There’s no use creating discord just because there appears to be no other way to keep up the excitement. Mr. P. J, Breckmans, the best au thority on fruit in Georgia, says do not accept the estimates of the fruit crop until alter April 10. We are not past the possible danger from frost uu* til then. Capt. Jack Hayes, of St. Louis, is said to bo the oldest veteran soldier in the world. He is 110 years of age, fought with Jack sou al New Orleans, ran a slave ship and was an engineer on the first steamboat built in New Orleans. In the event of war with Spain, we may expect an Indian uprising out west. It baa always happened in such cates. Thus there will be much op portunity lor those who are so ambi tious to serve their country on the tented field. As a precaution againat accidental poisoning, the German government passed a law requiring all drugs in tended for internal use to be put in round bottles, and those which are only used externally to be placed in hexagonal bottles. Governor Taylor advises young wo men to look to fat and baldheaded men for the meek and submissive husband, 'for," said he, "fatness and baldness are the symbols of good nature and submission, and of such men is the kingdom of heaven.” Rev. James Needham (Methodist) of Surrey county, North Carolina, who wHI be 91 years old in May, is still en gaged in the active work of the minis try. He has been a minister lor more than seventy-five years and has preach ed to five generations. That Panama canal is not talked of much, but 3,500 negroes are at work on it every day, and some day it will be finished and that fearful trip sround the horn will be abandoned. The French keep working away al their ditch to eave the money already in vested. Bays the Columbus Enquirer Sun : "Senator Bacon, of Georgia, offers the only proper solution of the Hawaiian question io an amendment offered to the annexation resolution, which pro vides that the resolution shall not be come effective until the people have voted the question of annexa tion. This is democratic, but it may not suit the senators.- Those who favor annexation know that it will never do to leave this question to the people. The people are not looking for leprosy.” It is the desire of the pastors of the Methodist churches at Atlanta to bring the congregations and the churches as religious communities together and make them more of a union. This, they think, will greatly facilitate the work of the pastors and give an impe tus to the cause of Methodism in that city. The object of the union will be to conduct public worship in a more rl . concerted manner. The pastors will talk over the question of a revival and co-operate in bolding a large one when it is the proper time. .... ■ ■ • ■■ . . 7 :— — .■ <? IN WINTER QUARTERS. ,J. ~ _ -- I (tare Taken to Protect Yacht. From Ce!4 ( and Mormi. ( The value at yacht property floating in j the waters of and adjacent to the shores of New England and the middle states is in ‘ Itself an amount surprising to those who ' have given only a passing thought to tho 1 subject. When it can be safely estimated ( that invested in the luxurious pastime is ( • sum equal to tho taxable basis of a city i almost the size of Hartford, much of which ( to thoughtlessly exposed to climatic and other conditions which rapidly depreciate its worth, it will bo realized what a large amount of property is constantly placed I at tho hazard of unusual risks. This is ( especially noticeable during tho winter months, when the pleasure yachts are out of commission and are often left in charge of a single keeper, whose position is oven . more responsible than that of n captain in tho summer season. Tho latter, If any . thing unusual occurs, has tho entire crew at his command to avert tho impending disaster. This is not so with the boat keeper, who is forced to cope with any emergency single handed. Tho principal basins wherein yachts are stored sor 1 the winter are interesting in the extreme to tho enthusiastic yachtsman With few exceptions tho larger boats are stripped of their sails and running rigging and are moored in some sheltered spot that offers protection from the fierce storms of the cold season. Their bright work is cov ered with tarpaulins The wise yacht owner takes the additional precaution to ■elect a spot exempt from deleterious man ufactories that tend to pollute the waters Smaller yachts are hauled out of the wa ter, spars taken out and the shining hulls entirely covered with canvas They are not left in this state throughout tho frosty weather. but whenever there is a bright, warm day storm covers are thrown off, hatches opened and the sunshine is allowed to stream Ih for a few hours. Fires arc also kindled in both galley and cabin, so as to thoroughly dry the air. Balls require more carethan tho layman would suppose. Not only does the clever yachtsman, who values his property cor rectly, store them in a perfectly dry place, but three or four tlntes during the winter he will haul them out and give a chance to "old Sol" to dispel any tendency to mildew. Then, too, the luxurious fur 8 nlshlngs of many yachts of the present day, which are quite as elaborate and ex pensive as are to be found in the homes es their owners, require the samo considerate care as the household effects of tho man sion on Shora Unfavorable surroundings or unpropltious conditions create a ruin ous effect upon nice materials, bringing loss and damage with telling rapidity, the escape from which is the discreet thought of every careful yachtsman.—New York Sun. A Singular Case. A peculiar case was tried at Dixon re cently before Judga Givens, says the Mad isonville (Ky.) Hustler. Rev. Jesse White • is pastor of what is known as tho Chaly beate church, in Webster county. Onp of tho rules of the church was that the wom en should occupy one side of the house and the men tho other. A transgression of this rule la what caused the trouble. A young man by the name of Crook, from Henderson county, was in the neigh borhood and took his sweetheart to church one night and sat down by her, as he had been accustomed to do at home Rev. Mr. White called attention to tho rule of the church, requiring him to move to tho men’s side. Crook refused, saying ho had i oorno with tho lady, and ho didn’t know of any law ho was violating when he sat by her side. Rev. Mr. White called on some of tho elders to arrest Crook. During this time quite a commotion arose. Finally Crook agreed, rather than be tho cause of so much disturbance, to move over on the men’s side. Rev. Mr. White informed him it was too late, and ordered tho elder to arrest him. Ths elder proceed ed to do so, and a disturbance resulted. Tho whole business was brought into court, and Rev. Mr. White pleaded his own case before tho jury. The jury came to tho conclusion that Rev. Mr. White was tho principal cause of tho disturbance and assessed a fine of $29 upon him. It is about tho first case wo ever heard of where a preacher was flnod for disturbing his own worship. Tho Antiquity of Man. Is this not a oaso in which tho imagina tion may bo fairly invoked in aid of science? May wo not from those data at tempt in sotno degree to build up and re construct the early history of the human family? There, in eastern Asia, in a trop ical climate, with tho means of subsistence readily at hand, may wo not picture to ourselves our earliest ancestors gradually developing from a lowly origin, acquiring a taste for hunting, if not indeed being driven to protect themselves from tho beasts around them and evolving tho more oom plicated forms of tools or weapons from tho simpler flakes which had pre viously served them as knives? May wo not imagine that when once the stage of civilization denoted by these paloolithio implements had been reached tho gamo for the hunter became scarcer and that his life in consequence assumed a more nomad character? Then, and possibly not till then, may a ■erics of migrations to “fresh woods and pastures new" not unnaturally havo en sued, and these following the usual course of "westward toward the setting sup" might eventually lead to a paleolithic population finding its way to tho extreme boarders of western Europe, where we find such numerous traces of its presence How long a term of years may bo involved in such a migration it is impossible to say, but that such a migration took place the phenomena seem to justify us in believ ing.—Sir John Evans in Popular Science Monthly. A Cooking Box of Wood. Tho various experiments made with solar engines by tho French in Algeria, where tho sun shines at all times and with great power, have been attended in some instances with marked success. Tho best apparatus is stated to boa simple arrange ment of boiler and concave mirror, the stonm generated being condensed in a coiled tube surrounded by water, this be Ing intended for distilling water merely. But in India an Inventor named Adams has contrived somo machines by which more varied results are accomplished. One of these is what is termed a cooking box, made of wood and lined with reflecting mirrors, at the bottom of the box being a small copper boiler, covered with gloss to retain the heat of the rays concentrated by mirrors upon die boiler. In this contriv ance any sort of food may be quickly cooked, tho result being a stew or boil if the steam is retained, or if allowed to escape it is a bake. The heat with this device may be augmented indefinitely by increasing the diameter of the box.—-Phil adelphia Ledger. Tax Receivers Notice for 1898.
