at once began bis carmagnole by denying
every statement and argument of Mr.
stephens, declaring the whole speecl
rom beginning to end a rigamarole Of
falsehood.
Fellow citizensT said Russell. "this
half dead, measly looking, sickly thing
has come up here to north Georgia
v here he knows nobody and nobody
knows him, and thinks he can fool YOU
homes. people with all of the stuff to
which you have listened for over two
hours Fellow citizens, he is a whig in
the first place, and God knows that's
bad enough; in the second place he is
one OF these lying lawyers that the devil
wouldn't keep company with, because of
his meanness, and in the third place he
is natural born liar. He has not told
one word of truth or stated fact since
he has been talking up here, and why
God Almighty don't blast him is a plum
miracle to me-"
Mr.. Stephens was utterly amazed. He
stood the gathering fire of Russell well
until Russell declared him NATURAL.
BORN LIAR" As soon as a pause of a
second or two in Russell's speech al
lowed him, the "great commoner'' cried
out: Il deny that there is fact proven
in anything he has saidr' pointing to
Russell.
Immediately Russell came to the
charge with this reply: Eyes, fellow cit
liens, he, this wriggling earth worm,
screaches out here, Il DENY THE FACTr
WE'LL he is now, from his own words,
just what said he was-a plum liar.
He says he denies the fact. OF course
he does, fellow citizens. To deny fact
is to tell lie, and this fellow comes up
here and denies the fact for small fee
from those internal high tariff wings. If
he would do that he would deny his Lord
and crucifed Saviour afresh.' The crowd
yelled and cheered Russell, who, among
the immense number of democrats pres
ent, was an easy victor over the logic and
elequence of the great statesman and or
atOr.
Mr. Stephens declared afterwards to
several of his friends, and among them
the lovely old gentleman who has enter
tanned me with this Renaissance, that
he was more completely routed and
tongue dashed by Russell aad his denials
than he had ever been in his whole career
as public speaker.

The Weather in Middle Georgia.


On Monday morning Ed Brown, of
Sparta, showed curious and interesting
illustration of the almost torrid heat
which prevailed on Sun lay. Mrs. Browns
sitting room has north and south expo
sure, and the windows were open, to get
the benefit of any air that might venture
to circulate. On the table, in a metal
candlestick, was a parafine candle, al
most whole, and near by was half
ounce b tile of spirits of ammonia.
Paraffine fuses at about 1870 degrees Fab
renheit. The heat was SO great that the
candle became too soft to preserve it's
erect. position. 1t bent over and then
down in an irregular curve, until the tow
of it rested on the table. La bending
over the top of the candle touched the
side of the bottle, and in its semi-melted
condition adhered to it. In this position
the candle resumed its rigidity as the
weather grew cooler. The candle was still
maintaining it's curve and it's hold on the
bottle when exhibited to the Eshmaelites
This is quite an illustration of the ex-
treme high temperature OF Sunday
weather. If parafine fuses at about 13O
and candle was almost dissolved in a
room some distance above the ground,
and with the windows open, what must
have been the temperature out of doors
in the sun?

ALandscape on Her Back.

A famous Landscape painter had to call
in doctor to see his wife, who was suf-
fering from bronchitis, says the Boston
Transcript. After he had examined the
patient the doctor recommended the
husband to take small brush, dip it in
tincture of iodine and lightly paint the
ladys back with it. The artist took up
his brush, and, after dipping it in the
tincture, proceeded to carry out the
doctors prescription. But his artistic
temperament soon got the better of his
sick nursing qualities Mistaking his
wifes back for canvas, instead of sim
ply applying the iodine he sketched out
a landscape and gradually peopled it
with figures and put in all the details
complete. The patient, finding the OPP
Grafton rather lengthy one, asked her
husband if he had finished. And the
latter, receding few steps to examine
his work, replied: Another dab or two
and then can put it in the frame"

"Castoria is the best remedy for children of

far distant when mothers will consider the real

morphine, soothing syrup and other hurtful
agents down their throats, thereby sending
them to premature graves"

ment is due solely to Mansfeld's say SO.
for Mansfield always had a most erratic
eye for beauty or he would never have

1t is said that George Moore. author
of Esther Waters" and Mrs. Pearl
Craigie. known in erotic and realistic
fiction as John Oliver Hobbies, will soon
marry row that Mrs. Craigie has her
divorce. 4 hope that this report is
true. 1t will be one OF the most fitting
things of the year. These two people
have worse opinion of humanity than
anyone else outside OF France. George
Moore believes that all women are bad
AMI Mrs. Craigie knows that all men
are. So they ought to get along very
well as neither is in any danger Of des-
troying the others illusions. Then the
union of these people may save two

hear an actor extolling his art at the
cost Of a greater. then l want to go out
and slay somebody. A few weeks ago
heard a promising young actress with
less brains than beauty, saying that she
hoped Maude Adams would not throw
herself away on Richard Harding

to waste herself on a mere journalist.
Maude Adams = great artist! Throw

her the palm. Even Pepys. whose mis-

sort except the char. women and coal pick
ers down 10 the miserable street where
she was born. One morning ship came
in bearing the news OF the death OF the
Cham of rartary and of a French Prince
who was third cousin of the Ouch
ess. The next morning the Duchess APP
pared before the king in black with her
whole train OF attendants in mourning.
When asked the cause Of her grief she
replied that she had lost dear relative
and the king saluted her respectfully.
Immediately afterward Nell entered all
in deep mourning, her eyes down cast
and her face demure, her attendants
also in black Upon the kings inquiry
she answered soberly, Il mourn the
death Of my late relative tie Cham OF
Tartery, whereupon the king caught
her in his arms and kissed her before
the whole court. for black was more be-

Portsmouth.
Among the other grand opera lights
Campanari is coming back TO us with
Maurel. Tomagno and the De Reszkes.
He was pretty well crowded out OF the
newspapers last year, not because his
work was inferior, but because the
newspapers have only just SO much
space To give. and the oldest names get
it. Campanari as Ford IN Fa'staff was
a figure not easily forgotten. His
jealous scene was really one of the finest
things in the whole opera, and how fear
uliy jealous he was, He worked him
self up into perfect fury and demon of
jealousy, not a jealous Englishman, but
