AWFUL ACCIDENT!
TERRIBLE EXPLOSION !
A few nights ago, a wagon loaded with
cabbage heads and chestnuts drove into
one of the numerous so-called railroad
cities of N. E. Georgia. About 9 o'clock
at night, while three of the principal mer
chants were out at the wagon drumming
for the man’s trade, a terrible explosion
occurred, instantly killing the three mer
chants and putting one eye out and tearing
of! the roof of the wagoner's nose. The
coroner's inquest decided that the deaths
occurred from combustible combustion,
caused by the gasses from the thawing cab
bage heads mixing with the wind from the
chestnuts. The explosion threw the ches
nuts all over the city and broke nearly
every pane of glass in it. Amidst the
confusion the preacher of the place left his
lot gate open, and his half-starved cow got
out and eat up the only bale of cotton that
had been brought there for over a month.
It is now proposed to get another cow or
two and a few more bales of “yallcr”
cotton and start a paper mill.

A Die Horse Trap.
On last Thursday morning during a stiff'
wind storm, a sudden gust blew down to
the sills the large new livery stable owned
by Dr. W. A. Skelton. The stable was
100 feet long. There were fifteen horses
and mules in it, two or three belonging to
citizens of the county, the rest the proper
ty of a drover from Franklin, N. C., Mr.
Stephen Porter. One of the drove horses
was killed outright and seven badly in
jured. The Dr. has rebuilt already just
in rear of the old site. It is providential
that no one was killed, as generally some
one is in the stable at all hours of the day.
A t'artl,
I desire to return my sincere thanks to
the sympathetic and hospitable citizens of
Hartwell for their prompt assistance in
extricating my imprisoned horses from be
neath the fallen stables on last Thursday.
Every man worked as hard as if his own
property was at stake. Again I thank you,
gentlemen, one.and all. Hut Mr. G. \V.
Freeman is a very kind gentleman (?) —only
charged me one dollar for hauling the dead
horse off.
Respectfully,
Stephen Porter.

The credit system died suddenly in Hart
County on the Ist instant. It was a sur
prise to a few but the knowing ones were
looking for it; and no one should have
thought of anything else, as all the consti
tutional conventions and legislatures since
the war have done all in their power for the
protection of dishonest people and rascals.
Perhaps that was the only way the credit
system could be killed, and taking that
view of the lawmakers' acts, they will be
an advantage in the long run. When a
a man gets credit now it will not be based
upon the amount of his property, or the
Church or moral society to which he be
longs.
Allen Magee has an ancient mule that
had never been touched with shears. No

elected Coroner they might shear his mule
publicly. Saturday after the election he
rode the mule to a gathering, and the bays
sheared it so close that it don’t seem as if
mane will ever come up again, and the tall
looks like a broken finger. Allen says it
is all right, but he is mighty sorry they dvd
not leave a hand holt. The boys sent a
sample of the tail to “ Old B.’’ who uses
it to tickle his nose when he wants to
sneeze. He says they must have picked
out all the gray hairs and gave the sample
a couple of coats of Tutt’s hair dye, judg

Because the penalties of physiological
law are not executed speedily, some fancy
they are void. But when the system j
breaks down, and almost hopeless compli
cations arise, which the family physician, 1
by reason of his limited experience, fails
to relieve, the pertinency of the above in
quiry is apparent. Many remedies have
been specially prepared for these cases,
and many physicians arc bidding for their
patronage. As before making a purchase
of land, a “ search ” is required, and the
title carefully examined, so invalids should
carefully investigate the claims of any
physician utiering to treat chronic diseases.
Dr. Pierce's Family Medicines arc well
known, and have effected many cures
where eminent practicing physicians have
failed, yet to accommodate surgical and
complicated cases, and those desitous ol
being restored speedily. Dr. Pierce has
erected an elegant sanitarium, at a cost of
nearly half a million dollars. No institu
tion in the world offers advantages superi
or to those found in this establishment.
Half a score of physicians are in attend
ance, several of whom have been promi
; nently connected with leading American
and European Hospitals. Every improv
ed facility for hastening a cure that a lib
eral expenditure of money could secure
can here be found. Before fully deciding
where to go, address Invalid's an J Tourists'

Lost Half of Their Must ache.
A handsome and popular drummer, who
prided himself upon his magnificent mus
tachc, was here a few days ago clean-shav
ed. During the Christmas holidays he and
another drummer, who had also an enor
mous mustache, were sleeping in a room
with two other drummers who had to leave
on an early train. The latter two arose
early in the morning, and, seeing a pair of
shears on the table, the boys could not re
sist the temptation to play off a joke on the
sleepers. They clipped off one side of
each of their mustaches, and silently stole
away When the unfortunate fellows
awoke, one of them said to the other ;
“ Hello, S , the rats have had hold of
your mustache.” To which he replied :
“ You needn't talk ; for I'll be d—d if they
haven't been going for you, too.”
If those boys could have traveled togeth
er, they would still have had one line mus
tache between them ; but they had to sepa
rate, and consequently shaved oft' the odd
one, and are now traveling with clean faces.

This is the most recently discovered, and
perhaps the most remarkable, of all the
coal tar or aniline group of coloring sub
stances, now so extensively used for the
adornment of the finest fabrics. Uranine
is said, by chemists, to be the most highly
fluorescent body known to science. Us col
oring power is astonishing; a single grain
will impart a marked color to nearly live
hundred gallons of water.
A most interesting experiment, which
anybody may try, consists in sprinkling a
few atoms of Uranine upon the surface of
of water in a glass tumbler. Each atom
immediately sends down through the water
what appeors to be a bright green rootlet;
and the tumbler soon looks as if it were
crowded full of beautiful plants. We are
indebted for examples of the color to the
editors of the Scientific American, who
are sedeing out specimens, free of charge
to all their readers. Subscription to the
paper is $3.20 for a year, or SI.OO half year,
and a better investment for the money
could hardly be named.

Old man Benson, the Father of The Sun,
, has things slightly twisted in his observa-
I tions on the article headed, “ Defective
j Education,” in our “Spice Box.” There-
I ference was to the volunteer driver , and not
to the owners of the team. But we pre
sume such little mistakes are to be ex
pected at this season. Hartwell is near
the mountains, and the juice of the corn
comes there unadulterated. But truth
fully. Bro. Benson's share must have been
extra strouy , and crooked at that, to have
produced so cross-eyed an effect. We are
sure of it, as he spoke of "spindle-shanked”
town people, including the "spice” grinder
of this box. There is an old adage that
we will recall to our brother's attention
about " People who live in glass houses,
Ac.”
If our memory serves us, when we last
seen brother Benson, it did not occur to us
that his calves were padded. In fact, we
stepped out more boldly—feeling there
could be no danger for us, if he was will
ing to trust his shanks.—Athens Chronicle.
My Dear Athens Chronicle Brother: I
acknowledge the corn in one respect, and
that is, I did know the “defective educa
tion ” was not meant for the women ; but
you left a gap down and I took advantage
of it, as I felt like quarreling with some
body, and as there were over forty miles
of mud ana slush between us thought it
would be a safe one. If this apology is
not sufficient say where I must meet you
