these destroyers of peace and society.
The Rome Courier says that Maj. Ba
con will throw up his SIO,OOO railroad

which pays only $3,000. We repeat, the
people of Georgia are not prepared to re

it be that there is some stupendous pro

sively that Maj. Bacon is not so much of
a “business man” after all. Such busi

he is a success in handling finances.

Brudder “Jorg” Gleason’s popular
lecture l ist evening was devoted to the
subject of sowing and reaping, on which
he said:
Wid a hart full of graditude I rise dis
mawnin ter speak to yo’ on de subject
wat orter be de nearest ter de harts ob
all human bcins, my tex dis mawnin is
de woids, “Be not deceibed God is not
mock’d fur what a man sows dats wat
he’ll allso reap.”
Now my frens wen yo’ plow de groun
an harrar it an so de seed you expect ter
git a crap or you wouldent take de trub
bel ter do all de work. Now wen yo’
sow de seed you sows jist wit kine ob
grain wat you expocst to reap; an yo
doan sow dirty seed, but yo sow the best
yo can git. You doan sow turnip seed
and expect ter git cabbage, nor yo doan
sow any kine ob seed widout expectin
i ter git mo’ ob de same kine in return.
If you sow de win’ you i3 gwinter reap
de whirl win, fur whatsoever a man sow-
eth dat shall he also reap. So we mus
be keerful what kine ob seed we sow. It
doan make any difference how nice we
fix de grown an how well we harrer in
de seed, onless we sow de rite kine ob
seed. Sometimes when I’d bin goin
along a fiel, Ise seen a leetle bit ob a
weed grown up mong de corn. It didn’t
look as if it wood do much harm, but it
growd an growd, an after a white it got
ter boa grate big weed, an it had about a
bushel ob burs on it, an dem burs got
ripe an fell off, and dey sprouted an
growd till de fiel woodent rais nuffin but
burrs. So you wanter be keerful not ter
only sow good seed, but be keerful to
keep dc weeds from growin, for as de
poet says:
Dis wort dat we’s a libin in
Is like a cotton row,
Whar ebry called gentleman
Ilez got his lins ter hoe.
And wheneber a lazy nigger
Stops ter take a nap,
Do weeds keep on a growin
For ter smudder up hia crap.
So yo see dat keer an’ work goes toged
der an’ yo has ter use good sense if yer
want ter git any returns for yo labor, an’
in de ease ob ’ligoti yo mus keep on a
workin, a plowin and a weedin and put
yore hole mine inter de buzness if yo
make a success ob it. If yo preech som
pin what ain’t gospel ter rnose de mem
bers an de outsiders mos all de year, why
yo’l berry likely hab ter send off some
whar ter git a man that preaches de gos
pel ob de Lawd Jesus wen yo wanter git
up a revival. Now if yo sow gospel seed
all de time why you’ll hab a revival all
de time, an wen a pore sinner gits hun
gry fur de pure gospel he’l come to your
time keepin’ the groun clean, if yo don’t
do it you won’t make a crop no how,
you mus
Keep a plowin’ an’ a horn’
An’ a acratchin’ ob de rows,
An’ wen de ginnm’ ober
Yo’ km pay up wat you owca
But if yon quits a workin’
Ebery time de sun is hot,
Why de shirf bounler lebby
Upon everything you’a got.
It won’t do ter stop an git in de shade
when de day is wawm, or wen de day is
cole, bekase you’l lose groun all de time.
If yo’s puliin on a rope an yo let de rope
slip back ebery time as much as you pull,
you won’t do any good, an yo’l git tired
yoself and quit puliin, an yo will hab ter
send off and git a man ter cum wat her
got sense enufi’ter pull wid all his mite
and den hole on all he gits. If yo git a
sl&f?nt££ pull an yo hole de rope, doan yo
kase de man hiH^d^.TV,v P u^n ) e "
wen yo want him to gib yo aif6lS&f
Wat clecebed God is not mocked, fur wat
a man sows dats wat lie is gwinter reap
all de time. Now, my frens, if yo’l
preach Christ all de time, den yo’l sow
de rite kine ob seed. If sumbody wants
yo ter sow sumfin else fur a wile, doan
yo do it, bekase if yo reap a liar yes for
de Lawd, why yo’l hab to sow de rite
seed fur dat kine ob a crap. An now,
Brer Smiff and Brer Simpkins, 1 fine dat
yo is workin hard in de mission, and I
wanter say dat if yo’l foller de instruc

SHOT HIS FATHER.
A Son Kills His Father In Self Defense
and While Protecting His Mother.
Bki.air, Mi)., June 18—Last night
about 11 o’clock Caleb Spicer, a farmer,
living near Kellville, Hartford county,
was shot and killed by his son, George
Spicer. The ball severed the jugular
vein, causing death in a few minutes.
The deceased was about 53 years of age.
He held a position in the Baltimore cus
tom house during Collector Thomas’s
first term, and was subsequently a depu
ty collector of internal revenue. For
several years past he has been more or
less addicted to drink, and his domestic
relations were made unhappy in conse
quence.
At the inquest Mrs. Spicer testified
that her husband came home under the
influence of liquor, and when they were
about to retire he became abusive and
caught hold of her. She called her son.
When he came in her husband let her go
and caught George by the arm. A scullle
took place and the pistol was fired.
George Spicer testified that he heard his
mother calling for help, and upon going
into her bedroom his father caught hold
of him and tried to throw him out of the
window. To defend himself and his
motner he drew his pistol and fired.
The coroner’s jury summoned by jus
tice Price rendered a verdict that Caleb
Spicer came to his death by a pistol shot
fired by his son, George Spicer.
The son is about 21 years of age. He
is now in Bellair jail.

BAM JONES AGAIN.
He Fluffs n Rig Lie in an luffistnapolis Pa
per and Jumps it.
Indianapolis, Ind., June 19.—The
Journal perhaps understands now that
Sam Jones keeps loaded clear up to the
muzzle. It has been barking around
Mr. Jones’ heels for several weeks past.
It succeeded in attracting his attention
yesterday, and here is what lie said to
it;
“I saw the biggest and meanest lie in j
the Indianapolis Journal this morning
that was ever published on a man or a
devil. It was copied from the New York
Star , and it said that Sain Jones asked
SI,OOO a week for his services, and de
manded $3,000 from the people of Omaha
before he would come there. I never
had but one place to try to price me or ask
for my terms, and that was Baltimore.
They wrote me, “Give us your fig
ures,” and I answered that if my going
there necessitated me making a charge 1
would never step inside their city, and I
said that if you Christians of Baltimore
will pitch in and help me save souls for
Christ, 1 won’t charge you anything, but
if you don’t I’ll dig you purty heavy; 1
never made a contract about goin’ to a
place under the sun, and never said a
word about money in my life. That
paper that said 1 did laid itself liable to
libel suit, for it damaged my character
as a minister. It is a scandalous libel on
a man who never made a charge in his
life for liis work. I say this much be
cause it not only hurts me, but those
whom I might benefit. I wouldn’t go to
hear a preacher who charged SI,OOO a
week, or who demanded a guarantee
[Applause ] Brother McConnell will
bear me out in the statement that in all
our correspondence about coining here 1
never said one word about money. [Mc-
Connell —That’s true J I talk right out
about these things and 1 want to say
that if 1 had as much money as some of
you old Methodist have, and didn’t give
more to the church than you do, the
devil will git me just as sure as my name
is Sam Jones, and he’ll git you, too —
don’t forget that. There was never a
more sacred debt than that a man owes
to the church and to Christ. It is not
giving, it is paying just a little for the
many blessings you receive.”
RUNNING FROM THE PRESIDENT.
How Mr. Cleveland Got Riff Of a Chicago
Money-lender.
Washington Special to the Boston Herald ]
Representative Frank Lawler, of Chi
cago, takes more queer constituents to
see the President than any other member
of Congress. The President has come to
appreciate this fact. Last Saturday Mr.
Lawler took up to the White House ex-
Alderman Patrick Sanders, of Chioago,
who has made a fortune shaving notes at
cent per cent. Sanders, who is very
conceited, said to Lawler just as they
were going into the White House: “Tell
him that I’m a millionaire.” So, when
Lawler presented him, he said: “Mr.
President, let me present ex-Alderman
Patrick Sanders, of Chicago, one of our
millionaires.” It did not take many
minutes’ conversation to show the Presi
dent just what sort of a man the ex-Al
derman was.
“Mr. Sanders,” said the President
somewhat suddenly, while his eyes twin
kled, “ do you ever loan money ?”
“Oh, yes, Mr. President,” responded
Sanders, adding cautiously, “on good
security,”
“Well,” said the President in a jocular
way, “1 have just begun housekeeping,
and it is possible that I may want to bor
-“'I v apnie money, l haven’t much prop
city for security. Ttieto’, mv country
piano, which is worth $25,00df?- V , j iave
some property m WU*.„i n that
worth $15,000 more—say $40,000 in all'.
Now if I should want to borrow SIOO,OOO,
do you think you could loan it?”
Sanders took it quite seriously, and
began to perspire with conflicting emo
tions. “Well, sir,” he said after some
hesitation, “I’d like to accommodate you,
but SOO,OOO is a big discrepancy,”
“Then,” says Lawler, who tells the
story, “he suddenly caught my arm and
says, ‘Frank, let’s go,’ and he didn’t
breathe free again until he was out of
doors.”
THE CENTRAL ROAD.
Reme Courier.]
The report of a scheme by English
capitalists, or the Standard Oil monopoly,
to buy a controlling interest in the Cen
tral railroad of Georgia, is still both af
firmed and denied. Major A. I. Ilar
tridge, a broker of Savannah, said to a
News reporter:
“A controlling interest is 37,500 shares.
Mrs. Green, of New York, owns the big
gest single block of stock, something
over 0,000 shares. The present board of
directors own and control more than half
of the stock, and if there was any move
ment on foot to oust them they would
see that at least one-half the stock is tied
up so that the speculators could not ac
complish their purpose.”
But the News of Saturday notes the
presence in Savannah of Mr. 11. M. Flag
ler, secretary of the Standard Oil Compa
ty, on Wednesday, and a report that the
•resident of ihe company wa3 with him,
fci their private car. They went on to
St. Augustine.

Bloomington, Jane 21.—The family 1

David Davis have concluded that his end j
is approaching, and he has very little
chance of recovery. They determined
to give this information to the public,
believing it to be no longer proper to

Davis was attacked by a carbuncle on the
shoulder, about May first, he was already
reduced by diabetes. No sooner did the
carbuncle improve, two weeks ago, than
malignant erysipelas set in, so that he is
now suffering from a complication of
disorders. lie is very weak, and cannot

from Chicago will be held today. The

Davis beyond hope of recovery.
