~ Alliga.cr's Revenge for Crusl.c

An alligator story which beats the rec
ord comes from Early county, Some ne
groes were at work In a turpentine farm
near Damascus cleaning the trash and
straw away from the boxes preparatory to
burning off the woods. when they came
across an alligator who had crawled out
during the last warm spell to put on his
new spring suit. but who was knocked
back into a state OF dormacy by the re
cent cold snap. The old fellow was lying
there stiff. hard motionless. and crusty
and the negroes decided that thev would
make an end of him by burning him up;
so they dipped turpentine out Of the
boxes and covered him over entirely with
that inflammabe substance. and then
heaped pine straw on top Of him, and then
poured more turpentine on that.
When the fire began 10 blaze, his al
ligatorshlp suddenly awoke from dreams
OF icebergs and hoar frosts into what he
supposed was the land OF the perennial
summer where the bad gators go. Never
theless, instinct was stronger than In
tellect. and Old Crusty decided that
even though he were In hell. he would
split for a pond. He spltted and through
the pine woods he went. leaving n long
streak Of fire. His rapid fight to the
pond gave him the appearance Of gor-
geous meteor floating away. leaving be-
hind II n tail Of flame
a minute later the trail OF fire was
mile long, the gator was rolling over and
under in the cooling waters OF a cypress
pond, but the woods were burning up
The festive darkies, who a minute before
were waiting and watching in unfelgned
glee 10 see the gator burn, were now
busy fighting fire. After long while they
succeeded In putting It out. but ten crops
OF boxes had been destroyed.-Atanta

Hson presided over conference Of Re

about twu-thirdS Of the membership
being present. 1t was continuation of
the discussion which occurred al Sen
ator Sherman's house on Monday night.
Senator Dubois announced his Inten-
ton Of publicly declaring in favor OF
speedy action, and When several sem
atUrs took issue with him he said his
Judgment relative to the silver repeal
was as good as theirs last fall, and lie
intended TO follow it. The conference
broke up without any action being
agreed upon, but those senators who be-
lieve in early action seemed to be in
such large majority that they felt that
the policy would now be 10 consider
the bill with view of engaging i'll only
legitimate discussion OF the various
schedules.
Senator Chandler advanced the Sug-
geStlOn ti!at the debate would consume
from thirty to sixty days GA Whatever
lines 1t might be conducted, and said
that as that was The case, there was no
necessity for resolving upon any par
ticular course at present. He also
urged that there was no suggestion of
fillDuStering for the Republican confer
ence TO consider, as there were no Sella-
tors who desired 10 engage in tilibuSter-

Great Waterway.
WASHINGTON, May &c. A plan for
tine completion OF the Nicaraguan canal
by this government by a new system of
financiering was introduced in the
house today by the author. Representa-
tive Bryan, of Nebraska. While some
of the features of Senator Morgan's pro-
ject are repeated, a great novelty is
brought forward by provisions intended
to increase the circulating medium of
the country by paying for the stock of
the canal company by an issue of legal
tender notes. modelled after the green
backs of 1862.
Inc plan is designed SO as to meet
with favor from the anti-bond men. Ac-
cordlng to the bill, the stock of the
canal company is to consist of 1000, 600
shares of 500 from which United States

those issued under the act of Feb. rs.
1862, are TO he issued. redeemabIe to the
same extent and i'll the same manner as
he notes OF 1862.
The secretary of the treasury is to
purchase s75.0O0,000 of the stock of the
company and pay for it at par by the
issue of the notes described, which are
to be kept in circulation as part of the
currency of the country. Six million of
the capital stock is to be issued to the
government of Nicaragua, s5oO,oOo to
Costa Rica, and the remaining s22,

HARD FOR YOUNG GIRLS.
Trying Preparation for Entrance
Into Society What Paine's
Celery Compound Does.

10 be graceful, entertaining. accom-
plished in music and French. easy
takers on topics of the day, yet up in
ancient history-this and much more is
what society expects of the young girls
who ''come out' at IS or 10.
In the few years before 20 so great
change is wrought that we almost. as if
by magic, see a woman, where but
short time before was only child.
LII, during these critical years, con-
slant mental exertiou absorbs blood and
nerve force. the system grows feeble
and suffers from lack OF nourIShment.
The vital mistake of the thousands of
girls who yearly break down in schools
| and colleges is just here: A vigorous,
healthy body and brain must have an
unlimited supply OF pure, rich blood,
iuIly capable OF building up growing
tissues and repairing the waste of hard
worked nerves and brain and body.
This is just what Paine's celery COM
pound is providing today for over
worked. anxious. run down" people all
over the United States and Canada.
II care be taken that no part of the
body be poorly nourished, great deal
OF hard work and study can be safely
gone through. But when young girls
are seen to grow thin, pale, spiritless,
and nervous. there is plainly starvation
OF some of the important organs and a
craving of the blood and nerves for
better nutrition
Paine's celery compound was first
prepared by Prof. Edward E. Phelps,
NJ. D.. LII. d.. of Dartmouth college,
with the fullest knowledge Of any ned
Ical man of his day Of what tired. weak,
nervous women need to make them well
and strong.
The happy effects of Paine's celery
compound i'll all cases of debility, nerv-
Gus weakness, and impoverished. i'm
pure blood are astonishing. 1t makes
people we'll where everything else fails.
This remarkable remedy makes
slcklY. feeble women strong; does away
completely with the languid feeling
that comes from underfed nerves and
blood.
As sure sign of its radical effect on
the system for good, it is noticed that in
short time the eyes grow clearer and
brighter, the cheeks ruddier, and the
mind more active and hopeful.
Palne's celery compound cures dys-
pepsla, SICK headaches, neuralgia, rheu.
matlsm, and every symptom of impure
olOod, aud permanently cures the most
difhcult diseases of the liver, kidneys
and heart.
thousands and thousands Of men and
women who have taken Paine's celery
compound are today perfectly well and
happy.

a NAVAL COMPLICATION
Ii Which the United States Was
Once involved.

WASHINGTON. May l6.-The strained
relations between Brazil and Portugal,
resulting from the extension by the
Portuguese men-ofwar of the right of
asylum to the defeated rebel admiral,
Da CANA, recalls to the naval officers a
complication of a similar nature in
which the United States was involved
With Brazil, and IN which we were
guilty of much more Migrant violation
of international law than is charged
against Portugal. 1t was in the days of
our civil war, when the Alabama and
Shenandoah and other Confederate
cruisers were working havoc to our
commerce, that Capt. Collins, of the
United States steamer Wachusetts,
finally cornered the Shenandoah in Rio
harbor. The neutrality laws required
that when belligerent vessels sheltered
in harbor desired to leave one must
give the other twenty-four hours start.
By the operation of that law Capt.
Collins had lost several possible CAP
tiyes, and he was determined that the
Shenandoah should not escape him.
So in the night he got under way
and made straight at the Shenan-
doah, intending to sink her SAG
cidentalIy' in IL collision. But the
Waehusetts struck the Shenandoah
glancing blow without materially dam
aging her. But Capt Collins was not
to be baked, and throwing boarders OH
the vessel, attached a cable to her and
boldly towed her out of the neutral port,
and up 10 Hampton Roads, Va. There
was great stir over this breach of in
ternational law, and although Emperor
Dom Pedro was warm SympatniZer
with the North. he could not overlook
the indlgnity that had been put upon his
country, and demanded reparation.
When the facts came out the United
States had no defense, so Capt. Collins
was suspended, an ample apology was
made to Brazil and the Shenandoah was
ordered TO be returned i'll good order in
Rio harbor. BY mysterious accident.
which never was fully explained, one OF
our gunboals.in getting under way from
Han. zion Roads the night before the
Shenandoah was &c sail, ran into the
ship and she was sunk at her anchorage,
so that the Brazilian government was
obliged TO be content with an apol-
Ogy and Capt. Collins punishment.
