The sprinkler wires had In some way touch ed a heavily charged electric light wire and the great volume of super-heated air mingled with gases from varnish and baking wood w? aflame.

EATONTON. Ga., Dec. 14.—Every body In Georgia recognizes that Judge rank (Jenkins of Eatonton Is one of the strong men of the state. Stepping Into hla office today, he seemed willing for a chat, despite the fact that the great cotton slump caught him with some hales on hand. I regret my loss,” he said, “but If cotton hnd to tumble It were well It did so before our,people had Invested high-priced mules and costly labor for another year. Now they will re trench, and plant lens, for no farmer an pay the high prices and make cot ton at 7c." His face had worn a somewhat troubled mien, but brightening as if a happy thought hud Illuminated It, he suddenly chnnged the tenor of hls marks and said: “Why don’t you Ma con people go to work and push - for our next governor? We need Just such ns he In the gubernatorial chair, and I have picked him out aa tho man for the honor. Tho state needs him. hope your Macon people will do the people the favor of pushing into the gubernatorial chair."

Calhoun. CALHOUN. Oa.. Dec. 14.—Farmers are holding their cotton in the two ware house* here. Many Farmers In 8outh Georgia Un willing to Sail Now. HAWKINSVILLE. Oa., Dec. 14.— The appeal sent out by the fanners of Washington county on the cotton alt untlnn, and the actions taken by the cotton holders of Texas, Oklahoma, Indian Territory and other places haa met with high favor among the farm era of Pulaski county and this sur rounding country. Many of the leading representatives planters from all aetlons of thla coun try were here Saturday and Monday and the situation was freely discussed on the streets. Fully three-foutrh of the cotton raised around here has been sold at an average of 10 cents and when the price fell under 10 cents the market Ing was vltually discontinued without financial embarrassment either to tho merchant or to the farmer on account of the fact that the farmers have paid out of debt and have, so to speak, full sufficiency of ready cash with which to mnxe next year’s crop, and they declare that they will hold this cotton indefinitely rather thantsell far less than 10 cents per pound. Mr. G. W. Brown, one of this coun ty’s most prosperous planters, says that In hls Immediately section thfy have the unsold cotton scarcely housed good shelters with the exception some which is stored In the warehouses of Hawklnsvllle. He says that nine out of ten of his neighbors are !n fine financial condition nnd that they can hold what little cotton they have left all through next year nnd hardly feel It, and that they are not going to sell until they can get their price. Mr. Drown has sold 40 or 50 bales at‘ an average of 10 to 10 V4 cents. Mr. M. B. Simmons of Eastern Pu laskl, reports thnt hls section is in prosperous condition and thnt they are holding some cotton for a rise. "We have it well stored where It doesn’ cost us anything to keep It nnd we will keep it until It rots rather than sell It for less than 10 or 12 cents/ said Mr. Blmmona. Mr. Simmons says two of hls neigh bors have on hand almost their entrie crop but that a majority of them sold the bulk of It at a good price, and that they are truly independent of the sit uation. He sayr. they are taking steps to curtail next year’s 'crop and that they are ready to enter into any or ganisation with that object in view. Mr. M. C. Scoot of the upper edge Dodge county and who has made average of 11 hales of cotton and bushels of corn to the plow, says that some cotton 'Is being held in his sec tlon and that they will glndly Join any combination to curtail the next crop aa some of them have declared it their Intention already to plant 38 1-3 cent less cotton. He says they have made all arrangement to hold their cotton for better prices if It requires a year’s time. Mr. T. J. Meadows of Cary, a flour ishing agricultural locality In North ern Pulaakt. reports favorable and prosperous conditions there. Mr. Meadowa numbers among Pulaski’s MeVay at the head of this movement. It la no uncommon slaht now to see coal plied up near a log cabin door, wood be ing ocarce and coni much cheaper. Game Is plentiful In the mountains and on the river. A hunter caught two wild geese after wounding them, brought home and they have become domesticated and run with the other fowls.

N. writes: “In June, 1901, I lost my sense of hearing entirely. My hearing had been somewhat Impaired for several years, but not so much affected but that I could hold converse with my friends; but In June 1901. my sense of hearing left me so that I could hear no no sound whatever. I waa also troub led with rheumatic pains in my limbs, commenced taking Peruna and m^jiearingja restored as good as waa prior to June, 190L My rheumatic pains are all gone. I can not speak to high- ly of Peruna, anrl now when eighty years old can say it has invigorated my whole system. “I cannot but think, dear Doctor, that you must feel very thankful to tho AH-lovlng Father that you have been permitted to live, nnd by your skill be such a blessing oa you have been to suflering humanity."—J. N. Parker. In old nge the mucous membranes become thickened and partly lose their function. Peruna corrects all this by its speci fic operation on all the mucous mem branes of thebody.

Leander, pastor First Spiritual Society of Han Francisco, writes from 811 Turk street, San Fran cisco, Cal., as follows: "It it with pleasure that I give my endorsement of Peruna. My experience haa been very satisfactory from its use, and I do firmly believe that it is tho best known remedy for catarrh in all its different forms."—Chas Leander.
