An Inoeiuliary Fire that Dili a Great
Deal of Damage.
Gr'fkin, Ga., Juty C.— Eire was
discjvered this morning about 1 o’clock
in the ell of the Georgia hotel. The
0
build'ng was old, and being dry burned
like tinder, so rapidly in fact that be
fore the firemen reached the scene the
Haines were entirely beyond all control.
Realizing this their attention was given
to the adjoining buildings, hut with lit
tie effect until three other buildings
were burned in addition to the old ho
tel.
The buildings weie occupied by the
Osborn & Walcott Manufacturing Com
pany for seating and storing chairs.
The buildings were all full, there being
30,000 chairs stored in the house for
shipment. The loss iu etiairs will
amount to .tin, ooo, in addition to the
building which was practically value
less.
There was no insurance on either
the stock or building, hence the loss is
total.
The (ire was of incendiary origin ev
idently as the police say they were
called a considerable distance from their
heats by the loud anil long sounding of
a police gong and on their return found
the building iu flames.
'Hie chair factory employed over a
hundred hands who are today out ol
employment, but from Mr. W R, Wal
cott The Consiittr.‘T«n learns fha# rtifcv 4
will be in good shape in a few days,
filling orders as though no fire had oc
curred.
This fire was the first fair test our
water works have been put to, and, with
the exception of a few minutes delay
in starting, worked admirably, which
was fortunate for the property owners
in the vicinity.
The tonight arrested a negro
boy, who gave his name as Will Clark,
on suspicion of being the party who set
fire to the chair factory this morning.
Clark gives various | laces where he
says he was at the time of the fire. Of
ficer Cunningham passed the ne a ro ou
ly a short time before the fire was dis
covi red in the vicinity of the building
He stated to the ollicer that he w'as
waiting for a woman. This the officers
do not believe, and hope to get evidence
from tiie party he claims to have been
waiting for.
A New Accident Insurance Company
in tiie South.
A recent trip of Mr. Lockwood, the
President of the Provident Fund Soci
ety of New York, through the South
convinced him of the impor
tance of establishing for his com
pany a southern department or
branch with principle office at Atlanta,
for winch arrangements have been
made. This southern department will
comprise the states of Georgia, North
and South Carolina, Virginia Tennes
see, Alabama and Florida. All busi
ness in tiiese states will be conducted
through the Atlanta office, which will
be fully equipped and under able
management.
The Provident Fund Accident
Society has an excellent reputation ;
has paid many thousands of dollars to
its members in indemnity, and is a
company that ought to make a steady
progress in the great new south.
The company has branch offices es
tablished at Denver, St. Paul. Cleve
land, Philadelphia, Washington and
Cincinnati, and is making liberal con-
tracts with ab)e men that pan secure j
business. The principal office of the
society is at 20 Broadway, New York
city.—Atlanta Constitutien, dune 9,

1 lie Southern Department is under
the management of M. Lee Starke, and
arrangements are now being made to
have leading men of the South repre
sent the company l!ig inducements
are offered to the right men. The best

SINSHIMS.
Sunshine gilds the risen eart'i,
Its glorv tills the skies ;
It lightens even oeean caves
Where coral islands rise.
It paints the domes of cloud.land
In amber, gold and blue,
And w ith magic touch throws open
Enchanted worlds to view.
There’s sunshine in the rainbow's
Wondorous arch of light;
Sunshine in the rose’s heart,
And in the mountain height;
It throws its golden lanees
Across the tall young trees.
Where the minstrel-wind low music
A limit them softly weaves.
It sparkles in tlie landscape,
And on mosses eool and green;
Rv purling brooks whose ripples
Leap lightly in the sheen;
And song birds make their toilets
“ Helicalli its chandeliers,
And trills a marlin chorus
Most sweet to listening ears.
Sunshine on the ea th all vernal,
Sunshine in the soft, liLue sky,
Sunshine 011 the gleaming river
Where south winds murmur by
And youths and maidens joyous
Roam Idrcst green and old,
And shout, “O, Sunshine, welcome !
And crow us with your gold,"
It trembles on the jasmine
Just liv the cottage door,
The “liaby” tries to grasp it—
The sunshine on the tioor.
Bet no, it w ill not linger
Within her dimpled hand,
Though lying there so brightly,
A broad and golden band.
************
Throw wide the doors and windows
Let in the heavenly guest,
That as a benediction
Comes but to make us blest,
And typify the sunshine
Of file we. would impart—
Have sunshine in tlie household,
Hiki! sunshine in Dio h-ui*.
llovv to Decline a Treat.
The follow ing conversation was heard
between two collegians who was dis
cussing a class dinner:
“Of course,” said one (with a conse
quential touch of self-complaceuoy and
patronage which only length of days
can cure),”if a fellow hasn't wit enough
to stop, he,d better he careful at first-
Some heads are built, weak you
know.”
“Careful in what?” interrupted I, and
both laughed.
“Why, drinking of course,” said the
first speaker. “A fellow has to take the
seasoning sooner or later. Some can
stand it. Some cannot, at least for a
while.”
Ha was, as 1 have intimated, a fresh
man llis friend, a bearded senior, the
only son of a rich man, slapped him
good-humoredly on the shoulder.
“When I was your age, old fellow,
my father said to me, if 1 had my life
to live over, 1 would never take a glass
of wine or smoke a cigar. I answer, it
would he foolish not to profit by what
such a sensible man says. “I have nev
er tasted wine or touched tobacco, and I
am glad of it—gladder every day I live.
I might have been ‘built’ with a
strong head—and then, again I might
not.
“What do you sav when you are of
fered a treat?”
“I say, ‘no thank you, I never take
it. Generally that settles the matter
quietly.”
“And if they poke fun at your”
“1 let them ‘|K>ke’ and then stand
ready to pnt them to bed when their
heads give out."
There are—for the comfort of moth
ers he it said—many a “fellow” strong
enough to maintain this stand, sensible
enough to see that the risks are not
worth taking. It is the fool who med
dles with firearms, the coward who car
ries a loaded revolver.
Condition vs. Theory.
Those who are in 'll-health are pon
frouted by a condition, not a theoiy,
although there are numbers of people
ready and anxious to theorize about it.
In ninety nine cases out of a hundred
■S. S. S. will do the work of renova
tion. In cases of indigestion, loss of
appetite and general debility, this won
medicine acts with almost miraculous
certainty. It testores the activity of
the liver, purifies the blood and bnilds
up the system. As a tonip f«r yopug
ai d old it is without a rival. Though
it is powerful in its effects, the young
est or the oldest can take it with the
most beneficial effects. 8. S. K. has
behind it a recoril of half a century,
and is more popular as a household
remedy to-day than ever before.
MOVE ON—REST.
A large city, like Atlanta presents
many different-phases of human life
Sunshine and shadow are strangely
blended. Joy and pain stalk the same
highway, and the sombre pall >of mis
ery and suffering is often spread within
arm’s reach of dancing sunbeaids. The
ear catches the sound of childish laugh
ter, happy in the exuberance of hope
and freedom from care, and before the
echo has died away on the restless
breeze, comes a wail of sorrow from a
houseless waif whom God bus kissed
and bade to suffer
At the city police station one uight
during the recent cold spell were an
old man and a little boy, who were
picked up while wandering aimlessly
about the streets.
T hey were fatherland son. The old
man’s hair was white as snow, and his
body was beut almost double by ebron
ic rheumatism, w hich rendered one arm
and one leg partially useless. A white
bandage around his head concealed a
terrible cancer which had despfciled one
eye of its sight, and was relentlessly
eating an inroad to the brain.
The little boy was scarcely more
than 7 years of age. 11 is face was
hard ami pinched from hunger and ex
posure, and his clothes hung in tatters
about his frail little body.
The couple seemed an impersonation
of late winter and early spring. Rut
unlike spring there was no suulhiue in
the face of the little fellow. He looked
as though such a thing as the bright
and genial glow of sunlight had never
flitted across his rugged pathway.
After bliuking his eyes for awhile in
the light of tho warm station house fire
tie threw himself on the floor at »the
feet of his aged companion and sauk to
sleep, not dreaming, perhaps, of the
hundreds of little boys in Atlanta, who
were at that moment being tucked away
in downy beds with ruby lips bathed
in the warm incense of n mother's kiss.
\Y bile till! child sh-pt ths rfW in I"
told his story.
They were tramps foot balls of fate
on a forced march before the goading
blasts of adversity, their troubled sleep
broken at every resting place by the
inexorable command to “move on.’’
It had not always been thus. On a
green sward in dear old Kentucky there
was once a home which the old man
called his own. It was suriaiiiiiled
with every thing to make me comforta
ble. The old man’s color came and
went as lie pictured how the honey
suckle and the rose linked their ten
drils about the veranda mingling their
fragrance with that of the violets ; how
mocking birds and nightingales sat in
the tall cedar near the front gate and
sang love songs to the shimmering
moonbeams, and how at eventide he
used to sit with his happy family and
watch the sun as he crimsoned the wes
tern hilltops with the halo of lus dying
glory. But a change came over the
beautiful scene. The (lowers refuses! to
bloom in resjionse to the kiss of spring;
the songs of the birds were hushed and
the days grew dark and dreary. Every
breeze that, swept through ihe hough of
the tall cedar seemed to be freighted
with disaster. A bank in which the
old man bad deposited the earnings of
bis toil failed, and with it came a terri
ble epidemic that fastened its poisoned
fangs on the devoted family circle.
First the wife of bis bosom was.strick
en down; then, oue by one, the chil
dren, till all had closed their eyes in
that wakeless sleep, save the little
homeless waif that slumbered at his
feet. Then it was that a pimple on the
old man’s face began to inflame, and
rheumatism fastened its ruthless grasp
on his jworn out limbs. Closing the
doors of bis desolated borne, lie sought
relief at the hands of medical skill till
the remnant of his broken fortuue was
gone. Fate foui d him standing on the
threshold of his home when the remorse
less hammer of the sheriff transferred
it to other bauds.
After breathing a prayer over the
graves of his loved ones, and casting a
last lingering, look on the cheerished
surroundings, he and his child turned
their backs on the scene, never to re
turn save in their dreams.
Through shadowy vales, over rugged
bills the wandering pilgrims trod their
lonely way, going they knew not where,
and greeted at every pause with thp *ii
pyitah'p vpanqate, “move on.”
Thus came they to Atlanta and thus
they went away.
\\ ith tears running down bis weath
er-beaten cheeks, the kin lliearted sta
tion house keeper approached them and
said, “You must move on. God knows
if I had my way, old man, I would not
send a dog out this kind of nigh, hut
Atlanta has poor of its own who are
crying for all the charity it can spare.
Here is a pass to Birmingham where
you came from, and the train will leave
in twenty minutes.”
l’he words “move 011” sped like a
lightning flash to the unconscious liraiu
of the sleeping child, and, throwing his
little Iwmds up to ward off an expected
blow, he scrambled to his feet and
•toml trembling by the side of his aged
father.
The seutiuels of the black watch who
had assembled at the station house to go
out on their beats at the hour of 12,
stepped forward one by one and
dropped a helping coin into the palsied
hand of the old man.
A few moments later the tramps
moved on nevet again to sit in the glow
of Atlanta’s warm station house fire.
Out into the cheerless night—with pit
iless clouds above them and howling
winds around them —Fate led them to 1
read on scowling faces and stern lips
at the next halting plane hut another!
“move on.”
“Move on !” “Move on !" “Move
on !”
Rut a few more time repeated and
the old man will halt where the wild
waves of eternity lash the shores of
time. Then will Death, the end of all
earthly suffering, step from the mists
that lie beyond, and with icy linger
dipped 111 tears of pity, lie will write on j
the furrowed brow of the old man :

'The parallels between animate and
inanimate creatures are not infrequent
ly noticeable.
The analogies of life are often so
potent in their illustrations that the
rhetorician and the scholar find in
them the most beautiful pictures and
theiq figures of speech, strike the key
note of illustra'ion with a force that at
once .startles and captivates you.
But to draw the | arallel and trace
the analogy just here, did you ever see
a car or a train off the track ?
If you have you can readily under
stand what trouble it causes, what la
bor it entails and what serious results
often follow.
And men frequently get o/T the
track. The groove in which wo run is
sometimes obstructed with some little
obstacle and some person who has on
too much steam or is laboring under a
strain of too much motive power finds
the obstacle too much and at oiice gets
off the track.
The results of a man's derailment,
so to speek, is frequently as fatal in its
result as that of a car or train. It not
infrequently causes loss of life or
limb, and brings sorrow and suffering
upon othets. Again, the sad results
are to him alone who flies the track
and goes helter-skelter into the ditch.
Sometimes a man gets off the track
and it is a very easy matter for him fo
be put back on. His friends come to
his rescue and lifting him like they
would a street car, put him back where
he properly belongs and he goes run
niug along smoothly, But then again
he is too violent, he tries to turn a
curve around one of Nature’s corners
too suddenly or too swiftly and wreck
ensues. The wrecking train in the
shape of friends comes along and after
repairing the damage, he is started out
again, but he is crippled and injured,
and can’t run as he once did or accom
plish as much by his speed.
The best schedule iu life to run is
to keep the engine of life iu good
working order, with plenty of steam
for occasions that demand it, but alwve
ail things—keep on the track and the
right one. —Albany News and Adver

says : If a business man has an em

He gives the employe Ins walking pa

apply to politics. Officers and repre

A Crisis At Iltuul.
No wonder the Farmers’ Alliance is
a fata ot tremendous existence,
No wonder that the laboring man of
ever}’ line of industry are aroused to a
degree of self-defenso never before I
witnessed in the history of the
world.
No wonder the thoughtful men of
business, the merchant and the hanker
alike, are set in their determination to
have relief from the crushing burdens
laid upon them and upon every man,
woman and child in the country.
No wonder that the handwriting is
up<m the wall, making plain in living
letters tho doom of the republican
party, a party that lias only been a
curse to tho American people and a
menace to national and individual Jife
and liberty.
Why, just read this startling state
ment from the Washington Post:
“For the next two years ourgovern
! incut will spend annually more than
' $500,000,000.
“To pay one year’s expenses of the
government it will take nearly tlie
combined wheat and oat crop.
“Our annual output of gold, silver,
copper, iron, coal, pertroleum and lead
will not foot our tax bill for twelve
months.
“Nor can we do it with a jear’s
product of cotton, wool, rye, barley,
wine, potatoes and tobacco.
“Tho combined capilulizaiior. of our
uat ional banks is #509,000,000. One
year’s taxes will will nearly swallow it
up.
“Now, all this is the Federal tux.
We have also to pay city, country and
st ate tax os.
“We pretend to he a nation of plain
people, with no aristocracy, no princes,
no standing army expensive frills and
yet our taxes are more enormous than
those of Austria, Germany or Great
Britain."
This is no overdraw or partisan
picture.
It is a stern presentation of facts
which stare the American people, the
tax payers, in the face and causes rest
| lessness. uneasiness and muttering of
revolution all over the land.
The people must have relief or
there will ho trouble—serious and ir
remediable trouble. There must he a
return to thu simpler and more
economic administration of the govern"
tuent or there will he no government
to be administered.
Here is work for the democratic
party which is laid upon it by the op
pressed people of the countiy, and that
party dare not shirk the responsibility
or turn a deaf ear to the cry of dis
tress.
There is restlessness and discontent,
and justly so, among the farmers of the
country. Years of grinding oppres
sion have been their lot. Years of toil
without just remuneration have been
their portion. These are no idle words
They are of truth and sober
ness and the party of people, the dem
ocratic party, cannot afford to treat
with neglect or contempt or indiffer
ence the stein determination of the
brave and patient men who make up
the great army of the Farmers’ Alli
ance, to have justice metered out to
them by the democratic party or out
side of it.—Homo Tribune.
To Limit Cotton Production.
Cuaki.eston, S. C., .July B. —The
low price of cotton is causing great dis
satisfaction among the farmers in this
state, and various propositions hav e
been made to limit the production by a
decrease of act cage, in plowing up one
fourth devices. The Farmers Alla nee
Marlboro county, iu this state, has
adopted the following resolutions :
That we pledge ourselves to plant
oi.ly ten acres of cotton to the horse iu
18112 ; provided we can get the co-op
eration of all the cotton states, so as to
decrease the production of cotton, and
so obtain the due rewaid for our labor,
j Second, That we re quest the state
I alliance to call for a convention of the
cotton growers of the south, irrespect
ive of class or color, to meet not later
than December Ist next, to consider
the same.
The state alliance will meet at Spar
tanburg July 22d, and will probably
take action ou the subject.

Allegiance of AUiancemen.
From the inception of the alliance
movement Kansas has had more to
say upon tins subject than any other
two states, and, in consequence, has
besti consideied the stronghold of the
farmers’ alliance. Yet it is" the flrlt
state to show unmistakable signs of
weakness and disruption in the organ
ization.
Immediately after the result of the
third party movement, into which the
alliance was to have been merged, be
came known in Kansas it was taken
up by the alliance and promptly re
prudiated by at least twenty-live sub
alliances.
Such a course was all rational and
regular enough, liut the reason as
signed for it sounds a little singular.
That third party project was rejected
not because it was adjudged injurious
or devoid of advantageous prospects
for the alliance, but it was discounte-
! "anced for the assigned reason that
such a movement would tend to dis
rupt the Republican party. Follow
ing close upon this decision quite a
number of the sub-alliances reported
action to the republican state central
committee, and subsequently adopted
resolutions advising members to ignore
the third party and return to their for
mer political affiliations. This course
of proceedings pretty clearly indicates
that the Kansas farmers’ ailliance is but
an adjunct of the Republican party,
a realy great service in disclosing its
true character in time for any possible
political influence it might exert to be
counteracted.
In some of the other western states
the republican leaders are making
headway in an effort to keep republi
can alliancemeu out of the People’s
party. And one thing that is helping
them is the refusal of the People’s
party to put a prohibition plank in its
platform. As a rule alliancemeu are
prohibitionists, and they are as much
in favor of prohibiting the liquor traf
fic as they are in securing some of the
other things they are demanding.
Southern alliancemeu who regard
the People’s party with favor should
study carefully the course of western
alliancemeu with reference to tlio
third party. If they should it is prob
able that they would be satisfied to re
main in the Democratic party. It cun
be staled pretty safely that when tho
time for voting comes most of the wes
tern ulliaucemen will have republican
ballots in their bauds. —Savannah
