Doing Immense Damage in West Tennessee. Huntingdon, Tenu , August 21. Fine raiu« throughout June and July brought corn anti cotton into the best condition known in West Tennessee in years. But now legions of grass hoppers are appearing in some locali ties and are completely deviating th e fields. Their voracity is not satisfied un til they have devoured even the cob and stalk of voting corn and have stripped the cotton stalk of its foliage squares and bark, Farmers here in C rroll and Weak ly counties are spending their best energies hi driving them into straw pits and burning them. One man, in bis dessperation. drove ahorde of th pests into bis barn and then fired it to eave his growing crops These raidings Acrydians are to be found in every of developmer t, from the wingless baby hopper to the adult as large as a humming bird, all ravaging the fields together. Un less they are successfully me* soc n immense damage will be sustained in the West Tennessee counties. Advsce T. / J JHt As Russell Sage The gres-.t financier, gives the fnlkw ing goal advice to boys, which parents might also read with profit: “ Boys, go to school as long as you can, and remember every hour spent in study in your youth will be worth money to you in after life. Read good books; make yourself acquainted with history; study the progress of nations and the ■careers ot men who have made nations graat. “ Study religion, science, statecraft and history. Learn to read intelligently, so that you can turn to practical use in after life the reading ■of your youth. Be sure you begin right. Do not waste time in reading ■trashy boots.” Mr. Sage further says: “ The boy who is wanted in the business word of today must be educated. If his parents cannot afford to give him a college or a high school eduucaiion he must learn to study ■without the aid of a teacher, in the early mornings before business begins, and In the evenings .after business hours. It can no longer be truthfully said that an education is out of any one’s reach.” This is the advke of a man who Is one of the most censpicuous business successes of our time, and who has amassed one of the largest fortunes in America. It cannot possibly be charged that he is in .the pay of THE ATLANTA CONSTJWTJON, and yet these words given as the conviction of i life of unusual observation and experience advises as strongly as words can that you hasten to accept the offer of The Constitution, and secure this greatest of popular educators, The Encyclopaedia Britannica. The edition offered by The Constitution fills every requirement m Mr. Sage’s recipe for success, ft is the only edition that is up to date. Who will be without these books now, when Ten Cents a day wifi secure them ?

TUESDAY EVENING AUGUST. 21 1894. “CZAR” WATSON Barns Stormsrs are After his Scalp THE DALTON ECONOMIST A Rank Poculist Sheet is Camo ing on the Trail of the $56 a Week Editor of the Populistic Daily of Atlanta The people of Tom Watson's own party are getting dead on to him and the-’ a r e after Tommie’s seal p. They finally have found out he is a dictator of the rule or ruin or der, and he is being accused of breaking up rhe Third Party, and working it for hisown selfish ends L, P Barnes, a leading Third Party man, ami editor ot The Dal ton Econmist, i strong Party paper, is out in the following card •‘to the people of Georgia,” in which he bitterly denounces Tom Watson. “It is not necessary that the ed tor of this paper should assure the people of this State that he is a Populist and that he represents true Jeffersonian and People’s Par ty doctrine. have proven my faith by my works and I write this card to warn the Populist party of this State of the impending dan gers that confront it. “We have fought trusts, combi nations, usurpations, monopoly and one-man power and rmgs of every description, and I believe in true Jeffersonian Democracy, but when I see a man arrogating to himself rhe right of a dictator in such away and in such an alarming extent that the Czar of Russia would be ashamed and tremble to do, or the greatest King of the strongest monarchy of the world would refrain from doing, I think it is lime to warn my people of the trouble that is just ahead. ■ “The Populist party, as I under* stand it, does not belong to any one BMtn in Georgia or elsewhere. Let me warn you against follow ing the wild schemes of the man that L dictating the policy of our party in this State. “He is a dangerous leader.and if we foB«w him, we can only hope at last to yap the reward which will he bitter remorse and woe. ‘ z Let us as true and tried Popu. list s —a party composed of the peo ple—the whole people—work in harmony together as a party, and not be side-tracked by this lord of lords, the Grand Mogul—who is throwing such a light in front by his tremendous brain that it is impossible to see the party at all. We do not want a dictator. Har mony is the great thing with us. “One-half of the Third Party members will leave it and go back to the Democratic or Republican party before they will submit to Watson’s dietorial methods. He has relegated the old-timers to the rear and allied himself with new recruits for spoils. He has ignored the white labor of the State, and they will not vote with us if Wat son is to be a dictator longer.” Editor Barues goes on to call Mr Watsou, to account for the money subscribed to furnish forth hie newspaper, which paper, he says, “consists of a lead pencil and some paper to write abuse on.’’“Where” he asks,“is the SIU,OOO, the $20,000 or the $50,000.” Echo answers, “Where?” And then he asks this question :*‘lt is a big I and a little u. Is he not using it to boom him self for Congress in the Tenth? Can such methods further the Pop nlistic movement?” He co icludes by saying that the Populists will not submit to Wat son’s ru'e or ruin policy. He says Watson has tried to boss the party from the first, and that he is bos sing it now, and says emphatical ly that Watson knows his charges aie facts, and that they are true. The article has created a great sensation. TREED THE HON It has Been Trailed to its lair in the Jungle ROME MASONS?

Butter Like Coal Tar From a Bov ine Freak. Ed Marsh of Meneral township comes to the front with a story that is both wonderful and unique hut true in every detail About live weeks ago a Durham Alderny cow aged 2 years gave birth to a calf and they began to milk the cow but were tbunder strdek when they discovered its milk was biack. The calf however thrived upon the milk and last week Mrs. Marsh having overcome her prejudices decided to try some of the mflk, says the Pitisburg Dispatch. It tasted the same as other milk only it was much richer and by leaving a crock of it set for four hours nearly two inches of cream a little lighter in color than the milk would rise on top. Two gal lons of the cream were churned and four pounds of butter were se cured. The butter was examined by a creamist who pronounced it per fect butter except in color aud gave the reason for the color some thing yet unknown to science in the blood of the animal. The butter much resembles coal tar aud has a delicious tast. Peo ple are coming from far and near to see the freak and Mr. has been offered big sums, of money for the cow. He has hope that he can raise some more stock of the same kink. A roll of butter will be shortly seut to this city and placed on exhibition The milk makes fairly good ink aud the cream might be used for printers ink.
