Tilings of Interest. Florida has reduced her tax rate from 3} to 2£ mills on the dollar. Profanity is the fool’s impulse and the coward’s fortification. —Cleveland Plaiudealer. . ♦ Florida oranges a specialty at J. W- Prince,s, Pearson. A fishing schooner collided with a fruit steamer near Boston on the night of the 13th, and nine of the schoon er’s crew were drowned. Apples and Baaanas are constantly coming to J. W. Prince, at Pearson. The best and cheapest college in Georgia is the Valdosta Business Col lege. Address J. E. Porter, Valdosta, Ga. 6-28-tf Three drinks of whisky for ten cents in Chicago. This reduction was in view of securing the democratic con vention : She got it. When you are in Pearson stop at J. W. Prince’s and buy a pound of fiae candy. Your sweetheart will be pleased and your wife and chi'dren will smile on you for a week, A personal note for $lO, on which the interest was $330, came into court in Arizona recently. The rate of in terest was $1.25 a week. The note was outlawed. The supreme court has confirmed the the lower court in the Nobles case which means that old Mrs. Nobles and the negro thimbles must hang un less tlie)goveraor interfere. Capt. Bradwell says that the ex pense to teachers attending the Nor mal school at Athens is only $7.00 a month. Every teacher ought to at tend it in his or her vacation. An Albany Sunday sphool boy was asked by his teacher what would be the consequence if he broke one of the ten commandments. He replied: “then there would only be nine.” whe Valdosta Times very truly says: “It is not advertising once a year or once a month that does great benefits, hut the constant, steady, never ceas ing pall through the columns of a newspaper, that does the best work." Gen. Coxey delivered a lecture a few night* ago to the people of Atlan ta, entitled, “Keep Off the Grass.” Atlanta does not like him any morpt and likely will request him not to climb her apple t. ees, as well as keep efl’ the grass. There is only one way to manage the Sultan of Turkey and that is to break his miserable nijck.—Waycrcss Herald. We are not in favor of lynch law, but if the United States will lend us a boat, we will be one of very many to go over and perform the operation —lf you" can’t do any one any good don’t dp him any harm. You ought to try/(o live more brother-like to your felkhv-man during 1896 than you have ptfer lived in your life, always speak something encouraging to him/or about him if possible.—MouUfflfT Ob server. s' The new house cjisfplain has a life time job. He dgtfnm’t believe in ahell. He is th? yjxfa. n congressmen have been lojjfemg for all these years. — Herald. His job may ex nd beyond this life : he will be need ed to toat ice water to congressmen, while they dip the dross off the melted silver problem. Judge Turner will uudoubtly be re nominated f®r Congress in the elev enth district, and that means re-elec tion. Mr. Turner’s work in the house of representatives certainly deserves this rec ignition from his party.—Fitz gerald Enterprise. Hurrah for the Enterprise! It recognizes a man re gardless of his polit cs. Col. C. C. Thomas contemplates running for the legislature from Ware. Charles being the tirst person birn in Waycross, inherits the place, and we should be glad to see him receive his own. There is not a brighter spirit or a more generous heart in Ware, and her people should oppreciate the young aspirant for representative. An old negro who had some trouble with a saloon keeper at Weswego wharf near New Orleans, was sitting in his boat with his wife, when a mob of white men with torches set the boat on fire, and when the couple left the boat and took to their heels, they were rid Red with bullets. The son of the negro recognized some of the mob, but it is not supposed that they will be punished, as the “authorities” stu diously avoided ‘he discovery and im plication of anybody concerned. APPEAL FOR CONFDER ATE RELICS. In behalf of the memorial museum now established for the preservation of Southern memorials and relics in the mansion occupied by Hon. Jell' Davis while president of the Confed eracy this appeal is made, to which every citizen of Georgia is earnestly asked to give sympathy and support. This historic building wis given by the city of Richmond to the Confed erate Memorial Literary Society, an association whose object was to teach future generations the true history of the w ar. Every State is to have a distinct resresentation on the Board of Managers by a lady regent from that State, and also a seperatc room in which to deposit • its sacred relics of the glorious past. It should be the pride and glory ol the South to furnish the Memorial Museum in the former e. pital of the Confederacy, for no city in the land is so associated with the unparalelled heroism of the Souther i people as Richmond, wlpj.se hills overlook these battle fields immortalized by tUt chiv alry of soldiers from every state. And surely within the walls of the mansion wjiepe so often gathered the valiant men and true, those lasting ipeniorials of the noble sons and daughters of all the South should be sacredly guarded that the past may ever be held in honored remembrance. In furtheranre of this design the Association asks for contributions of original documents, pictures and ar ticles of juiy kind that tend to show the habits and manner of living of the people, or of the soldiers of the South ern States, from 1801 to 1805. Ihe Society suggest that these contribu tions be given as a memorial of some soldier, sailor or patriot; or of sonny battle, siege or march, the mernqry of which the donor desires to preserve. To each article should be attached a record uf the person, customer event it commemorates. The Museum is thoroughly fire-proof and guarded so that the relics placed there will be in no danger of destruction. Through the generosity of Mrs. de Renne, of New York, formerly of Savannah, Georgia has the nucleons of a magnificent collection, as yet far exceeding in yalue that of any other state. Let Georgia keep to the front in this patriotic work, i,Among the ladies in charge of the .Museum are Mrs. Joseph Bryan, Fies ident; Mrs. Lizzie Cary Daniel, Cor responding Secretary; Mrs. James R. Wertb, Chairman of Relic Committee , Miss Winnie Davis, Regent for Mis sissippi; Miss Mildred Lee, Regent for Virginia; Miss Daisy Hampton, Re gent for South Carolina; Mrs James P. Harrison, Vicc-Rcgent tor Georgia, and other well-known Southern women. It is desired that all ’ contributions from Georgia be fowayded as early as possible to Mrs. Joseph Bryan, Presi dent, Richmond, Ya., or to ROBERT E. PARK, for Georgia, Macon, Ga.
