STATE PRESS SIDELIGHTS.
According to The Schley County News
‘‘some men are born great, others achieve
greatness, while others manage to ffrow
smaller day by day.” Does Tlie News
belong to the Bryan or Cleveland parti
sans?
It is a generally accepted theory that
salvation Is free, but when the announce
ment is sent out that John D. Rocke
feller is dabbling in it so extensively, Tim
Rome Tribune cannot repress an uneasv
feeling, fearing probably a corner on
harps.
The Waycross Herald says: A middle
Georgia paper remarks that “the stock
a ma n takes in his church pays him bet
ter .end makes han rich faster than any
other stack within his reach.” Il is bet
ter than steel; yea, stronger than amal
gamated coi| per.
The Columbus Enquirer-Sun quotes an
exchange as saying tnat "a college edu
caii n is good for a boy after lie gets
over it.” As a usual thing ho must
re.-over from the absurdities before be
can utilize the advantages, but he does
finiiil.y iearn that ho hasn't learned it
all
Says Editor Gr< r; “A woman's smile
does na :-.v.a.,s num a woman’s ap
pro. al.” Edio;- B i euillet thinks ho is
finding It out late in life, but it Is in
formation win, h u,ii.st come some time,
so why not now. This brings up the
quest! m of the ages, does a woman act
from moiive or impulses, and if she
doesn't know her own mind, who does?

POISONED'BE lIITI NG
CABBAGE.
People of Northeast Georgia Greatly
Excited Over Appearance of
jr es t—State Chemist Says
Worm Contains Deadly
Poison.
Gainesville. Ga.. Otober 21.—(Special.)—
What kind of Insect, reptile or “varmint”
is it that Is ruining the etbbage of ths
farmers in northeast Georgia?
That Is the question tbjt is the all-ab
sorbing topic through White, Towns, Un
ion, Dawson, Forsyth and other counties
in Hits section of the state where cabbage
are grown extensively for the market.
Gainesville is the principal distributing
point for the people of the above named
counties, and since the news lias reached
this city of the serious consequences aris
ing from the discovery of the insect or
reptile found in some of the cabbage, tlie
market has been glutted and there is no
sale tor this v.getable here.
Some days ago a farmer in White coun
ty while gathering cabbage discover'd
a small worm or what appeared to be a
worm, in a head of cabbage, lie inspect
ed it closely and found it to be about two
inches long ami about Hie size ot an or
dinary needle.
lie says it licked its tongue out like
a snake when he touched the leaf it was
on, and that it was shaped very much
like a snake.
lie became alarmed and to satisfy him
self as to wiiat it was lie sent it to the
slate 'dieinist lor ana.j sis to see whether
~r not u was poisonous. The .-tale cl" --.i
Ist analyzed it and reported that there
v. as enough poison in the tiling to kill
hiiV-ii persons.
hinny Mysterious Deaths.
When tlie news came back of the dead
ly poison in the reptile or insect, con
sternation spread throughout the cab
bage belt. A g.-neral discussion of the af
fair brought to light the fact that a num
ber ot people have recently died in White
and Forsyth counties from mysterious
causes, and each death has occurred
alter cabbage had been eaten.
A. man by the name of Dyer brought
one of the little things to Gainesville
Saturday in a bottle ot alcohol in which
it nad been preserved and it was viewed
by hundreds "f pi-’.'ple. It was not owr
iwo inches long and looked exactly like
a small snake.
Mr. Dyer states that several deaths
l ad occurred in While county where he
iiV'-s from eating cabbage in which it
v.as believed one of these little things ;
had been cooked. They are so small that
it is dilficult for a housewife to wash
ihem out of th'- vegetable when prepar- I
ing ill- in for cooking.
The discovery of Die poisonous worms
m reptiles in Hie cabbage has result- d ia
cutting this vegetable from the menu
card in this section of northeast Geor
gia. ami the farmers are greatly agitated
over the matter.
