TRANSMISSION Of Blood,

The TRANSMISSION of blood from one
human being to another, has been
done with happy effect in cases oil
loss of blood by one of the parties
DR.. S. S. Sumpter has conceived the
idea that the want of blood in
the human system may as well he
supplied from the veins of animals,
and he has ordered the necessary
instruments to try the experiment.
The writer asked him whom he pro-
posed to experiment upon, and he
said himself. He proposes to trans
fuse the blood of lamb into his
own veirs, and if the result proves
satisfactory the medical fraternity
will have he benefit of the expert
ment. 1t looks reasonable that if
the blood Of one human does
another good, that of q lamb or
ther healthy animal would answer

Attempted Burglary,

Mr.. Frank Webb informed US
that on Friday night of last wees
be was alarmed by a rafting or his
telegraph instrument at home
which was connected with that in
the office of w. n. Webb & Son.
He thought it was done by a negro
to alarm him on account of fire
and ran Immediately to the top
of the hill but saw no fire.
When he came TO Office next morn
ing he found that some one had
been moving things about and sus-
pected that an attempt had been
made to break open the money safe
Tuesday morning his suspicious
were confirmed. The safe showed
evident signs of having been tam
pered with, was slightly defaced
and the combination was all out Of
order, The ipdieations are that it
was not done by professional bur-
glars. The rObber Of course never
suspected when he was trying to en-
ter his safe that be would alarm Mr..
Webb who was more than a mile in
the country at the time, but if the
latter had suspected what was the
matter he might very easily have
caught him. There was no money
in the safe, only books and papers.

Il thought I would give you a
few items by commencing where
Celia left off.
We are having a good deal of
rain at this writing. Farming is
progressing very slowly. But little
corn is planted and no cotton worth
mentioning. Wheat is looking fine.
Much better than was expected
some time back.
Mrs. r. L. Irwin has gone to
Athens, Ala, on visit to the early
scenes of her girlhood.
IN. G. Anthony says be faithful
as Jacob of OLD and he would sue
coed after a while.
From all indications I think
Celia will change her name in q
short time and move correspon-
dence to Lynnville.
Your correspondent Sallie says
if old speck did not lay eggs
enough to set on that she would
back her. The last time that saw
old speck she was so thin that she
nau TO lean up against q stump TO
pick up grain of corn, and as for
Sallie backing her, she can't back
herself.
We challenge the state for any
man that can do more work than
Bill Bee. He says that he cleared
one acre of land, II ade rails and
fenced it and broke up and sowed
it in turnips and had mess of them
for supper all the same day. And
another day he took the timber from
the stump and made thirty five hun
lred boards all by himself. He
says he is truthful man after all.
&c. o. Williams has got all the
1earlings in this neighborhood thst
lie can carry home in a sack and he
has resorted to his saddle pockets.

The Souara.

The corporate authorities propose
to give those of the county an OPP
dortunity 10 assist in macadimiz
ing the public square in Pulaski
1t is argued that the country PEG
Pile use the streets around the courl
house mo than the town people
10 and that therefore the county
could well aft I'd to do so. This l.
a matter for the consideration of the
county court. OF one thing we art
ure: the square n eds the work
badly, and it ought to be dOnt
soon. Great gulltys have washed
I'D the streets, and in wet weather
they remind one very much of a
hoy pen. They are not monumen-
tai OF enterprise or cleanliness.

It's Easy.

4
It would be a very easy matter
for any business man in town t.
raise sufficient sum to do the adj
vertising OF Giles county's induce
ments to immigration that was pro
posed some time ago and which the
CITIZEN has SO often urged to have
done. A number Of gentlemen in
town have expressed a Willingness
to bear their respective shares of
the expense; we heard one of them
say he wou d pay twenty-five dol
lars to the enterprise, and others
would be as liberal as he If immi-
grants are brought here business
will necessarily be increa ed in pro
portion TO their numbers and all
our citizens will be benefited alike
in the development of the latent re-
sources of the county. We candid
ly believe that If any business man
in town would undertake the task
he could raise enough money in one
week to have all the printing done
that is needed, and that ne would
find it an easy job. OF course peo-
pie from all over the county would
as will those in town. So
long as no effort is made nothing
will be accomplished; that's certain.
And as soon as we begin to work re-
suits will as certainly follow. Ali
countries that get immigrants get
them at some cost, but they never
fail to pay the money back with |
good profits. 1t is a paying invest |
nent to the citizens of any country |
20 advertise its advantages to the
world, and especially when those adj
7antages are SO great and diversi-
led as Giles can offer. What is so
,asy of accomplishment and promises
'uch favorable results is worthy of
and we hope it will
Ioon be done. There are men in
his town ready with the money
md willing to pay it to begin a
to increase our popula
ion, and they will pay 1t to any
proper person who will approach
hem. For the want of enterprise
md action upon the part OF the peo-
lie Of Giles the population of this
ounty has actually decreased while
ther less attractive countries have
ten growing in population and de-
clipping constantly. How have
hey done it2 How have the west
IN states gained the citizenship of
o many of the former citizens of
tiles. 1t was by pursuing the very
curse we now propose-advertising
heir resources. And what advan-
ages can any of them offer that are

the Linden House early Wednesday
morning to listen to the ripping
waters of Pigeon Roost creek, to
sit upon its moss covered banks be-
hind the unlucky fishing-rods and
wait for trout that WIuld bite not
this, but some other day.. They
returned about 2 p. m. and brought
to our utter surprise, thirteen lovely
fish, which had they been left to
enjoy their sauatic homes four or
Eve years longer, would have done
credit to almost any party OF four
fishermen or women. The thirteen
fish, goblet of water and all weighed
one pound. They think of going
again in . year or two.
