The cold snap came very near killing
the co'ton. 1 dou’t want the People's

j till Christmas if they cause such bliz
| zards to follow them.
Wheat will soon be ready to har
vest—only tolerably good.
The dry weather is cutting off the
oat crop considerably. Corn looking
very well
Evans stock in this community is
worth 100 cents in the dollar. There
was ouly one Atkinson man around
here, and the cold snap converted him.
Gen. Evans is our choice, not simply
because he was a general in the army,
but we thiuk he is made of the right
kind of metal to make Georgia one of
her best Governors. Beiug a general
j does not disqualify him in our opinion.
Give us Evans for Governor and Col.
E. J. Reagan for Representative, and
old Henry county will be top side up.
Everybody around Babb is for Reagan
first, last and all the time—except the
People’s Party, and they acknowledge
he is the best Representative we can
get. Three cheers for Evans and
Reagan. A. V. M.
Last week’s letter.
Democratic Harmony.
The Brunswick Times appeals for
harmony in the Democratic party. It
says that the Populist party goes be
fore the voters of Georgia on a better
footing than it has ever before been
placed. It finds a stronger division of
sentiment in national affairs, more bold
ly asserted, than ever before. The
Populistic candidates are brainy, ag
gressive fellows, and they are backed
by a stronger following than is general
ly supposed.
Iu the face of these facts the Demo
cratic party is at war with itself. Par
tisan rancor is uubridled, and reckless
words are too often carelessly said. It
is time that the Democratic party was
getting its household iu order. The
papers and partisans, of either candi
date for Governor, who make charges
of curruptiou and fraud and impurity
aga'.ust Ciudidates who are to staud be
fore the Democratic State Convention,
are doing things that they know to be
false, and for which they cannot make
any reasonable apology when the cam
paigu is properly opened. Georgia
needs Democratic harmony, and now is
a good time to advocate and encourtge
it.
The Gubernatorial Race.
Don’t that man A tkiuson run for
governor though ? He leads off and
leaves General Evans by the wayside.
If Atkinson can lead the race with
no support at all aud the state solid for
Evans (as the Atlauta papers say)
what would he do if he had anything
like a respectable following ?
The Constitution aud Journal are
doinng Gen. Evans more harm than
good. They have claimed Georgia
solid and about half the adjoining states
for General Evans, but it seems they
will uot be able to deliver their goods, j
YVe think it about time the Atkimon j
papers should begin to lay claim to a
few counties, at least.—Gordon CM

i An Honorable Test in Which Colonel
Atkinson Wins.
A correspondent of the Macon Tel
[ egraph writes his paper as follows :
“While in Milledgeville yesterday
hunting filthy lucre for the great and
| good Telegraph, Col. Scott told me a
jgo >d story ou Mr. and Mrs. F. B.
Mapp. There is not a more charming
household in the State # than that of the
Mapps. Mr. aud Mrs. Mapp are both
| enthusiastic for Gen. Evans. Boarding
with them are several lady teachers of
the Girls Industrial school, who are
for Atkinson. Both claim (he honors
of (heir respective candidate. Every
day they discussed the campaign.
They were too refined and elegaut to
bet on the issue of the contest as the
vulgar do, so Mrs. Mapp, practical in
the affairs of life, bethought herself of
a very ingenious method of testing the
merits and abilities of the candidates.
She had a couple of hens going “set
tiug” at the same time. One was older
aud more matronly, and to her was
given the name of Gun. Evan, the oth
l er younger and more ambitious, was
named Col. Atkinson. The general
aud the Colonel were set the same day,
same hour, same number of eggs. Mrs.
Mapp, being a woman and cot a poli
tician, old or new, took no advantage.
The candidates were put on their mer
its. Iu her heart Mrs. Mapp wished
better luck to the geueral, but she did
not put vaseline ou Col. Atkinson, as
an Atlanta orator would have done, so
as to prevent her eggs from batching,
but she gave both a fair trial and even
chance, trusting to the older ben, her
favorite, to act well her part and decide
the contest ou the Evans side. The
general had the prayers and sympathy
of Mrs. Mapp. Further than that she
did not go. The agreement was that
the household would abide the decision
of the hens.
Gen. Evans sat for two weeks. A
provoking rooster, the hero of the barn
yard, always haviug a fancy for Gen
Evans, undertook to interfere and offer
outside advice as to how to get away
with little Col. Atk'nsou over in the
corner. Seduced by bis entreaties,
Gen Evans began to tire of her own
duties, which required great singleness
of purpose, and allowed herself to leave
her nest aud take counsel and advice
from the interfering chanticleer. Mrs.
Mapp uoticed with alarm the bad
“breaks” of the geueral, aud on several
occasions ran the pestiferous rooster
from the premises. But the general
just flatly quit her nest aud took up
with the rooster.
The plucky little colouel, fighting
htr battle herself aud knowing the
work in baud, listened not to the blan
dishmeat of a third party. She was
bent ou accomplishing something for
herself and for her mistress. The re
sult was the colonel came off her nest
at the end of three weeks with a beau
tiful brood of fifteen biddies. The
laugh was on Mrs. Mapp. The teach
ers guyed her, and the girls of the In
dustrial School, finding out what had
transpired came to visit Col. Atkinson
and her brood. The very rapture and
admiration of the girls teased Mrs.
Mapp, aud more than once she was |
heard lo mutter : “What did the gen
eral pay any attention to the seduction
of that abominable rooster for ?”
Kept His Word.
Attired iu a morning robe of delicate
lace, she heeded not the bitter tears
that chased each other along the bridge I
of her nose and splashed upon the fried j
eggs that lay with the sunny side up i
before her.
Regretfully her glance rested upon
her husband, who sat in his dressing
gown aud nervously toyed with his
spoon.
“No, Annabel,” he was saying, “I
do not care for any of the baking pow
der biscuits you builded with your own
hands.”
A short gasp stirred her bosom.
“Plantagenet,” she faltered, “did
you not say before we were married
A sob temporarily choked her utter
■ aLce.
“ — th — that you would die for me ?”
He started and turned pale.
“Did I say that ?” he eagerly de
i maDded.
‘ You did, Plantagenet!”
“Annabel,” be said in a hollow voice,
i“lam a man of my word. Can I trou
ble you to pass those bakiug powder
biscuits? Thank you!” And with
out another woid be courted death.
What about Judge Hines' law libra
ry ? Will the populists permit him to
! keep it, or must it go up in smoke as an
| offering to the party ?—Savannah
News.
A telegrapher’s Kxfsrlence,
An extraordinary incident occurred
a few nights since in the course of tel -
j egraphic business between Pittsburg
and a little out of-the way office, which
partakes of the occult and goes a long
way to support the claim that dreams
are some times much more than the
uncontrolled vagaries of a troubled
sleep. Iu this case the facts are un
questionable, and may be vouched for
by two operators who have had no
communication since the strange event
occurred.
There was filed iu the Pittsburg gen
eral office of the Western Uuion Tele
graph Co. shortly before midnight be
tween Thursday and Fiiday a message
| which read :
“William Murray, El wood Juuctiwu,
Pa: Your mother died tonight. Come
home.”
The message was markedf“rush.” It
was shot upstairs in the pneumatic tube
aud laid on the desk of one the best
operators. This operator did not know
the the name of the operator at El wood
Junction. This is a small station ou
the Pittsburg & Lake Erie railroad,
where there is rarely any commercial
business. At night there is scarcely
any railroad business, as only an occa
sional freight passes the place, aud that
is slow business.
The Pittsburg operator begun call
ing Elwood Junction, sounding the two
letters which indicate that [telegraphic
station. There was no response, aud
the call was continued for j some time.
Then, as s' ill no answer catne, another
piece of work was taken up and dis
patched. The calling of Elwood Junc
tion was resumed. The Pittsburg op
erator was veiy busy and he began to
be annoyed. After several minutes of
sounding the answer came.
“What’s the matter, old !jruan ?” iu- |
quired the Pittsburg sender over the
line.
The operator at Elwood .function re
plied : “1 fell asleep in my chair.”
“Don’t do it,” answered Pittsburg,
“it’s a bad habit.”
“I wish I had not,” responded El
wood, “for I had bad dreams.”
“Don't mind dreams,” Lid Pitts- '
burg, “there’s nothing in them. I have
a message for somebody out your way.”
The message for William Murray
was then ticked over the wire. There
wap. a brief pause when the telegram
was ended. Then tbeie came back
these words from the night operator at
Elwood Junction :
“My God ! Trouble never ceases ! It
is my mother !”
The operator at the Junction was
William Murray, aud he had received
the message announcing the death of
his own mother within an hour of the
time when he had dreamed of her
death.
The Pittsburg operator was affected
by the answer and he wired a message
of sympathy, asking pardon for his jest
ing sentences. The iucident was closed,
and the wires carried other messages of
joy and sorrow through the night.
Frightened to Death.
There are several well authenticated
cases where fright was the cause of ;
death. An English surgeon tells of a
drummer iu India across whose legs a
harmless liz.ard crawled while he was
half asleep. He was sure that a cobra
had bitten uerves and he died.
Frederick I. of Prussia was killed by
fear. His wife was insane, aud one 1
day she escaped from her keeper, and,
dabbling her clothes with blood, rushed
upon her husband while he was dozing
in his chair. King Frederick iiuag- j
ined her to be the white lady, whose i
ghost was believed to invariably ap !
pear whenever the death of a member !
of the royal family was to occur and he
was thrown into a fever and died in six j
weeks.
But perhaps the most remarkable
death from fear was that of the Dutch 1
painter Pentman, who lived in the
seventeenth century. One day he went
into a room full of anatomical 6uhjects
to sketch some skulls and hones for a
picture he intended to paint. The
weather was very sultry, and while
sketching be fell asleep. He was
aroused by bones dancing around him.
and the skeletons suspended from the
ceiling clashed together. Iu a fit of
horror he threw himself out of the
window. Though he sustained no se
rious injury, and was iuformed that a
slight earthquake had caused the coin
motion among the ghostly surroundings,
he died of nervous tremor —The Mil
lion.
It may happen to a good man that
his worst enemy is his best friend, put
l ting him on his guard against his faults
1 and frailties.
Some Stories of Zeb Vance.
Hie following good stories were of
ten related by the late Senator Vance,
of North Caroliua :
“Another story often to'd by Sena
tor Vance referred to oue of bis own
experiences when he was making a
: personal canvass for votes in a back
woods setlemeut where he was entirely
unacquainted. Au announcement that
he would speak at a crossroads settle
ment, consisting of a grocery store and
one bouse brought out about sixty men
of voting age, whom he found waiting
for him when be rode up. He dis
mounted, hitched his horse aud began
to crack jokes in the regular backwoods
!style.
lie flattered himself that he was
I making a rather favorable impression,
hut noticed that one old man, with
brass-bowed spectacles and an air of
deep thought, sat upon au empty box
and drew marks in the sand with a
stick, as if Z tb were not worthy of any
particular attention. As Vance ex
pressed it, lie thought this old man was
the bell-wether of the flock, and be ac
cordingly prepared to capture him.
Zeb sidled up to the old man, who
leaned forward on bis stick and asked
solemnly :
“‘This is Mr. Vance, I believe?’
“ ‘Yes, sir.’ refilled Vance.
“ ‘And you’ve come here to see my
boys about voting ?’
“ ’Yes, sir.’
“ ‘Well, afore you go on I want to
ax you a question or two. What
church do you belong to?’
“Vance said that the question was a
poser, as be didn’t really belong to any
church. Hut it was very impoitant for
him to win the votes, so be decided to I
make a bluff, as lie knew that factional
feeling ran 1 igh in the region. lie
squared himself and Baid slowly:
“Well, my friend, it's a fair question,
and I’ll tell you all about it. You see
my grandfather came from Scotland, i
and of course be was a Presbyterian.' 1
“fie paused to cote the effect, but
the old man made no sigh. ‘Hut my
grandmother came from England, and
I there everybody belongs to the Episco
pal church.’ lie stopped again, but the
old man kept his eyes on the ground.
“ ‘My father was born in this coun
try and grew up as a Methodist.’ Still
there was no sign of approval from the
old man.
“Vauce began to feel uncomfortable,
but made one last effort. ‘Hut my
mother was a Baptist, aud it’s my opin
ion that a man has gut to go under wa
ter to get to heaven.’
“The old man got up aud took Zeb’s
hand. ‘You're all right,’ be said, and
turning to the crowd, went on : ‘Hoys,
he’ll do. 1 thought he looked like a
Baptist.’ Then a flask of mountain
dew was passed around and Zeb re
ceived the unanimous vote of the
neighberb >od when election time came
around.
“Vance once stumped the State lu
joint debate with .Judge Settle, the Re
publican candidate for the Governor
ship. All the white Democrrts turned
out to bear Vance, and the colored Re
publicans came to bear Settle. At the
conclusion of the speaking oue day
Vauce was told that a number of young
women bad expressed a desire to kiss 5
the Democratic candidate.
“He stepped down from the platform
and kissed a dozen or so of the pretty
young women, when he stopped long
enough to turn around to bis competi
tor and shout: “I’m kissing my girls,
Settle : now you kiss yours !'
He told me once that when be mar j
ried the second time lie said to his wife
ou their wedding day : ‘Now, in the
beginning, while I’m submissive, I want
to give you one piece of advice. I’m a ;
stubborn fellow, and you may antici
pate trouble. Take my advice and we
will get along mighty well. It is this :
Make me do as I darned please.’ ’’

Tlie Recent t'olil Snap.
People who do not remember such a
spell of cold weather as the recent snap j
should refresh their memories. The
Mobile Register sat s :
“ The first mention we liavo of the
May frosts in this locality is in 1810.
January, February and March of that
year were mild, and vegetation began
early, hut April and May were very
cold. The snap culminated June Bth
in a killing frost as far south us mid
dle Alabama. North of that line ey
erytliing green was killed. It was al
together rather a remarkable year for
cold, for on July sth in the middle
states ice was reported as thick as win
dow glass. There was frost every
mouth in the year as far south as lati
tude 34 degrees.
In 1827 there was, on May 27th,
a killing frost throughout the cotton
states. The crop was cut short more
I than one fifth. There was a killing;
frost May 22, 1838, the crop that year
being cut short fully one-third. There
was frost on May 28th and 29th of
that year also. May 22, 23 and 24,!
1883, frost occurred in central Ala
bama and Mississippi, the mercury fall
ing to 24 52 degrees. There was frosts
all over the northern states, May 29th
aud 30, 1889, and very cold weather
south. A frost and freeze prevailed .
over a large portion of the wheat belt ,
iu 1891, and tires were comfortable in
Mobile. May 22, 1892, there was a
cold snap here lasting four days, the
minimum thermometer being 50 de
grees. Last year, at about this date,
■ here was a driving snowstorm in
Michigan aud very nearly a frost iu the
south.
