole world of South
ern literature, aDd will throw a new
I'ght on American history.
One of t hese books will be Long*
street’s History of the Confederacy,
written by “Lee’s old war horse,’
himself. The book will contain
very much that no history of the
Confederacy has ever yet contained,
and the readers of this history will
be permitted to see pen pictures of
ceitaiu battles painted with that
ivid likeness which only an eye
witness in Longstreet’a boots coaid
possibly kindle on the page.
Longstreet’a history of the Con
federacy will find a ready sale the
world over and the old warrior’s
gray hairs will be crowned with still
r ater love and admiration from
surviving Southern soldiers.
An other of the books is the Life
and Times of General Robert
Toombs, which Editor Pleasant A.
Stovall of the Augusta Chronicle
« compiling Here is a book which
wih aw* ken the memories of the I do you suppose she would do in Heav
Shake Hands.
And why no' 1 Why not with out
stretched hand and smiling face greet
one’s acquaintance or friend! No, you
must not do it. You must stand rigid,
with your hands behind you, so u>
*PeHk, and make a disagreeable little
stiff bow: because, forsooth, fashinon
says so. If I were a man I wool ' sa*
“Hang Fashion!” but being a woman
of course it wouldn’t look well in me to
be so emphatic. The desire is the same
however.
I onee saw such a pitiful illustration
of this non-hand-shaking; such a dem
onstration of the diference of common
politeness to the decree of fes’iion
On a hotel piazza an introduction
took place between a middle aged but
terfly of fashion and a right young boy,
probably seventeen or eighteen years ot
oge_. As the formula was pronounced
giving them the new-born right to
thereafter hold communication on the
proper tooting, the youth ad van
ced a step and cordially
'•ffered his hand. What do .you sup
pose happened? Why that Tittle 8' ip
of a woman took a backward step and
coolly nodded her b.-frizzled head—that
was all. And all the crowd did stand
aghast, for be it known we were coun
ts y folk aud knew not that to shake
hands overstepped the boundrrr line..
A"d that young blonde gient with his
outstretched hand, looked, and no
doubt f. It, that if he could ouly cut off
that honest, rjght hand, and make a
present of it to somebody, he would be
so gVa; for to offV-r vour hand ard have
it rejected, makes chat member such a
superfluity that one is glad to be rid of
it at any price.
That- was one illustration of the de
cline of brains in proportion to the ad
vance of fashion. The more fashion
the less common sense; but it was
wcsB than that. It was the wounding
of a fine sensibility; a total disregard
of courtesy, and for what!
I .new a young girl of Atlanta who
said she would rather die than be out of
fashion. She was earnest too; si© liv
ed up to just thatse itimeut. Think of
it. Would rather give up all the glorious
posibilities of life—the grand, noble
womanhood' that was hers if she
chose to take it, and appear before her
Maker in a lit of temper, than live
on this green earth iu last
snmmer’s gown and bonnet. What
pie ui< tho 1 yet found. The silver shep
herd’s crock was pretty, but apt to be
caught in various ways and detached
from the dr^ss It is further requested
that members wear the cross iu sight,
there having been serious misunder
standings where the badge was wora at
the belt or on the wrist as a fangle. On
the heart, encouraging the wearer
deeper effort, is the pi oper plac*; bat it
is also visible at the tiiroa, and it is
lioth meet and right to. wear it there,
that the voice n 7 be tuned to bright
raid cheerful sound-, The d ily good,
he goeC in little, things, which is the
mainspring of the order, has been the
stepping stoue to the height now at
tained. It has not been hampered by
rules and requirements to its death;
but the cup ol coin water In His Name
1 as been the magic wtaieh has made
this noble order a success.

THE 6TATF3IEOT UNTRUE.
Secretary Gardner of the National
Association or Democratic Clubs, whoce
word always “goes” here, where ev-
eryiroay knows htin, says there was not
a particle of truth in the statement pub
lished that the executive committee of
which he is a member, had met: 1 New
York last week for, the purpose of
booming Son.. or Gorman for the presi
dential nomination. He savB: “I
have no recollection of that gentlt man’s
name being called, and 1 kuow that
there was nothing said or done that
could be const, ued as intended to create
a sentiment i. ft.vor of Gorman or any
other men for ihe Presidency. It is the
object of the association >f club<» to
work for the men nominated by the
party, not to take any part in their
nomifcation. It c; operates with the
regu’ r organisation of the democratic
pr^ty in support of democratic men
aud dcmcctatic msaures. It
does Lot pr*. cribe p'at.orms, but
ratifies them; it does uo*. nominate
candidates, but cupport" 1 t’erm. Its na-
tioual conyfr- ;o . are, iu virtue of its
constitutiou, nek. after, not before nomi
nating convent',., ns, and the att* mpt > 0
make it appc’-r cnat this little busi
ness meeting w;v* in the nature of a
boom is unjust aud without good rea

The Position Held by the Directors os
the Union Theologlco! Semlnnry-—Res
olutions Passed at the Last Meeting.
Dr. Briggx to Hold His Chair by a
Large Majority.
New York, June 6.—The directors of
the Union Theological seminary have
met and have declared their position on
the question of the right of the general
assembly of the Presbyterian church to
veto the transfer of Professor Charles
A. Briggs from the chair of Hebrew to
the chair of Biblical theology. The res
olution passed at their meeting held is
as follows:
- - to-
ili
Resolved, That the board of directors,
after having taken legal advice and aftc
due consideration, see uo reason to chang
tLeir views on the subject of transfer o.
Dr. Briggs, and feel bound in the discharg*
01 their duties under the charter and
constitution of the seminary to adhere to
the same.
The intent of the vote passed by the
general assembly at its recent sesions in
Detroit was that Dr. Briggs should
cet- se to be professor in the Union sem-
inti -y. The effect of the resolution
given above is that it is the judgment of
the directors that the veto was a usurpa
tion of powers never given, or intended
to be given, to the general assembly,
and that since the vote was illegal, the
appointment stands, and Dr. Briggs
will continue as professor during the
corning year, as during the past seven
teen years.
The meeting of the hoard of directors
was very full, only three members being
absent. ut of the full board of twenty-
six. The vote by which the resolution
was adopted was practically unanimous,
ouly oue vote being cast in opposition.
THE BARBECUE WENT ON
As Motile Darling Was Subdued and
Taken to tbe City.
Roue, Ga., Jane 6.—There was a
scandalous scene at a barbecue near this
city, at Dougherty’s grove. Everything
went along merrily until a woman named
Mollie Darling drove on the grounds in
a phaeton. She was intoxicated, and
created quite a sensation byTier vigor
ous dancing. After leaving the plat
form, she went to another part of tjjre
grounds and became very noisy, cursing
so load that she could be heard 100 yards.
She carried a valise containing a big
flask of whisky and a revolver. She ap
plied herself heartily to the flask until
she nearly emptied it. Tiring of this
she took her pistol and waved it over
her head several times, dancing and
screaming like a wild Comanche.
One of the spectators then took violent
hold of her, and in the scuffle the woman
was thrown to the ground, tearing her
clothes. She was not hurt, however,
although the treatment seemed to bring
her to her senses somewhat. She was
then lifted into the phaeton, hat when
the driverattempied to leave the grounds
she grabbed the reins and threatened to
blow his brains out.
She was finally subdued and taken
to the city, after which the barbecue
was enjoyed by all present.
Came Near Being Killed.
Baxley, Ga., June 6.—The 10-year-
old son of Mrs. Hunter, a widow lady
living out near tbe river, came near
being killed with a knife in his own
hands. He was standing near the door
with the knife open in his hand. His
younger brother, who was standing close
to him, ran against him, mid making an
effort to dodge him, turned quickly, the
handle of the knife striking the koor
facing, and the blade entered his abdo
men. Dr. Weaver was called, and dress
ed the wound, who stated that the child
was not seriously hart
An Honest Confession.
Winnipeg, Man., June 6.—Mr. Davitt,
on reading the cablegram announcing
the suspension of his paper, The Labor
World, 6aid: p I did not expect this, but
still I am greatly surprised. I placed
the paper in charge in charge of one of
the ablest journalists in London before
I left. I am to blame for the result, as
I went, perhaps, too heavily into poli
tics during the Parnell trouble. The
labor people did not wish their cause to
he mixed up with either side of politics,
but I was compelled to attack Parnell. ”
Pompous Funerals to Boll lighters.
Madrid, June‘6.—Three boll fighters,
two matadores and one banderillo were
