A Farmer'. Disappointment.
Mr. D. W. Everett, who lives about
two miles from town on the Social Cir
cle road, planted eight acres in cotton
this year after putting 1,000 pounds of
guano on it, and expected to mako a
bale of cotton to every two acres. A
fine stand of cotton camo up, and on

A letter received in this ciiy yester
day brines the sad information of a
singular ileathwhich rocenUy oconrrcd
at Crescent City, Fla. About six years
ago Mr. James L. Manll went from
Troup county to live In Florida. A few

Storm, and bis family were standing

clouds. While thus engaged a flash of

Views of a South Ckor.U Sdttor on Can
oidat.e From This n.ct on.
It is, in onr opinion, rather early to
r..inmeiiee discussing tho next guber
natorial race, bnt as the subject has
Peon broached, we wish to say a word
nr two. If Macon pats forth two can
didates for gubernatorial honors she will
again make it impossible for South
Georgia to name or nominate the ran-
didate in the next convenUon. It is
well known fact that, in the last two
three gubernatorial conventions, tho
Hon. A. 0. Bacon proved to be the
strongest candidate supported by tho
delegates from this section of the State,
sad.'Wd the names of the other candi
dates from our section withdrawn at
tin-proper time, he would have been
elected Governor long ago. Mr. Bacon
has lost nothing by defeat, lie is to
day the strongest man before the peo
ple (or gutiematorial honors, but if
Southern Georgia goes into the next
convention supporting two or threo
candidates, his chances for nomination
sill la- extremely doubtful.—Uawkint-

A Suspicious D.ath■
Two negro raftsmen on tho Flint
river, who had been engaged in rafting
lumber fifteen miles below Bainbridge,
went to town and reported that a negro
named Gary, also a raftsman, had been
drowned while attempting to swim
across tho river. This was on Wednes
day of last week. Several days after-
waid tho body of Gary was found by
some gentlemen near the spot spoken
of by the raftsmen. There was a deep
hole in the back of the head, and now
tho drowning story is not believed and
arrests may follow.
A Pupcr Raised on Butte-milk.
We have been experimenting with
Col. Wardlaw’s puppy and buttermilk.
He haa a head tike a cub, complexion
of a mole, body like a frog, no tail, ex
pression of a young African, and barks
with his eyes closed. Well, we fed him
milk till he measured two inches
more in breadth than length; turned
him on his back, and he lay shivering
like he had jim-jams fifteen minutes;
we turned him on his bow-legs again,
and he raised a bark and whined so
iltifnl that we had to exercise him in a
lurry to keep him from dying. Just
start towards him with buttermilk,
and he will keel over.—Jeffenon Her

Columbu. 8oard of Trad*.
At tbo annual meeting of tho Board
of Trade, of Columbus Thursday, the
following officers wero elected: Pres
ident, J. Woolfolk; first vice-presi
dent, C. E. Iloclistrnsser; second vice-
president, J. B. Slade; third vice-
president, J. K. Orr; fourth vice-presi
dent, 0. S. Jordan; secretary, E. L.
Wells. A very interesting report was
looking to securing a public building
in tho city, and also for tho free deliv
ery systom. Tho figures introduced
show the city to bo a growing and pro
gressive one, and it comes within the
scope of tboso cities entitled to the
advantagesasked.
A Rliodr Affair.
We learn that a terrible cutting af
fray took placo a few nights ago, on
tho river between two negro men, Jeff
Johnson and Henry Brown, about a
negro woman, with whom he was in
love. They met by agreement, by
themselves after dark and fought with
clasp knives, and hacked one another,
until weak from loss of blood, both
toll and expired on the river bank. We
could not learn tho full particulars, as
the colored pcoplo aro very reticent
about tho affair, anil tho gentleman
says they are trying to hush it up.—
America, Republican.
A lummtr Sal* of Cotton,
Few towns the size of Greeniboro
can boast of being tho scene, almost in
midsummer, of a cotton transaction
footing up to one hundred bales. Tho
sale was effected by Col. J. N. Armor
and W. F. Armor, two of Greene coun
ty’s most successful and progressive
farmers. In addition to our borne buy
ers wo noticed Messrs. E. A. Veazey,
of Veazey; It. Tappan, ot Whito
Plains; and E. T. Yarbrough, of Au
gusta. Bo large a solo at this season
of the year naturally excited some in
terest, and the bidding was spirited.
Mr. Yarbrongh succeeded in securing
the lot, paying 10?. cents for 30 bales,
and 10 5-10 for 70 bales.—Greenebori

And so my wife cameout. Imagine,
It’s only a ghost story. Jim Pace j then, her astonUlunet.
told it one dark night to a little crowd
that gathered in tho round house.
Jim’sa veteran of tlie rail. He was 73
last week, and has pulled a throttle as
many times as any living man. "How
he used to make old Six walk,’’ is the
common expression wherever Jim’s
nnmo is mentioned in a crowd. He
loved the engine better than anything
else in tho world, and it nearly broke
his honest heart to give her up. Jim
never had an accident, bnt that wasn’t
his “fault," he id ways said. “It
wasn't mo that missed ’em. It wuz ole
Six. She wouldn't ever go into the
back end of a train o’ tho blackest
night an’ all lights out. You couldn’t
drive her. Couldn’t git 'er nigh ’er
broken bridge or trestle or washout."
Jim never got any further with his
explanation until that night at tlie
round house, when some of the boys
begged him to tell them why old Six
wouldn’t get into trouble.
“Ab I’ve quit the track, boys,” lie
began, “I don’t min’tollin’ yer just
why. Reckon y’ all know I took to
firin’ with Dave Griffin, an’ all I know
abootsr m(Im J- leant 'tom him.
He was like tr father ter me, an’ when
he died I lost the best frin’ a lone boy
ever had. Lost, did I say 7 No notlost,

“Ho looked out into the night and
tho little audience waited for him to
Uni'll the st-mcme. Hut lie went on

"I worked mighty hard an’ faithful,
butj wuz ’nolo man when they ginune
theiiest engine on tho road. You've
all heard of ole Six 7 She's scrap iron
ten year ago. I had ran along for er
good many years ‘thout er accident of

ole Six carried herself. Well, one
night—it's tho darkest night I ever
saw; the moon an’ stars seemed as if
they’d gone out for good, an’ tho black,

that yer could feel ’em as yer ploughed

Llghtnin’ every minute an’ less split
the darkness on all sides, an’ tlie

tlo an’ pulled her wido open. Ole

In the middle of the veranda stood
our breakfast table: and all the rest of
the space, as well as the railings nndj
the steps were covered with an im
mense company of monkeys, as grave
as possible ami ns motionless nnd si
lent ns if they were Muffed. Only
their eyes kept blinking, anil their lit
tle round cars kept twitching. Laugh
ing heartily, nt which the monkeys on
ly looked all the graver, my wife sat
down.
“Will they eat anything?" asked
she.
“Try them,” I said.
So slio then picked up a biscuit and
threw it among the company.
Three hundred monkeys jumped up
in tlie air like one, and just for one
instant there was a riot that defied de
scription. Tlie next instant every
monkey was sitting in its place as sol
emn nnd serious as if it find never
moved. Only their eyes winked and
their ears twitched.
My wife threw; them another biscuit
and again the riot, and then another
and another. But, at length, we had
given away all that we had to give,
and got up to go. The monkeys at
once rose, every monkey on tlio veran
da, and advancing gravely to tho steps
walked down them in a solemn proces
sion, old and young together, and dis
persed for tlie day’s occupation.
SOR.KICHI'S MUSCLE.
H. Lilts th« 180-Pound Club El.hteen
Tim#* and Beal. Captain Dal*.
X. Y. Sun.
Captain James C. Daly, the Irish
American athlete, sauntered Into tho
Police Gazette office yesterday after
noon with a big roll of bills in his
pocket to make a match with Emil
Voss, the German Hercnles, for $250,
to lift U, K. Fox’s big 150-pound club
more times than Voss. Voss didn't
come in, bnt Matsada Sorakichi did,
and lie had a lot of greenbacks with
hirj&too.
“You put the club up six time’s the
other day, I hear,” Sorakiclii said,
with a twinkleJn his eye.
“Yes, I did,’ retorted Daly, “and
’m going to bet $500 on tho outside that
beat Voss.”
“Well, It's something new to mo,”
the Jap continued, “but I’ll bet $10
that I can put it up ten times myself.’’
Capt. Daly smiled incredulously, and
said, “I’ll liavo to go vou.Mat.”
The Jap stripped off his outer cloth-
ing, and walked around tho club
thoughtfully. It U four feet high and
nearly two feet in diameter, nnd built
purposely to teaso heavy lifters. Tlie
Jap bent himself like a crescent sud
denly, and, seizing tho handle with
one hand and eliding tho other under
the bottom, drew himself up straight
slowly, and elevated tho huge thing
eleven times. Then he stood it on the
ground and claimed $10.
But Cspt. Daly didn’t let him have
it. “I thought youwere fooling, Mat,”
ho said; “you didn’t put up the
money.”
Tho Jnp wiped the perspiration from
his blow, counted out $10 from his roll
of greenbacks aud slipped it into Hard-
tog’s fist.
“Now, the money's np anyhow,’
tlie Jap said, “anu I bet you I can
beat you lifting that club,”
Daly put up n $10 note, too, peeled
off hla clothes, and hoisted tlio tre
mendous club fourteen times.
Spectators who had been invited
watched him with open mouths. He
had more than doubled tho highest
previous record.
“That’s pretty good,” tho Jap said,
but watch mo ’’ Ho rushed at the
club just as bo rushes against his ad
versary In a wrestling boat, anil had
the club to tlio air in a twinkling.
Then be sent it up deliberately cign
teen successive times, closed tils hand
npon the stake money, and smiled de
lightedly.
“That’s the most marvellous exhibi'
tlon I ever saw,” Harding said os ho
shook hands with tlie Jap. Capt. Daly
said nothing. He put on his clothes
and walked out into tho open air to
think out how tho Jap managed to ac
complish tho feat.

A Very Amusing 8o«n« nt a Houss In ths
Junglss of India.
Exchange.
An English gentleman who lived in
India daring his early life tells sn
amusing story of some pranks played
by monkeys. They were almost os
tame and playful as kittens about his
home, und there were a great number
of them. He says:
I was married in India, and engaged
for our home s house fourteen miles or
so from any other habitation of white
men. On the morning of our arrival
my wife went in to change her travel
ing dress, while the servanta laid
breakfast on tho veranda over-looking
the river. At the clatter of the plates
there began to come down from the big
tree that overshaded tlio house, and up
the trees that grew in tho ravine lie-
hind it, from the house roof itself,
from evenrwhere. a multitude of sol
emn monkeys. They cams up singly
and to coaples and to families, and
took their places without noise or fuss
on the veramla, and sat there like ai
audience waiting for an entertainment
to commence. And when everything
was ready, the breakfast all laid, the
monkeys all —sled, I want is to
my wile.

THRIE-CARO MONTS.
A Farmer Who Thought He Had tha’’Ladr
Ci-ro" Marked Lo.lr a .1,300.
A Worcester special says: Hiram
P. IScmis, tax collector, a prominent
church member and farmer to the
neighboring villago of Paxton, was vic
timized by three-card monte men to
day. So. 1 appeared with a team
representing himself aa a former
cashier to s Worcester hank, now an
advertising agent, who wanted to ne
gotiate far tho erection of signs on the
farmer’s land. While they were talk
ing No. 3 appeared on foot and joined in
the conversation, representing himself
to he a drover. He told bow he lost $400
at Brighton the other day at a gamo he
didn’t know, but illustrated with three
cards. No. 1 mado several bet., and
every time picked the "lady card,” aH
tho farmer called it Suddenly the
cashier tore off the corner ol the lady
card, calling the farmer's attention tol
tlie marking. Then another wager was
proposed, thia time for $3,000, tlie dro
ver producing the money. The cashier
bad only $1,500, bnt the farmer wonld
make up the balance if they would
wait until he could come to the city.
Sy the caahier brought the farmer to
the city, the amount was drawn from
batik, and on tho return the drover wa.
waiting. The marked card was still
there. The cashier held the stakes,
the fsrmer drew for the lady card, but
the lady was gone. The drover de
manded the stakes. The cashier re
monstrated, bnt gave them up at the
muzzle of • pistol. Then tho cashier
said he would make the drover give up
the money to the city, and the farmer
gave liim authority to proceed. Half
an hour later it dawned npon him that
be had been swindled, bnt no trace of
ti e operators has been discovered.

In a report to the French Academy
of Medicine Dr. Delthell stated that the
vapors of liquid tar and tnrpentine
wonld dissolve the fibrinous exhala
tions which choke up the throat in
croup and diphtheria. He describes the
process thus: “Take equal parts (sav
two Ubtespoonfuls) of turpentine snil
liquid tar; put them into a tin pan or
cup and set tire to tlio mixture, taking
rare to have a larger pan under it an a
-aft-guard against fire. A dense resi
