DAMAGE TO THE COTTON CROP.
n.AI.NS IN GEORGIA HIVE GIVEN

Commissioner Stfvfnn Hut* a Few
■lore Da.a of Hein VVonld Prorc
•l*n*trou*—Cool Micbo nnd Damp
Atmosphere Have * aimed Mnch
Cotton to Beeome looiy Dry
Weather and Snnaliine Are Needed
to Improve the Crop.
Atlanta. Ga,, June 32.—Commissioner ®f
Agriculture Stevens estimates that the re
cent heovy rains have damaged the cot
ton crop In Georgia to an extent hitherto
undreamed of by the public. He thinks
a few more daya of rain will prove disas
trous.
Speaking of the serious situation Com
missioner Stevens said this afternoon:
"The cotton crop has suffered greatly
and is exceedingly full of grass. Hun
dreds of acre* of young cotton have not
yet been chopped out for the first time
In addition to this the cool nights end
damp atmosphere have caused a great deal
of the cotton to become lousy. Lousy
cotton never amounts to much. The fact
that some of the Georgia crop has be
come lousy will, of course, cause the
Georgia crop to be short
"However, if there should be. a few days
of dry weather with hoi sunshine a great
deal of the loss sustained during the past
few weeks would be recovered. But if
the weather continues damp and rainy for
many more days the prospect In Georgia
will be anything but flattering.”
CHARGES AGAINST ALDERMEN.
Searchlight Slay Be Turned on Two
Store Atlanta OtHotol*.
Atlanta, June 22 —Charges are the order
of the day in the municipal government of
Atlama. Just as the investlgaiion against
Chief of Police Manley had ceased, and
while that against Mayor Woodward is
hanging fire, the chance* now are that
two of the city aldermen will undergo the
m
s*m* ordeal.
The charges ore mod* against Aldermen
BeuteH and Day. by Joel Hurt of the Con
•olidated. Mr. Hurt does not say that
these gentlemen are boodle aldermen, but
he throws out that broad inference. When
the application of Mr. Hurt’s . company
for the electric light franchise was before
the aldermans- board. Mr. Hurt flatly told
Aldermen Beutell and Day that they were
not competent to vote on the question,
and asked th© board for an investigation
against them, saying he would produce
the proofs and would expose them.
Mr. Hurt's threatened exposure is
awaited tvUh a great deal of interest. It
is an unusual thing, even for Atlanta ;o
have her Mayor, chief of police, and two
of her aldermen under the searchlight
at one time, so much eo that the average
citizen is prone to exclaim ‘’next.”
REFI SED TO PAY THE TAXES.
Bank at Winder Claimed It Wai
Only a Brnnclt Institution.
Atlanta, June 22.—The Bank of Winder
has refused 10 ray taxes to the tax col
lector of Jackson county, alleging that it
is a branch of the Seroki Bank, one of
the Wltham banks, and that the returns
nere given in by that bank for both in
stitutions
The tax collector, however, did not look
at the matter in that light, and referred
the question to Attorney General Ter
rell, who / he'd the bank was liable for
taxation In Jackson county, and that It
was a separate institution If it was doing
business outelde the county, where the
parent bank was located.
The question will be adjudicated in the
Bupe:lor Coutl of Jackson county, June
M. Should it be proved that the returns
have been made from the bank at Senoia
then the state will have no further claim
in the matter, but the county will come
In for its share of the taxation.
COFFEE’S CONVICT CAMP.
Commissioners to Show Cause Why
It Shonld Vot lie Abolished.
Atlanta, June 22—The a-tlon takan
aga'nst the County Commissioners of
Coffee county by the Governor and the
Prison Commission promises to be of con
siderable interest.
The commissioners of the county are
ordered to appear before the Governor and
Frison Commission on July 5, to show
cause why the convict camp In Coffee
county should not be abolished. It seems
that the camp In question is a misde
meanor camp near McDonald's Mill. The
state warden visited it recently and found
it In a very unsatisfactory condition—ln
fact in a deplorable condition. There is
some question as to what the authority
of the Prison Commission in the mat
ter is.

HOODOO ON A H ANGING.
Attempted to t ost a Spell About the
Gallows, Bnt Failed.
From the St. Louis Republic.
Grief set all the skill of an old negro
hoodoo doctor at naught, and the
charms that were to have placed the
Governor of Missouri and the sheriff of
St. Louis county under their spell and
rave the g andson of the old doctor from
the gallows, failed:
At leas' that is the opinion of the rela
tiws of Reub n Dixon, an old man—some
say he was over Ift) years od—who died
at Webs er Groves a year or more ago,
and over the division of whose es ate the
aforesaid relatives are now fighting in
court. Those who knew that the old man
tried to hoodoo the Governor and the
sheriff kept the fact a secret until the
other day, when, in the probate court at
Clayton, one of the witnesses in the suit
over the estate inadvertently mentioned
It.
Reuben was an old Virginia slave, be
longing to a family named Dixon, This
family moved to Callaway county, Mis
souri. some years before the Civil War.
and it was then that the hoodoo power
was given to Reuben by an old Indian.
After the war had ended. Reuben and his
family moved to Webster Groves. There
he parcticel his weird art of "casting
spells" and grew wealthy—wealthy as
compared with his ne'ghbors, at least. His
children marrt-d, and to one of them,
Hester, who married a man named Fos
ter was born a son whom she named
Sam A few years ago Sam, grown to
manhood, was convicted of the murder
of Bertram Atwater, the Chicago news
paper artist, who was killed in the coun
ty one night while he was on his way
to visit his sweetheart
The old hoodoo doctor was an invalid
then. In the t me of the Civil War he had
contracted a disease which,had rendered
Useless his lower limbs and which crept
by slow degrees along his body. But his
mind had not been affected and his skill
as a hoodoo doctor—a skill which no ne
gro had ever questioned—had not desert
ed him. Lawyers had failed to clear his
grandson, but the old man was not hope
less. He declared that he would save him
—when the time came In the opinion of
the believers in his powers the fact that
he had to wait long for the proper time
was'lhe cause of Ihc failure of his plans
For In waitirg the old man brooded over
the p ril of his grandson and with brood
ing he became grief-stricken. His sorrow
weakened his mind and his memory lost
some of Its strength.
But the old man did not know this.
When the time had come, and his grand
son stood in the shadow of the gallows,the
old man had his daughter gather wild
toots and strange herbs, the crop of a
chicken killed at a certain period of the
moon, old bones of man, beast, and wild
fowl, dewdrops that were shaken from
the leaves of certain plants, and water
from a certain spring These he com
pounded in proportions that fie kept se
cret. and he heated and stewed them over
a certain kind of fire, in a certain kind of
pot. at a certain hour of the night, the
while he mumbled strange words in a
voice so low and a tongue so thick that
none bnt the spirit which he invoked
might catch their sound.
At last the brew had reached the proper
state, and the final incarnation was be
gun. The old man was half through
with it when he halted. A troubled look
came into his face. He had forgotten
some of the mystic, words. He began
again, nervously. But memory would
not be moved.
The crisis was passing. The pot on the
Are was giving forth steam of the prop r
volume and odor to carry the hoodoo pray
er to the hoodoo spirits. But the rid man
could not remember the proper words. His
mind sought them In vain, and then, des
perately. he substituted others that be
longed lo other prayers.
The old hoodoo was trembling. Hisvolce
was weak, and when the ceremony had
ended, moans of doubt and despair fell
from Ills lips. Then he began to pray to
the spirits—to plead w-lth them—to flatter
them, to move them to pity. And he
made sacrifices and humbled himself.
But the omission of the words from the
incantation was fatal to the charm. It
failed to cast a spell over the Governor
and the sheriff, and on the appointed day
the old man's grandson was hanged.
It was the only time Reuben had failed
—the only tints sines that day in the
woods, sixty years before, when the old
Indian had told him the secrei of the
mighty charm and bude him reveal it lo
no one. For three-score years the old man
had been casting spells. He had warded
off death from himself and from others;
he had reworded friends and punished en
emies, he had brought estranged lovers
to the marriage altar: he had saved habos
from the grasp of death; he had told where
lost or stolen property might he found;
he ahd dismissed the avil spirit of mur
rain and epizootic from cattle and hogs
and horsea; he had kept life In his body
for the more than thirty years which had
passed since he was attacked by that
strange disease which would have killed
any mnn not possessing the power of call
tng to hla protection the strange spirits.
All this he had done. But what was It
all compared to this final call upon the
spirits? Nothing. And In the hour of his
greatest need the spirits had failed him—
the charm had not worked. True, the In
cantation was not complete But the spirits
might have heard him anyhow and sup
plied the (ew links that were missing from
the witches' chain.
Never afterward did the old man call
upon the spirits. He set. day In and day
out. In the big old easy chair that had
been his home for thirty years, and croon
ed old hymns as a processional for ap
proaching death. His body grew weaker,
his pains more acute, And at lost the end
came
Many sought to gain from til® dying
hoodoo doctor the secret that the Indian
had imparted to him in the woods But
he drove them from him. To no mortal
did he ever reveal the words that gave

STATISTICS IN PRAYERS.
A Clergyman AVho Was Determined
Not to Exaggerate.
From the Richmond (Va.) Religious Her
ald.
It Is very befitting that the language of
prayer should be simple. To use great,
swelling words in a plea for mercy i*
surely a sign of deficient taste, not to say
of deficient piety. The brother who said:
"Lord, deliver us from our sinful diathe
sis,' was very young, but he, ought to have
known better. To one who begged for an
Increase of 'subjective intensity' was too
old to learn much. And what shall we say
of the one who overloaded hlssupp’icotions
with a dazzling array of statistics? When
people are in earnest, they do no: resort
to such (ricks of speech ”
Thus says the Nashville Christian Advo
cate. We recall an incident which seems
to illustrate the Advocate's remark about
statistics in prayers. It was during the
first visit of M: Moody to Richmond. The
great Armory Hal! was thronged. The*
leader of the meeting—not Mr. Moody
called upon one of the oldest and most
venerated of the local ministers, a man of
very simple and direct speech, to lead in
prayer. "We will join with Dr R in
prayer, and. Dr. R . we wiFh you to pray
for the twenty-three who last night re
quested prayer, and also for the forty
seven who to-night requested prayer.”
The direct and simple-hearted old minis
ter, when he reached that part of his pe
tition, prayed as follow?: "Oh, Lord, bless
the twenty-three persons who stood up
last night for prayer. Bless also, we be
seech thee, the forty-seven persons who
stood up to-night for prayer, although It
may be possible. O Lord, that some of
those who stood up to-night stood up also
iast night.” He was determined not to
mislead the Almighty or to make any mis
representation.

11RATED PIPPIN APPLE CIDER.
This pure cider Is served on steamers on
the American line, and at the Waldorf-_As
torla and lead ng family grocers in New
Yo.k city.
Pauldlrg s Pippin cider is made from
the pure juice ot hand picked apples from
his own mill on the premises. It Is abso
lutely pure apple juice, and all the effer
vescence is natural, and we guarantee it
to be the choicest cider in (he world.
Leading physicians in New York and
Brooklyn recommend this cider to their
patient*, its perfect purity is guaranteed.
In Paulding’s Pippin cider, only Long Is
land Newton’s Pippins are used. The ap
ples are left on the trees until late in Oc
tober when they are hand picked and
placed In a dry room to ripen.
Paulding says "the apples are thorough
ly crushed in his own mill and the juice
pressed out and run Into sweet clean
casks." The difference between crushing
and grinding apples is very great.
You will know the difference between
crushed app es and ground apples If you
