Warning Regarding the Proposed Settle

Warning Regarding the Proposed ssttle-
ment of Old Soldiers in Georgia.
INpIANAPoLIs, April GA telegram
from Baltimore says: 'Ex Governor Nor
then, who is Mt the head of the Georgia
bureau of immigration, telegraphs The
Manufacturers Record, of this city, that
he has secured a site for a settlement of
IA, 900 veterans of the late war and their
families in southern Georgia. This col
ony has been organized by p. H. Fit2-
gerald and others, of indianapolis, and
will comprise old soldiers from various
sections. 1t is called the Soldiers Colony
club and embraces farmers, mechanics,
and men in the various professions. A
large proportion Of the people will locate
on small farms in the territory selected,
while the balance will found a new
city"
At the recent encampment of the
Georgia Grand Army a statement was
adopted in reference to the immigration Of
old soldiers to that state, which says that
having heard that large numbers of old
soldiers are contemplating going to
Georgia to find homes the Georgia g. A.
X. deems il n duty to call attention 60
certain facts, which are, in brief, that
there are large tracts of land in Georgia
which are held under fraudulent grants;
that the traffic in these fraudulent titles
and the efforts to unload them upon in
nocent parties has been so great and
widespread that Secretary of State Cook,
OF Georgia, has felt it his duty to issue a
circular calling special attention to these
frauds. 1t is urged that those contem-
plating going to Georgia for homes read
this circular carefully, and a copy Of it is
made part of the statement. Old soldiers
are informed, however, that there is a
hearty welcome to all who go to Georgia
The statement emphasizes the possible
dangers comrades may incur in becoming
freeholders of the state of Georgia, and
assures the veterans that there is desirable
land in Georgia sufficient in quantity to
| furnish a great army of old soldiers with
| good farms, the titles of which are per-
feet Mr.. Fitzgerald said that this cir.
cular was the work Of an agent through
| whom the sale was not made. He said
the purchase was subject to a good and
sufficient title which is yet subject to the
| approval Of attorneys specially selected to
| pass on it.

THE OTHER ONE.

Sweet little maid with winSome eyes
That laughs all day through tangled
hair.
Gazing with baby looks SO wise
Over the arm of the oaken chair.
Dearer than you is none TO me,
Dearer than YOU there can be none.
Since in your laughing face | see
Eyes that tell of another one.
Here where the freight softly glows.
Sheltered and safe and snug and warm,
What to you is the wind that blows.
Driving the sleet of the winter storm!
Round your head the ruddy light
Glints on the gold from your tresses
spun.
But deep is the drifting snow tonight
Over the heat Of the other one.
Hold me close as you sagely stand,
Watching the dying embers shine:
Then shall | feel another hand
That nestled once in this hand of mine;
Poor little hand. so cold and chill.
Shut from the light of stars and sun,
Clasping the withered roses still
That hide the face of the sleeping
one.
Laugh. little maid. while laugh You may;
Sorrow comes TO us all. you know;
Better. perhaps, for her to stay
Under the drifting robe of snow.
Sing while you may your baby songs.
Sing till your baby days are done:
But. oh, the ache of the heart that
longs
Night and day for the other one!

DESPERATION"
The New Game of Cards which Is Intei
estipg Eastern Society.


Desperation" is a game of cards
that is best described as a continuity of
sequences. regardless of suit. It is
played with three full packs of SO cards
each, and the most convenient number
of players is IL, but eight or ten per-
sons will find it very delightful way
to spend an evening In party of la
dies and gentlemen the better way is for
the one six to challenge the other six
and then. sitting in couples at the table.
alternating the play.
The first duty is to select "a banker,
who should also act as umpire for the
evening. The banker or dealer should
then shuttle the three packs of cards to-
gether very thoroughly and count two
NESTS, of 80 cards each, the one to be
known as ladies nest, 7" the other as
'gentlemen's nest" placing them at
opposite ends of the table Each player
then receives a hand Of six cards, dealt
one at time. These hands are placed
face down directly in front of each
player.
The play is from the banker to the
left. and each player turns up a card,
and the play continues until an ace is
turned. The privilege of turning the
top card of center nests is taken by the
first player of each side When AN ace
is turned up, it is placed in the center
of the table, and the fun begins. The
purpose of the game is to exhaust the
center nests, and the game is won by
the side exhausting their nest first The
sequences in the center of the table are
ace high to deuce, while the side Sc
quences or partners hand are high or
low. So that each partner plays on the
center sequences, his or his partner 8
sequences and his own, in effect play
ing seven hands in 12 hand game
The fun of the game is caused by the
penalty connected Herewith, which is:
No player is permitted by word, look,
sign, motion or suggestion to indicate
to the person playing any play or mis-
play possible on penalty of FORGETTING
the play of said player and having the
chance of a sequence pass to the next
player at table, which would naturally
be an opponent
There is a great amount of sport in
this game for a social evening, and it is
very popular in the eastern cities 1t
can be made progressive''if desired on
the same principles as euchre. st

Calls having become in our busy life
OF great cities so perfunctory an obliga-
ton. many people have seen fit 20 drop
the attempt TO make them except in
cases where coincidence or congratulation
is in order. These cases demand the
leaving of cards in person only, and so

that people Of the world do not hold

A BAD MARK FROM GOD.
A Little Girls Original Definition In Coui

A Little Girls Original Definition In Court
of ''What Is SIM"
An incident worth recording occurred
before Chief Judge Sodgewick of the
superior court in the trial of the action
brought in behalf of Ida Goldberg to re-
cover SIS. 900 damages from Edward
Ridley q Sons for injuries received in
being knocked down and run over by
one of the wagons of the firm. The girl
had her arm fractured. The defense was
that she was responsible for the acct
dent by her own negligence.
Lottie Goldberg, sister of the plain
tiff, who is only | years of age, was
called to the witness chair to testify to
the circumstances of the accident She
was such q little child that she was
questioned as to her understanding the
nature of an oath, in order to ascertain
whether she should be allowed to testify.
"Do you understand tho nature of an
oath?''
Eyes. sir =
"What is it,"
at is swear. T"
On cross examination the little girl
was asked:
"what do you mean when you say it
is a swear?''
"Well. it is that have to tell the
truth. -
IF you don't tell the truth, what
then?'
THAT would be sin. "
"What is sin?''
"a bad mark from God, !" answered
the little one.
The venerable chief judge was visibly
touched at this answer of the child and
remarked, This is very intelligent
child and perfectly understands the OBJ
legations of an oath. - She was then al
lowed to give her testimony. New York
