McDonough. Ga., Sei-t. IC, 1802.
A Recent Incident.
He looked like a third party man,
and seemed as if he might have lived
near some swamp all his life. His
trousers also looked like they had been
pulled too previous, and he wore a 25
cent straw hat that had plenty of venti
lation in the crown. He ran hurriedly
up the stair way, and when he reached
the office door, he inquired in a steer-
driving voice.
“Is the eddytur in ?”
Upon being given an aflimattvc re
ply he began :
“Look here, youug men, I’m a third
party man, and I hain't got no use for
enybody who don’t favor my party, an’
the paper what's always er runnin’
down my principles don’t git eny of
my money. You old democrats is
nothin’ but a set or rascals and them
old republicans a set of thieves.”
He said he did not mean any reflec
tion upon the Journal man when he
said the democrats were rascals, pro
vided we’d see the error of our way
and change, otherwise he did. We
told him his statement was a base
calumny, worthy of the days of Nero,
that we expected to remain a democrat,
and that such idiots as he would please
make their visits of short duration.

When he grabbed us by the neck
and jammed our head against tho hand
press, then lifting us by our boot straps
aud butting us against the ceiling, fi
nally wiping up the floor with us, it all
occurred too sudden to meet any resist
ance from us, not even a yell. Three
days later, at this writing, we are bad
ly done-up, but still in the ring.
We wish, however, to beg his par
don ; when he comes again, we shall
not disagree with him in any manner,
much less doubt his veracity, or reflect
disparagingly upon his intelligence.—

The Costliest President.
The Harrison administration is the
costliest the country has ever had. It
has cost the people of the country $7 a
head, or $35 a family, annually, as
against au average annual cost of only
SG. 12 for Cleveland and 1G.43 for the
Garfield-Auther administration. Even
when comparer! with the Garfield-Ar
thur administration, which was by no
means as economical as it might have
been the cost of Harrison appears in its
true light as unprecedented.

The most wonderful man
in Georgia, or the south, to
day, is lion. L. F. Living
ston. lie has a longer head
than Joe Brown ; the brains
of Bob Toombs ; the lan
guage of Ben Ilill, and the
energy and courage of Jack
son. No country produces
more than one such man in a
century. Hale’s Weekly,

The great prize fight be
tween John L. Sullivan, of
Boston, champion of the
world, and Jim Corbett of
California, came off at the
Olympic club house, in New
Orleans, on Wednesday night.
It resulted in a victory for
Corbett on the 21st round.
Sullivan was badly punished,
but Corbett did not receive
a scratch. Corbett is now
the champion of the world,
and is entitled to wear the
belt until he is beaten.
Congressman “Cyclone”
Davis, of Texas, is canvassing
Georgia in the interests of
the People’s party. It has

A special to the Atlanta
Constitution from Forsyth,
Ga., dated Sept. 12th, says:
During the past week the
Primitive Baptiste have been
carrying on a meeting Ephe
sus a country church, about
nine miles from town. Yes
terday the meeting took quite
a sensational turn. The
members of this church are,
as every knows, opposed to
secret organizations. Yes
terday the preachers jumped
on the people's party with
both feet, claiming that it was
a branch of the alliance, and
that the alliance, was a se
cret organization, and that no
member of their church had
a right to join the party and
those who did would iiot be
entitled to church fellowship.
These utterances created a
big sensation, and there may
be trouble in the church.

Who could have thought
for one moment that Geor
gia's sons possessed so much
latent power as has been
brought into requsition du
ring the campaign now going
on. The wisdom of Stephens,
the statesmanship of Hill, the
uncontrolable zeal of Tombs
and the fervid eloquence of
Grady is again plainly dis
cernable in the Empire State.
Every Georgian’s heart should
thrill with pardonable pride
when his mind reverts to the
young men of the present
day.
Wisdom From tlie Rum’s Horn.
The preaching that has Christ in it
always sends somebody away from the
church with a determination to do bet
tef.
God’s way in holy warfare is for us
to furnish the army and he the leader
ship. No force that God leads is ever
defeated.
If people would make the sacrifices
for Christ that they will do for money
the devil would have been on crutches
long ago.
ft is always uubelief in Christ that
nails him to tho ernss. He was not
crucified as the Messiah of Israel, bnt
as an impostor.
The man who knows that God with
him is always a strong man, no matter
whether he talks very loud in church or
not.
It sometimes looks as though the
devil had as tight a grip on the man
who loves money as he has on the one
who loves whisky.
What a difference there is between
tbe kind of headache people have on
rainy Sundays and the kind they have
when the circus is in town.
It wont do to make treaties of peace
with some of our sins and aks God to
deliver us from the rest. We must be
williug to have them all slain.
If all Christians were as full of zeal
at home as they are at camp-meeting,
there wouldn’t be half so many saloons
with doors wide open on Sunday,
Singing “Nearer, my God to Thee,”
will never carry us a single inch toward
heaven, unless we are willing to step
in that direction with our own feet.
A blessing is promised t > tho hand
that gives a cup of water in Christ’s
name, but a curso is sure to smite the
one that holds out the bottle to a neigh

Some of the greatest treasures in
heaven will be blunders God’s children
have made when trying their best to
do something to show their love. The
soiled and puckered handkerchief a lit
tie girl is trying to hem because she
loves her mother, has a value away be
yond anything a seamstress can do.

A lone bandit held up a Pacific ex
pres-; messenger on a Wichita and Lit
tie lioek. ex press, on the M i.soiin l’a
cifiic last night and after ransacking
the-safe made gond his escape. The
train left the uion depot at 3 o'clock
and when it reached Grand avenue sta
tian a masked mau entered the coinlii
natiim baggage and express car, which
was in charge of Mr. McLaughlin, a
combination baggageman and express
messenger. The bandit intimidated
the messenger by pointing two revol
vers and finally succeeded in binding
and gaging him. He then extracted
the key of the express company's safe
from the messenger’s poclet and open
ing the safe, secured several thousand
dollars. When the train reached Shef
field, a suburb out of the city, the rob
ber disembarked and made off with his
booty. Tbe tiain proceeded several
stations down the road before the rob
bery was discovered. The conductor
found McLaughlin b mud and gaged,
who after being rehased told the btory
of the robbery as given above and tel
egraphed to headquarters in this city.
Officers started on the trail of the rob

Sorry for the Angels.
Little Madge is the youngest mem
ber of a very religious family who live
in a sma'l town not very far from New
Y'ork. She had a dog named Snap,
who was her most cherished fried.
Snap, however, had a weakness for
Madge’s mother’s chickens and used to
catch them and pull every feather from
their bodies.
During Madge’s absence from home
one day her mother gave Snap away
to a coontryman, Madge thought
Snap was dead and wept bitterly.
The next day she sobded heavily
and said: “Motnmer, Pse so sorry for
dent poor angels, cause I know Snap’ll
pull ebry feddes out o’ deir wings ”
