THE s1xTH's NEW OFFICERS.
An Indictment for Political Effect in
Glascock County.

Augusta, Ga, Aug. 22.-Chris J.
Rooney, who was formerly a member of
the city council, some time ago had his
liquor license revoked for selling liquor
on Sunday, To-day he was again before
the recorder for selling liquor last Sunday
in an clubhouse in his yard and was fined
$500 for selling without license. 1t is
probable that he may be prosecuted in the
United States court.
News was received here to-day that the
grand jury of GlascOck county had IN
dicted Hon. Bryan Cumming ana Salem
butcher, ESD candidates for the Senate
in this district, for a slight disturbance
there on Monday. Mr.. Cumming re-
ferred to Mr.. butcher as a traitor to the
democracy Mr.. butcher started to-
ward the platform and Mr.. Cumming ad-
vanced TO the edge of the platform to
meet him, but they could not reach each
other before friends interfered.
Glascock is a third party county, and
the indictments are said to have been
lnstlgated by the pOpuliSts as reflection
upon the democratic standard bearer.
The affair is more likely to reflect upon
the good Judgment of the grand Jury
Officers of the recently organized
Sixth infantrylregiment, Georgia Volun-
teers, were elected tonight. Col VIM.

JUDGE sIMONTON's DECISION.
In the matter of the petition of Receiv-
ers Conner and Hayes of the Central rail
road, setting up claims against the Port
Royal and Western Carolina railroad for
balances due on operating expenses of
Sl30,00O, for new rails $40, 900, and for in
terest on Augusta and Knoxville bonds for
So, 600, and praying that receivers Ger
tificates be issued for the total amount
thus due, Judge Simonton has filed an
opinion refusing the petition and only
allowing certain sums for new rails. The
opinion is quite long.

ADVICE TO THE BLACKS.
W. H. Styles Tells Them to Stand b!
the Republican Party.

w. d. Styles Tells Them to Stand by
the Republican Party.
Lyons, Ga, Aug CIV. H. Styles,
colored, who has for several years repre-
sented Liberty county in the legislature,
and is now the republican nominee for the
Senate from the Second district, delivered
practical address here Monday His
advice to the colored people was, hands off
in the present fight between the populists
and democrats, to stand by the Republican
party
He announced that on Aug. 81 there
would be convention held at
Reedsville to nominate a candidate
for the legislature from Tattnall county
If one is nominated it will be the first
term in many years since TattnaL has
had republican in the race.
AS far as the populists and democrats
are concerned there is but little enthusi-
asm manifested on either side in this sec
ton. The county is full of turpentine
and saw-mill negroes and there is Just
cause to fear that unless the whites quit
quarreling among themselves the next
general Assem- bly, will find black man in
the seat in both houses from this district
and county.

A HAIRRREATH ESCAPE.

In his recently published memoirs Gen
eral Marriott who took part in nearly cv-
crv one of Napoleon's campaigns, describes
a terrible plight in which he once found
himself and relates how he managed to
cxtricate himself by an almost incredible
display of moral and physical energy. He
was charging the Austrians at the head OF
numerous suuadroTS when mis- horse was
killed under him ana fell, dragging him
down in its fall. All our calvcry passed
over him without touching him, which Is
not surprising, as a horse, unless wounded
or tired out, generally avoids trcadlng on
human bodies He began to think he
was safe, when he perceived our regiments
returning at full gallop, pursued i'll their
turn by the full strength of a division of
J-hlans. General Marriott saw clearly that
if he did not contriye to keep pace on
foot with our horsemcn he would be cut
down without mercy. The thought OF
certain death increased his strength Il

Selrst Miserl1any.
THE LITTLE CHRISTMAS ANGEL.
BY DITH SPENCER.

Miss Gwvnne was head teacher in Mad
anne Duvall's school. She was a solitary,
reserved woman. and her manner was cold
and rcpellant toward the thoughtlcsS girls
who called her Miss Grim behind her
back, and never dreamed that once she
had been as beautiful and warmhcarted
and gay as any of them.
She's just" they had often said of her
.Oh. yes Miss Grim is justice itself-and
she's good teacher. But she's as hard as
a rock and as cold aS ice and her very
manner says stand off and keep your dis
tancer
Il know it. And yet-shc seems so
lonely that | can't help feeling sorry"
said Elsie Dean. DO You think she was
always so severe"
''Oh, | don't suppose she was born Sc
vere.'' was the gay reply. Maybe she
even had a hcart-once; hut that must
have been long long ago, and it's quite
ossited by this time. She's disappoint-
ed old maid, | guess" she added lightly.
The thoughtess girl had unconsciously
hit upon the truth. Miss Gwynne's early
disappointment had been cruel one, and
the double treachcrv of her lover and her
trusted friend had cmbittcrcd her and spoil
ed her life.
Miss Gwvnne was now alone in the worl |
and because of the shrinking away of her

for many years.
In all that time she had never heard of
those who had so wrongcd her, and it was
with a positive horror that on the opening g
dav of this fall term she found among the
new scholars young girl who not only
bore the name she dreaded, but whose
bright Young face was blended likeness
of the two who had once been dcarer to
her than all the world.
Toward Elsie Dean, therefore, Miss
Gwvnne's GOODNESS had been most marked.
Yet the very presence Of the girl had
strangely troubled her.
After some weeks El>ie's Attendance be
came irregular, and at last had altogether
ceased Miss Gwvnnc had heard through
Madame Duvall that her absence was
caused by ''illncSS in the family" but TO
inquiry about her absent pupil ever pass
ed the teachers rigid lips.
1t was now Christmas Eve, and Miss
Gwynne was pursuing her lonely way to
her small and chcerIcSs lodgings from the
deserted Svho0l-r0Om where she had been
busy correctia : the last examination paper.
There was a Christmas brightness i'll the

TIE PAINS OF RHEUMATISM.

According to the best authorities, originate
in a morbid condition of the blood. Lac
tic acid, caused by the decomposition of
the gelatinous and albuminous tissues, cir
culates with the blood and attacks the f1b
rous tissues, particularly in the joints, and
thus causes the local manifestation of the
disease The back and shoulders are the
parts usually affected by rheumatism, and
the joints at the knees, ankles, hips and
wrists are also sometimes attacked. Thou
sands of people have found in Hoods Sar-
Saparilla positive and permanent cure for
rheumatism. 1t has had remarkable sue
cess in curing the most severe cases. The
secret of its success lies in the fact that it
attacks at once the cause of the disease by
neutraizing the lactic acid and purifying
the blood, as well as strengthening every
function of the body.
