An official census gives 6,000,000
as the number of Jews in the world
at the commencement of this year.
About half of these is living in Rus
sia, while the American Jewish
population is stated to be only 250,-
000. But the most temarkable
feature of the return is an array of
figures showing that the number of
Joews iu the world has scarcely
varied 100,000 for several centuries.
Buch a standstill in the matter of
increase or decrease in population
is without a precedent in the his
tory of nations or nationalities:
DEATH AND DESTRUCTION!
The most disastrous calamity that
ever happened in this country oc
curred in Pennsylvania a few days
gince. Half a dozen fowns were
wiped from the face of the carth.
A mighty deluge brought desolation
to a populous valley. It is estima-~
ted that from 8,000 to 15,000 lives
were lost, and many millions of
dollars worth of property was de
stroyed. At Johnstown, a city of
several thousand inhabitants, there
was an almos’t entire destruction
of both life and property. It was
caused by the breaking of a dam of
a fishing reservoir just above the
valley. It was the largest reservoir
in the United States. The calam
ity has no equal in the history of
the country. As the waters recede
mangled forms are being taken
from the debris by hundreds andi
buried. Great suffering prevails, ‘
and the scenes are utterly indeseri
bable. Assistance is being ren
dered as fast as possible.
Worth Knowing.
Mr. W. H. Morgan, merchant,
Lake City, Fla., was taken with a
severe Cold, attended with a dis
tressing Cough and running into
Consumption in its first stages.
He tried many so-called popular
remedies and steadily grew worse.
Was reduced in flesh, had difficulty
in breathing and was unable to
sleep. Finally tried Dr. King’s
New Discovery for Consumption
and found immediate relief, and
after using about a half dozen bot
tles found himself well and has bad
no return of the disease. No other
remedy can show so grand a record
of cures, as Dr. King’s New Dis
covery for Consumption. Guaran
teed to do just what is claimed for
it.—T'rial bottle free at Summerville
& Co’s. Drug Store.
The losses by fire in this country
in 1888 were nearly §1,000,000 less
than in 1887. For some time the
average annual loss has been about
$110,000,000. It is stated that
most of the fires in the south last
year were attributed to incendiar
ism. Probably thig is also true
with respect to those in the north.
While it may not be true that most
of the fires in this country are of
incondiary origin, it is a fact that
most of them are thought to be.
There is more Cattarrh in this
section of the country than all
other diseases put together, and
until the last few years was sup
posed to be incurable. For a great
many years Doctors pronounced it
a local disease, and prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly fail
ing to cure with local treatment,
nronounced it incurable. Science
has proven catarrh to be a constitu
tional disease, and therefore re
quires constitutional treatment.
Hall’s Catarrh Cure, manufactured
by F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo,
Ohio, is the only constitutional cure
on the market. It is taken inter
nally in doses from 10 drops to a
teaspoonful. It acts directly upon
the blood and mucus surface of the
gystem,. They offer one hundred
dollars for any case it fails to cure.
Send for circulars and testimonials.

A stock ecompany with a capital
of §B,OOO has been organized at
Cedawown for the establishment of
a fruit farm. About 100 acres will
be put in strawberries, raspberries,
grapes, etc. . This is a good move,
and we predict a grand success.
This section of Georgia is the finest
fruit country in the sonth.
Many people think that the word
“Bitters’’ can be used only in con

COUGH!!!
What in the world is the reason

cines when Beggs’ Cherry Cough

TALLAPOOSA: ITEMS.
Eprror Banyer:—l only promise
a few items this week. Iverything
is calm and serene at present.
We were awakened at 4 o’clock
this morning by the sound of the
fire-bell, and at once discovered
the Willis house in a blaze., All
the contents in the buildmg were
consumed in a few moments.
The sick of our town are all im
proving, except Bertie Little, who
is very low. :
Mr. J. M. Stewart, of Cedartown,
paid us a pleasant. visit this week,
and we were very glad to meet him,
as he is one of our best friends. He
is one of the most prominent citi
zens of Cedartown.
Dr. Smith and Sheriff Holcombe,
of Buchanan, were in town Satur
day. :
Miss Bettie Camp has returned
home from a visit to Douglasville.
Misses Nana and Issie Fuson
have returned home from Fort
Payne, where they have been vis
iting relatives.
The base-ball club from Buchan
an came down last Saturday to
play against the Tallapoosa club.
The game was well carried on for
some two hours, in which Buchanan
came out winner by one round.
Mrs. Cora Head has returned
from Douglasville, where she has
been visiting relatives.
In company with Mr. Billie Wil
son I had the pleasure of making a
pleasant visit to Buchanan Satur
day evening, where I met many
warm friends and had a good time
generally. Those people know just
how to make you feel at home. On
Sunday with a number of them we
took the north bound train for Fel
ton, a beautiful village on the C.
R. & C. railroad. There was an
all-day singing in session. We
had but a short time to stay, but
while there they treated us with
some of the best music we have
heard for quite a while. We were
sorry we could not spend more time
with them. We then returned to
Buchanan and repaired to the Love
less House, where we had some
more fine music on the organ by
Miss Florence Young. Monday we
left for home, accornpanied by Col.
Edwards as far as Kramer. We
are always pleased to have such
polite and liberal gentlemen as he
is with us. ‘We were soon at home
and found all things well.

Renews Her Youth.
Murs. Phoebe Chesley, Peterson,
Clay Co., lowa, tells the following
remarkable story, the truth of which
is vouched for by the residents of
the town: “I am 78 years old,
have been troubled with kidney
complaint and lameness for niany
years; could not dress myself with
out help. Now lam free from ali
pain and soreness, and am able to
do all my own housework. 1 owe
my thanks to Electric Bitters for
having renewed my youth, and re
moved completely all disease and
pain.”’ Try a bottle, 50c. and sl.
at Summerville & Co’s. Drug Store.
The cotton seed oil indusiry lis
growing rapidly in South Carolina.
Wince Jan. 1, 1889, there have been
sixteen applications for charters for
cotton seed oil mills in that state.
This is very good evidence that the
industry is a paying one. ‘
HOW CAN PARENTS
allow their children to cough and
strain and cough and calmly say:
“Oh! it is only a little cold,”’ and
keep giving them cheap and dan
gerous medicines, until they are
down with lung fever or consump
tion, when they can be 80 easily re
lieved by Beggs’ Cherry Cough
Syrup? 1t has no superior, and few
equals. Summerville & Cnfi%w
