A MISGUIDED YANKEE .
Finds Northern Ideas of Cuffie's Stat.
us at the South Very Expensive.

Macon Telegraph.
Not many moons ago, a North
erner named Dooling dropped
! down from the land of icy winds
into the quiet little town of Jones'
boro. He took up his residence
there and they say was not only
particularly in what he said as to
the negro being deprived of his
rights IN the South. Being peace
ably disposed the people said
nothing to him and allowed him
to express himselffreely.
1t happened some time since
that while taking an airing with
his horse ana buggy, he co.lided
with a wagon of negro named
Nose. Whether Dooling or Nose
was entitled to the road, our in
tormant did not learn, but the ev-
ldence discloses the fact that when
the smoke was cleared away from
the wreck one buggy wheel was
demolished. Dooling claimed an
other wheel and Nose searched
the neighborhood for one, but
failed to find it. During his alb
sence Dooling hatched a plan by
which he would be reimbursed
for his loss, and when he returned
the man from the North leveled
his pistol at the negro and told
him to ''shuck his coat" The
coat shucked, the west came off
under the same coaxing il iuences
and these we're transferred to the
buggy of Dooling, who told the
negro to meet him in Johesboro
on the following day and bring
him money enough to pay the for
the damage to the wheel.
The two separated, both vehi-
cles limping. The next day Nose
was in Jonesboro according to
promise with money to pay for
the broken wheel, but Dooling
failed to show up. Nose proba-
bly, took up the idea that Dooling
had wrongfully dispossessed him
of his coat and vest, and as the
grand jury Of Clayton county was
in session he went before them
and laid bare the facts of the col
lision. Dooling was indicated for
robbery. He was arrested and
tried at the recent term of the
court and convicted on Saturday
and sentenced to two years in the
penitentiary.
The case excited no little inter
est in the county for the reason
that the opinions as to the status
of the negro in the South as cur
rent in the North are just now de-
manding attention.
Mr.. Dooling in his new posi-
ton, will perhaps, have another
phase of the negro to study and
comment upon.

4A4~5 -
From the st. Louis Globe-Democrat.
Lieutenant a W. A. Skunk, Eighth
y United States cavalry, and Mrs.
Carrie Pratt, daughter of Post
Chaplain Merrill, were united in
the hely bonds of wedlock at Fort
Clark, Texas, one bright and rosv
morning in early June last Two
hours after the ceremony was per-
formed,and while bride and groom.
surrounded by congratulatory
friends, still fingered over the
sumptuous wedding breakfast, all
order was received from head
quarters directing Lieutenant
Shunk's company to take the field
against Gerouimo, the Apache
chief, and his bend of restless.
discontented and yblood-thirsty
redskins. It was hard. Not a
doubt of that. But there was
nothing for Lieutenant Skunk t.
do but bid his blushing and weep
ing bride goodbye, fling himself
into the saddle, and ride away af-
ter the Apache miscreants. It
soon became evident that the cam
paign against the Indians would
be long and tedious, SO Post Chap
lain Merrill decided to return
with his family, including Mrs.
Lieutenant Skunk, to their old
home in Atlanta, Ga. Thus the
the separation between the rude
ly severed man and wife became
wider and more complete. All
summer long Lieutenant Skunk,
with his company,sc through
Arizona in pursuit of the Apache
band, while his brave and patient
wife quietly awaited his return at
her old home away down in Geor-
gia. Two weeks ago Lieutenant
Skunk, still in the field, was over
whelmed with JOY and pleasure
BILE anticipation by the receipt of
an order detailing him to attend
the calvary school at Fort Leaven-
worth, Kansas. AS may be imag-
ined, he was not long in obeying
this most welcome order. Upon
reaching Fort Leavenworth he
readily secured a short leave of
absence, telegraphed Mrs. Skunk
to meet him in St Louis, and on
Monday bride and groom were re-
united at the Southern hotel in
this city. Their long deferred
honeymoon will doubtless prove
unusually happy, and will be
marred by no separation. Under
army regulations one lieutenant
from each regiment in the service
is sent to the "school" at Leaven-
worth, where they must remain
two years for the purpose of re-
ceiving instruction in the higher
and more intricate branches of
their profession. For two years,
therefore, lieutenant and Mrs.
Skunk may enjoy each others So
ciety without fear Of interruption.

Another Mans Wife.
From the Atlanta Capital.

From the Atlanta Capltal'
Chief Connally said to the re-
porter this morning that legisla-
tor took another mans wife to
MERGERS restaurant last night, t,and
was treating her to a splendid re-
past, when the lady's husband
came in. With woman's instinct
the wife rushed to her husband
and exclaimed: my dear, I've
been looking for you everywhere. "
The outraged husband couldn't
be SO easily gulled, and he drew a
revolver and told the legislator to
make himself scarce, which the
lawmaker proceeded to do without
stopping to discuss the matter
The husband then took his wife
by the arm and said: 'T'll fix you
when I get you home" ." The coup
le then silently departed.

A Dog Tanning the Baby.
Pittsburg Chronicle.

Plttsburg Chronicle.
Dog stories are always in order,
provided they are true. A gentle
man in one Of the suburban wards
owned a fine specimen Of the
spaniel breed, which is very fond
of children, and when any little
ones visit his masters house con-
stitutes himself their companion,
playmate and guardian. A few
days ago a lady with an infant vis-
tied the gentleman, and in the
course of the day the child was
laid on a pillow on the floor to
amuse itself for a time. The dog
took his place near the little one,
as usual. The day was hot and
the flies bad, and they made the
baby the target of frequent at
tacks. This rendered her restless.
Doggie watched her for a few min
utes, and then, walking close up,
with his nose or paw drove away
every fly as soon as it lit on the
baby's face, and did it SO gently,
too, as not to disturb her in the
least. The dogs actions attracted
the attention of the mother and
others, who were filed with aston
ishment at his thoughtful kindness.
This story has the merit Of truth.

An ex-0rdinary Will Try the Chain
Gang.

From the Athens Banner Watchman.
The great trial of the State
against R. N. Groves, the former
Ordinary of Haoersham, was tried
this week before Judge Lumpkin
at Clarksville. There has been a
great deal Of crookedness in the
county offices of this county, and
thepeople were burdened with tax
es on account of this crookedness,
and were determined to ferret the
matter out and bring the guilty
ones to justice. There were sew
eral indictments against Groves.
His lawyers did their best for a
continuance, but to no purpose.
Judge Lumkin overruled all the
little technalities and had the
cases tried, and Groves was con-
victed. In one case he was found
guilty and sentenced to six months
in Jail. In another he was SEN
fenced to twelve months on the
chain-gang and to pay a fine of
81, 900 and the cost of the suit.
Mr.. Groves has been a man of
some prominence in the county,
and served as Ordinary for g eat
number Of years, 1t is said by
those who know that he has only
been duped by outside parties, as
he is a poor man and has never
made anything by his operations

The agricultural colleges are de-

be independent in every way.-N. Y. In

The English Methodists have raised
fund of 100000 for carrying the
Gospel to the most abandoned districts

The parish church at Stratford-on-
Avon, which is Shakspeare's burial
place, is to be renovated and restored,

The Bishop of Lichfeld, DR.. Macla-
gan, in his speech at the recent ses-
sional opening of the Kings College,
London, classes for women, spoke out
clearly and distinctly as to the right OF
every woman to avail herself of every
chance of obtaining the highest educa-
ton possible.
Bishop Isaac w. Wiley, of the Meth
odist Episcopal Church, who died very
suddenly in Fuh Chau, China. was
making an Episcopal tour of the Asiatic
missions of his church, in which he felt
great interest, particularly in China,
where he had served as missionary.
He was elected Bishop in 1872, st the
age OF forty-seven.
Rev. w. Nj. Patterson, of the
Southern Methodist Mexico mission,
writes that the new mission in Morelia,
Mexico. is prospecting, with congrega-
ton of from five to six hundred persons.
The industrial colleges in the city of
Mexico, the girls under Miss Halloran,
and the boys under Professor Trujello,
are doing better than ever before. The
work in the Guadalajara district is adj
vancing, and there have been several
conversions.
The Church Standard says: Let
parents beware what they say about the
sermon or the preacher before their
children, in whose hearts the Word of
God may be seeking Judgment. Why
pray in the morning for the conversion
of sinners, ana then, by cold criticism of
the sermon, neutralize the very means
by which it pleases God to savep
Thoughtless comments at the dinner
table will do this far more efl'ectually
than all the profanity the children hear
as they pass the drinking saloons on
their way to school.

DEALING IN DEAD HORSES.

Shoes, Fertilizers, Ladies' Switches, But
tons and Glue Made Out Of Defunct
Equines.
A crowd had gathered on South
Side street corner, where horse with
broken leg had been shot. As the
owner stood ruefully surveying his loss
fat, dark complexioncd man elbowed
his way up and said, as no smiled
grimly:
''Say, mister, I'll cart that horse away
If you will give it to me. Is it . bar
gainp"
The owner pondered a moment.
looked around at the crowd, and re-
marked:
1.-THE animal is no use to me, and
guess you can have it, but I'm blessed
if / know what you want with it. You
can have it ii you will tell me-"
''All right. You see dead horse
represents considerable money to me,
and when / can get one, l am going ia
drop onto it every time. I'll haul the
animal out to my place. where l will
skin it and tan the hide, or else sell il
raw to one OF the tanneries. 1t will

will proceed to make it up-into shoes.
The leather. being soft and waterproof,
makes up nicely and commands fancy
price.
''Shoes made of cordovan, as the
leather is called, are considered the
proper thing by swells and sell well.
The tail, when it is long and bushy, can
be made into a nice horse-brush OF
switch for ladies. To make a nice
switch. ! take out the bone from the
tail and tack the skin onto handle,
and there we have it, all ready for use
as soon as it gets dry"
''But, what do you do with the re-
mainder of the body-the bones and
feshp"
20, they come in handy. I raise
lots of hunting dogs. Of course, if
were to buy beef for them it would cost
me small fortune. When get or buy
dead horses save some of the meat,
feeding the dogs on that. They thrive
on it, and it don't cost me much.
''The hoofs sell to some glue factory,
where they are boiled down and made
into glue. Do make use of the bonesf
Of course / do. Sometimes l grind
them up and sell them as fertilizers.
Ground bone is the stuff TO spread on
your garden if you want to raise good
crops. When l am busy and want to
dispose of them l sell them to some
button-factory. They make buttons,
large and small, out of bones. / have
seen some knife handles made from
bone, but it cracks easily and is moi
used much. Buttons are more generally
made from horse bones than anything
else in that line.
''Now, if you want any meat for yom
cats let me know, and l will supply
YOU" but the former possessor of the
horse did not seem to relish the idea OF
his cats being fed on horsefesh, and de-
clined the offer with thanks. MilUaukC<
