THE opposition Of the Republicans
to the Redistricting bill was as sense
less as their fight against registration
law. They probably expect to reap
some benefit from local dissatisfaction
with the measure, but statute that
saves the State $4,000 is not likely to
meet with any general diSfavor. The
action of the Republicans ON both of
these bills was from supposed party
policy, and influenced 10y no genuine
objection to the bills ON their merits.
In fact, the tactics of Ithe Republicans
on all measures has been to make
party capital, but they overdid the
thing.

Not Dead Yet.

Atlanta papers are giving the public some
curious and wonderful cases that are quite
interesting. 1t seems that a Young lady OF
Atlanta had been reported as dead, but It
came to the ears OF the Atlanta Journal that
she was still alive, and being on the alert
for news, q reporter was sent to the resi-
dence to learn the facts Miss Belle Duna-
way, who had been pronounced dead, met
him at the door, stoutly denying that she
was dead. She said:
"For four years rheumatism and neuralgia
have resisted physicians and all other treat
ment. My muscles seemed to dry up. my
flesh shrank away. my joints were swollen,
painful and large, lost my appetite, was re-
duced to 60 pounds in weight and for
months, was expected TO die. commenced
the use of B. B. B, and the action OF one-half
a bottle convinced my friends that 1t would
cure me. Its effect was like magic. 1t gave
me an appetite-gave me strength, relieved
all pains and aches, added flesh TO my bones,
and when I've b titles had been used had
gained so pounds of flesh, and am to-day
sound and WE'LL"

1t is estimated that of the number
of people who meet their deaths from
railway accidents 10 per cent are
killed by falling or being thrown from
engines or trans in motion. Forty
per cent of those injured by railways
are hurt in coupling cars, and per
cent. of the killed are killed from the
same cause. The average life OF a
brakeman is only ten years.

A CHRONICLE reporter interviewed
Col Walter S. Gordon Thursday con-
corning the article from the St. Louis
Republican which we publish else
where, stating that large amount of
capital has been raised by company
that propose at once to build railroad
from st. Louis to Nashville via Padu-
cab and GAINESVILLE. The Colonel said
this was the first intimation he had
had of such road being projected
and he couldn't see now such big
scheme could be so suddenly consum-
mated. Some of tie parties mention
ed as incorporators he knows to he
railroad men. Mr. Albert l.. Black
man he has met in New York and
knows him to be prominently connect
ed with railroad building in Canada.
The building of the road, he says,
would help the /. A. & T. The two
roads could occupy the same track for

More than Money.
To the Chronicle:
A most affecting scene took place in
the Methodist church ut Erin last Sat
urday evening, when, after the usual
conference business of the Centreville
district, the appended resolutions were
presented and passed unanimously by
rising vote. 1t was the leave taking
of a noble soldier of the cross with his
coadjutors who had for four years borne
with him the heat and burden of the
day.
The Rev. ]. J. Conner, p. E, is IA man
somewhat advanced in life but with
vigorous intellect and physique, as
well as warm and generous heart.
His work has been hard embracing
sixteen pastoral chlryas lgl ~ over five
counties. Daring these years he has
met the Responsibilities Of his charge
promptly and won tine affections of
thousands who have waited upon his
ministry. When the resolutions were
passed, he undertook to respond, but
such Was the outhurst of feeling per-
vading his preachers and people, that
general shout, which lasted some
time, pervaded the whole assembly.
His truly itinerant wife shared
largely of the Divine blessing and
clearly evinced the strength of the ties
that bound her to preachers and peo-
pie:
Whereas, our beloved Presiding Ell
der, Rev. J. J. Conner, has served our
district for four consecutive years,
with faithfulness to God and to the
church and greatly to the building up
of the district in all of its interests. We
desire to express our high appreciation
OF his official, ministerial and social re-
lation with us and our regret that by
the law of our church this relation
shall soon formally cease, therefore.
Resolved, That we commend him
to God and to the church, following |
him with our prayers wherever, in the
of God his lot may be cast.
Resolved, That this preamble and
these resolutions be spread upon the
of the conference.
