BARNES OF HtrllMoND. EDITORIAL NOTES. The boom of a human skeleton were dug up in the streets of Atlanta laat week. The most popular fellow for the girl of the period, is the one that aita in the shade and criticitu s those that labor arduously for their daily bread. Congresa has adjourned, and the public crib will now have a little rest; but we rather think that the average Congressman needs the rest more than the crib. (’apt. F. Elgeworth Evo, of Eu- ! tmnks, in this county, has been ap-| ja,inted by the Governor as a dole gate to the Farmers' Congress which convenes at Minneapolis, Minn., on the 25 th in st. Cutting, a Texas editor, has been brought to trial and convicted of violating the laws of Mexico. It is feared by some that this may cause a war between Mexico and the United Stales It is our desire that the mat ter bo adjusted without bloodshed. Tolxi Jackson, the Cartersville dyna miter, who on January 22nd, 1886, ' placed a largo dynamite bomb on the front porch of the residence of Judge Aaron Collins of that city, was tried in Bartow Huperior Court on last Saturday and found guilty of the charge, and was sentenced to the Georgia penitentiary for a term of ten years. Frank Humphries, charged with killing Misses Carrie Raines and Ella Humphries in Baldwin county on the fourth of last March, was tried in Baldwin Superior Court on lust Fri day and was found guilty of the mur tier of these young ladies. Judge Thoa. G. Lawson pawed sentence on him to lie hanged the 24th day of September. It is stated that a very prominent minister of Atlanta, has injured him ■elf very much in that city for being Buch an ardent supporter of the pro hibition movement. We say this much, if a man advocates a measure and doos not stick to it in and tinder all circumstances, wo doubt his sin cerity. Wo trust this Atlanta em bassador will continue to wage war agaiuat the terrible demon that has blighted and darkened the homes of ■o many happy families. The State Ag ricultural Society met in Cartersville on Tuesday. (Juite a large delegation of farmers from all parts of the State were in at tendance, and manifested n very deep interest in the meeting. In the gath ering together of the “horny handed ■on* of ted," each can exchange views on fanning that will doubtless prove beneficial. We think the diversified plan of farming should claim the at tention of tins society. In our opin ion diversified farming is the best mid only salvation for our impoverishud laud. The all cotton system lias brought utter ruin to our country. IL9JE I! A STIIKR LHD Wbw» Christian tbmd. But W t» Help. The following touching and pathetic article from the Atlanta Constitution, is worthy of peruaal mid should go home to the heart of every one How can people iu this Christian land, who poaatiaN a drop of the milk of human kiudneaa in their breast, let suffering humanity go on unheaded or un noticed. Christian people wake up to a sense of your duty and lend a helping band to the weak and lowly upon the ragged path of life: Day before yeater lava man of ap j-areutly twenty-fix i < i thirty npj <ar- ■ ed in the editorial room of The Con stitution: i “I am in search of work,” said he. "I am n graduate of Trinity college, Dublin, of which I was afterward sizar. I came to this country to get employment ns n teiclier. I have been unsuccessful. I have reached Atlanta, ami urn without money, but oh, so m.xious to work. Twelve, fifteen or eighteen hours a day would J work al. uny thing mi honest man could do.” The editor to whom Mr. Stewart, fur such was his name, spoke, gave him such information as was nt hand, ami the man departed, with profusion of thunks. Last night just nt dusk, the following note was passed in to the editor: I am absolutely starving and can but await the iuevitebl result. Your obedient, T. ('. Stkweht, Sizar T. C. D. There is no use in saying that the editcr’s heart Was stirred. The idea of a man awaiting death because of the want of something to cut in a I hind of plenty ami n laud of Christian homes was enough to stir the most callous heart The editor found Mr. Stewart in the hallway of the fifth story of the budding. Mr. Stewart arose, looked out of the window upon till) crowded street below. Then ; throwing his hand to his forehead, he exclaimed: “Oh, that I could close Iny eyes i upon this scene for the last time; that (iod would relieve me from this terrible temptation.’’ As Mr. Stewart closed his eyes it was easy to divine his thoughts. That i instant his heart was once more in that little luimlet in the green isle, where father, mother, brother, sister, unconscious of the absent one’s strait, are chatting merrily. Ho hiiusell | stood i urrounded by humanity, and ■ yet aloof for all; willing for work that ■ honest hands might do, and yet Christians pass him by without a thought. In a moment the man was on his knees. For five minutes ho prayed with a fervor born of necessity that . God would remove tho terrible temp- , tation from his heart. Ho then arose more calm than before, but yet fearfully nervous. The editor then called up telephone j number 776, belonging to De-Loach i A Bro. Tho story was soon told, ami Mr, ' DeLoach said: “We can all do good if wo only look around for it to do. Semi him to me m the morning and 1 will do what 1 can for him ” With these assuring words, the editor brought some joy to the poor mini’s heart, besides adding something more substantial. Christian men of Atlanta, here is a chance for some of you to prove your I sincerity. —There is no medicine that gives ; such happy results in fretful teetli i ing children as Pitt’s Carminative, lhe ’ teeming testimony of thousands of I mothers is a sufficient guarantee Your , druggists have it for sale. ’ CONTINUATION OJ THE At ilt STA LETTEIt, Judge Lynch got in with his hemp ! last Wednesday night. About a week 1 ago, a rape was committed upon the person of a little seven year old daughter of one of tho most respected citizens of this county, by one Henry Davis, a colored boy about eighteen years of age. The boy threatened to kill the little girl if she told of it. He was arrested by Constable Calvan Sengo, ut Perkins junction, on the I Central railroad on a warrant issued by Judge Eve. At Meßeali he was taken , from tho officer by a crowd of masked i men and riddled with bullets. Con-j ductor Charles A. Baston. attempted to prevent them from doing so, but they put pistols to his head ami told him not to interfere or they would blow out his brains. Tho action of the lynchers, while not exactly com mended, is not regretted. Tho Coro ner returned his verdict in accordance with the facts, death at tho bands of unknown parties.
