Among the incidents of childhood that stand out in bold relief, as our memory reverts to the days when we were young, none are more prominent than severe sickness. The young mother vividly remembers that it was Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy cured her of croup, and in turn administers it to her own off spring and always with the best of re sults.

By order of City Coancil.. This Sept. SO, 1893. R. P. Bird. Clerk of Council. Make Them Better People. In the following paragraph the Al bany News and Advertiser puts the thing in a nutshell: The negroes of the South are trying to cftect some means to suppress lynching*. Let them make better people of their race and the matter will be settled. AcddentaUy~KIUed Himself. Thomas Averiett, a splendid young man about twenty years old, living near Jasper in Hamilton county Florida, was found dead near his home on ' Wednes day last. He was out hunting and it is supposed that he accidentally shot him self. The coromers jury gave a verdict to that effect. Wr. Everiett has relatives in Waycross and his death is very much regretted. In the Swim Again. It gives us great pleasure to note the fact that the Ocala New Capitol, which has been suspended for a few days, is on its legs. The ' Capitol, under the able editorial management of J. H. Hanlon, is one of the best of the small dailies, and j Ocala will stand sadly in her. own light if she does not sustain it liberally. A Parable. A Microbe and a Germ halted on. the railroad track, where they met, about twenty miles east of Waycros9, when the following conversation took place: - - . Microbe—Been up tlie^road? Germ—Yes, been to the outskirts of Waycross. Microbe—What luck? Germ—None at all. Nothing there to feed on. Microbe—Did you see Perham ? Germ—Yes, he wa9 fishing for sbeephead some distance from the city. Microbe - Did you attack him ? Germ—No, I never gnaw a file— not eveu a newspaper fi— Microbe—Don’t joke <m so serious a subject. Germ—From the way he fished, the meat question must have been a serious subject Wltli him.. Microbe—Then there’s no use going to Waycross. Germ—None at all. Nextto Ocala, Fla., it’s the cleanest city I’ve seen, and we would starve to death if we went there. Then they, locked arras and sadly moved away toward the coast.—Ocala New Capitol, Distinguished Japs. Two distinguished Japanese gentle men, accompanied by an interperter, spent last night in Waycross and left this lhoming for New Orleans. They have been making a tour of the United States and it is their special mission to investigate the cultivation of rice in this country. They come from the west and will return.home by way oT the east, making a circuit of the globe during their absence from home. The Louisville-Courier-Journal re fers* to the anti-repeal Seuators as an insolent and desperate band of buccaneers, and expresses the hope that the repeal Senatore will neither capitulate to nor dicker with them. The equalization of the purchasing power of gold and silver and paper money is what the Chicago platform demands, and this demand has a sturdy advocate in President Cleve land.'

A negro named Berry Merriwether was shot and* killed on the streets of Atlanta last night, but that’s a small matter in Atlanta. The Atlanta Herald says the day of bull pens, back room manipulators and the like are over in local politics in that city. It is said that Col. Huff, of Macon, will be a candidate for Congress from theSixth districts The Brunswick Times-Advertiser reaches us about two days after publica tion, and smells strongly of sulphur. Who have you been associating with, Brother Wrench? The Albany News and Advertiser, which has been suspended for a week, shows its familiar face in our office again this morning. Pruitt’s pluck is all right but we doubt his judge—ment. It is thought that the Senate will reach some kind of a compromise daring the present week. This is children’s week at the Chi cago fair, and it is to be hoped the little folks are having a *jice time. The Democratic party throughout Georgia must hold "primaries for every nomination.
