Charlie Finch: Kansas is going to
have about one-fOurth as much corn as
she had last year. AS the price is 60
ing to be at least four times as high as
it was then it looks as though the Kan
sas farmer is going to be ahead just
about the price of the husking.

farmers to be iouud anywhere than
those of Terrell county.
Every day abundant evidence of
this may be seen.
AT any time some of them may
re seen on the streets of the city
selling produce rom their wagons
A large majority of them make
from ten to fifteen bales of cotton
per plow, and plenty of corn, meat,
ETC., to supply theil farms; and We
can name a number of farmers in
tile county who make twenty bales
to the pillow, besides plentiful crops
OF corn and other things. Taken
as a whole the farmers Of Terrell
are as intelligent, cnterprising and
successful as any in Georgia.

A MO0NSHINE BOYCOTT.
Twelve Men in RabUH County That Cunt
Drink WhIskey.

One CT the queerest bOycotts Oh
record is that of twelve men in
Tennessee valley, Rabun county,
by their moonsh;ne neighbors.
There is plenty of whisky in Ra
bun-enough,s so tradition goes, fol
thirty or forty counties as large as
Rubun-and amongst those rough
but generous>hearted neighbors, a
jug of it can be had for the asking.
There are twelve men there,
though that can't beg or buy one
drop of it.
If they ever get any they get it
outside of Rabun county.
The boycott was brought about
in this way; several months ago
these twelve men signed a petition
asking that the distilleries in RAJ
bun county be broker up, reciting
a number OF casualties due to whis.
ky, and parading ths distilleries
as a heinous, pernicious immoral
factor.
1t was all done very quietly, and
not one of the twelve expected to
hear Of it again.
Somehow or other their neigh
bOrs heard of it. 1t was proved
up on them, and the boycott was
instituted in revenge.
No violence was done. 1t was
tie general understanding that the
twelve men were to be dealt with
as of old, except that upon NJ
terms were they to be furnished
with whiskey. The compact has
been adhered to religiously.
The boycotted men 90 TO tn,
social gatherings and to church and
are treated kindly. But when thC
whiskey is passed around they
must watch it drank in silence. Oh
they must leave. They gamble
with the others, tell stories, sNaT
mules, interchange neighbOrly
courtesies-but no whiskey.
They cant buy it. They can
beg it. They are afraid to make
it, for they would be watched and
informed upon by their neighbors
The singular boycott shows NJ
sign of weakening. The twelve
men have protested repentance
sworn allegiance, done everything
that the most exacting or cautious
could demand of them, but the
boycott is still on.

Rev. Il, w, Davis.

Rev. B. w. Davis, the former
well-beloved pastor OF the
Baptist church in this city, occu-
pies a warm spot in the affections
of our people. The following, from
the Shellman correspondent Of the
Cuthbert Liberal, will be read with
interest by his old charge here:
1.-THE sermon of Rev. B. w. Da>
Wis on last Sunday was one of the
few sermons to which we have ev-
er listened that did not present a
puzzle-picture appearance, with
the head of the preacher as the
prominent character when viewed
from a certain position and with a
particular light falling on it. In
the first place it was a striking
picture painted on a new piece OF
canvass, by an artist hand with a
back ground of pure gospel truth
without single phantom line that
would suggest the features of the
preacher. In the second place, his
painting of the perplexities envel'
oping the business man in his efforts
to live a christian life was graphic
and true, and taught to his hearers
that this class of men often deserve
sympathy instead of the censure
they so frequently get. His touch
es on dancing were the incest, as
well as the most sensible and true
we have ever heard from the pull
pit. Taking it all in all, it wa
one Of the most common-sense
practical and hastily delivered ser
mons to which we have ever list
ened."

Four years ago he tell i'll of an
incurable disease, and his physician
warned Lin that only radical
change from his gay mode of life
could hinder for short time the
pro ress of the malady. The
young professor answered quietly
that he would die as u philosopher
should die, without an effort to de,
fer his last day. He ate, drank.
studied, lectured aud danced ex-
actly as he did before the doctor
warned him. A few weeks ago he
lay down on his death bed. He
read the same books and talked OF
the same frivolous amusemeuts as
usual up to one evening about three
weeks ago. At So'clock the doc.
