An iron furnace is to be built at Cave

nounced fine.
1t is said that Mr.rNussbaum will spend
S5OO,OO0 on the Brown house at Macon,
making it one of the best hotels in the
state.
Col. w. H. Cunningham, formerly of
Atlanta but now connected with the Macon
Eueninq NetUs, will soon start a paper at
Culloden.
1t is reported that the dummy engines
and cars at. Macon have been sold, prepara-
tory to the introduction of electric cars on
the dummy lice.
The Journal is now the official organ of
Atlanta. Hereafter all the city ordinances,
marshars sales and other advertisements of
the city will appear exclusively In the col

Macon Telegraph: The fact that the ex-
ports of Savannah have increased over

much attention, but if present indications
may be relied on the next year will show a
much larger increase in the business of
Georgia's great port.
Macon Telegraph: The constant i'm
provement of Macon is receiving the no
tice OF the press throughout the country.
Few days pass now which do not develop
some new enterprise which will increase the

so prosperous as it is now, and its future
was never before so promising.

writing OF this play, you were held in

81 am sure,n replied Senator Plumb, 81
do not know how to reply to your unex-
pected and complimentary words. You are
perfectly right in what you say about the
lack of consideration for our public men.
We never do them justice until they are
dead. People ask why to-day we have not
WebsterS and Claws and claim that this is
IS an era Of mediocrity in craftsmanship.
They forget that great men are only horn of
great events, and to-day we have nothing of
stupendous moment to fight over. The gre It
financial issues have been settled. The only
thing to talk about is the tariff, and that, you
know, is threshing old wheat. You men of
the stage are doing a valuable work to-day.
You have an enormous power for good or
evil within your hands. In this era of bust
ness rush and excitement men need a men
tai rest at night, and they seek it in the
theaters. You teach impressive object
lessons, and the future of the country de-
ponds much upon what you teach. In this
play of The Senator its author has GER
tainly succeeded in throwing a truer light
upon the politicians than ever before cast,
and the only criticism that | have to make
or your PRESERVATION is that you make me a
much handsomer man than I really am"
Pretty good talk that. even for a senator.

Killed by a Rattlesnake.

From the Tallahassee (Fla.) Bloridian.
John H. Law of Cincinnati, accompanied
by Andrew Low Green of Philadelphia, was
out hunting last Thursday about nine miles
from Tallahassee, near what is known as
Gopher Ridge, and met with quite q loss in
the death of a very valuable ard promising
young setter dog "Bolus, Jr." One of the
dogs, ''Cad," made stand which the gentle
man thought to be on quail. Mr.. Law was
nearest her. Mr.. Green, with two dogs.
was some 100 feet or more away. MIR. Green
called to Mr.. Law to wait until he came up,
which he did. The dog pointing, discover
ing her mistake, approached the snake; the
other dogs, seeing her action, did likewise.
Mr.. Law had by that time approached to
within about six feet of the spot, discover
ing it was a huge rattlesnake, and seeing
the danger he was in and TO save himself
and the dogs, raised his gun to fire, but the
snake was too quick for him, striking
'Bolus,n and then Immediately recoiling to
strike again, but before he could get his
work in the second time Mr.. Law shot him.
Poor "Bolus" was dead within an hour and
a half after he was struck. He was buried
not far from the spot where he was killed.
His last cunning act before he was killed
was in pointing quail while IN the act of
retrieving a dead one, holding the dead bird
in his mouth while pointing the live one.

FASHIONABLE SOCIETY.

The trying ordeals which fashionable
society imposes on its devotees are
enough to severely test the physical
strength and endurance of the most TO-
bust. Irregular and late hours, over
rich and indigestible food, late suppers,
the fatigue of the ballroom, the bad air
of the illy-ventilated. overcrowded
theatre, are each, in themselves, sufi-
cient to upset the system and ruin the
health of the delicate and sensitive.
Combined, they can hardly fail, if per-
sisted in, to seriously impair the health
of the hardest. Ladies generally
possess less mowers Of endurance than
their male consorts, and so the sooner

CRANE AND "IHE SENATOR"
The Character He Personates Inspired
by Senator Plumb, of Kansas.
IE-ou, 4bo ;Io5aJ,,b;o T.,

The Character He Personates Inspired
by Senator Plumb, of Kansas.
From, the Philadelphia Inquirer.
There was meeting one night this week
between United States senator and his
counterfeit presentment which proved in
teresting.
1t is generally known fact that Comedian
William II. Crane in his personification of
Hannibal Rivers in tn 9 wonderfully sue
cessful play of 1.-THE Senator initiates SEN
ator Plumb, Of Kansas. There is nothing
in the portrayal that the man portrayed
should not be thoroughly proud of, and yet
[ have seen it stated in number of news
papers that the Kansas solon was disposed
TO be indignant with the liberty
taken with his personality. How lit
tie that is true was demonstrated this
week. One night a man of rugged, but
distinguished appearance and over six feet
in hight, entered the Star theater alone and
purchased one of the poorest sents in the
house, but which was the best he could OBJ
tain. The alert eyes of Mr.. Cranes repre-
sentative, John B. McComick-a Philadel-
phia boy, by the way-fell upon him.
Having had an exceptionally wide news
paper experience, Mccormick is familiar
with the appearances of the public men of
this country, and stepping forward to his
latest conner, he said;
This is Senator Plumb, believe"
The gray-haired six-footer blushingly
confessed to his identity, and IN a
very few minutes he was installed in the
private box of Theodore Moss, the sale
of which is never permitted, and from
that point of vantage he was soon gazing
upon himself in the mirror Of Cranes art.
He was so pleased with what he saw that
he requested to be taken behind the scenes
to make the acquaintance of the comedian.
The latter was found in his drawing room,
seated before a mirror and givi G some re-
plenishing touches to his makeup. After
the men had shaken hands, Crane, pointing
to photograph stuck in one corner of the
glass before which he was seated, exclaimed:
"Sena or, there you are!n The man from
Kansas Redeemed as he looked, because
what he saw was photograph of himself,
and then for the first time he learned that
every night Crane in preparing for his part
absolutely follows the lines of the western
senator's visage as presented In picture.
The conversation which ensued was inter
esting. SENATOR said MIR. Crane, 81 hope
You will not think that / have been guilty
Of an impertiuence in taking the liberty Of
making you my model in the part am now
playing, because intended it as a testimony
Of the sincerest admiration" The senator
laughingly shook his head in protest.
When the late David Lloyd,n continued
Mr.. Crane, twas writing for me the play
Of The Senator he had in his mind for the
part OF Hannibal Rivers q sort Of w ash
lngton Pnlpps' man--you are Of course
familiar with the character In the
BaLker's Daughter said to him
that / would Ike a better and a
stronger type Of man. ] said 10 himi Take

After this the carpenter reformed.

The first thing he did was to take his
drawing knife and jack plane and make
him leg, not quite as fat as the other one,
maybe, but leg just the same, and for two
or three years he has managed TO travel
about in pretty good shape with the home
made member.
Some time ago he again fell into his old
habits of drinking.
Several weeks ago he got drunk again.
He started home in the afternoon and
managed to get along pretty we'll until he
came to the railroad track. A switch en-
CINE was approaching, but the man was feel
ing too good to notice such small thing as
that until it was almost upon him, and then
be tried to hurry, but somehow or another
the railroad track flew up and hit him in
the face, and the next thing he knew the
wheels of the engine crushed his wooden
leg into kinding.
Some one said when they picked the man
up and put him in hack to carry him
home that he insisted upon carrying the
fragments of the leg with him to kindle a
fire in the stove to get supper with, but of
course there was no truth In that.
Ae is now at work on another leg.

"Now just stand beside me n minute
and notice how much innate hoggish-
ness there Is in human nature" said a
conductor at the Boston and Maine sta
ton last night to Globe reporter. "The
5:45 train is just backing in. Watch"
The long row OF empty cars slowly
rolled into the station. The large plat
form and the little platform between the
tracks were covered with men and
women waiting to get seats as soon as
the cars stopped. But as the speed OF
the cars slackened somewhat a move
ment began all along the crowd. Men
jostled against each other in frantic at
tempts to board the moving cars, clutch
ed at the rails and stumbled all over the
steps, trying to Chamber aboard; and
when the cars came to full stop nearly
every one of them was almost filed with
men comfortably reading their papers.
AS for the women. Well, one or two
brave but careless souls may have tried
to step upon a car before it stopped, but
for the rest there was nothing left to do
but wait while the men, unencumbered
with skirts and petticoats, jumped in
and got good seats.
"Not only do the men steal all the
seats" remarked the conductor, "but
they never think of offering woman a
seat. Street-car etiquette sort Of half
compels man not to allow lady to
stand, but in a stesm car she gets seat
only when she is able to fight for it.
Some one will get KILLED jumping on
those cars some day, and then perhaps
you will see change in things. Women
have no divine rights to seats / suppose,
but they ought to be allowed fair start
in the race" Boston Globe.

Moody,s Goodness.

Evangelist d. l.. Moody went down
into the slums of Chicago to preach to an
audience of people never seen inside Of
the churches. After the services he was
the center of scene. Half a dozen
young men, half drunk and noisy, waited
at the foot of the stairs They insulted
the young women who came out and
they tripped up the young men. They
were evidently preparing to have some
rough sport with Mr.. Moody, for when
he appeared at the door they crowded
around him and jostled him off the lower
step.
He saw the danger and averted it
neatly. He was carrying his overcoat on
his arm. Picking out the biggest and
toughest of the crowd, he said: won't
you please help me ON with this coat?
I'm getting little old and stout" The
bad young man was unneryed. He red
dened, and stepped back. Mr.. Moody
held out his arms appealingly, and the
young man weakened. Muttering some
thing that sounded like an oath he hoisted
the coat on to the broad shoulders. 81
knew you'd do it. Thank you" laughed
Mr.. Moody; and he walked briskly down
the street, leaving disorganized gang
of hoodlums in the shadow of the build

Eslsimo Dogs.

During his wonderful sledge journey
from Hudson bay to the Arctic ocean,
Frederick Schwatka had abundant op-
portunity to learn the habits and the
disposition of the Eskimo dog. He
started out with sixty of them, using
them to draw the sledges, and only
nineteen We're alive when he returned
to Hudson bay. The others had died,
mostly Of starvation. He says:
"They were through all this horrible
time perfect respecters of their human
allies, and the little children used to &c
among them and play with them by
pelting them over the back with their
toy whips; and yet the same dogs were
starving, and should one of them die his
comrades would eat him. I notice this
particularly, as some sensational writers
have tried to make their readers believe
that the Eskimo dogs are liable to be.
come dangerous fellows. even TO a
powerfully built man, when simply
hungry, and to be worse than wild
beasto when ravenous. Any onslaught
of Eskimo dogs is unknown among the
northern natives where travelled,
ut was pitiable in the extreme to see
their sufferings as they SO devotedly
helped us along, many of them up till
the very minute they had to be taken
from the harness and abandoned ON the
road. As they dropped out along the
way, we harnessed ourselves in their
places to the sledge traces, and it was
thus we were not compelled to leave
important parts of our load.
