Georgia's Profits from Fruits.

The Georgia fruit crop is big thing
this year, and everybody is interested in
knowing what the growers will make
out of it. In the peach and grape crops
alone conservative estimates show that
about 500 carloads of peaches and 100
carloads of grapes will leave the state
for foreign markets during the present
season. The estimated receipts for the
peach and grape crops combined are
$780,
Reports show that the peaches are
well formed, of good size and perfectly
sound, and this, together with the de-
crease in yield from last year, makes
good prices and ready sales an assured
fact. Other important fruit crops will
largely swell the total sales, and lots of
summer money will be put in circula-
ton where it will do good.

A Gaudy Uniform.

Warden Aull has adopted novel
method of keeping track of such con-
victs as are continually planning to es-
cape. Thursday morning he surprised
three of the most incorrigible by
dressing them up with flaming red
flannel blouse and cap. Across the
back of the blouse in plain view is
broad white strip of canvas marked in
large, plain letters, Convict No. ="
The pants are the regulation stripes. 1t
was great surprise to the convicts.
AS they marched to the canal they
were subjected to great deal of raillery.
The warden says these three have kept
the officers and guards busy for some
time trying to keep run of them. With
these suits on they can be easily watched
from the various posts and their every
movement noted. All who attempt tn
escape hereafter will be treated in like
manner.-Folsom (Cal) Telegraph.

Killed by a Skyrocket.

An impromptu celebration that was
held in honor of the arrival of a delega-
ton of Turner's from Freeport, Ills, was
suddenly brought to close by the al
most instant killing Of man. A sky
rocket, supposed to have been set off by
a crowd of young boys, penetrated his
forehead, and part Of the stick was
broken off and left imbedded in his
brain.
AS the procession reached the corner
of Blue Island avenue and Polk street
Philip Knopp, who had been watching
the parade from the sidewalk, was struck
by a skyrocket. The mans head and
face were covered with blood, and
Officer Halle, calling assistance, carried
him into a neighboring drugstore. DIR.
Lahey was summoned, and Knopp was
sent at once to the county hospital. On
the way DR.. Lahey extracted part Of the
stick, eight inches in length and three
eighths of an inch square. 1t had en-
tered just above the right eye, and had
gone through the brain until the end
was blunted against the back Of the
skull. Knopp lived only a few moments.

Maltese cat. Early in the spring the cat
deserted his place in the house and took
up his abode with the chickens, remain

her species had arrived, selected a nest
in the poultry. house and made known
her intentions in the usual way. She
was at once supplied with the necessary
eggs and commenced business. This, it
was supposed, would end the rather
strange Irritation and Tommy would re-

A number or cattle were landed at
the Weems line wharf yesterday morn
ing. Their driver was James Groucher.
The animals seeming quiet, Groucher
started to drive them without any
ropes. On reaching Conway street q
heifer, which had been moving along
very placidly, became very much ami
mated, and made things very interest
ing for the balance of the herd. The
street being too wide for her she danced
up an alley between 1870 and 1871 Con-
way street. A gate blocked her way,
but only momentarily. Through it she
went, and then another obstacle pre-
sented itself, Mrs. Emma A. Poole, who
proved to be no more of stop to the
heifer's onward progress than Fort Car
roll would be to a modern man-of-war.
In moment Mrs. Poole was knocked
to the ground, and in the kitchen it
went. There some destruction Of prop
erty was committed, but not enough to
satisfy the heifer.
The dining room was next entered,
where the we'll known quadruped-in-a
china-shop scene was re-enacted. The
hallway was then taken in, and lamp
was knocked down. The heifer wanted
to conquer higher worlds, so she went
upward into bedroom. Here, tenn
porarily, repose was sought on the bed,
but it fell under the animals weight,
other damage being done during this
occurrence. From here, the weather
being warm, her heifership went into
the bathroom and hoped into the bath
tub. Mrs. Poole then commenced call
ing for help, and, with the assistance of
a blue coated soldier, drove the animal
out, and she at once sailed up Hanover
street and there entered another house,
but did no damage. The driver final Y
caught the animal-Baltimore Ameri-
can.

Cowboy Sailors Not just the Thing.

Captain Hanson, of the new schooner
Spray, on her maiden voyage from the
Suislaw river, in Oregon, had lively
experience with cowboy sailors. With
six of this new variety the captain put
to sea. Hardly had he got outside when
a strong southeast gale came up. The
schooner rolled fearfully and the cow
boys became terribly sick and lay in a
heap in the forecastle perfectly helpless.
The captain and his mate succeeded in
lowering the foresail, and with the main
eail and jibs set the schooner was driven
before the gale at a terrific rate. Sew
eral seas were shipped and one Of the
cowboys was washed against the lumber
on deck. breaking his leg. When the
weather moderated the captain put into
Port Townsend, where the injured cow
hoy sailor was sent to the Marine hos
pital Two sailors were engaged and
the schooner made the trip down in
twelve days. The five cowboy sailors
have decided not TO go to sea any more.
