TUT GOULDS.
Jay Gould, who dying, left $75,-
000,000, married Hellen Day Mil
ler. He died in 1892. There were
four sons and two daughters,
George .1., Edwin, Helen, Howard,
Anna, F. .1.
The latter married Helen Marga
ret Kelly and they were divorced
in 1900. Anna married Boni de
Castellano, was divorced and mar
ried Prince de Sagan in 1008. How
ard Gould and his wife, Kathrine
Clemmons, are now before the pub
lic in the divorce court.
Helen Gould is a good woman,
devoting her talents and fortune to
the advancement of mankind and
amelioration of the unfortunate in
her own quiet way. She has given
much money, time and endeavor to
welfare work. Edwin Gould is hap
pily married to Sarah Shrady,
daughter of a famous physician,
and two sons have been l>orn to
them. George Jay Gould is a busi
ness man and solid citizen of New
York. His wife is Edith Kingdon
and three sons and four daughters
have been born to them.
The disgrace brought upon the
family by the three younger chil
dren is said to weigh heavily upon
the three older- The careless esti
mate put upon the marriage rela
tion and the inference that limitless
money has the right to reach out
for anything, and higher, or
lower, us the ease may bo, than the
moraljand social code lias prescribed,
has wrought havoc among these
wealthy people and brought shame
upon the family which once held
their heads high and proudly
among the American millionaire
group.— Augusta Chronicle.

NOTE OE WARNING FROM DR. HIRSE
From Walton Tribune.
The following card from Dr. G.
I\ Hurst, one of the county’s lead
ing physicians, deserves the thought
ful consideration of our people:
To the People of Walton:
We have had an epidemic of
scarlatina*or scarlet fever since
1800 and since that time- have not
had less than one thousand cases in
this county, to say nothing of tne
number of cases that have been
taken away by visiting people.
Now, we can stop this dreaded
disease if the layman will work
with the physician, and to do this
he should report each and every
case to his family physician, who
in turn should report promptly to
either the mayor of the “city or
ordinary of the county. Each case
should he isolated and kept so for
at least four weeks, after which the
room the patient occupied and its
contents should he thoroughly disin
fected.
There are great a many who think
that scarlatina is only a slight form
of sealet fever and that scarlatina is
not a dangerous disease — that they
would not mind their children hav
ing scarlatina, as in their opinion
it would result in an immunity form
scarlet fever. In this connection I
desire to say that it does not matter
how slight the symptoms of scar
latina may be, it is scarlet fever;
no matter how severe the symytoms
of scarlet fever may be, it is scarla
tina; in other words scarlatina and
scarlet fever are one and the same
thing, all reports to the contrary
notwithstanding.
This notice is given in the hope
that it may dissipate the erroneous
impression that there is a difference
between scarlet fever and scarlatina,
for there is none and from the
slightest form your children may
contract the severest form.
There are few diseases from which
we get such grave complications
as from scarlatina or scarlet fever,
and 1 urge upon every individ
ual the necessity of stamping out
the disease by promptly reporting
all disease. For from, the endemics
we are continually having epidemics,
and if the people could only have
been shown the number of deaths
from this “harmless?” disease
since the year 1000 they would
surely take prompt steps to have it
stamped out. Respectfully,
G. P. Hurst.
Pays To Read Bible.
“it pays to read the Bible,” said
Steve Marsh yesterday, as he gazed
at a pile of green paper represent
ing $1,087 in his home in Fairfield,
N. J., near Caldwell. “1 wish 1
had started reading that Bible thirty
five years ago.” The money had
been found in a Bible owned by a
aunt of Marsh. She died thirty-five
years ago.
Almost s3,oooin bills were found,
ranging in denominations from 10
cents to $lO. The smaller ones
were “shin plasters,” which were
withdrawn from early circulation
in the early seventies. The total
value of the Bible’s treasure may he
ever larger, as it is possible some of
the issues of the 10, 25 or 50 cents
currency may command premiums
from collectors.
Marsh made the discovery while
packing a trunk preparatory to join
ing his son, Steve Marsh, .lr., near
Denver, lie was undecided whether
or not to take the old Bible with
him. While debating this question
he opened the brass clasp of the
book for the first time since it has
been in bis possession and found
the money.

IP IN LUMPKIN.
From Dahlonega Nugget.
There was a trial up at Yahoo]a
church last Saturday and its mem
bership in one less now than it was
before.
Last week Mr. Mat Wood saw a
big snake swim out on the bank of
the Chestatee rever with a fish seven
or eight inches long.
We saw a preacher come to town
last week barefooted, with his pants
rolled up like we used to do when
we went, to wade the branch making
water wheels
While in a little twistification last
Sunday night, AH>ert Henson got
his head skinned with a pistol. Do
not know particulars.
There is an old woman in Dah
lonega 7o years old who wants to
many and went to Pickens county
this week to see if she could find a
husband.
Our friend Jarrard, of Chestatee
district, got the day of the week
mixed up and did quite a lot of
work ('u Sunday a week ago before
he found out that it was the Lord’s
day.
A man in town proposes, if his
wife will quit him and take their
child, to hind himself to give her
three dollars per month. Now
don’t say that we haven’t got liberal
people in Pahlonega any longer.
Last week Paul Brooksher, of
this place, went to bod on Sunday
night and slept until Tuesday, wak
ing up only two or three times.
Paul had been losing a good deal of
sleep and he decided to get even one
more time.
It was thought the other day that
Mrs. Nation was in Dahlonega, hut
it turned out to he Mrs. Adams
preaching Mary Smith’s funeral be
cause she believed that her married
son was paying this woman his re
spects.
There was to have been a wed
ding here about the middle of the
week, causing the would he bride to
l>o dressed up for several days and
nights, but the one who had made
love to her failed to put in his ap
pearance.
