Gunpowder was invented so long ago

in China some centuries before the
Christian era. The making of tin plate
vessels, and their use as receptacles for
gunpowder, has been going on for long
time. And yet we have powder works

There was a serious'stabbing affair at Lii
| thonia Monday night. The principals to the
affrav wore Clarence Veaable and Robert
Jason Venable and Jason are both en-
ployed by the Venable Granite Company.
The row started in pool room over a
sighting remark made by Venable concern
ing friend Of Jason. Venable made a pass
/ to strike Jason, whereupon the latter drew
a knife and stabbed his assailsnt in the
back of the neck. Bystanders attempted to
drag the men apart. but Jason olung tena>
ciously to Venable and wrenched the knife
from side to side and downward, 10 all ap-
pearances determined to kill his victim.
An examination of the wound, however,
showed that while it was serious one it
was not necessarily fatal An artery vas
severed and one or two minor cords cut.
The wound was dressed, and Venable is
resting quite easily. Jason took TO the
woods and escaped.

ager or the Atlanta Office Of the Western
Union Telegraph Company. He decided
on taking this step several days ago and
notified Division Superintendent Stephens,
but no action was taken, as Supt Stephens
was called to Mobile on business. As soon
as he returned 20 Atlanta the managers
resignation will take effect. DIR. Murray
will assume his old position as night chief.
He resigned the position OF manager be-
cause there was two much work and too
little pay. When he was night chief
his hours at the telegraph Office were
from 5 to IL 80 .. m. This
gave ample opportunity to practice
medicine during the day. From his prac-
tice he derived considerable revenue, both
from regular patrons and number Of life
insurance orders, for which he was medical
examiner. When he was appointed manager
the cashier was removed and he has to devote
his entire time to the company's business
Besides, many Of those who employed him
as physician have been pressing him to
continue practicing In their families. Al
together Dr. Murray came to the conclusion
that he could do more for himself in every
way by resigning as manager and assuming
his old position as night chief. 1t is thought
that Charles c. Witt will be his successor.

A ROY ON A FARM.

It is quite likely that no country boy needs to be told about the life of boy on a farm, but he may more truly realize his own importance by reading what Charles Dudley Warner says about him.
 Ut is my impression, says MT. Warner, "that farm without boy would soon come to grief. What boy does is the life of the farm. He is the factotum, all ways ill demand and always expected to do the thousand and one things that nobody else will do. Upon him fall the odds and ends, the most difficult things. After ev- rybody else is through he is to finish up. His work is like woman's-perpetually waiting on others. Every body knows how much easier it is to cook good dinner than to wash the dishes afterward.
 ''Corsider what boy on farm is re- quired to do-things that must be done, or life would actually stop. It is under stood in the first place that he is 10 do all the errands, to go to the store, to the pos office, and to carry all sorts of messages. If he had as many feet as the centipede they would tire before night.
 'He is the one who spreads the grass as the en cut it; he slows it away ill the barn he rides the horse to cultivate the corn up and down the hot. weary rows he brings wood and water and splits kin ding; he gets up the horse and turns out the horse. Whether he'is in the house ol out of the house there is always something to do. Just before school in the winter ht shovels paths, and in the summer he turnl the grlndstone.
 'And yet, with his mind full of schemel of what he would like to do, and his hands full of occupation, he is an idle boy wht has nothing to busy himself with b, schools and chores. He would gladly d. all the work if somebody else would do al the chores, he thinks, and yet I doubt any boy ever amounted to anything in tn world or was of much use as Q man wl did not epjoy the advantages of ibers education in the way of chores.'

An easy trick is that of discovering a given cald. Que method of doing it is to deal the cards into three packs, face up ward, and request a spectator to note Il card and remember in which heap it is. Wien you have dealt twenty one cards throw the rest aside, these not being re- quired in the trick. Ask in which heap the chosen card is, and placing that heap between the other two deal again as be- fore. Again ask the question, place the heap indicated i'll the middle, and deal again third time. Note particularly the fourth or middle card of each heap, as one of those three cards will be the card ,hought of. Ask for the last time in which heap the chosen card now is, when you may be certain that it is the card which you noted as being the middle card of that heap. This same result can be produced with any nnmber of cards, so long as such number is odd and multiple of three. | The middle card in the last heap indicated will always be the chosen card.
 Stale Treasurer Burnite, one of the largest growers in Delaware, in speaking of the coming crop, said ''I look upon Delawares coming peach yield to be the best that we have have had for years. It will be great boon to our people after the ill luck that has attended our crops for the past two years. Last year not only did we have the smallest peach crop on record, but our berries were very scarce. All over this section of the country the farmers are in the best of spirits over the outlook. The only thing that is to be feared is very severe cold snap in the latter end of this or next month.

is the poison of the rattlesnake, which the

is often used in treating yellow fever as
well as other ailments. The doctor said
the first of this poison was one drop
brought by distinguished homeopathic
from Assam. The fang OF the reptile was
then thoroughly titurated, when the sugar
of milk was increased many thousand fold.
This single drop of snake poison was used
by the whole homeopathic fraternity for

PATHS FRS. Performance.

/ met teacher of music last night who
knew Adelne Patti when she was twelve
years old.
"She was not beauty then and did not
promise to be one" said the teacher.
"She was tall for her age-as tail as she is
now-and ungainly. Her face was long
and sallow, with no fine features about it,
but pair of fine eyes. And yet there
was an attraction about the girl and her
manner was pleasant. She seemed en-
tirely subservient TO Maurice Strakosch,
who married her eldest sister Amelia.
Gle used to speak very freely OF her
and before her. saying that he intended to
make her the greatest prima donna that
the world had ever seen; that he knew
she was not handsome, but time would
correct that; in this connection he used
to instance the case of Persiana, who was
once, they say, the greatest singer and the
uglIest woman in Europe"
Speakingo of PATHS debut in Tripler hall,

Adelina accompanied herself on the piano
and made success enough for an encore.
She then caused general laugh by get
ting up from the piano and clapping her
hands as heartily as any one in the house,

THE DEADLY OPEN CAR.
Some Remarks by "a Physician That the
Public Might Well Heed.

"a very frequent cause of illness and
death in this city," said a prominent
physician to me the other night, as the
open street care. In the middle of the
summer they are ali very we'll during the
daytime, but at night they are more dan
gerOus to life than mild smallpox cpl
demic. The man who can ride in an open
car at night, no matter how he is dressed
or how robust he may be, and not take
cold is very rare individual. This year,
owing to the early spring, the open cars
were inflicted on us much ahead of the
usual time. OF course, cold days succeed
ed and the cars were still kept on and, I'M
fortunately, we'll patronized.
ITO this fact trace great many of the
grip cases about which there has been so
much complaint during the past month.
The worst feature of the case is that, no
matter how cold the day or how raw
the night air, the public insist on riding
in the open cars if there are any on the
road. New Workers seem TO have an un-
conquerable weakness for them.
'In my opinion" he concluded, at is
almost criminal to allow the use of open
cars in this city where the atmospheric
changes are so marked and so sudden"
