OLD BUT GOOD.

With the immortal Stoneyall
Jackson, says the Alabama Soldier,
struggling, especially during a for
ward march, was an objectionable
offence; but there was one instance
in which it was promptly condoned.
During one of the forced marches,
along in the summer '62, through
the pine and 'simmon regions, he
stopped to consult with some general
officer till the whole command had
passed some distance. Riding for,
ward to the front he discovered a
private of his old brigade up sim.
mon tree.
''What are you doing so far in the
rear?" cried the general.
"I'm eating simmons" said the
soldier.
"Why, they're not ripe" said the
General, with some sarcasm.
II know it," said the soldier. 81
want 'em green"
"Why do you eat green persim-
mons 2" said old Blue Light.
''To draw my stomach up to fit my
rations," said old Web Foot.
Enough! The hero drew the old
SLOUGH cap down over his eyes and
rode on, abashed and subdued into
silence.

WAITING, ONLY WAITING.

Somehow or other, he got into the
back yard of a house on Riopelle
street, and he found the mistress of
it working in the kitchen.
Good morning." he said, looking
through the window, 81 have with
me some very useful and novel
household articles, madam, which
I'd like to show you"
swell, I don't want them," she
snapped, "and ! haven't got time to
look at them if / did"
''But, madam"
81 tell you Pm too busy to look at
Them" she interrupted.
"But, madam" he persisted, 81
can sit down in the shade here in
the yard and wait until you are not
busy"
"Oh, can ou?'' she inquired sar-
castically.
Certainly, ma'am," he answered.
''I'm in no very great hurry. I
suppose you don't care if sit down
to wait, do you?" he said, with be-
coming humility.
"No, l don't; and, what's more,
don't care to tell you, if you are 60
ing to wait in that back YARD till I'm
not busy, you'd better get ninety
nine year lease on the premises,
with the privilege of renewal, and
make some arrangements for shelter,
because the winters in this section
get pretty raw for man sitting in
the shade with nothing to do but
wait till | amt busy"
BY the time she had finished her
speech the peddler had packed up
and departed.

A LECTURE TO LOVERS.
Good Advice to Boys and Girls Who
Are in Love or Expect to Be.

Jereme X. Jerome, the English
essayist and bumorist, delivers this
interesting lecture to lovers and
those contemplating love:
ooh, you foolish, foolish little
maidens, with your heads full of
unwisdcm, how often, oh, how often
are you to be warned that it is not
always the sweetest thing in lovers
that is the best material to make a
good-wearing husband out of? The
lover signing like furnace will
not go on signing like furnace
forever. That furnace will go out.
He will become the husband full
of strange oaths, jealous in honor
sudden and quick in quarrel, and
grow into the lean and slippered
pantaloon.' How will he wear ?
There will be no changing if he
does not suit, no sending him back
to be altered, no having him let
out bit where he is too tight and
hurts, you, no having him taken in
where he is too loose, no laying him
by when the cold comes to wrap
yourself up in something warmer.
As he is when you select him, so he
will have to last you all your life,
through all changes, through all
seasons"

somewhere In q legeD0, legend OF old,
We are told OF warrior, brave and bold,
And of an Indian maiden, a maiden fair
With symmetrical form and raven hair.
Marietta was her name, his name Kennesaw
She was one to love, he was one to war;
AS loyal lovers as you chance to meet,
On county road or crowded street
But the course of true love never runs
smooth,
As the tragic end of these lovers will prove :;
Without either fathers or mothers consent
She left her home and to Kennesaw went.
The Cherokee Chief, maddenei beyond
measure,
Because Marietta hadn't consulted his
pleasure,
Besides, Kennesaw's father was decidedly
cool,
And once unprovokedh had called himla fool.
To be thus by those so easily outwitted,
Against whom he had often in battle been
pitted,
Filled his noble soul with ire most sublime.
And, nursing his wrath warmly, abided his
time
But the young brave having the bird in his
trap,
Commenced to devise means to prevent a
mishap;
So he pitched his wigwam near a bright
fountain,
Sequestered and shaded as it came from the
mountain
Secluded and safe we can dwell here tor
years,
Were the words with which he Quoted his
loves fears;
Hunt US as they may or hunt us they may
not
But they nee will find us in this quiet grot."
The fondest of our hopes are rarely fulfilled,
Often in the bud they are sure to be killed,
And the castles that we build, if highly
erected,
The crash that topples him is most unex>
pected.
One evening as KeDnesaw returned from
the chase,
Approaching his wigwam he quickened his
pace,
His heartwas warming for his dear Marietta,
None in the wide world could he ever love
better.
She espied him coming, as he quicker
his pace,
And ran toward him for the loving embrace:
They met and he clasped her in his brawny
right arm,
Needless of the danger unconscious Of the
near harm.
But an arrow is drawn full length to its
head,
And quickly that arrow OIL its mission is
sped,
The life blood of two hearts are flowing in
pain,
But in the new hunting ground they'll be
happy again.
To prove this legend there is no evidence
conclusive,
And the evidence to some may seem very
delusive,
But Kennesaw we see every day with our
eyes,
And close at his feet there Marietta lies.

+ The Ladies Parsonage Aid Society will
hold their monthly meeting, this Thursday
afternoon at the Methodist parsonage, at 4
o'clock.
Rev. Mr.. Burrow, is a member Of the
Hclston Conference and is closing his
fourth year at Athens, Tenn. He has been
in the pastorate six years, entering the
ministry in his oath year. The two first
years he was stationed in Chattanooga.
His very youthful appearance looking the
beardless boy of II or Is years of age, ex-
cites sympathy and interest, from the mos
ment the nearer looks upon him. No one
hears him many moments before the con-
viction is fixed thing, that tho youthful
in face and slight and womanly in ply
siQue, he is full grown, strong man in
pulpit or on platform. There are but few
of his or any other church, of his age. that
gives such promise of usefulness to the
world.
We find the following special in the Sun

The Sam Jones tabernacle meeting will

in the country will be present and take a
part in the meetings. 1t is predicted on
all sides that this will be the best meeting
ever held in Gainesville, and that the
crowds will be large. Everything is being
done that can add to the comfort of those
who attend.
THE members ofthe Presbyterian Church
are requested to be present at the service
Sunday morning, as an important matter
will come up for consideration at the close
of thesmeeting.
The Presbyterian and Baptist churches
took in their prayer meeting services last
Wednesday night on account of the pro-
tracted meeting at the Methodist church
1t was the right thing to do and we thank
them Tor the cause represented.
Rev. ]. H. Patton, of Jacksonville, Ala
preached both morning and night at the
Presbyterian Church, last Sunday. He
made fine impression upon those who
heard his strong and able sermons His
style is clear forcble and earnest. He is
easy in delivery and holds the attention of
his hearers from beginning to end. Our
people were we'll pleased to have him visit
our city.

DOES EDUCATION PAY /?
The Advantage an Educated Man Has.

Two thousand years ago our an
cestors were savage in the forests
Of Northern Europe. We differ
from them only in this, that we are
educated. There are many in our
midst who are as ignorant aud uned-
ucated as were our ancestors. And
all that keep them from being saw
ages is the saving influence of the
educated people in the community
in which they live. II there is any
gain in being civilized man there
is gain in being educated. An edu-
Gated man is OF more value in any
walk Of life than hundred igno-
rant men. It is better to be an
educated and wise and poor, than 20
be rich and ignorant. A true edu.
cation is kind of wealth that cannot
be estimated. The education and
training of a dozen of the leaders in
the civil war was of far greater val
ue to the country than all the mon
ey OF thousand of the richest men.
Money is Of no value except as it is
made valuable By education. Pow
erty does follow not education but
brings wealth of soul.
Let US take a man who can read
and write fairly we'll, but one who
does not read o newspaper or book,
Let him begin work at Fl years and
work until he is 81 years old. The
average man will not earn more than
$500 a year. That is nearly 81 q
day for working daye. Some d
tina: class will by industry anG
frugality earn more, but many will
earn less. We are taking the aver.
age man. His earnings will amount
to $4,000. Out of this be must pay
family expenses. Old age finds him
as poor as he ever was.
Let young man of ordinary tai
ent start to school at21 years. He
attends school four years and gets a
good education. He spends two
years learning profession or a
business. He begins his life work
at q years and has thirty-four
years to work before he is 81 years,
such man will earn 81, 200 a year,
some will earn less but many will
earn more. His earnings will in
thirty-four years amount to $40, Goo
Out of that he must pay his school
expenses which were $3.50 a year OF
$500. He will pay also his family
expenses the same as the uneduca,
ted man that is $4,000. Deductin,
$4,000 from s40,8O0 leaves hin
S27, 900. The interest on this money
at 4 per cent, amounts to ST, lit
which will give him a comfortable
living for the rest of his days. The
ignorant man is worn out at 81 anC
cannot earn anything. The edu'
Gated man will be able to work ten
years longer and earn more money
than during any previous ten years,
The difference in these two men
was only that six years in schooling.
Both have worked hard. The ig>
norant one never knew what true
happiness was. The educated one
has had happy and useful life and
goes to his grave in peace. Had he
not educated himself he would not
have had the 1000, therefore he
must have earned that amount in the
six years. This amounts to S4,95C
in one year, or s495 a month, or SIG
day.

A Million Dollar Blaze.

Tuesday morning the city of jackson
vile, Florida, was visited by destruc-
tive fire, which destroyed fifty five bust
ness and residence houses and entailed
loss of over million dollars. The path
of the smouldering ruins is six blocks
long and two blocks wide. It caught in
Knight & Co.'S grocery adjoining the
large Hubbard building and in a very
short time the block was mass of
flames. Thence they carried diagonally
across to the fremont hotel and thence
to the Burbridge block. The FIRE spread
on all sides, being famed by a stiff
breeze. Nothing could stay the flames
until exhausted for want Of matar;a,
They were stopped at Beaver street on
the north, at Laura street on the west.
and at Ocean street on the east From
the Hubbard block the fire jumped
across the street to the Smith building
ana the Mather building. In the Smith
building was large amount of dvna-
mite stored. This exploded and started
nres away to the northwest. The sound
was not heard but the effect OF tae ex-
was seen 80 miles away. In the
ci'y the effect was stunning. Men fell
N the streets and many were injured.
The plate glass for four or five squares
was shattered and the sidewalks covered

PennsYlvania Republicans.

The republican state convention Ct
Pennsylvania met at Harrisburg We'd
nesday. The portion of the speech of
Temporary Chairman Hall referring to
James G. Blaine as "that republican of
republicans; that leader of leaders," was
vocferously cheered. The platform
adopted heartily endorses the admins
tratlon of President Harrison and of
Postmaster General Wanamaker and ap
proves the course of the republicans in
the last congress, especially in the pass
age of the Mckinley bill. In regard to
Blaine the resolutions declare: "In
view of his magnificent achievements in
diplomacy and statecraft we earnestly
hope the republican national conven
ton of 1892 may place him in unani-
nous nomination for the presidency,
which nomination we feel assured will
be followed by the triumphant election
of James G.. Blaine of Pennsylvania and
Maine" Bimetallism, SO regulated as to
allow the free coinage OF all the gold and
silver produced from American mines
and SO guarded by tariff duties as to
protect the country and it's currency
from debasement, was also favored. De-
votion to the welfare of the union sol
diers was reaffirmed. The platform de-
nounces the INSCRIPTIONS partisanship
of Governor Pattison in vetoing the ap-
pointment bill passed by republican
legislature and in negativing other legis-
lation, particularly the compulsory edu
cation bill. Such amendments to the
law were favored as will absolutely pre-
vent the use of all public funds for the
personal benefit of public officials.
