Weakness of itself is not a disease,
and yet, it is an ailment that is most
distressing. We admire strength but
we pity weakness. Weakness is the
effect of disease. It is the last weap
on of the grim monster before he lays
his victim in tiie grave. Weakness,
like pain, is a warning that the system
is out of order, that the machinery of
life is being tampered with and does
not run smoothly. Weakness means
the blood is impoverished, the diges
tion is poor, the appetite is gone, the
system is clogged and the various func
tions of the body are disored. Nature
is calling tor aid. Obey the call. As

Last Tuesday morning about day
break the people of Hampton were
startled by a report of fire. It proved
to be the dwelling It m-re of Air. lioff'e,
a gentleman who moved .from Atlanta
last year. The house was a five-room
frame building in the south end of
town, formerly owned by Daniel H.
Fonder deceased, and is yet part of
bis estate. The house was completely
destroycd with all its contents. It is
also stated that about $.500 in money
was burned with the bouse, Airs. Iloffe
and several children barely escaped
the fire without, clothing. They were
provided with clothing at once by
friends. This is the first fire that
Hampton has experienced in several
years. It is supposed that the house
caught from a lamp which bad been
left burning all night, but it is also
; probable that incindiaries did tire work.
There are several suspicious charac
ters about here, and dirty work is be
ing done. 'Two ex convicts have re

Saturday was an off day with Stark’s
baseball nine. The Normans gave
them a severe drubbing to the tune of
23 to 1 and we learn they would not
have made a run had it not been for an
error on the Norman’s side. Stark
has a good team, and they are a very
gentlemanly set of men, but it seems
that they became “rattled” and couldn’t
touch the strake curves sent in by the
NOl man’s pitcher, as he is recorded
with having struck out 17 men. It is
claimed that the Norman’s have one
of the best pitchers in the state, and that
they stand second to no amateur club

FUIX PARTICULARS
Ol t!ie Attempted Assassination of
Mr. MeVleker at Rabl*.
The Hamilton Hustler gives the full
particulars of the attempt to assassi
nate Mr. A. V . McVicker, m“re men
tion of which was made in our last is
sue. as follows :
“Hast Monday night one of the
boldest assaults was made upon Mr.
A. V. McVicker at his home at Ualib
that the people of this county have
known iu years, except that of Capt.
tsloan of McDonough.
The family were aroused very early
in the night by some one at the win
dow. Mr. McVicker was awakened
and went out around the house, but
could see no one. The moon shown
bright and it was a very unfavorable
night for burglars which make the act
so daring.
lie went back into the room to re
tire, and very soon the same noise was
heard at the window, as if some one
was trying to enter, tie again arose
and took a gun out with him but just
as he opened the door, was fired upon
by a murdurous villain from behind a
large oak tree. He returned the tire,
and again the villain discharged his
pistol, and again and again, making
four shots from behind the tree, show
ing that murder was the object of that
visitor.
Mr, McVtcker’s gun failed to fire
but oue time. But after the shooting
ceased, the bold coward stood behind
the tree not 25 feet from the door as if
re-loading his pistol.
Mr. McVicker hailed him, asked who
he was, but no auswer came. He be
moaned bis assailant for several min
utes, and finally called to his son, Wal
ter, to bring another gun. While the
gun was being brought from the room,
the fellow run and escaped.
Mr. McVicker summoned the neigh
bors and began pursuit ; they tracked
him iu a direction which gave evidence
as to who the man was, but could not
get hounds to trail the track.
Mr. Vol Barnett was sent for to
bring his hounds, but could not go, on
account of leaving his wife at home
alone. However, Mr. McVicker
thinks he knows the party. He will
“fix” for the fellow in case of another
attack.
Fortunately neither of the four shots
from the fellow's pistol took effect;
neither shot touched Mr. McVicker,
two balls were afterwards extracted
from the wall where he stood. It was
a narrow escape for him Several
times recently the thief, or murderer,
has been heard around the premises,
but no such an attack as this was ex
pected.
Mr. McVicker is positive that he
knows who his assailant is, and is go
ing to have him brought to justice at
tin early date.”
FOR RAPK.
Green Alexander Stands no Showing
to Kseape the (iallows.
Last week Sheriff Glass arrested
Greet) Alexander and placed him in
jail, charged with one of the nirst de
testable crimes known to the deca
logue.
It is that of rape on his own daugh
ler.
Green lives near Locust Grove, and
is a notorious bad character, h's own
color and acquaintances being always
in dread of him.
The daughter charges him with re
peating the crime at different times,
and the evidence is said to be of such
a straightforward and positive nature
that there is hardly a shadow of a
chance for him to escape. Indeed it is
so damaging that lawyers refuse to de
fend bun. lie will be tried at next
tt rm of court.
And it is already well settled that
his hellish misdoings are at an end,
and that his next performance will be
to stretch hemp and hang by the neck
nntil he is dead, dead, dead.

Children’s Day at Stoeklirldge.
Sunday, the 12th instant, which was
set apart by the Protestaut Methodist
church at Stockhridge, as Children's
Day, was a perfect day. It was cloud
less, but the heat was tempered by a
strong and refreshing breeze from the
uorth-east.
The exercises was opened at 10 a. m.
by prayer from Rev. VV. B. Costley ,
after which an all day singing was open
ed by Mr. Graydon of Atlanta, who
conducted it, with Miss Ida Hightower
acting as organist. At II a. m. the
Hev. W. B. Costley preached one of his
strong, practical eloquent sermons, on
the subject of “The Lost Piece of Sil
ver.”
At 12 m. recess was had for din
ner; and while your correspondent
has beeu present on many similar oc
casions, he does uot remember ever to
have seeu a more brilliant spread of
substantials and delicacies than the
hospitable people of Stockbridge and
viciutiy displayed on that occasion.
Especially was this the case at the ta
ble presided over by Mesdames McWil
liams, Clark, Costley, Shields, Bond,
Branan, and the Misses Laura and
Kmma Ilambrick, whose hospitality
your scribe enjoyed.
After the utmost powers of the visi
tors were exhausted in a brilliant at
tack on the viands, there was an ample
sufficiency left to have fed two more
crowds of the same size, and equally
hungry.
The exercises were resumed at 1 p.
in. by prayer from Rev. Dean of Clay
ton, which was followed by a respon
sive service from the Sunday school
class of the M. P. church. After this
there was:
Recitation by Miss Mollie Belle
Brauan.
Dialogue by the Misses Harrell, age
six, four and two.
Dialogue by .foe B. Shields, Jacob
Brauan and Miss Carrie Costley.
Recitation by Claude Crabbe.
Recitation by Myrtie Harrell.
Dialogue by Homer and Etta liar
roll.
Dialogue by Misses Mollie Belle
Branan and Annie Costley.
Recitation by Miss Minnie Clarke.
Recitation by Cairie Costley.
Recitation by Miss Nellie Shields.
Recitation by Miss Alma Lett.
Dialogue by Master Bob Lee and
Miss Nellie Shields.
Becitation by Miss Jessie C. Branan.
Where all acquitted themselvis so
well it would be invidious to draw any
distinction, but it was conceded that
the feature of the exercises was the
dialogue by the three little Misses
Harrell, and the recitation of Miss Je -
sie Branan.
After these exercLes singing was
again resumed, led by Mr. Chambers
of Inman Fayette co., and Miss Jessie
Branan organist; and were continued
until 4 j). in. at which time the very
large congregation dispersed to their
respective homes, carrying with them
the remembrance of one of the most
enjoyable occasions of a lifetime.
Such, at least was the verdict of your
scribe. S. 11. J.

A Slid Death.
It is with a sad heart that we have
to give up :• dear friend, on tins earth,
but it is a great pleasure to think of
meetin, again in Heaven. Our sweet
friend, Miss Arvie Dawson, breathed
her last on May 25th. She had suffer
ed a long time, and her death was not
unexpected to hei relatives; still, it
seet ted more than they could bear to
part with Arvie. She was just bloom
ing into womanhood, and it seemed
hard to give up a dear friend that I
had always associated with ; still it is a
pleasure of meet'ug agaiu. Arvie said
she preferred living if she could, and if
not, she was willing to die. She had
ptofessed a hope in her Savior, but had
never joined any church. Sho was
loved by all who kuew her. for she was
a kind hearted girl, and she leaves a
large number of friends to mourn her
loss. We feel that our loss is her eter
nal gain. Her body was buried at
ludiati ('reek cemetery. A large num
ber of affectionate friends attending her
funeral, which was conducted by Rev.
James Kimbell. We extend our heart
felt sympathy to the bereaved family,
for we feel that they have lost a devot
ed daughter and sister. Now let us all
try to meet Arvie where there is no
more parting. A devoted friend.
