In the days before the count i» was grfdlroned with railroads, people, Cdme here from fifty miles distant to se« their cotton and trade. Rallroada have changed these conditions, bu nothlngc an affect the spirit of hope- fulnees and the enterprise that exist, ‘here. Hawkinsville has its face turned to tilie future, and Is not sitting by the wayside waiting tor a streak of luc" to come along sad lift every one into the lap ot fortune. Everybody an. everything that means the upbuilding of Georgia or the development of he resources will be met with out stretched arms and a cordial welcome here. I have yet to find the persod tn this place who does not believe that good times are coming. • The nucleus of a business that will be an important factor in Georgia’s in dustrial future—the canning of frultn and vegetables—has been started here The Spring Haven Canning Company, Pate & Willis proprietors, commences operations in 1893.'Owing to the scarci ty of fruit, they confined themselves t canning tomatoes. Running full o: paclty they will employ 100 hands, and turn ou t 5,000 cans per day. Their out put this season was 5.000 cases. Next year tney Intend to plant 100 acres ti tomatoes. In Bpedking of their business, Mr. Pate said: "We intend to run to our full capacity next year If possible. Yot 0'ight say also, for it will reach those interested througn the Telegrapa, that tie canning comDanies of should organize an association for th purpose ot securing and maintaining a fixed price for their product. This would give us a certainty in business.

Tom Bradley Killed at Albany for Talking about Women. Albany. "Ga.. Nov. 26.—This morning about 11 o'clock a. shooting scrape oc curred In East Albany, a suburb of this olty. which may result to the death of Tom Bradley, oi negro, who was shot to the left side The shoot- ln» wits done by C, W. Ferrell ana a nob named Handin (white) who were influenced to do the shooting by state' ments that Bradley had made about tnein'io tho effect that Bradley’s mother and the mothers of both Fer rell and Hardin wore, all raised upon the same plantation In Florida, and that they were all negroes. The negro made these statements boldly, and when accosted by Ferrell and Hardin made an effort to shoot Ferrell, .but changed his mind, began to run nway and wa« shot in hht flight. There was no foundation for the ne ; gro’s scandalous statements concern ing the two white women, and the mo tive for them is found in the fact that through Ferrell’s influence Hardin had succeeded in ousting Bradley from a JOb and getting It himself. This an gered Bradley, and ho immediately be gan to circulate the statements. Fer rell and Hardin were arrested, but gave bond. 3.UW MILL BURNED.

Y., Nov. 26.—There was a very good crowd nt the arena of the Seaside Athletic Club, Coney Island, tonight, to see tho Boxing conttlta The dab presented an Inviting programme, dnd it had the desired effeot: The contest between Billy Pllmmer and Obarlie Kelly was of course the star bout of tho evening, being advertised aa a 'twenty-round fight for a purse of 22,560, winner to take all. but generally understood tlu'cuguou.t sporting circles that tne fight would virtually be to a finish. The other contests, though of not so many rounds, were os no small Importance. The first bout was one of six rounds between two Brooklyn boys of 112 pounds each. It was declared by the referee to be a draw, and by the au dience to be a bore. i I The next bout was a contest of eight rounds Between Billy Vernon of Hav- erstraw and Bobby Dobbs of Minneap- , 135 Pounde. for a purse of 2500.

Robb. All of hie seconds wero from England. The men had to weigh In at tho ringside at ill rounds and thsy were both down to wolght. Kelly had bandages on his wrist* and Pllmmer objected, nnd they were removod. Kelly’s seconds were Howls Hodgkins, Tom Connolly, Jim Kel ly and Pete Butler. Roond 1.—Kelly led with his left twice and missed. Pllmmer landed a hot right on Kelly’a face and the men clinched. Pllmmer sent a hot right on Kelly’a wind and got a light left on the face tn re turn. Kelly did not seem to bo able to land and several of his leads fell ehort Pfimmer Jabbed his left on Kelly’s face three or four times without a roturn. Kelly was Wild and did not seem able to land with any effect. Round 2.—Pllmmer was cool and con fident when he came up for this round. He planted his loft on Kelly's mouth and trotted back laughingly as ho got away from Kelly’a vicious swings. Pllm mer kept up his straight left-hand Jabs on Kelly’a mouth while ho would, by way of vanlety, swing his right on his damaged face with telling effect. It was very apparent to all prosent that Pllm mer had his man at his mercy, i nd could htt him when and where ho - pleased. This was tho softest kind of a mark lor Pllmmer and the bout waa so com pletely ono-slded' that many of tho ring veterans got up from their seats In dis gust and began to walk towards the doors. It was easy to be seen that It could not last more than another round unless Plknmer sa wdt to permit It. Round 3.—Pllmmer landed his left end was lightly countered. He then tabbed his left and right on Kelly’a bleeding nose. Pllmmer continued his tabhtng tac tics and soon had poor Kelly at his mer cy,, hitting him ot will, when and where ho liked. It wus plain to ho teen that KoUy was out-classed and after fighting Just one minute and thirty-five aeconda, the police a topped the fight and the ref eree awarded the bout to Pllmmer.

Tho waltor carries hid order to a lunn who Is known os the “dummy man’* nnd quietly repeats It to him. The dummy takes down on n slip tho number oC tho waltor, tho tlmo tho order wns given and tho Items o£ it. Alhthls la shorthand, but not tho shorthand written by tho giddy young thing who chows gum and can’t road her notes. Tho dummy man is the Inventor and patontoo of his own, which has its advantages, ovon if it doos make an * ordor look like a Chinos© laundry tloket. For instance, two short horizontal lines stand for a sirloin stoak. If there is a Llttio clrolo just above the llpca, it moans that tho man who govo the order is not going to call on his flancco and will toko onions on his steak. If tho circle stands at tho end of the lines, it means he wuuta mushrooms. Wlion the waiter has glvou tho ordor to tho dummy man, his work is temporarily ovor. It is tho dummy man who really starts tho machinery. Right bohlntl him stretch the great ranges manned by 20 oooks. Turning to thorn, the dummy man quietly oalls off the order in its different portions. There is a oook for eaoh depart* ment or seotion of the commissary, so the vegotablo port of tho order is turned ovor to tho vegotablo cook, tho fish to tho fish oook, tho stoaks go to tho broiler, wlillo tho gamo, fowl and roast meats arc dealt with by the carvor. When tho ordora havo been separately prepared, they nro turned over to the oh of, who inspects them carefully. If tbay pass muster, tho order goos on to tho dummy man, who chcoks it up by his rooord, gar nishes it, puts it on tho steam table to keep hot and. presses a button. This causes a drop bearing tho waiter's number to fall in the dining room and is tho waiter's no* tico that his ordor is ready. Peoplo gonorally supposo tho ebof to bo a busy cook working at tho rango with his crew of men. fcfcioh Is not the case. Tn tho modern rostaurant tho chef's an tiro duties are those of an overseer and disci* plinarlan. Btrango os it may aeon), behind tho scenes it would bo considered a less offense for a subordinate cook to send out a tough lobster or an undordono steak than to talk. Beyond the doors tho chef is absolute master and holds eaoh man to his work. Tho result speaks for itself. The entire kitchen of this mammoth res taurant runs llko clockwork, and at the busiest time, when there ure f>00 guests without waiting to be served, a man can speak at one ond of the great kitohon and be beard at tho othor.—Chicago Tribune. A Lesson In Tolegraphjr. Some tlmo ago a tourist stopped Into a postal telegraph office in ono of our coun try districts, and going up to tho counter wrote an address on a Jotter. Ho was about to leavo whon ho caught sight of a lady In charge, and lifting his hat bowed politely to hor. But the lady hud lofty ideas of her offi cial position and thus addrezaod tho de parting gentleman: “I must say It’s a pretty piece of Ira- pertlnenoe to como to this offico simply to scribble an addrus*." Tho Intruder courteously responded, saying that ho had hoped such n thing might bo permitted in extraordinary cir cumstances, but that if no person was to be admitted for such a purpose ho worf quite prepared to send a telegram. Ho then proceeded to fill up a form and handed it ovor to the lady, llllod up in the following manner: “Tho lady olerk at this office wantonly ignores every rule of civility." Tho lady was struck dumb when she road the message, which was addressed to tho secretary of the gcnoral postoffice and bore a well known namo. Tho gontloman obsorvod hor extreme confusion, and relenting quietly said: “I don't think I'll trouble you to send that telegram unloss you particularly wish, but I will express the hope that you will be a llttio mere careful ns to your language In tho future."—London Tit- Bits. Vhrsui From Scott and Others. In spite of Scott's continued popularity, few people remember that from “Old Mor tality" wo have “A tco of upturned faces," and Byxon is never thanked for “Flesh and blood can't bear it." Tho “most humorous and least exemplary of British parsons" is known to have thought "They order things bettor in France" and "God tempers the wind to the shorn Jamb," bat wo seldom crodlt him with “I saw the Iron enter into his soul." Yet that keen imago of grief, no often on our lips, may also be found In tbo “Sentimen tal Journey." Cowper is comparatively little read, tho immortal “John GiJpln" always excepted. Therefore we may bo forgiven if the sonreo of “Hand and glove" or “Her dear 600 friends" bas slipped our memories. Tho same may be said of Rogers’ "To know he? was to love her," Congrevo's “Married Jn haste and r<*p*rnt at leisure.’* Forquhar's "Over tho hills and far away" and Southey’s “March of Intellect." Sir Philip Sidney, who was poet, philosopher, and, best of all, hero, should share a bet ter fate. How many can tell that it was he who first said In English “God helps those who helps themselves?"—Cornhlil Magazine. ■ ■ Pasqulcr had a scolding wlfo and was accustomed to say that “a scold’s speech Is merely the exercise of her lungs and tho patience of all who hoar her." Hot to bo outdone by his wife, he sooldsd back again, and, os he said, had peace by means of constant war. EDUCATION OF THE HINDOO GIRL. Great Care Is Exercised In Training Her* For Housewifery. Tho greatest euro and onxloty of tho Hindoo mother is to bring up her daughter to home life nnd ninko hor a good house wife. When a girl is 7 years of ago, ho* mothor toachca her to cook and to clcua tho pots. Hindoos havo two kinds of washing. Ono is tho daily washing ot everyday apparel, for the oiothos aro changed every morning after bathing. l£very Hindoo must bathe boforo ho takes his meals. Religion requires that no food bo cooked before the person who cooks it lias bathed. A woman first gives a bath to hor children; then eho takes a bath hor- solf and thereafter goes to C09k. Tho clothes nro changed nnd washed ovory day. Thollttlo girl washes tho smaller olothca on a otono and hangs them for drying. Sho assists hor mothor in many small things; sho sweeps tho kitchen; shu fetohoa the utonclls; sho cuts nnd slices tho vege tables; sho pounds ond grinds tho spices; sho takes out tho Email pcbblos from tho rico nnd cleans It in water, and, in short, sho does all tho potty work, assisting her mother. If eho has an infant sister or brother, sho foods it and lulls It to sleep in the cradle. Sho gathers flowers and weaves them into wreaths, with whloh tho Hindoo womon adorn their hair.
