County Alliance has
The Farmers' Alliance In Georgia Is
fast approaching the unhappy state of
"n house divided against Itself."
Hoineof t he leaders who led the or
ganization into politics now find them
selves nimble to wield it entirely in
their own interest, and are moving to
have It “let up” on politics.
At a meeting of the Alliance Execu
tive Committee at Atlanta on Wednes
day night we are told that a resolution
was passed demanding of all county
Alliances and sub-Alliancrs that have
endorsed the Third Party to rescind
their action or give up their charters.
Livingston madu the tight for this res
olution. and finally itwus unanimously
adopted.
The meeting of the Executive Com
mlttcv nt which this notion was taken
is said to have lasted until midnight,
nnd the resolution adopted Is regarded
as a master stroke for Democracy.
The resolution is based on the action
of the Nutioiml Alliance declaring
that no Alliance nr sub-Allinnce shall
lake any political action or declare
Itself part of any political organiza
tion.
Some of the Alllnnoeitien and sub-
XlllnnccH have nlready gone too fnr on
the Third Party road to take tho baok
track, and- it is probable that rather
than submit to the autlon of the Ex
ecutive Committee they will throw up
their charter*.
Livingston Is tho man who led the
Alliance Into politics In Georgia, nnd
now it seems that he is the first to try
to force the organization to “linndB
otr."
Now, who was It that said, “We told
you so?”
m
The Berrien
decided not to join the Third party,
hut will try to Inject Its platform and
Its candidates Into tho Democratic
party. A rose by any other name is
not so sweet when It comes to politics,
and If the’ Berrien Alliance Is stuck
on the Third Party platform it had ns
well take that party’s namo.
Col. L. L. Polk, President of the
National Farmers’ Alllanoe, made a
flying trip to Atlanta on Saturday,
and the supposition Is that he went to
consult with Col. Peck nnd the other
Third Party leaders nbout how to
head off Col. Leonidas Livingston in
his campaign for the Democracy.
A WAaniNOTON special to a leading

A certain city official of Albany
went out on the Blakely Extension
Sunday afternoon for the purpose of
visiting Ills family, and returned on
the 10:4S a. m. train Monday. Here Is
a little incident of his journey, as he
told it to a reporter of the Herald
“As the train was coming along be
tween Walker’s Station and Albany, a
mau who was in the baggage oar
dropped his hat out of the door. The
train was going at the usual rate of
speed, but the man jumped from the
front end of the oar, ran bank to
where his hat had fallen, secured it,
and caught up with the rear end of
the train before it got out of reach.
Now I saw this with my own eyes,

say. Why, the fastest time they make

giueer Henry Shantz nearly every
day. After being in a frenzy half a
minute he fails to the ground in a
faint.
Shantz lives with his brother John
on a farm between Fenton and Kirk
wood on the banks of the Meramec.
He is a hopeless maniac and has been
so for two years. His history ex
plains it
Sixteen years ago Henry was on
engineer on a Union Pacific locomo
tive. Among his railway friends was
one George Dickson and the latter’s
fireman. Allison. Diokson and Shantz
got into a dispute over a game of
cards, and whenever they passed
each other after that Dickson and Al
lison would taunt Shantz and call
him a thief and a coward. One day
in Denver matters came to a climax.
Shantz got into a rage and swore he'd
get even with his enemy within
twenty-four hours
He left Denver for the west in
charge of an express. He learned
that Dickson and’ Allison would fol
low him on a lone locomotive within
fifteen minutes. About fifteen miles
out of Denver, at the Geyergorgi
was a switch that ran a track dowu
a Blope, which stopped abruptly at
the brink of the gorge. This siding
was rarely used and the switch was
lucked.
Shantz saw his clianco to get
’even" with his tmmters in a ter
rible way. He slowed up, and with
the excuse to the fireman that he
would go back to see if tho switch
was sound, rushed back, broke the
look and turned the lever from right
to left, so that Dickson’s locomotive
would go down the siding and smash
down the gorge. He then returned
to his eugine.
Within twenty minutes there was
an unearthly shriek in the valley, a
tremendous crash and Dickson’s en
gine had smashed down the gorge and
was dashed into a thousand frag
ments hundreds of feet below.
Pieces of flesh and bones was all
that was left of Dickson and Allison.
The affair attracted great atten
tion at the time. Shantz was at once
suspected, and the combined facts
that Shantz threatened to get “even"
and that he stopped at the gorge
convicted him, He was sentenced
lightly, however, going to the Den
ver penitentiary for ten years. In
1886 he was released.
No one knew where he was after
his release, until one morning, two
years ago, he knocked at the door of
hi* brother’s house. He was very ill
and for two months raved like a
madman. He has improved at times,
but he is a hopeless maniac.
While wandering about the yard
he will suddenly rush into the house,
yelling, “That locomotive is coming
straight toward me. It is coming
oh. for God’s sake, take me away I
Dickson is steering it to run directly
over me."
After his faint be will describe his
phanton engine.
“It had'erape all over it,” he says.
’Dickson, with a white shroud over
bis shoulders, hod his skinny hand
on the throttle valve, and he uttered
a loud curse on me before he blew
off steam. Allison taunted me tike
be used to do. A demon sat on the
cowcatcher with his arms open to
grab me." ,
He will then go into his room and
tremblingly go to his bed. At night
he walks to and fro, looking out of
the window at intervals, and then,
drawing back, would shriek: “Oh
that headlight is coming round the
bend I It lias a monster blaze I” Then
he will crawl under his couch and
remuiu there for hours.—St. Louis
Chronicle.

This Good Samaritan Was a Woman.
A poor Italian woman with u babe
in her arms and two tittle tots at her
heels arrived in Boston one day last
week. She could not Speak a word
of English. She handed a piece of
Miter to n policeman, who shook his
tend and turned away. A Boston
woman, one of God’s women, too,
approached the poor immigrant, and
taking the paper from her read an
Italian name, number so and so Bil
lerica street. Unfortunately the good
Samaritan did not know where Bil
lerica street was; so, followed by the
Italian and her £tle ones, she en
tered a store to fiifU out. Seeing the
’Italian, the storekeeper exclaimed.
“Oh, they’ve been in here three or
four times before; we don’t know
anything about it I"
“But surely the directory will tell
where Billerica street is,” Baid the
kind hearted woman, grasping thut
much thumbed volume. A brief ex
amination resulted in tho desired in
formation, nnd straightway tho good
Samaritan escorted tho mother and
her tittle ones to humble lodgings,
where tlie immigrant’s mother wel
comed the party with benedictions in
sweet Neapolitan. After contributing
money to buy mitteus for the tittle
ones the good Samaritan went ber
way. Which- would you rutlier be,
the policeman, the storekeeper or the
good Suinaritan?—Boston Herald.

From Monday's Ev*xmo Hz»*Lii.
The Eplsoopal ohuroh, Rev. W. K.
Eppes, reotor, had been tastefully and
appropriately decorated for yesterday
morning’s services. The fresh, cool
air, the dainty perfume of flowers, and
the sweet, beautiful musio all com
bined to bring holy, helpful thoughts
of that day which is the anniversary,^
of the resurreotion of Christ, and to *
give some faint conception of that
“Peace which paasetli understanding.”
The musio had been especially pre
pared for the services, and was most
heartily enjoyed by the whole congre
gation. The deep, rich bass of Mr.
Julian Price was a pleasing addition
to the choir, and tho clear treble of
Master Chester Clark’s boyish voice
ns it rung out so sweetly in a short
boIo, caused a general turning of bends j\
to ascertain who was the new member j
of the choir.
The opening services were rather
lengthy- nnd Included the christening
of the infant daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
Strange, but True.
The other afternoon a room suffi
ciently large was occupied for three
hours by a company of about fifty
persons. There was talking by sev
eral different persons, and about half
way through the exercises a song >vns
attempted. The Bingor accomplished
her task with much difficulty, for by
that time the air Was vitiated and
exhausted so that her voice seemed
to foil back into her throat. A late
comer, who reached the room only a
few moments before the company
dispersed, recoiled from the air which
met her, and a glance Bhowed the
dull yet glassy eyes nnd flushed
cheeks which come with choking
ltlngs.
But, says the render nt this point,
they must have been a set of chil
dren or ignoramuses not to have
opened the windows or doors and
obtained relief. They were neither.
It was a session of one of tho bright
est women's clubs in the city, and
there were half a dozen representa
tive women discussing with zeal and
practical knowledge the question of
unne sanitation I—Her Point of View
in New York Times.
G. M.
Baoon, of DeWitt. Tim little
one was christened Oleland Nelson
Bacon. On account of the length ot
the services, Mr. Eppes cut the sermon
prepared for the morning to a talk, 1
but the talk was one of Interest.
Tho whole congregation was pleased .
and benefited by the morning service.
Communion was held at the close of
tin? regular services, and the number^ -
of communicants present was much
larger limn usual.
A noticeable feature of the church
decorations was the Jennings’ cross.
It had been covered with evergreens,
decorated with flowers and placed in,
a prominent position In loving re-
She Yelled ••Mouse” and Jumped.
A surprisingly strong bit of evi
dence in proof of a woman’s inability
to remain calm in the presence of a
mouse was that contributed by Brid
get Colgan, the servant girl who is
now being treated for a broken ankle
at the Philadelphia hospital.
Miss Colgan Is a fine, strapping
young daughter of Erin, who would
give most men a hard tussle in a trial
of physical strength, and her nerves
are usually ns strong as her muscles.
Yet when Bridget was cleaning the
second story windows of the house
where sh&was employed ns chamber
maid last week and sho saw a mouse
run out from under the bed, she in
stantly turned nnd leaped into the
street below, at tho samo time scream
ing, “A-mouse I a mouse I"
Perhaps no more remarkable in
stance of this strange fear has over
been recorded, and Miss Bridget’s es-

whose enthusiastic work for the Epis

CHILDREN’S EASTER CELEBRATION.
The ohlldren’s Easter celebration
held at St. Paul’s ohuroh yesterday
afternoon, nnd conducted by Mr. T. M.
Tloknor, Superintendent of the Epis
copal Sunday School, was espeoially
enjoyed by all present, children and
grown people.
The little folks entered with a will
Into tho Sunday School singing, and
seemed much pleased when their
motto-building resulted In the motto,
“Christ Is Blsen,” stretched across the
chancel in letters of evergreen.
The children’s address by Rev. W. EJ
Eppes was a most creditable effort. It .
came within the comprehension of ail
but the very youngest children and
aroused and held their- intesMfi all
through. In loving, tender words Mr.
Eppes referred to one who had always
been present at the Sabbath meetings

and more of tlie work to be done, but
who now had been called to that uni

softened down and the face is at its
best.
‘Whenever you suspect a man of

Too Many Miracles.
Spinulus, a monk of Moyon Mou-
tier, in the Vosges, died in 707. His
death was followed by an epidemic
of miracles, so that Hildulf, the ab
bot, fearing his monks might be be
guiled from their proper work by
the crowds of pilgrims who hastened
to the wonderful scene, knelt down at
the tomb of "ipinulus and charged the
deceased monk, by the obedience
which he had owed him while alive,
to save the brotherhood from the im
pending danger. Spinulus complied,
and the "embarras des miracles” was
at an end.—All the Year Round.
All Right Now.
