The next Georgia Senate will

Gross exception.
And now we are told that it
takes dry information to satisfy
a thirst for learning.
Speaking of autumn, tho first
fall we read of was Adam’s —and
the fig leaf dropped.

Strange, though from the
news reports it seems to be a
fact, that Major Marchand in

P Fashoda, found sal-vation.
WHAT ALE SQUAW MEN?
For the information of ihe
reader we will explain that, a
squaw man is a white man who
marries an Indian maiden to
enjoy the privilege of settling
upon the property awarded her
by the government and also all
the rights of citizenship.
There are said to be twenty
thousand of this class in the In
dian Territory, whose inhabi
tants are, per capita, among the
richest people in the world.
But alas, the day of the squaw
man is over ; he must go, Hy the
coop, vacate the rance.
This painful result has been
reached by the action of the
Dawes commission, in session
at Ardmore, I. T.
The property of the squaws is
in land and funds held by the
United States government, and
so if the squaw men of the Ter
ritority are to be driven out
they will be at a distant and
distressing disadvantage as
compared with the sqaw men
who come over from Europe
and marry wives in New York
and then go buck home with
wives, property and all.—New
Orleans States.
Gov. Tanner, of Illinois, is
said to have his eye on the Unit
ed States senate. Th it’s noth

lightly of the dead.

that though cotton is cheaper
than ever before, the Fall River

cotton than on cotton at f cents

Thankful words written by
Mrs. Ada E. Hart, Groton 8. D.
“Was taken with a bad cold
which settled on my lungs;
cough set in and finally termi
nated in Consumption. Four
doctors gave me up, saying I
could not live but a short time.
I gave myself up to my Savior,
determined if I would not stay
with my friends on earth, I
would meet my absent onee
above. My husband was advic
ed to get Dr. King's Now Dis
covery for Consumption, Coughs
and Colds. I gave it a trial, took
in all eight bottles. It has cured
me, and thank Uod I am saved
and now a well and healthy
woman.” Trial bottles free at
