Athena haa ordered au election on a propoaition to vote SIOO,OOO for street improvements. Rev. SanTsmall ia going into bankruptcy, in Washington. He puts his liabilities at $12,000, and his available assets at $250. Joe Menko, a well known citizen of Atlanta, committed suicide in a hotel, at Mobile, Ala., one day last week, by shooting himself through the breast with a pistol. Two brothers'were hanged upon the same scaffold, in Montgom ery, Ala., last Friday. They were desperate negroes, and were hanged for murder committed last August. Col. Lee Jordan, one of the oldest and wealthiest planters in the south, and a prominent citizen of Macon, is dead. He died very suddenly at his home in Macon Sunday morning. The senatorial contests in Penn sylvania, Nevada, California and other states should make many converts, not only in those states, but elsewhere, to the plan of elect ing senators by popular ballot. Walter Howard, who has been engaged on the Atlanta papers, and for some time past on the New York Journal, has been made the European editor of the later paper, with headquarters in London. Malcolm Johnson, through his attorneys, Messrs. Hoke Smith and H. C. Peeples, has filed a pe tition in Fulton superior court asking for a receiver for the At lanta National Building and Loan association. The Phi Kappa society of the University of Georgia has exten ded an invitation to Hon. Joseph W. Baily, of Texas, to deliver the annual < ration before the literary societies of the University during the next commencement week. The city of Athens has had the old double-barreled cannon of the Mitchell Thunderbolts mounted in the park in front of city headquar ters That is the only double barreled cannon in the world and was invented by Mr. John Gille land, of Athens, in 1863. Ruben C. Hayden, one of the best know young insurance men of Atlanta, died Sunday morning at 2 o’clock at the residence of his sister, Mrs. Harry Hightower, 167 West Peachtree street. His death resulted from typhoid pneumonia, with which he became ill January 14th. There is a movement on foot among two or three of the rail roads entering Athens to erect a union depot in that city. At present there are four different depots in as many sections of the city and the inconvenience is very great. The people of Athens will lend every assistance to the rail roads to make this movement a success. The store of Mr. Moultrie M. Sessions, which wsb occupied bv the firm of Florence Bros. & Co., carrying about the largest stock of goods of any merchaut in Marietta, was destroyed by fire Sunday morning. The fire is supposed to have orignated from the stove flue. The entire stock of goods, which inveutried $14,000, is almost a complete loss. Insurance about $7,000. The cotton receipts of Athens for this season will not fall far short of the receipts for last sea son, despite the facts that through freight rates for this year have been higher than those of last year. The receipts last year were 96,000 bales, and this year they will probably reach 90,(X)0. Al ready the receipts have reached 70,000 bales and the receipts for the balance of the season will be about 20,000 bales. There is considerable specula tion not only in Athens, but all ovc the state also, concerning the approaching selection of Chancell or of the University of Georgia. The resignation of Chancellor Boggs, tendered to the trustees last June, takes effect next Com mencement, and although that time is five months distant the public interest is lively as to who the succesor of Chancellor Boggs is to be. Paul Perry, of Columbus, Ga., suffered agony for thirty years, and then cured his Piles by using De Witt’s Witch Hazel Salve, It heals injuries and skin diseases like magic. Bagwell Bros, of Lawrencevill, and Dr. Hinton, of Dacula. A PROGRESSIVE MAYOR. The News-Herald is gratified at the admirable start made by Law renceville’s new Mayor-elect, Hon, Oscar Brown, aided as he is by an ■ able set of councilmea. Since their induction into office the streets are taking on a differ ent appearance, the sidewalks are being cleared of chicken-coops and rubbish, and the town begins to look like it is coming to the front as a progressive, wide-awake place. If the progressive citizens of the city will but encourage and up hold our worthy mayor and the city couucil in their admirable and praiseworthy beginning, ere the springtime Lawrenceville will be a clean little city and thorough ly inviting to strangers. Of course the sanitary condition of the town will be looked after, and the back alleys, back yards and out-houses will undergo a thorough overhauling. This done, Lawrenceville will be in po sition to invite summer visitors, and being blessed with pure air, high altitude, good churches and society as good as can be found anywhere in Georgia, there is no reason why she should uot make headway and forge to the front as one of the leading health and pleasure resorts of the state. A progressive mayor and a wide awake city council are the leading factors, and the advance guard, of any city’s prosperity. MORMON ISM. The press of Georgia is quite right in condemning Mormonism. The recent election to congress of a man who has three living wives and an advocate and practitioner of polygamy, has somewha., open ed the eyes of the people to this peculiar and contemptible reli gious belief and practice. The el ders seem to be working mostly among that class of our people who are not as highly educated as some others, and are making converts in and around us. Society is dependent upou the sancity of the marriage relation as laid down in the Bible, and when it ceases to exist then will come not only chaos but ruin. Mormon 'ism seeks to establish a new and radically different society and one which if permitted to run, will do away with the purity of society in toto. Legislation seems not to prohib it the nefarious doctrine, and it becomes necessary for our people to arouse themselves and prevent the introduction of these doctrines among them. It cannot be too severely con demned, and we insist upon our people giving its emissaries ths cold shoulder and a prohibition to the publication of their belief. Those loving the purity of the family and society should see that Mormonism does not get a foot hold in our country. —Elberton Star. Mr. H.A, Pass, Bowman, Ga., writes: “One of my children was very delicate and we despaired of rais ing it. For months my wife aod I could hardly get a night’s rest until we began the use of Pitts’ Carminative. We found great re lief from the first bottle.” Pitts’ Carminative acts promptly and cures permaueutly. It is pleasuut to the taste, aud children take it without coaxing. It i 9 free from injurous drugs and chemicals. Hon. E. R. Sharpe, editor of the Carrollton Free Pree, died sudden ly of apoplexy, on Friday. He ouly lived half an hour after being stricken. Mr s Sharpe was a gal lant member of Gen. Joe Wheeler’s cavsiry, during the civil war, and has represented Carroll county several times in the legislature, since the war. He has been editor of the Carrollton Free Press for many years, and was prominent in the business circles of Carrollton. The best way to avoid sickness is to keep yourself healthy by taking Hood’s Sarsaparilla, the great blood purifier. It is stated by a New York cor respondent that the slight revival of the cotton market is being helped “by the overflow of Wall street speculation.” It could have been hoped that the overflow had taken place a little earlier, when the cotton was in the hands of the producers. It seems a little odd that there should have been such great activity in stocks and bonds lately, with prices booming up ward, and at the same time so little interest in cotton. HAS DONE MUCH GOOD. “I had catarrh in the head and could find no relief uutil I began taking Hood’s Sarsaparilla, which cured me. Mv sister has been re lievd of rheumatism by Hood’s, and my little brother took it after j serious illness and it restored his etrength. It cured my father of effects of sun-stroke.” Sam Cain, Whigham, Georgia. HOOD’S PILLS cure nausea, headache. i THE EVERETT CONCEBT GB\ND “In the entire history of piano ma king in America few instruments have compelled more critical praise from the trade press and expert musical au thorities than the new scale Everett concert grand piano. It has been just ly said that this instrument marks an epoch In grand piano development. A thoroughly impartial investigation of its merits reveals a volutnn and quality of tone, a most delicious touch and a thoroughness of manufacture that shows that no money has been spared to make a perfect instrument architec turally, as well as musically. For all purposes of interpretation, the Everett grand possesses the essential elements demanded by the world’s few great virtuosi. “It is safe to assert that when this in strument is brought more prominently into public notice, as it will be in due time, it will create a virtual sensation. In these days when commercialism dominates the artistic as well as the everyday world, it is gratifying to all in sympathy with the artistic phases of the piano business to note the con sistent policy of the Everett Co. in con stanly improving their instruments, and completely remodeling their man ufactories and placing them in charge of experts for the purposes of artistic piano production of the highest order. “It is no easy task to make progress even with such creditable and com mendable objects in view, for it is la boring for the future, so to speak, in stead of today. But for a firm like the Everett Co , who understand that suc cess is simply doing one thing well, the way is clear, the end sure. ‘Blow by blow, through earth and rock, they will toil till a final stroke shall break through to the crumbling quartz and lay bare the yellow ore of realization.’ Thus will success be won.” The above criticism of the Ev erett piano and the Everett Facto ries is taken from the Musical Trade Review published in New York under date of December 17, 1898. Our New Everett piano in upright, adapted for all classes of work has not been surpassed by the magnificent grand of which the Editor writes. These instruments are now offered by the very best dealers in the south at prices which in many cases are very little in ex cess of the cheap commercial pi anos of which the country is now well supplied. Investigation costs but little, comparisons are very beneficial. Write us and we will tell you where you can purchase the Everett piano from your near est Dealer and at the smallest price at which the very highest grade goods made can be sold. The John Church Co., Cincinnati, New York, Chicago, 99 Peachtree St,, Atlanta, Ga. GARNER. Bpedal to THE NEWS. Newton M. Reid, of Redan, and J. C. Pounds, of Stone Mountain, are both very low with pneuniouia. H. O. Billne has moved from near Stone Mountain to Hall coun ty. Mr. Tom Higgins, living on the Rockbridge road south of Stone Mountain, will, in a short while, move back to Lawrenceville, where he has enjoyed many pleasant days. Mrs. Mary Campbell, relicit of the late “Babe” Campbell, ot Stone Mountain, died Saturday last from a severe attack of pneu monia, affecting both lungs. At the time she was in an advanced stage of consumption which caused her to be less able to resist the dis ease. She was a fine lady of many excellent attributes, a member of the Methodist church. LaGrippe, or pneumonia, ap pears to be a disease prevailing to a considerable extent throughout the whole country. There is in medical circles some speculation as to what promotes or causes the disease. In some localities it ap pears to be epidemic, in others spasmotic. There is doubtless no particular local causes, but may be traced to atmospheric. A damp, chilly atmosphere is not healthy unless well guarded. When pers piration, however small and im perceptible, is suddenly checked by leaving a warm room or after free exercise, or riding out iu a damp chilly wind will often give you cold, which causes these diseases. It is in my opinion much better to walk than ride, and it is always best to keep in regular exercise , when exposed to a damp, chilly at mosphere. Through the country there ap pears to be much complaint re garding school books—a new series to buy every once and awhile. Ed ucational boards, like other peo ple, are apt to err iu some of their decisions They no doubt make some errors in their recommenda tions of certain text bocks. But it should be remembered the world is makiug a gradual change all the while. What the people a gener ation ago admired the people now do not admire in every respect, and it will be so in every succeed ing generation. Something For Nothing. We have heard of the boy who wan ted to eat his cake and keep it too, but never before of a business man who sold his goods and then gave the pur chaser credit for the amount paid. To learn about this send to James Vicks Sons, of Rrchester, N. Y., who agrees to do this in their Guide. The Golden Wedding edition of Vick's Garden and Floral Guide is certainly an artistic work, with its twenty-four pages lith ographed in colors, and nearly one hundred more pages titled with hand some half-tone illustrations, photo graphed from Flowers, Fruits, Vegeta bles and homes. While this Guide is really too expen sive to give away, they give it with a Due Bill for 25 cents worth of seeds for only 15 cents. Auother new feature is the doing away with the old packet of Vegetable Seeds and stating the quantity in each case, the buyer get ting more for his money. To relieve Mental Worry, cure De spondency and give refreshing Sieep, use Simmons Squaw Vine Wine or Tablets. CENTREVILLE. Special to THE NEWB.
