A KLUSTER OF
BULLS EYE SHOTS.
y r . Bull’s Eve Man :
Xow that the country is Hooded
wilh large lucious water-melons
!in d every body and the white folks
are fearing to the fullest of full
ness permit me to suggest that
winter time is coming and ere “the
frost is on the pumpkin the melon
food will be with us only as ‘‘the
flowers that bloom in the spring”
—unless we take some step to have
it different. Therefore 1 ask ol you
that you give space for the follow
ing excellent receipt for preserving
water melon rinds:
*•*
Pare off outside rind, cut in
pieces two inches long, weigh
throw into cold water, skim out,
add a heaping tea-spoon each of
salt and pulverized alum to two
gallon* of rinds, let stand until
salt and alum dissolve, fill the
kettle with cold water and place
on top of sfove where it will slow
ly come to boiling point, covering
with a large plate so as to keep
rinds under water; boil until they
can be easily pierced with a fork,
drain them from the water and
put into a syurp previously pre
pared as follows: Bruise and tie in
a muslin bag four ounces of ginger
root and boil into two or three
pints of water until it is strongly
flavored.
* *
«
At the same time boil in a little
water until tender, in another pan
three or four sliced lemons, make
a syurp of the sugar and the water
in which the lemons and ginger
root were boiled, add the rinds and
slice of lemon to this and boil
slowly half or three quarters of an
hour. Citron may be prepared in
the same way, by paring, coring
and slicing, or cutting into fanci
ful shapes with tin cutters made
for the purpose. In making the
water melon preserved be careful
to leave none of the red.

Editor Nix "Says:
The third party is hard down
on the rotton parties. They pro
pose to quit them and take up
Zack Hargrove, Dr. Felton and
others of like stripe and make a
pure party. Well now ain’t that
purity? Let Judge Maddox take a
back seat and give these the purest
of all the pure an open field.

On yesterday Mr. George Tram

man and practical mason and Mr.
T. Berry Broach, the contracting
Carpenter, closed a contract with
Col. W P. Whitmore and will
erect him a $1,500 cottage in the
grove in the forks of the Calhoun
and Kingston roads about one mi’e
from North Rome. The location
•is a beautiful one and it is need
less to say that the pretty designs
will be worked out to perfection
by the clever contractors.

ft GENUINE STAMPEDE.
I Hines’ Utt raices Against Negroes
Return to Torment Him. 1
I From all outward appearances
there is a genuine stampede in th*
ranks of the Populism party iu this
country. Thein is a wild effort on to
stem the tide of ®ur exposure of
Hines’ nfgri -hating record and that
famous M hitfield shop meeting.
Some of the boys want to deny the
wiioH thing straight out, but others,
who are better politicians, any this
I will not do; we nmstpoHh the whole
thing some way—sorter explain it,
you know and twist it so as to make
it look decent if possible.
Several couu i s if war have
bem held, and all day Sunday the
boys were on a move trying to get up
testimonials to sorter explain that
Hines was only joking when he said
that a negro was a bi ute and a negro
woman a strumpet.
The colored people are in open re
volt of the Populist party, and some
thing has got to be done to sorter fix
the things up so as to make the col
ored people believe it was not as bad
as the eighteen citizens of Bulloch
ovnty have sworn it is.
The best element of the white Pop
ulists are demanding that the Whit
field shop midnight mog® 1 caucus be
cleared up, or they will bolt, and the
colored people demand that Hines
clear himself of the charges against
him and qis negro-hating record, or
they w'l bolt (and the most of them
in this county know it, and have
done bolted.)
So you may look out for a heavy
coat of whitewash in this weeks Ban
ner, as the Populists are striving
night and day, Sunday included, try
ing to work out of the hole, the
who’e cro«d have stumbled into.
We shad see what we shall see.

JANUSCHEK VS POLLARD.
The Actress Does not wish Made

Ne 1 ' York, August 25.—Mme.
Januschek, the tragedienne, does
not approve of Miss Madeline Pol
lard’s stage plans. “My indigna
tion,” said she today, “is uncon
trolable as I think of it.
The announcement that Miss
Pollard is going on the stage is an
insult to the womanhood of our
profession. I want to denounce the
men who have charge of her toi r
and who dignify themselves by the
name of managers.
Their action is simply a dastard
ly affront to the drama. What is
the stage coming to? I have watch

who have gained notoriety through
intrigues, which have been used as
capital to increase their drawing
value to the public. I have said
nothing.

Announcement
' TO THE PEOPLE
of GEORGIA
AND OF THE SOUTH EAST |
THE ATLANTA CONSTITUTION maksa an announcement ot ainrtt than ordinary Inter-,
eat. By special a-ran;enient with the publishers of that greatest ot all reference Hbrarles, The Eocy-,
clopa>dia Britannica, ninth (latest) edition, we are enabled for a short time to place this King of Books
Within easy reach of every reader. This edition Is bound In
2§ ROYAL OCTAVO VOLUMES
And Is the only complete and unabridged edition of this great work In existence revised Ito date. That
some sort ot an E icyclopmdia is a necessity, all must acknowledge. That the Great Britannica Is the
very best Encycloptedia. none will deny. Only Its great cost—Sin; for the Scribner Edition. Saoo for i
the Edinburgh Edition—has prevented Its purchase heretofore. At these prices none but the rich could
afford to own it. We offer for a limited time to the readers of The CONSTITUTION an edition superior
even to the costly Edinburgh Edition at the unheard of Introductory rate of
TEN CENTS A DAV I
For this small outlay you can secure theoe a8 Royal octa-o volumes, complete and unabridged,
revised to date. The Britannica Itself needs no endorsement For 119 years It has stood the crowning
work of our English language, the noblest work In all literature, the one only adequate representative of
the advanced thought arfd scholarship of the world. It Is the only Encyclopedia In which each principal
subject is treated by an acknowledged authority upon that subject No other Encyclopedia has given
Ten Thousand Dollars tor a single aiticta. nor 81a Hundred Dollars a page for written matter. Tb>
fact that
Was expended In its preparation requiring the labor of a.OOO ot the world's greatest scholars, tells the
story of its exalted superiority Over 000 American authors were employed on American subjects and
American Instltu'loiia.
THE EDmON WE OFFER i
To our readers comprises many features worthy ot special mention.
1. A thorough equipment of new maps up to date, costing $30,000 to produce.
s. The American Copyrighted Articles, rewritten to date, by eminent American writers. In other
respects this Edition Is word for word, line for line, psge for page. Identical with the expensive Edin
burgh Edition, costing SB.OO per volume.
j. But the crowning feature of this Edition Is Its American Additions and Revisions, prepared under
the supervision of that widely known Encycloptedia Edito. , W. H. DEPUY. OH.. LL. D., assisted by
a corps of Trained writers, thoroughly revising the entire '.’ork to date.
Not only are all Scientific and Historical Subjects brought absolutely up to .rate, but a vast fund
of new information is added, relating to the material, social, industrial and educational progress of the
world, together with many thousand New Biographies not in the original Edition nor in any other Ency
clopaedia. ,
FOR A SHORT TIHE
This.elegant Reference Library will be offered tp subscribers of THE ATLANTA CONSTITU
TION at remarkably low Introductory prices, and ua terms so easy as to seem almost ludicrous.
There are four styles of binding, and all styles have double-hinged, flexible backs, sewed precisely
like am Oxford Teacher's Bible, so that they are durable and convenient!. Lt is an actual fact that
this book Is more strongly bound than the Edition which Is sold for SB.OO per volume.
Upon application we will send you description and prices of the various styles, and you nay select
any style of binding you choose and have the privilege of paying for It at the rate of 10 cents a day,
half the set being delivered to you at once: or. we will deliver the entire set of aS volumes on payment
of Js.oß.pes month. All charges paid by us to any railroad station in the United States.
