President Sinking.
As we go to press the an¬
nouncement comes that l’res
ident McKinley’s condition
is critical. The strongest
possible heart stimulants are
being used and grave appre¬
hension is felt by his physi
cians. A change for the
worse came late yesterday
evening and deluged the peo¬
ple with- doubt and anxiety.
The confidence with which
his physicians have declared
he would recover had calmed
the fears of the people, but
the news from his bedside
this morning is such as to
disturb them and further
news is anxiously awaited

GOVESNORS LIFE THREATENED.
It is said that Governor
has received at least
fifty lcliiets threatening his
since lie lias been in bis
present position. Nine were
received from Screven conn
ty last month, telling him his
life would be taken if he al¬
lowed the sentence to be car¬
ried out in the case of the
fivo negroes that were hang¬
ed there.
The Governor was not
by these threats and
he may have been in
great danger.
Prof. J. E. Powell has pur¬
chased the Forsyth »/ Chroni
e’e, one of the best weekly
newspaper properties in the
state. Brother Powell starts
out well, and knowing him
as we do, can sa}^ that his
success is assured if the peo¬
ple of Monroe county appre¬
ciate a good things
The announcement that
Admiral Sampson is “oft"’
mentally was not made until
after Admiral Schley had de¬
manded an investigation,
lias this anything to do with
Sampson’s condition?
Admiral Schley has drawn
first blood, so to speak, in
his now famous court of in¬
quiry. IBs objection to Ad
miral Ilowison was sustained
by Dewey and Ben ham and
the court has been adjourned
until the third judge can be
named. All justice-loving
people hope that he may con¬
tinue to knock out his perse¬
cutors to the end of the list.
Atlanta is never to be left.
It was an Atlanta negro who
knocked the would he assas
sin to the ground after lie
had tired two bullets into the
body of President McKinley.
The negro’s name is Parker
and Atladta claims him as
her very own. That blow,

which prevented the assassin
firing other shots, was about
the best one Parker ever de¬
livered.
Col. W. A. Hemphill has
sold his stock in the Atlanta
Constitution to Editor Clark
Howell and will retire from
the position of business man¬
ager of that paper January
1st. Editor Howell will own
the majority of stock, will be
president of the company and
editor-in-chief of the great
pap3r. Mr. Roby Robinson
has secured a large stock in
the paper and will be the
business manager, The Con
stitution will continue to be
the greatest paper in the
south,
There is not room enough
in th : s country for anarchists,
and the first duty of the peo¬
ple to the ; r country should be
to search them out and place
them where no possible harm
can come from them, It is
truly alarming that such a
man as President McKinley
sh uld be marked by even a
cbm opposed to both govern¬
ment and civilization, It Is
time to rid the country of
them.
The Atlanta Journal is
waging a vigorous war on
Senator Wellington, of Ala¬
ry land, and urges his expul
s j on from the senate because
of the following remarks of
the Senator on the shooting
of President McKinley :
(i McKinley and I are enemies. I have
nothing good to say about Dim, and nu
der the circumstances do not care to say
anything bad. I am indifferent to the
whole matter.”
Ail senators are not big men
as the above clearly indicates
The r poison in that man’s
heart would kill a rattle
snake.
Don’t forget my cigars and
tobaccos. As good as market
affords.
Parlor Grocery Store.
An Ideal Grocery Store.
If you want to see an ideal gro
cerry store, one in which the dus¬
ting brush and damp cloth plays
as much part as it does in the dry
goods store or the home, just call
at the Parlor Grocery Store, A. J.
Summers, proprietor. It is sel¬
dom that a grocery store is mis¬
taken for a well kept drug store,
but it frequently happens that
people enter the Parlor Grocery
Store and call for drugs. This is
indeed a clean store, one in which
yi u feel it would be pleasant to
rest and admire the taste and
cleanliness of the proprietor and
his assistant, Mr, Henry Everette.
There is always something new
to be found here--something good
to eat. This is interesting with¬
in itself, but not so striking as the
varied stock of fancy groceries.
Taken all to-gether, you can buy
almost anything you want from
this stock at reasonable prices.
To enumerate all that it contains,
would require more space than
we command, and more time than
we can spare. But to make a
short story, just step in at the
Parlor Grocery Store and look
about you. It will pay you well—
but not as well as it would, should
you give thes store ) our patron¬
age.
