Three Men in a Georgia Quarry Fatally
Injured.

Injured.
\ disastrous accident occurred at
Stone Mountain, Ga, on the 23d.
Large quantities OF dynamite are used
in blasting granite. \ drill-hole was
made into which some OF the
explosive was placed with a
fuse attached, and the hands re-
treated. For some cause the dyna-
mite failed to explode, when Edward
Holmes, Jasper Hamilton. and WHY
Law were sent to clean out the drill.
They had no sooner touched it than
terrific noise was heard. Rock was
scattered in all directions, The men
were found alive, though badly mutt
lated. The explosion had blown the
rock away from under their feet, Ieav-
ing them on the spot where they first
stood. Hamilton gives a thrilling ac-
count of his sensations as the three
men stood in the smoke with huge
pieces of granite flying up into the air
from about their feet Holmes has
lost his eyesight and will die, while it
Is probable that the others will re
cover.

Cost of Good Remedies.

from DR.. Foote's Health Monthly
1t has been customary to imagine
that a tremendous profit can be made
on drugs. 1t is doubtless true that
the more powerful mineral drugs can
be so diluted, without lessening
strength, as to be comparatively mex
pensive. But it Is well knOwntO prac-
tising physicians that some OF our best
remedies are exceedingly costly. One
OF the most marked Illustrations Is
the new annsthetic, hydro-chlorate OF
cOcOaine \ recent Importation IS
said to have cost IS a gramme or
1921 an ounce. An apOthecarE ;
pound would therefore cost over
50. 800 This drug IS obtained from
the cocoa leaf, and its use Is principal
" in operations upon the eyes. 1t
deadens the nerves temporarily by
simple local application, thus dong
away with the Inconvenience and
dangers OF chloroform.
1t is reasonable 10 say that all good
botanical preparations are more eN-
DenSive than those which are derived
from the mineral world In the iabo-
ratory OF the botauiralp physician many
barrelfuls Oi roots herbs and flowers
are used In getting a few pints OF a
good satmate or tmcture, or a lew
ounces OF a valuable resmOld or solid
extract. \ botanical physician,
therefore, who supplies his own RENE
dies has little opportunity to make a
rapid fortune, even when ne has q
practice which occupies nearly every
moment of his time.

Hawkinsville Dispatch: From all the
Information we can obtain, Dodge county
will be voted dry on the last day of this
month. 1t is said that the liquor men
have already given up the contest. This
concession will hardly cool the ardor or
lessen the efforts of the temperance peo-

HER NICKEL WAS LOST,
But Every Passenger in the Car offered
the Conductor Another One.
From ths PHILADELPHIA record.


From the Philadelphia Record.
A hsggard.looking little woman with
big basket of clothes got into car OF the
aristocratic Madison avenue line yester-
day evening while the rain was pouring
down in torrents. She had great difficulty
in getting the cumbersome basket into
the car, and the conductor said that she
should have taken one OF the more demo-
cratic Third avenue cars. When she en-
tered the car every seat was occupied
by well dressed men. Half a dozen OF
them jumped up at once and offered her
their seats. She bad hardly seated her
self in corner beside a handsome fat
gentleman when the conductor came
around and haughtily demanded her fare
The little woman suddenly turned red
in the face, and then tears began to drop
from her eyes. my goodness" she
sobbed, 81 have lost my nickel. l had
it in my hand when ! started to get on the
car. Unjust have dropped it in Juggling

swell, you will have to get out" an
swered the conductor in loud and I'M
sympathetic voice, while the sound OF the
rain battered against the car windows.
At the same time he rang the bell to stop
the car.
The car stopped so suddenly that the
fat gentleman, who was at the time in the
act Of jumping to his feet. was thrown In
a lump in the basket OF clothes. This ex-
cited his Indignation all the more, and as
he arose he produced a big roll Of green
backs.
'sThe idea OF putting this woman out in
such a storm as this" he roared at the
conductor. "Not much you won't, as
long as have a dollar"
Al the same time every man In the car
had hand stretched towards the con-
ductor rendering money To pay the wash
erwOman's fare. Every one OF them was
anxious for the privilege, but 1t was &C.
corded t0 the fat gentleman. After that
