An Editors Escape.

1t turns out that. editor Mumford, OF
the Talbotton Era, was one of the larg-
est sufferers by the freeze that recently
from ValdoSta to Dalton. During one
of the days when the freeze was at its
freeziest, Editor Mumford. who weighs
200 if he weighs pound, walked over
to his carp ponds, just outside of Tai
bottom, to see if he could succor his
carp. He found small pond frozen
over hard and fast, and as it bore his
200 pounds without wincing he started
sorrowfully across. On reaching an
other and larger pond he yentured on
its frozen surface without danger. In
the center of the pond he noticed water
bubbling up, and, supposing that it was
caused by his pet carp blowing in air
after the manner of whales, he fastened
to the hole. In an instant the 200
pounds of Editor Mumford were in the
hole; but as he went down he threw
out his arms and was thus prevented
from sinking entirely out of sight. The
water, as may be imagined on an oc-
casion of this kind, was cold enough
for drinking purposes on a Fourth of
July, and the ice-bound editor was
made to feel that it was growing colder
every moment. He tried to raise him
self out by his elbows, but warning
creak of the ice deferred him. AS there
was no other person within earshot, and
he found it impossible to extricate HIM
self. he felt as though the supreme mo-
ment was close at hand. Like flash
of blue fire on 'Black Crook"
spectacle, every event of his life flashed
across his mind. Every mean action
ever committed by him came out vivid
ly, and his brain fairly sung with the
good deeds he might have done.
In a second after he fell the hundreds
of carp in the pond, hungry and desper-
ate, rushed to the spot and nibbled at
his legs. 1t was when he felt the fish
tugging at his rotund body that he be-
thought himself of prayer. Loud, long,
and earnestly he prayed. He forgave
John German for writing book; he
forgaye all his delinquent subscribers,
he forgave those who recently voted the
anti-prohibition ticket in his own town,
and, in fact, he forgave everybody. In
the meantime his legs were freezing.
d1teE praying cdIucstiJ lot d loHS tuue,
and sweeping the frozen country round
with his eye in the hope of seeing some
body to pull him out, he summoned all
his strength and resolved to make one
more effort, if the ice did break. He
was successful. The ice remained in
tact, and after thirty minutes of freez-
ing agony he was out of the hole. When
he reached the bank and started home
the water in his clothes froze hard. and
his locomotion on pair of legs whose
knee hinges wouldn't bend was neces-
sarily slow and not at all graceful. But
he reached home at last, and is still
thawing. His numerous friends through
the state will rejoice with us that so far
no bad results from his cold bath in
carp pond have shown themselves
