THE QUEER OHBYSAITHBKUM.
Editor Htovnll of the Savannah
PresB has favored his friends
tfto public with many beautiful gems
of thought, hut the following prose
poem outehinoth all the stars that
his genius hath created and wafted
like phantoms of delight into the
literary firmament:
“Hake way for the chrysanthe¬
mum. In these autumn days tho
breath of frost is in the air. The
trees hang out their semaphores in
gold ( id bronze and signal to expir¬
ing summer that they are ready to
surrender. The roses give up the
breath of June and blush like the
checks of thebeheaded queen before
their lifeblood ebbs away.) The
goldenrod with slim and graceful
staff throws out ita subtle sparks and
gentle showers; but the chrysanthe¬
mum o'ertops them all and makes the
last stand against the onward march
of winter, a brave and stubborn pro¬
test against death and decimation.
“In the midst of this last redoubt
of summer's sw*y the chrysan¬
themum looms up like reserves and
cheers all drooping plant life. In
her petals live again the heart and
grace of all the flowers. The pink
of spring is filtered through her
bloom like the warmth of peach-
blows. The royal flush of summer
is Incarnadined in her bosom, the
rich tints of autumn are reflected in
her form and feature, while with
her slender fingers she garners the
frost and plants them in cushions of
driven snow.
“The chrysanthemum, like the
oonstellation of A returns, rises just
before the wintry storm. It is the
last burst the rocket makes before
its fires all go out; it is the splendid
charge which expiring nature urges
against the blight of autumn’s
legions, with ail her banners waving
and all her energies resummoned
and reset.
The chrysanthemum pervades
all space, enriches the vases of all
homes, illumines the hedges of all
gardeners, and reclaims like an all
conquering sunburst the autumn of
the year. Without the chrysanthe¬
mum the flowers would go out sud¬
denly, hopelessly, like the Arctic
day. With it the breath of spring,
the vitality of summer, the mellow
joys of autumn are embodied and re¬
fracted—suspended like a beautiful
mirage, reflecting the form aud fra¬
grance, the hue, the life, and light
of summer days long after the sum¬
mer orb itself has set.
Hail, beautiful chrysanthemum!
thou Orient queen, star-eyed and
golden-hearted, the lost to linger at
the sepulchre of the seasons, to
pour balsamic odor like alabaster
ointment upon the fading footsteps
of the dying year. ” <
A Hint to Atlanta.
Brunswick Times.
Is the brutal assassination of
Policeman Ponder to go on record as
another instance of unpunished
crime in the city of Atlanta?
If it does, and no one is made to
pay the penalty for this cowardly
murder, Atlanta may well expect
the criticism of the country. Al¬
ready, murderers, thieves, swin¬
dlers, and many other classes of
criminals have notoriously eluded
the officers of the law in that city,
•nd the docket of unpunished of
fences is nearly as large as the rec¬
ord of those punished.
Atlanta's most Atrocious murder¬
er, Myers, is free; one of her most
cowardly assassins, Carr, is spending
a pleasant period in the lunatic asy¬
lum ; her mpst polished thief, Caasin,
is at large and unfollowed ; the re
oent cold-blooded murder of a young
man by a burglar has been dropped;
and now, the police are engaged in
the comparatively easy task of not
finding out who killed one of the
bravest officers of their force.
Atlanta should take a hint and be
stir herself in the punishment of
crime in future. The city’s reputa¬
tion has been injured enough al
ready.
Ttw Mon Who Now Holds Mrs. My-
rick’s Hand.
Jonesboro Enterprise
Some gallant newspaper friend of
Mrs. Myrick recently made very
favorable mention of her in connec¬
tion with the governorship, and that
brilliant and worthy woman notes it
as follows: “The editor of the
Times Recorder acknowledges the
compliment with due modesty but
cannot consistently consent to accept
the gracious nomination. She is not
only opposed to the appearance of
her sex in offices of public trust, but
she could never antagonize the aspi¬
rations of a handsome and ambiti
ous gentleman who is willing to
serve his people and whose hand
holds the feeble one that controls
this pen in the grasp of .a long and
enduring friendship. ”

If the Australian ballot law is
adopted, as we believe it should be,
the primary election law should also
be so amended as to come within its
provisions. In most counties in
Georgia the primary settles the
election and it should be guarded
with equal oaxe.
Hie Dodson insurance bill, which
has been favorably reported by the
house judiciary committee, is a mat
ter of considerable importance to
insurance policy holders and in¬
surance people of the State. The
bill provides for the repayment oi
premiums with legal interest to the
policy holder where the company
contests a policy and wins the suit.
The company is required to deposit
with the court the full amount of
the premiums paid, with interest,
before it “can put in issue any mat¬
ter of defense to show that said
policy was void in its inception. ”
There are no real Democrats afraid
of tile issue for 1900. The voice oi
the people last year, recorded at the
ballot box, showed 6,600,000 votes
ready to live or die by the Demo¬
cratic platform under the leadership
of William J. Bryan. The same voice
this year, swelled to an overwhelm¬
ing chorus in Hew York and rever¬
berating through the great Central
States westward, indicates an
amazing addition to these huge fig-
ures. It indicates that had the elec¬
tions been general, for the presi¬
dency, the Democratic triumph
would have been complete, and Mo-
Kinleyism and Rannaism would
have been to-day forgotten terms.
Democracy is on the up grade. It
has passed through t he fire which
chasteneth. It has demonstrated
anew its right of existence and with
the same courage, pluck, honesty
and leadership, 1900 will see it tri¬
umphant, vindicated and ruling the

New York. Nov. 15,— A dispatch to
Th# World from Honolulu, dated Oct.
97, say*: Saufprd B. Dole, pretideul of
♦he provisional republic of Hawaii, and
Chief Justice Judd are anxious to have
the Hawaiian annexation treaty ratified
as soon as possible, Said President Dole:
“The people will never again submit
to u monarchy. In fact, there is no
one sufficiently enjoying the coufldeuoe
of the people of these islands to conduct
the affaire of state under a monarchy.”
••Why do they not desire to continue
os on independent republic?” he was
asked.
"As the islands are so far away from
other countries aud as the Asiatic pop¬
ulation is increasing in number, it is a
serious question, if they are left alone,
whether the republic could survive with
the willing consent of the foreigner*.
Besides if the United States has con¬
stantly to protect tbe islands under tbe
present government, why should not
the United States take them altogether?
This is a great country for commerce; it
is the natural land for Amerioan owner¬
ship. It lean American colony, anyway,
so far as business, capital and industry
is concerned, and it should be a part of
♦he body politio of tbe United Statea”
Chief Justice Judd said in an inter¬
view:
"During the reign of King Kalakeu
there were 30 cabinets, so diwatisfled
and unstable was the king. The only
branch of the government that was not
disturbed was the judiciary. The res¬
toration of the monarchy is an impossi¬
bility. There is no material to make
a monarchy out of. Nor can one hope
to maintain a republic independently.
We must look to the United Ststea
We have'now come to the turning point
and we must either become Asiatio or
Anglo-Saxon. Oar commerce is with
tbe United States, we are in the zone of
American influence, and if the United
States continue to exercise protection
and assume responsibility for os, they
ought to have something to say about
how our affairs are directed.”
The news that has reached here from
Sau Francisco that Samuel Parker, a
prominent native leader, and hereto¬
fore,a strong royalist, bo* declared in
favot of annexation, has caused quite a
sensation among the natives wuo ore
still opposed to annexation.
FOUND DEAD IN OLD FIELD.

Faikburs, Ga., Nov. 15.—Some coun¬

about 2 miles from town, came across a
moat ghastly spectacle—that of a man
and two women who had been shot to
death, and whose heads were crashed
almost beyond recognition. Henry Tur¬
They were found to be
ner, a peaceable negro, and Ins wife
and sister. How long the bodies had
lain there, there is no telling. About 18
o’clock people in that vicinity heard
■hots, and the only theory that can be
reached is that soma euomy of Henry
Turner came upon him for the purpose
of revenge, and finding the two women
present also, found' it necessary to kill
them as well
The discovery of the bodies created
intense excitement throughout oil that
neighborhood, aud it was not long be¬
fore several hundred persons had col¬
lected around the spot.
Bloodhounds were sent for and taken
to the field, where they soon picked up
a trail, aud are now in pursuit.

Naples. Not. IS.—The eruption of
Mount Vesuvius, which began ou Mon¬
day, is increasing in activity, ,/ 1 'he
spectacle now is subtime. Great col*
uuius of sluoke and huge tougnes of
flame are issuing from >be central
crater, while showers of cinders, are
fsiling-aronnd.
The eruption has assumed a charijcter
now which calls so mind the memora¬
ble eruption of this same volcano 18
centuries ago, when P.mipeu, Hercula¬
neum, Stabiau aud other places within
a ran ire of 20 miies were buried iu ashes,
their iuhabitauts perishing. last Monday from
Lava began ponriug which
the Atrio del Oavailo crater,
opened in i895, and soon was flowing
dowu the mountain side in two bri>ad
streams. Now Naples reports smoke and
flame are issuing from the volcano,
whose activity is increasing.
Since the destruction of Pompeii and
Herculaneum there have been numer¬
ous other destructive eruptions, though
none quite so disastrous. Torre del
Greco, with 4,000 persons, was de¬
stroyed in 1031. Ip 1104 lava over¬
flowed 5,000 acres of rioh vineyards aud
cultivated land. Torre, del Greco was
homed for the second time and the top
of tbe mountain fell iu, making the
crater near.y 'J miles in circumference.
Torre del Greco was destroyed for the
third time in 1891. In 1878 lava was
spouted to the height of 300 feet
More thau 50 eruptions have been re¬
corded up to the present time, most of
them comparatively harmless.
Wiiat is reported as smoke coming
from the crater is steam, more or less
blackened by incinerated dust. When
this oust is in excess it accelerates the
fall of the steam, which, having become
water by condensation, descends iike a
mud torrent, flooding the ground. This
was a feature of the eruption when
Pompeii wa» blotted out
What appears as flame shooting out
of the crater is the reflection of the mol¬
ten lava within the crater upon the
steam and upon the a-hes suspended iu
the steam accumulated above it The
rapid coudeusiug of vapor into water
aud tire conversion ot this iuto steam
generates electricity, which explains the
lightning effects visible ou the edges ot
the clouds overhanging the crater.
CavOf term* McClinker.
At the Westminster swimming baths
in London Cavill, the Australian cham¬
pion, recently beat McCusker in the
first of three races arranged for distances
of a quarter mile, one-half mile and
800 yards for a pnrse of $ 1,000 to the
winner of tbe two.
Cavill covered the quarter mile in 6
minutes 26# seconds, leading MoCos-
ker by two yards at the finish.
ONE OF TWO WAYS.
The bladder was created for one pur¬
pose, namely, a receptacle for the unne,
uid as such it is not liable to aDy form
of disease except by one of two ways.
The first way is from imperfect action
ot the kidneys. The second way is
from careless local treatment of other
diseases.
CHIEF CAUSE.
Unhealthy urine from unhealthy kid-
ueys is the chief cause of bladder tron-
oles. So the womb, like the bladder,
vas created for one pnrpose, and if nof
icctored too ranch is not liable to weak-
-ipss or disease, except in rare cases. It
is sit ■"■ted back of and very close to th<
bladu... ’h“refore any pain, disease oi
tucourei-i -e manifested m the kid¬
neys. back, l— drier or urinary passage female
is often, by minudie attributed to
weakness or womb trouble of some sort.
The error is easily made and may be as
easily avoided. To find out correctly,
■set your mine aside for twenty-four indi¬
hours; a sediment or settlement
cates kidney or bladder trouble. The
mild and the extraordinary effect of Dr
Kilmer s Swamp-Root, the great kidney
and bladder remedy, is soon realized. If

It has not oorne to that point yet, bnt
the movement is growing in that direc¬
tion.
It is a fact that men are rapidly fail¬
ing in the courtesy which wan once uni¬
formly shown, to women, and the rea¬
son, to a large extent, is that men are
meeting women as competitors in all
fields of labor, and this fact vastly
changes the social relations between the
sexto. Women are claiming all sorts of
equality with uteri, moral, political
and physical, and are declaring more
aud more their independence. The effect
on the next generation will be vary
marked and peculiar. The men and wo¬
men of the present are affected to an
overpowering extent by the influence of
old ideas and training, and that is the
reason they talk about street car man¬
ners arid social ethics in their relations
to the sexes, but in the year 1930, or
the period of one generation from the
present time, people will no longer con¬
cern themselves about such matters.
The greater the number .of women at
work in proportion to the men the more
stringent the competition, and it can
easily be seen that, according to the fig¬
ures shown, the day might come when
there would individual be uo street car manners,
bnt every would look out
for himself or herself, as the case may
be. Bnt even should chivalry he extin¬
guished from human manners there
will always remain the Christian grace
at charity, so in the time to come able-
bodied young men and women who
have seats in the cars will rise to give
their places to old men and women and
to others who may be sick or disabled.

ALL THE OX UTILIZED.
Every Particle Put to C«e—Only Its Dying
Breath Lost.
Tn an article on the “Wonders of the
World’s Waste,” 'William George- Jor¬
dan, in The Ladies’ Home Journal, de¬
tails how science at the present day
utilizes the ox “Not many years ago,”
he says, “when an ox was slaughtered
40 per cent of the animal was wasted.
At the present time ‘nothing is lost but
its dying breath.’ As but one-third cf
the weight of the animal consists of
products that can be eaten, tbe question
of utilizing the waste is a serious one
The blood is used in refining sugar and
in nixing paper or manufactured into
doorknobs and buttons. Tbe hide goes
to the tanner; horns and hoofs are trans¬
formed into combs and buttons; thigh
bones, worth $80 per* ton, are cat iuto
handles for clothesbrnshes; fore leg
bones sell for $30 per ton for collar but¬
tons, parasol handles aud jewelry; the
water in which bones are boiled* is re¬
duced to glue; the dust -from sawing
the bones is food for cattle and poultry;
the smallest bones are made into bone-
black. Each foot yields a quarter cf a
pint of neatsfoot oil; the tail goes to the
“soup, ” while the brush of hair at the
end cf the tail is sold to the mattress
maker. The choicer parts of the fat
make the basis of bntterine; the intes¬
tines are used for sausage casings or
bought by gold beaters. The undigested
food in the stomach, which formerly
cost the packers of Chicago S30.0C0 a
year to remove and destroy, is now
made into paper. These are but a few
of the products of abattoirs. All scraps
unfit for any other use find welcome in
tbe glue pot, or they do missionary

lizers.”

“ Cures talk’Mn favor CDff ■ ■
of Hood’s Sarsaparilla, 5 a $2 £ MjF
os tor no other medi- teto ■ wya
cine. Its great cares recorded in t-ruthfal,
convincing language of grateful men and
women, constitute its most effective ad¬
vertising. Many of these cures are mar¬
velous. They have won tbe confidence of
the people; have given Hood’s Sarsapa¬
rilla the largest rales in the world, and
have made necessary for its manufacture
the greatest laboratory on earth. Hood’s
Sarsaparilla is known by the cures it has
made—cares of scrofula, salt rheum and
eczema, cures of rheumatism, neuralgia
and weak nerves, cures of dyspepsia, liver
and kidney troubles, catarrh and malaria.
Such Cures as This Prove Merit.
“ My little nephew was a plump and
healthy baby until a year and a half old,
then sores brake out behind his ears and
spread rapidly over his head, hands and
body. A physician said the trouble was
scrofula humor in the blood. Tbe child
became one complete sore. We had to
restrain his hands to keep him from
scratching tbe sores. We were induced
to try Hood’s Sarsaparilla, and in a short
time he hsd more life. He improved rap¬
idly, his akin became entirely clear of
sqres and he is now a healthy child.” Mbs.
