The editor of the Walton News aud Messenger is a little sensative because we referred to his youth last week. But he needn’t be. Any one would judge him to be young by reading his editorials and looking over his paper. Hon. W. C. Whitney, of New York, aud Carter Harrison, ot Ill inois, are .our favorites for the Democratic nomination for Pres ident and Vice President. These gentleipen, on a platform declar ing for currency and tariff reform, and against trusts, can sweep the country and would wrest the reins of government from Republican rule. , The Lawrenceville News-Herald says the democrats of Gwinnett county are overwhelmingly in fa vor of white primaries for the nomination of county officer*. The same sentiment prevails very generally among the democrats all over Georgia, and uo other method of making nominations will give perfect satisfaction and keep down dissensions in the party. It :s the fairest and best plan, and the Columbus Enquirer-Sun would like for it to be adopted by every county in the state. —Darien Ga zette. Rev. Simon Peter Richardson, one of the best known and in the mast active minister of the Meth odist Church of Georgia, is lying at the point of death at the home of his son-in law, Mr. William Legg, at 358 Washington Avenue, iu Macon. The extreme age of this venerable minister naturally precludes surprise among his friends in the state at the an nouncement that he is uearing his eud.

The recent in vestigations of the Dahlonega Con solidated Gold Miuirg Company in the fifteen properties in North Georgia owned by the corporation, has resulted, it is announced, in a determination to fully develop the Hand mine. The property is re garded by experts as probably the most valuable in the state, and up to the present time very little work has been put on it. The Hand mine is on an adjoining lot with the Yahoola, and the ore ta ken from the Finley mine could also be carried with ease to the stamp mill now in process of con struction at the Haud mine. President J. W. Adams of the mining company stated that the contract for the big stamp mill had been given Bix weeks ago, and that work on it had already be gun. A Good If an Gone. Mr. Jasper N.

Atlanta June 12.—While little has beer, said recently with refer ence to the smelting works soon to be constructed on the Chatta hoochee river near Atlanta, pre paratory work in that direction has been going on very actively for two months. The machinery is being made in Denver. Col., un der the directson of the owners of the works. Mr. W. P. Andrews, a prominent young attorney of this city, has received a letter from J. Edgar Black, vice president of the Southern Smelling Association, who is at present in Denver. “in Mr. Black’s letter,” said Mr. Andrews, “he states that his plant is now in course of con struction at Denver. It will have a capacity of 200 tons of ore a day. “Mr. Black,” said he, ‘ writes me that he will be in Atlanta at an early day for the purpose of constructing the necessary build ng.for the smelter upon the site which has t>eeii selected.” •‘Where will the smelter be lo cated?” “The smelter will be built upon the site secured from Capt. James W. English ninety days ago. It 'is situated on the hanks of the Chattahoochee river and is splen didly adapted to the purpose. In a few weeks, now, the buildings will be under way.” “The smelter, then, is a certain ty?” “Yes, and it will be the biggest thing for Atlanta yet. It will be worth more to this city than a dozen cotton factories or any oth er kind of factories. It will bring skilled labor and large sums of money to this city and will he the means of developing mines in this state of immense value and of pla-’ing upon the market hun dreds of thousands of dollars worth of mining lands which, as they now stand, would bring little or nothing. As a developer of Georgia nothing has yet been in troduced into this state compara ble to the gold smelter, and it will b e the grandest feature for Atlanta of them all.” The Other Ox Gored lu Philadelphia the other day a mob wanted to lynch a man who had frightened two little girls. The Philadelphia Times, is report ing the occurrence, says: “A de termined man had secured a Btout rope, and followed by over a score of others equally enraged, started in pursuit. The fugitive was caught,and less than it takes to tell dragged up the high bank and on a large vacant lot. He begged for mercy, but the crowd paid no attention to his cries and strag gles, as they pulled and jerked him over the ground toward a lamp post, over the cross-piece of which dangled a rope with a pre pared noose. The police came up at that time, and after a strug gle succeeded in rescueing the man amid cries of “Lynch him !” from men and women.” Aud yet a negro only two years younger than the late Sam Hose entered the same community a few weeks ago and succeeded in getting himself petted and pam pered because he claimed to be the son of the Georgia murderer .and rapist.—Macon Telegraph. riv* Thousand Recruits Wasted. New York, June 12—The report that 5,000 recruits will be called for to leave for active service in the Philippines immediately is substantiated by Uuited States army officers in this city, who state that they received orders yesterday to send to the Philip pines as many white recruits as possible, no definite number being stated. Boston, June 12 —New sigUß “Five Thousand White Recruits Wanted iu the Philippihes” are posted before recruiting stations here to day. His Idea of Luxury. A story is told of an old Arizona prospector who, after thirty years of bad luck, hardship and priva tion, finally “struck it rich” a few weeks ago iu the vicinity of Flag staff, and sold a half-interest in his “prospect hole” for $12,0(X) cash, savs the New York Tribune. ; When the money was paid over to iiim at the bank the cashier, who had known him for a long time, remarked casually: “Well, Bill, what are you going to do to make yourself comfortable and enjoy ilife, now you’ve got plenty of money '?” An Arkansas printer in making up the forms iu a hurrv the other day get a marriage notice and a grocer’s advertisement mixed up so that it read as follows: “John Brown and Ida Gray were united in the holy saner kraut by the quart or barrel. Mr. Brown is a well known young cod-fish at 10c. per pound, white the bride, Miss Gray, has some uice pigs’ feet which will be sold cheaper than at any store in town,” HENBY A. WISE ON CHIJCNET BOCK I What Virginia's Former Governor said of this Famous North Carolina Crag. Iu the midst of one of his im passioned speeches years ago, dur ing the “Know Nothing” com paigu, the late Henry A. Wise, formerly Governor of Viiginia, and perhaps its most eloquent or ator, stretched himself to his full height aud explained: “Those mountains which lift their hands to milk the clouds.” The old chap was without doubt referring to Chimney Rock. His index fin ger was pointing directly at Chimney Rock. Henry A Wise is dead. But Chimney Rock still lives. Henry A. Wise is immor tal. So is Chimney Rock.

During June and July eggs us ually get very cheap, in fact, are oft°n so lo<fr that it hardly paj s to gather them. A good plan during such timeß is to set 'hem, as the chickens are easily raised and cost much less than at any other season. Chicks hatched in July will after the first few duys require practically no food except what they gather themselves. Bugs and worms are abundant, and there are many kinds of seed ripe and ready for them. The nights are hot, and they can be allowed to roost anywhere, just so they have protection from heavy rains and security from rats and varmints. They will be ready for market a little before game begins to arrive, and the price will be better in proportion than for the large overgrown early chickens. The worst foe to contend with among late chicks i s lice, but if the mother is kept free during three weeks she sits, there will be but little trouble afterwards. Dust her well when set with in sect powder, and again after two weeks and at hatching time, and at hatching time, not a louse will be found on her. Should any ap pear afterwards, grease her under wings, and on top of her head with lard aud the trouble will end.—Exchange. Mr. Thomas Collins, of Sheltou ville, died last Thursday. He had been ailing for quite a while, and his death was not unexpected. Mr. Collins was seventy-eight years old, and had been a citizen of Mil ton county ever since the county was made. He was for years jus tice of the peace of the First dis trict, and we dare say the county never had a better justice. Squire Collins’s wife preceded him to the grave about a year ago, and since her death he has been forlorn and disconsolate. Full of years and honors, a good citizen has passed to his reward. Those who visit Sheltonville in the future will miss his familiar face and pleasant greeting. We shall not look upon his like agaiu. Peace to his ashes. —Alpharetta Free Press.

In Memory of Mrs. Carroll. Artie, daughter of Archiballand Macy Hamilton, was happily mar ried to John Carroll, October 21, 1878. Born December 28, 1846, and died May 15, 1899. Her 53 years shown bright and beautiful in the calendar of time.- At an early age she became a member of the Methodist church, It was to her a highway, where, if her heart’s best blood was shed, it nourished the blossoms of humili ty and faith. The love and self sacrifice bestowed on her family wore only exceeded by a devotion to Christ, in whose spirit pr wa ded all her works and ways. She lived every day that religion which makes the rough places emooth, and the dark ones light, and under its s«eet influence there were many who sought and found both smiles aud consolation. Minis tering to the sick, helping the needy, loyal to God and humanity, it was not strange that the little children should love her tender voice, and the aged find her a sympathizing friend. To me she was a counselor and a kind loving aunt, whose absence brings sor row indescriable. A gifted mind, with appreciation of all that was best iti art and nature, a deep sense of reverence and truth made up h-r character. Pure and mod est as the woodland violet, yet steadfast as the oak which gives it shelter. A few moments before she died she exclaimed: “Mother, oh, mother, I am almost there,” and clapping her hands together, ex claimed again: “Glory, glory, hallelujah, Jesus of Nazareth, blessed Jesus, is coming to carry me home.” So her soul went up to God, and death was swallowed up iu victo ry. It left imprints of every Chri stian grace, an example that is more than rubies, and a memory that shall ever more be blessed. The funeral occurred at Mt. Carmel church, where she held her membership, on Tuesday after noon, May 16, at 8 o’clock, and her remains were interred at the church cemetery in the* presence of a large concourse of relatives and friends, who had gathered in sadness to witness her iuterrment. She leaves a husband, one daugh ter and two step sous to mourn her loss. She is not lost butfgone before. Happy hour when we shall meet again, and sing praises to the Lamb.
