THE GEORGIA DELEGATION,
c liuaicial < ircuautaaees of t
Congressinan.
The richest Georgian in the house
delegation is Air. Candler, whose pile
is estimated at $100,000. Twenty
years ago be was quite poor and
taught school at Forsyth, then at
Griffia and later on at Jonesboro. As
a school teacher he was popular, and
some of us who are associated with
him to-day have felt tbe smart of
bis birch an at odd times received at
his bands our red and blue tickets
for proficiency. When the Air Line
railway penetrated to Gainesville
Mr. Candler followed it and made bis
first money in the Inmber trade, Hi»
real estate in Gainesville is very val
uabie at this time.
Mr. Blount ranks next to Mr.
Candler in point of wealth. He has
rich farming interests in the county
of Jones, and some equally valuable
real estate in the city of Macon, and
besides he is accredited with more or
less hard cash. He is a man of eco
nomical habits, and his salary sup
j ports him comfortably.
i Judge Stewart is neither rich nor
poor. He has farming lands about
j Griffin, and real estate in that thrifty
; town. At a rough guess I would

Cbistw Shoe* and Shoemaking.
Shoemaking, shoe mending and shoe
selling are distinct branches of business
in China. Chinese shoes exhibit great
variety of shape. Except in the hob
nailed shoe for wet weather, there is
little leather used—the materials being
principally Children's calico, silk, satin, velvet and
felt. summer shoes are made
of fine open rush work, with bright lin
ing. Ladies' shoes are made and mended
by their wearers. From childhood the
girls of the upper classes have their feet
tightly bound, and they are thus, at the
cost of years of suffering, enabled to
wear shoes about three inches long. The
Chinese cobbler goes from house to house,
and announces his presence with a pecu¬
liar rattle.—Philadelphia Times.
Something About “Zante Currant*.”
The word currant is said to be a cor¬
ruption of Corinth, a city from which
once came all the Greek currants. The
currants, commonly called zante, are
really raisins, produced from a grape that
grows no larger than peas, like the
American wild or fox grapes, and hangs
in bunches only three inches long. These
grapes are dried in the sun, and then
stored in bulk, where the sugar that
exudes from them makes them into
masses so compact that they bare to be
dug apart by force when wanted. They
are prepared Y#d for shipment by being put
into casks packed into a solid mass
by being trodden by the feet of the na¬
tives.—New York Sun.
Duration of Infection Stages.
The duration of the infection stages of
various diseases is thus giv'ii by Dr. T.
F. Pearse, an English physician. Measles
from the second day of tbe disease, for
three weeks; smallpox from the first day,
for four weeks; scarlet fever from the
fourth day. for seven weeks; mumps
from the second day. for three weeks;
diphtheria from the first day, for three
weeks. The incubation periods, or in¬
tervals occurring between exposure to
infection and the first symptoms, are as
follows: Whooping cough., fourteen
days; mumps, eighteen days; measles,
ten days; smallpox, twelve days; scarlet
fever, three days: diphtheria, fourteen
days.— Herald of Health.
Made Her Feel at Home.
A lady from Nebraska was the guest of
a Pittsburg family. .Vs the thermometer
only touched zero once during the winter
the fair stranger would have been home¬
sick but for the thoughtfulness of her
host. By an ingenious arrangement a
powerful fan drove snow dust in her face
every time she opened the front door. The
snow was ban kid against the windows of
her room and her meals let down the
chimney with a string. Another device
imitated the roar of a blizzard, and so
soothed her to gentle slumber—wherein
she dreamed of her native state. These
little attentions deeply touched the fair
guest.—Pittsburg Bulletin.
Florida’* Opium Industry.
Florida promises to become a large
producer of opium. The poppy grows
there very readily, and larg* r than any¬
where else in the United States. Sixteen
plants will produce an ounc of opium,
and an acre-iioul 1 give a profit of $1,-
000.. As th plants wiil thrive among
trees, the 1; 1 <*n which art 1 young and
non-bearing .range < r<ii ;rd« can lie util¬
