A STORMY NIGHT.

Tuesday night fearful wind and rain
storm prevailed here, accompanied with
incessant flashes o. lightning, fearful and
binding. Peal after peal Of thunder made
the earth tremble and houses shake, while
the rain fell in torrents 1t was a fearful
night, and to add to its horror, the fire
alarm sounded about quarter to twelve.
The lightning bad played sad havoc with
the telephone lines, and the electric cur
rent ran into the central Office box and
set it on fire. But for timely discovery the
McClatchey building in which It'll located,
would doubtless have been destroyed,
but bucket of water thrown upon it soon
extingushed the blaze. The Postal Tele-
graph and the M. & N. Ga. r. r. tele
graph instruments were burned out by the
electricity, and also burnt the brushes on
the electric dynamo at the electric light
station. Lightning struck Mr. A. NJ.

HOME PRIDE. @ i
-FOUR OWN SECTION THE BEST IN
THE WORLD.
--g1

There is no one sentiment, which
becoming prevalent among and made
the motto Of the people Of d town,
city, county or State, will so much
tend to growth in population and
wealth, as an intense home pride; a
firm and unfinching opinion that
that section, which is their bone,
taken all in all is the best country
on the face Of the earth, ndthat the
gifts which God has bestowed upon
them are at least equally as good if
not some better than those enjoyed
by other sections, says the Grades
man" In looking through the world
with an impartial eye the observer
cannot fail to recognize the fact that
there is ever character of equali-
cation, the blessings which one
region has may not exist in another.
but there is some compromising adj
vantage. One section may be bless
ed with a wonderfully fertile soil,
but its air in the sultry months of
summer becomes laden with malaria,
and the water of its streams stands
in sluggish pools, ana that for use
OF man and beast comes from the
earth with queer taste and sicken
ingly warm. In another section the
dwellers there may sigh for the rich
black bottoms on which to grow
their corn and cotton, but around
their homes never floats a germ of
malaria, and the pure cool water
comes up from its beds sparkling and
bright as if 'twere liquid chrystal.
There is compensation in all things,
and while by reason OF neglect OF
their own vicious habits some NAV
not have used or improved the op-
portunities at their command, vel
those advantages are none the less
there, and in all communities may
be found those who have, improved
them, some to greater, some to a
less extent. WOO s. |p9a8 ~
No one can ever attain the great
est excellence in any line of work or
business by living within himself,
but he can reach that goal by ever
applying to his own surroundings the
lessons which he learns in tours of
observation in other sections. 1t is
we'll to recognize the advantages of
others and to carefully measure their
resources and strength, but no man
or set Of men will ever succeed in
any line without perfect confidence
in himself or themselves, in the
section where they live, and the
means placed within their reach for
the accomplishment Of any ends de-
sired. Carried to very great ex-
tent, this may be called selfshness
or egotism, and so it is in certain
sense, but properly balanced it il
simply commendable and very de-
sirable home pride. 301Je}t
Money invested here at home,
even in enterprises which fail, re-
turns to our merchants in the pur-
chase of groceries, hardware and
dry goods; to the farmer for his grain
and meat, to the mechanic for his
labor. Every dollar sent out of the
State or the South makes us poorer;
every dollar kept in it and put to
work actively, makes us day by day
and year by year richer and more
independent. Invest your money
at home and you can watch it; in
vest your money at home and that
will aid in building up towns and
increase the value of now unused
land, thereby lessening your taxes.
