Georgia Coast Sunset
Surpass Those Os Rivera
Superintendent Otis Ashmore!
of the Savannah public schools, j
who during a recent sojourn along !
the Georgia coast, has returned
home so enthusiastic over the
trip that he will in all probably
prepare a paper on what he saw
to be read before the Georgia
Historical Society during one of
the winter meetings.
Mr. Ashmore will tell of golden
sunsets, more beautiful than
similiar phenomena of the Italian
Rivera: of a thousand miles of as
ideal cruising waters as may be
found in the world: of an atmos
phere of romance that almost
take* one back to the days when
that valiant gentleman who
founded the colony of Georgia
A' rested from the Spanish in
vaders of Georgia and Florida
shores the chance to retard the
j, •«•*.-> of civilization that was
started under Oglethorpe’s
regime.
Mr. Ashmore saw the ruins of
one- famous forts, over the
breastworks of which Ogle
thorpe's men fought against the
Spaniard, and scenes which
bear an important place in the
settlement of this section of a
great country, but‘which have,
due to their remoteness, been
sadly neglected in the chronicles
of the early history of the coun
try.
In fact while several trips have
been made over the beautiful and
historic ground between Savan
nah and Fernandina, yet Mr.
Ashmore states he becomes more
enthusiastic through repetition,
lie and his friends who made the
trip steamed leisurely through
the many waterways that in their
entirety will represent a distance
of a thousand miles of safe cruis
ing. Practically every mile of
the route contains its individual
attractions, and in Mr. Ashmore’s
opinion should be exploited to a
greater extent that more people
may have the advantage of see
ing them. —Savannah News.

Lightning Finds Ring.
Livingston. N. J., Aug. 9. —
Walking in the woods near here
two young farmers came upon an
old tree which has been split in
half by lightning two nights age.
While examining the tree the
men were surprised to see some
thing glistening in the wood.
With some difficulty they suc
ceeded in digging out a gold band
wedding ring. The circle bore
the inscription, “To Julia Hen
derson. from John, May 17.
1878.”
His Job Well Earned.
Afropos of the recent appoint
ment of a number of Ohio men
to federal offices, James A. Lit
jtleton of Columbus, a lawyer,
: told a story about Buckeye men
who have sought office, says the
Washington Post.
“Some years ago.” said Mr.
Littleton, “when Joseph B. For
aker was Governor of Ohio, he
I was importuned by a faithful fol
! lower to appoint him to a state
position. The fellow was so in
sistent that finally Gov. Foraker
! hunted up a position and signed
the commission. Some time went
by, and one day the Governor
saw his appointee lounging lazily
in the lobby of one of the leading
hotels of Columbus. Naturally,
his curiosity was aroused.
“ T thought you were work
ing,’ said the Governor.
‘ ‘So I am, ’ was the reply.
“ ‘Well, you seem to behaving
a pretty easy time of it. 1 gave
j you the appointment you have in
order that you might go to work.”
” ‘Never mind, Governor,’
came the reply, ‘I had to work so
hard to get this job that I don’t
think I should he called upon to
do anything after I have got
it.’ ”
P'arming That Pays.
A Laurens county farmer gin
ned 800 bales of cotton from 800
acres of land last year. On por
tions of his farm the yield per
! acre was considerably more than
a halo per acre. It is doubtful if
there is another farm of the same
size in the cotton belt which can
show the same record. Sanders

Woman Has Rare Coin.
Mrs. S. W. Bouquin, of Barn
ey, has a 25-centgold piece which
has been in her possession nearly
70 years, and although she has
been offered goodly amounts for
the piece of money, she refuses
to give* it up. Mrs. Byuquin is
over 80 years of age and when
she was but a small girl went to
Now York with her father to
visit some relatives.
While she was there a business
man who rather liked the little
girl gave her the 25-cent piece
and she has never since allowed
it to get out of her possession.
The goldpioce is said to be the
only one of its denomination in
ithis part of the country.
The Oldtime Darkey.
The Times had a visit today
from an old darkey by the name
of Mlijah Parker, a resident of
(he Ousley district in this county,
who says that he was a plow-boy
in 1812. He says he could work
up to two years ago, is cutting
new teeth, and has never worn
spectacles, though his sight is
getting dim now. He is well pre
served in appearance for one of
so great an age, his hair and
heard being not entirely grey.
We suppose it would be hard to
find another man in the state
who was plowing a hundred
years ago. Valdosta Times.

The last time Urey Woodson
was in Atlanta, Ga., he went
through a factory and got so
much oil and grease on his trous
ers that he had to send them to
an old colored man to be cleaned,
says the Popular Magazine. The
following morning the negro ap
peared before Woodson with this
lament:
” ‘Deed. Mr. Woodson, I don’t
think 1 gwine be able to clean
dose here pants. 1 done tried
I gasoline and pearline and naph
! thy, and don’t any of them seem
j to do no good. ”
"Have you tried ammonia?”
asked Woodson.
“No. sah,“ said the old darkey,
“1 ain’t tried ’em on me yet. but
1 reckon the.v’t tit me all right.”
