MILLEDGEVILLE. Millkdgkville, GA., May 4.—Spe cial to Augusta (Chronicle.—Milledge- ville is not making much noise now, 1 >ut there is a strong undercurrent mov ing—slowly it may be—but with the power of deep watefr, which shows “Tliore's life in tlse old land yet." Here enterprising and sagacious citizens are wide-awake, and are deep ly in earnest studying the problem of her improvement, and there has not been a time in the last decade when she has been as ready for a forward movement as now. Her trade has enlarged, her educa tional facilities tire unsurpassed, her population has increased. There is not now a single store room for rent and but few dwellings, and ber enterprising building con tractors (and she has some who would do credit to any city) have been steadily employed for months and have engagements for several months ahead for new buildings. Arrangements are being made by some of our citizens, noted for their pluck, ability and determination, to inaugurate a new enterprise here which will prove a public blessing and the men who shall put it into success ful operation will long be remembered a.?-, public benefactors. You need not be surprised to hear eery soon that Milledgeville will have water works. It is altogether possible, as by av: mil survey it has been proven that from uiturni springs without the use of power, water can be delivered at an elevation of sixty feet above the main bed of the city, simply by the laying of about three and a-half miles ->f piping.

This man is Mr. Monnacers, »«. nn«mi a ° who came to our city a couple of Tiie conversational powers of the Detroit Free Press man pass as “Cur rency” everywhere. He is particular ly happy in his talks with the small boy, and his little stories run about thusly: He sat on the curbing of Woodward avenue, apparently dejected and low spirited. “Little boy,” said a philan thropic lady, “ain't you cold, sitting <>uthero barefoot, this weather.’’ es'm.” ■■Wouldn’ you like 25 cents to buy a M-Tund-lmnd pair of shoes?” “Make it fifty for a new pair, and I'll size ye up, old gal.” >ld gal! Is that the way you was brought up? Such manners in a child? Poor little fellow, 1 hate to see him sillier, if lie isn't respectful,” and the kind old lady dropped a bright silver half-dollar in his begrimed and benumbed lingers. ; “It's a good one,” said he, as he rung if on the pavement, “Thank ye mum," and he set 'em up all around that night., and had a short plug of black navy and half a bunch of cigar ettes left over with which to begin the next day's sitting. Another Vanderbilt (lift. years ago, and his invention, that he thinks is now perfected, is a machine for the manufacture of artificial ice at a cost of a few moments’ labor each day. Mr. Connacers is now putting up one of his machines in the Com mercial hotel, that was built by the Athens foundry and Maddry & Jones, and it will soon be given a practical test. Mr. Connacers is rather reticent about discussing his invention, but we learn the following facts as to what he claims for it: These ice makers will be of different sizes, the cheapest costing $ 125, with a capacity of 500 pounds of ice per day or 40 pounds is turned out every 20 min utes. It is only necessary to charge the machine once, which costs but little, and at any time when you want jee have onlv to luake some one turn a crank for 20 minutes, when a 40 pound block is formed. If a success, the value of this invention is inesti mable, for there is not a hotel in the country but will have one, while they will come into general use by private families. The machine is very simple ami any one can charge and operate it. -Athens Banner-Watchman. . In connection with this reported invention we may add that a dispatch from Pittsburg, Pa., of late, says that an invention has been perfected by which the very best gas can be made at a cost of 3 cents per 1,000 feet. The world moves.

Youth has courage, hope, faith to do and brave all things: middle age sees the earn estness of life, and buckles on the ar mor of work, for hearing the “still sad music of humanity, he knows itis the call for liis broad sympathy and un ceasing purpose, that he may make something grand, beautiful, and sweet out of the days that are given him.

A well-rounded, ful ly provided, efficiently conducted school of medicine is a substantial monument to the enlightment of the community which creates and sus- tains it. It is one of the things which adds dignity to a city and commands respect for the high order of work and the good it does. The Vander bilt family have in this ease placed in ail the sum of a million dollars in the hands of an organization of establish ed reputation in full operation and knowing its wants, so that none of the money will be wasted. A more effective gift could scarcely have been made. There is a path here practi cally suggested for wealthy and public- spirited citizens to follow and gradu- ally bring other New York institu tions of substantial character simi larly into line with the requirements and expectations naturally formed of n great city.—New York World. * It is a very poor man that permits personal pique to influence his official conduct. it would be a piece of great folly to retire Mr. Hammond from Congress.
