2 DAMAGE TO THE COTTON CROP. n.AI.NS IN GEORGIA HIVE GIVEN IT (tl ITG A SETBAC K. 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.

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 “THE POPULARITY OF Abollinaris JL * (“THE QUEEN OF TABLE WATERS") is chiefly due to its irreproachable character.” The Times . “DRINK NOTHING but Natural Mineral Water, such as Apollinaris, tree from all vegetable poisons.” Boston Journal.

If the < harm had never failed him, he might have explained io his daughter or son or. one of his grandchildren the mysteries of it all. But now the secret should go with him to the grave. 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. ■FECIAL NOTICES. TABLE D'HOTE.
