Twilis^ t Mueinss
Don't light the lamps too early, let
the twilight steal into the house and
gentle thoughts into your heart. A
day well spent prepares the mind to
enjoy the soothing influences of the
hour, and the glory-tints of parting
day will woo the soul into harmony
with God. But, if in the pursuit of
pleasure or in the struggle for bread,
or more money, or fdme, you have
soiled your soul, can you |do better
than repent and trust in God?
A man should leave his cares at his
place of business and not carry them
home at nightfall. But if, perchance,
some harrassing thought should cling
to and fret him, the family should be
kind, considerate and patient, and he
will become serene under these gentle
influences and renew his strength
for the morrow's battle of life.
You cannot expect everybody to
think and act according to your plan.
Dead the way and if it is seen to be
■desirable vou will have followers. It
is hard to drive even a cow into a new
pen. but if she is tolled in her calf will
follow.
Boys spend your evenings at home.
Don't say : you “can go Loins ! when
vou have nowhere else to go.' .Your
h ood. patient mother will soon be gone
and then you will feel that the old
home was the dearest spot on earth.
Hat red is a wild beast that drives
happiness out of the heart and leaves
it desolate. The late Dr. Evans was
a man whose heart was full of love
and he enjoyed perfect peace.
Do not grow weary in well-doing;
patient perseverance will bring its
reward. Only those who hold out
faithful to the end shall receive a
crown of glory.
Till a thing is done, men wonder
that you think it can be done, and
when you have done it, wonder it was
never done before.—C. H. Spurgeon.
Better wear out than rust out. Af
ter all. constant employment is man’s
best safeguard. A busy man has no
time to entertain the devil.
We knew a man who prayed for
his political enemies, because, he said,
lie could not hate the man lie prayed
for.

tiny, leave! ‘foot-prints in the sand of

►Saber. After supper, while the can

. -approached.
“Come here, my son. Sit on my
knee. Now you are fixed. l)o you go
to school?”
“No. but me and Dick killed a water
moccasin yistidy."
“You did?”
“Ah, hah."
“Were you not afraid he would bite
you?”
“Ho, he couldn't bite me. I could
git outen his way and hit him with a
rock." '
“My little man, after awhile you
can tell people that you sat on Capt.
Niggles worth’s knee.' 1
“Ho, that ain't nothing to tell, I sot
-on my pap's knee yistidy an' he’s big-

“Yes it would be something to tell,
for I am going to the legislature.’ 1
“Pap says you ain’t.”
“What?” putting the boy down.
“Yes. when lie seed you cornin’ he
said: ‘Yonder comes that blamed
fool. He thinks he's going to the leg-

The executive committee of the
Seventh Georgia Regiment survivors
met last weekend determined to hold
a reunion of the regiment on July 21.
They will picnic in Atlanta or near
Grant’s park. Gen. Gartrell, Maj.
Joseph Ganahl, P. Francisco Smith
and other members of the regiment
will address their old comrades.

A large number of the leading citi
zens in the northeast and other sec
tions of Georgia have been approach
ed with a petition to Gov. McDaniel
asking the pardon of George T.
Jackson, of Augusta, and many names
were secured in Athens. A gentle-
man who is intimate with the Gover-
•ner says that in less than three
months Mr.‘Jackson will be a free
<nan.
ONE NIGHT ONLY.
The Opera House, the citizens of
Augusta, Ga., the Mayor, the mem
bers of Council, the Judge, the Solic
itor General, the ubiquitous small boy
with his infernal whistle anti the city
Assessor. •
Standing room only for the house is
full, brim full and fluttering with fans
and feathers and splendid with lights
and flowers and glorious with fashion
and candidates for the Legislature.
What’s the matter? Dull old Augusta
is doing the grand to-night; everybody
dressed up and every face wreathed
with its sweetest smile. What is the
matter?
A little bell rings and everybody
starts and is still, even the small boy’s
whistle is hushed as slowly the great
curtain rolls up. “Oh how nice they
all look!” the sweet girl graduates of
the Tubman High School, greeted
with the dust of tremendous applause.
That is what’s the matter, the city
in love. What Lucy Cobb is to Ath
ens, what Shorter is to Rome, the Tub-
man is to Augusta; a sweetheart. She
is quite a small sweetheart, but there
is poetry enough in her bright eyes to
mash the whole State if they could
but know what a sweet little creature
she can be when she wants to be; for
with her fine eyes and cute little ways
she is a cunning little girl to-night.
Did you ever go to the Theatre ex
pecting nothing and get disap
pointed, so very disappointed that
when the curtain falls you feel right
sad.and don't know why? It’s because
you can never see tlie play again
without having seen it before.
The parts taken by the 2nd and
third classes, afforded a charming
feature of the entertainment, their
marching and forming of pretty fig
ures on the stage was capital.
Did you ever see an umbrella drill?
If not, the next announcement you
see which even hints at the possibility
of such being part of an entertain
ment, you go, and if you don't like it,
the girls are not pretty. If you had
seen the drill of the young ladies of
the Tubman High school whh their
bright umbrellas and pretty fans vou
would have been .perfectly delighted,
I know.
The graduates for ’SO are, Miss W.
A. Crabbe, Miss Carrie Gow, Miss
Mamie Rogers, Miss Minnie Miller,
Miss Maggie Miller. Miss E. "Wallace,
Miss M. M. Berry, Miss A. Sumeran,
Miss A. B. Sancken, Miss M. L. Sib
ley, Miss J. P. Lester, Miss A.V. Rich
ards, Miss M. L. Land, Miss Floride
Skinner, Miss M. A. McKnight, Miss
Fleming, Miss Lucy Wiison, Miss Lou
ise Cole.
The Diplomas were delivered to the
the class by Hon. J. S. Davidson in
one of his happiest efforts and the
Hon. Jos. Ganahl the medals and the
school’s present to the Principal,
Mr. John Neely. Miss Gow divides
the first honor with Miss Sibley and
takes the Davidson medal, while Miss
Sibley is awarded the Neely medal.
It is unusual to see a whole class
so proficient in deep things, yet have
pretty cheeks and bright eyes and
lots of every day sense. Their com
positions showed thought and appli
cation while their songs and recita
tions evinced a knowledge of how to
fascinate the most exacting.
When Prof. Pelot says you can
write, you write well; when he says
well, it's useless to try .and improve, be
content. The graduates from the T.
H. 8. received from him at this com
mencement the encomium, beautiful—
so if any fellow in Milledgeville should
have occasion to write to any one of
this graduated class he had best hold
a steady hand and if he should hap
pen to spell who “hoo,” I just dare
him to come over here.
The songs of Miss Minnie Miller,
Miss Sumeran, Miss Bessie Miller and
Miss Rogers showed that the Tubman
has a teacher of music: really I don’t
know who is their music teacher,but I
do know that that teacher knows mu
sic. Oh, I like to have forgotten one of
the sweetest voices of the evening;Miss
Crabbe sang a dear little song that
was much applauded, “Is he here?”
Yes he was there and his name is le
gion. Of course I have skipped about
and left out much that possibly would
please the readers of the Union and
Recorder more than the features spec
ially mentioned, but space, the old
stereotyped apology, I have the cheek
to offer in defense.
Well the commencement exercises
are over and the curtain falls only for
a few minutes to rise again on the
prettiest picture I ever saw on any
stage, the graduates deployed among
the oaks, in a serai-circle, to sing a
farewell by the light of the moon. As
they stood waiting for the first note
from the accompaniment, there was
just a little touch of sadness in the
picture but it threw the word exquis
ite right in their midst as they stood
waiting. Exquisite! what? Picture?
Poem? And this picture, the last verse
—but ah! what a pity, this last verse
of this beautiful poem has this last
word, so out of place, “The flowers
that bloom in the spring tra la have
nothing to do with the case,”

BILE BEANS! What a funny name
for a medicine! Nevertheless it is very
significant as applied to the article.
Bile, according to Webster, is “a yel
lowish bitter, viscid nausceous fluid,
secreted by the liver.’’ Whenever the
hvei. does not act properly this fluid is
retained in the blood and-poisons the
whole system, and sallowness and misery
is the result. SMITH’S BILE BEANS
is a sure cure for biliousness and liver
complaint. Price, 25 cents per bottle
Liver Pills.
Use Dr. Gunn’s Liver Pills for Sal
low complexion, Pimples on the Face
and Biliousness. Never sickens or
gripes. Only one for a dose. Sam
