The Geo nr in Chautauqua.
The ninth annual assembly of
Georgia Chautauqua concluded
session in Albany Sunday morning,
Like previous sessions, this
exercises were a source of pleasure
to the visitors, and nil who attended
speak in glowing terms of the
and highly enjoyable programme pre¬
sented.
Every day was a special one, so
speak, and eclipsed the
of the crowds in attendance.
Owing to the very bad
hundreds of people were
from going, and as the expense
tached to this institution is
large and the recoipts were not
good this year as in the past,
were expressed by many as
whether Chautauqua would
another year. Everybody hopes,
however, that Chautauqua, under its
present efficient management, will
make both ends meet,, and that she
will live for years to come.
It is difficult to place a fair esti¬
mate on the damage to tho farms of
Calhoun county. Rome sober-think¬
ing citizens say it will reach $30,000.
ThS'tjhristian nations of the world
are giving out no protest at the action
of the Turks in Armenia and Crete.
Their endeavors are all in the lino of
disciplining the Greeks and Christians
who are doing all in their power to
protect their families and their honor
against tho rapine and outrages of
the Mussltmen. Tho liberty-loving
spirit of Europe will t so above “tho
divine right” of kings and the powers
of the church yet, and give to more
of Europo than little Crete a bettor
manhood, and a freer conscience to
the creatures of organized govern¬
ment.’
The Monitor has no patience with
any man, whether he be president
or hod carrier, who will villify his
fellow countryman behind his back
just because be belongs to tho Third
party, the Gold Democrats, Republi¬
can party, in-the-middle-of-the-road
Populist, or any other party he
thinks right. This is a republican
form of government, and so long as
any citizen pays respect to our glo¬
rious old constitution and flag wo aro
with him to tho extent of tho priyi
lege of worshipping under his own
vine and tig tree and choosing his
politics, let him be white or black,
green or “yaller.” This sheet is go
ing to advocate what it thinks is for
the good of our town, county, State
and Union fence or no fence.
The people of Hawaii seem to be
ujving us of the United States a great
deal of thought at present, and all
w ith a view to having our land sad¬
dled with a responsibility for tho
good ©f the sugar planters. In the
papers eomiug from the island, says
tho Petaluma Courier, wo read of
how many dollars can be made to
our government by annexation, but
not one word about how much better
citizens we can make of ourselves or
the islanders by tho moye. Tho pa¬
pers are full of items relating to the
benefits of a free country, and of ad
vertisements for contract labor from
both China and Japan. The outlook
for any benefit to freo American
labor is not visible in any annexation
-proposition.
The Dingley tariff trill was reported
to the House of Representatives oti
March 18. Accompanying it is a
lengthy report, which contains many
half truths, and makes it appear mis¬
leading in several ways. The report
claims that it will be necessary t<>
maintain a reserve of $150,000,000,
instead of $100,000,000, as heretofore
precedented. There was in the treas¬
ury wnen Carlislo turned it over to
Shertnan more than $200,000,000,
which heavens knows is enough to
keep out of circulation, yet the new
bill is framed to furnish more reve¬
nue. No one ever heard of a Re
publican congress wanting to cut
down expenses or economize. It is
always “increase tho revenue.” The
people do tho paying and so long as
they are bamboozled in the way they
pay. and don’t know it, it is consid
ered right. The bill hopes to encour¬
age wool growing and sugar beet
culture. The President is also au
thorized to do the reciprocal act with
many countries, lt is intended that
the bill will go into effect immedi¬
ately on its passage.

Jim Plowden says "if you want good
chewing tobacco got the Nigger Baby

am inclined to think, though, that Jim
dees not liko plug tobacco much and is
talking to keep up his courage until ho
finishes the two pounds.

Rov. Sam P. Jones.
A representative of the MONITOR
was afforded tho pleasure of listen¬
ing to two discourses of the justly
celebrated Sam P. Jones at the
Georgia Chautauqua in Albany Sat¬
urday night and Sunday morning.
Mi. Jonas is, in our humble esti
mation, a wondeiful man, and, al¬
though we don’t exactly admire bis
style of preaching, he is a power in
the cause of Christianity. One may
form a dislike for Mr. Jones before
seeing bitn, but wo think that their
opinions would undergo a change
after hearing him espouse the cause
of God.
Beyond a doubt, ho is an excellent
example of tho uplifting influences
of Christianity, for, as, ho says, be¬
fore becoming a Christian, he was a
drunkard, and a man in name only.
He took occasion to givo tho sa¬
loon keepers anil the people who
drink several hard raps, which
caused a few uncomplimentary re¬
marks.
However, we take up Mr. Jones’s
side of tho question, tor his argu¬
ments on this and every otlror viola¬
tion of God’s laws aro convincing
and his illustrations are beautiful
and pathetic, showing tho truo light
of worldliness.
In conclusion we will assert that
Mr. Jones can depart from any town
and afterwards more followers ol
the cross will be found there than
could have been before he entered i'.

liEPQBTED liY WILL HOSE.
Fonas, Ga.. March 29.
I have just read of the hoirible catae-
tiophe that casts so deep a gloom over
the surrounding country, the terrible
doom that befell those pure, trusting,
loving, innocent children who were
crushed and mangled 'neatlx the heavy
limbers that were, by an unseen hand
hurled precipitately upon their precious
bodies, mangling some beyond reeog.
nition.
Oh, how sad ’ JJow my heart goes
oat in tender pity to those fond parents
whose darlings were snatched from them,
as it were, in a moment. Language
contains no word that can describe the
heartfelt , svmpathy that . 1 , let , J ior ,. those
who . called ,, i bear , ....
were upon to this tern -
ble ordeal.
Death is sad at all times and under all
circumstances, bnt when death’s icy
hand snatches from us our loved ones
without a moment's warning our grief is
rendered almost Unbearable,
None of those who were bereft are
known to me only by name, but alilie-
tion makes strangers our friends, and,
altho' they are all us strangers to me, my
heart, in this hour of deep sorrow and
affliction, is filled with loving sympathy,
and I would that I conkl utter one word
of comfort to cheer the broken heart and
wounded spirit of some one who has
been so recently bereft of the most pro-
I cions gift that God can bfetow,- a ten-
tier, trustful boy or girl.
But let us not niuimer, dear parents;
’twos God who gave those dear ones;
His voice has called '* i them ui m home nouio, and umi,
whilo His ways sometimes seem wreath-
ed ih mystery, \vc should ever remember
that He is our Father, ’ that He chastens
those whom He loves, and that His ways
are wise and tends r, and lie sometimes
carries us through tho fires of adversity
for the purpose of consuming tho dross
and refining the pure gold contained in
our natures.
And while the hand of affliction has
fallen heavily upon you, I sincerely
trust that the sunshineof God’s love will
fill your hearts with a refulgent light
that time can never erase.
The waters aro abating somewhat, and
the bridges are being repaired in this
community, but there arc ponds here
that seldom contain but very little water,
which are full to overflowing. There
places ponds where I
are some near water

Was almost deep enough to swim a horse.
Our oldest settlers say in this loug-rc-
memberod rain more water fell than they
remember ever having seen before.
Several of our farmers will have the

PLACE NAMES.
Some 0«1<1 and Curious Nbtjv-B of PlacoH
In T?1 ttHsaoliiiscttfl.
In tho Middlesex fells some good old
colonial names aro preserved, like Jin-
gkvjerry hill and Shillyshally brook.
Spot pond was named by Governor
Winthrop, who discovered it iu tho win¬
ter, because of tho marry rooks 'that
showed through the ico and spotted the
surface. Powderhorn hill in Chelsea is
said to have boon bought, from the In¬
dians for a hornful of powder.
Tho fact of misfortune to divers un¬
known persons—whether trivial or great
docs not appear—finds a record in Bad
Luck brook and swamp in Rehoboth,
Bad Luck mountain iu Granville and
Bad Luck pond in Douglas. There may
be somo association between Bnrnooat
brook aud pond in Leicester and Sponcer
and Bnrnsbirt river, likewise in Worces¬
ter county.
Drinkwnter rivor is a felicitous name
f° r » stream of good water. It is in
Hanover, and possibly there may have
been a family of that immo in tho neigh¬
borhood. Strong Water brook in Tewks¬
bury has quite different associations.
Sought For pond, iu Westford, suggests
n long and baffled quest for the spot
through tho wilderness in the oldon
days. One of the least euphonious of
uamos is Skog river in Essex and Mid¬
dlesex counties. It is worthy a place
among such English names as Worm-
wood Scrubs, a park in. London.
Tho legend about tho names of the
group of islands on tho smith coast pro-
scuts an instance of how fancied rasem-
1,1 ances givo rise to stories. It is related
that these islands once belonged to a
man with four daughters. To Nancy,
the oldest, the father gave the first
choice, und the fact that “Nan took it’*

ory, there was nothing left bnt the most
remote and undesirable of the group,
which wns called No Alan’s Land, bo-
cause its owner was a woman. The
Elizabeth islands, in fact, were named
f °r Queen Elizabeth try Bartholomew
Gosuoid, their discoverer, whose niuno
has been given to the town that com¬
prises them.—Boston Transcript.
Mailing Candy Abroad,
A young mail who apparently knows
a girl in London came into the office the
other day and asked whether candy
could bo sent abroad through the mails,
