\V. B. Darsey Answers the Call of the
Death Bell.
This noble young man, the oldest |
-on of Mr. John T. Darsey, died ai
the home of Ins devoted parents near
Hampton, in Heury county, on Tues I
t :v evening, '.he 20-1 of dune, 18%.
To those who knew this young mau

Darsey. 11 is traits of ohaaoter need
no commendation, lie bad the repu
tatiou of being a treble, generour heart
e l man ever exhibiting the noble char- i
acteristics of a gentleman. For eight
years past he had been in the employ
and service of the old Ceutral Railway
Company. During this lime Mr. 1).
made his home down at Macon, at or
near the Junction. Ii was at this place j
he was taken seriously 7 iii. Thinking
perhaps a change of climate and sur
roundings would conduce to his im
provement, he came up to his father’s,
but, the disease was so deeply fastened
upon him lie continued to grow worse.
The best skill of his attending physi
ciau was baffled, and it soon became
apparent that he was sinking below all j
hope of recovery; and in the afternoon !
on last Tuesday, in the midst of his
best friends, Ben Darsey bid them all
farewell to await their grand meeting
on .the other shore. The grief smitteu
companion and ihe two loving little
daughters are bowed under a cloud of
sadness and sorrow to night Let me j
say to vou bereft and grief smitten ones, j
bow down in humble submission to the
rod whose strokes thy Father’s will J
raa\ appoint. It is not yours yet to
know why all this bitterness is mingled
with your cup. t
Though in the prime of his man
hood encumbered with the care of his
family, still he had not neglected to be
iu readiness, to obey the summons that
called him across the dark sea. Let
this assurance comfort your hearts,
dear kindred, and be ye also ready for
the crossing when the death bell is rung
in your hearing.
'The vast crowd that we re at the
burial bear w itness that his friends were
numerous. In his newly made grave,
lie peacefully sleeps to night. Sleep
■hi now, Ben, ’till the trumpet’s blast
shall wake thee to newness of life.

I always did like common ordinary

misery to see a fool overdo the tiling
and have been thinking of asking tin

editors of the Atlanta Commercial and
the Macon Evening Newsineithcr one
of them l-as sense enough to know peas
wheu the hag is open, I don't blame
them but their parents, for raising such
fools. They seem to ba very much
exercised over the trial af tlmir oi l
Erieud Delk aud son and are trying to
squall their gizzards out an order to
make the people believe Judge Beck
did not give them a fair trial. If his
satanic majesty had been .;>tit on trial
and convicted these suite papers would
have taken his part ami said thut he
was not fairly treated. ’They are cer
tajnly honeys of the first vfater.
Attention is called to the first trial
and conviction on record. Wheu Eve
transgressed the laws of Gud by par
taking of the apple, and gave to Adam
and he did eat, the Lord t(|uk their ow n
statements and found thelt guilty and
passed sentence on them. Jlf this had
been the Delk gang they *would have
asked for a continuance &d had the
devil supoenaed to prole an alibi.
The next case on record jj,vas that of
Cain who was charged the mur
der of his brother. Cam was like the
Delka. He was a first class liar. The
first answer he made to the Judge was
a lie of the whole cloth. -But God d d
not waut any more witnuskes. He just
sentenced Cain on the sp<it. Now, if
the Commercial and the News had
been in existence at that *?ie and could
have gotten the devil's statement as to
the trial and conviction, they would
have been howling until this day if pox
sihle. There is some similarity in the
life of Cain and old Taylor Delk
Cain waß the better man of the two
He was never charged with anything
but murder while Delk is accused ol
theft, robbery and murder. After re
ceiving his sentence Caiu went into a
different country aud maryied a Miss
Noel, who was a dauglneF of old man
Noel by bis last wife. She was a little
coquettish and fast and it was rumored
about !)2 degrees bi low par. But be
it said to their credit, they raised up a
respectable family and the names of
jheir sous have been handed down to
posterity without a blot or a blemish on
their character.
Now, what about the Commercial

tween Flint river and feme creek and
there fouud a shemale by the name o!
Mariali Davis, who was a jimswingor
in her line of business. She, with two
others of like stripe and sex were doing
a partnership business at the same
stand. In order to get rid of this trio,
the house in which they stayed was
burned down. Soon after Taylor took
Mariab as a wife and they raised up
sous for the chaingang and gollows, as
sorry a set of dogs as ever lived. Now

Four \ ears (Jetting Wooil.
Robert Winn, an old and eccentric
character, died at his homo ou Harris
creek, this county, yesterday. “Uncle
Bob’” as he was familiarly caPe.l, liv
ed to bury two wives, and, not wishing
to slight either, on his dying bed he
asked that his remains be buried by the
side of his faithful dog that had but a
few years ago proceeded him. The
request was granted.
The death of "Uncle Bi>b” recalls an
incident in his life that is decidedly out
of an ordinary. During the opening
scenes uf the late war “Fncle Bob'’
was anxious to join the Confederate
army. His wife was opposed to his do
ing so, and used every argument and
effort within her power to prevent it.
One cold winter morning, after “Uncle
Bob’’ had abandoned the idea, as Mrs.
Winn supposed, of joining the army,
she asked “Uncle Bob” to go to the
wood yard and gather some wood with
which to rekindle the lire. ‘ Uncle
Hob” started, but instead of “gathering
wood” he walked to Mississippi and
joined the army, aud for four long years
fought for the cause of the Confedera
cy. At the close of the war he re
tuined to the home he had suddenly
deserted. Entering by way of the
wood yard, lie gathered up an armful
of wood anti, entering the room, ho
found his faithful wife, who had con
tinued to remain at the old home,
Wulking up to the fire place, he care
loss y threw down his atuiful of wood,

A Lazy Wlilte Man.
The western ludians, although not
fond of work, says the Youth’s Com
panion, do not approve of indolent
white men. The “heap good white
man,” in thuir estimation, is the white
mau who works hard; aud to sit by
aud watch him as he toils seems to af
ford them never failing pleasure.
Sohie young “warriors” of the Black
loot tribe sat in tho shade one day
watching i group of laborers who were
constructing a grade fdr a branch rail
road in Montana. They were com
menting upon the workmen and their
work, when a bicyclist, the first that
they had ever seen, came riding along
the newly completed grade. He had
got Off tho train at the last stat : ou, and
was going to the fort a little further
on.
Ihel ml ians watched the wheelman
without a word until he passed beyond

No,” answered another, with great

SOME GOOD ADVICE.
Practical mxl Uneful Maxim* For Parmci*
Who Arc 'lintt Starting Out.
Many ypung farmers do not know
when they nro really doing well, and
frequently when they have made a
good start and are iu a fair way to dis
tinguish themselves as excellent and
successful farmers, will “sell out.”
This is all wrong. Stick to your farm,
and if you have a good location do not
sell out expecting to bettor it because
you are offered a good price. If your
neighbor can make farming pay ou
your farm resolve that you can do it os
well as he can. Flan a system of im
provement, and as your means warrant,
carry this system out. Do not enter in
to any speculation, either with other
people’s money or your own. Do not
mortgage your farm to buy goods. Do
not buy fancy stock at enormous prices,
without knowing how you will make
the investment profitable. Do not keep
poor stock when you can keep good at
the same expense and with twice the
profit. Do not he tempted by high
prices to plant excessively of any
one crop. Ten chances to one the price
of that crop will he low at harvest time,
while the price of the crops you nog
lected will be high. Do not try to grow
crops for which your farm is not
adapted. Resolve (and stick to it) that
if industry and good management will
make it so, your farm shall be a profita
ble one. Put your surplus earnings into
such improvements as will add to the
profit, appearance and convenience of
your farm. Make experiments, despite
what your neighbors may say. Make
yourselves thoroughly acquainted with
tie- principles of agriculture and be
guided by them. Do not keep more
stock than you have pasture for. If you
own more land than you can cultivate
well, are iu debt, or need money to
make necessary improvements, sell part
! of your laud and use the money to
I pay your debts or make your improve-
I meuts.—Exchange.
