Brown is president, has made ar rangements to greatly improve its property all over the state. The eomprny owns the Dade coal mines, the Castle Rock coal company, tho Walker iroi and cool company, the Goorgia iron and coal company, and the Bartow iron and maganese company. In ordor to make a number of permanent improvements in the pltnta and to increase the working capital, tho ivunrfmny Will Issue a half million dollars worth of bonds of one thousand dollars each. In order to sell these bonds the company has, under the signature of its president, Senator Joseph IS. Brown, filed a deed of a trust in the clerk’s office of the superior court, to the Metropolitan Trust company of New York city. The Georgia oorapany mortgages for this purpose to the Metropoli tan Trust company 3,475 shares of the Dade fcoal company. 1,975 in the Walker Iron and coal com pany, and forty-four bonds of the Chattanooga Iron company, The entire amount, valuing the shares at SI,OOO each the Dado and Walker companies, and SSOO each in the Chattanooga company, is sl,- 439,000. This amount is far from being the value of tne entire property of the company. The bonds are gold bonds and Tile first SIOO,OOO will he employ ed in making permanent improve ments in the plants of the company and the remaining $400,000 will he used as an additional working capi tal. This simply means that the oom pany is outgrowing its present fa cilities and that a million dollars vill ho expended in improving its plants. Even the most vigorous and hearty people have at times a feeling of lassi tude ami weariness. To dispel this fooling take Dr. J. 11. McLean’s Sarsa parilla; it will impart vitality and ig or.

My item is especially for young spare made farmer boys, “one of whom I am which.” I am binding wheat and oats, guess mogt of the boys are, too. I found considerable inconvoi enoe in the mauner of tho fit of my pants. I oonoluded to try another pair. In searching for another pair, I came aoross a pair that seemed of entirely a new fit for me; and jumping into them. When I came into my mother’s presenoe, she exclaimed with a laugh: “Those are your uncle Bob’s pants, What are you doing in them r Feeling easy, I answered. She insisted that I should with draw and don my own attire for the harvest field. But I was determined, and now boys, I want uncle Bob’s patterns to cut all my pants by, for they are the easiest fit for a grain binder, I ever struck. I will also say to said uncle if he doesn’t want his pants to go grain gathering, on asmall boy, he must not lay them around these prem ises. I will close by saving troys, if vour garments oppress you this hot weather, just get your uncle Bob’s pants and ‘liteout.’ Mr, editor, be sure and let the hoys know through your valuable paper in time to get the benefit of it this season, Will Rob Taylor. a. . ..,m-a-, pjog poj? v ->Ap* pun 'no A ujnu him II SUX-llt’l A out v..v J tOHU iu- puduaSSJU *unnou ioj pooS ‘}uo mo* sju noi U) s.vnoV v im uuox .a Sick headache, billiousuess, nausea, cnstiveucss, are promptly, agreeably banished by Dr. J?

Last Saturday June Bth wo had the pleasure of attending a picnic at “Cave Springs Minor;” one mile south-east of Rising Fawn Furnace. Our weariness from a very un pleasant freight train ride and the rather tiring walk necessary to reach our destination, was entire ly dispelled as we feasted our eyes upon the rustic beauty of tire »j*ot chosen as the picaicing place. For natural soenery a prettier spot could scarcely be found. The t»old spring gushing from beneath large rocks just at the foot oi the mountain afforded a threefold de light : its gentle murmurings steal ing softly upon our senses, and, for the time, at least; lulling all our cures; the fresh ooolness it gave the atmosphere, afforded re freshment that was to us a boon, aud as we drank ot its cooling wa ters our appreciation of this foun tain was complete. o u-ft as we had become sweetly refreshed by all those means of “Mother Nature,” we were treated to a very interesting talk by Mr. Jinks which was followed by a not less appreciated one bj” Mr. J. W. Blevins; whose eulogies of the school, for which the picnic was given, and of the teacher, were modestly received by him, while all felt they were highly merited. IT WAS SAID THAT: Thehoys seemed dreadfully bash - ful. The oldest student in school was tho beat looking youug man pres ent, . * Mr. Collingsworth Amos was the most liberal young man at the pic nic.

Mr. Bleviu’s beeswax joko was greatly appreciated by the young men, m A certain married young lady ex ceeded all the girls in point of loveliness. Dinner was by no means scarce neither in vuality or quantity. All things passed off pleasantly, Trixie. Rising Fawn. Mr, O, J*. Winston and family, have come from West Point, Ga., to make this their future home, as Mr. Winston is already in business here. We all welcome thorn among us. Big time next Monday, Ma sonic dinner at Everett’s Springs. son of Shade and Linnie Hale, aged 6 months. It was only left to ‘hem a short time to brighten their now desolate home; as a tender hud, it was rudely broken from its parent stem and closed its baby blue eyes forever to the temptations and dis appointments of this sinful world. Papa and mama cheer up and strive to gain that happy home where baby Frank now clasp his baby hands in joy that he is free from all pain, and lay your lacer ated hearts at the feet of Jesus for he alone can heal a broken heart. Died at the Furnace Sunday Mrs, Irene Lankford, after a short and painful illness of six days, caused from getting overheat. She had been on a visit to a friend some distance from her home and while on her way a storm came up and in running to get out of it got wet. We sympathize with the bereaved ones. We all feel proud of our new preacher, Brother Bettiecel. Hope to find him a good Christian man, and one all the members of his church will appreciate and be proud of, taults of digestion cause disorders of the liver, aud the w'.olo system becomes deranged.

The Large Bars in Andy Brown’s Barn Jim WoolOrifflit’s Experience With Black Gum Trees—Effects of Second Cutting Clover Hay. If the shade Irees in front of Jacoway’s law office could talkjthey would spin yarns equal to Joe Mulhatton. Dick Graham, Col. I. E. Shu mate, Col. Dabney and scores of lessor lights have spun yarns under them, The Alliance store lias had a kind of throne erected under one of them for the president of the Loafers Club, which ho has been holding down pretty successfully of late. When Saturday or a rainy day comes, a crowd gathers around it and of all the yarns ever told, some of their mates are spun here. Such was the case the other morning. The heavy rains bad driven the farmer out of his fields and into town. The president of the club after having the secretary to call the roll found that Wilburn O’Neal and Mart Crabtree had made them selves very conspicuously absent end after entering a fine, the mem bers were called on to tell what the}- had learned during life. Jim Wollbright.—“The only thing I have to ted is very strange, and 1 would like for some member of the club to explain. It is a very strange phenomenon. Some of you may have experienced the same. It is this: You cut down a lot of black gum trees in the winter and pile them up into a heap, and burn them up, and in the spring tne ashes will sprout aud bloom.” rr ' X - 4 Kr\Ay Brown. Mr. Brown is a reliable gentleman and is one of Dade’s foremost farmers. He lias a well stocked barn and a few months ago had a rat-killi;ig. Said Mr. Brown: “The rats were plentiful and large. Sume of the largest I over saw in my life,” and continued Mr. Brown, “there were rats killed there that would weigh forty pounds or more.” Bob Smith—“Do you know that the second cutting ot clover, will, when ted to oxen or anv ot her cat tle cause their feet to get ten der? Well, sir, it will, Chester Daniel told me so, and he said he had tried it. He said that he had bought a load of second cuttings and hauled it home to feed to his cattle and in a week they were so •stiff and their feet so tender ihat lie could not haul with them. CATCH HIM! Ten Dolla s Reward Will be Paid. Last Monday night, while waiting at the depot for the north bound passenger train, No. 6, some low down thief cut my grip open and stole everything out of it. It con tained one 88 calibre Bfcith & Wes son revolver, with my name engrav. ed on it, a pair of gloves, a pair of cuds with a set of button in them, two memorandum books, which contained some papers, accounts, etc., one of which contained a pri vate letter and mv color blind cer tificate tor the railroad. I will pay $lO for the return of the articles or the finding of them. Send to me care of R. S. Rodgers, agent.; or for information leading to the finding out who hid it; or I will pay a liberal reward for any one of the artioles, with whatever infor mation can be given. I would like to get the letter, if nothing else, as it is of no value to any one, Geo, Moore. Baggage Master. 122 Hellen St, A $25,000 Suit. In the city court yesterday the case of Sarah F.
