Editor Ciikuiy of tho Fort Valley

According to the Cincinnati Enquirer
there is in Ohio an 8-year old girl who

Tub old home of the late Gov. Q V.
Johnson, at Johnson station on the Cen

Yes, but although Judge Crisp weighs
b quarter of a ton, liis finest Impressions
will not bs made simply by his avoir

weigh all the balance of him, as Tom
Kecd will find out when Crisp begins to

Hon. Henry Watteiison says: “But
truly, if the skies should rain silver, if
silver dollars should he heaped up in
the valleys so thattlioao who are making
such an ado about more money could fill
their sacks and baskets and could carry
it away with them, It would, under the
present tariff system find itself back to
the pieaent custodians of the wealth of
the country, looting the farmer as poor
at over."
John Buev, the deposed manager of
the Adams Express Company, began
with its foueders, Mr. Adams and Wm.
Dinsmore, both now dead, in a cellar on
Broadway, at the time James Gordon
Bsnnett and lloraeo Greeley were estab
lishing their great newspapers. Patrick
Family was also then In a basement on
Nassau street, establishing the American
News Company. All were poor when
they began and struggled hard; bat
every one of them succeeded In msking
many millions.
An Atlanta paper observed In its
Tuesday’s Issue: "There should be a
full delegation of Georgia editors to
morrow, (yesterday), at the unveiling of
the Grady monument,” and that paper
"would be gratified to see a full delega
tion of the country press In attendance
on tho exercises." The committee of
arrangements thought differently. That
committee did not want any editors of
the Georgia country press at the exer
cises; and so did not Invite one of these
editors to be there.—'Tribane of Romo.
The New York Timet publisher as a
genuine sensation, that while Mrs.
Lease, of Kansas, has been hurling
anathema at corporations and railroad
kings, she travels all over Kansas on
(me passes. That's nothing, there were
central secret of railroad wreckers la
the Georgia Legislature thst did worse
than that; they not only traveled on free
pastes ever the railroads thsy sought to
destroy, bat they drew mileage from the
state treasury that was appropriated for
the tele purpose of paying thsir railroad,

Tbe late Albert Lamas, formerly of
the Xaeoa Telegraph, so nearly resem

frequently mistaken one for tho other.
In the Atlanta office of the Telegraph,
up on Broad street, there art now two

A CONDITION, NOT A THEOBT.
Here Lies a Theory: at 8 p. m.—“Mrs.
Cleveland, I have noticed s woful popu
lar ignorance of the effect* of narcotics
upon children. Now, my dear, I have
determined to carry out my theory re
garding the rearing of children. You
will, therefore abstain ffom ever giving
Ruth any ayrupe, paregoric or like
stuffs," shrewdly surmises the Memphis
Appeal.
“All right, Grover, dear. I shall
throw away all the sedative medicines,
shall I?”
“Certainly, Mrs. Cleveland, certainly.
Throw that physic to the dogs I will
bo odo man who will show enough prac
tical interests in human welfare to op
pose, by prccopt and example, all stupe
fying of iufsntilu brains with poisonous
drugs.”
And Here Comes a Condition: at 3 a
m.—“Mrs. Cleveland, I do wish you
would get up and look for the paregoric
or something else to make this calliope
go to sleep. I am tired ot this noc
turne.”
“Why, Grover, you know you told me
to throw away tho paregoric and sooth
ing syrup. Your theory—”
“Kxcuso mo, Mrs, Cleveland, but it is
a condition not a theory that confronts
now. No paregoric in the house?
That’s nice, I suppose I’ll have to jig
this out until daylight. Oh, that ntino
enemy would have a baby. I’d give the
vote of the New York delegation to see
bald-headed Dave Bill prancing around
like I am, and no paregoric in the house.
‘Uusli-a-bye, baby, on the tree top.' ”
TUB CUI PHI CONVENTION.
1 he college secret fraternities are
holding conventions, and having ban
quets most numerous just now, nnd
among those soon to take place I* that
of tbe Chi Phi Fraternity in Atlanta on
November 12 and 13.
The convention will assemble Thurs
day November 12th, and will bo wel
comed by Judge A. E. Calhoun of At
lanta. That evening i» reception will be
tendered complimentary to the Frater
nity.
On Fiiday evening tbe annual banquet
will be held at the Kimball houee, when
tbe convention oration will be delivered
by it. W. Patterson, Esq., of Macon,
Ga., and the convention poem by L. L.
Knight, Esq.
It is the purpose to make tho conven
tion a grand social reunion of Chi Phis
from all eections; and through Mr' C. F.
Rice chairman of the committee of ar
rangements is conveyed to all members
of the fraternity everywhere the enthu
siastic anil unanimous Invitation of the
Atlanta Chi Phis to bo present
There are several members of the fra
ternity in Americas among the Alumni
of Athens and Emory, who will nodoubt
m:iko it convenient to attend.
A coItItKHdonDENT of the Macon Tele
graph in Atlanta says that notwithstand
ing that the Whitfield bill has received
the approval of the governor and is now
a law, the Southeastern Tariff Associa
tion may continue to exist (or somo time
to come yet. When the Whitfield hill
passed, it was generally thought that it
moant tlie speedy death of the South
eastern Tariff Association. Its aim was
to prevent pools or combinations of In
surance companies, and the Inaurance
men themselves accepted It as a matter
of course that the tariff association, so
far as its operation in Georgia is con
cerned, would be compelled to dissolve.
But under Comptroller General Wright’s
view, the Southeastern Tariff Associa
tion may go on unmolested for yean,
notwithstanding tbe Whitfield law, un-
leaa complaint U made against some
company In It. Even then It muit be
shown that the affeot of tbe association
la to defeat or lessen competition. Tbe
Insurance men claim that It doe* not
bnt really reduces rates and therefore
the new law may not destroy the associ
ation after all.
“New Yorb la Importing English bar
mslds. An English bsrmaid, with a
red nook nnd mole on her upper Up, Is
beautiful sight. Ward McSwallow
tail's four hundred wiU probably begin to
infest the barrooms.” Editor Howell, it
may be surmised from this paragraph,
never saw n genuine KogUsh barmaid on
her native heath. They are selected for
their good looks: and as a class are the
prettiest women In England. The most
faultlessly beautiful woman the writer
of this ever saw was an English barmaid
la the Colonial Exhibition In London In
1886.
Editor Batnb of Augusta has a aly
way paying backhanded compliments.
He taye: “Mr. John T. Clayton of Co
lumbus has secured a patent on a water
wheel which may make a revolution.”
“May make a revolution" la good, for
a wheel that Is patented for the very
purpoee ol revolving In great style.
‘Georgia will indeed be prond of Cecil
Gabbett when be becomes general man
ager of the Chicago St Northern rail
road.” Does that mean that the farther
Mr. Gabbett gets from Georgia the
prouder Editor Bayne feels?
