Besides the regular business, memorial services will be held in honor of the late brother Past Grand Sire, Luther J. Glenn, a notice of which is else where in this column.

Why not be adopted and save your scalp? You will join a noble tribe that will be more staunch and true than the original Red Men of the Forest.

The Experience of Two Atlanta Drummer* In Alabama. Quite an interesting talc of the unpleasant experience of two Atlanta drummers, Mr. Phil Taylor, who slings his jaw in the interests of Tanner, Currier A Heath, and Mr. Dan Hesy, Magnus A Hightower’s knight of the grip, will be found below. They left Atlanta on Monday, spending the night at Grantville, and early the next morning they proceeded toward Alabama by buggy, taking in Franklin, Texas, State Liuo and Houston, Phil handling the lines, and in the absence of a customer spending his time in talking to his teain. Everything went along smoothly until Tues day afternoon, when they were caught, amidst the terrors of a thunder storm in the mountains, just as night was coming on. The raiu came down in torrents, drenching the two drummers to the skin. The only means of telling where they were was by the constant flashes of light ning illuminating the road. Several times the friendly light revealed the wheels of the buggy alarmingly near the edge of some mountain ra vine. Alter nn hour thus unpleasantly spent they proceeded to dry their garments as best they could. Dan concluded to return to Atlanta morning as Phil had changed Ins route : and, at half-past six with his grip-sack clutched in a vice-like clasp, he commenced the bold undertaking of walking from Luthersville to Grantville, a dis tance of fifteen miles, in order to catch the train due at the latter place at 12 o’clock. The weather was hot, the sun being out, aud he ac tually wilted a cellaloid standing collar in his manly efforts to come in on time. He got there, too, reaching Grantville before 11, hot, tired, foot-sore and sun burned. Al soon as he rests and limbers up a little, Dan is thinking of chal lenging Prater or some other celebrated walker o a test of speed. Phil is still enjoying the fried chicken and frosh eggs of the hospitable mountain country. Fair Play. Editors Capitol: Wednesday two boys who attend the sixth grade, were playing in the yard at Calhoun street school, and in their boyish ways, were talking "that their teacher ought to have a brass button for keeping the boys in at recess.” After the boys came in the teacher called them up and beat them soundly on their legs, cutting at every lick. Now the question is bow far does the authori tv and jurisdiction of teachers extend, If they start to whip out every child that talks of them out of school, ihey will get their hands full. They will then earn certainly two brass but tons. JI'STtCK. Cash -aid for second-hand furniture, carpets feathers, stoves, etc. L. M. Ives, 10 S. Broad street. Hall of a Faatiiy Drowned. At Franklin, Ga., a colored man lives, who has gloried inthe posseeeion of a family of seven boys, the youngest one being old enough to chop cotton. Early this week, four of them proceed ed to take a bath in a wash hole, left near the river after a late rise. 'I'M voungest one being more cautious” than his brothers, waded into the place until the water reached his neck, when he stop ped to see the entrance of the other three. They took a running start, one taster the other, and jumped into the middle of the hole, which, un-* known to them, was fifteen feet deep. Down they went and came up splattering and calling for help. The little one hurried to dry laud and summoned aid, but before help arrived, all three of the boys were drowned. Making Improvements. Mr. J. C.
