We extend to Brother Brewer with our own the simpathies of all the community. There is a strange disease among the cattle of Athens. When a cow |is stricken she only lives a few min 1 utes v Caesar is Sick. “Imperial Caesar dead and turned to clay” is a story not only of the past, but a prediction for the future. The news now comes from Ger many that the'‘young emperor shows signs of throat trouble similar to those manife -ted by his father just before the cancerous development which caused his death. Another story is that the emperor is growing very eccentric. Like the mad king of Bavaria, he takes long and unexpected trips in every direc tion. He is also becoming more ex acting in small matters, demanding the most devoted obedience from everybody. Naturally, all this causes talk,, and people are now convinced that the war lord, as he styles himself, is sick. The and ath of the emperor at this stage of his career would perhaps materially affect the destiny of Eu rode. During his short reign, and especially since lie drove Bismarck from power, William has proved him self a monarch whose clear head, dauntless courage and strong will can not fail to leave a marked impress upon the age. In his way lie is a re former. He has undertaken the task of smashing the socialist, and at the same time he Ims boldly announced his intention of pntti g some of their leading ideas into practical operation. Under his rule the military spirit of his people lias been strengthened, Germany has been centralized to the fast limit, and the old doctrine of the divine right of k > gs has been re asserted with tremendous force But all the Ctesars of the world iiave been sick men—Julias, Alexan der, Napolcun, and now young Wil liam. The first had fits, .the second was a drunkard, the third was au ep iluptie, and lost the decisive battle of Waterloo because the cancer in his atom ache made him unable to plan and act at the critical moment, and the fourth and last of these lords of wnr is in a fair way to follow the others. Perhaps it is just as well. Germa ny is too powerful and enlightened to depend upon any one man. When her emperor leaves the stage Lis sue censor will appear, an! the country wd! probably drift in tho direction of democracy. When Ciesar is sick the people grow stronger, and when he dies thep assort their right to rule.— Atlanta Constitution. Parents should send their children to school during the five months of the public term. A little education is better than none at all. If yon leave your child in this cold world with an education it will be a great legacy to him.—Crawford Herald. I)r. Talmadgo wiJl preach the commencement sermon at Emory College, and Hon. T. G.
