Twas the night before Christmfs,
When all through me went,
A couple of footpads,
Who took my last cent.
And now you will wonder,
How | take II so cool,
When my last cent Is gone.
You will think me a fool.

And nnc-umcty had blessed
The till of the town toy man
The footpads the rest.

And your presence in bah room and hall.

For which we are pining,
There's no use denying,
You're an enemy of trouble and care.

nuts heart aud soul into the part she
acts, Miss Cotton is very ably supported
nv Mr.. Bert Richardson who played the

A WORDY WAR.
TWO PROMINENT GEORGIANs ARE
AT OUTS
And the Usual Compliments have Been
Passed Through the Newspapers.
What 1t Is About.

A dispatch from Atlanta ann )unces
that Mr.. Azmon A. Murphey, the well
known prohibitionis5, is after the capil-
larry adornment Of Captain Evan p, How
ell, of the Atlanta Constitution, and un-
less the latter takes water, something he
has seldom been guilty of, it is more
than probable that the two gentlemen
will get into each others hair.
Mr.. Murphey is by no means pleased
with the treatment that he has received
at the hands of the Constitution, which
paper, he says, has persistently and ma
liciously, for years, misrepresented him
through its columns. his name, he says,
is rarely ever mentioned in that paper
except to belittle and BELLE This, he
declares, must stop and notifies Captain
Howell that from this time on he will
hold him to personal account for any
reflection that appears in his paper, and
says, damned be he who first cries:
Hold, enough"
But Mr.. Murphey is after Captain How
ell on an other score. 1t appears that
Captain Howell denied having admitted
to Mr.. Murphey that Hines defeated
Governor Atkinson three thousand votes
two years ago. To which denial Mr..
Murphey makes the following charac-
teristic reply:
without mincing words let me say, L
did state in my Zebulon speech: that you
admitted to me in a conversation soon
after Atkinsons Inauguration that Hines
polled more votes than Atkinson. When
you deny this statement, Howell, you
lie. You state what is absolutely un-
true in your card when you say you
have not seen Azmon A. Murphey but
twice in two years until the August con
vention. l have seen and conversed
with you at least half dozen times
during the last two years"
Mr.. Murphey concludes his card by
the significant announcement that his
Atlanta address is No. 10, N Forsyth
street; his home address is, GAINESVILLE,
Ca
The matter is now up to Mr.. Howell.

CABBAGE GROWING ON VINES.
Vegetable Freak in Iowa Which May
Originate New Variety.

A Vegetable Freak in Iowa Which May
Originate New Variety.
A Lake Park, Ia, special says that S.
R. Buffman, a market gardener near
tn ere, has remarkable freak. 1t was
planted as a cabbage, but instead of mex
ing head in cabbage fashion, assumed
the form of a vine. At the axis of the
leaves heads of about.two pounds weight
formed to the number of thirteen. In
the fall the plant went to seeI an unus-
ual thing for cabbage, which ordinarily
requires to be set out the second year for
seed.
The seed was planted this year. It
grew well, and many of the plants as
sumed the vinelike habit of the parent,
although majority returned to the nat
ural form,
Mr.. Buffman thinks that it will not be
long before vine variety of the cabbage
plant will be established. BY picking
the heads when they attain a weight of
one OF two pounds the vine forms new
heads,

WOULD SLEEP IN JESUS"
A Little Alabama Girl Crazed by Religious
Reading.


Reading.
The Columbus Ledger publishes the
following sad story: A very sad and
unfortunate death occurred yesterday
near Crawford, Ala, eleven miles west
of the city. 1t was that of Annie G. Rut-
ledge, the little 13-year- Id daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. j. F. Rutledge, and every
indication showed that the little girl
ended her own life.
About noon yesterday little Annie
was found hanging in room at her
fathers house-dead. The little spirit,
fled by its own hands, had gone to eter-
nifty, The little girl was seen last yes
terday morning reading book. 1t was
a religious work, and was entitled,
"Asleep in jesus Shortly afterward
the lifeless body of the girl was found
hanging to bed post in The room. 1t
was suspended by piece of strong
Irvine. The case was evidently one of
suicide.
The discovery naturally greatly shock
ed the family, who were Mortified when
they made it. A messenger was dis
patched post haste for the father, Mr..
Rutledge, who was in Columbus, having
come here early in the day. What a
shock it was to the father when he heard
the strange, sad tIdings.
The entire community was shocked
and saddened by the affair. The posi-
ton of the body and all showed that the
girl had taken her own life by choking
herself to death. The little girl was re-
ligiously inclined, At an entertainment
a few nights ago she spent some of the
time reading the Bible, and, it is said,
praying.
She has several brothers and sisters
Mr.. Rutledge is a farmer, residing a
mile or two from Crawford, and the fam
lily is highly respected one.
The suicide is a most mysterious one,
as no motive is assigned for the childs
conduct. Possibly the reading of the
book had an effect upon her over
wrought brain not anticipated.

TAX RECEIyERs SLOW.
Trouble Brewing in the Shape of Forfeits

T@ouble Brewing in the Shape of FOrfeits
for the Delinquent Counties.
Trouble seems to be brewing for the
tax receivers in nine counties in Georgia
Calhoun, Clayton, Irwin, Richmond,
Dooly, Dougherty, Stewart, Sumter and
Telfair-and unless their returns are
soon made they may be called upon to
forfeit one-half the commissions they
are to receive for this work.
The tax receivers in these counties
haye not yet filed their returns with
Comptroller-Genera Wright, although
the law allows only until the 18th of Au-
gust in which this can be DONE It pro-
vdos that penalty of 10 per cent. for
each dav thereafter shall be assessed
against such delayed receivers, and it
may be that steps will be taken agains
those who are behind time.

The significance Of tue course pursued

known that Watertown is the home of

A Rain of Toads.

A Topeka, Kan. press dispatch says:
There was a deluge of toads, cover
ing an area of more than two miles, ac-
co npanied by heavy rainfall last night
south OF the city. The shower Of toads
lasted several minutes and when freight
train No. 36 on the Atchis son, Topeka e.
Santa Fe railroad arrived at the foot Of
Waukarusa Hillthe track was covered
With them. The wheels of engine 107,
IN charge of Engineer Bates, crushed the
toads, and the track soon became 80
greasy That the Roadway of the train was
stopped. Sand in liberal quantities failed
to make the wheels stick, and the train
was forced to back down to Waukaruga
side to permit the passenger train Ito
pass.
