Waycross, Ga, Dec. 29.-Mr. G. W.

the Elwood Park colony in this county,

Morning News correspondent that he

good farmers, fruit growers, merchants
and mechanics and various other occu-
pations including both men of consider
able means and men who are dependent

ganized by means of attractive circulars
descriptive of Ware county and containing
full particulars of its aims and objects.
Persons who read the circulars and be-
come interested generally pay me a per-
sonal visit. The result is, in most cases,
that they join the colony. l control 5000

CAROLINA MIDLAND.
Chicago Capitalists to Buy or Lease
the Road.

Charleston, S. c., Dec 29.-It has come
to light that negotiations are pending
for the sale of the Carolina Midland rail-
road to a syndicate of Chicago capitalists.
The Chicago people are represented here
by T. Moultrie Mordecai, but neither Ire
nor President George A. Wagner, of the
road, will say anything for publication.
They admit, however, that the negotia-
lions are in progress and 1t is believed
that the management of the road will be
changed either by lease or sale within
the next few days.
The Carolina Midland was built by
Charleston capital and it is still owned
here 1t is said that the object of the
purchase by the Westerners is to build
the road further into the upper part of
South Carolina and to extend it to either
Charleston or Savannah. The road is now
sixty miles long. running mostly through
Barnwell county, South Carolina.

Good business in Mecca.
From Chamber's journal.

From Chambers Journal.
The sheriff of Mecca is, in ali likelihood,
the only man who knows how many de-
voices visit that city, for he levies a stiff
toll on every one, and makes a. very
handsome income out of the business.
There are many other men who prosper
in Mecca. Hundreds act as guides, phil
osophers and kind friends to the bewild
cred pilgrimS-for consideration. They
show them where to kneel in the great
mosque; where to pray, where to repeat
certain parts of the Koran-in fact, they
utter the words, and their pupils follow
suit. These people are naturally oppos-
ed to all innovations, and so, also, are the
purveyors of food which is excessively
dear during the pilgrimage.
Every year the Sultan of Turkey sends
a magnificent carpet, costing 1920, for
use in the great mosque. This carpet is
carried all the way from Turkey on the
finest and strongest camel that can be
procured.
The Khedive of Egypt sends a like
costly carpet every year. In each case
the camel which bears the gift is called
the MAMMAL and is looked upon as a
sacred animal. Now the sheriff of Nee
ca has the right of disposing of the old
carpets, which are cut up, the pieces being
sold as sacred relics at smart prices. The
pilgrim who can afford to purchase a
piece to take home considers himself a
fortunate man. In this and other ways
the faithful and simple are exploited.

Albert Lund is carpenter and boards at
the Union Hotel at Deerfield Corners. He
was sitting on the hotel veranda when the
storm came up last evening. After one of
the flashes of lightning Lund tipped over
in his chair and fell down like one dead.
There were half a dozen people who wit
messed the occurrence. When they picked
him up Lund was unconscious. For fifteen
minutes he was unable to speak. Peter
Schultz, proprietor of the hotel, walked
him around and resorted to various meas
ures to bring the young man to his senses.
His efforts were finally successful and
Lund was soon able to describe the sensa-
lions he had experienced. He said that
they were not altogether unpleasant. The
worst sensation was after the effects pass
ed away. He felt sick at his stomach.
Twice before Lund has drawn in his d.
rection electricity from the clouds, and he
begins to think that he might properly be
dubbed ''the human lightning rod" On
one of thu previous occasions he was

time he was so violently shaken that his

There are a number of disadvantages

makes the trouble grow by what it feeds
upon. The remedy for this state of things
Is within the reach of every one who has
time and resolution to spend ten or fifteen
minutes every day in certain exercises
which will be given in detail. and which
require absolutely nothing else but time
and persistence.
The best time for taking these exercises
Is in the morning Immediately after leav-
