HURRAH FOR GEORGIA
A miiw MINISTER niRCOHSRS AN
KMBCTRIC OR GALVANIC SHAFT ON
HIS FARM —ITS WONDEKFL'E
POWE It*.
Atlanta Journal: Hearing so
much of the electric shaft on the
farm of Rev. A. L. Hillman
Taliaferro county, Georgia, I
came down to see for myself this
wonderful freak of nature. As
already stated, Mr. Hillman
accidently discovered the healing
properties of the shaft while dig
ging for an alum spring. Since
then Mr. Hillman and a good
many others have been cured of
lheumatism, some of the cases
being very severe ones. I saw
several while here under treat
ment. One of the cases I will
mention.
Annie Davis, of Washington,
Wilkes county, was taken out <>l
bed and brought here. She bad
a tearful case of intlamatory rlicu
matisin ; so fearful was its effects
she became spotted, and her
friends thought she would die on
the road. She said Mr. Hill gave
her morphine and different opiates
and nothing induced sleep or rest.
The first night sho came and drank
the waler she rested better and
slept more than she bail for weeks.
She said she iclt better in the
shaft than anywhere else. She
improved rapidly, can now walk
about ami is nearly well, ami will
in a few days return home a well
woman. She could scarcely cat
or digest a mouthful when she
eatne. The wait r gave her a
splendid appetite ami she can now
eat and drink what she pleases. 1
1 saw several other cases cured
and being cured that seemed
almost too miraculous to believe.
1 hare been a sufferer from nervous
indigestion for yens, and can
gladly eay that 1 have been more
beuetitled from this wonderful
shaft ni*d water th in from anything
else. Il is a gram) remedy for the
nerves ami kidneys. Ihe shaft is
nicely housed and the Ncenry
around is beautiful and is a grand
location for a resort. Mr. llill-
Wiui will build a hotel mar it, and
is outin' lookout for an entepris
ing hotel man to take charge ol
it.
Afore anon. An. anti an.
Sharon, Ga, Nov 13.
P. S—There were 2'32 visitors
nt the shaft to-day, many from
the city. One gentleman said he
would give Mr. Hillman SIB,OOO
for the shaft; others tadmitted
much higher. Ono great feature
of the shall is that patients who
arc not able to sit up elsewhere
can sit up there, being so much
strengthened by the electricity in
the shaft.

A REMARKABLE OCCURRENCE.
Early County News: 1). I>.
Batchelor, of the 29th district,
was in our office a few days since
and told us of a remarkable oc
currence that happened to him
while digging a well on the old
Mills place, some ten or eleven
miles below Blakely. Ai t going
down some distance into the earth
he dug into a lar; lime sink
which was so deep and dark that
he could not tell anything about
where he was, so he had himself
dtawn up from the well aid
ob.ained a lantern and matches.
He was then lowered into the
well again and commenced ex
( ploring. About thirty-five yards,
in a westerly direction, he came to
a large stream running northwest.
As he leaned foi ward to gaze into
its watery depths, a piece of dirt
fell from overhead and knocked
his lint, which wi s a straw one.
into the water, and he was unable
Ito get it out. Four days after he
leiirhed that a straw hat had been
found in the river, at the mouth of
Sowhutchee creek, ten miles be
low where his adventure oc< urred.
Upon learning this he went down
where the bat was foiimland it was
his hat that he had lost in the sub
terranean stream. Dan says that
he don’t ask the public to believe
bis story without confirmation, but
refers them to Mr. R. Houston,foi
| whom he was digging the well.

HOW TO GAUGE A TOWN-
We have seen nothing truer than
this article from the Richmond
Whig, on “Newspapers as an
index of a city's progress
It is a true bill. Read it.
“ When we glance over the col
umns of a newspaper from a city
which we have never seen, and see
its advertising columns filled with
fresh and attractive advertisements
lot furnaces, foundries, machine
' shops, manufa turing establish
ments, wholesale and retail stores,
hotels, etc., we immediately say
Ito ourselves, if we do not say it i
aloud That must be a very live- j
i ly town and business must be in a!
| very nourishing condition there.
Moreover its inhabitants must I e
an enterprising progressive, go
ahead people. That is no doubt
a good place to live’and if we!
happen to bo thinking about
changing our location, our minds
arc at once directed to that city
as a desirable place to locale
Indications of thrift and prosperity
make a favorable impression upon
every one, and in settling down to
business every thrifty enterprising
man is attracted to a community
where those character iatics
predominate."

TWO QUESTIONS lOR MR.
GEOKG E.
New Turk World: Here are I
two questions which wo should!
like the supporters of Mr. George’s
land theory to sonsider:
First—ls “the value which at
taches to the surface of the earth
by reason of the growth of popu
lation belongs to society at lar<’c,”
as they utlirm, does not society at !
large owe compensation to thos<
whose land suffers a deci ease in !
value by a loss <>f population ?
Second—ls “society :.t larze, ’;
represented by the Go\ erntn -nt.
sells its natual right t > the soil foi
f 1.25 an acre to a poor but
industrious settler as the greato’l
part ot the Western lands have
been sold—mid that settler, after
working hard tor twenty years,
mole or less, finds that the
“growth of population” has ovei-!
taken him and enhanced the value
of his purchase, would it lie fair
for “society at large ’ to insist
upon gobbling up his protits from
the fee which it conveyed to him
absolutely ?
