The State of Georgia now yields
over one million dollars per snnum
in gold bullion, and her gold mines
are attracting general attention.
The gold region of Georgia is out Of
the reach of railroad and telegraph,
and consequently little of the exten"
sive work being done is reported.
Several companies, with capital in
excess of one hundred thousand dol
lars are engaged in working or es~
tablishipg mills, and the yield will
be largely increased from date. DR..
Little, the state geologist, asserts
that there is more gold in Georgia
than there was in California, and
that the annual yield might be in
creased ten times above what it il
now, and then not be practically ex-
hausted.

rzE BRIDAL PACKAGE GREEN
RACKS.


Nearly every bridal couple that
comes to WashingtOn-and Wash
ington is the national bridal Mecca-
visits the treasury vaults. The
Young and invariably interesting
couple want to closely inspect Uncle
Sans plentiful shekels. When they
enter the vault the man in charge OF
it. after few preliminary words OF
explanation, hands down a package
of notes from a shelf and tells the
bride to take it in her hands. lie
then explains that this package con"
tains $4,000, 900 in United States
treasury notes. The young lady Is
delighted to be able to go away and
saw that she has held so much money
in her own hands She is just too
utterly pleased. The groom also
wants to handle the package. They
are further told that the notes are all
of the denomination of $40, 00O.--
They constitute what is known as
the bridal package" Young mare
ried tourists, having heard of this
package, often ask to handle it just
as soon as they enter the vsults.-
This is all very pretty. But it is q
fraud on the young people. The
treasury here does not hold that
amount of money. The bulk OF the
money is in the sub,treasury at New
York. That bridal package" is
CAV deceiver. 1t does contain, how
ever. notes of the denomination of
$4,000, which would, 10 the aggre"
gate, represent S2O,000,OOo if they
were only signed. But they are
minus the necessary nignatures.

A receipt for making soup: Take
a pail OF water and wash it clean,
then boil it till it is brown on both
sides pour in one bean; when the
bean begins to worry, prepare to
simmer. If soup won't simmer, it is
too rich. Pour 10 more water; dry
the water with towel before you
put it in; the drier the water, the
sooner it browns. Serve hot.

LYONS-At the residence Of her son-in-
law, William Vickery, in Lake Charles, June
3, 1882, Mrs. Mary Ann Lyons, In the sixty
ninth year Of her age.
The deceased was the only survivor
of the issue of Luke Bryan, Sr. and
Rebecca w. Berwick. Some thirty
five years ago she cspoused the cause
of Christ and was baptised and receiy-
ed into the Baptist church. Time
never changed her, and from then un-
til the day of her death, she remained
consistent and faithful member of
the church, living and acting the life
of true christian woman. She was
generous and liberal to fault and was
noted for her many acts of charity and
kindly feeling for the unfortunate and
needy on all occasions. She bore her
affection with christian grace and for
titude, and passed away surrounded by
her large family of children, who did
all that patient care, love and human
ingenuity could to prolong her life and
keep her with them. To the SORROW
ing relatives of the departed the Echo
tenders its warmest sympathies.
