the woman on the back of the neck
just at the base of the skull, knocking
her completely down. Laura mans
aged to get out of the house and
started across the Arid to Abbie
Hall’s near by, followed by Charlie,
who overtaking her, caught hold of
her clothing in the back and the
basque giving away came complete¬
ly off, leaving the woman in a state
of UHL. semi-nudity. Hi. Charlie had his
knife ontby this time and taking hold
of one of the womans breasts, said
he was going to cut it off. The wo¬
man told him that instead of catting
her he had better put something
around her. Whereupon he palled
off his ragged coat and threw it over
her shoulders. She, however, in
the struggle which went on all

being serious. Officers were called

miserable. I have my hands full, and
to take up other work should have to
give up much of that I now have;
consequently I really do not think
about politics in a>erio«s way.”
“Have you ever said you would
run for Congress in this district?
“No, I have not. I have had
great many people to talk asked to 'Ms i
about it, and many have me to
run, but as I say, I have never given
isfied with my work but I am proud
of my profession. I may drift into
politics some time or other, for it
seems to be the fashionable thing to
do; but I Should divide the allegiance
I now give to journalism with great
reluctance and misgiving.”
Those who are well acquainted with
Mr. Grady will know how to take
this.
SUMMER IS HEBE.
“la it hot enough for you.”
Bang!
Whoa the mercury climbs up to 98
mad 94 in the shade and the hygrom¬
eter 75 to 80 per cent, of humidity,
it is hot and the heat is oppressive.
We may as well make up our minds
that summer is here.
People should eat and dress to suit
the season. If they don’t they will
suffer for it. More important than
dress, however, are some other
things. When it is hot, yon most
not hurry, nor fret, if yen don’t want
to be extremely uncomfortable, and
ran the risk of collapsing altogether.
Further, it does no good to pour
down large quantities of so-called
“cooling drinks.” Cooling drinks in
summer time are for the most part a
snare and delusion, andif they have
any alcohol in them they are still
worse.
Dress as comfortable as you can,
take things as easy as you can, eat
and drink moderately and of things
adapted to the season, and the heat
will not trouble you half as much as
it otherwise would.

Grady Too Fat for the Bars.
The Baroesv ’e Gazette, in refer-
ri ig to Henry Grady’# alleged eandi-
dacy for governor, pays:
Returning to Grady the correepon-
dent, to disarm suspicion, declares
that “We_got these lines not as the
champion of Mr. Grady,” and con-
eludes that *no one w ; ll be more sur-
prised at reading this than Mr. Gra-
dy.” It is some time yet till this
Me warm weather and Grady is rath¬
er fat to be pushed on the track so
far in advance. The Cbror ; c*e cor¬
respondent shows great ignorance of
the facts or misrepresents his knowl r
edge when he says Northern and
Blonnt are personally known to but
few. We have not the slightest doubt
but. either of them are personally
known to twice as many men in
Georgia as Grady.
We havelnot the slightest doubt
bat that either of them are more
thoroughly r’igned with the real in¬
terests and welfare of the masses
than Grady. Let truth prevail, as
we go marching on,
