Facts from the Farms.

Three hundred acres will be planted in
melons in Taylor county.
About POO tons of guanO have been
sold at Dawson so far this season.
ClaytOn's farmers are all putting in
good time, and the prospects for an album
dant harvest were never better.
There are very few peach blooms in the
vicinity of Calhoun yet. The cold weather
has greatly retarded everything.
John Mutt, of Henry county, has pur-
chased an imported Spanish COW at a cost
Of 500, which he says lays the Jersey in
the shade.
Ebert county farmers are not, a gen.
eral thing, planting much corn this year
not as much as usual; but what they do
plant most of them are manuring well.
The oat crop in Richmond county is
looking well, especially the early sowing.
That which was sOwn late has been con-
siderably killed out by the cold weather
Cedartown ADVERTISER: Monday might
appropriately be termed "guanO day" In
consequence of the soaking rain of FRIDAY
and Saturday, the lands were too wet TO
pillow, and the average farmer embraced
the occasion and sent his team to town
after the OdOriterOus substance. The
streets at one time seemed fairly lined
with wagons. To the man who has a
heartfelt wish for the cOuntry's prosper
ity the picture was not an encouraging
one. We heard a sOber-minded farmer
who believes in plenty Of meat and bread
say: "There are more fertilizers being
bought this spring than | have noticed
before in five years. If there should come
a drought this season you may look out for
more long faces than you have seen be-
fore in five years."

IMPRISONED UNJUsTLY.
Two Young Men Spend Five Months
in Jail for the Crime of Another.
From Tie PAiIadeIphid Press,

From the Philadelphia Press.
A remarkable case of misdirected OFF,
cial zeal, involving the imprisonment of a
young man, living here, and also his frien5,
whose home is in Virginia, for over five
months in Pittsburg, on a charge of for
gerry, has come to light through the arrest
of the real culprit in Boston. Eug me S.
Essex is a young man, whose parents re-
side in Philadelphia. A lutte less than a
year ago he went to Pittsbu 2 and ,e-
cured employment With an advertising
firm. He-e he met young man named
Lipseomb, from Norfolk, Va, and the two
became bosom friends.
On August Is a forged check was
handed in at the -irst National Bank, i.
Pittssurg. 1t was for 500 and the you g
man who had it went into the bank just
after hours, in great hurry, and secured
the money representing himself to be
connected with a mercantile firm near by.
The swindle was d scovereO soon after
ward. Sc, eral VS. passed wlthoL any
arrests being made.
Then Esse-- and his friend, 1ipscom7.
we're arrested. The county ne 'ctive
worked tbs case u and the clue on
which he operated was n resemblance be-
tive LipscOmb and the man who took
the check to the bank. Several o'her
cases OF forging o. similar nature, all
operated b the same ran, were worked
up, and five ind .ctments were found
a, ainst the two -Nung men. Liptc)n5
was tried before Judge White.
This was In the latter part Of August.
The case against Lipscomh had been DIS
posed of, but Is the other charges were
pending, the, sung Len were remanded
to jai.. Benson Mann was employed by
the frienA If E. lex TO defend him ana
! Col. William Il. Mann was associated
! with him in the case. Bail to the amount
of 81. $50 was demanded, and, when $4,000
security was offered it was refused. Both
young men remained in jail untrled until
| a short time ago, and tiually they were
/ brought into court, and, acting under the
advice of the officers Of the commonwealth
! and volunteer counsel, and against the
/ instruction of their Philadelphia counsel,
| thew entered plea OF NOile cOateRdre, and
We're sentenced to twenty days in the
| work house.
Within the past few days the true cul-
prit has been discovered in the person OF
| Julius X. Dillman, who lives in Detroit
| Mr.. Mann noticed dispatch from Bos-
! ton detailing Dillman's arrest for forging
| there. The numbers Of the forged checks
We're 81, the same as the checks Essex
! and Lipscomb were accused of utterlng IN
! Pittsburg. The amounts were also SINH
lar. Mr.. Mann at once began a search
ing investigation. and has secured photo
| graphs of the Boston checks. These
! compared with the handwriting on the
checks uttered in Pittsburg, leave nc
| doubt as to the guilt OF Dillman. Both
young men are now at liberty, and THEN
counsel will bring suits against the al
thoritles Of Allegheny county for damages
if the responsibility Tor the false impris-
! Onment can be fixed.

still holds good: "a greyhounde shulde

Drake. Foted like Kat. Tayled like a
Rat. Syded lyke Teme. Chyned like a
Beme." The last of these maXims is mis-
quoted by IOuatt and others who seem
TO have followed him blindly. They write
"chined like a Bream," and We have
heard arguments in favor of ahighly arch

THE PRICE OF A FIDDLE.
A Paris Trsdesman Taken in by Two
Artful Dodgers.
From the Paris Norniag Ne15s


A few days ago a little street musician,
with his violin under his arm, entered a
pork butchers shop in the Rue DIES
Martyrs and purchased a knuckle
of ham for francs. On feeling in his
pockets he found that he had lett
the money at home which his mother had
given him to pay for il. A it was lunch
con time, ana be would be scOlded if he
went home empty-handsd, he asked
the shOpkeeper to take the violin
in pledge; he would come and re-
deem it in the afternoon. The sh0pkeeper
consented and put the instrument away
in a corner. A quarter of an hour later a
gentleman of distinguished appearance
drove up in landau, made purchases of
pate de tOie grdS to the amount Of 80 francs,
and carelessly taking up the violin eX-
claimed: "What a superb inStrumentW
He tried it en- cORD0iSSe1r and offered
100, 200, 800, ald finally loco francs for
it. The sbOpkeeper could not dispose OF
what did not belong to him, but promised
to try and obtain it for his wealthy GUS
toner, who took his departure, leaving as
his address,: 'Lord Russell, Grand H0-
tel" A very pretty scene ensucd on
the return Of the poor little musician.
He for some time objected to part
ing with his faVorite fiddle, but at last,
after going home TO obtain his mothers
consent, he gave it up for $50 francs. The
pork butcher dressed himself in his best,
called "a cab, and drove to the Grand
Hotel, where he was politely informed
that no such person as Lord Russell
was staying there. The unfortunate
tradesman turned all col0rs, eXcitedly in
sisted that ne was not mistaken, and
brandished his fiddle with such energy
that be had TO be turned out. The value
of the instrument has since been ascer-
tanned to be francs.
