it all through the war and values it very
highly. It was taken from an escaped

There is much nice work put upon
spoons since tbe fad began, bat thnt
which excels, which is »A a thing dainty
to a thing coarse, is tbe Mexxan work.
An almond spoon recently sent as a bri

dainty a work.

SHOW YOUR LOVE,

Show your love. Take it in y<

and respect you. Curb its temper. Use
the rod if necessary, always explaining
you chastise for its good. Interest
yourself in all of its affairs, ^making
borne pleasant. Give but few orders,
have them obeyed. Fulfill all promts
es to it. Never allow it to play cards
or drink unnatural drinks. Keep home
clear of such. Teach it industrious

TUB ALPHA AND OMEGA.
Nkwnan, June 5th.
Editor Banner : 1 could give many
rules for rearing children so as to be
come useful men and women, but will
condense them all into one. Set Christ
before them as the one great example.
Let Him be the ^Ipha and Omega in
all your dealings with them, and, in
order to teach Christ you must live
Christ. Respectfully,
Hannah Jane.
SIX GOOD RULES
These are the best rules I know for
us boys and girls to be taught by.
1. Be kind and patient.
2 Have nice table manners.
3. Be polite, and especially to old
people.
4. Keep in good company, for it is
better to be alone than in bad company
5. Do not fight, swear, and curse.
6. Read the Bible, and go to Sunday-
school, and church, then you will grow
up to be nice men and women, in tbe
sight of God and man.
7. Honor our parents.
Lewis LaMfkin, 12 years old.

AVOID EVIL COMPANIONS
Keep your own character spotless
interesting one in every particular.
After a devout prayer by the class
haplain Mr. Marion Hull, the historian
Mr. G. D. Pallock was introduced to
the audience. His history of the class
was complete in detail, and gave an
account of the past events iq the lives
of the individual members oi the class.
The history was an accurate record and
so spiced with wit that it was most in
teresting as Well as instructive.
Next came the class orator, Mr. T. J.
Shackelford, of whose ability as a spea
ker the class are justly proud. His
oration was indeed inspiration to
those whom are addressed
as to their
and happiness,
that while success should be sought iu
whatever walk of life was undertaken,
the true ends and aims of life should not
be sacrificed to those of secondary im
portance. He brought in, very prettily
the fact tbet no alumnums should sac
rifice the good of his Alma Mater to any
political ambition or other minor aim.
His oration was a most effective one,
and will long be remembered by bis
classmates to whom it was addressed.

pictured th« future and destiny of

“But it won’t get there. I said in a

time the old parties played the rascal,
the farmers play the fool, and the fool

get the money, and money makes the

Former-Sad Accidental Kill

Paris, His., June 13.—A sensational
murder occurred on a farm a few miles
northwest of this city, resulting in the
death of Thomas Benson, 27 years old.
Elmer Farris, another farm hand, work
ing with Benson, did the stabbing.
- Farris had recently married Miss Dora
Jones, a daughter of his employer, and
Benson and Farris quarreled about
something Benson had said about Far
ris’s wife. ~
Benson became very angry, and seized
a dub and assaulted Farris, striking
him three times over the head and
knocking him down twice. Farris had
a knife in his hand, and defended him
self by stabbing Benson. Benson waa
struck only once with the knife, bnt was
stabbed in the heart, dying instantly.
Benson was a very large man, and
Farris a small man.

The Phi Kappa’s Win.
The ehampioi: debate was the event
of last night at the chapel.
The Demosthenian and Phi Kappa or
ators were pitted against each other
and the question of co-education of the
sexes was discussed.
The Phi-Kappa’s were represented
by Messrs. W. E. Christie, of Dawson,
Ga., and Eugene R. Black, of Atlanta,
and-champioued the affirmative in favor
co-education.
The Demostheni&ns bad Messrs. C.
R. Nifbet, H A Alexander andH.M.
Dorsey, of Atlanta, and uphold the neg
ative. Col. John R. Slater, of Val
dosta, the judge of the debate, in a few
able remarks delivered his decision in
favor of the Phi-Kappa’s.
This makes the twelfth victory for the
Phi-Kappa’s in the last thirteen years.
A FATAL FALL.
Mrs. John White Falls From a Window
Which Causes Her Death.
Early Monday morning, our city was
startled by tbe announcement that Mrs.
John White, the mother of Capt. James |
White and Capt. John R. White was
dead. It will be remembered that sev
eral months ago this aged lady wasj
stricken with paralysis, and it was]
feared then that the stroke would prove
fatal, but she partially recovered, but |
ha*, been in feeble health ever since.
Mrs. White was at tbe home of her I
son-in-law, Hon. W. J. Morton, and at
an early hour on Monday morning, fell!
from a window in her room, from the
effects of which death supervened.
For many years Mrs. White bad bien
a member of the Presbyterian church,
and while the summons was unex-|
1 saw a fellow the other day talking
about the whiskey business and he had
a card the size of an envelope. On it
he had in big letters: W-R O-N-G.
he held it up and said: ‘You see that.
You see wrong on it’ Theu he put a
live dollar bill over it and held it up.
‘Now,’ be said, ‘you can’t see it. It’s
there but you can’t see it.’ “That,’ con
tinued Sain, ‘is the way it is with a
heap of things—put money on it and it’s
all right. Senator George is talking
more good sense to the farmers than
any man I know. ^ ^
The Commencement Sermon.—There
will be services in the University
chapel both morning and evening.
The commencement sermon will be
preached this morning by Rev. Lansing
Burrows of Augusta one of the .most
eminent Baptist divines in the South.
The night services will also be conduc
ted by Dr. Burrows and those who at-
tene will listen to a most excellent dis

Nashville, Ga., June IK—Mr. C. W.
Macnne, editor of The National Econo
mist, has left hero for Henderson, Ky.,
where he is to speak.
He was asked how long the Alliance
would seek relief at Che hands of the old
parties and replied:
"That question is one that is to be
settled at a meeting to be held in Feb
ruary. The Ocala convention author
ized tbe calling of a meeting of repre
sentatives of all organization- of pro
ducers willing to co-operate to secure
the necessary reforms, with full power
to decide what concession is necessary
for each to make to reach an agreement
upon a set of demands, and the methods
necessary to enforce them. ” He said
the farmers were terribly in earnest.
They loved their party, however, and
nothing was to be feared from if their
demands were met with proper con
cessions.

The Tr> usury Count.
Washington, June 18.—The count of
toe cash in the vaults of the treasury,
consequent on tKB recent change in the
office of treasurer, has so far resulted in
to9 discovery of a discrepancy of $1.
This is missing from a hag of silver in a
vault containing nearly 170,000,000.
The hag broke open by its own weight
and decay of the Canvas, and its con
tents were scattered among other hags
in the vault. It contained $1,000 in
ver dollars, all but one of which
found, and that one will probably
up before the examination of the i
is concluded. Otherwise, ex-Treasurur
