SAM JONES' TROUBLES.

Sudden Storm.
Special to the Memphis Avalan che.
Gainesville, Ga, September 81
Rev. Sam Jones' home was the scene |
OF great excitement. The great
evangelist was to have closed his
meeting last night. The people of
Gainesville were awakened early yes
terday morning by terrible crash,
and the inmates of Sam Jones' house
felt the house tremble and heard the
windows rattle. At the same time a
man at the gospel tent, several hun
bred yards distant, saw a flash of light
in the direction of Jones residence ac-
companying the explosion. The flash
seemed like suppressed bolt OF light
ming, that appearance of it having
been caused by the fact that the ex>
plosion was within the walls of the
house. A crowd gathered and found
the large stable Of Mr.. Jones had been
BLOWN UP BY DYN AMITERs.
The charred fuse of the cartridge was
found. No one was injured.
Friday night in the course of his
sermon'Mr. Jones made very severe
attack on the men who are hanking
the prohibition law in Gainesville,
and it is supposed they did the work
last night.
A PANIC UNDER CANVAS.
AS services were in progress under
the great tent which was filled with
people, fearful gust of wind with
torrents of rain burst over its white
folds. The great ropes snapped like
thread and the tent with all its rigging
and paraphernalia settled down like
great bird on its nest, covering the
lamps, pulpit and congregation under
its vast folds. Men, women and chill
dren, who but a moment before felt al
secure from the raging elements as il
they were under their own roofs, ROSE
to their feet shrieking and running
hither and thither among the PLANK
seats. The scare was indescribable
s widest confusion reigued, with terri
. fed children clinging to their fyint
parents. Hats. shawls and other ligh
articles were blowing about like chat
and all were swept out into the storm
8 and darkness. Two sets of lamp
were swept from their fastenings ant

WHY NOR DO IT?

If proposition Is made to legisiate on
railroads, in order to exact from them fair
ness to the public as well as a healthful
mode of doing business for themselves. we
are met with the cry that such legislation
will ruin the interests involved, or wordu
to that effect. Well, look at the case now!
By wild competition between the trunk
lines for many months past they have well
nigh ruined themselves, and have also
helped to ruin business, along their lines.
Could any leglsl .sion have brought them
to lower ebb than they are now? We
think not. Well, having tried hands off
with no good results, why not try hands
on for awhile and see what that can do
If the present cut-throat system which is
the preference of the roads and which they
demand they shall be allowed to adopt
without Interference, has failed, why not
try something else. This competition has
ruined the railroads. ground the small
towns along their lines to powder, and
robbed the farmer on the Eastern slope. of
the benefit that ought to accrue from his
proximity to the ocean. Isn't it time to
stop this sort of thing by wise legislation
