At something after 9 o’clock Mr. (ieo A. Turpin, who lives on the out-skirts of Americus, discovered Ins barn on lire, and saw at once that it was too late to save the structure. When first seen the building, which was full of combustible matter, was al most sheeted in flame and burned like tinder. Mr. Turpin recollected that a small negro named Ren Aaron slept in the barn, and hastened to the shuck room. The roof was one seething mass of flame and it was only by almost super human efforts that the boy was rescued. When he was landed outside the burn* ing roof caved in and Ids rescue was not a minute too soon. The barn was full of fodder, corn and hay, which was all lost. A halo of cotton was consumed and the carriage house shared the same fate. It was next thing to a miracle that the home of Mr. Turpin did not ignite, since it is located only a short way from the barn. Lippincott’s 1 QQO Magazine. * TwentY-Fifth Annual Prospectui.

Ten Dollars For a Cent. Some time ago, a gentleman bet that, that if lie stood at the corner of Broad way and Fourteenth streets, New York, and offered gold eagles to the passers-by for a cent each, lie would find no pur chasers. The experiment was tried, and it turned out just as he said. No one would believe that the coins were genu ine. It seemed too good to be true. An equally remarkable offer is that made by the proprietors of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, the sovereign cure for consumption. Think of it! Resto ration to life and health for a mere song. There is sot a case of lung-scrofula—in other words, consumption—that will not yeild to it, if it is taken in time. I r is the greatest blood-purifyer ever known, and is guaranteed to benefit or cure in all diseases of tho throat and lungs, or money refunded Only extraordinary curitive properties could warrant or sus tain its makers in selling it thus, on trial! A Tobacco Expert. At last it seems that the Georgia farmers have taken hold of the cotton acreage question In a practical way. The movement is now to substitute another craze in part—tobacco. Commissioner Nesbitt wrote an arti clo on tobacco which was incorporated in the October report of his department. This lias attracted wide-spread atteu tion. Applications for it come not only from all parts of Georgia, but from nearly every state in the Union, and from the Southern states ia particular. The outlook is now that a very con siderable tobacco crop will be raised in Georgia next year. So decided is this movement that the commissioner has decided to employ a tobacco expert, whose business it will he to go from place to place and furnish information to those about to engage in the culture on the large scale. There are now thirty-eight tabacco clubs or growers’ asssociations in Geor gia, and now ones are being formed con stantly. The Old Man Would Have Ills Joke.
