DAWSON TO HAVE A SYSTEM OF
WEATHER FORECASTS
Of Great Value to the Farmers--Expected
Sudden Changes in the Weather
to Be Heralded.
Mayor Cheatham is in recept of the
following communication that he an
swered with the view of securing to
Dawson a splendid system of weather
forecasts:
United States Department of Agricul
ture Weather Bureau—Atlanta, March
28th, 1892.—T0 the Mayor of Dawson,
Ga.,—Dear Sir: You may have noticed
in the Constitution of the 23d and 26th
instant, articles on the subject of protec
tion of fruit and crops from late frosts
by smoke raised by smudges of damp
straw or pine tops. As there stated,
great saving has been effected in some
sections by this method and it is hoped
that the farmers of Georgia will make a
trial of it if there should be late frosts
this spring.
With this end in view, I have secured
permission from the chief of the Weather
Bureau to telegraph the frost warnings
of the bureau to fifty additional points
in Georgia. With the progressive spirit
which has characterized the Weather
Bureau since the transfer to the Depart
ment of Agriculture, the chief has di
rected me to establish at the points se
lected permanent frost warning stations.
A frost warning or cold wave flag will
be furmished to each station, to be dis
played upon the receipt of the warning
telegrams. Hereafter all warnings of
cold waves and frosts issued by the
weather bureau will be telegraphed to
these stations. ‘
These stations will be preferably in the
care of some public officer, as the mayor,
who will see that the warnings are given
the greatest publicity possible in order
that farmers and fruit growers may be
warned of probable frost.
If your people so desire, I shall be
pleased to establish one of these stations
in your town. * In that case, if you will
notify me that you or such other respon
sible party as may be selected will take
charge of the matter, I will send the cold
wave flag and add your town te the list
to be notified.
Prompt action is necessary if the ser
vice is desired, as 1 purpose to establish
at once the fifty new stations in order
that warnings may be given of the frosts
of the next few weeks.
Very truly yours,
PARK MORRILL,
Dirvector Georgia Weather Service.
Mayor Cheatham is expecting the flag
daily.
The weather bureau will be of inesti
mable value to all citizensjand of especial
value to the farmers who come to Daw
son, who will thereby be provided with
means of knowing when to expect a sud
den change in the weather,
If satisfactory arrangements can be
made the signals will be run out on the
top of Baldwin’s building which, from
its prominent location and elevation,
makes it the most available point in the
city.

They Ate Unclean Meat.
There was great trouble in the ortho
dox congregation of Jews in North Bos
ton the other day. It was discovered
hat by the chicanery of some butcher a
number of them had been eating meat
that had not been inspected by the Rabbi
before it was kilied, and had not been
dressed according to the regulations
prescribed by their law,
Great consternation prevailed among
them, and emetics were in active'demand
at the drug stores in the neighborhood.
A largely attended meeting was held to
consider the outrage, and a resolution
adopted that the vessels in which the un
clean meat was cooked should all be
destroyed.

As do her angel-pointed eyes of blue,
A wild-rose pink, a sea-shell's dainty

Were borrowed to bewitch her bonny

I'll tell her this forever, o’er and o’er.
Forever and a day I'll love her, too,
Because her heart is mine her heart so

She loves and lives, and lives and loves

And for her sake I'll all things lovely

For her, my love, my angel treasure,

A TRIP TO HADES. |
Remarkable Story for Which a West Vir
ginia Minister is Responsible.
The Rev. John T. Johnson,the celebra
ted mountain evangelist, who has been
traveling through the state for neariy
forty years, states that during a revival
4t Round Bottom, Monongahela eounty,
a younz man of that place. who had been
ill with consumption for some time, died,
descended into hell and returned to life
in an hour, and, after describing his
torrid trip, embraced religion, and again
diel happily, in the full belief of his fu
ture salvation.
After stating that the young man, who
was one of the most intellivent in the
country, was a sceptic, Mr. Johnson
says:
“‘He was apparently lying at the point
of death. "The Rev, Mr. O'Daniels and
myself were called upon to endeaver to
being him to Christ,
“While Mr. O'Daniels was talking to
him, he seemingly expired, and was pro
nounced dead by all in the room. He
remained in this condition for some time,
when he suddenly began breathing heav
ily, and then struggling as though with
som2 mighty monster.
“He seemed endowed with with super
natural strength, and it required the ut
most exertions of several powerful men
to keep him on the bed. The straggle
continued for an hour, when he calmed
down and regained his senses, requesting
that we sing and pray with him.
“After the exercises were over, he
told us that when he.became insensible
to earth he found himself at the brink
of a yawning black chasm. Lund ffres
seemed to be burning at a great distance
down, and shiieks of the most anearthly
kind greeted his ears.
“After remaining quiet a short time
he felt a thread by his hand, He grasped
it, and had hardly done so when a
mighty wind struck his body, almost
tearing his limbs out of their sockets,
and dashing him down ipto the mouth
of the pit, where he swayed from side to
side, clinging to the thread which alone
kept him from falling to the fiames be
low.
“He knew that should the thread
break or he lose his grasp he was doomed
forever, and he thought to himself: ‘I
have been sceptic, and God Almighty is
showing me that there is a hell of dark
ness and fire to which unbelievers are
exposed,’ and he grasped the thread the
tighter.
‘After what seemed to him an interm
inable time the wind ceased, and he
knew nothing until he requested the
ministers to pray for him. Shortly after
his return to life,” Mr. Johnson con
tinued, ‘‘he made his peace with God,
and after giving full directions regarding
his burial, bidding his friends good-by
and requesting Mr. O’Daniels when he
officiated at his funeral to relate his re
markable experience for the benefit of
others, died practically in his Savior's
arms.”’
That Messrs. Johnson, O'Daniels and
‘others who witnessed this strange affair
'l)elieve actually in the supernatural oc
currence is uuquestionad. They are all
persons whose veracity is beyond ques
tion, and even the physicians assert the
young man was actually dead.
The narration of the story at the funer
al caused considerable excitement, and
the people are tfloc«ing to the churches
throughout the neighborhood. Meet
ings have often been held day and night
since Thursday, the day upon which the
young man was buried.
It is said that the final request of the
man was that a report of his experience
be published broadcast, so that. all men
Imight know there was a hell.—Clarks

' Inquisitive people jin the country
' sometimes find small satisfaction in cat
echising little country boys about thejr
names and affairs. A “summer boarder”
once said to a small boy dressed ina
broad straw hat, a gingham waist, long
trousers and bare feet:
~ “Hello, little boy! What is your
name?"’
“Same as pa's,” said the boy.
“What's your pa’s name?"
‘‘Same as mine."”
“I mean, what do they call you when
they call you to breakfast?"
“They don’t nuver call me to break
fust.”
“Why don’t they?"
“Cause I alluz gzit there the fust one!”

I stood on the bridge at midnight, as
