Wadley has been appointed by the directors as general manager of the Central railroad system. V. E. Mc- Bee was relieved of his duties.

The city was thronged with people who assembled to witness the unveiling of the beautiful confederate monument in honor of the heroic dead of the late war. The Ladies’ Memorial association and the Veteran’s society did the good work. Great preparations hud been made for the occasion. Colonel I. W. Avery, of At lanta, delivered the address. * ♦ * The Central railroad officials have de cided to put on a daily excursion train between Atlanta and Griffin during the encampment, which will afford the At lantians and others from the immediate points an opportunity of spending the day at the encampment returning at 9 o’clock at night.

They remain rust as reported heretofore. All the riv ers fare well. Brunswick gets a good slice and Savannah goes under the con tract sys'em. When the work provided for is completed, it will be the finest har bor south. Of course, Georgia’s liberal appropriations in the bill are due, in a great measure, to the splendid services of Colonel Lester, who is a member of the committee, and one of its hardest workers. Although Georgia fared better than any southern state, two members of the delegation voted against the bill. They were Messrs. Watson and Winn,the third party members. * * * Death of Col. h. J. Aired. Colonel L J. Aired, one of the best known citizens of Pickens county or of north Georgia, died at his home in Jag per last Monday afternoon. The imme diate cause of his death was heart disease. “Uncle Lem,” as he was familiarly known throughout the state, was seveuty right years of age. He leaves armies of friends ia everv section of the slate to mourn his death. Mr. Aired has officia ted as doorkeeper of the Georgia senate for the past fifteeeu years. His face was as familiar to the people of Georgia ns that of any mm that has ever lived within her borders. He has been itentified for the past forty years in state politics. He was a member of the senate in the '6o's and afterwards a member of the bouse in ’75 and ’76. He also served the state in the capacity of messenger of the executive department while Georgia’s capital was located at Milledgeville. He was elected as doorkeeper of the senate in 1877 and has since served continuously in that capacity. The old veteran has served the state and her good people well. His familiar face will be missed at Georgia’s capital by all who knew him. Dis memorv will live in the hearts of his friends and his name will be handed i.ow . ro j.o.arity as one of Georgia's most devoted servants. • • • The i ron Outlook. The Georgia weather service rep' rts that the week ended May 7th was u ark- cd by an almost total absence of rain in all parts of the state. In the southern portion there was a serious drought, no rain having fallen in some counties for seven weeks. The weather has been warm and sunshiny, and, where the ground ha 9 not bee cane too dry, has been a favorable one for farm work. Such was the case in the northern counties, where the farmers have succeeded in making up a good deal of time lost by the backward spring. Reports from that section are in general favorable, although light rains would be beneficial. The dry weather has dried out the bottoms so that they could be planted. At the same time no permanent injury seems to have re sulted from the lack of rain. Relatively the temperature has been the highest in the northwest, that is, the departure from ttin normal has been greater there than in other portions of the state. Wheat, oats and corn in these northern counties seem to be, as a rule, in more than average condition. Cotton is slow about coming up. The reports as to the fruit are encouraging, especially as to peaches. As we go southward the lands become constantly dryer and more parched. In most of the counties no rain lias fallen the past week, and at many points for more than a month. Oats and cotton have suffered most in the driest spots — oats are already ruined. Without rain the injury will soon be extensive. Cot ton has come up poorly and shows bad stands on account of the drought. Corn has stood the want of rain better, but is turning yellow in some places. Fruit still promises a fair crop, but in a few cases is reported to bo drooping for want of moisture. The baked condition of the soil has brought farm work to a standstill on uplands. There has been little cloudiness and a seasonable beat for the past week through - out the southern section of the state. The drought, which has now lasted near ly two months, has seriously damaged oats and cotton. Meions, potatoes, rice and other minor crops have also suffered much. More favorab c reports are re ceived as to corn, but this in some places ii turning yellow. The fruit crop, which up to the present has promised excellent ly, is sustaining considerable damage. From the long drought the ground has become so baked and bard that plowing is in many cases difficult. SENATOR BARBOUR DEAD. Ills Demise Sudden and Unexpected. And a Great Shock to His Friends. Without any upparent suffering, and after a brief illness of only ten minutes, Senator John 8. Barbour, Virginia’s ju nior representative in the United States senate, passed quietly away at his resi dence in VVashmgton city at a little after 6 o’clock Saturday morning. His death was very unexpected, and a great shock to those who kn6W him, as he had been always regarded os a man of strong and vigorous constitution, and bad been uniformly well and energetic for a person of his age. The only per sons present at his bedside when he died were bis sister-in-law, Miss Dangerfield; Col. Bhepard, of Virginia, a guest at the house, and the domestics. The doctor who had been hastily summoned wlieu the senator first aroused the household and told them of his illness, arrived just after his dissolution. The senator retired early Friday night as well as u-ual, and a few minutes after 0 o’clock Hatur day morning he sank back on bis bed without uttering a word from the time he first complained of feeling ill. His death was said by his physician to have beeu due to Leart failure. MESSAGES OK CONDOLENCE. There was a large number of sympa thizing callers at the residence of the late Senator Barbour Sunday, who came with tributes of respect and affection for the dead Virginian. Messages of condolence were received from every section of the state of Virginia. Early in the morning Vice President Morton called to tender his sympathy on the death of the honored member of the body over which ho pre sides. Justice Field of the supreme court, aud Senator Konna, of West Vir ginia, were also at the house. A majori ty of thoso persons who came, however, were Virginians, many of Senator Bar bour’s fellow-townsmen, from Alexan dria, as well as prominent men of other parts of the state and from Baltimore. The vice president received from Secre tary Halford a message expressing Pres ident Harrison’s regret at being unable to attend the funeral exercises. There was a largely-attended meeting of tho Virginia democratic association during the morning at the Metropolitan hotel to take suitable action on the death of Senator Barbour. 11. Briscoe presid ed, with U. N. Harper as secretary. Among those persons In the room were Judge Keith, of the circuit court of Vir ginia, Hon. Frank Hume, L. Q. Wash ington, Congressman E. E. Meredith, R. C. Glasscock and Captain J. A. Joues. Speeches were made by Messrs. Wash ington, Hume and others, and suitable resolutions were adopted. CONNECTICUT DEMOCRATS Select an Uniiistructed Delegation to the Chicago Convention. Tire democratic state convention of Connecticut was called to order Tuesday moruing in New Haven by Clinton B. Davis, chairman of the state central com mittee. Judge Walsh, of New Britain, was made temporary president of tire convention and made a spjech of half an hour's durntion with regard to the selec tion of delegates. County deiegatts aud delegates at large were selected without instructions. The platform was then adopted with a shout. Portions of the platform relating to national politics con tain the following: “We demand a revision of tho tariff along the lines of the democratic federal platform of 1888 aud the state platform of 1890, and iu particular rte demand that duties on raw materials shall be re moved. AVe charge the prevailing stagnation of our industries to McKinlev ism in the full effect of which we have been spared for a single season onlv l»y our unprecedented crops of last year, coupled with short crops abroad. The false logic of this dis astrous policy has already ended in broken pledges and in place of promised work there are shorter hours, and instead of better wages there re ail but universal reductions. We call upon the farmers manufacturer! and workingmen aliko to entrust the revision of the tariff on sound principles to the democratic party, in the j interest of all classes, instead of a few. I AVe declare for a stable currency of gold, | silver and paper founded upon coined ' money of the least obtained fluctuation in value, and we regard the unlimited coinage of silver dollars worth but 67 cents each, with legal tender attribute sttached, as a financial heresy, certain to re-ult in a proportionate reduction in wages, the unsettliug of contracts and widespread distress.

There were also thirty-six other contract laborers debarred from landing. Dispatches of Sunday from all of the country drained by the Mississippi river and its tributaries bring news of constant rains. The streams are all out of their banks and consequently increasing dam age to property from high water. A serious wreck occurred on the Nor folk and AVestern railroad at Moudel’s Switch, about ten miles south of Hagers town, Md., Saturday night in which Captain Hayes, of Philadelphia, conduc tor of the train, lost his life, and several others were seriously if not fatally in jured. A Philadelphia dispatch says: During a squall Sunday afternoon a rowboat on the Delaware river, containing five young men and boys, capsized and three of the occupants—Lewis Bernere, nineteen years old; Charles Anderson, colored, twenty two years old, and George Roa.t, twenty four years old—were drowned. A fire at Rochester, N. Y., early Saturday morning totally destroyed a four-story frame factory occupied by F. AV. Breed & Co., shoe manufacturers, of Linn., Maas.

AVilliam Astor was buried at New York Thursday with little display. An abstract of his will is made public by his lawyers. The William Astor estate has not, it is supposed, increased so rapidly as that of other branches of the family. It is, however, estimated at from thirty to fifty million dollars. The disposition of this great estate is that which had bocn expected. John Jacob Astor, the only son, receivis the bulk of tho prop erty, either for life or as his abso'ute property. A DEADLY CRASH. Two Trains Plunge Into Each Other. A Dozen Souls Hurled into Eternity. A special dispatch from Clives, 0., says: In the midst of a terrific storm of wind and rain, two Big Four trains crashed into each other near Cloves, 0., Sunday morning with awful effect, the horrors of which lire not yet known. The summer schedule went into effect on that day, and orders had been issued ac cordingly. Freight No. 43, a through train north, had or ders to stop at North Bend to allow No. 80, a cannon ball express, to pass. Instead of stopping, the freight engineer pulled ahead and approached Cleves, running about twenty miles an hour. Why he did not stop at North Bend will never be known, as he is dead, but it is thought in his anxiety over the storm which might have washed out bridges, he forgot the new schedule and hurried on. The list of the killed so far as known is as follows; Engineer Newberry Ed wards, of the passenger; Acting Bag gage Master Philip Gibbon, of the pas senger; Engim r William Higgs, Fire man Hiram Buc and Conductor Hcy wood, of thi t ight. Those injured are: J. C. Huber, Helton Terrell, who cannot live. Conductor John Schroder, crushed mortally between the cars. Mrs. Moreland, of North Ben I, Ind., slighly bruised. Of five to eight passengers supposed to have been in the smoker which was buried in the wrick, nothing is known. At the scene of tho wreck the road was lined with cottages. A blinding rain was falling at the time and the schedule was new. Somebody had blundered. Who that is, is the question in dispute. Members of the crew who should know most about it are numbered with the si lent majority and their testimony will never bo heard. A woman living in one of the cottages by the roadside says she saw the trains hut heard no warning whistle. Another witness says one short, wild shriek of the whistle of one trail; preceded the crash. Then the locomo tive plunged into each other like demons an 1 tumbled down together beside the track, and the passeuger and freight cars smashed upon them. Owing to the distance from the city and the prostration of telegraph wires by the accident and telephone wires by the storm, details have been very meagre. The property loss is very severe, and will be SIOO,OOO. Both engines are complete wrecks, and tho coaches of the express train are ruined. It is claimed that much valuab’" mail and express matter is lost. A dozen freight cars loaded with costly goods s.’i a total loss. ODD FELLOWS IN LUCK.

Sam I\ Joac* Bay« About Dr. K.!nff»o Koyal Uermeluer. “ I returned from Tyler, Texas, on March 12th. I find my wife has been taking Royal Germetuer two weeks, to the great rebuilding of her physical system. 6he is now almost free from the distressing headaches with which she has suffered for twenty years. Surely it has done wonders for her. I wish every poor suffering wife had aceeea to that medicine.” Later he write®: “My wife who was an invalid from nervous sick headache has been entirely cured by siJl week’s use of Dr. King’s Royal Germetuer.' HEV. SAM P. JONES. Her he 1 1th is perfect. In weeks two of my children were cured completely of nasal catarrh. It is truly a great remedy.” Rev. M. H.

I am now relieved, and I hope permanently so. Yours, James Longstreet.” What Dr. J. IS. Hawthorne Bays About Dr. King’s Royal Germetner. “I am free from catarrh.

She has been al most an Invalid from nervous headache, neu ralgia and rheumatism. In a period of thirty years she has scarcely had a day’s exemption from pain. She has been using Germetuer about two months. A more complete trans formation I have never witnessed. Every symptom of disease has disappeared. She ap pears to be twenty years younger, and is as happy and playful as a healthy child. We have persuaded many of our friends to take the medicine, and tho testimony of all of them is that it is a great remedy. J. B. Habthohne, Pastor First Baptist Church." General G. P. M. Turner, late attorney-gen eral of Memphis, Tenn., writes of his wonder ful cure of rheumatism: “ I have entirely re covered my health. When I left Hot Springs I weighed 160 pounds. I now weigh 210 pounds. My skin is as clear as a crystal, and my kid neys are in perfect ordor, also my liver and bowels. My daughter has also been cured of dyspepsia. I am in perfect health, all owing to Royal Germetuer.” Gen. Turner has been a great sufferer for ten years—from rheumatism. During that time he was treated by the most eminent physicians in Memphis and New York and spent several seasons at Hot Springs with out benefit.

Umbrellas and Their Handles. “Most of the expense in the umbrella of the present day,” said a well known manufacturer of these rain protectors iu the city, “is speut on the handles. You could scarcely giv'e one of the old fash ioned, plain, Scotch umbrellas away if you wanted to. People will pick out of an assortment of several hundred, the fanciest gold, silver or natural wood or namented handled umbrella and pay a square price for it and be satisfied, and the more elaborate and novel the handle the better is the sale. The expense upon the handle makes the material of the cov ering suffer in quality. The sticks break easily because tho handle is a separate piece glued and fitted on. The old. roomy, solid, crooked handled blue and green Scotch gingham umbrellas that reeley and Franklin carried in their day are seldom if ever seen.”—Philadelphia Press. Patience Among the East Indians. Every one knows how the Indian can endure and wait. “Why are there so many people at this railway station?” “They are waiting,” the official answers, “for to-morrow’s train.” His patience indeed goes to make that dignity which justifies the saying, “There i 9 no vulgar ity in India,” Ho does not strive nor cry, he does not assert himself by speech or drees.
