A Tragedy In An Elopement.
Covington, Ga., May 13.—A tragedy
occurred near Newborn, in Newton coun¬
ty, yesterday afternoon, that has woven
iu its startling plot love, romance, ven¬
geance and ma'riage.
In Morgan county, just over the line
from Newton, there lives the family of the
rich and well known planter, J. T. Estes.
He had a daughter and she had a lover
named Green. The family of the young
lady objected to the marriage of the
young people and they determined to
take matters in their own hands. Yester¬
day afternoon Wi 1 Green met Miss Estes
by appointment and the two proceeded
in a buggy to the residence of Rev. Mr.
Harwell, who was to perform the cere¬
mony. Just as the coup’e were getting
down from the buggy they saw Mr. Estes
and his son coining rapidly towards them.
Green quickly pulled a revolver and fired
at Mr. Estes, the ball entering near the
heart, killing t he farmer instantly. Green
then fired two shots at young Estes,
but without effect.
Leaving l er father dead in the road
and shot to death by her lover, and her
brother bending over tbeinanimateform,
Miss Estes went on with her lover to
Broughton vdle, where they weremarrird.
The sheriff of Newton county has re¬
ceived a telegram stating that a reward
of $250 has been offered for the capture
of Green.
The New Bonds.
Atlauta, Ga., May 13.—The new bonds
sold on the first of May to the Columbus
Savings Bank to redeem the $200,000 of
Northeastern Railroad bonds were receiv¬
ed by Governor Atkinson today and will
be delivered just as soon as they can be
signed. It has been the custom in the
past to place the likeness of theGovernor
on bonds issued during the several ad
ministrations.
Col. Bob Hardeman, the treasurer in
the present issue made an innovation,
the port ra it of M rs. Atkinson being placed
on the bonds instead of the Governor.
Col. Hardeman thought this would be an
appropriate honor to Mrs. Atkinson f)6r
her great work in behalf of the Girls Nor¬
mal and Industrial College, as well as
commemoratiug the loyal spirit with
which she has always shared her hus¬
band’s political works.

Uses of Salt.
One pint of fine salt mixed with two
pints of wood ashes and mixed with wa¬
ter will mend cracks in stoves, says an
exchange. When clinkers accumulate on
the grate, throw in a handful of salt, let
stand a few minutes, and they will beeas
ilv removed. A teaspoonful added to the
water in which cut flowers are placed will
preserve them for a considerable time,
and a little rubbed on the griddles before
greasing will prevent cukes from sticking.
Damp salt will removo the discoloration
caused by tea on cu}>» and saucers; if
sprinkled immediately over nuy spot
where something has boiled over on the
stove there will be no odor and the spot
will be easily cleaned. A teaspoonful put
in a kerosene lamp will make the oil give
a brighter light, and a small pinch added
to the starch will prevent it from sticking
to the irons. If your ingrain carpet looks
dingy, sprinkle a little salt over it and
let it lie for at least five minutes, then
sweep it thoroughly and you will be sur¬
prised to see how much brighter it will
look. One of the best things for cleaning
brass is salt dissolved in vinegar. Cot¬
ton fabrics are less likely to fade if allow¬
ed to lie for a short time in a strong so¬
lution of suit water. Sprinkle damp salt
around where there are moths and
will speedily take their departure. If a
small pinch is added to the white of eggs
they will froth quickly. Small doses giv¬
en at short intervals will stop hemmor
rhage of the lungs; for stings or bites of
any kind of insects apply it damp and
bind tightly; for neuralgia or severe pains
in the stomach, fill a muslin bag, heat it
and lay it against the aching places. If
the throat is ve-y sore wring a cloth out
of salt water and bind around the neck,
covering with a dry towel; a weak solu¬
tion gargled will also help the throat.
A sponge bath in salt water will arrest
night sweats, and if used cold, is one of
the best lotions for restoring firmness of
the flesh; bathe the face upward and then
wipe dry. One-half a spoonful dissolved
in a little water will almost iustontly re¬
lieve dyspepsia, or cure colic iu a grown
person. Two spoonfuls in about a half
pint of tepid water will act as an emetic,
or if snuffed up the nostrils will relieve a
cold in the head or catarrh. Salt should
be eaten with nuts to aid digestion.
A WEEK IN WASHINGTON.
A Weekly Letter from Our Regular
Correspondent.
Washington, May 10,1895.
Secretary Carlisle has long since ceased
to uoliee published misrepresentations
concerning himself or the Treasury de¬
partment, but he had to smile when the
story reached Washington that the pop
ulists were making campaign material
out of the alleged alarm of Treasury of¬
ficials at the purchase of gold bullion
from western miners by the syndicate
which purchased the last issue of bonds.
This silly story went on to say that it
was the purpose of the syndicate to make
a corner in gold and after the price had
been forced up to make a raid on thegold
in the treasury and force another big is¬
sue of bonds to replenish it. There never
was a more ridiculous story concocted
upou a basis partially true. It has been
well known that the syndicate mentioned
has been buying gold from western miners
for the last two months, but it has also
been equally well known that it was
bought iu order that the syndicate might
live up to its contract with the govern¬
ment, which called for the turning of so
much gold into the treasury within a cer¬
tain period. There has been no alarm
on the part of the treasury officials sim¬
ply because there has been nothing to be
alarmed about. The reason why the gold
was bought from the western miners was
that the premium at which it could be
bought was less than it cost to ship it
from Europe, thus making its purchase
over here profitable tothesyndicate. The
contract with the syndicate stipulates
that one half the gold paid intothetreas¬
ury for the bonds shall come from Eu¬
rope and the contract has up to this time
been kept to the letter. The last pay¬
ments will not be due until next October.
Ex-Senator Butler, of South Carolina,
who made many warm friends during his
eighteen years service in the Senate, left
Washington, with his family, this week,
for his home. He says he is now out of
politics and does not again ex i>ect to (a ke
an active part, but those who know /liim
best say it will be simply an iiapo sibil
ity to keep him quiet when there is fight¬
ing going on.
Many shrewd observers believe that,
with more prosperous times there will
come a radical change in the sentiments
of a majority of those who now advocate
the free coinage of silver because they be¬
lieve almost any change must be for the
better. For instance, two, democrats
from widely separated states—Judge
Montgomery, of Michigan, and Judge
Berry, of Georgia,—who happened to be
in Washington this week, thus diagnosed
the silver ease in their respective states:
Judge Montgomery—“I think the repub
hcans . of Michigan fully much , di¬ ,.
are as
vided on the silver question as the demo¬
crats. Some of the most influential men
in the republican party out there are
thoroughly imbued with the free silver
sentiment. My own belief is that we have
seen the maximum agitation on that sub¬
ject. I do not think it will be a factor in
the Presidential election next year, and
do not expect either of the great parties
to declare as to silver coinage, af¬
firmatively or negatively.” Judge Berry
says: “It looks to me as though a great
portion of the southern people had gone
crazy on silver. I guess they will get over
it in time and will wake up some day to a
realization of the folly of such a policy.
Of all the people in the United States the
southern people ought to stand most in¬
flexibly in favor of a sound currency.
They don’t mine an ounce of silver and
their chief product, cotton, is valued on a
gold basis on the other side of the Atlan¬
tic. At present the silverites are howling
with the same fervor that the disciples of
the old greenback doctrine displayed, but
a year from now under the quieting in¬
fluence of better times theirardor may be
abated and the movement may die out
as completely as the flat money craze
did.”
The completed model of the equestrian
statue of Gen. Winfield Scott Hancock
was exhibited today to a number of prom¬
inent people, in the studio of Mr. H. J.
Ellicott, the sculptor selected by thecom
mission charged by Congress with the
duly of superintending the making and
erection of the statue. The model made
an excellent impression on those whosaw
it, the likeness in face and figure of Gen.
Hancock being especially commented up
on.
President Cleveland is uncertain as to
when he will leave Washington for the
summer. He would like to go to Gray
Gables when Mrs. Cleveland and the chil¬
dren go, which will be in the neighbor¬
hood of the first of June, but it will de¬
pend entirely upon circumstances wheth¬
er he does.
Secretary Gresham has so fur recovered
from his recent illness that he is going
away for a short rest. Things in his de¬
partment are all in good shape, notwith¬
standing the many republican predictions
of the serious trouble which a&ns.certain
to result from some of the recent eompli
catious with loryign gqvevumeqU.
John Ross Ruminating.
Editor Times:
The definition of the word science is
“knowledge of things reduced to prac¬
tice,” Here is a problem in reduction I
cannot work. Mineralogy teaches that
the world has had three formations, “pri
mary, » a secondary” and “tertiary.” All
the pine trees on the primary formation
were swallowed up, the decayed vegetable
material forming coal, etc., consequently
our coal oil or kerosene we are now using
must be fossilized spirits of turpentine,
distilled by the heat of the earth. But
who cut those boxes? Who did the chip¬
ping? Were they colored men or who?
Where were Dink Smith and Ben Sharpe?
If anyone can work it out I would like to
see the solution of it.
I made a visit to the still oi W. H.
Sharpe & Co. the other day, trying to
gain information. The first gentleman
I met was Thomas A Wilson, who oe
ocupies the position of superintendent of
the agricultural department. 1 find he
has the care of over 500 acres this firm
has planted in corn, oats and peas. The
decision of character this gentleman is
endowed with insures success. If any of
the hands in hie charge show the least
disposition to be stubborn another takes
his place instantly, and so on through
his daily routiue of business.
The next department I visited was the
machine and blacksmith shops, and found
Geo. I*. Grooms master mechanic. This
young man, when he can spare the time,
is learning to still, no doubt having an
idea of being proprietor of a turpentine
ontfit some day, as his prosfiective fath¬
er-in-law has a large body of land. That
is right, George, go to the head.
My next visit was to the still, where 1
found Win. Henry Dutton on deck hav¬
ing full control. Here there are two stills
with a capacity of twenty barrels each.
The rapid manner in which he turns out
spirits shows he understands his busi
ness. The manner in which these stills are
built, the arrangements for handling the
crude material, and the labor-saving de¬
vices are all pronounced by competent
judgesjto be the most complete any where.
This firm employs four woods-riders,
Mr. Ben Sharpe looking after this depnrt
inent. The horso he rides is named
“Twister,” which is very appropriate.
The manner in which he can twist around
the woods and keep an qve on the colored
individuals would make anyone’s head
swim. This firm is doing well. They keep
a well filled store, in the rear of which the
young men are taken care of, having their
rooms, which are well furnished. I saw
clothing enough hanging on pegs to start
a “shiney store.” Before leaving two of
them said they had something to show
me. Judge my surprise when they took
me out to the road and showed me a tiny
footprint, which was carefully covered
with a piece of board so that the vulgar
mules could not obliterate it. On inquir¬
ing I found the track was of a young la¬
dy who had just passed, and that the
young men in question have serious in¬
tentions of laying seige to her heart.
Alex Stewart has “struck oil,” one oL
his hogs coming home the other morning
with eleven young pigs.
Crops are doing well—cotton all chop¬
ped out and corn knee high. Tom Mor¬
ris has a net piece which looks well. Eli
Thompson is working hard and faithfully
and will reap a rich reward at gathering
time. Shep Hagins’ garden is all that
anyone can expect. English jieas on the
table these last two weeks. The fruit
prospect is grand, and all you will have
to do is name what fruit you want and
you can soon get it.
I hate to borrow trouble, not beingcon
stituted that way (neither do Ifretabout
the spots on the sun or rings around the
moon), but if some signs I have noticed
these last four moons do notchunge, look
out for a blow that will lift the fruit and
furniture from tlvc face of the earth. There
will bo a shower of bedsteads, stove pipes
and frying pans, the same as they have
in Kansas once in awhile. I am going
by nautical signs, some of which do not
hold good on land in consequence of the
magnitude in the earth, but if this hurri¬
cane does not occur here it will close by.

“I will say to the north, give up, and
to the south, keep not baek; bring my
sons from afar and my daughters from
the ends of the earth.”
“The I.ord hare called thee in right¬
eousness, and will hold thine hand, and
will keep thee, and give the for a cove¬
nant of the people, for a light of the Gen¬
tiles; to open the blind eyes, to bring out

“Jesus has redeemed the world ami
gone to heaven, leaving us to evangelize
it. Redemption is his—evangilization is
ours. He has put the word into our lips.
Jesus has redeemed the world, and two
thirds of humanity do not know thut
they have been redeemed because they
have not been told.”—Guinness.
The Lord is the Christian's “rock of
salvation, as the rivers of water in a
dreary place.” How refreshing when re¬
ally hungering and thirsting for right¬

“Rock of Ages,” only as taught by our

Good Report From Mexico.
The following letter from one of the
faithful missionaries of the Woman's
Board, addressed to Dr. Morrison, shows
the devotion of the little band to their
work. The example of self-denial set tiy
these missionaries might be followed with
profit to all our people at home—profit
to their souls and to the cause of mis¬
sions. Wo ought to be stimulated at least
to sustain these consecrated women in
their blessed work. Read the letter:
Rev. II. C. Morrison, Secretary—I)e^r
Brother: I seud you a mnalVcollection,
not of flowers, but of facts, from Saltillo,
which you may be able to use. We ob¬
served “Do-Without Week,” when our
members gave au average of ft each for
the cause of missions. Even the poorest
contributed, giving from one to four cents
each night. Some literally gave their
“all.” Their .willingness to give was
bounded only by their ability. We are
forced to believe that the love of Christ
called forth these evidences of devotion.
In our normal department four profes¬
sional teachers and a lawyor and a con¬
gressman are teaching a class each for us
without receiving pay. If paid their ser¬
vices would be worth at least f200 per
month. This means that their interest
in and appreciation of what we are trying
to do for the benefit of their people
prompts them to help us to this exte it;
or it means that these six Mexican gen¬
tlemen are contributing the sum of f 200
per month to help carryforward the work
of the Woman’s Board of Foreign Mis¬
sions in Saltillo. We think that this fact
should be known to the homcchurch. We
have never asked such a Savor of anyone.
When these friends learned that we were
about to have to give up this department
for want of funds to sustain it, they vol¬
unteered their services.

Take Courage^ Heart.
Our failures lead to nobler things;
Through losing we attain,
And souls with bruis’d and broken wings
May soar to heaven again.
Though overborne and backward thrust,
By soverign foes assailed;
Tuke courage, heart, iu Jesus trust,
And win where thou hast failed.
In vain the notes that sound retreat
On noble spirits call,
One moment they may taste defeat,
The next they conquer all.
Thou wilt be, it thy cause is just,
At last a victor hailed:
Take courage, heart, in Jesus trust,
And win where thou hast failed.
O, not alone are they who yield
To burdens sore and great;
The iiobh'-t ou life's battlefield
Have sank beneath their weight;
But rising bravely from the dust,
They battled and prevailed;
Tuke courage, heart, in Jesus trust,
And win where thou hast- failed.
