The yarn shirt is now gaining
the day with the city “fop,” and
he is ushering it into society, where
ever its intrusion will be permit
ted. This garment-fever is fast
gaining ground with those of the
“optimate” standing.
The yarn shirt sprung into ex
istence through the engineer, fire
man, brakesman, and other profes
sions of the lower grade, who wear
them through cheapness and lazi
ness io exchange garments.
It will be remembered last win
ter a congressman undertook to in
troduce Ibis ‘dusty” garment in the
chambers, but tho members of
more refined judgment, hissed and
jeered the “foppish” congressman
out of the attempt. He went to his
room Pnnoralized and doffed the
yarn shirt and donned the white
and boiled shirk” But as he went
back some of Hie members took up
the old Latin phrase:—O lempora!
O mores!
We don’t beg people to fake the
Journal. Its \bw subscription of
50 cents is not 1 cent, an issue, and
wFo can expect you to send a whole
year to any address, the Journal on
tho credit, list. The truth is, you
don't want a piper that you are not
willing to pay the low price of 50
cents *‘or iu advance. Therefore
the Journal will not intrude on
this kind of subscribers after next
week. It will overhaul its books
next week and visit those who
have shown they want the paper.
For the time they have taken the
Journal they will find their ac
counts with postmasters. During
the holidays w intend given the
county a thorough canvas. When
we first came here we violated the
rules of journalism in not doing it.
And it came about in this way;
“When we left Auburn, Ala,, ®ur
intentions were te sturt a paper at
\Vatkinsville, Oconee county, anil
that placo had been recommended
to us by Col Walker, Auburn, but
he hadn’t been in Watkinsvill* in
several years, and we didn’t ask for
letters of introduction to any one
in Watkinsville. Whan wo came
to Watkinsville we found lhe
Ocar.ee Enterprise had been run
ning there over a year. This, of
course, disarranged 6ur intentions.
But Col. Johnson, the editor, cited
Banks as the only county close to
a railroad, he knew that didn’t
have a paper. And this is the way
we cniie to come into Banks.”

Lyons, Fiance, Oct 21 —An iu'er
rating c;se, which will be a d'tficalt
matter for the courts, happened re
cently iu the Rod Cross Hospital of L r
ons. A patient was placed tindar the
influence of chloro orm, it*. order to bo
subjected to a most, painful operation.
At the first incision, however, the
man, who was usually etrong, became
couseioue. Crazy with pain, he tore
the unite from the hand of the oporat
ing surgeon, and despite the presence
of several friends be plunged it in an
instant into the hearts of Prof. Nagout
and a young man who was acting as
witness. The doube murderer was
taken into the tenure room and bound.
Recognizing the fact that a„ naicotia
could intiuence him, the operation was
performed without its use. He will
probably recover. The interest in his
trial, which will probably take place
til the near future, lies in the defense
that he commute! the double crime in
a fit ot tampoiary insanity, caused by
the extreme pain. The casa wilt form
an important chapter in the history of
medical law.
