Every precinct was carried but one. This victory bnt confirms our idea that the best way to fight liquor Is with local option, Let each county vote on Its responsibility. Prohibition bss been beaten In but two coun ties In tbls stale???Washington and Decatur??? in over 120 fair and square contests. During tbo coming week Cobb county will vote on county prohibition. The liquor men nre more nctlve tbsn the prohibitionists, and may carry the county. Liquor is already rnled out of the county precincts, and is sold only In Uarletta. Lathy??? Contrary to expectation Cobb connty gives an overwhelming ??? majority against whisky. This is n most remarkable victory, and shows that the peoplo of Georgia ore equnrely against liquor, and that looal option is tbo best way to make this sentiment understood. A CLEAR VOTE IN NEW YORK. The temperance people have been defeated in the New York leglalature by two votea. The proposition was to submit the qnrstlon of pro hlblllon to tho, people. The vote stood C3 to 61. The republican parly after pledging itself to the policy, went back on their pledgee and defeated it. A new bill bas been Introduced on the high license plan. The fees are put at $780 in towns of more than 10.000 inhabitants, and fSOO in smaller towns. In the meantime the rural constituencies are organizing and will elect temperance candidates to the next legislature. The prohibition feeling Is very strong in New York. The prohibition bill has pssied the Iowa legislators. It was signed by tbs governor immediately after its passage, and therefore Iowa can orink no more.

Tbe husbands the sods! They away tbe tear of sadness, and appear as cheerful as passible, and try to conceal tbe faults that would dis grace me family, and yet they can't do it. Many persona know tha real atate of things. Now in view of these facia la it not strange that men will make, tell and drink whisky and claim It as a God given right. A right ta do what???to make drunkards, and change tha family that should be akin to heaven, Into what is next to bell on earth? For the picture changes from one to tbe other, aa these great principles, truth, honesty and virtue, and whisky will doit sooner or later.

Air Advemcrs turn a Shaks.???Recently in company witliliia fnther-in-luw, Mr. James Crumbangn iiml a neighbor, Mr. George Stlckney, all living near Springfield, O., M. Harlem went on a nutting and bunting ex position to Clifton, s romantic and rocky apotnearthebeadwniim of the Miami. At one point tbe rocks rise to a height of a hun dred feet or more along tbe stream and con tain many fissures and small caves. As the hunting jiarty were winding around these rocks by.a.narrow path, one of them slipped and in falling, his feet scraped the the rock below the path until ha finally got a foothold on a ledge a few feet below. He immediately recovered himself, and on look ing at tb* place where he bed did down the rock, he wusarpriaed to aeo that his leet in slipping had laid bare a hole in the side of ??? e rock' the rock by brtuhlngulde some undergrowth which had concealed it. He immediately called the others, and soon all were standing on the narrow ledge below the path, looking at the ojwningin tbe rock*. After tbe re maining nnderbruah had been removed (he opening wu tennd to be abont three or four Ifact in size. A damp wind was blowing from the month of tbs opening with consid- aiderable draught. Tbs parly mafic a cursory examination, one by one,with a bit of lighted candle, which showed nothing bat a narrow pasuge abont twenty feet in length , turning abruptly lo tbe right. The floor was strewn with the bones of birds and small animals. Relieving that it was only ono of the many caves with which tbe region abounds, the party, with the exception of Mr. Harlem, who wu much Interested in the cave, aban doned the exploration. They cautioned him to be on hla guard against concealed clefts, and told him to firs his gnn If he heeded help. Harlem, after lighting a candle and Btliug hla shotgun ready for action, entered o opening on hands and knees. The bot tom ot the pasuge was dry but the air blow ing through It was damp and sickening, cans ling the candle to burn dim and bine. Grop ing caulioualy for about twenty fees, tbo ad venturer came to tha turn which led into a larger chamber of the cava. Just as he turned the corner he stumbled and in steadying him self put his hand on tho floor of tbe cave, where he wu shocked to feel something round and smooth. Starting back with terror, he raised the candle high above hla head and looked down. There lay the colls of a huge serpent, in hla terror Mr. Harlem let fall the candle and remained motlokless with fear on his knees. As lack would have it, the can dle did notgo out, but remained sticking in the aand on tbe floor of the cave and throw ing a dim light over the scene. Like a flash the hideotu head of the soroent darted up from the floor and tha coils began to move. Mr. Harlem raid he conld have fled had not something seemed to chain him to the zpot. It seemed as if enormous weights wero hung on every member of hla body, absolutely pro liiblting flight. The serpent???s eyes appeared to give forth a blue phosphorescent light ns they flashed In the gloom. Slowly the crea ture began to move Its head in circles, ns if to produce tbe ume effect as the inemerlsi, Iwbo puts his subject to aleep by dumb wilhl hie bands. Gradually tbe colls drew nearer to thatr victim. Mr. Harlem says he Knew all tho time tbat the bead was approaching by degrees, and tbatjthe circles were gradu ally narrowing. He knew that be was ex periencing what la called the fascination of serpents, but found It impossible to break the spell. Hla nerves aeemed completely powerless, and hie pulse seemed to atop, and his skin wu moist with cold perspiration Nevertheless, hla mind wu reasonably clear, cud tbe events of his life ran In quick sue cession bofore hla mental vision. With an ptlsli he thought of the home w hlch he had eft but a few hours before. The feeling of helplessness aeemed to lncreue. Suddenly ho thought of his gun. He dared not re- movo his eyea from tbe anako long enough to look for the gun , which he had dropped on the floor in Ills excitemant, because he * ??? tbat the moment he turnei Array from creature it would be upon him. Ha groped on the floor with hfa right hand, and at last found tlie gun and raised it to his side. The snake wu too near for him to raise the gun Ito his shoulder, and he simply held it at his side and reached back until he fait tho trig ger. At the deafening report he fell back unconscious, and know no mom till he found hie friends bribing hfa face In vinegar and and water. It seems that hla companions, and no man In hla senses would tiro at hint after dark when he could not be absolutely certain of his aim. Last year three men, one an old pioneer - a! ??? file* mAMui.l., MTw. were prospecting pear Elk* mountain, Wy oming. WPile in camp one bright moonlight night a large grizzly came near. They fired on him and the bear charged. Two of the men "treed??? and the third ran into the tent, where the bear followed and killed him, and then retired to a jucglo near by. Tbo next morning the survivors followed into the jun gle and found the bear; the Dear charged and wiped out the pioneer. Tbe sole survivor then made tracks for the nearest ranch and help The story was tbat these men had each been killed by a terrible bite on tbe left side of tbe body. Female grizzlies are uauslly lighter Id color than the male, and the average western hunter, at their tails, call them "cinnamon.??? Toe true cinnamon is a variety of the blacs bear,although they grow sometimes to quttea large s : ze. Those I have Jumed have run, al though one showed fight when it was too late. We came on him while still hunting in the snow, and wounded him so he could not travel fast. When we caught up he turned on us, but as he did so I gave him the shot I wanted in the chest and it was all over with him. The ordinary black bear will run like a deer when jumped; but for all tbat he is not the harmless innocent he is some times represented to be, tbat any man can conquer with a walkiug slick.

Tbelr first thought was that he bad ahothlmaelf bat a law drops of water revived him. Mr. Harlem was removed (o a neighboring farm house, where he soon re covered sufficiently to be taken home. He is only just recovering Irom his nervous pros tration. From the neighbors It wu learned that a traveling show which bad had an ex hibition near there some time ago bad lest a boacooitrlctor, and It ti believed that this la the enake In tho cave. It wu.

A Ciiaii by A Grizzly.??????I bad been bear bunting one morning for several hours with the usual lack of succeaa, although we bad threaded the most likely thickets. A heavy storm of rain and aleetcomlogon discouraged us so that wo returned to our ponies and turned back for our osmn, Taking a abort cut, wa rode Into and endeavored to cross a very dense balsam swamp, through which ran a little brook. Cold and weary, soaked with tha heavy rain, we amuhed our way noisily through, hers Jumping fallen trees end mud holes, there dismounting to let the horses get through a bad spot alone. In the very midst of the ewamp we rode literally right on to a grizzly, the great beast rushing up from Its neat directly under the nose of noise ol onr hasty and careless approach yet making no algn and awaiting us with ???upreiue indifference, bnt when he jumped moet fortunately for uo, he ran. We would have stood no dunce mounted on our bones,ana hemmed In by the tangled swamp. We epring from our ponies and run after the bear, firing as we run. Then follows a mzd chase through tha muddy recesses of the ???wimp and ont into the more open forest. ~ ally I got a good chance and give biin a Fin couple of txploaiva shells from my no 12, near tha tail, railing him for and aft. He does not ran to fast now, and I catch up and give him a right and left in tha .boulder as he rears to jump some fallen timber, and thus finish him. He settles down In a life-like at titude on the logs and wa come and admire; bnt we do not go up pnd kick him???oh. ho. Wa dlveat him bf bis overcoat and hold our usual autopsy and track ont tbe shots. Then we go back to onr horses and find tha carcass ol an elk near where wa had jumped him. This accounted for his lack of pugnac ity, having made a heavy thanksgiving kind ofa ??? dinner and only wanted to be let alone. The next afternoon 1 returns,! there with a guide. During the night grizzlies bad cov ered the elk carcass with dirt and trash; one Up of a horn alone protruded above the tem porary grave to abow tbat a great elk lay be neath. Going down to leeward some forty or fifty yards we hid onnelves carefully, and witched patiently but fruitlessly until after dark. Tbe nextmorning we returned again. The elk had been dug up and nearly all de voured; it was In a high state of decomposi tion, and had evidently disagreed with some of tha bean. We atlll hunted the awamn carefully aud found nothing,althocg the mud was still settling In the bear wallows. Watch ing a carcass by daylight Is of bat little use. I have done It repeatedly until lt>aa too dark to see the eights of my rifle, bnt never getUng shot thus; and moet hunters here the same experience.

In the auiumer ot 1820, there lived In the tall threa-atory brick building, corner of Old alreet aud He. Paul???s alley, n Miss Pennington. To Miss Pennington all accounts agree in attributing a remarkable aliara ot beanty.

Adams qu ickly brought his ptalol in a line with Bolsseau???s band, which, allow ing conspicuously on the duk cloth of hta coat, served to attract Ills aim, and lent hta hall through the band Into his rival's body, Boisseau bad not gotten hls weapon Into po sition when hls antagonlst'a bullet tore through hta heart, but the convulsive move ment of tbe muscles, anfferiog the agony of the death-stroke, censed him to tighten the grup on the stock of hls pistol, the hammer (ell ami tlie upward tcndrncyof the discharge sufficiently elevated the barrol of tho pistol to Bend tbe ball Into Adams, who fell mor tally wounded. The rumor tbat a duel wu going to be fought near tbe church caused many cnrlout, amiperhaps anxious parlies to be in tbe Im mediate neighborhood. The acene presented to tbe eyes of those first reaching tho battlo ground needs no extra ooloring to height??? Us gbutlineu. Tbe seconds, seeing that their principals were beyond all euthly aid, and not wishing to i>e discovered byttMoflamof the Inw standing over tbe dead bodies, had liutlly letL tha ground and Ued In tbe direc tion of North Carolina. Botaaaeu lay motion less where he had fallen???dead. Adams hsd dragged himself a few yards away and lay writhing on tbo ground. Add the blood and tha pistols and the picture ta complete. Adams lingered through the night. Tha friends of both tbe men were Indig nant tbat they should have been permitted by their seconds to fight under circumstances which made the death of one or both certain. Every particle of that chance, which ahonld distinguish a duel from a street b awl, bail, they claimed, been eliminated by tha peculiar ???'*' * "??? - en loiight Mr. condition! under which tbe men fougl Strong was probably tbe only man in tbs commnnlty who heard of the result with SDy degree of complacence. ^???administrator of C.
