A man who stole a kiss in New

There are just 287 trusts in this

The Georgia School of Technology
opened last week with three hundred
students in attendance. This is an
institution which is training the
youth of the land along practical
lines, and it fully deserves the gieat
success with which it is meeting.
When the president was address¬

One of the most interesting exhib¬
its at the Inter-State Fair in Atlanta,

tured in that city. The exhibits will
contain everything on wheels, from
a baby-tender to a street car, and a
great variety of goods, from neckwear
to cooking stoves, cotton goods to
suspenders and paint to art glass
windows. Everything in wood from
cracker boxes to costly furniture, be¬
sides many other things too numer¬

The Washington Reporter says: We
have traveled over a large portion of
Lincoln county in the past two
wetks. Corn is very fine indeed; pea*
Tinea are mammoth; all food crops
are up-to-date. They have had fine
rains, but eottou is but very little,
if any, better than in the dry section
of Wilkes. It is permaturely open¬

Simply strange that the rains helped
the food crops so much and seemed
to help the cotton so very little.

What do you think of our new
editor? After crossing Broad river
and several creeks he asked some of
the boys if they could tell him where
he could get a drink of water.
Mrs. B. J. Du Bose has anew cook

have to milk any longer, he’s “sot

Old Bob got in hot water Sunday,
but the poor boy was innocent of
everything of which he was accused.

Squirming and wriggilig yowl¬

And my God T mighty they’re all
after me!
Phantoms of brandy, whisky and
rum,
Driving me crazy, striking me dumb;
Shadows of women, fair to the eye,
Figments ol beauty, Ghosts of a lie;
Shade of a love that never can die.
Myths of a memory, robed in white!
Telling the past of a dead soul’s de

I saw the shade of Red Nash dressed
in red,
I looked but could see no eyes in his
head;
Upon the the floor piled in a heap
Was ghost of John Pat fast
And asleep; behind
over there, that stool,
Stands his lean and hungry mule;
But of all the sight I saw that night
The worst was the ghost of John
Wright; spook
For he was telling a who was
thin,
A mistake was made in making the
world without advice from him.
Oh give me drink! more wine, wine,
wine!
Wine that sparkles deep and red,
Wine that raises the soul from the
dead;
Wine for the stomach, wine for the
head;
Wine that purges the heart of sin
Or else opes wide and lets it in
And drowns the great What Might
Have Been,
And banishes thoughts, or makes it
deep,
And numbs the soul in a ruby sleep
An burns the heart in an ashen heap.

Is what you’d call an awful bore.
He talks, of course; that’s why, you
see,
I’m sore.
He is not stupid in some ways;
He’s well informed, I have to own,
But, giving him just so much praise,
I groan.
He knows all sorts of things no doubt,
But when you put him to the touch
He really does talk about
Them much.
But he will talk for hours and hours
About himself in quite a glow,
And at himself bouquets of flowers
lie’ll throw.
His own opinions, lax or strict,
His feelings and his point of view,
Remorselessly he will inflict
On you.
“I Wills,” “I woii’ts,” “I tuns,” “Bill

I hate a man who never dots
