IMMENSE SUM FROM RAILROADS
In view of the recent supreme
court decision relative to the tax
ing of securities of the Western
Railway of Alabama held by the
Georgia Railroad and the Central
of Georgia, these latter roads are
liable foi on this stock for
many years back. It is estimated
that by applying the tax rate for
each 3*ear and calculating the
interest at 7 per cent on the un
paid taxes that Georgia will re
ceive about $230,000 from these
two railroads.
In case of the Georgia Railroad
and Banking Company these taxes
are due on its $1,500,000 of Wes
tern of Alabama stock from 1895
up to date, a total of eleven years.
The amount due the state in taxes
by the Georgia road for these
eleven years is $91,708, and the
interest amounts to $26,111 up to
December 20, last, making a total
of $117,519. The interest is still
running, and will continue to run
until the taxes are paid.
In the case of the Central of
Georgia taxes can not be collected
for 1895 because the Central was
not reorganized following the re
ceivership until October of that
year. The Central, therefore, is
liable for only ten years taxes,
with interest on its $1,500,000 of
the Western of Alabama stock,
which amounts to a total of sllO,-
832,20 taxes and interest.
With the interest still accruing
since December 20, it is expected
the total of these two amounts will
reach fully $230,000 before the
payments are made.
While the litigation may be end
ed so far as the state is concerned,
there is still a tight to come be
tween the cities and counties along
the respective lines of the Georgia
and Central qf Georgia railroads,
and those iu which the headquar
ters of these corporations are lo
cated, over 'the question of a
division of the county and muni
cipal taxes on this stock.
Comptroller General Wright
and Attorney General Hart are of
the opinion that this stock, being
personal property, is subject to
taxation at the domicile of the cor
porations in question. That is to
say, Augusta and Savannah should
have the municipal taxes ami
Richmond and Chatham the county
taxes.
The other counties situated on
these lines of railroads and the
other towns and cities on them
will, it is said, contest this j>oint
in the courts, and will endeavor
to secure a division of the taxes
on a mileage basis. The supreme
court did not touch upon this point
in its decision so that it is still
left an open question.
This, however, will not affect
the state’s interest in the litigation.
The state will singly collect its
$230,000 and let the counties and
cities fight it out among themselves.
Wonder what those fellows who
predicted that Clark Howell would
quit the race for governor rather
than meet Hoke Smith in joint
debate think about it now? Albany

TRICK WITH DOMINOES. I
A Feat That Will I'ttxzle Thoae Not f
In the Secret.
An interesting feat can be performed 1
with the dominoes, which the operator j
announce*? as follows: “I will lay the !
dominoe3 in a line, one beside another, |
lying on their faces and making one I
black line. Now I will go into the next
room, with my eyes as closely covered
as you may desire. In my absence you
may take from the line any number of
dominoes you please provided you take
them from that end which is now at
my right hand and place them at the
opposite end. so that, except for the
change in the places of the piece, the
line is just the same as before. On my
return, without uubandaging my eyes.
1 will tell you the number transported
from one end to the other. I will do
more. From the midst of these domi
noes. of which you have changed the
position. I will draw one which, by the
addition of its spots, will tell you ex
actly the number which you took from
right to left. After they have made the
change count with your fingers—if your
eyes are bandaged—the dominoes from
left to right as far as the thirteenth.
The spots on this thirteenth will inva
riably represent the number of domi
noes whose position has been altered.
But in forming the line originally you
must have arranged the first thirteen
dominoes, beginning at the left, so that
the spots on the first form the number
12, of the second 11, of the third 10.
and so on up to a double blank for the
last and thirteenth. You place the oth
er dominoes afterward iu the order in
which they happen to present them
selves.”

THINGS NOT TO EAT.
Aiuonif Tlicui, According to a Med
ical Man, Are Baked Beann.
Abolish soup from the dinner table,
eschew tea aud coffee, pass the baked
beans with silent contempt, beware the
genuine pancake, be not lured into
turning traitor to your stomach by
America’s common enemy, pie; be tran
quil and cheerful at mealtimes, even if
you are nursing a chronic grouch the
rest of the time, and never, never go to
bed with your stomach filled.
These are scattering fragments of a
thirty-two inch shell of advice fired be
fore the Chicago Medical society by Hr.
Edwin B. Tuteur, who lectured ou
“When to Eat. What to Eat and How
to Eat.”
“Soup,” declared the doctor, “is su
perfluous In a substantial dinner menu.
So is tea and so is coffee and, in fact,
any moisture except that which is nat
urally contained in the foods. Soup in
the form of beef broth, without eggs,
cereals or vegetables, would starve a
dog to death In ten days. Beef tea
made from the solid extract sold for
the use of invalids Is a mere stimulant,
a non-nutritions, queer tasting temper
ance drink. .Tea and coffee are not
foods, hut stimulants. They retard di
gestion and often cause gastric catarrh,
nervousness and Insomnia.
“Beans, the dried and baked variety,
cooked with salt pork, are baneful.
Teamsters, soldiers and Boston Intel
lectuals subsist upon them to some ex
tent. Pass them by.”—Chicago Record-

The Beleher Artenlan Well.
The Belcher well in St. Louis is one
of the famous artesian wells of the
world. The boring of it was begun in
the spring of 1549 by William 11. Bel
cher, who had a sugar refinery near tlie
river a few blocks north of whore the
Eads bridge now is. After the expendi
ture of SIO,OOO the well was in 1554
driven to a depth of 2,190 feet, where a
flow of seventy-five gallons a minute
was struck, but the water proved to be
so impregnated with mineral matter
that It was unfit for use In the sugar
refinery, for which Mr. Belcher wanted
It. It is used now only for medicinal
purposes and for sanitary baths.—-St.

NATURE’S CRUELTY.
The Ichneumon Fly Make, It* Nat
ural Enemy Serve It* Purpose.
The Ichneumon fly of Ceylon Is the
natural enemy of the spider. This in
sect Is green in color, and in form re
sembles a wasp with a marvelously
thin waist. It makes its nest of well
worked clay and then goes on a hunt
ing expedition. Its victims are in
variably spiders of various kinds, but
all are subject to the same mode of
treatment. A scientific sting injects
some poison which effectually paralyzes
the luckleo.i spider, which Is then carried
off to the nest and there fastened with
a dab of moist clay. Another and an
other victim is brought to this chamber
of horrors. Then the prescient mother
Ichneumon fly proceeds to deposit her
eggs, one in the b >.ly of each spider,
which can just move i s lag’, i:i a vague,
aimless manner, but can offer no re
sistance.
This done, the fly returns to her work
as a mason. She prepares more clay
and builds up the entrance to this
ghastly cell. Then she commences a
new cell, which she furnishes in like
manner and then closes; then she adds
yet another cell and so proceeds until
her store of eggs are all provided for,
and, her task in life being accomplished,
she dies, leaving her evil brood to hatch
at leisure. In due time these horrid lit
tle maggots come to life and find them
selves cradled in a larder of fresh meat.
Each poor spider is still alive, and his
juices afford nutriment for the ichneu
mon grub till It is ready to pass In the
chrysalis stage, thence to emerge as a
winged fly fully prepared to carry out
the traditions of its ancestors with re
gard to spiders.
Apple Cure For Drunkard*.
“For ten years,” said a physician, “1
have advocated apples as a cure for
drunkenness. In that time I have tried
the apple cure on some forty or fifty
drunkards, and my success has been
most gratifying.
“Let any man afflicted with the love
of drink eat three or more apples daily,
and the horrible craving will gradually
leave him. The cure will be greatly
helped along if he also smokes as little
as possible.
“I know a woman who cured a drunk
en husband without his knowledge by
keeping^hvuys a plentiful supply of
good apples on the dining table. The
man ate these apples and finally stop
ped drinking altogether.”—Philadelphia

THE BEAUTIFUL HAND.
A Decision That Stood the Test of
All Time.
There was a dispute among three
ladies as to which had the most beau
tiful hand. One sat by a stream and
dipped her hand into the water and
held it up, another plucked strawber
ries until the ends of her fingers were
pink and another gathered violets until
her hands were fragrant. An old, hag
gard woman, passing by, asked, “Who
will give me a gift, for I am poor*'” All
three denied her. bin another who sat
near, unwashed In the stream, un
stained with fruit, unadorned with
flowers, gave her a little gift aud satis
fied the poor woman, and then she ask
ed them what was the dispute, aud
they told her and lifted up before her
their beautiful hands. “Beautiful In
deed,’’ said she when she saw them,
but when they asked her which was the
most beautiful she said, “It Is not the
hand which is washed clean in the
brook, it is not the hand that is tipped
with red, it is not the hand that is gar
landed with fragrant flowers, but tbe
hand that gives to the poor is the most
beautiful.” As she said these words
her wrinkles fled, her staff was thrown
away and she stood before them an
angel from heaven, with authority to
decide the question in dispute, and that
decision has stood the test of all time.
STATE LOTTERIES.
They Were Once Very Common and
Very Popular In Europe.
Lotteries were common in ancient
Rome, and during the middle ages lot
teries were utilized by the Italian mer
chants for the disposal of their goods.
Some of the Italian states then adopted
the lottery as a means of raising reve
nue, and the institution of state lot
teries afterward became very com
mon and very popular throughout Eu
rope.
The earliest English state lottery of
which there is any record was in 15G9,
when 40,000 chances were sold at 10
shillings each, the drawing taking
place in the west door of St. Faui’s
cathedral.
The prizes consisted of articles of
plate, and the profits were employed
for the repair of certain harbors. Early
in the reign of Queen Anne private lot
teries were suppressed “as public nui
sances,” hut government lotteries, how
ever, were still maintained, and from
1709 to 1824 considerable sums were
annually raised in lotteries authorized
by acts of parliament.
The average yearly profit to the gov
ernment from 1793 to 1824 was over
£340,000. On the ground of injury to
public morals lotteries of all kinds
were abolished in England in 1820.
London Saturday Review.
“ FORGET YOURSELF.
No One Can Grow While Hla
Thoughts Are Sell Centered.
Forget yourself. You will never do
anything great until you do. Self con
sciousness is a disease with many.
No matter what they do, they can nev
er get away from themselves. They
become warped upon the subject of
self analysis, wondering how they
look, how they appear, what others
will think of them and how they can
enhance their own interests. In other
words, every thought and every effort
seems to focus upon self; nothing radi
ates from them.
No one can grow while his thoughts
are self centered. The sympathies of
the man who thinks only of himself
are soon dried up. Self consciousness
acts as a paralysis to all expansion,
strangles enlargement, kills aspiration,
cripples executive ability. The mind
which accomplishes things looks out,
not in; it is focused upon its object,
not upon itself.
The immortal acts have been uncon
sciously performed. The greatest pray
ers have been the silent longings, the
secret yearnings of the heart, not those
which have been delivered facing a
critical audience, 'ilie daily desire is
the perpetual prayer, the prayer that
is heard and answered.—Success.
What the Blind See.
“I can always tell when people are
looking at me.” said a blind man. “In
deed, nearly all blind persons can tell
when people are looking at them. I
have always about me a soft golden
glow of light. When people whom I
like come into my presence this glow
becomes paler, lovelier. When those I
dislike are about the glow is darkened
and besmirched. I can tell what kind
of characters people have by the touch
of their hands. There is individuality
in the touch. A man’s touch shows me
whether he is alert or sluggish, cold
or passionate, kind or cruel.”
Stoue In the Heart.
A Greek woman employed In the
American hospital in Caesarea, Turkey,
was stirred by a revival. She straight
way asked leave to visit a woman
whom she had injured and to whom she
had not spoken for ten years. When
she trudged through the snow three or
four miles to ask her “enemy’s” for
giveness her relatives were sure she
had gone daft, hut the next day, when
she came hack to the hospital, she said,
“We made peace, and the stone In my
heart is gone.”
