A ROMANTIC MARRIAGE.
A tnot-t nrrnntic merriHj;o oc
enrred at tlic Marion Hotel, At
lanta, Ga., Monday afterrnxin, the
parties to it being Mr. H. F. Hailey,
of Jaekwoii, Miss., and Mias Ilodgee,
of Virginia. Mr. I'ai'ty is some
what past fifty years of nge and the
bride about thirty.
The oonple met first during the
war, when Mis9 Hodges wf a baby.
It happened when the Northern
soldiers approached Jackson, Miss
The parents of M iss Hodges resided
there at that time and when the
grand ru&h to avoid the Yankees
was made, Mr. liniley, then a Con
federate soldier, secured a wagon
and movjd the Hedges family. In
the hurry and exci emcnt the little
girl was forgotten and she was not
indued until the family had gone
several miles.
Mr. Bailey volunteered to go
back and find her, which ho did.
Tiie child was found in the road,
near her home, crying. Mr. Pailey
carried her to her parents.
Soon after that Mr. Hodges moved
with his family to Virginia and Mr.
I'ailey taw them no more for thirty
years.
Last year his wile died and it oc
curred to him to look up his old
friends and see what had become ot
the littlo girl whom he had saved
from the invaders in the lung ago.
He went to Virginia and found her
teaching school. They corresponded
ana Btrreea to meet at tne juarton
Hotel during the fair and be mar
ried.
Saturday they met, as per arrange!
ment, and Monday afternoon Mr.
I5uiley secured a carriage and drove
around to I)r. McDenald's where
the ceremony was performed.
Extremes in Feeding-
The average fanner in earing for
bin stock often becomes over anx
ious. This leads to extremes in
feeding. Occasionally too much,
but ottener too little, is fed. The
ration is usually reduced on the
theory that it is economy to with
hold feed, allowing an animal to
subsist two day 8 on one day's ra
tions. The scanty feeder makes a
mistake in trusting to luck, hoping
to find a buyer who will uot appre
ciate tit'Ai or fat on horrcs or sheep,
and trusting in part to grazing to
makss up tne loss of fletdi on cattle
and hogs. Usually disappointment
follows either course. For a thrif
ty growth in animals a ration such
as will cause them to increase in
weight is necessary.
Animals receive heat an well ss
means of growth from the food
supplied them. Comfortable build
ing", and exercite reduce the amount
of food required lor warmth, but
not to the extent that grain feed
ing can be omitted. Heeline in
condition means loss of time and
a slow recovery as well as loss of
digestive strength. The impair
ment of digestive organs is fre
quently transmitted from parents
to olltipnng. Circumstances may
prevent right methods of feeding
when one would do better it possi
ble. The young animals, viz., pi;s
and lambs under lour months, aid
calves and colts under one year,
cannot be neglected without very
serious loss. If there must be a re
duction of feed it should apply only
to the older animals. Urauirc J ucld

Congressman Stroud Will Have to Move.
The last legislature gave a por
tion ot Ulmtlia'ii county to Ala
mance. The commissioner who
made the survey decided that a
strip of land in Chatham, from one
to two and a halt miles in width
belonged to Orange county, and the
c uiiniissioners ot Orange have re
tained Maj. Graham to take the
necessary legal steps to have the
territory transferred before the
legislature meets. The Chatham
Itecord, commenting on these pro
ceedings, say6: "if this territory
is taken from Chatham it will in
clude in Orange the present resi
dence of our Krpresentative in
Congress, Hon. YV. F. Strowd. I5ut
we hear that in view of this dan
ger, he will probably change his
residence, and move a few inihs
further south to the old Farrar
farm, known as llelle Voir. So
that evtn i, Chatham should lose
o much of her territory she may
not also lose her Congressman."

A DARK CRIME UNEARTHED.
An Unfaithful Wife Poisons Her Husband,
In the quiet valley of John's
River, a few miles, below Blowing
lkock, IS. (.-..noted for -its good ieo
pie and happy homes, a crime lias
been unearthed that has shocked
the nerves of the community.
Fog Greon, an humble, hard
working farmer, with his wife and
four children, lived in their humble
home, happy and contented. During
the absence of Green, who made
various trn to IJlowing Hock and
other places to sell his products,
Albert G. franklin invaded that
home and by his artifices gained the
affections of Greens wife. On
March 31st, Green returned home
about noon, and alter dinner went to
plowing in his held near the house.
Mrs. Green, with a show of great
affection, carried a glass of cider to
her htifcband while fie was at work,
which lie drank at her solicitation
In a few minutes the poison took
effect and he made an attempt to
get to the house, but fell on ascend
ing the stcj'B ot Ins homo. 11 is
w'fo and children asnistod him to
bed, where, in great agony, he died
during the night. A neighbor was
called in just before his death, and
witnessed the awful condition of the
sufferer.
The day after the funeral, Frank
lin moved to the house, which
caused considerable suspicion in the
neighborhood that Green had been
foully dealt with. To allay this
suspicion, six weeks after Green's
death, they were married.
There were so many suspicions
circumstances in connection with
the affair that the solicitor of the
district ordered an examination of
the body by tho coroner, assisted by
Dr. A. F. Houck. This was done
in June, the stomach and intestines
taken out and sealed in the presence
ot the coroner and jury. The analy
sis was made by an expert in Rich
mond, who found enough arsenic
in the stomach to kill at least two
or three men.
Franklin was placed in j-til under
the charge of illicit distilling, found
guilty, and would have been sent to
Albany by Judge Dick, if he had
not been informed of the more
serious charge. He was imprisoned
in the county jail under sentence of
the Federal Court, and released last
week. Immediately the sheriff in
formed him ol his arrest or the
murder of Green, as the result of
the chemical examination was
known only by a few persons.
Franklin was again placed in jail,
and the sheriff immediately arrested
the wife and brought her to jail.
It is now rumored that Franklin's
previous wife buffered and died in a
similar manlier only a few months
before.
Wonders of the Mississippi,
A writer in Longman's Magazine
says: The Mississippi has in the
course of ages transported from the
mountains and high land within the
drainage area sufficient material to
muke 4HJ,0M0 square milts ot new
land by filling up an estuary which
extended from it original outfall
to the Gulf ol Mexico for a length
of 50u miles and in width from So
to 4(1 miles. This river is stil! pour
ing solid matter into the Gulf, when
it is spread out into a tun-like shape
over an extended coast line, depos
iting 302,00n,u(M) tons a year, or six
times as much soil as was lemoved
in the construction of the Manches
ter ship chanal, and sullicient to
make a squaro mile ot new land,
allowing for its having to til! up the
Gull to a depth of eighty yards.
Some idea of the vaUnese of this op
eration may be conceived when the
fact is considered that some of this
soil has to be transported more than
3,000 miles; and that if the whole
of it had to Iks carried in boats at
the lowest rate at which heavy ma
terial is carried on the inland wa
ters of America, or say for one tenth
of a penny er ton per mile over an
average ol half the total distance,
the coat would be no less a sum
than $1,110,0(10,0(10 a year.
Through the vast delta thus formed
the river winds its way, twisting and
turning by innumerable bends until
it extends itn length to nearly 1,20
miles, or more than double the point
to point length of the delta, con
tinually erroding the banks in one
place and building up in another.
The sugar coating, which makes
Ayer's Fills so easy to take, dis
solves immediately on reaching the
stomach, and so permits tho full
strength and benefit of the medicine
to be promptly communicated. Ask
your druggist for Ayer's Almanac,
just out.
The Supreme Court of the Uni
ted S'ates bus decided that a worn
or abraidi'd silver coin ''is legal
tender as lorg as it bears the
Semblance of coin." The decision
affirms a judgment for (315 dam
ages airainst a street car company
f'r rejecting a slick dime and eject
ing the parties off-ring it. The
smooth dime has a tough time ot
it iu street car. The Conductors
are not allowed to take them, and,
of course, they don't go.
The folly of prejudice is frequent
ly shown by people who prefer to
suffer for year rather than fry an
advertised remedy. The uiillietns
who have no such notions, lake

FRETTING IS TIME WASTED.
There is one sin which is cvery
where nnder estimated, and quite
too much overlooked in valuation of
character. It is as common as air,
as speech ; so common that, nnle'ss
it rises above its usual monotony we
do not even otacrve it.
"Watch any ordinary coming to
gether of people and s'e how many
minutes it will be before tome-body
frets; that is, makes more or loss
com plaining statement of something
or other, which, most probably,
every one in the room, or in the car,
or on the street corner, it may le,
knew before, and which probably
nobody can help. Why say any
thing about it ' It is cold, it is hot,
it is wet, it is dry ; somebody hat
broken an appointment, ill cooked a
meal ; stnpidity or bad faith has re
sulted in discomfort. There are
plenty of things to fret about. It is
simply astonishing how much an
noyance may bo fonnd in the course
of every dny's living, even at the
simplest, it one oidy keeps a sharp
eye out on that side of things. Even
Holy nt says we are prone to
trouble as sparks to fly upward, in
the blackest of smoke, there is a
blue sky abovo, and the less time
they waste on the road the sooner
thev will reach it. Fretting is all
time wasted on the road. Ex.
The Fire at Wake Forest.
A special dispatch of the 8th
inst., from ake forest to the
KaleiHi .ews and Observer, savs :
The only serious fire which Wake
forest over had broke outlast night
about 8 o'clock and swept away a
stable, a fertilizer warehouse and
three stores. It seicms to have
originated accidentally in the stable
from a spark from a pipe or cigar
or possibly from a railroad engine.
The stable was euveloed in flames
when the first alarm was given.
The warehouse in contact with the
stable caught next, then the house
of Mr. Marion I'nrefoy, occupied
below by Dr. V . (J. Laukford, ss
a drug store and postoflice, and Mr.
a. Allen, stationery, etc., and
above by the Odd Fellows. The
store of Mr. W. J. Wingatc, a new
building, and that of his brother,
W. 15. Wingate, occupied by Is'. A.
Dunn tfc Co., make, with the Pure-
toy house', practically one building,
all of wood, which burnt rapidly
for atiotit an hour the residence of
Professor Poteat was in danger
through a negro house and a yard
otlice near the railroad, as was also
the rest ot the business portion of
the town, but by the heroic and
:mted efforts of the large body of
students assiste'd by a number of
the colored people tho tire was
checked. The large brick store ol
W. C. Powell it Co., though in
about six feet of W. P. "Wingate's,
was uninjured except in tearing off
some ol tho tin to pour water on
the hot timbers below. Will Kelly,
colored, was repeatedly drenched
with water .n order to enable him
to get close enough to the danr
point on the roof to put water on it.
The loss is estimated as follows:
W. C. Powell et Co., stable, f 100;
W. W. Holding, warehouse, $500,
no insurance; M. Puretoy, store
and Odd Fellows' lodge, $1,000, no

THE ARMENIAN HORROR.
Some of the Barbarous Atrocities Inflicted
by the Turks.
American mifsioimiies who have
returned from Armenia fay that
the hall has not yet been told ot
the horrible atrocitii6of the Turks.
The Moslems burn the houses of
Christians and rob them, and perse
cute them in every possible way
when they do not murder them
outright. In one place oi) Ar
menians were stripped naked and
driven into a snow storm. A man
who witnessed a massacre was set
upon by the Turks and both of bis
arms were cut off. Then his little
children were butchered, and their
mother was cnt to pieces.
The Armenians are not allowed
to carry arms or keep them in their
houses, and they are therefore com
pletely at the mercy ot their barbar
ous assailants.
The missionaries have almost
given up all hope. At one time
they thought that tho European
powers would interfere, but it
seems that England is not willing
to take any decisive step for fear
that Russia will gain some advant
aire. Turkey makes it a t0!?;' to
pay the interest on her bonds which
are held in England, and the mon
ey lenders arc holding the lintish
government back, and prevailing
it from coini' to the aid ol the
Armenians.
It has been suggested that Amer
ica should interfere and force the
Turks to behave themselves. Eu
rope would not object to this, be
cause after the trouble was over
our troops would retire, and of
course there would be no attempt
to conquer and hold any part of
Turkey. But it is not likely that
this w 11 occur, and everything
points to the absolute extermina
tion ot the Christians in the Tin kish
empire. Is'o nation will raise a
hand to protect them. Atlanta

About Winter,
Some time ago various weather
men declared this was to be a severe
winter and various reasons were
given for it. Now 6ome of them
are coming up with a different
story, but to-day it seems as if this
story was out of joint. One of
these has this to say:
"Signs of a severe, long winter
were unusually plentiful a month
or two ago, and the prophets had
a great inning with predictions of
heavy snows end long hard frotts.
-Now the signs of a mild winter are
multiplying, and the scoffers are
guying the prophets.
"Robins have appeared round
about -New London, .X. 11., during
the past few days, a sure sign ot a
mild, open winter, the weatherwise
say. In Mantueket violets and
dandelions have been blooming dur
ing the past week, and caterpillars
sre almost plentiful.
"The Keuuebcck river, which
froze up tight at the beginning of
December, is now ojen from Au
gusta to the sea, and the iere men,
who were highly elated two wueks
ago, are very doleful. Signs of
like import aie noted in many
other sections of the country."
The South's Wonderful Progress During
the Past Year.
Cotton mill building in the South
in 1S95 was pheuomeiial. The
aggregate number ot spindles for
new mills undertaken during the
year and for enlargement of old
mills was, in round numbers, ulniiit
1,000,000. The old year has wiped
out many of the scars of the busi
ness disasters following the panic;
it has cleared Rway much of the
uncertainty ol the past and given
the South an opportunity to dem
onstrate to the world the inherent
soundness of all its business interests
and to prove and have this proof
everywhere accepted, that no other
mction of this or any other land
offers such phenomenally favorable
conditions for the support of a
great population, the development
of industrial interests and the crea
tion of wealth. In brief, such has
been the record of 1 55. The new
year opens with every assurance
that the South at least will move
6teadily forward aud in 1810 will
show even greater advane-ement
than its record for 181(5. Manu

WHICH IS THE SUPERIOR?
Man is a creature of csst-iron
habits; woman adapts herself to cir
enmstanees; this is the foundation
of the moral difference between
them.
A m-tr. docs not attempt to drive
a nail unless he has a hammer; a
woman does not hesitate to utilize
anything, from the heel of a boot
to the bck of a brush.
A man considers a corkscrew ab
solutely necessary to open a bottle;
a woman attempts to extract the
cork with the scissors; if she does
not sncceed readily she pushes the
cork into the bottle; since the es
sential thing is to get at the fluid.
bhaving is the only nse to which
a man puts a razor; a woman em
plovsit i r a chiropodist s purposes.
When a man writes, everything
must lie in apple pie order; pen,
paper aiid ink must be ins. so, a
Eirofoune silence must reign while
ie acco nplishcs this important
function. A woman rets any sheet
of paper, teats it perhaps Trom a
(KKik or portfolio, sharpens ft pen
cil with 'lie scissors, puts the paper
on an c Id atlas, crosses her feet,
balances herself on a chair, and
confides her thoughts to paper,
changing from pencil to pen and
vice ven-.e from time to time, cor
does she i-are if the children romp
or the ei ok comes to speak to her.
A mar storms if the blotting pa
per is no, conveniently near; wo
man driei. the ink by blowing on it,
waving vhe paper in the air, or
holding it near a lamp or fire.
A man drops a letter unhesitat
ingly in the box ; a oman rereads
the addn-ss, assures herself that the
envelope is sealed the stamp secure,
and then throws it violently into
the box.
A man can cut a book only with
a paper-cutter ; a woman deftly in
sorts a hair pin and the book is cut.
For a man, "good bye" signifies
the end (if a conversation and the
moment of his departure; for a
woman, ii i6 the beginning of anew
chapter, for it is just when they
are taking leave of each other that
women think of the most important
topics ot conversation.
A won an ransacks her brain try

THE CONVERTED JEW.
The Winston Sentinel gives the
following interesting account of the
conversion of Mr. Levy, a promi
nent Jew of that city :
"Mr. Levy told his experience in
coming from Judaism into Chris
tit nity to a large congregation la t
night at the Methodist Protestant
church.
He first heard the name of Jesus
from the lips ot a Gentile nurse in
his father's family, who sang ot the
gentle Jesus who loved little chil
dren. He thonght Jesus was some
good gentle, man, but nothmg
more. The boys at schojl would
tannt him for being a Jew, which
made him think less of Christians.
Cruel persecution of the Jews by
so called Christian jcople caused
hirn to hate the name of Christ anu
made turn a stronger Jew and a
regular attendant upon the syna
gogue. He said that Qneen Victoria had
even loved the Jews, owing to the
fact that her father's garden joined
that ot a noblo Jew, whose home
the Queen used to visit often iu her
childhood. She carried a golden
key to open the gate between the
gardens, which was presented to
her by the Jew.
Tho synagogue service did not
satisfy the longings of his soul and
often when oppressed he wonld at
tend Christian chnrches for Solace
from the sweet mus:c. He decided
to study Christianity by observing
people, taking all for Christians
who were not Jews. This, of
course, gave a poor idea tf Chris
tianity. He saw enough iu certain
families to convince him that there
was something in the religion.
After believing with the bend, he
was troubled for several years, dur
ing which tiiuo he endeavored, by
returning to the syur-gogtie weirship
and by indulgence in sin, to draw
his impression, but could find no
rest, for the spirit followed hirn,
until he gave his heart to Christ
and became a believer in mind and
soul.
He says he belongs to all denom
inations. Some call him a Jew and
Some a Christian, and some say he

tLat Las pver occurred in Fulton
county, Ohio, took plac-e Tuesday
last when the I'ar.k of Fayette, a
private financial institution, of
which Burlier, j resident of the
Ketcham National r,nnk, of Toledo,
is a stockholder, and Chae. L.Allen,
cashier, was entered and every cent
of the cah in the safe ar,d the val
uable paper? were stolen.
The rol.lry w& not discovered
nutil the time came for the hank
to open rtxt morning. Ily that
time, of course, there was iio clue
whatever to the thieves, who left
not a sinifle trace of their identity.
The value of the money and paper
taken is not definitely known, the
officials of the hank observing the
crertcst reticence. It is believed,
however, that tit least $S00 and
probably as high at $15,000 was ob
tained. The robbers, of whom
there were at least two, pried open
a window and ta.M'y cained en
trance to the bank. Then they
blew off the sate dvor with some
powerful explosive. The rest was
easy.
