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 mell, the Fourth ward brick yard 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. o o o M hat promised to be a most in teresting game of hall was broken up by rain yesterday afternoon.

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. Statesboro Star JANUSCHEK VS POLLARD. The Actress Does not wish Made line to go on the Stage. 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 ed with disgust the success of prize fighters, of bruisers and of women who have gained notoriety through intrigues, which have been used as capital to increase their drawing value to the public. I have said nothing. 1 have seen it as r i astonished spectator. The .time has come when some ore must speak and if no one else will, I w‘ ‘I should like very much • have this woman hissed off th® stage sbe ever comes to New York, but it would bemore effective if she were prevented from getting time at a New York theatre. I shall certainly endeavor to dissuade any reputable actress from supporting her. lam going to enlist the service of the Professional Woman's League. My sii-tir there will join me. I believe Every tiue woman synipi.tlnzed witn i b's umotunate girl, but her action in singing a stage will most assuredly forfeit the sympathy of the profe a siou.
