As a re sult of these unfavorable reports --file price of the staple has advanc ed materially, and t here is not now so much reason to fear “five cent cotton.” A white tramp outraged a wo man and then murdered her in Franklin paiish. La., last Wednes day. Bloodhounds were put on his trail and he was soon over hauled and caught. He confessed to the crime, when the mob tied him to a tree, shot him to death and then burned the body. In crime- of this sort the color of the criminal don’t cut much figure. l'he News is indebted to Senator John B. Gordon for a copy of the M-unor.al addresses on the life and charactej of Senator Alfred 11, Colquitt, whose death occurred tn March 1891. In the volume are many warm expressions of con fidence and esteem from his col- i leagm s in tho senate, and forms a tilting m morial t > the close of a i life that was worthy of all emula tion. Columbus Ledger: "If you ex pect to vote you must comply with the registration laws. Go do so at once. Georgia expects every man to do io- duly in the coming elec tion. It is every man’s duty who is privi ged to vote t study the is su< s ai d cast his ballot iu the in terest of what he thinks will be beneficial to his country. Register then that von mav be prepared to do this. « Maddox’s Campaign. Congressman J. W. Maddox, who < is the nominee of the Seventh Dis trict Democracy to succeed him self in congress, opened his cam paign at Dallas last Monday, and from this time on will wage a vig orous fight. As is quite well known, Col. M . R. Rankin, of Calhoun, is the in dependent candidate, while J. A . Massey, of La Fayette, will be in the field as the Republican candi date, and J. W. McGarrity, of Paulding, will uphold the Populist cause. This will make a four cor nered light, and it docs not need a political prophet to predict tho result. Unless all signs fail J. W. Mad dox will bo re-elected to congress by a larger majority than ever be fore; but the judge is taking noth ing for granted, and has gone to work in earnest. Hon. A. S. Clay, Chairman of the State Democratic Committee, is urging the people to register. According to the registration law, . he says: First.—Only voters who have , registered this year (1896) can vote in the elections to be held this fall; consequently, any per son who may fail to register this year, under the law, will be depri ved of his vote. Second. —In order to register, I the voter must apply to tho tax , collector and register in person, either by writing his name or mak ing his mark. He is required, un der tho law, to sign tho oath, and one person cannot register the | name of another. The impression has gone out that tho tax collector can get tho names of voters and sign tho oath for them. This is a mistake, and all such registration is illegal. The voter must apply to the tax collector, or his clerk, and sign the oath himself, or make 1 his mark. Third.—ln order to facilitate I tho work, the tax collector is al lowed to appoint a clerk, or clerks, to assist him in carrying on the registering of the voters. The acts of such clerks, done in pursu ance of the registration law, will bo just as legal and valid as if done by the tax collector himself. 'l'he August McClure’s justifies its title of a “Midsummer Fiction Number” in five short stories, all of them of such fresh and ready interest that ono can read them without forcing himself and in spite of heat and humidity. Oc tave Thanet contributes a strong story of Western life; Stephen Crance relates a dramatic episode in the later life of the hero of “Tho Red Badge of Courage;” Clinton Ross tells a booming battle story, based on Perry’s historic victory on Lake Erie; E. M. Thompson tells a humorous tale of the Cana dian fishermen; and Annie E iot describe a double love episode in a Yale and Harvard boat race. It is not often that five really good stories, as these certainly are, get into a single magazine. Then, in addition, there is in this number a fairly “stunning" instalment of Anthony Hope’s new romance, ( “Phroso.” I A young doctor in north Georgia | recently sent the following letter, to a well known physician of that I section: “Dear Doc—l have a pashunt whos phisical sines shows that the windpipe hav ulserrated ’ oil' and his lung hav dropt inter his stummiek. He is onable to swaller an I fear his stummiek is gone. I give him everything w ith out affect. His father is wealthy, honorable and inlluenshial. He’s an aetiv member of the church and God nose I don't want to lose him. What shall I due? Ans wer by return mail. Yours in need.” j What do you think about this chert the city is having put on the streets? Will it prove a success or will the money be thrown away? A prominent member of the coun cil told me this morning that he did not think it the stuff, and con sidered it a waste of money.—Rome Commercial. This same chert, except not quite so good a quality, has been in use on the streets of Summerville for the past four years, and we have never heard of but one objection to it. and that is the reflection of the sun from it on hot days makes it disagreeable and unpleasant to the eyes. With this exception Ro mans will be delighted with it when they givejit a fair trial. MR. JONES’ INTERVIEW. Senator Butler Says McKinley’s Election Would Mean a Calamity. Atlanta, Aug. s.—Senator But ler, chairman of the populist na tional committee, telegraphed the Atlanta Journal this morning the following signed statement in re gard to Senator Jones’ interview criticising the southern populists: “You wire me purported inter view with Chairman Jones, as it appears in Monday’s World, and ask me for a statement with refer ence to tho same. lam not pre pared to believe Senator Jones was quoted correctly. The election of McKinley would mean not only four years more of Shermanism and Clevelandism, but also many additional andcumunlativeresult ing evils. “No intelligent patriotic voter, no true American citizen can, by his action or inaction, be respon blo, directly or indirectly, for such a threatened calamity. The only possible way that it can be averted ' is by a complete, harmonious and ■ enthusiastic union of all parties 'opposed to the destructive rule of : corporate greed and British gold I upon tho candidates for President and Vice-President that represent ' just the opposite to what McKin ley and Hobart represent. Those upon whom is the groat responsibility of the consumma ! tion of this end, should not say or I do anything that would produce ; friction, but should on the other ' hand subordinate all minor differ j ences and bend every energy for I harmonious union and victory i when the cause of outraged and ' suffering humanity is trembling in the balance, when victory for : American independence and pros ' perity is in sight. “What a humiliating and sick | ening spectacle it would bo should i tho folly of personal ambition and the demon of party spirit step into | cons use and divide tho allied ma jority and deliver our people into the hands of the enemies of repub lican institutions. But this can not, this will not happen. “The American people are not in any humor to bo trilled with. They realize the cause of our evils; they fully appreciate the threaten ed danger. They will this year drive tho British money changers and their American tory allies from the temple of liberty and take charge of their own affairs. “It would be better for candi dates and chairmen to do less talk ing for the present. But in spite of the indiscretions of individuals and recalled leaders, the American people have determined to win this fight and they will do it.” MARION BUTLER. Obituary. Nirs. Alary J. Tucker was born in Lincoln county, N. C., in 1823. She died in Chattooga Georgia, at the home of her daugh ter, Mrs. Hawkins, June 12, 1895. She was married to Win. H. Tuck er, of this county, in 1845. For fifty-one years they lived happily together. They reared a family of six children—all of them now liv ing. When about eighteen years of age she joined the Methodist church and lived a consistent member of it to the day of her death. She was a kind neighbor, a good wife, a devoted mother. About three years ago, while on a visit to Texas, she was stricken with paralysis. From that time she gradually declined in health . until death released her from her suffering. When the end drew nigh she had no fear of death, but for several days before she passed ■ away she was often saying, “What, a grand and glorious thing it is to I be prepared for death.” She left a parting message for each of ‘her absent children, clcsing each one with the sweet request, “Meet me in Heaven," and then entered into “the rest which remaineth to the I people of God.” J . C. R. Vacation Time Is at hand and is gladly welcomed by all, especially those whose du ties in life have caused them to greatly run down their system to meet the requirements, physical and mental forced upon them. With these and others, it is impor tant, whether at home, at the sea shore or in the country that some thought be given to diet and as further assistance to Nature, a good building-up medicine like Hood's Sarsaparilla had best be resorted to. If the digestion is poor, liver deranged and frequent headaches seem to be the general rule. Hood’s will change all this and enable everyone to return to their home and business in a re freshed state of mind and bodily health. TEE G. N.& I. COLLEGE. Some Interesting Facts Concern ing This Model School For Georgia Girls. At Milledgeville, Baldwin coun ty, is located one of the best prac tical educational institutions in the south, or even in the whole country—the Georgia Normal and Industrial College for girls. Fol lowing are a few brief but interest ing facts concerning th© history and purposes of this model institu tion. The original bill for the estab lishment of this college was intro duced in the House of Representa tives of the Georgia Legislature, in 1889, by Hon. W. Y. Atkinson, then a member from Coweta county. The measure met with great favor and passed both houses by a large majority and receiving the Gover nor's signature, became a law . Af ter the college was opened it stead ily grew in popularity, its success surpassing the expectations of its most sanguine friends. There is a bit of unwritten his tory about the college that is very interesting. It is generally known that the idea of establishing this college first originated with Mrs. W. Y. Atkinson. A few weeks af ter their marriage Mr. and Mrs. Atkinson wore driving about the country near their homo one day when they saw two girls working in a field. As they approached the young women drew their bon nets down, but not before Mrs. At kinson caught a glimpse of their faces and saw that they were both intelligent looking and handsome. A vision of their limited opportu nities and narrow lives rose up be fore her and she thought of what such girls might be, and do, if fit ted for broader and more congen ial work, and with this thought came the idea of a school for Geor gia girls. From this tiny seed grow tho Girls’ Normal and Indus trial college. It has been careful ly tended and watched over, since its germination, by some of the broadest minded and biggest heart ed people in Georgia until it has grown to its present proportions. In no other school in America can a girl got such splendid advantages at so small a cost. The object of tho state in estab lishing this school is to provide for the young women of Georgia the special instruction and training that will prepare them to earn their own living by the vocation of teaching, or by those industrial arts and fine arts suitable for wo men to pursue. Besides these two main objects the student is taught those branches of learning that constitute a general good educa tion. Thus any young women is thoroughly equipped so far as edu cational advantages go, to face life in any situation. Some young women may bo fool ish enough to object to tho school on tho score of its being for poor girls. It is truly not a train ing school for what is known as society, but its students receive a systematic education in the higher branches of learning which pre pares them to sustain themselves in any circle of cultured society in which they may have a place. But the institution is thoroughly practical in its methods and aims because to the girls it is intended , to benefit most life is a thoroughly ' practical affair, , Ail Georgia girls are admitted , free of tuition costs, the total ex pense being for books, board and I matriculation fee. Ono hundred and ten dollars ($110.00) is a lib ’ eral estimate for all expenses, in cluding every sort of incidental. The school ] ast session had an at tendance of 384, coming from 89 different counties in Georgia. Many girls were turned away from the school on account of the limited capacity of the dormitory. ■ But the college is now prepared to furnish ample accommodations to all Georgia girls who may wish to come, as a magnificent new dormi tory has just been completed and furnished throughout in the best style at a cost of about $35,000. The plan formerly pursued of re quiring applicants for admittance to pass the entrance examination under the County School Commis sioner at home has been abolished, and hereafter all students will be examined by the faculty after they arrive in Milledgeville. This school should receive the patronage of Georgians on its mer its as a school, and because it is . one of the noblest institutions on southern soil. A handsome new illustrated cat alogue of the schoel is just out and may be obtained by those wishing; further information concerning the school upon application to the president, Prof. J. Harris Chap pell, Milledgeville, Ga. E. C. The appointment of Judge Joel Branham to succeed Hon. J. J. Black as a member of the state Democratic executive committee meets with general approval. He is a staunch Democrat, a man of wide influence and is a prominent candidate for a seat on the supreme court bench if an increase in the number of justices is provided for. Fifty years of uninterrupted publication, and a wide circulation among the American people, have rendered the Scientific American, | New York, a household term. Tho editors have issued a handsome anniversary number, which reviews tho progress of the arts and sciences during the past half century, and is enriched with copious illustra tions, showing the development of the steamship, the railroad, the telegraph and the telephone, print ring, the bicycle and the reaper; and it includes portraits and sketches of celebrated inventors and men of science, and the full text of tho prize essay on the pro gress of invention.

His mind then wandered far away to the time when he should die, and his loyal editorial soul goes scoot ing to the sky; when he’d roam tho fields of paradise and sail over jasper seas, and all things glorious would combine, bis every sense to’ please. He thought how, when he'd look across the great gulf dark and drear, that yawned be tween his happy soul and those who swindled here; and then for water they should call and in agony they’d caper, he’d shout to them: “Just moisten your tongue with the ‘due that’s on your paper.’ ” Deafness Cannot Be Cured by local applications as they can not reach the diseased portion of he ear. There is only one way to cure deafness and that is by con stitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eusta- I chian Tube. When this tube gets I inflamed you have a rumbling i sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed deafness is the result and unless theinflam j mation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condi- I tion, hearing will be destroyed for ever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is noth ing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces.

Viewing the money question as the greatest issue of the day and favoring tho fiee and unlimited coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1 and following the teachings of Jefferson and Jackson that National Banks and Banks of issue are dangerous to the welfare and liberties of the people and ought to be suppressed. Hence if elected I will do all in my yower to elect a man to the United State Senate who favors the same. Education is tho hope of tho state, therefore I am in favor of a liberal support of the public schools. I oppose the present convict sys tem as it is inhumane and in com- ■ petition with free labor.
