Close of the Exposition.
Augusta, Ga., Dee. 14.-The ‘Au
gusta exposition closed to-night after
being opened thirty days. It has not
only been a great industrial triumph
but a financial success. It has attracted
here many notable people during. it
continuance, and has been the. means of
giving Augusta a marvelous advertise
ment throughout the country. To lion,
Patrick Walsh, more than to anybody,
is due the success that has been achiev
ed; indeed, but for his determination,
energy and resources, there would have
been no exposition. The community
fully appreciates the fact, and he can
have anything lie wants in Augusta for
the asking. Indeed, he may have a bur
densome honor thrust upon him without
the asking for, a prominent physician
said to the Morning News correspondent.
“The people of Augusta must as one
man make Patrick Walsh mayor next
year by acclamation.”
Despite the sudden bleak chage in the
weather, the people flocked to the expo
sition to-day; and the great show went
out in a blaze of glo.y.

the result of the recent agitation in con

DEAD IS R0CKIXG CHAIRS.
Tlie Other Members of the Family Too
Ill to Bury the Bodies.
Middletown, N. Y., Dec. 17.—Sit
ting side by side in their large, old fash
ioned rocking chairs by the fire, the
bodies of Susan and Elizabeth Raynor,
of Sugar Loaf, were discovered late yes
terday afternoon. The women had died
24 hours befere of pneumonia, and al
though two other sisters and a brother
were in the same hoase they had been
too ill to care for the bodies of their
dead or to notify their neighbors.
The family, which Is well to do, rang
ed in age from 45 to 65. The two de
ceased sisters were in the neighborhood
of 60 years old. The surviving members
of the family appear little moved by tbe
sad death of the sisters.
It is said that au effort will be
made to down Beu Russell in tbe
Second district, but it will surely
fail. Ben is too good a democrat to
be downed.—Darien Gazette.

No, Mel Branch is not dead. He
was only waiting an opportunity.
When last heard from he was en
deavoring to have an article from the
Atlanta Constitution read at the
clerk’s desk and incorporated as a
part of his speech assaulting the dem
ocratic party.—Valdosta Times.
“The mistake I made was ray fail
ure to advertise my change of . loca
tion. Had I used printer's ink, I
would not have had to suspend.”
That is tbe explanation of tbe latest
suspension in New York by the vic
tim himself. -People in business
