There was a considerable lot of drunkenness in Jackson last Satur day. Loeb. traveling salesmen for the Lomax Dißtilling Cos. spent last Sat urday In Jackson. It is said that Christ was betrayed and sold into tbe hands of his enemy s for thirty pieces of silver. The town council has bought the water privelcges of Yellow Water creek paying therefor seven hundred and fifty dollars. lb pays abundantly to keep, always, your promise, even if you makemon ey by breaking it. Every man that says, Lord. Lord, will net Ly any means, enter the Kingdom of the redeemed. About as many go to h—l out of the Amen corner as from the rear benches. You can sell a fellow a mule and promise to cellect half the note in the fall, and after he pays half, fore close your mortgage and then call him brother and Bay you are praying for him, but precious little does ho care for your prayers. You can’t spit in every fellows fiice und then con vince him that it is raiaiug. Don’t say this old world Is a fraud. You are simply lying. inward, bud, look inward. The sorriest cues on earth is the fellow that will let his wife walk feet blistered trying to quiet, a collicy baby, and about one o’jiock in the morning raise the devil with that worn out wife because she wont l>t the baby nurse. You dirty dog! The boy that hangs out of school and spends the day in the woods, and goes home to lie to bis mother about it, will eventual.y hang at the smuli end of a pick handle on the public roads. Don’t cuss luck. Cuss yourtnfi ing, good-for-nothing self. Get up and go to work and you wilt not have such hard luck. Prowl the streets less at night and sleep iu the fore purt of the night. It would scare some people to death if they should see a sun rise. The Griffin News and Sun has dis covered anew feature of Griffin social craze wherin sou.e of her people re quest the News and Sun nut to men tion ascandrei while they give out in terviews to the Atlanta dailies. Af ter ali scande) on u smuli scaie is a disgrace white one of national uoui riety is quite an honor. But it looks like it ali might be mixed iu the same box to us. Thb house of Representatives by a vote of 18U to 85 refused to approve of the recommendation of the com mittee to strike out the appropna too for free distribution of garden seed. When a man insists on constantly announcing his faith in anything, it is a sign that he himself is beginning to doubt it. Since the campaign of last year the Atlanta papers have undergone a re markable moral change. Then they published about the guberenatoria 1 candidate* all sorts of moral rot, but now they decline to publish in detail the testimony in the Trial on the gr turd that it is too dirty for their columns. We trust the Atlanta pa pers will always here-after wear clean linen. — Ex. HOG PENS. The ordinance passed by the town council forbidding the keeping of hogs in town is not observed by many of the citizens of JacksoD. The ordianceis somewhat too man datory and broad. We think a strict ordinance as to the manner of keeping the pen would be far better. No doubt the marshals would pa trol the town and keep an eye open for violations of an ordinance against filthy hog pens if they were required to do so. They really need a diversion of this sort to break the monotony of hanging around the Court house square. One hog in a half acre patch or even an eighth of an acre, would rot create any filth and it is foolish to say one shall not keep a hog in town at all, to say nothing of keeping a hog in a pen, or enclosure of this char acter. To say the least of it, the council should modify the ordinance, or cause all to observe it. AUGUSTA PAPER BURNED. The Chronicle newspaper building at Augusta, was gutted by fire at an early hour last Wednesday morning, also distroying the plant of the West ern Union Telegraph Company, total loss about $150,000.

You are cordially invited. Delinquents. In the beginning God created the heavens and earth, then the editor and the liberal advertiser —which was good. The next day it snowed and He created the man who does not believe In advertising, another who does not take the home paper—then he rested. Then the devil got into the moulding room and created the mail who takes the paper for several years and fails to pay for it. After he had accomplished that sorry job and had a few more lumps left, he created the excuse of a man who settles his subscription by informing the postmaster to mark his paper “refused.”—Ex.

Shortly after Congressman Maddox of Georgia, had turned over part of his law practice to hisson. the young man came into the office with a flushed trimnphant face. “Pa” he began “you know that wilkins case you've been trying for the last ten years?” The Congressman nodded. “Well” said the young man “I've settled it” “Settled it I” ejaculated his fath er why, my boy, I gave you that case as an amnity.” Woman’s home Companion for April, gggggggggggggggggggg Most people know that if they have been sick they need Scott's Emttl m s/on to bring back health and strength.
