GODWIN & SON —The manses or the people of this State are not prosperous. The gener al wealth of the State has Increased at a very gratifying rate for the last twenty-live years. In 1SS2 the person alty and realty in Georgia, in round numbers, was worth $268,£19,000; in 1891, $402,685,000; or an inorease in twenty-five years of nbout $800,000,000 in the personnltjr and realty of the State. If to this more than credit able development shall be added the unparalleled inorease in our inanufno- tures nnd rnilroads, we shall find the property of the people of this State now estimated at $445,000,00. —This inorease in otir taxes,If prop erly distributed, would be a most sat isfactory indication of general thrift. But an investigation will show thnt the aggregations of wealth has been in ourolties, while many of our,rural dis tricts have suffered from depletion ami debt. In 1882 tho farm lands of the State were worth $87,000,000; in 1891, $110,000,000; ail inorease of less than $80,000,000 since 1882, whloli is less than one-fourth of the Inorense of the personally and realty of the State for the snme time. These conditions hnve produced great unrest among the people, which lias found utterances in political dif ferences mid petition! antagonisms un known and unparalleled in the history of the State. The General Assembly Bliouid do everything possible to nd- just these differences and unite the people again in sentiment, in purpose and in effort to restore the State to content, peace and prosperity. The perpetuity of the government, in the great scope of its liberty, its civilization, its growth und its law must be determined by tho masses who make its desliny. The highest duty of the State, therefore, is to make citi zens who can think and act for them selves with an independence of con viction worthy of the responsible du ties they must disohnrge. —The first duty of the State Is to de mand absolute obedience to the law. No government, whatever else it may propose, can long stand when the law is set aside by the will of the individ ual citizen. Whenever the citizen is allowed to defy the law the State is In danger and the people are in fenr. —The best possible investment for the people’s money is in the education of the children of the State. The State planned wisely when it established a system of free education, beginning with tho elements nnd culminating in the completeness of a university scholar. A maddened mob is a mennnee to our liberties and our law. There can be no excuse for its organization, and no toleration for its crimes. —A big fire whioh oaught in an oil warehouse in Milwaukee on Friday night has swept away a large part of the business portion ot the olty. Over three hundred buildings in all were burned, and five lives were lost. The fire was not got under control until Saturday evening. The estimated loss is over $8,000,000, oovered with insur ance within $200,000 of the amount. —The Itepublioans In New York State have collected a corruption fund of over $1,400,000 for use in that State alone. This is more than $2 per head for every Republican voter in the State. They are busy now trying to discover some schemes to evade the re strictions of the Australian bnllot law. —On Saturday n dozen -‘repeaters” were arrested in New York City. Gacli one of them had agreed to vote twenty-live times fertile Republican tioket. —Tho county Democracy in New York has withdrawn Its inunlcipfU ticket. The Tammany tioket is the only Democratic tioket now In the field. —Few sports can be found with nerve enough to risk their cash on Harrison. Bets are $100 to $75 on Cleveland, and few takers are to be found. home rniNos in wiuuh au. WOMEN ARE INTERESTED. Fa.Mm Pads nnd Usetal Minis Gath ered Frau the Fashion Papers.

Bvr.ntfl of an Evening In Chicago. There was another explosion of sswfer gas last ni; s -lit in the electric conduit which runs along the north side of Washington street. Commencing with the manhole at the corner of Fiftli ave nue and Washington street there were a series of explosions resembling the boom ing of cannon. Fire flashed from the manholes, und tho heavy iron covers were hurled into tho air with terrific force. / The effect on the bystanders and the cab horses which were anchored around the corners when the explosions occurred was terrifying in the extreme. Henry Oren, a cabman, who stands at the cor ner of Fifth avenue and Washington street, was standing ulmoBt over tho manhole when the explosion ocuurrod, The flames from below burned his whis kers almost to u crisp, and the heavy iron cover just grazed tile top of his cab as it came down. A dclugo of inud was blown out by the explosion and came down liko a cloudburst raised from the Chicago river. Mr. Oren was covered with mnd from head to foot, but this mud hath probably saved his life, as hr$ whiskers were burning furiously when the mudbnrst settled down on him. Gi ovanni Multruchio, hot popcorn vendor, was pushing liis cart along La Salle street and hnd the left wheel of his cart on the manhole plato when the explosion occurred. His cart was almost totally wrecked. The glass cage in which his tempting viands were exposed for sale was shattered into a million fragments, and his popcorn was scattered about for half a block. Signor Maltruohio escaped with a slight contusion on his left side, caused by the shaft of his cart as it was hurled over, and his trousers were burned Dearly to his knees. There was the same kind of a shower of mud thrown out there as at Fifth avenue and Washington street. The by standers were doluged.—Chicago Times. He Awoke from HU Dream. New Boarder—You must give me another room. Hotel Clerk—What’s the matter with the room you’ve got! ”My room's all right, but in the next room there is somebody who snores so loud that the walls shake.” “Is that sot’’ “Yes, it is a great deal worse than that. Can’t you give me a room near that divine creature with golden locks and a startled fawn expression who sat opposite mo at dinner yes terday!” ‘ ‘Why, man alive I her room is next to yours. Sho does tho snoring you are kicking about.”—Texas Siftings. Punishment for Poisoners. In ancient Rome poisoning was punished by crucifixion, no matter what the rank of the criminal, al though thiB penalty was usually re served for slaves. A Roman of re spectable station, having been con victed of poisoning his ward, was sentenced to bo crucified, but pro tested against the punishment as un fit for a gentleman. The emperor thereupon ordered the cross to he painted white and otherwise made more presentable than those com monly used. Whether the convict expressed himself as better satisfied is not recorded.—Pittsburg Leader. Two Thought*. Woman (to herself)—It scares me half to death to drive this horse. I wonder what he’ll do next. Horse (to himself)—That must he a woman driving, or I wouldn’t be jammed into everything on the road. —New York Weekly.

(3) Indian Holies In Now Jorsoy. John Gifford, instructor of botany in Sworthmore college, of Pennsylvania, who has been studying the archaeology of southern New Jersey for some time and has found many interesting relics recently while exploring near May's Landing discovered a camp ground,,the location of which he keeps a profound secret. From it he has collected a fine variety of implements and Indian utensils. Re cently he found Indian bones, somo tor toise shells, an oddly shaped pipe, a bushel basket of large, queerly orna mented potsherds, Indian plummets, ar row heads and spear points, jasper Bcrapers’ bone implements and an awl, delicately made from jasper, evidently for punching holes in leather. Mr. Gifford is also collecting Indian food plants, many of which, he claims, are worthy of cultivation. On foot and by boat Mr. Gifford lias been soverul years exploring in south Jersey. He lias found and mapped out the principal camp grounds along the rivora whero tlio Indians had permanent settlements. He lias already been so amply re warded by liis discoveries there that lie will continue liis searches until tho mid dle of next month. The relics lie has found will lie given to Swarthmoro col lege.—Washington Star. AGENTS. write ^indemnity against Fire, Tornado, Lightning, Accident, Death. Short capes have proven too conven ient to become easily discarded nnd will be seen in styles oomlng only to the waist line, fitting slightly below nnd ot three-quarter length, called military. Persian lamb, Astrnclian, seal, krimmer, mink, beaver, black marten, etc., are among the furs thnt will prove popular for these garments, with muffs of a medium size to match. The long military capos are truly beautiful wraps, but the jaunty, short capes are preferred by young ladies; all have tile flaring collar.

The following Is a pretty way of trimming a blank silk dress: Over the plain bodice a broad band of blaok satin is put on so as to form nn Invert ed V at the baok and a Bhort Figaro vest in front. ThiB satin band is edged dn each side with jet beading. The'bniloon sleeves nre of blaok satin, with a .deep frilling of blaok tulle headed with jet heading. A blaok satin ribbon is tied round the neck; tlivifttarreau skirt is trimmed round the foot with a deep flounce of blaok tulle, and a Watteau pleat of the same, commencing from under the satin' trimming at the baok, flows down to the edge of the skirt, Tills may be either a visiting, reception or dinner dress, and will be found to be n useful model for the autumn. It also looks well in pale buff cashmere and nut- brown satin, with unbleached guipure lace instead of the blaok tulle; or, again, the blaok satin and tulle can be worn with any colored silk or cash mere dress, either plain or striped.

ED. L. WIGHT & CO., Albany, Ga. DECLINE OE THE COBSET. The rise of the short bodioe, says Roseleaf, announces tho decadence of the corset. When culture comes in at the window, even fashionable oulture, whioh now inoludes all manner of ath letic and wholesome sport, the oorset and its restrictions fly out of the door. Tight laoing, like starched skirts and jewelry with street costumes, all onoe the signs manual of gentility, are now relegated to desuetude. The woman of good taste would now as soon think of using stage make-up on her face by daylight as of tighten ing her corBet unduly, and the best dressed women on the promenade you will find indulging not in tight shoes, tight gloves or a tight bodioe.

'tistfSS furniture may create an impression of departed prosperity, or it may indicate a refined taste for antiqui ties, It all depends upon how old the style is, aud what the fashion may be, for there is a style just be twixt and between, which is not old enough to be antique and not new enough to be modern.
