One Touch Of Nature.

The Editor Of the Billville
(Ga Banner states his griey-
ance with less elegance, per-
haps, than some, but with as
much force as any. He labored
with the same burden that has
fallen on many others, and
seems to speak from the bottom
of a very full heart. He says:
"A paper cannot live where a
town council sticks its notices
on d china tree and the mer-
chants do their advertising on
paper sacks. Some of them say
it does not pay to advertise.
Why didn't they say 50 before
we planted the Banner in this
cussed one horse town. Here
we are with $500 worth of fine
printing material and not busi-
ness enough to furnish grub TO
a grasshopper. Guess we'd
never settle at another water
tank with a lot of ignorant peo
pie. Unless we get some new
advertisements this week the
paper goes up the spout, and we
shall leave this God-forsaken,
measler town and open bar at
Drunkard's Gulch and get rich

The Atlanta Constitution says
that from time TO time people in
this country receive letters, cir
culars or advertisements lead
ing tqem to believe that they
are heirs to large sums of mon
ey or vast estates in England,
They are induced TO pay agents
fees in advance to look after
their claims, and after living in
expectation ormonths or years,
their hopes are disappointed,
and they realize tnat they have
been swindled.
The other day a man who has
made his living out of these
credulous American dupes for a
long time committed suicide at
a hotel in London. His name
was George Il. Parker, alias
Hamilton. In 1887 this mans
British-American Claim A.
gency" in New York was brok
en- up by the police rs a fraudu-
lent concern, and Parker was
indicted. but as mis- victims lived
at d distance they did not appear
70 testify against him, and he es-
capped pun shment. His scheme
was 10 correspond with persons,
pretending that lie had discov-
cred estates waiting for them in
England. After getting them
interested he would collect a fee
in advance, and that would be
the end Of it. Ii is said that he
had fully $4,000 dupes.
This sSindle has been very
successfully worked many times
IN the United States. Thousands
of our people have a vague inn
preston that there ought to be
unclaimed money coming to
them in England, and it is an
easy matter to make them be
lieve that by furnishing proof
OF their descent from some Eng
lish family they will be able to
secure their inheritance. This
was the game Parker played,
and for nearly a half genera
ton he did a large business and
rolled in wealth.

what Is more, you can depend
on what you buy to be what
you call for. They are courte
Gus, honest and sell for fair pro-

good treatment when dealing

patronage, instead of giring il
TO men who never get a dollars
worth of work done in your
town, who refuse TO contribute
a cent TO any enterprise, social
or public, and who care not a

Musical Gas Machine.

The musical gas machine,
called the pysophone, seems to
have attracted much attention
abroad. Its comprss is three
octayos, and it has a keyboard,
being played in the same man
neras IN organ. There are thir-
ty-seyen glass tubes, in which a
like set of gas jets burn, and
these jets, placed in a circle,
contract and expand. When
the small burners separate the
sound is produced; when they
close together the sound ceases.
The tone depends on the mum
ber of burers and the size of the
tubes in which they burn: 50
that by careful arrangementaud
selection all the notes of the
musical scale may be produced
in several ocravos. Some Of the
glass tubes in which the jets
burn are nearly eleven feet
long.

TnE New York Morning Ad-

The New York Morning Ad-
vertiser asserts that some statis-
tician figures it out that the
bald-headed man, with no hair
TO cut and shampoo, makes a
clear gain of s. a year. This
arithmetic may be all right, and
yet the bald-headed man is a
great loser, besides having lost
mis- hair. Remember how many
years the bald-headed man ex-
perimented with restoratives
which did not restore, with
balms which had no balm for
him, with salves which did not
save. all costing large sums Of
money, and then it will be ap-
parent that the paltry - which
he saves Is as nothing compared
to the oceans Of money he
sauandered in trying to save
his hair. When the statistician
scatters his figures about with
a view to consOling the large
and hairless class, he should be
sure that he is not going to rake
up financial matters which are
likely 10 cause pain.

The New York Press says that

made by Jews exiled from Rus

these prosecuted beings are lit

ed to leave Russia, even after
they have been notified officially
that they must flee the country.
The story Of oac young man
is like the story Of the others.
He lived at Riga, where he
worked at his trade, but lost his
position through what is known
as "official interference" which
is the order Of the Russian Of
ficials not to give work to jew.
When he was discharged he had
saved about $29, besides sup
por&ng his aged mother He
was ordered to leave Riga, and
went to Dinneberg, his mother's
home, where he found work
again, but lost it from further
'official interference He was
ordered to leave Dinneberg. He
and his mother got together S3l
with which he determined to
come to America, buta at the Ger
man frontier the Russian offici-
ais demanded Of him $4S for an
internationl passport. He had
no such sum, and tried 10 get
across the frontier without its
payment, when he was captur
ed, stripped of his little store Of
money and all his possessions,
thrown into prison and pue IN q
chain gang. He was helpedout
of prison and to this country by
a Hebrew relief association.
His case is an illustration OF
the general line Of opert ions
Of the Russian officials with the
Jews who are ordered out of

enough to make the whole world
