price of its stock. aud he knew this before
his son bought the stock. He also knew
that putting 4 tariff on sugar would tend

not think it right TO speculate in the stocks
affected by legislation. and had never
done so.

give David much trouble Draughn wa.
several weeks ago dragged from the rail
road tracks in the south end of the city
just in time to save him from being
mangled. 1t was then discovered thai
he had been beaten almost to death. He
was carried to the Grady hospital, and
when he recovered physically it was
found that his mind was perfect blank
as to past events-so much so that he
even did not know his own name.
Finally under the care of the surgeons
there came back inklings of the past, and
one day last week he electrified every.
body about the hospital by rushing about
and declaring he had it." He had caught
what he said was his last name. He was
taken by detectives up into North Caro-
lima, and at Culberson, near Murphy, he
found friends, but he was not Drauphn.
at least not there. He had been known
there as DR., F. D. Heath and had lived
there for several months last summer.
but Heath and Draughn are one and the
same man, and it developed that under
the former name he has three living
wives. One lives in Salem, No. Q in
Asheville and No. 3 in Bryson City, Va.
His mother, Mrs. Frank Barr, the wife
OF printer, also lives near Salem. He
will be prosecuted for bigamy and is
very sorry he has found out who he is.

1HE MAN IN A HURRY.
How He May Make Himself Decided!
Unpleasant Person.

Unpleasant Person.
A stout and determined looking man
with white chin whiskers, gray hair
brushed severely back from his forehead
and gold spectacles on his prominent
nose entered a restaurant in Fourteenth
street at the rush hour and strobe
rapidly to one of the tables at which
there was a vacant seat. He hung a
stout cane on the hatrack far up on the
wall near the end of the table and was
divestiug himself of his overcoat when
he happened to notice that the waiter
was about leaving the table with orders
for the other men.
Hold on a minute, young Teller, and
take my order, too, he shouted. Bring
me some hash, with poached eggs on it,
and couple of sinkers and some coffee
in hurry"
Then he finished taking off his over
coat and tried to hang it on what he
probably thought was peg of the hat
rack, but he hit on the end of his cane
instead, and the coat Topped down on
the floor, while the cane, after knock
ing several hats off the rack, fell on the
head of man near the wall and then
bounded on the table with force enough
to break several dishes and scatter coffee
and gravy about promiscuously. The
men at the table picked up their hats
and began to say unpleasant things. but
they were quickly awed to silence by
the stout man, who declared with fog
horn voice:
ITS an internal outrage for man to
keep such a rack as that in his place. If
l was running this house, I'd see that
there'd be decent arrangements for folks
who patronized it."
Then he slammed his cane back on
the rack, hung his overCoat on peg
and sat down to glare at the waiter, who
cleared away the broken dishes and
wiped up the spilled coffee and gravy
with fresh napkins. Two minutes after
the waiter had left the table the stout
man began to grumble.
II guess, he said, that he has gone
down town to buy the meat to make
that hash with He must have been
born late in the day. l said l was in a
hurry, and now Tsuppose he will take all
day. If don get what ordered right
away, I'm going to leave.
Then the waiter came with the hash,
sinkers and coffee, and the stout man
made them disappear in way that
showed he was hustler" When his
jaws had ceased to work, he yelled for
his check and made grab at his over
coat and cane. There was another show
er of hats from the rack, but the man
in hurry did not stop to pick them up.
He evidently was too angry to say more.
The other men did not try to detain him,
but one Of them said;
THAT man must have been born be-
fore daylight"
There were come expressions Of assent
to the remark, and then another man
rounded it off with the declaration,
And he is trying the best he knows
how to make other men wish he never
had been born at all. - New York

The steel rails are being laid on the
Pstryville & Chester Railroad at the
rite of one mile a day. The road Is
only twenty miles long and We are in
formed that the road will be completed
and in operation by the first of
September. This road will give the
people of Perry county an outlet to
the Mississippi River and the outside
world. Perry county people have
lived in the backwoods for a long
time and we are glad that the light of
civilization is to be turned on for
them. 1t will do them good, financially,
intellectually and morally. In these
times a county without railroad outlet
has nc inducements to offer people to
locate therein. Perry is a good county
and when its railroad is completed
from the county seat to the Mississippi
River its people will be q happy,
prosperous people.

land that will be opened up to settlers.
