The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1895-08-21

From the Birmingham (Ala) Age-Herald.
Jim Harp, while out hunting one day
last week in company with Ed Colston,
went to the creek TO see if he could get a
shot at a fish. On approaching the bank
he heard fluttering in the water, and on
investigation found that a large spider
had caught small fish about one and a
half inches long. He says the spider
climbed a weed with the fish, and that he
knocked them back into the creek with
his gunstock, and they sank out of sight
and remained under the water some time.
When they came to the top he knocked
the spider away, and the fish, after swim
ming around on it's side for a short time,
disappeared from sight.

Of his suffering friends. We

He gave his life for his fellows.

Pea Ridge.


Frequent exclamation, an awful
long winter and l am glad it's
over.
Weather here is mild and
spring like; oats coming up we'll.
Some few farmers only just finish
ed blowing.
Mrs. Susan Finnell is lying very
sick at the residence Of Mr.. Ben
Coins. near Benson Church. Her
sister. Mrs. Jim Tracy. paid her a
visit last Thursday.
Quite a number Of our people
attended the Odd Fellows enter
tainment in Frankfort last even
ing.
The school trustees have Just
finished the census Of the children
of this district.
The many friends Of Mr.. Joe
Tracy will be sorry to hear that
his well known and favorite mule.
Belle, is dead. Belle was we'll
known over this and three or four
other counties and was the almost
constant companion of its owner
for twenty-four years.
The Ridge is billed with the
announcement of an entertain.
ment at the schoolhouse consist
ing of stereoptican views
scriptural. war. historic and comic;
music, songs and slight of hand.
A very good programme is Offer
ed to take place next Friday night.
The wheat here is in splendid
condition and promises a large
crop.
Larger acreage and larger crops
will be raised here this year than
ever before in the history of the
Ridge. Large pastures that have
not been plowed for twenty or
thirty years have this spring been
plowed for corn and tobacco.
The Ridge is now a perfect bee
gum Of industry; every patch Of
ground is being cultivated, those
who have no land have rented
some and everyone without ex-
ception is employed in raising
crop. Having business in town
several Of our people walked so as
not to take their horses from the
field. During the previous years
our people depended on town
work great deal for winter pro-
visions, &c, hiring themselves and
wagons out to do all kinds Of
work, hauling, moving, quarrying,
&C., last year learnt them some
thing. for they would 60 to town
day after day and find nothing to
do or worse still, sometimes they
would get a job only to find that
"some dreadful disaster befell the
paymaster. So this year they
will depend on their own crops
here; in fact, home industry is the
word on Pea Ridge.
Wednesday night was drill
night for the McCreary Guards
and several Of our young men at

Our county will soon need a
Representative and in looking for
one we should try to find a man
who knows what our county
needs and has the ability to pre-
sent the matters entrusted to him.

army and the great deeds Of Jack
son and Lee. The ballot boxes,
city and county, and the State safe
needs few repairs and Col. L
P. Tarlton. Of Fleetwood, is jus,
the man to attend to these and any
other matters entrusted to him.
Col. Tarlton never has been a
partisan. but liberal in his views,
and knowing the need Of the
times our people could not do
any better than send the Colonel
to represent them in rhe next
assembly, while they could very
easily do great deal worse.
A letter was received here from
MI. Ben Tracy. who left here for
Moreland Station. Lincoln county.
Ben's many friends will be glad to
hear he is doing well.
The Ridge is billed with the an
nouncement Of the Populist con-
vention in Frankfort. May 18th, to
nominate a member of the Legis-
lature and send delegates to the
State conventio.. at Louisville.
The convention ought to be a large
one for all the (dissatisfed) are
invited to attend.
In Lexington a few weeks ago,
during the Mills meeting, quite a
number Of Frankfort visitors
begged the Ridge Scribe to show
them the haunted house and relate
the story connected Herewith.
The house, which every one knows,
is situated on East Main street
and its very appearance would
seem to indicate that it was haunt
ed. was shown to them. but the
blood curdling tales connected
with the building are Of such a
, nature as to be unsuitable for any
paper but a novel. 1t has been
rented several times. but people
seldom stayed long. A boarding
house keeper opened it with full
staff of young men, thinking that
would cure it if anything would.
but it was worse haunted than
ever b fore. Finally it was
ordered sold, torn down and the
material hauled away, hoping 10
settle the ghost that way, but
$500 was all that was bid on the
material. which was probably
haunted too, so it was withdrawn
from sale. A full page explana-
ton written by the owner failed to
convince people that 1t was not
haunted and the verdict of all who
read the article and know the
house is, "well it was haunted
once, even if it aint now"
Cleveland and Carlisle are
blamed for their financial policy
