This 13 the question that has been given the greatest consideration by the press of the conutrv, the. solution of which is not an easy matter. Refer ring to it an exchange says: “The proper wa- to build up a town is to cither run it with vim or else to sell out and leave. Men who are always going to get out of business never do help to build up a town. Either run a thing for all it is worth, get up steam and keep it up, or quit the whole thing; slide out and let nature take its course. If Basi ls to come to you speak a good word and encourage those who do come. If you want a prosperous town, to which people can come who propose to make homes with you, then do away with and bury from sight all jealousies and spites, growling and fault finding, work no more for a few individuals, but all work for a common prosperity and mutual benefit. Wake up and rub your eyes, roll up your sleeves and go to work with a vim. Don’t work with fear and trembling, but take it for truth that “blood will tell.” In this day of booms and plunges the old croaker must go, pessimists and pull- backers can have no place in the mod ern procession of progress. Live men only can make a town.”—Mobile^ News. Robbers Get $20,000 in Chicago. Chicago, Nov. 15.— John A. Drake, president of the Indianna, Illinois and Iowa Railroad Company, was sandbag ged and robbed of $20,000 in the office of the company on the ninth floor of the Rockery building at 7 o’clock to-day. Drake had a little hand sachel and wa3 preparing to go out on the road to pay the employes. He had placed the cash in the valise and was about to leave the office when two men stole up behind him and felled him to the floor by several hard blows on the head. The treasurer was knocked nearly insensible and before he could move a finger in self defense he claims the thieves tore the sacliel from his hand and rushed out of the office, slamming the door as they went. Drake notified the Central station as on as possible and by 8 o’clock every detective that Inspector Shae could spare was put to work on the case. 647 979. 55. Colored, 521 IN THE SANCTUMS.

A printer walked into a certain busi ness house in his rounds to know who desired anything in the way of advertise ments, and noticed that a drummer stood by the counter with his sample valise ready to open. “Anything you want to say in the paper this week ?” said the printer to the business man be hind the counter. “No,” said the busi ness man, “I don’t believe in advertis ing.” The drummer waited until he was half way to the door, then slowly taking up his sample valise, remarked: “Well, that lets me out. I do not care to sell on time to any man who, in this age, does not believe in advertising. I pre fer to deal with live men. When I want to strike up a trade with a dead man I’il go to the graveyard.

Well, the doctor had a lady patient in the country recently, for whom he pre scribed quinine and furnished same in capsules. When the doctor was leaving after the second visit, finding the patient much better, she called to him as he getting in his buggy, saying: “Hold cn doctor, here’s the little bottles that the quinine was in, I’ve saved them all for you.” And sure enough, she had taken the quinine out of the capsules, put it in a spoon and swallowed it; and s; the “little bottles” for the doctor. Some Brooks County Hogs. Quitman Free Press. Mr. E. J. Young yesterday sold to Lawrence W. Hendry, of Macon, 120 head of fine hogs. The hogs would average 200 lbs. on their feet and were sold that way at five cents per lb. This amounts to the snugsiim of $1,200. Mr. Young runs a four mule farm. In ad dition to the hogs sold he still has 35 head of hip finest ones left for killiug. There’s money in farming, hut you must;khb\v how to do it right. The Quarantine Will Soon be Off. Another frost or two like the one of last night and the quarantine will soon be off. The cold wave which has been moving south for the past two days, struck the infected district last night. Frost and thin ice is reported from Brunswick this morning. A good hard freeze is looked for and hoped for to night There is hardly a doubt that the end of the epidemic has come. God grant it. The Frost this Morning. The beautiful frost this morning, cov ering hill and dale, house top and sward with its mantle of white. A feeling of thankfulness and general relief prevades the land, for now we know that the crobe is dead and that relief for our afflicted sister city has surely come. We have every reason to believe that the frost was general throughout south and southeast Georgia last night, from the seaboard west. The cold weather upon us and it is welcome. Life Is Misery.

The Augusta Exposition opened yesterday and will continue a month. Brunswick will soon be all right, and few will rejoice more than the writer. Is’nt there some way to dodge the question by pioving that there were no recent elections. The recent elections teach some sort of a les3oa, but it seems hard to find out just what it is. It is reported from Cuba that fif teen cities are m open rebellion against the Soanish government. It is pretty generally understood now, that the Democratic party will have some business on hand a little later. train was wrecked on the Pluis- auce last night, but the fair owner repaired the damage with a few pins. •Augusta News.

Cleveland was off with his secre tary yesterday, but nobody was allowed to know where he had gone. He was probably out for a day’s fishing. A NEGRO SPEAKS. The Hawaiian questiou seems to be assuming serious proportions. It is quite evident that the President | Aus , and the Cabinet are not pulling to- gether in the matter. He Tells the Christian Worly*rs What Ills Race Mont Needs. Atlanta, Nov. 16.—The seventh day of the Christian Workers* stay in Atlan ta was still on the line of home mis sions. An interesting event of the session was the speech of Robert TJ. Washington, a young colored man, who was introduced as the president of the Tuskegeo Normal and Industrial institute. He made a brief but telling talk about the work done at this institute. He began by saying that if it was necessary to save members of the Anglo- Saxon race, which was on its feet, how much more necessary was it to save and put on its feet the other and less favored race. He laid particular stress on the fact that this was work done down in the black belt of Alabama by his own people. It was carried on there whore the negro outnumbered the whites three to one, and great good was being done. The work was started 12 years ago at an abandoned cotton plantation, with one teacher :m«l 30 scholars. Now fhere are 41 teacher* and officers and 500 stu dents. The places cover 1,900 acres of laud and lias 19 industrial institutions in Which work is carried on in wood, loath ly $20ofoOUAnd it! The annual expenses of the place run up to nearly a year, ' A few students were foundnVOo to pay $8 a month, but many others who could ‘ not pay were allowed to work ono-half of their time for their board. Five hundred acres of land aro culti vated ou the farm, which is made an ob ject lesson to the studen'.s. No industry, said the speaker, is needed more among tho colored people of the south than that of agriculture. rome^sT STOCK SHOW. The Hill City Will Be the Scene of a Fine Stock Display. Rohe, Ga., Nov. 16.—Thelatest thing for Rome in the way of a convention will be the stock raisers’ convention to be held Dec. 1. The main feature of the convention will be a display of southern raised horses and fine blooded cows and all kinds of stock produced on the farms of Georgia, East Tennessee and North Ala bama. The old fair grounds of the north Geor gia and Alabama exposition will be used as the place of exhibit and races. The object of the meeting is to stimulate stock raising in the south, showing the pecuniary profit in stock, besides demon strating the fact that this section of the south can compete with the cattle rais ing and horse breeding states of the west successfully. AT THE FAIR. The democratic legislation durirg the next six months will open Ike eyes of the people and prove • that the democratic party is the party of the people. The sins of the republican party were visited upon the heads of the democrats recently.Democratic shoul ders are broad but not broad enough to bear the sins of the republicans. Mr. David L. Cohen, one of Sa vannah’s oldest and best known con tractors, died at bis home ia that city yesterday morning. Mr. Cohen was 73 years of age.
