broad bosom of the Ht. Mary's river.
Mr. Henry Jackson, tho president of
tho company, stnteH that ho has just
purchased a complete «ladder outfit for
the purpose of handling the huge cy
press logs of the swamp. This ma

foot in diameter, transporting every

recent outrage in Olay county, where a
strange negro was burned to death for
murdering Mr. Joe Burnett while he

Speaking of tho recent whiteonp
triula in Carroll county, tho Atlanta
Journal says:
Tho new s of the conviction of a num
ber of the whiteeap outlaw s in Carroll
county is an assurance that the good
people of that section of onr fair state
are determined that tho majesty of tho
law shall be uphold and n law -abiding
people overwhero applaud their deter
mined effort to rid tho state of this
lawless gang. No purer, abler or
braver man adorns Georgia's judiciary
than Judge Sampson Harris, who pre
sides over the superior court of Carroll
county, and the public can rest as
sured that he will see that the cause of
justice will not suffer. It is to be
hoped, too, that Judge Harris will
make an example of this gang, and
give them the full extent of the law.
Never in the history of this good old
county has a ease excited more interest
than the one just ended, und the result
shows that Carroll is not a healthy
place for the class of criminals known
ns whiteenps.

The commissioner of education is
busy with the work of receiving the re
turns from tho school census. The
enumerators have all been appointed
und the work is progressing most rap
idly. The work is also moving along
with most satisfactory results to the
department. The figures that the
enumerators are senping in to tho com
missioner show that ho was not very
muoh mistaken when he said that tho
census would show the state up to better
advantage in the matter of illiteracy.
While some of the counties nro not
showing up so well, others are making
up for it and the impression on the
mind of the commissioner is that the
eonsus will he a most satisfactory ono.
He will make out the apportionment
for tho school fund this year to the
counties, according to the result of the
now census and not according to the
last. There will bo some very broad
changes in some of the funds for the
counties. The county of Lincoln, for
instance, will fall short to somo extent.
It is shown by the enumerators that
tho school population of this county is
not quite so largo tliiH year ns it was by
the census five years ngo. This means
that the county will not get quito so
much money this yonr as it received
last from tho state for the school fund.
But while this is true of ono or two
counties, most of them show an increase.

The plans for allowing the body of
the late ex-Prcsidont Jefferson Davis
to lie in state in Atlanta on the 29th of
May have been arranged and will prob
ably be carried out with but little
ebango. The speciul train thnt is to
tako tho dead chieftain from New Or
leans to his Inst resting place in Rich
mond, will reach Atlanta tho day after
it leaves NewOrlenns, and it is thought
now thnt the train will lenvo that city
about tho 28th of next month. It will
stop long enough in Montgomery, Ala.,
for the body of tho oonfedarato leader
to be taken to tho stato cnpitol, where
it will lie in stato a few hours. It
will ho the same old building,
iu front of which Mr. Davis in
tho old days of tho 60’s received
tho commission ns president of the
confederate states of America. It will
be one of tho biggest duys in Mont
gomery thnt city lias seen for a long
time. From there the train will move
011 to Atlanta without many hours do-
lay. It will stop there according to
the programme thus fur announced,
four hours. It will rench tho city on
the afternoon of tho 29th about 4
o’clock, and tlin body will be taken to
tho stato cnpitol where it will lie iu
state four hours. Tho special train
will then leave at 8 o’clock for Rich
mond, malting no more stops until tho
final stop is made.

Major D. N. Speer, whoso death oc
curred a few days ngo in Atlanta, was
well-known throughout the state. At
one time he was state treasurer and his
administration of the office was highly
satisfactory. While treasurer ho saved
to the peoplo of Georgia $200,000 by
withdrawing tho state’s money from
the Citizen's bank of Atlanta before
that institution collapsed.
When the wsr broke out in 18(11
Major Speer enlisted in tho confeder
ate Horvloo ns captain. During the
years 18(11-2 lie served ns a major on
tho staff of that gallant officer, General
John Ti. Gordon. For the remainder
of the struggle he served ns lioutonant-
colonol on the staff of General S. 11.
Buckner of tho trans-Mississippi de
partment. He was a bravo and de
voted officer and as such was frequent
ly the recipient of mnrkod praiso from
superiors in command.
After the war Major Speer began tho
prnctico of law in lad)range under the
firm nnmo of Spoor A Spoor. Ho re
mained in the practice until 1880, and
was recognized ns ono of the most
prominent lawyers of tho section.
The citizens of Troup county, in
1880, presented the name of Major
Spoor ns a candidate for tho office of
state treasurer to succeed Hon J. W.
Ronfroo. When the election came off
in the fnll of tho year Major Speer,
although Mr. Ronfroo was an inde
pendent candidate, received a majority
of 93,000 votes over his opponent and
ho was declared elected. After vacat
ing tho ollleo of treasurer ho was elect
ed tho president of the Exposition
cotton mills, which hns occupied the
greater portion of his time. He has
also held numerous directorships in
tho banking establishments of Atlanta,
and also of Nownnn, Monroe, Carroll
ton and LnGrango. Ho accumulated
a largo amount of property after com
ing to Atlanta, and lias long been re
garded as one of the wealthiest men
in the city.

From the official weather bureau
bulletin for the mist week, issued
Wednesday by Director Morrill, wo
make tho following extracts:
In tho northwest section of the
state there was a satisfactory amount
of rain during the week, which soft
ened the ground and wns generally
beneficial, although retarding planting
operations somewhat. Light frosts
wore general in Ibis section on Sunday
morning, but, as the air and surface of
tho ground wore fairly dry, little dam
age was done. Upland corn is about
all planted and is coming up well;
cotton ]>lunUng is beginning. Wheat,
oats and grass crops continue to prom
ise well.
Continued Inck of moisturo in the
northeast is causing considerable grum
bling amongst the farmers, for tho
brisk dry winds have dried up tho
ground and made it so hard on uplunds
that it is there almost impossible to
plow or otherwise work the soil. Tho
consequence is that the planting of
cotton is hindered and will continue
to bo hindered to a groater or less ex
tent until there comes a good wetting
rain, for which everybody is praying
at present. About one-half of this
year's anticipated acreage of cotton
has been planted up to tho present
date.
Corn is up and cotton planting nenr-
v completed in the west section. In
some early cotton fields chopping has
begun and considerable plowing is be
ing done in corn. Little rain lias fal
len the past week and the ground has
been badly dried by tho high winds.
Red lauds have become so bard and
dry that cotton is coming up very
slowly. The stand of corn is good and
small grain shows an excellent appear
ance, though a slow, warm raiu is
needed.
Tho continued drought in tho cen
tral counties is keeping cotton from
coining up, and st many points cotton
planting has been discontinued until
rain can be had. Those who planted
early will lmvo good stands. Without
rain soon, the out crop will bo Serious
ly damaged. Tho warm sunshiny
weather of the past week has rapidly
dried the ridge lands and cotton plant
ed now will not corns up.
There has been practically no rain
in eastern Georgia the past week. At
many points none has fallen in more
than three weeks. Oats have suffered
chiefly ; they nro now heading out and,
without rain, the yield will be short.
Corn is growing rapidly and vegeta
bles have stood tho want of rain so far.
Tho latter plantings of cotton are not
plowing lias commenced.
Droughty weather is prevailing in
tho southwest section of the state,
Brisk winds during tho past week have
dried up the ground to a considerable
extent, especially on red lands whero
it is now quite hard and unfit for
Working. The temperature bos been
reasonnblo and but for the want of
rain to bring np late planted cotton
and to soften the soil, conditions
would be most favorable foi a contin
uation of the rapid and flourish
ing growth thus fur reported in nearly
all kinds of crops.
Although the past week has been u
fair one for the crops of the southern
section, many complaints nro received
of tho almost total absence of rainfall.
Tho soil from lack of sufficient mois
ture is somowhat baked and difficult
to plow. Cotton planting is still in
progress but generally tbo crop is all
in and much of it up. The melon,
vegetable and fruit crops nro in most
excellent condition but would, as is
tho cose with other crops, be much im
proved by a few good showers during
tlio next week. Potatoes, although nil
planted, are not yet np. Reports rela
tive to the oat crop indicate that it is
morn in neod of moisture than any
otlior.
Very little rain lias fallen in tho
southeast dainties, and the long
drought hns slightly injured the cot
ton crop. Farmers nro well lip with
their work. Tho gardens are about
planted and are looking fine. Truck
ers are picking and shipping cabbage
and pens, Planting is still being con
tinued rigorously at a few points,
while in some places tho dry weather
has prevented it.
TIIK 11UDY AM) ITS HEALTH.
Oa«k ok the Haul—When nature
has neglected to crown ahead with silken
tresses one can, in some measure, rem
edy tho slight by persistently brushing
the hair. A good quality of brush should
be. used. A hair brush should have long,
soft bristles thnt will go through tho
hair and touch tho scalp; then every
particlo of dust and dirt can bo re
moved. A comb is seldom necessary if
the hair is carefully brushed; if used at
ull tho comb should ho n very coarse one.
A fine comb irritates tho scalp to a
hurtful degree, and iB quite npt to break
and split the hair. Brush the hair for
live minutes before retiring at night,
braid it loosely and permit it to hang.
Nevor sleep with hairpins in tho Imir.
Tho lmlrpius to use aro made of bone,
ninber or tortoiso shell. Conrso, sharp
pins out mid tear the hair and should
never lie used. It is an old-time saying
and well worth n trial that ‘TOO strokes
of the hair brush every night will make
one’s hair like silk ”
Modern Iccluudto Literature.
Tho modern Icelandic literature lakes
refuge in poetry; und in this field tho
best work hie, appeared. Tho hymn,
the lovo song, tho Idyl, tho Hues that
lot us look into a man's own heart, the
verses that kindle with patriotism and
liberty—nil these have been found possi
ble. Somo of the modern work takes
very high rank, though lacking tho ex
quisite delicacy of the best Danish poetry
and the lire mid abandon of tho old
songs of the Eddu. Tho Icelandic epic
is yet to be written, but the old Ed tin
measures nro peculiarly fitted for tho
loftiness of a great poem, ns may bo seen
in tho masterly translation of Milton's
‘ Paradise Lost,” perhaps the finest ver
sion existing in nay language —[Now

IKaklsg Shoe* Waterproof.
Shoes can easily be made waterproof
and Bnow-resisting by the aid of o lit
tle paraffin disol/ved in benzine. A
very little paraffin io needed, and only
enough benzine to dissolve it and
mttke it flow easily. The preparation
can be brushed over the uppers and
over the soles, aud as it dries almost
aH fast as put on, the shoes ore ready
for wear without any delay. The par
affin presents a firm waterproof sur
face, and does not look amiss, although
it will not take a shine like unprepar
ed leather. But it will resist any
amount of wet and is very convenient
in snowy weather. Tho preparation
differs, in that instead of making the
leather stiff and hard, it ninkes it very
soft aud pliable. The mixture cun be
applied to patent leather tips and to
uppera composed entirely of thnt ma
terial, but it takes off the brilliancy of
these stylish articles to be used very
extensively for that purpose, although
when the paraffin lias worn off, the
polish appears os brilliant as ever.

“A SUCCESS.”
F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, O., Gentlemen:—
I have suffered from catarrh for about five years
And have tried several remedies without relief
until I commenced to use Hall’s Catarrh Cure last
February. I must say that it is a A SUCCESS,
the dropping in my throat disappeared entirely
after the first bottle. It increased my appetite, so
that I now weigh eight pounds more than my cus‘
tomary weight. I have recommended it to others
and all who used it have been greatly relieved and
speak highly of it. One of them was in my store
yesterday and expressed his wish to peddle it this
winter. Will you please let me know the lowest
terms you could furnish it for, as I would like to
keep it in stock. Hoping to hear from you
soon, I remain, Yours respectfully,
R. C. IIAUSWEDELL,
Lake City, Minn.

We offer
you a ready
made medicine for Coughs,
Bronchitis and other dis
eases of the Throat and
Lungs. Like other so called
Patent Medicines, it is well
advertised, and having merit
it has attained a wide sale
under the name of Piso’s
Cure for Consumption.
It is now a “Nostrum,”
though nt first it was com*
pounded after a prescription
by a regular physician, with
no idea that it would ever
go on the market as a proprie
tary medicine. But after
compounding that preecrlp-
tion over a thousand time# In
one year, vre named It ‘Thao's
Cure for Consumption,” and
b-gnn advertising St in a
small way. A medicine
known all over the world is
the result.
Why is It not just as good
as though costing fifty c«nts
to a dollar for a prescription
and an equal sum to have it
put up at a drug store?
