Decline and FAN of tho Once Mob Art Of
Leading the Future.
In ancient times every monarch and
prince, great or little, kept his sooth-
savers. or at least had recourse to some
person who pretended to read the
future in the stars or somewhere else.
We have still persons who assume to
be able to foretell the future. but the
great different between past ages and
the present in this regard is that then
the great and often wise men of the
earth believed in the soothsayerS.
while now only the foolish and feeble
have any confidence in them.
The decline in the credit and honor
of sOothsaying dates in 4 considerable
measure. perhaps. from 4 certain per-
Torrance of John Galeazzo. duke of
Milan. He. too. had soothsayer.
One day the reader of the stars came to
him and said:
My lord. make haste to arrange
your earthly affairs"
And why shall do that?" asked
the duke.
Because the stars tell me that you
have not long to live"
'Indeed. And what do the stars tell
you about your own lease of life"
asked Duke John.
They promise me many years more
of life
''They do?"
$50 have read them. my lord"
"Well. them" said the duke. lit ap
pears that the stars know very little
about these things. for You will be
hanged within half an hour
He sent the soothsayer to the gall
lows with promptness and lived many
years aftcrward himself. Star-reading
fell into disuse in Milan from that
time.-Youth's Companion.

they went little further up the cliff
then they followed a narrow winding
path which brought them to the shore
below. Here Matt, who seemed to be
pretty well grounded in the history of
the place. pointed him out the wonders
of the coast. She showed him the
caves, which tradition said had been
formerly used as wreckers' haunts and
treasure stores, but which were now
washed by the sea, and covered with
Shiny weeds: then she brought him to
a promontory where they told her she

They made their way back along the
coast until they reached William Jones'
cottage. Here they paused. principal

THE BOSTON AND ALBANY.
Two Receivers After One Road in
Southwest Gecreia.


A bill was filed in the United States
court here yesterday by Phineas G. Nc
Lean and John p. Sheppard, through
their attorneys, Charlton, Mackall &
Anderson, against the Boston and Albany
railroad, which runs from Pidcocx in
Brooks county TO MOultrie in Colquitt
county, distance of about fifty-five miles.
The road was originally built as a tram
way BY the Quitman Lumber Company
for the purpose of hauling lumber, but
later grew 10 larger proportions and was
pun under special charter, and the stock
was intended to be divided out among the
stockholders of the Quitman Lumber
| Company, of which the above complain
ants are members. The complainants,
however, aver that they did not
get their pro rata of the stock or any of
IL at all IN fact, and that is why they
fled their bill
They 60 on to claim that President
John n. Pidcock of the Boston and AL
bany and his board of directors have
managed the property in their own inter-
est and have failed to issue the stock to
the stockholders of the Quitman Lumber
Company, as was agreed upon. They ac-
cuse President Pidcock of fraudulent
management of the property; of mort
gag1ng it for his own benefit; of misap-
| preparation of the funds of the road, and
of using the board of directors as tool to
effect his alleged fraudulent schemes.
They also accuse him of having tenn
porary receiver appointed on a bill
/ brought by New Jersey
firm, in which he was fnan-
cially interested, in the state court
of Brooks county, and they charge that
that receiver is now operating the road in
his interest.
In other words, they accuse President
Pldcock of all sorts of fraudulent man
agcmcnt and asked Judge Speerfor tenn
porary injunction restraining him from a
| further waste of the funds of the road, or
from running it in his own interest. They
also asked for a temporary receiver to be
appointed by the United States court.
Judge Speer granted the injunction and
appointed United States Marshal Frank
Leyerett of Eatonton as temporary re-
ceiver. He will set day for the hearing
of the case in Macon.
Marshal Leyerett was in the city yes
terday morning, and after the order was
filed he left at once for Quitman to make
a demand for the road. II is already in
the hands of the receiver of the state
court, and it will be interesting to see how
far the mandates of the United States
| court will be obeyed. Marshal Leverett
will make a strong effort to get the road,
| and before the fight is over he is liable to
succeed
