IN CONNECTION WITH
The Lszv Man attended the readings
given by Richard Malcolm Johnston in
this city. The first thing that attract
ed his attention, of course, was the
crowd. The rooms were pretty well
filled, mostly with Lucy'Cobb girls,
but still there might have been more
E resent. Why, the roofns ought to
ave been crowed to overflowing.
The University of Georgia is an in
stitution of high literary standing, and
i et there were few students out to hear
Ir Johnston. Where were the differ
ent professor-t throughout the city;
where were the variou* literary clubs
of which Athens boasts?
.%
There seemed to be a remarkable
dearth of them at the entertainment.
They seemed to forget that one of the
most distinguished writers of America
was the honored guest. And all the
L izy Man has to say on the subject is
that those who were absent missed a
genuiue literary treat.
***
The S mth baa furuished and is still
furnishing some of the greatest writers
of the age. They write in a style pe
culiar to their native section.
Charming, ' fluent, attractive,
they wield most facile
pens and enrich the republic of letters.
•*»
The Lazy Man managed to get
around to the opera house and see a few
acts of “Among the Breakers.” It
took a considerable portion of his iner
tia away. While not desirous of seeing
any of our young people become actors
and acireues, still 1 delight iu amateur
th luricals. 1 am not such a moralist
as to condemn them. There may be
harm in them, hut I fail to see it.
^ •**
The ci'y has some admirable dramat
ic talent and can put upon llie stage a
creditable performance of almost any
play that comes along. The Dramatic
Association has several plays 111 hand,
and the people of Athens will tie enter-
taiue I a great deal iu the future with
amueur theatricals.
And while ou this subject it maybe
well to say that a great many of college
ooni iieiiceiueul* (not iu Athens, of
course) resemble to a great
degree the amateur theatrical exliibi
tio.it. Tue orator paws the floor op

~A dull thud and then silence.
“One blow for vengeance!”
Thera was a ring of triumph in the
Voice of Grasshopper-Pete as he waved
aloft a blood stained razor and shouted:
“One blow for vengeance! Gingercake
Jack Is done for!”
Then Gingercake Jack, with a low,
curdling groan, crawled off tn the dark-
new fo die.
The scene of the tragedy waa a dark
room in the rear of .the Bloody Razor
dance hall, on Thompson street
Grasshopper Pete waa on the trail of
his enemies, and he had drawn first
blood.
A year before the opening of this etory
Grasshopper Pete was a light hearted,
innocent negro. Helhed-down in the
Mississippi swamps, ou the lawks of the
muddy Yazoo, and earned a miserable
existence catching muskrats and mala
ria.
in an evil hour Pete fell in love. He
had often fallen in tlie river, but it was
the first time be had ever fallen is love,
and the sensation wus new to him. He
felt a little shak^ at first The doctor
said it was chills made him feel that
way, but Pete knew it was love.
Samantha Sowdera was the black ob
ject of Pete's affection. He udoreri her.
and for a time aho smiled on him.
One night Pete was on his way down
the river to the cabin of Samantha to
propose. His boat was drifting nloug
with the current, when he heard the
sound of voices and the dip of oars. Pete
pulled alongside the other Imat, and
turned pale us summer moonlight when
he saw his* loved Samantha nestling in
the arms of Watermelon Jim, n yellow
negro with a blind eye. Gingercake
Jack und Snaky Dan were at the ours.
Whir you gwine, S’raanthaF* shouted
Pete in alarm.
Tse gwine off fur to marry Jim," Sa
mantha afiswered.
What you gwine to marry dat one
eyed nigger for?" ,
“Ease he shoots craps an’ wins money.
You g'way from licah, nigger; dis chile
sint qo fool, 1 uinL”
“Shoot 11, catch 7, pull ’way, boys.’’
shouted Jim, and soon Pete's boat was
left far astern.
Pete's intended bride was gone like a
will-o’-the-wisp, but as the Sound of
mocking laughter came to his ears across
the muddy waters of the Yazoo a chill
shook him up and he swore to be re
venged.
He knew that Watermelon Jim. like
all crap shooting negroes, would go from
bad to worse, and in time would reach
Thompson street.
In his lonely cabin, with only the chills
and fever to keep him company, Pete
bided his time.

The dance has been a gay one. Seven
teen times razors have flashed in tin-
brilliant gnsoliue light, seventeen revel
ers have been dragged into the alley
covered with blood, and not a police
man ha* been seen.
Suddenly there is a flutter of excite
ment in the ballroom, a suppressed mur
inur of applause, as a stranger is intro
duced. He is announced as Blizzard
Bill, of New Orleans, who pluys police
and carries seven razors.
Blizzard Bill is Grasshopjier Pete in
disguise, and he is on the trail of his
enemies. By chance he wanders into
the back room, where Gingercake J ack
is watching for the police. In the dark
ness he recognizes his enemy, aud with
three blows of his razor lays Jack low.
Back to the dance hall goes Pete, and
waving his bloody razor above bis head
be shouts: “The world is mine! Let rid
dance go on!”
The dance goes on faster and more
furious tbufi before.
Swing dem corners!” shouts Snaky
Dan. ,
He never shouts again. A razor crosses
his jugular, and the subsequent proceed
ings interest him no more.
See hech, nigger! What for you stop-
pin’ that fiddle for."
It is Watermelon Jim who speaks this
time, and those are his last words.
Drawing three razors, Pete springs at
his hated rival. The members of the
band tune up their fiddles, while Jim’s
7«as,t&bb are carried out into the alley
and tenderly laid in an ash barrel.
At last yon are miner cries Pete, as
he clasps Samantha in his arms, and they
go out to mingle with the darkness.—
New York Evening Son.
COMBINED MARKER AND FVRKOWKR.
other piece is bolted and allowed to ex
tend six iuchee forward and afoot or
more backward. A V shaped piece of
iron fastened upon this receives one end
of the gauge, which is firmly braced by
a three-eighths inch iron rod connecting
with a ring bolt at the forward extremity
or the center piece, thus admitting of
motiou from side to side only in a per
pendicular plane. This does away with
all cords attached to the harness, and
variation from unequal pulling of the
team is avoided.
Into the center piece and rear cross
piece stout legs of some elastic timber
are inserted, which support a seat at a
proper height. The front corners of this
seat are rounded and the center of the
front end cut slightly hollow. It is
placed just far enough forward to allow
this hollow part to rest solidly against
the gauge when in a perpendicular posi
tion, as in the engraving, holding it se
curely while turning or in driving to aud
from the field. To prevent wear » piece
of strap iron is tacked across the front
end of the seat, aud another on the gauge
where it strike* the seat. The elasticity
of the legs allows the gauge to pass the
slight swell on either side. The driver
can operate this Without leaving hi*
place, as would be necessary with other
forms, and when raised both hands are
free to use the lines.
Of course the distance from the center
of the machine to the ccuter of the gauge
marker must be exactly twice that be
tween the centers of the runners. Tin
gauge murker is made comparatively
light, 14 or 15 inches high, and but 9 01
10 inches long, the object of making it si
high being to carry the pole above the
rnnner. This is rather a disadvantage
for it is much more liable to break by
catching ou stones and roots than if i
were lower and shaped differently (se<-
second cut. Fig A).
Another improvement of doubtful gen
oral utility, but especially suited to hi.-
case, was made by a neighbor, whose
<^H[ *(J
SECTION OF* MARKER,
farm is rather hilly. He found that hi
marker would slide down hill despite
every effort, aud to remedy this he made
his runners of two 14-inch pieces bolted
together, with a piece of a crosscut saw
blade at the bottom of each, extending
nearly the entire length of the rnnner
and two inches below it. as shown in the
second cut (Fig. B). It proved a success
with him, but turning is rendered much
more difficult, and where not absolutely
necessary it is thought best to omit this
feature.
To make a furrower of this machine
cut out a deep but very narrow mortise
in each rnnner (see dotted lines iu the
second cat, B). These are made to re
ceive the forward ends of wrought iron
beams, carrying a large cultivator shovel
short distance behind each runner.
Handles ore attached to these beams,
and when turning or driviug to and fro
the beams are thrown forward until they
rest against the front edge of the mor
tise in a nearly upright position. The
beauts should be placed as low as possi
ble, that they may not interfere with
the gauge whilt, in use. A 2-inch
hole cat through just below, the mortise
allows the escape of any dirt that may
foil into it. While jost this form of im
plement may not be needed on-many
farms, there are good points about it
which may be made of practical use by
nearly every farmer.
