S., 100000 in land and money. The
Red Men have subscribed about
$4,000 and will make every effort

The dispatches tell US that over
fondness for cheese got a colored
barber at Altoona, Pa, into Jail.
He burglArized a store last Friday
night, but couldn't resist the temp
tation to take a bite of cheese ly~
ing on the counter. He was minus
a tooth. The indentation in the
cheese showed that the biting was
done by a person minus a front
tooth. The barber was arrested, a
cast OF his mouth taken and the
fac smile fitted the cheese to dot.
He owned up and implicated three
other persons, one white and two
Arabians, who had bought the stolen
goods from him. Moral Never
bite cheese when it is your business
to burgle.

LIBRARY ORGANIZED.

EDITORS J oURNAL-I have been thinking
Tor some time of giving your readers an
account Of the organization of the Aims
worth Library Association, at Lost Mount
ain, which is yet in its infancy, and humble
in its pretensions, but yet is capable OF
being OF great benefit to it's members.
Some three months ago the writer in CONS
pany with three other young men of the
community was discussing the advantages
OF pubic libraries and the question was
asked, why can't We have library in our
community, and each of the four present
agreed to donate one dollar for such an
enterprise. We solicited others and re>
ceived three dollars more in donations.
a few weeks later we met and organized
with twenty>four members, each llale pay
ing 25'cents and each female Is cents for
Initiation fee. This money we invested in
books which together with few that was
donated numbers thirty.sjx volumes. AS
L said in the beginning this is but an hun1-
BILE beginning, but remember each one has
as free access to these thirty-six volumes
as though they were his individual proper
ty, which will afford anyone good year
reading and that too from such authors as
Wallace, Bulwer Dickens, Pope, Locke,
Reid, Gray, MulOck| Buell., Upsbaw and
others. And each Of the nineteen male
members will pay one dollar a year for
dues, which equals $500. Each of the
six females 40 cents equal 81 40. Total
$2l.4O, which when invested will more
than double its present size.
Now the point is this there is not CONS
munity in the county but what could start
as good library as we have and it would
cause many OF our boys and young men TO
stay on the farm and earn their. living from
the soil instead Of rushing off to the towns
and cities to seek the advantages which
they afford and walk the streets in search
Of employment or work for paltry wages.
And once you start the young people to
reading RDd you but start them to think
ing and if such system was once started
in our land We would have no need to fear
for the safety of our nation, and it might
truly be said there were giants in those
days
Let our people 90 to work on this mat,
ter. They have been successful in the
work of literary circles and why not in
this matter. Believe me, success is sure
to crown your efforts.

A negro named Dan Ahren was
lynched Friday morning in Green's
boro, Ga, for assaulting the wife of
Dan Chambers, white farmer liV>
ing about four miles from Green's
boro. MIR. Chambers was absent at
the time, and his wife, being in a
! helpless condition, was easily over
powered by the negro and outraged.
He was captured and identified by
Mrs. Chambers, confessed the crime
and was jailed. About noon a
crowd arrived from another county,
demanded the keys from the jailor,
captured the Jail, hung the negro
and riddled his body with bullets.
The crime was Of such dastardly
nature that even the negroes of the
community say he'deserved his fate.
The meekness of the Populist
movement in this State is largely
due to tie fact that Georgia has the
. best government of any State in. the
Union. Its public affairs are ad-
ministercd wisely and economically,
the State treasury is in a sound,
healthy condition, the public credit
is gilt edge, and there is no scandal
of any kind touching any of the de-
partments of the public service.
The old State is growing brighter
in the national galaxy, her states
men are filling some OF the highest
places in the Federal Government,
and altogether Georgians have the
best reason for feeling proud of
themselves and of their State. And
all this is the result of successive
Democratic administrations. Popu-
list leaders have not been able to
persuade the people that this kind
of administration should be overs
thrown Columbus Enquirer Sun.

There is no kind of wood or coal that

mesquite tree wood 1t has all the advan-
tage of coal, but does not clinker nor scat

yields, while burning, a slight, spicy and

is valuable for tanning. and the produc-

ing tree Is bruised it gives out gum

A LIGHT HAIRED MAN
Supposed to Have Been the Murderer
OF Emily Chambers.

Detective Parker says that this after
noon there is a absolutely nothing new in
the Chambers murder case, but as Mr.
Parker is a good detective he would not
advertise his business even IL he had
clue that made him practically sure
OF being able to capture the murderer.
Since the Identification Of the woman he
has been hard at work on the other half OF
the mystery, rejecting theory after theory
that has been advanced, with more or less
reason TO substantiate il, until
now the difference of opinion as
TO how the man looked seems to be cleared
up and when the murderer of Emily
Chambers is brought to light it is more
than probable that the victim will be
found to have light hair and moustac he,
and blue eyes, to be younger than his VIC
tim was and smaller.
Early Thursday evening, the night on
which the murder was undou btedly COM
mitted, Conductor Healy of Hartford
street electric car was accosted at the end
OF his route in Johnston by man
in buggy, who inquired about the
road TO Scituate. The man ask
ing the question stopped his horse
under the full glare of an electric lamp
and Healey could easily distinguish his
feat3res and see that he had woman In
the buggy with him.
The man was rather below the medium
size, wore a black slouch hat, was of san
dy complexion and had light moustac he.
The woman wore dark colored clothing.
The horse was small black animal
such as was taken from Franklin Bros.
stable on the afternoon OF the same day.
A bran new theory relative to the Scit-
uate tragedy has been lost sight of in the
excitement OF which the keynote was
murder, was brought TO light last night
in police tircl and received
no little support. Was the
shooting of Emily Chambers accidental?
The location OF the wound, the course
OF the bullet and the fact that the woman
was shot from behind might favo-
this theory, and with nothing
known OF amotive for the
crime it is not an unreasonable one to
adhere to. And IL it was accidental,
if the revolver had been discharged while
the two were in the carriage and the re-
suit was fatal the man who held the re-
volver would be just as terrified at dis
covery as If murder had been his inten-
tion. He would realize his position, the
time of night, the place, the fact that
every circumstance was against him that
the accident would be called murder and
then fear OF discovery would be Just as
apt TO cause him to take the next step,
conceal the body and make recognition
impossible, as IL he knew himself to be
guilty.
