THE ORPHANS • Six States Represented in The Recent Conference. f MUCH GOOD ACCOMPLISHED A Great Movement In The Right Direction. The Orphans Home Conference jus' he d in Atlanta was a decided success. About forty homes for destitute children were represent ed not only By consecrated but workers whose wide awake brains are seeking new and betterr meth ods of bringing out the largest manhood possible. The intense love for ihe worst outcast was voiced by every one. These workers represented six states and 5000 orphans, and Dr. Vass of South Carolina said that there were twenty turned away for every one received. The citi zens must help these strugaln g Homes with building and equip ment and support, for th* y save society from ninny a criminal. The noble addresses of Doctors Jacobs, Muniferd, Boone, Stewa-t, Waddell, Senn, Lawrence and others were capped by an appeal to these State to ste that refnrmaties for the young crimi nals were founded, that we might make good citizens of them, and not educate them more deeply in crime by ourp resent methods. Rv. Dr. W. W . Landrum spoke with great power of reformations and a committe was appointed to press the matter. Mr. George Mull called atten tion to the facr that so many chil dren were being reared to la ziness and worthlessness by being allowed to stay in onr poor house The conference reso'ved that the people must be brought to rea'ize the injury to these helpless chil d m, ai d provide huntsf). t em where the models will lilt them up. The interest was so great that a conference will be held eacl year. The < fficers are Rev. W. P. Jacobs D.D. , of SC, Pres. Rev. I. W. Stewart, Ala. Vice Pres., and Rev. H. L. Crumley. Atlanta Sec.

Bruce Regis ter of the Treasury, “He enjoyed the reputation of being one of the most polite men in Washing ton . Hi’ great success was made by not trying to turn h’mself into a white man, but a’ways remem bering that he was a negro Hh never intruded him e f where he wasn't wanted. ” o o o If arybody should ask you.'lhe eagle first appeared on the seal of United States in a design sunrnit t.rd to Congnss by William Bar ton, of Philadelphia, in 1782. The device was adopted June 20th of i hat year. o o o Mr. William Jenninga Bryan paid a high tribute to Gen. Fitz hugh Lee in one of his recent speeches. Among other things he said: “Fitzhugh Lee has diechar ged his dutii s with such courage., such prudence, and such patrio tism that you cannot find one man in all the Northland who would suggest hit. removal.” o o o The Memphis Commercial-Ap peal saye: ’’That Georgia judge who broke a bottle over she brow of an Atlanta editor must have been laboring under the impresion 'hat he was launching a battle ship.” o o o The Atlanta Journal is of the opinion that Mr. Catidler's chances wou’d have been better had the primary been set for a month latter, As the Journal is an avowed ant -Candler organ, it is more than passing strange that it is not p eased with the arrange ment —Macon News. o o o Judge Atkinson should bear in mind that whom the gods would lestroylhey first make mad. o o o El iz iMo re, a quadroon girl o 1 Lexington, Ky., s 17 year old and veighs 537 pounds.

The use of the surgeon’s knife is be coming so general, resulting fatally in such a large number of cases, as to occasion general alarm. Mr. William Walpole, of Walshtown, South Dakota, writes; “About three years ago, there came under ] cry left eye a little blotch about the /"* %. It grew rapidly,and fl yg shooting pains ran K 3 * n every direction. W A~m I became alarmed » \ and consulted a good doctor, who zljs pronounced it can- an< l Ba *d that it ■• J nust be cut out. / This I would not ’’lk -A J consent to, having xS' little faith in the indiscriminate use of the knife. Read ing of the many cures made by S. S. S., I determined to give that medicine a trial, and after I had taken it a few days, the cancer became irritated and began to discharge. This after awhile ceased, leaving a small scab, which finally dropped off, and only a healthy little scar remained to mark the place where the destroyer had held full sway. A Real Blood Remedy. Cancer is in the blood and it is folly toexpect an operation to cure it. 5.5.3.
