convicted of rape in Murray county
l ist week and sentenced to 20 years in

Services at the First Baptist
Church Last Sunday.
The day was pleasant and the con
gregations were good and - seemed
attentive. In the Sabbath school
there were present 15 teachers and
officers. Whole number 130. Contri
taken up amounted to $2.25.
■ There was preaching at 11 a. m. and
at night, by the pastor. The sub
ject in the forenoon was living to the
glory of God —Corinthians I, x, 31.
“Whether, therefore, ye eat or drink,
or whatsoever ye do, do all to the
glory of God.” The subject was timely
and well discussed. The rule of life
with ever} 7 Christian should be to live
right, and in accordance with the, pre
cepts laid down by him whom he
professes to love and follow—thus hon
or his own profession and glorify God.
In the evening the subject was look
ing to Jesus, Hebrews XII, 2, “Look
ing unto Jesus, the author and finish
er of our faith.” Without Christ we can
do nothing—With him we can do all
things. In all our trials, privations
and troubles we should look to Jesus
and cast our care upon Him, for He
careth for us. If sinners would be
saved from their sins and the wrath to
come, they should look to Jesus. He
has provided salvation for all who de
■sire it, and will look to him
A Complimentary Incident.
Sometime since the drummer of a
Philadelphia book manufacturing con-,
cern had business in the office of Mr.
School the best county clerk in
Georgia. He was admiring Mr.
Sholl’s neat books, and asked
him if he never made a blot.
Mr. Sholl replied: “I’ll give you a
nickle for every blot you find on any
of them.”
“I’ll try you, “replied the drummer,
“I believe I can make more at that
than by selling books.”
He pulled off his coat and Mr. Sholl
gave him access to the records. For
an hour and a half he turned page af
ter page, and then was forced to give
it up. He had not found a single
“Well” said he. “I furnish books for

THE ARGUS; DALTON, GA., SATURDAY, MARCH 4, 1893.
Sugar from Cottonseed.
The cotton plant, which has for so
many centuries furnished a large part
of the population of the globe with
clothing, seems to be almost without
limit in usefulness, remarks a scien
tific authority.
From the seed a valuable oil is ex
tracted, while the husks form an arti
cle of food for cattle in the shape of
cakes From the lint which dings to
the seed after it has passed through
the “gin” felt is made, while the oil
extracted from the seed is applied to
quite a large number of purposes.
But according to the British consul,
Mr. Portal, of Zanzibar,cottonseed is
also capable of yielding sugar.
A process has been discovered for
extracting sugar from cottonseed meal,
and though the details of this process
have not been disclosed, it is said that
the product obtained is of very super
ior grade, being fifteen times sweeter
than cane sugar and twenty times
more so than sugar made from beets.
It cannot, however, enter intocompe
tetion as an article of commerce with
ordinary sugar, owing to its peculiar
tendency to ferment and sour.
This peculiarity may be due to some
chemical conditions of its extraction,
and a German chemist is at present
engaged on a series of experiments
with a view of discovering some means
of neutralizing this tendency.
