Cheney occurred Thursday morn ing at 1 o’clock at Mrs. Harri son’s boarding house on Second avenue. Mr. Cheney had been in failing health for several months, I hut only recently he has been eon fined to his room, and for the past few days it was known that the end was near. He leaves a wife and one son, Mr. Holiness Cheney, his sister, Mrs. W. B. Shaw, and brother, Alvan Cheney ia.ll of this city, besides several sisters and brothers located at other points. Mr. Cheney was born at the old Cheney homestead just across the line in Chattooga county and was the son of Dr. Cheney, one the wealtliiest and most promi nene citizens of that county, lie graduated at the University of Georgia with high honors, and began his career as a minister of the Baptist church. He af terwards was admitted' to the bar and had began the practice of his profession in Rome in the early eighties, being first asso ciated with Col. Hamilton Yancy and afterwards a member of the firm of Underwood, Rowell and Cheney. Retiring from the prac tice of law Mr. Cheney devoted his time to literary pursuits, for a number of years, in which field his talents shone brilliantly and conspicuously. lie is the author of several works, chief among which is the Apocalypse olf Life and devoted a large portion of his time, to the study of psychology. Mr. Cheney was a forceful anal ytical writer, and hiss writings were marked by great research and profound depth of thought. His scholarly attainments, were of the highest order, and there was probably not a more pro found thinker ; n, Georgia than Walter T. Cheney at the time of his death. He has for many years been connected with the I’syehieh Puli fishing Company and was a reg’ ular contributor to various mag azines.— Tribun e-I lerald.

Much has been said of late to the discredit of Georgia by rea son of the number of illiterates who are still to be found in this state notwithstanding the im perative bugle call of the pres ent age for educational equip ment. And to be perfectly frank, the statistics are postively appall- In some respects, Georgia is one of the foremost states of the Union. She is rich in material resources. Her acres are fertile. Her mines are opulent. Her wa ter powers are ample; and, touchd by the magic wand of in dustrial enterprise, she is fairly bristling with manufacturing es tablish! nuts. Some of her prod ucts are world famous. Georgia marble has been used to con struct scores of magnificent build ings throughout the North and East, including many state capi tals . Georgia cotton helps to elm he the whole human race. Th Georgia Elberta, is the queen '■egent of peaches. The Georgia Rattlesnake has long held pre mier honors among watermellons. And the Georgia climate is a. so lar magnet which is yearly at tracting to this state myriads of imur grants. No commonwealth is more lav ishly endowed. But Georgia will utterably fail to realize her spledid possibili ties and she shall continue from year to year to discount lire un surpassed opportunities until the stain of illiteracy is wiped from her escutcheon. We are ashamed to confess how far down on the list Geor gia ranks. The idea has been* current throughout the country for some time that the explanation of this revolting status of affairs is to be found in the mistaken and narrow-minded economic policy of the state legislature. But this shot is wide of the mark. Professor Joseph S. Stewart, of the State University, reminds us that during the past five years $8,825,000 hmfl been raised by state tax and $2,500,000 by local tax for the maintenance of the common schools. More over, the schools have been open ed from five to nine months each year ami school facilities have been placed within a radius of three miles of every child of school age in Georgia. According to this disclosure, it is evident that the widespread ignorance of the very rudiments of an English education which exists to-day in the state is not due to the fact that the traesury is locked. Eleven million of dollars in five years is generous enough, it seems; but, in spite of this ample provision from the state treas ury, there are' 84,380 illiterate, children today in Georgia. What is the explanation 1 Briefly stated, it is this: Geor gia has up to this time either failed or refused to adopt such compulsory measures as will compel parents in this state to send childern to school. Os course, straitened! domestic (•ireumstanees often, make it nec essary for parents to put children to work on the farms and in the factories. But even when jus tified by the stearnest edicts of poverty it is an imposition upon tin- child, for in this age of the world an educational outfit for the young is of the utmost im portance. It can not be neglected without the most harmful conse quences. And when children are denied this sacred right and privilege by parents who are simply too tri fling to work, they are the vic tims of criminal injustice, and provision should be made for cor recting this evil by the most rig id penal enactments. No fault can be found with the appropriations which Georgia ha*‘ made to the common schools of the state. They have been lav ish; and in the schools which have been provided there are seats for thousands who have simply failed to attend. Proffessor Stewart makes the astonishing statement that there are hundreds of ignorant white boys in Georgia who are actually plowing furrows around the school house. But they never cross the; doorstep, they never see the. inside of a text book— they imbibe no inspiration from the fountain-spring of learning, within sight of which they suffer the keenest pangs of thirst. Is it not time for the state to adopt some discriminating meas ure of eumpulsion, when, despite the common wealth’s bounty in the matter of education, the total of illiteracy has decreased only 1.6 per cent? Why take from the pockets of the people the enormous sum of money which is needed for the education of the masses unless some measure is adopted for making the appropriation effect ive ? This question is not argued for the purpose of curtailing tine ap propriation, but for the purpose of arousing the conscience of the state to the necessity of compell ing parents to give to children the fundamental birthright op portunities of an education which are vouchsafed to them by the statutes of the commonwealth. Georgia, is doing an injury not only to her taxpayers, but to her youthful offspring in not provid ing some means for making her expenditures for the common schools effective. The only civilized countries on the globe which can furnish) her a precedent i.n this respect are Russia and Turkey. She can not afford to trail in the wake of these benighted lands. She cart not afford to point for her justi fication to the two great auto crats of Europe whose thrones are built upon popular ignorance the czar and the sultan. In the very nature of things, the success of republican goivern manit depends upon the intelli gence of the masses, and until Georgia erases this illiterate stigma she will not only merit the reproach of her sister states, but she will forfeit both' the prestige and the. leadership which her inherent wealth en titles her to retain.—Atlanta Georgian. 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 constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condi lion of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imper fect bearing, and when it is en tirely < losed, Deafness is the, re sult, and unless the inflamation can be taken out and this tube iestored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but ~n inflamed condition of the mu cous surfaces.

Much attention has been paid to the speech made by Chairman Gary of the steel trust at the dinner of the Illinois Society in New York recently, in which he declared that vested rights must yield whenever they become an tagonistic to the public welfare and safety. He urged that lead ing men in business should try to harmonize themselvm with public officials for the bettermem of government management. In, this connection Judge Gary said: “The opportunities for the acqui sition of wealth have been and are so great that large and in creasing fortunes of individuals and cprperations compel the most thoughtful men to dread the re sults of the future unless the in fluence and power of money can he controlled by government au thority. The question is too far reaching to be laughed out of court. If the power of money he not so controlled, who can tell when or how or to what extent' it may he attacked by the mob 1 ’ ’ For headache, dvapepaM ’la.
