Roligiou* Herald, Richmond, Va.
We have never uuite understood why
some of the brightest and best of our
Virginians got away from us when they
were young, and somehow we have
never been able to bring them back.
One of those for whose presence and
j companionship this particular writer
J has often longed is J. S. Hardaway.
As bright as a new dollar and as mod-
'■ est as a girl, he has won golden opin-
j ions from all sorts of people, but his
career has been mostly outside of his
| native State. He is now pastor in the
j flourishing and attractive town of
Newnan, Ga. Within recent weeks
special meetings have been held in his
! church, led by Rev. R. D. Haymore,
j well-known and greatly beloved in Vir-
[ ginia. Hardaway says of him: “He
has helped me in two meetings, and
! we have all learned to love him dearly.
I Of all the preachers I have ever
known, he impresses me as having had
a divine call to preach most strongly.
His confidence in the word of God is
implicit, and his reading of the word
publicly is a revelation as to the power
of the word of God when properly read
before congregations. He speaks with
tenderness and unction when lie
preaches. He does not shun to declare
the whole counsel of God, but does so
tactfully and so tenderly as to give no
offense to those who differ. He has the
fire of a young man, with the prudence
of an old man. People hear him glad
ly, and the word of God as preached by
him impresses and reaches the heart.
1 wonder at his power and feel that he
is indeed a living example of a man
called to preach by the Spirit of God.
After forty years in the pastorate he
now goes out occasionally in meetings,
and ’his bow still abides in strength.’
Down here in Newnan the old Herald
is known and loved, and there are some
to whom the name of Old Virginia
brings up the dearest memories and
sweetest asociations of life. Upon both
be blessings manifold!”
Chatham Will Send Big Delegation to
Brown’s Inaugural.
Savannah, Ga., June 2. At no time
heretofore has the representation from
Savannah to the inauguration of a
Georgia Governor been as large as the
one that will attend the inauguration
of Gov.-elect Jos. M. Brown. At the
meeting of the Chatham County Joe
Brown Club, held here last night, a
movement was started to get every
member of the club, if possible, to
make the trip.
A special train will be chartered to
make the trip, and Savannah’s delega
tion will take Atlanta by storm on
June 26. Savannah’s consistent foster
ing and advancing tne candidacy of the
Governor-to-be is well known, and the
city expects to further show its faith

A Thrilling Rescue.
How Bert R. Lean, of Cheny, Wash.,
was saved from a frightful death is a
Btory to thrill the world. "A hard
cold,” he writes, “brought on a des
perate lung trouble that baffled an ex
pert doctor here. Then 1 paid Sill to
$15 a V.sit to a lung specialist in Spo
kane, who did not help me. Then 1
went to California, but without bene
fit. At Iasi 1 used Dr. King's New
Discovery, which completely cured me
and now I am as well as ever.” For
lung trouble, bronchitis, coughs and
colds, asthma, croup and whooping
cough it is supreme. 50c. and $1. Trial

gists.
farm Wednesday morning and captured
Sant Trample, a negro wanted in Ala
bama on a pretty serious charge, there
being a $50 reward offered for his ar
rest. The sheriff is expected to come
for him to-morrow. Mr. Entreken and
Mr. Brooks approached the negro as
fishermen, with a lot of fishing canes
in their hands, and had him under ar
rest before he even knew that they
were officers.
Women Who Are Envied.
Those attractive women who are
lovely in face, form and temper are the
envy of many, who might he like
them. A weak, sickly woman will be
nervous and irritable. Constipation or
kidney poisons show in pimples,
blotches, skin eruptions and a wretched
complexion. For all such Electric Bit
ters work wonders. They regulate
stomach, liver and kidneys, purify the
blood; give strong nerves, bright eyes,
pure breath, smooth, velvety skin,
lovely complexion. Many charming
women owe their heolt.h and beauty to
them ; 50c. at all druggists.

* His Children.
Washington, June 1.—If the authori
ties find it possible to bring about a
strict enforcement of the law there
will be no more white bread after June
1. Under a new statute it will be un
lawful to sell flour that has been
bleached. A provision of the pure food
law prohibits the practice. The reason
for the prohibitive clause is that flour
is deteriorated by the bleaching pro
cess. Both the flavor and nutritive
qualities are impaired. How the de
mand for flour that would make bread
of almost chalky whiteness grew, would
be hard to explain. It developed as
other fads develop, and the stomach
bore an added burden in order that the
fad of the eye might be gratified.

house Merger.
Atlanta, Ga.. June 1. A hundred or
more representative members of the
Farmers’ Union met at the capitol to
day for the purpose of perfecting the
organization of the Union Consolidated
Warehouse Company, in which it is
proposed to combine practically all the
cotton warehouses of the State. Pres

—-A newspaper is in no sense an ob
ject of charity. It earns twice over
every dollar it receives, and it is sec
ond to no enterprise in contributing to
the upbuilding of a community. Its
patrons reap far more benefits from its
pages than its publishers, and in call
ing for the support of the community
in which it is published, it asks for no
more than in all fairness belongs to it,

Candy Kitchen
Will be open to the public next week.
A $1 box of high-grade chocolates will

Georgia, and all we ask is that the
public help us to do it.
To begin with, we. will give two hun

contribution to the building iund of the
First Methodist church. These checks
will be given on June 21.
Attractive souvenirs will he given

Unusual Accident to Train.
The suggestion is being made that
Georgia ought to have a Lieutenant-
Governor. We heHrtil.v indorse this
proposition. There is no reason why
it should entail any expense on the
State, ns he could receive the salary
that the President of the Senate row
receives, and no more—unless, through
the death or removal of the Governor,
he should fill the vacancy, in which
event he would receive the Governor's
salary.—Cordele Rambler.
—In a saw-mill on a portion of the
battle field at Spottsylvama Court
House. Va., a few days ago the saw
came in contact with a solid cannon
shot, which had been fired into a large
pine tree, evidently on the day ot the
battle. May 12, 1S64. The saw was
shattered into atoms and the mill
wrecked.

Montgomery. Ala., June 1.—Twelve
passengers on a Western of Alabama
train to-night received painful, but nt t
serious cuts, in a most peculiar manner
while en route from Montgomery to
Selma.
The train was running at a fast clip
when a tree alongside of the track be
gan falling just as the engine was op
posite it. The engineer saw the dan
ger and quickly shut off steam, and the
entire train passed before the tree
struck the track. Limbs projected,
however, into the coaches, shattering
the glass in every window on the left
side of the two rear coaches, and near
ly every passenger siting on that side
sustained cuts from the particles of
broken glass.
Immediately after the accident the
train was brought to a stop, and the
other passengers assisted in bandaging
up the injuries received by their less
fortunate companions.
You can’t reconcile a woman to gray
hairs even by telling her how beautiful
they make her look, but you can get
mighty popular with her.
