Fifteen new case*. ' AH the sick are doing well. H. R. Clark and T. T. Stockton, of the Times Union, both convalescing. The State Fair. Dr. H. H. Cary, superintendent of the needle wojjk and art department of the Georgia State Fair, was in Sat vannah Monday soliciting, exhibits. He told the News reporter that he thought that this yehr’s fair would surpass any fair that has been held in.Georgia. Extensive preparations are in progress, and „every effort to make it a success is being made. ''The outlook is encouraging for an immense exhibit^’says he. “W, L. Glcssner has thoroughly adver tised the fair up north and President ' Northern has been working the mat ter up in the counties.. They are . both encouragM over their success, and look for a display and attendance that dsofgia has never witnessed be fore at a fair.” I have been,canvassing the towns and cities inthe State for the past few weeks,” said Dr. Cary “and I find that everybody is alive and look ing lorward to the Fair. “All the little towns along the line of the Central railroad are going in to it with ah earnestness that means something. The premiums are lar ger by several thousand dollars this year than they were last year. We give $15,000 away in premiums this • iTipi'iiyftfftfiiiiii least fifteen counties represented by displays. Last year there were only about four. The railroads have con sented to bring every thing over their lines free., The Central rail road is doing its part in making the fair a success. The Central and East Tennessee, Virginia and Geor gia railroads have each given $500 to the fair, besides reducing the rate to one dent per mile round trip. The fair opens Nov. 5, and continues b!x foya” , . Y. M. C. A. Sociable. Next mondar evening the rooms of the Young Men's Christian Associa tion will bo’thrown'open for one of the social gatherings that hare pro ven so pleasant in the past. The La dies’ Auxiliary and the Beception Committee will devote themselves to ‘the pleasure of every guest, and see that every one enjoys himself. There will be no cast iron program, hut ev erything will be as informal and pleas ant as possible. Every well-wisher of the Association is cordially invited. Kansas Editor—“The Bazooper is not for sale at any price to-day, Mr. Cash.” Cash—“How’s that? . You were anxious to dispose of it for for anything you could get yesterday.” Editor—“Yesterday, to be sure. But this morning I learned that four cir- ‘ cuses would visit Boomopolis this summer, and 1*11 have you know, sir ,this office always gets four compli mentary tickets from each show. No sir, the paper is not for sale at any price. Why, man alive, a wo man with one of the shows eats glass —actually eats it” Wbat the people most desire in the way of postal benefits just now is not one cent letter rate, but .more rapid and more frequent mails. Fosmaster-General Dickinson is giv ing these improvements faster than they ever came before. One «ent postage will come naturally in the order of time, and it Is not for dls tant, hot there are other good things that will end should precede it TWO PICTURES. Look on this and then on that, and Note the Cause. THE FIRST PICTURE. Brunswick—fair, beautiful Bruns wick—with her streets filled with ac tivity, her docks groaningbeneath the weight of cotton, naval stores' and other merchandise, her river and harbor studded with the masts of many vessels, her railroads working to their utmost to fbrnish transpor tation for the freights that offer, her business houses filled with the bustle of commerce, her hotels and boarding house# crowded with visi tors who flock to enjoy her balmy air and sunny skies, her’people content ed and happy, and their coffers heavy with lucre. 1 THE SECbMD PICTURE. Brunswick—fair, beautiful Bruns, wick—her sunshines as bright as ever, and her breezos blow with all the balminess of hdr wont, but over her hangs a pall as heavy and dark ns night itself, her dooks are bare, her harlkir glistens in the sun, with scarcely a vessel to break the ex panse of wnteg her streets are de serted, her hotels closed, her people filled with a gloom and despondency that cannot be dispelled, their hearts are breaking for the devastation that Death has wrought, in her cemeter ies many graves are covered with earth still damp, and on everything 1b written the word so full of horror —“Epidemic.” THE DIFFERENCE. And why these two pictures? And easy—an epidemic of yellow fever— which Brunswick has so narrowly es caped this year.' We say “narrow ly,” for indeed it has been. We have had a hot bed of this terrible disease within easy reach of us, and we be lieve and affirm with all seriousness that its blighting breath would have surely made the first picture become the second had we been less strict in our precautions for its exclusion. Absolute quarantine is the only pre ventive under circumstances such as we are now passing through, and those two words we wish to impress upon our people as the watchwdrd for the future. Of courso we do not wish to be un derstood as advocating the shutting of ourselves from the balance of the world every season, but when the en emy appears in dangerous proximity, shut and seal the gate of intercourse. Brunswick can now feel reasonably sure of her safety for this year, and with heartiness do we extend our congratulations to our people, and in their name thank the officials and employes who have so faithfully done their duty, urging them to be vigi lant yet a little longer, lest at the last moment we lose all we have gained. The past summer was the wettest that England has experienced since 1879, and jibe coolest since 1860. In most parts of the country the *®un has not shone more than an average of four to four and one-half hours per day instead of a'possible four teen or fifteen. .In Scotland the dai ly average has been about five hours. Public School. All the scats in the White Prepar atory School, and in the First and Second Grades of the Nelson Gram mar School, have been filled. It will therefore be impossible to receive any more pupils in those depart ments. There are fifteen vacant seats in the Third and Fourth Grades of the Nelson Grammar 8chool, and fifteen In tbo various Grades of the Glynn High School. A. I. Biunhan, Superintendent Intelligent negroes irill find some very interesting food’ for reflection in this campaign. Not long a negro procession was pelted with stones in the streets of New T#k by republi can bullies. Last week a young ne gro named Joseph Pearl attempted to make a speech at Adrlon, Mich., for the democratic nominees. He was driven from the platform by a set of republican “toughs” who hurl ed bricks and aged eggs at him. While the negroes of the north and west'Ore subjected to such outrages for daring to speak their honest views they bold all kinds of meet ings unmolested throughout the south. The democrats Of Charles- have nominated a negro on their leg islative ticket. Gem Sherman would probably like to burn Charleston as he burned Atlanta and Columbia. An effort was made i to establish a shad hatchery in Atlanta, but it signally failed. The artesian water injures the eggs so that they will not hatch, and thenUiqr water used in Atlanta goes Rwough tbo filtering process and the gas id the water kills them. The planting? of shad was begun eight years ago. The first plant that was made was 3,000,000 fish. Each year since the number has increased until now 20,000,000 are planted every spring. Dr. Ca rey thought that he jkould be able to bring the carp plant up to the same number of fish per year aa shad. « » +L *— ; : The points.of an oyster are, first, the shape, which should resemble the petal of a rose le& Next, the bickness of thftjfelK a thorough china. It should alto'possess an al most metallic ring and a peculiar opalescent lustre on the inner side. The hollow for the animal should resemble on egg cup, and the flesh should be firm, white and nut-like. A bakers dozen of young men out in a Nebraska town organized a thir teen club, in defiance of the common superstition that bad luck would follow. Everyone of them has since been married. Opinion will be di vided as to whether in this instance superstition has been justified or re buked.' .ifc #»>«»■ Every democrat in Georgia ought to vote on the sixth of November. Whether the vote be light or heavy tpe state is safe, but it 1b a privi lege to cast a ballot for a ticket com posed of Cleveland and Thurman. Vpte.
