front of the Hotel Sandersville a few
evenings ago, carrying on a running
conversation about men and events.
They were calling up little "reminiscences
of the past, when one of them remarked:
"Years ago, just after the close of the
war, / remember there lived in this
county man who every day walked be-
tween the plow handles, tilling his little
farm for a livelihood, contented and
serene, seemingly careless and unmind-
full of the hard life he daily led. By his
fellows he was not accredited with any
unusual degree Of business tact, nor was
it the case that his Judgment in matters
of finance was sought by any of his
acquaintance.
"If he was overly shrewd no one knew
it; If he anticipated any successful
achievements beyond the sphere in which
he moved he did not let any one know
of this latent ambition that fred his
brain. Finally he drifted away from
these parts. At first he went to Savan-
nah. Soon after reaching that city, hay
ing made favorable impression on a
lady who had some means and who as
sisted him in pecuniary matters, he be-
came associated with John L. Martin in
the cotton commission business. In that
he prospered fairly well, and eventually
married his benefactress. Retiring from
the cotton trade he went to New York
some time in the seventies. There he
struck in, it seems, with the 'magicians
of finance in the great metropolis, and
prosperity has beamed on him ever since.

Gen. Alexander, the president, voted by
proxy 3,700 shares of that stock, the
property of Adam Dudenheifer, of New
York, and that was only meager por-
ton of his accommodations. The Adam
Dudenheifer that lived in pinched cir
cumstances in this county years ago is
now the same Dudenheifer that is ac-

city in the Union.

goes, is marvellous success, and yet it
is but the history of other men. From

way through adverse circumstances to

A Troublesome Worm.
Lewiston Journal


IL was runny to start with, but twice
as funny when the great mystery was
unraveled. At one of the Lewiston
school buildings the janitor, who is
painstaking and careful, had been ac-
cused of negligence in sweeping the floor.
He denied the charge, and said he swept
the floors regularly and carefully, but
that no matter how well he did it, the
next morning the floor was covered with
dirt and the result of his sweeping went
for nothing. He couldn't understand it.
Only one solution, ghosts--and he didn't
believe in ghosts.
Due investigation of his sweeping was
made by the authorities, and they found
that the sweeping was well done. The
next thing was to investigate the floor,
and here they found the solution. On
lifting some Of the planks, they found
the under flooring full Of borers, the
meanest kind of worm, one that works
out In the night and drags its dusty self
an over things in general, stirring up the
uirC IN tne cracks so that the first foot
steps OF the morning will send the dirt
al over the floor This was the solution
OF the mystery and the death of tha borer.
