The Farmers’ Alliance lias been merged
into the Farmers and Laborers' Union,
which now makes one of the strongest

principles declared are good, the aims

fta weak points. Let them be carefully

•Da. J. O. A. Clark of this city baa
done a good work in givings sketch of
the lete Dr. A. T. Maun of the North
. Georgia conference. No one knew Dr.
Mann better; none more competent to
give an estimate of his character and la
bors. Whatever Dr. Clark writes is ad
mirably written, clear, forcible. In this
little work both heart and head were en
gaged and oftentimes it is hard to deter
mine which predominates. It is a loving
tribute to a meet lovable man. Dr. Mann
bad many admirers all over Georgia,
but he never had a more affectionate
friend and brother than Dr. Clark. Tho
book has an excellent steel portrait of tho
sainted dead. The hook may be hail
from the author, Macon, Ga., or from
the booksellers.
Combination vs. Inventions.
The greatest trouble tho pisjple have
about new inventions and great discov
eries, says the Farm and Fireside, is to
readily obtain the uso of them at any
thing like a comparatively moderate
cool Combinations of men and capital
control telegraphs, telephones, electric
lights, electric railways, natural gas
etc., and furnish them to the (ample at
just enough less the cost of tho things
they supersede to induce the public to
use them. It is true the public nays 1o>b
for electric light than for illuminating
gaA and natural gas is cheaper than coal,
mod the people an* to much better off but
they do not begin to get them at the price
they ought to. 1„ other words, the
prevented trom realizing the'full
benefits of Inventions snd discoveries as
long as it is possible for capitalists to
help it. Competition will reduce the
coot to the public in time, if it u not
Strang h 4 by combination. These things
could be furnished to the public at much
less cost and still pay a reasonable inter-
cat on the capital invested.

The Jlerclinnt Farmer*
A contribution to the Ohio Farmerset*
this question in the following odors:
The city merchant on going into farm
ing is apt to Ik* too lilieral in his expen
ditures. He hns a taste for the beautiful,
naturally inculcated by city life. The
appearance of tho farm buildings docs
suit his tasto. An architect with a troop
of mechanic's is brought from the city, at
city price*! to make improvements which
afterwords turnout to he no improve
ments nt nil, except in the proprietor’s
fancy.
If tho farm hns tom purchased at its
full market value, and a few thousands
added by way of decorations without
any Addition to its productiveness, the
first stop—and a long pno—has been
tnken against its becoming renraneintiae.
The result is that in a few years, find
ing th? outlay larger than the income,
the farm is sold for loss than its originnl
cost, and the proprietor, in disgust, re
moves hack to the city completely cured
of tho farming mania. There are
others who succeed better; they bring
with them abetter system of economy;
they expend liberally in fertilizersthat
will Increase tin* productiveness of tho
soil; convert all the rubbish of the farm
into manure by composting it with lime,
swamp mud,'and other materials col
lected for tho purpose; asnooiate finely
with their neighbor* and discuss with
thorn them the most approved rotation*
of crops to keep up tho fertility of tho
soii, auu soii to tiie best advantage in tho
neighboring markets. They forego
ornamental appendages .to the build
ings until they bate demonstrated that
"farming wili pay.” Then they can afv
ford to turn their attention to the beau
tiful, and expend largely of the profits
of the farm for that purpose. Tho
foundation of successful farming lias
been laid, and such improvements may
be added to make home sd| attractive
that sons and daughters will not think
of leaving it for city life.
The History or .txtrll** Xlrrrdliig,
From the Kansas City Time*.
The story of AxtcU’s breeding and
training is all fairylike. Out of an un
tried dam and by nil untried sire, devel
oped and driven by a comparatively poor
young man whose experience is even
now hardly even to that of a practiced
amateur, the history of tho champion
ktallion is more roman tic than tho inven
tions about the (Jodolphin Arabian.
Analyzed, Axtell’s pedigree justifies
his HiiccctMand strengthens the fores
of tho proverb that blood will tell.
Ho urites the two great streams
that 1 lowed from Messenger, tho
thoroughbred founder of the staying
trotter. Action and style has appar
ently reached the same perfection in
him it readied in Maud 8,, and all that
can be improved In strength and ambi
tion. It i* much to be hoped thut the
strain upon him has not stypped his pow
ers for if his perfect style could be rein
forced In the next or tho second gener
ation with a well-adjusted, fresh ralmion
of tho atoutest snd most ambitious thor
oughbred blood, the two-minute mark
ought to bewithiu the capacity of his
progeny. Axtell’s courage is undoubted,
but cold blood has gone into the trotter’s
veins and no cold-hloodsd horsj has the
pure thoroughbred’s speed sustaining
power. Axtell’s and Sunni's exhibitions
encourage tho American to believe his
favoriteDreed of horses capable of trot
ting a mile in two minutes.
.Ill Owlug lo the Telephone.
In Europe the telephone as a dii
disseminator is under discussion. __
Frenchman lias discovered a new dis
order termed "aural overpressure,”
caused by the constant strain of the
auditory apparatus in shouting through
tho telephone. In some cases the tink
ling of the hell has affected tho ears of
persons tho same way that inflamed eyes
cannot bsor the light. The patients suf
fered from nervous excitability, with
buzzing noises in th* car, giddiness and
neuralgic pain*. Beys the London Med
ical Journal: "Tho victims of 'telephono
tinnitus,' if we may so. baptize this
latest addition to tho ills that flesh is heir
to, seem all to be of markedly nervous
organization, and the moral may be
drawn that such persons should not use
the telephone. Mr. Edison has already
done something to increase the plague
of 'nerves' which afflicts our generation,
and, if his brilliant career as an inventor
is not cut short, there can b* little doubt
that he w ill do yet more,”
James O, Illalna III.
A New* Ycrk letter to the Boston
Transcript, speaking of the deserted
Mrs. James O. Blaine. Jr., and her in
fant son, says: "This fO-mooths-old
baby, by the way, is the living image of
lu* grandfather.’ His eyes now are as
keen in their expression and his aeeecli is
mi iKnuviuua, mat muss wuu ikmi mm
stand amazed. James O. Blaine ILL
docs not talk 'baby talk.’ Qe speaks as
distinctly os a child of 0 and with much
more knowledge of the world than some
children of that age. Any right-minded
grandparent* would be proud of such a
clever little fsUow. But what can oue
expect of grandparent* if his own father
turns away when he msets him on the
street. The story that young Mrs.
Blaine is very ill is no newspaper sensa
tion. I doubt if she will ever bo w%ll
enough to go upon the stage."

This Morning I was talking with one
of Washingtons moet distinguished citi
zen* and Detective Burns of Philadel
phia, says Towle in a letter to the Boston
Traveller. The citizen said, while dis
cussing the subject of character* in
general: "I never hud but one expe
rience with a distinguished thief. It
hapi>ened in this way: S •vend years
ago, while in Philadelphia, 1 happened
to be introduced to a man whose name
has escaped me. 1 did not meet him for
three years. One day, whilo sitting in
my oflice, a nicely dressed fellow came
in and addretued me by name. Ho re
called the fact of the introduction, And
asked me to do him a favor, ta., ing: 'If
you are well acquainted with any of the
officials of the PenmylvanLi railroad I
wish you would help me to recover my
satchel and overcoat, which have been
left in the Southern train, and are now-
on their way to Kiclimmd. 1 have busi
ness that requires my attention for an
hour or two, when I shall go to Balti
more. I wish you would see that they
me recovered and tent to an adUre.V,’
which he gave me. I went down to the
Pennsyluania station and on iny solicita
tion tho offic ial* telegraphed to Richmond
nnd the overcoat mi satchel were sent to
Baltimore. 1 have never seen tho man
siuco, but I have learned that my guest
was a wan whose professional name b
Mysterious Jimmy, one of the smartest
bank burglars iu the country. It ap
pears that ho was on his way from rich-
delphia to Richmond. When the train
got to Washington Detective Mc-
Dcvitt entered tho car end
Jimmy was at the opposite
end. The burglar at ouce recognized
him and left the train without McL evitt’s
knowledge. His vuli*.e and overcoat
went oji to Richmond, ns I have said.
Tho valise contained a full set of bur
glar’s tools, which a few days afterward
he used in robbing a national bank at
Richmond.”
ftetective Burns broke in at this point
by saying; "1 havo hud considerable
experience with My»tericu* Jiuimv.
There is no more experienced bark
breaker in this country. He Iras been a
criminal all his iitc, but owing to his
wonderful shrawdne s we have nov<r

peeped into their bod-room and saw that
they wero fast asleep.
"I then wont out to the road in front
of the house to see if anybody was com
ing, and, finding the coast dear, I went
to the coin crib nnd got the club, which
was a part of a flail, and then went into
the house softly and put the club in my
iKsl-room and set it down. 1 then took
my father's rifle, which was always hung
up in my room loaded, and stepped out
of my bed-room around to father's, and.
hi* door being open, 1 put the gun to hi*
face and fired.
'*1 immediately went hack for my
club, knowing that 1 would not have
time to load tho gyn. I got the club,
and w hen I got bac k to the doer mother
was upon the floor, and Rtooprd over
doing something. I thought perhaps she
was looking nt father, who lay in the
front side of the bed. I struck her on
tho head os she wa* stooping, and 6hc
straightened up and fell backward on the
bed and over father.
i then got up on the bed and struck
her a great many times on the head until
1 thought she was dead. Then 1 heard
father make a noise in hi* throat and I
struck him two blows on tho head that
smashed tho skull. 1 then took tho baby
and hitched up the horse and started for
grandpa's. Nobody helted me in any
way nor told mo to kill them. I did it
all alone."
Tho boy is n very intelligent litt’e fel
low, weighing seventy-three pounds,
and is very frail looking.
F.NTEnrciINK OF WORTH.
That County Frrpsrlns a Fine F.x-
tilllt fur the Fair—The Central’*
Hist* Hates.
Ty Ty, Oct. 21,—[Special]—Tho ex
hibits for the fuir aro beginning to coino
in at a lively rate. Tho car to cany tho
display to Macon is expected to-morrow,
when it will be loaded and sent forward,
and will nnivo in Macon Tuesday. Sec
retary Wilson will accompany the car,
to arrange the exhibit on tho grounds,
snd will probahlv have as an assistant
Mr. T. L. Kitchinga.
There have already been tagged here
ready for shipment several packages, em
bracing rye, cats, corn, potatoes, syrup,
rice, and many other thing* too numer
ous to mention, and to-inorrow morning
the list will ho greatly enlarged, as the
people generally did not know that the
products were to bo received until Mon-
ft is said that Mr., J. G. McPhaul at
Fowlen wilt wili have a huif cur load iu
his individual exhibit, but of course
everything goes m the county display.
One man here says he has sixty cars of
corn tlist weigh seventy pounds. An
other has some very fine sugar-cane that
will go into the contest for that $30 spe
cial p.rminm.
1 have not os yet learned the rates over
the Q.'crgia Southern and Florida rail
road, but th^ rate on the Cciitral is going
to bar a great many that Would otherwise
swell tho crowd ut Central City Park.
The rate has been claimed all the whilo
to be the lowest that bad ever been given,
and they are higher than were offered to
the Atlanta show. It is hoped tliat the
Georgia Southern and Florida will come
to the county's relief and gite lower
ratoa. as the mail that makes tho lowest
rates will certainly get the traffic from
this section. “

reer. Uis first wifedied in giving birth to a
girl baby. Hs afterwards married hL*
wife's slater, who also died in the courso
of a .year ju*t after having born to her a
girl baby. Milhr was nn industrious
fellow, nnd his father-in-law, a close-
fisttd dairyman, brought about a mar-
risgo between Miller and a third daugh
ter, In three years a girl baby was born,
snd the third wife and sLter died, The
fsthcr-in-law had died tho year before,
and the mother, who was s treble moth
er-in-law to Miller, and he mourned the
loss of their (loud together. A mutual
liking struck up, tho result being that
mother-in-law and son-in-law Miller
come husband and wife.
Their marriage was a happy ono for
almost three years. Then Mrs. Miller
No. 4 gave birth to a girl baby, dying
within lets turn ten days. After the

montlif. Uis four daughters, Lorn un
der suck peculiar circumstance*, are still

Washington, D. C«, OcL 21.—Senator
Random of North Carolina hs* secured
from the Navy Department the services
of the Marino Band at the celebratiou of
ths centennial of the ratification of tho
Federal constitution, wH.h will take
place on Nov, 21 at Fayettevill, N.
C. The War Dtq»arUi!ciit has sho agreed
to lend flags and bunting for the celebra
tion. i
Trie fact that Jefferson Davis is an
nounced to ,be thero on Iil* progress
through the Mouth has stirred some
republican partisans to o*k why the
Marine Band nnd flags should havo U on
promised by the Secretaries of the Navy
and Wur. Attention is drawn to the
fact that Secretory Tiocy recently re
fused to jh r nit the Marine Band (o go to
FhUadelphia. The sccretarr said to-duv
that tne Marine Hand wus going to
Fayetteville because that was a state
occasion, while the Philadelphia cele

New Yona, Oct. tl.—The Sun’s cotton review
says:
Futures opened slightly lower and further de
clined until JAnusry .options touched IW. Then
came a small recovery on * deinsnd to cover
contracts, but f eih selling prompted by unduly
favorohje weather South, Increasing stocks In

CHICAGO ’CHANGE.
Dally Itrvlew of speculation In Grain
and Provision Market,
Chicago, Oct. St.—In whfat there was rather a
large trading In $ speculative way nod the mar
ket ruled weak and lower.
A good speculative trade wsa witness'd In the
com market to-day and the feeling developed
won lor, lower prices prevailing generally. The
cbh f weakening Influence was the free offerings
by a prominent local speculator, whose sales
pruhably reached in the neighborhood of 1.800,0*)
buslie!*, chiefly May and November. Very good
demnn 1 exists for May.
The mess pork market attracted very little at
tention. Offerings were comparatiwt'. Mgbt, and
the demand was limited, being confined to filling
for shorts. Prices exhibited very little change.
In lard mote strength was developed, but trad
ing w a* only moderate. The belief prevails that
tho market is over sold for October delivery, and
inquiry in a quiet way tended to confirm It. lYices
w ere advanced % cent in October, while other de-
liverb's were strong st V° 8 cent* advance.
In short ribs trading was somewhat limited,
and the feeling was somewhat easier. Prices
ruled about cents lower, and the market
closed quiet.
MAY 1’OIIK STOCK BOARD.
Clinrncter nnd Extent of Ilnstneas
Done In Mated Slocks Yesterday.
New Yore, Oct. H.-The stock market was ac
tive but decidedly weak to-day, snd decline was
very material, reaching all portions of the list,
though trusts. Grangers and coal stocks were the
principal sufferers. A variety of eauses contri
buted to this, though persistent attacks of the
bean under cover of high rates for money were
tho most effective in bringing about a downward
movement. To aid them thl* morning there wore
not only th resigned npproitiou to the sugar trust
by Ppreckles, but the publication of stntlxthw of
coal trading expected for a portion of the year,
nnd a later decrease In the earnings of Grangers,
now cut* In rates by Burlington, and some oppo
sition to the Atchison plan, w hich has developed
in I-ondon, wero also unfavorable factors. Bears,
a- slated by the influence of traders, attacked the
market at the opening, paying special attention
to augur, cotton oil and other*, and without any
rr.lly of importance throughout the day, the
market clowvl quiet but heavy at something
t*-tter than the lowpst prices. The entire active
