The Atlanta Constitution is now
“talking-up” a building in that city

long pull and a strong pull aud a pull
all together.” They do their sleeping

was, “without doubt, the one built by
the Roman centurion (Luke vii: 5),
and, therefore, one of the most sacred
spots on earth.” It was iu this build

This very synagogue was probably
the scene of the healing of the demo
niac and of the delivery of many of
those divine lectures on faith, humili
ty, brotherly love, and formality in
worship, as we read at the end of one
of them: “These thiugs said He in the?
synagogue as He taught in Caper
naum.’* Parhaps it was in the little
creek where a boat was uow tiding at
anchor only a few feet from the shore
that Christ taught the people from
the boat, so as to avoid the crush of
the multitude, it was doubtless in
one of these inlets that James, the son
of Zebeilee, ami John, his brother,
were mending their nets when, being
called, they left their ship and follow
ed Him; and it was ou this coast that
Andrew and Peter were casting their
nets when they were summoned to be
come fishers of men. It has a higher
claim to be called the birthplace of the
religion which has since revolutionized
the world than any other spot upon it;
and it is a matter of some surprise to
uie that neither the Greek nor the
Roman Catholic churches, in their zeal
to discover holy places, have yet
thought of occupying this one, which
would seem the holiest of all.
Apart from their associations, the
ruins themselves are not particularly
striking. They cover an area of about
half a mile in length by a quarter in
breadth, and consist chiefly of the
black blocks of basaltic stone which
formed the walls of the houses. The
traces of the synagogue, however, re
mained sufficiently for the building to
be planned. Built of white limestone
blocks, it must have formed a conspic
uous object amid the black basalt by
which it was surrounded. It was 75
feet by 57, built north and south, and
at the southern end. has three en
trances. Many of the columns and
capitals have been carried a way, but
enough still remains to convey some
idea of the general plan aud aspect of
the building. The capitals are of the
Corinthiau order, and there were epis-
tylia that rested upon the columns and
probably supported wooden rafters.
There are, also, remains of a heavy
cornice and frieze. The exterior was
probably decoratnd with attached
pilasters.’
THE RUINS OF CHORAZIN.
Two miles north of Capernaum are
the ruins of Chorazin. There is no
difficulty in identifying the site, which
may be determined partly by the itin
eraries of early travelers and partly
by the similarity of the modern name,
KirazoMi. The path to them leads up
the sloping, rocky hillside, but owing
to the peculiar character of the mason
ry, which Is barely to be distinguished
1*00 yards from the rocks which sur
round it, the extent and importance of
these ruins have been overlooked until
quite recently. They cover an area
as large, if not larger, than those ot
Capernaum, and are situated partly in
a shallow valley, partly on a rocky
spur fonned by a sharp bend in the
Wady Kirazeh, here a wild gorge
eighty feet deep. From this spot there
Is a beautiful view of the Lake of Ti
berias to its southern end; and here,
too, are gathered the most Interesting
ruins—a synagogue with Corinthian
capitals and nicheheads cut, not as at
Capernaums in limestone, but in hard,
black basalt. The dimensions of this
building are about the same as those of
the one at Capernaum, but the interior
is a mass of ruins. Two pedestals still
remain in situ,and a portion of the wall.
The chief characteristic of this syna-
w ne is an excess of ornauieutation of
rather a debased kind. The niches are
most elaborate, and remain as sharp
as when they were cut in the hard ma
terial used. The mouldings of the
door-posts are simililarto those used
iu other synagogues, aud there are
many stoues cut with deep mouldings
and pieces of classical cornices strewn
among the ruins.
Many of the dwelling houses are in
a torerably perfect state, the walls be
ing, in some cases, six feet high; and,
as they are probably of the same class
of houses as that in which Christ dwelt,
a description of them may be interest-
ng. They are generally square, of
different sizes, the largest, however,
not over thirty feet square, aud have
one or two columns (town the center

have been flat, as in the modern Arab
houses. The walls are about two feet

blocks of basalt There is a low door

and each house has windows twelve
inches high aud six wide. In one, or
two cases the house was divided into

JACKSON FOl’ND GUILTY.
Tlie Court Impoaea a Sentence of
Six Yrara at Hard Labor.
Augusta, Ga., May 16.—The case of
George T. Jackson, President of the
Enterprise Manufacturing Company,
charged with embezzling funds of the
company, was ended to-day by a ver
dict of guilty and the sentence of the
prisoner to six years at hard labor In
the penitentiary. The case has been a
remarkable one. The prisoner has
lived iu this community 62 years and
occupied positions of responsibility,
honor and public trnsti A few years
ago, carried aw*ay by a spirit of specu
lation, he used $175,000 of the Enter
prise Company’s money in his ven
tures. There are four indictments
against him. The ene on which the
conviction just had was based was on
$117,000 of checks of the company on
which money was converted to his own
personal use. It was proven that after
large sums had been converted it be
came necessary to conceal it from the
directors of the company, and false en
tries were made on the books and false
statements submitted. At last when
these disclosures had been made and
Maj. Jackson saw that he could not
extricate himself, he made a confession
to certain members of the board of di
rectors, in which he voluntarily exon
erated the l>ookkeepcr from participa
tion in the use of any of "the funds or
responsibility for their abstraction,
and says that he was alone responsible.
NO DEFENSE MADE.
All these facts were established by
the prosecution and nncontroverted by
tlie defense. No testimony was intro
duced by the defense, and the state
ment of Mr. Jackson and the argu
ments of his eouusel bore upon the
single question of intention, it being
claimed that the money was used with
no fraudulent intent, but with the set
tled purpose to pay it back to the com
pany. The jury returned a verdict of
guilty with a recommendation to mer
cy. The penalty prescribed by the
statute is from two to seven years im-

$7,(MX), which, with $12,000 already
given on the other three indictments,

Amusement With Snake*.
A telegram to the New* York Herald
from New Haven, says: When the
warm weather begins to come it is a
cold day,” to use a Hiberuicism,
when Connecticut does not come to
the front with a well-assorted stock of
first-class snake stories. E. W. Sco
field, of Weston, is a farmer who ha*
much amusement with black snakes.
Last autumn he discovered that he had
a den of these creatures in one of his
fields. They went into a large hole in
the ground so rapidly that he could
not couut them. The hole was about
four inches across and opened in the
half-filled cellar of an old house that
was built long before the revolutionary
war. He saw that small holes led
from the passage where a snake would
occasionally stick his head out. He
would sometimes take the snake by the
head and pull. It was difficult to pull
just hard enough not to pull the rep
tile in two and get him out whole, for
the snake would wind his tail firmly
around some object and insist on stay
ing. When he succeeded in getting
them out he would slap them over an
adjacent log and kill them. He pulled
out fifteen and one spotted adder, all
of which were over four feet long. He
has already begun his amusement this
spring, and has taken oat of his snake
farm sixteen snakes, the largest of
which is six feet long and three inches
in diameter. The other day he cap
tured a black snake in an apple tree,
near by with a robin in its mouth.
When he captured the snake the robin
flew away, gratified at its release. Mr.
Schofield asserts that the entire length
of his snakes is 127 feet' and 7 inches.
He has friends who are welcome to re
served seats at the sports of the ser-
E entine arena, and he estimates that
e has a stock of 500 to have fun with
this summer.
n English gentleman who lived in
India during his early life tells an
amusing story of some pranks played
by monkeys" They were almost as
tame and playful as kittens about his
home, and there was a great number
of them; * He says: '
“I was married iu India, and en
gaged for ray home a little house 14
miles or so from any other habitation
of white men. On the morning of our
arrival my wife went in to change her
traveling dress, while the servauts laid
breakfast on the veranda overlooking
" river. At r the clatter of the plates
began to come down, from the
that overshaded the house,
and up the trees that grew in the ra
vine behind It, from the house roof it-
$plf, jCrom everywhere, a ^multitude <>f
'solemn monkey** They came up'
singly and in couples and in families,
and took their places without noise or
'fuss on the veranda, and sat there, like
an audience' waiting for an entertain
ment to commence. And when every
thing was ready, the breakfast all
laid, the monkeys all seated, I went to
call my wife.
**Breakfast is ready, aud they arc all
waiting,” 1 said.
“ ‘Who are waiting?* she asked, in
dismay. ‘1 thought we were going to
be alone, and 1 was just coining out in
my dressing-gown.’
“Never mind, 1 said. The people
about here are not very fashionably
dressed themselves. They wear pretty
much the same thiugs all the year
round.
‘•And so ray wife came out. Imag
ine, then, her astonishment!
‘*ln the middle of die veranda stood
our breakfast table; all the rest ot the
space, as well as the railings and the
steps, was covered with an iniuieuse
company of monkeys, as grave as pos
sible, arid as motionless and silent as
if they were stuffed. Only their eyes
kept blinking, aud their little round
ears kept twitching. Laughing heart
ily, at which the monkeys ouly looked
all the graver, my wife sat down.
“.‘WUl they eat anything?” asked
“Try them, I said.
“So she picked up a biscuit and
threw it among the company.
“Three hundred moukeys jumped
up In the air like oue, and just for one
instant there was a riot that defies de
scription. The next instant every
monkey was sitting in its place as sol
emn and serious as if it had never
moved. Only their- eyes winked and
their ears twitched.
“My wife threw them another bis
cuit, and then the riot, and then anoth
er and another. But, at length, we
had given away all that we had to
give, and got np to go. The monkeys
at once rose, every monkey on the
veranda, and advancing gravely to tlie
steps walked down them In a solemn
procession, old and youug together,
and dispersed for the day’s occupa
tion.”
A Presidential Example.
Sava a nali News.
A good deal has been said about
President Cleveland's habits of early
rising aud his close application to the
duties of his office. Those who are
brought into contact with him, and
who have the opportunity to observe
his business habits, have taken notice
particularly of the method and system
in both his public and private affairs.
It is stilted that in this respect he is
very different from the predecessor,
who was a proverbial procrastinator
and who was always behind with liis
business, uo matter how little there
was to do.
— Mr. Arthur when President, was ir
regular about eating, going to bed and
rising—in fact about everything. It
is said chat Mr. Cleveland is as punct
ual at all his meals as he is about his
official duties, lie has his hours for
work and does his work in the time
assigned for it. Everything is ar
ranged so there is uo .clashing, aud
hence he is able to dispose of a very
great amount of busiuess each day,
and when his official hours are past he
stops work aud takes his recreation iu
the same systematic manner.
Probably one-half of the energy of
the people is unprofitable because of
the waul of punctuality and system.
One man who is not prompt anil sys
tematic in his business often involves a
whole community in trouble, throwing
the whole course of business out of
joint. A successful business man who
is not systematic is. required to exert
himself much more to obtain given re
sults that oue who is always method
ical and does every thing just when and
how it is proper that it should be done.
There are people who seem to be de
void of the faculty that enables oue to
be systematic. With the greater num
ber’the want of system is due to the
want of a proper appreciation of its ad-

Full Particulars off the Sad Event.

The Macon Telegraph 4bf -.yesterday
gives the following particulars of the
death of Miss Maud Clegg, which" sad
event was mentioned in these columns

Yesterday morning at 2:30 o’clock,

a death peculiarly sad aud touching.
To-day the college is in sorrow over
the melancholy event. Miss Maud
Clegg, daughterof Mr. V. A. Clegg,of
Albany, passed away, after an illness
«f only a few days.
Miss Maud was tinisliiii'g her second
year as a pupil in Wesleyan Female
college, and was a member of the
Sophomore class. Amiable andgenial,
full of the most generous impulses, she
was deservedly popular with, her
schoolmates- heft without a mother’s

Mrs. W. H. Felton, in tlie las: umn-

This is about the time when the
newspapers liegin to wail overthewoes
of the poor, downtrodden husband
who Is always set forth as coming
home from his work, whether in the
Held or at the desk, to find the house
all in confusion, a “picked-up dinner, ’
soapsuds and mopping brashes in his
way, and with no place to lay Ills
weary head for his afternoon nap. It
is understood by these annual com
plaints that the woman is a persecutor
for the time being, with no method in
her work and no mercy in her heart.
Now it is time these fallacies should be
overthrown, and “the truth, the
whole truth and nothing but the
troth,” set up in their place. Put the
average man on the witness stand, let
him tell of his sufferings and we are
satisfied nothing more will be needed.
Suppose the woman should undertake
.to clean it all in oue day—and she Is a
“green goose” if she does—it is certain
she has the heavy end of the pole to
carry, and one day will not hurt the

A Druggist Presents Some Cartons
Deductions.
A druggist gives some carious views
about the patent medicine business:
“It is estimated that there are thir
ty-six thousands of nostrums, patent
core-alls, which have achieved somfc-
thing of a reputation, and have yield
ed something of au income, many of
them large fortunes, to the patentee or
manufacturers. Now, it can be shown
by the sworn testimonials which are
produced by the makers Of these
medicines that each one has cured say
one thousand persons, the most of
whom have been ‘living skeletons,’
‘given lip to die,’ ‘rescued from the
grave,’ ‘unable to walk or talk,’ ‘all
but dead and bailed,’ etc., when pres
to! some sympathizing friend ‘per
suaded’ them to try Slocnm’s Slick
upon his heart. Her health had not |^ Kohinsou’s Ruin Remover,
been robust during the entire session, - ’
and sl*e seemed to apprehend -sudden
death, requesting not to be left .alone
when she might be sick, as she feared
she would die from some trouble of
the heart.
Not well on last Sunday, she did not
attend church iu the city* yet was not
confined to her room* till Monday.
Simple remedies were employed to re
lieve her of diarriuea from which she
was suffering, and on Wednesday a
physician was called, who examined
her, made a prescription, and said she
was doing so wdl he would not call
agaiu unfess sent for. She seemed to
la? improving Thursday till Late in the
evening, when there was a slight
change, tlie disease becoming
dysentery. Tlie physician made
a prescription and said he
would see her again in the morning.
She seemed to suffer only from weak
ness, and at 11 o’clock Thursday night,
in attempting to rise from bed she
slightly swooned, but soon rallied so
as to converse cheerfully. The ladies
and servants were sitting quietly by
her, one reclining on tlie bed by her
side, ami she con versed pleasantly w ith
them, complaining only of great fa
tigue. .She asked to lie" turned on her
side, and then seemed to be resting so
sweetly that the ladies thought one of
them might leave her for the night.
But alas! ou examination it was found
that she had ceased to breathe.
Every effort was made to restore her;
the doctor was called and all done that
love aud skill could suggest, but in
vain. Her sickness was short and not
severe, and it may be that her death
was caus<?d by some derangement. of
tile heart.
Her father was immediately tele
graphed the sad fact and yesterday
morning an answer was received in
structing that the remains be made
ready for shipment on the 8 o’clock
train last night.
In tlie afternoon at 6 o’clock short
religious sendees were conducted in
the college parlors, anil at 6:30 o’clock
the casket was taken to the depot, es
corted by President Bass, the faculty
and a number of the friends of the
young lady. At 8 o’clock last night
tlie remains left for Albany.
The death was sad beyond measure,
and has provoked for the stricken Tel-
atlves of the young lady the sympathy
of the entire community. It is the
first that has taken place at the eollege
in a number of years.
AMONG THE ORANGES.
A Tourist’* Description of the
Fruit and How it is Prepared.
Troy Budget.
The orange tree is hardy and lives
for many years. One still healthy,
somewhere in the Orient, is said to be
over 2,000 years old. Frost does not
kill tlie tree—only the fruit. Trees
commence to l>ear much more plenti
fully each year until 3,000 or more or
anges are raised ou a single tree in a
single year. When, first picked the
oranges are put on nicks to remain
there until the inoisluse is dried from
the skin. Each orange, before being
boxed, is wrapjied in a pieceof paper,
the wrapjier acting as an alisorbent of
moisture and keeping the moist skin of
the oranges from coming in contact
with each other. Man}* jieople who
go to Flotilla see oranges ou the trees
that line many of the streets in the
largest places, as well as unpicked
trees In groves, lienee they infer that
oranges are so cheap as not to be worth
the picking and boxing to sell. That's
a mistake. Tlie oranges so seen are
bitter or sour oranges and not sncli as
are sold. They are left for use when
wanted for orangeade or punch, as
well as for ornament to the grounds.
Boys don't “go for” bitter or sour or
anges hence they are allowed to re
main on the trees. In its original
state the orange was probably bitter or
sour, and the delicious flavor of the
sweet orange came by cultivation. It
is a common sight to see the ripe or
ange and masses of orange flowers all
on the tree at the same time. The ripe
orange will remain on the tree for a
year or more without picking, and
many leave a few oranges on the trees
to be picked as wanted. The orange,
by remaining unpicked, becomes more
dry and stringy, but when the next
year's frnit begins to be perfected the
old orange fills up again with new
juices and becomes nearly as good as
the new fruit.

Washington, May 17.—A Western
Democratic Congressman said to-day:
“1 have been here three days, and I am
exceedingly gratified over the ontlook

ns a new deal on the marshals and at

Yes, sir; ‘the rascal are all going.’ ”
Why He Stopped HI. Paper.
An Arizona man who subscribed for
a religious paper some time ago sent a
letter to the editor to stop it, in which
he said: “We find tlie Gila Howler,
oar local paper, much livelier than
your milk-and-water affair. Besides,
yon haven’t played a square game in
your ‘ads.’ My wife bought a pair of
the "corsets you advertise, and blamed
if they didn’t bust in three weeks, and
we use them now to mend the chicken
coop. 1 took half a dozen of the dead
shot pills yon puffed up in a reading
notice week before last, aud the next
day I was so sick that all the doctors
in the town published bulletins abont
my approaching death, and the boys
said I had the jim-jams. For these
reasous I have determined to quit your
paper and read the Howler only. As I
know it always lies, unless it is paid to
tell the truth, it can’t lead me into
temptation.” •
What Von Say.
“There are so many frauds adver

your hair than anything else you can

among the States. Attorney-General
Garland is thoroughly in harmony with Bible will doubtless mark the begin-
and not a moment of pain has been ex
perienced since! Thns it appears that
only about thirty-six millions of people
have been saved from untimely death
through the instrumentality of ‘tansy’
and cherry bark concoctions. In oth
er words, if the patent medicine adver
tisements are to be believed, instead of
being a nation of fifty-nine millions of
people there would only be about
twenty millions of us, if these univer
sal remedies had not been discovered.
“Another curious thing about patent
medicines is that every cure of any
merit and pretensions at all is n orth a
dollar a bottle. In most cases it is the
high prices that sells the medicine.
The contents of the bottle may not
have cost more than four or six cents,
but how many bottles of ten-cent med
icine would be sold? Your patent
medicine consumer wants to pay a full
round stun. It is the means of con
vincing himself that he is taking some
healing balsam, some precious pre
scription of some high-priced physi
cians?”
“Are many of the successful patent
medicines made by prominent physi
cians?”
“Very few. Some of the most pop
ular are made from prescriptions of
men who know little or nothing about
the science of medicine. It is, in fact,
a violation of the code of ethics of
every medical society for a member to
lend his name to a patent medicine.
A notable instance of this occurred
about thirty years ago. Dr. McClin-
tock, a celebrated physician and a pro-
fessorin the Jefferson Medical College
of Philadelphia, after a careful study
of the common bodily illsof the human
family, prepared several prescriptions
of ■ unquestioned merit, and a large
Yew York house manufactured the
medicines according to the prescrip
tions and pat them upon the market as
‘McClintock’s Remedies.’ A fortune
was spent in introducing and adver
tising the medicines, but they were a
total failure. Moreover, Professor
McClintock was denounced as a quack,
forced to retire from the college, ex
pelled from the medical societies and
ruined. An inventor of patent medi
cine w-ints to be without reputation
(except as he gains it from his photo
graph) and then if tbe worst comes he
will have nothing to lose.”
The BevUed Bible.
-Savannah News.
The committee of theologians and
scholars of the Church of England ap
pointed by the Convocation of Canter
bury in February, 1870, for. tite pur
pose of revising the English Bible has
completed its work after fifteen years
of earnest and almost unremitting la
bor. Tbe committee was composed of
the most eminent divines and scholars
of that church, aud had, by invitation,
the co-operation of many other learned
men, both of England and America.
About two years ago the Yew Testa
ment was issued aud met with a most
favorable reception among Protestants
of all denominations. Many churches
outside of the communion of the
Church of England adopted it in place
of the King James translation, which
has so well served the English speak
ing portion of the Christian world for
nearly three centuries. Yesterday
morning the Old Tastament was given
to the newspapers in London, and to
morrow the complete revised edition of
the Bible will be for sale in the book
stores of that city.
The translation of the Bible by the
commission of fifty-four divines ap
pointed by King James I. of England,
on motion of Dr. Reynolds, of Oxford,
which completed its labors in 1611,
was the most extraordinary literary
work of that period. It has been in
use for 274 years, and its faithfulness,
pure aud strong English, its simple
and dignified style, though partaking
of the quaintness of the language of
that age, have through ail these years
secured its acceptance by persons of
almost til shades of religious belief,
and given it a combination of advan
tages over any rival.. It has become
endeared to the hearts of millions of
people, who will be extremely reluc
tant to have it supplanted by the more
scholarly and modern, and perhaps
more exact revision.
It has been felt for generations,
however, that the King James Bible
could be greatly improved in both
clearness and accuracy, and there can
be no doubt that the work of the Can
terbury committee clears up innumer
able obscure, perhaps erroneous pas
sages, and presents many favorable
contrasts in arrangement and style
with the original translation.
It will of course be at once adopted
by the Church of England, and if on
close Inspection it proves to he as free
from denominational bias, and to be as
meritorious a work from a theological
and scbolastical point of view, as there
is reason to believe it will, it will very
aooh become popular writh inany other
denominations.
The issuing of this revision of the
ning of a new era in Christianity, tbe
more especially as the. English lan
guage seems to be that which is des
tined to become the universal language
of the future. It is not to be expected
that it will be free from criticism, but
it will be pretty sure to elicit only that
friendly criticism which Will cause it
to be eagerly sought for, and to stimu
late the people anew to the study of
Holy Writ.
An interesting, point in connection
with the present efforts being made to
recover the treasure from the sunken
frigate "Hussar is that Capt. Hunt, of
Hunt’s Point, a Hell Gate pilot, bad
been fenBged to bring the English
fleet through .Long Island Sound. He
had a slave whom everybody knew as
“Bill,” a good pilot and a trascy man.
“Bill” had charge of the frigate Hus
sar on thatiatal trip, and when he re
ported to his master and was bein'; re
primanded, the darkey said: “Why,
sir, they ran her on the rocks on pur
pose. I could have taken her through
safe enough, but they tried to kill me,
and I ran out on the bowsprit and
jumped overboard and swam ashore.”
Miss E. A.' Bartow, a granddaughter
of Capt. Hunt, says the negro did not
know about the large amount of money
on board, and that her grandfather did
not believe one penny went down in
her, hut thought that the officers took
the money and sunk the ship.

Whose wife is troubled" with debility,
nervousness, liver complaint or rheu

Brown’s Iron Bitters will relieve her.
Mrs. L. B. Edgeriy, Dexter, Me.,
says, “Brown’s Iron "Bitters cured me
of debility and palpitation of the
heart.” Mrs. H. S. McLaughlin, of
Scarborough, Me., says the hitters
enred her of debility. Mrs. Harding,
of Windham Centre, in the same state,
says it cured her of dizziness in the

other ladies.

along soon and crawl into the horn

your horns occasionally and you will

An Important Social Fact.
SaTumth Sews.
Temperance people ought to be en
couraged. The figures show that tbe
amount of whisky that is consumed in
this country does not Increase as rap
idly as the population Increases. It
will be very generally admitted,
doubtless, that a marked change has
taken place in the drinking habits of
the American people within the last
quarter of a century.
According to tbe censns of 1860 the
population of this country at that time
was 31,000,000, and that year there was
consumed 86,000.030 gallons of whisky
and other spirituous liquors. Last
year tbe population being estimated at
55.000. 000. the consumption 'was only
73.000. 000. According to these figures,
while the population foul increased in
twenty-four years 75 per cent., the
amount of spirituous liquors consumed
had fallen off 15 per cent.
" The consumption of malt liquors,
however, has greatly increased. The
consumption in 1860 was 100,000,000
gallons, and in 1884 590,000,000 gal
lons. The same great increase is
shown in the consumption of native
wines. In 1860 the consumption was
1,800,000 gallons. Last year it was
17.000. 000. But is it not better that
tbe people should drink beer and light
wines than whisky? It would be still
better, of course, if the consumption of
both malt and spirituous liquors could
be checked, but as it does not appear
possible to do that except in localities,
it ought to be a source of satisfaction
that there is a steady movement to
wards the lighter drinks.
Mr. A. P. W., of Hampton, Ga.,has
