I Brunswick Advertiser: His ca reer was a brilliant one, and has been prominently sustained in our political history since. In his first 'campaign the writer was his strong supporter ami found in him all the nobleness of a grand na ture. Those who knew him best will feel the keenest sorrow in his 1 sudden ilealh. Augusta Chronicle: Genual Young was one of the best known m> n in Georgia. He was chival.ic m temperament, and a reckless tighter on the field of battle. In both of Mr. Cleveland's admin istrations he filled responsible diplomatic positior, and repre sented his country with .dignity I and ability. Augusta Herald: In General Young's diplomatic career lie was able ami conservative and stood high in the esteem of the presi dent. His was a life devoted, in I peace and war. to his country, i Macon News: General Young [ was a courteous and chivalrous gentleman, a true Georgian and democrat, a faithful friend and a man of undaunted courage. The gavel which Chairman Ha”, rity used in opening the Na tional Democratic Convention to day has a history, says the Bos ton Post, which dates back to the Pharaohs. The head of the gavel is J carved from a piece of oak whioh formed a part of old Fort Dear born. The handle is also of oak, but from a tree which was grow ing on the present site of Chicago 7000 years ago. This tree was one of a primeval f ores f , covered by the debris of centuries and hidden until a few months ago, when ex cavations at Sheffield avenue brought the great trunk to light. Tiius the oaks of two periods cen turies apart have been levied upon for the gavel. Professor Upham of the-M innesota Historical Society, vouches fur the age of the tree from which the handle was made It is now charged that Hobart, the tail of the republican ticket, was once a bolter from the republi can party When Ben Butler ran for the presidency on an indepen dent ticket, Hobart bolted the re publican party- to support him, and put up lets of the money that went to pay the Butler campaign expenses. P will be remembered that Blaine, the idol of the repub lican party, now that he cannot be a candidate again, was the re publican nominee for the presi dency in that campaign. It seems that Hobart is possessed of a rec ord after al I.—Marietta Journal. A correspondent asks: How big is the German Empire. Please compare i t with something at home.” It is a little larger than the states of Nor'h Carolina. South Caroli a, Georgia and Floridr. The Empire contains i n round numbers 210,000 square milss. while the states named conta n 201,000 square miles. It is not nearly as big as Texas, which con tains 2 65,780 square miles. The population of the German Empire is about 50,000,000. Ihe late James Emerson, of Williamsett, inventor of the car heating system, was a pronounced ' Spiritualist and claimed to have received many messages from the spirit world. He was the author of a curious book on hydrody namics. in which, along with mechanical problems, he discuss ed divorce, marriage aud religion . One chapter advises lawyers that 'their work is of little use to the world. j. _ The insistence of the majority 1 of the National Commiitee on Senator Hill for temporary Chair man is reminiscent of the curious Vinnagaroon school teacher “who , whistled for the grizzly—and the ’ i grizzly come. ” _■ | It is to be hoped that Colonel ' Fellows took a tear-jug to Chicago with him.

THE HUS l LdR OF ROMF FRIDAY JULY 1 O 1896 ■A BUSINESS QI'ICKI.Y BIII.T. | A dealer tells the New York- Times that there are about -1.000,- 000 bicycle riders in this country, and that ‘‘the wheels uow- ridden represent #805,000,000; the cloth ing of the riders, #10,000.000; and sundries and repairs, $20,000,000.” Ail this vast business has been built up in a few years, and large ly by advertising. Gs course, tl.e whe M l would have made its way anyhow. But i” got its scorching pace from publicity; and that in fluence, in quickening coinputi lion, has made the bicycle users no less than the bicytle builder? largely its debtors. Ihe colored bother did not get so much as he hoped lor in St. Louis. But watermelons and roast ing ears are ripe, and cotton-pick ing time is coming. Mr Teller hasn t sat quite long enough on the ‘Mourners’ Bench” in the Democratic meeting house to entitle him to a cushioned seat in the “Amen Corner,’’ 1 . ■.. -j-... »■ One of the prettiest incidents of the recent Confederate Veterans reuion was when Gen, J.

S’ ' ' . .fc 0111* Stomach, sometimes ca'.ird waterbrash, and burning pain, distress, nausea, dyspepsia, are cured by Hood's Sarsa parilla. This it accomplishes because with its wonderful power as a blood purifier, Hood's Sarsaparilla gently tones and strengthens the stomach and digestive organs, invigorates ‘he liver, creates an appetite, gives refreshing sleep, aad raises the health tone. In cases of dyspepsia and indigestion it seems to have a magic touch.” “ For over 12 years I suffered from sour Stomach with severe pains across my shoulders, and great distress. I had violent nausea which would leave me very weak and faint, difficult to get my breath. These spells came oftener and more severe. 1 did not receive any lasting benefit from physicians, but found such happy effects from a trial of Hood’s Sarsaparilla, that I took several bottles and mean to always keep it in the house. I am now able to do all my own work, which for six years I have been unable to do. My husband and son have also been greatly bene fited by Hood’s Sarsaparilla—for pains in the back, and after the grip. I gladly recommend this grand blood medicine.” Mrs. Peter Bubby, Leominster, Mass. Hood’s Sarsaparilla Is the One True Blood Purifier.

Our towns would be bare indeed if all public improvements were really paid for at the expense of the public treasury, says the New York World. Wherever a hand somely improved town is seen it is sure to be found that the prin cipal improvements are the result of active work by such voluntary organizations as the Brooklyn Tree-Planting and Fountain So ciety, or as the many town and village improvement societies which are doing so much to make life worth living in* America. A new American town is per haps the worst possible deface ment cf the landscape, but when bare lots and stiff, angular build ings have given place to greenward to tree-fringed avenues, to hand somely decorated library and church buildings, to grass plots and flower-beds around the rail road stations, to small parks and screens of shrubbery to cover bare spots und shut oil unwelcome sights, then we h”.ve a most valua ble lesson of the benefits of a gov ernmental system which helps the people by leaving them free to help themselves. No other coun try has hail such opportunities for free co-operation, and no otlur country has so improved them. Found In A Well Anniston, Ala., J'uly 10 —Tom Sides, an employe of the Anniston Pipe an'l Foundry Company, has been mis-’iig since monday night and his dead body was found this mori i‘‘g in an uncovered well near his home in the western portion of the city. As he had been drinking and’ a bottle of whisky was found in the well with him, it is believed that while drunk he walked by the well and fell in. He leaves a wife and four small children. Uncle Sam Kicks. Chicago, July 10. —Railroad companies no longer may carry their business letters over tneir own roads without paying postage to the government. An order has been received from Postmaster General Wilsuu by Maj . Stewart and Postmaster Hesing insisting upon the enforcement of the pos tal laws against railways carrying their own letters. An exception is made io favor of letters that have to do with the business of the train carrying them. Bu‘ all letters to station agents and officials are forbidden to be carried without postage, and the inspectors are directed to enforce the law. The railroads however, will not be required to mail their letters as ordinary citizensand corporations. They will be supplied by the gov ernment with specially stamped envelopes which they must cancel on delivery’ to the trainman. The express companies have been using such envelopes for some years.
