Burden, Smith &> Co. v NOTHING BDT AN EARTHQUAKE CAN DISLODGE THE SECURITIES An Attempt to Work tho Edna Brown Schamo for Nebraska Sufferers. Postmaster Price has received a letter from a party signing the name of J. H. Laughlln, Hancock. Iowa, enclosing a letter which the postmaster la asked to copy and Bend to three of his friends, with tho request that they in turn send three of their friends a copy and so on. The letter that the sender wants sent to three of each person’s friends receiv ing It, asks that each send ten cents to Laughlln at Hancock, Iowa, for the ben efit of the Nebraska sufferers. The plan la evidently tho same as that of Edna Brown of Illinois, tho only difference that Edna Brown wants stamps and Laughlln wants money. Tho letter speaks of the liberality of the Southern people and their readiness to respond to those in distress, and pictures the suffer ing In Nebraska as being far more ter rible than any one ever suspected. Laughlln does not give any references as to who he Is, nor does he offer any guarantee that the Nebraska sufferers will get the money when sent, therefore it would be very foolish on the part of anybody into whose hands one of the tters might fall, to send anything . Laughlln. If Laughlln should receive one-tenth as many responses as Edna Brown has re ceived it would he a very short while before ho would he ahto to count hie relief fund by the millions of dollars. Doubeless the same kind of letter sent to Postmaster Price has been sent to every postmaster In the South. _ .

Uespess of the Primitive Baptist church died here at 10 o’clock today, niter a lingering Illness. He was born ne.irVhoawstou, Upson county, Octo- nur 2, 1831, 'Wthtce he resided until 1852, In 'Which year he «radta-ted ®t the State University 'With high honors. Among hte fellow students were several who have since beooana men of promi nence Among them were Gordon, Nor wood, 'Hammond and others. Immediately upon leaving college he removed 'to Butler and begun tbe prac tice of law, continuing with success for several yoara, alter iwb'ch he went to Schley county, where he engaged ex- t(.naively In fruit growing and Arming. Ills country home it&cre was widely known for its refinement and Its own er’s Jioqp'tollty, and -within Its halls wore entertulnol nuny of the most noted 'men of lowers or puMilc Liltc By nature endowhd with a brilliant Intel lect. ho itook advantage of the retire ment of country life to -'.ricroaso from a well-stocked 'library his store of knowl edge, while the beat of morning news papers, together with a wide personal acquaintance .with public tmeo contrib uted to make him conversant with pub- Uo affairs. So high was tbe estimation In which ho was bold In tom section that his name was presented us a delegate to the constitutional convention of 1877, and although the honor wits unsought, ho was chvoted by an overwhelming ma jority. Hts influence tn that body was soon felt and he 'became a member and was a- moving spirit In the “committee of -twenty-six" ttaa-t did practically all the work of that convention. Immediately after the war he took great Interest 1n itho welfare of his al most destitute neighbors, and, being blessed with a comfortable share of wordly goods, nvjis able to do much for their relief. -Hts generosity in this re spect secured for him and enviable rep utation among these people, and to this day hts good deeds ore held In loving remembrance, while by many to whom he -was “a friend in need” his memory will be cherished as a sacred heritage. He was several times prominently mentioned in coondotlon with tbe seat in oongrctH from toe Thud district and though stramgy uggeft each time by his friends, he wotild never allow toe use of his name. While in Schley couuTy'ho entered th» ministry of the Primitive church and soon look high rank in his calling. About fifteen years ago bo returned to Butler and established tbe Gospel Mes senger, the official organ of bis church for toe South, and lits able writings as editor In chief were read with Interest throughout the Union. As a preacher he had no superior in b’s denomination, and It Is doubtful If his equal could be shown by any de nomination tn Goocgla.
