On Monday some one stole Mr. M. Y. Parrish’s purse containing twenty dollarp, and on the following Wednesday some one robbed the store of Mr. J. A. Brannen and got merchandise to the amount of about fifty dollars. Both rob¬ beries were committed iu the day time between twelve and one o’clock. THE NEWS AT FLY. PAN. A good many from this place attended church at Blitch Sunday last. Mr. J. K- Kingery has the watermelons arouud hero. They will be ripe. Mr. W. T. Womack has the first roasting ears. He has a very large patch and they are fine. There is a great demand for fruit jars, there being such a large crop of all kinds of frit made thio year. If the candidate wishes to cap¬ ture the yote of flie people arouud here, let hjiR come forward with ft hoe. Dr, Temple’s horse ran away with his buggy one day last week and tore it up. As it happened he was not in the buggy at time. Messrs. Lonnie and Frank derman are assisted by Mr. Lem¬ uel their work on the ppw dwelling of Mr. Ben Worn ftck’l. Miss Lola Cobb has suspended her school at this place for a and she left hero Thursday ning for her home at Bloys, attended the examination day and took in the institute this week. The colored school teacher who hag been teaching near here failed to pass the examination last Sat¬ urday and had to quit her school, She has returned home to take u|> soipe occupation she knows pno.’-e about. For my part, and 1 feel sure that all the rest, of the correspondents do also, I highly appreciate the oo’mplimeuts the editor and the readers of The Herald have be¬ stowed upon us, and we thank them very much for it. Mr. Joseph Woodcock, a rising young man in this section went betore the board to stand aL ex¬ amination for teaching. Mr. Woodcock has many friends around here and is well like^j by all. He haso^r best tyjshps. ]\fr. Wilfie the mail con¬ tactor between Fly and States^ jiOfo has let the mail contraotor get one on him. He fooled him into signing a contract carrying the mail by Gem, and that office being done away with, he wants to knock off about $80. e have plenty of grass now. One mau says he bas hut one bunch, and that is all over field. He rays ho has to dig around it and then take an axe and cut the roots, and another man declares that he has got seme grubbing hoes to work with. However, we believe they were exaggerating a little, although it is pretty bad. HUBERT HAPPENINGS. VERA. Miss Ida Cair is in Savannah this week. Miss Lucile McDowell is iu Statesboro attending the institute and Mr. If looks blue. Rev. T. F. Cary preached a very able sermon to a large and appre¬ ciative audience last Sunday. Mr. Edgar Robertson, after a few days delightfully spent in the “Laud of Flowers,” is home again. Mr. H. K. Robertson, the genial commercial tourist of Lippman Bros., passed through Woodburn yesterday en route to Statesboro. Mr. M. K. Hagan, who has been confined to his bed for so long a time, was able to ride out a few days since. We wish him Jmanv long years of life yet. Little Eva Hubert Hagin had the misfortune to cut her right hand Sunday morning. Dr. Mathews dressed the wound and she is resting easy at present. A certain young man at ohureh Suuday morning did uot know what to do j he acted as if he was lost. I wonder who could account for him. Is it l ecause Miss L- is iu Statesboro? The Woman’s Missionary Soci¬ ety held its regular mouthlv meet¬ ing at Mrs. B. L. Robertson’s. I ler parlor was beautifully adorn¬ ed with cut flowers, and the Soci¬ ety was treated to some nice music by Master Bennie L. Lobertson. We wish you much success in the future, Master Bennie.

No Truth In stories of Germination After Thousand* of Yonrs. “The statement is frequently made In the popular press,” said I'rofessor Ij. H. Pummel, government botanist, “that seeds have retained their vitality for a long time. Thus it Is stated that wheat under some conditions has pre¬ served its vitality for 50 or 100 years. It has frequently been stated that wheat taken from Egyptian monu¬ ments germinated, but In not a single case is this germination authenticated. Not a single grain taken from an an¬ cient Egyptian sarcophagus and sown by various persons has ever been known to germinate, and the condi¬ tions for preserving the seed in these Egyptian monuments are better than in the soli. They are protected from the air and variations of temperature. The experiment which lias "been most talk* ed of is that of the Count of Sternberg at Prague. He had received the grains from a trustworthy traveler, who told him that they were taken from a sarcophagus. It is said that two of these seeds germinated, but it is a well known fact that Impostures are per¬ petrated by the people who dispose of these seeds. In some cases they have even stripped corn or maize into these sarcophagi. “Many experiments have been made, not ouly in this country, but in Europe, to determine the vitality of various grain seeds. Thus, barley retains its vitality better than any other cereal, and this is said to retain its vitality from eight to ten years. In the ease of wheat 90 to 100 per cent germinates in from one to four years; in five to seven years, 85 to 87 per cent. In the ease of rye the percentage of germina¬ tion in five years dropped to 55 per cent; in sc -en years, 30 per cent; nine years, 13 per cent. In the case of corn, 1 made some experiments a few years to determine the vitality and found corn which was kept In tightly vessels at the age of 20 years lost all its power of germination. Experiments also indicate that corn kept even a few years became largely and lost much of Its pow¬ of germination. Even grass seeds have been buried at some depth in the soil and in vessels tigbtiy sealed failed to germinate after a dozeu or 15 years.”—Chicago Chronicle. “The Woriteit Crime Ever.” A young uegress iu mourning asked the magistrate for a warrant in the Jefferson Market court. “There is a negro who has committed the worstest crime ever,” she said. “It’s so awful I can't hardly tell about it. My mother died a week ago, and he done took a pawn ticket from the corpse. Now lie’s done took out a dia¬ mond ring ou that ticket that, was my mother’s, and now the ring should be mine, but he won’t give it to me.” “Well, that’s rather bad,” admitted the magistrate, signing a warrant for the offender. The young woman returned in the afternoon iu company with a well dressed negro with whom she seemed to be on very friendly terms. He was the defendant. “What have you got to say to the charge?” the magistrate demanded of him. “Why,” the man replied smilingly, "the dead woman was my wife.” “Is he your stepfather?” asked the magistrate, turning to the girl. “Course he is,” she answered. “And why didn’t you tell me that be¬ fore?” “ ’Cause l wanted that ring, your honor," “Step out,” said the magistrate. “Step out,” echoed a half dozen po¬ licemen, while the man and the girl walked out together Yvitbout a sign of animosity.—New York Exchange. The Road to Snccenx, There is a mistaken notion '.hat suc¬ cess in life Is achieved only by hard ef¬ fort. An “education” Is not necessary to become successful in life, beyond thorough familiarity with the rudi¬ ments. An education comes to an in¬ dustrious man as naturally as age. Ability to deliver orations is not neces¬ sary. Industry and honesty, which are easier than idleness and dishonesty, will achieve success for any man of ordi¬ nary ability. Success is easier than failure. Success seldom comes at once; It is a matter of years of good conduct add intelligent work.—Atchison Globe. Shooting Stars, Sir Robert Ball, the eminent astron¬ omer, once told an audience that any one who took the trouble to ilo on his back on the ground nnd gaze at a clear night sky would, as his eyes became accustomed to the heavens, soon per¬ ceive numbers of shooting stars. Bottles of perfume, still fresh, and Jars of pomade that had not lost its fragrance have been recovered from Herculaneum and Pompeii. Children have more need of model* than of erlt <s Wonder* of New Hampshire. The average reader will be amazed to learu that little New Hampshire, with less than 10,000 square miles, lias no less than 400 lakes and ponds, 154 brooks, 58 rivers and 204 mountains. This makes Iowa look small. Colorado, a big state, lias 550 creeks. Texas has comparatively few rivers, lakes and creeks. Alabama has 003 creeks and 87 rivers. Iowa cannot approach that record. Minnesota lias 222 lakes and 140 rivers.—New York I’ress. Ills Vocation. Hicks—It is a shame the way Buster is bringing up that boy of his. The lad doosn’t know how to read or write, and there is no Indication of his ever sent to school. Wicks—Buster knows what he is ing, you can depend upon it. Probably he Intends when that boy reaches man¬ hood he will have all the business can attend to as criminal court Boston Transcript. The Hnrem a Prlann. The western boast that every man’s bouse Is ills castle Is as nothing to the sanctity of the eastern hnrem. No of¬ ficer of the law may enter a harem, and therefore there is no safeguard for the life and liberty of its inhabitants. One day they may be slaves, the next prin¬ cesses and the next strangled or poison¬ ed. An ill disposed man could carry off an enemy to bis harem and kill him, «nd rone would be the wiser. BOOKS’ NARROW ESCAPES. Virgil** “.Flnelil.” WorliH of Aristotle nutl Talmud Saved b>* Good Luck. Three of the greatest books in the world have narrowly eseaped destruc¬ tion, the “.Eneid” of Virgil, the works of Aristotle and the great body of Jew¬ ish tradition represented by the Tal¬ mud. It is recorded that Virgil on his deathbed sought to burn the only copy of the “Eneid,” as lie had not revised It, and when he vrns foiled in this he ordered Ills executors, Varro and Tuc ca, uot to give it to the world, a direc¬ tion which was disregarded by order of the Emperor Augustus. The works of Aristotle suffered from neglect. They lay many years buried in a cellar, and when, by mere acci¬ dent, they wore at last unearthed, they were so damaged by damp and dirt that in many passages they are hope¬ lessly corrupt. How great would have been the loss of this work to the hu¬ man race may be judged from the fact that everything that was known In the middle ages of the arts and sciences was derived directly from these writ¬ ings. The Talmud nearly became extinct through persecution, The posses sion of the Talmud, by a long series of edicts extending over many cen¬ turies, was made penal, and the book itself was burned. No fewer than 24 wagon loads of Talmud manuscript were burned In France in 1244.—Stray Stories. The Model’* Hard Trial. Miss Siddnl had a trying experience. In order that the artist might get the proper set of the garments in and the right atmosphere and aqueous effects, she had to lie In a large bath filled with water, which was kept an even temperature by lamps placed beneath. One day, ju3t as the picture was nearly finished, the lamps out unnoticed by the artist, who so intensely absorbed in his work he thought of nothing else, nnd poor lady was kept floating in the cold water till she was nearly benumbed. She herself never complnined of this, but the result was that she a severe cold, and her father, an tioneer at Oxford, wrote to threatening him with an action of damages for his carelessness. paid the doctor’s bill, and Miss dal, quickly recovering, wns none worse for her cold bath.—Life of John Millais. Tommy’* Speech. Sue (who has Just been asked to something on the piano)—I really play anything. Tommy—But, I say, Sue, why you play that piece you spoke to me about? Sue—What piece? Tommy—Wliy, that one you told to ask you to play when we had com¬ pany ’cause you knew It better’n any of the others. I forget the name! Then Tommy was sent to sas City Independent Somewhat Mixed. A gentleman from a neighboring town in Mississippi told the following last night: “I walked into a small store the oth¬ er day and found the proprietor lying on the counter just dozing off into a sleep. He roused himself on my ap¬ proach, and, jumping to the floor, quoted the familiar line: “ ‘A horse! A horse! My kingdom for a horse!’ it« Where did you get that?’ 1 asked. “ ‘Oh, don’t you know? That’s what Absalom said when his horse ran un¬ der the tree and left him hanging by the hair to a limb. 1 thought every¬ body knew where that came from. t II Memphis Scimitar. Great City For Prayer, A visitor to Moscow soon discovers why it is called tho Holy City. Ev¬ ery 200 or 300 feet there is a cathedra?, church, chapel or shrine, nnd which¬ ever way you look you see people crossing themselves. Until one haa seen Moscow the piety of the place not easily understood. The cannot imagine Moscow conditions. cannot imagine church bells all the time and people praying in public streets at all hours of day night. Oa a Camel. The sensation has been likened to that which would be felt by mounting a stool placed on n springless cart driv¬ en over a plowed field. X found It all that and more. Next to walking bare¬ foot in chains, riding on camel back is, in the eyes of the Moors, the worst degradation they fan put upon their prisoners.—Grey's ’ In Moorish Captiv¬ ity.” __ Hardened. “now came a mail of your ability and position in society ever to engage in counterfeiting?” the judge asked him. “I wanted a light, easy way to make money at my own home, your honor,” answered the prisoner. The judge looked at him sharply and Qave him the full limit of the law.— Chicago Tribune. Fishermen In Holland kill all fish as soon ns they are landed, while French fishermen, on the contrary, al¬ low them to die of asphyxiation. There are no gutters in tlic streets of Cairo.
