FACTS FOR A lola NOVEL.
Strange Story of a Fated Family of Kan


The suicide of Carrie Turner of Atchi-
son, Kan, was the final act in a family
tragedy without a parallel The father
was once well to do and the family
well respected First fortune took wings
and few away. and then the wide cir
Gle of friends began to narrow. One day
the father killed man. Many say there
was great justification, but he was con-
victed of murder and sentenced to the
penitentiary The mother, some time
after this, fell from virtue and went her
way A little later ON all elder sister
was swept into the whirlpool of big
city and was lost
Alone in the world, penniless, friend
less and almost helpless, Carrie Turner
was still brave and hopeful and wom-
anly. By and by she was wooed and
won, but only to be betrayed. There
came day when she realized her now
helpless and hopeless condition. She
fed to strange city, locked herself in
a room in hotel, placed pistol to her
temple and ended her young life and at
the same time completed the awful
tragedy of her family. - Cleveland

JUDGE B. b. BOWER.
Has mo AnimOsities to Express Toward
ANY Living Man

ANY Living Man
The cambridge Democrat, his home
paper, has this to say of Judge Bower
and the manner in which he accepts the
result of the congressional primaries
Since the close Of the congressional
campaign for the nomination on the
18th inst, Judge Bower has renamed
quietly at home in the bosom of his
family of children-(to whom he is de-
vOtedly attached consisting of lovely
daughter just biOOmed into woman
hood, grown son just beginning ca
reer at the bar, and four sons, ranging
from 10 to Is years of age.
The judge accepts his defeat grace
fully, and seems entirely resigned to
the result of the recent primary; and
talks like a man who has no regrets to
overcome and no animosities to express
toward any living man.
For IA years official duty has been a
master at whose call he never failed to
respond, and now that he is out of of
fetal life he feels freedom unknown
in years, and this he is enjoying and
preparing to enjoy more fully.
The judge has large landed interests
to the development and improvement
of these and the practice of law he will
devote his attention, surrounded by his
loving children and in the enjoyment
OF the society of his friends at home and
throughout the country.

A LIVELY TIME.
How North Georgia Denizens Spend the
Sabbath.

Sunday is occasional ly lively day in
Lumpkiu county, judging from this ac-
count in the Dahlonega Signal:
1t seems that last Sunday was set
apart by some to do their fighting, in
stead of serving the Lord. Just after
Van Crow, Pierce Edmonson and Albert
Stuman had had their difficulty in Dah-
lonega mounted courier came to town
post haste after the sheriff to stop diff
tiuclty between Wash Grizzle, Alfred
Walker and Buck Evans down at Bill
Dodson's, some two miles distant from
town. The officer mounted his steed
and was not long in reaching his desti-
nation and putting a quietus to the dis
turbance. In looking o er the blttle-
ground he found ab ut quarter of an
acre of corn torn down and mudhole
or two as dry as if they had been wiped
out with sponge, where Wash and
Buck had been rolling and tumbling
about, endeayoring to pluck out each
others eyes. All are relatives, and an
overdose of corn whiskey created the
whole trouble. Buck wouldn't do to en-
gage in a duel, for it is said that he shot
seven times at Grizzle, who didn't hea i
the bullets even whiz.

THE PLEASURES OF WHEELING.
A Society Incident That Began Awheel
and Ended Afoot.

The other night one of the most popu-
lar young gentlemen of Americas call d
on belle from a neiahboring city. The
young lady is not bicyclist. About
9:3O O'Clock the young man proposed a
moonlight ride on a tandem bicycle.
The proposition was agreeable. The
beau ordered q tandem. The weather
was lovely The moon shone brightly
and the breezes were bracing. While
"scorching' along at lively rate over
the beautiful bicycle drive (?) in Lection,
more than mile from the city. the
young lady's dress became entangled in
the chain, and was literally torn from
from her body. The cham was taken
off, skirt extricated and found to be in so
dilapidated condition that it could not
be worn again. The lady was taken to
residence near by, and the young man
mounted the tandem and started to
town for another dress. But "troubles
come not singly." lie soon found that
tire was Uunctured. He had to make
the trip to town and back on foot.
When he got back with the dress he
found the young lady ready to travel.
Ike ladies of the house had fixed her IN
50 she could venture out into the moon
light. They walked in, eloquentlv
discussing the pleasures (?) "bicyc-

THE SEASON OF DoG.DAYs.
Wherein Vegetation Ceases to Grow and
Nature is Dreary Indeed.

The ''dog day" season has just begun,
and good many things happen in this
period of forty days that are not generally
known. Nothing in the way of vegeta-
ton flourishes except turnips; even the
grass does not grow during "dog-days."
1t is now that all snakes go blind and
are more venomous than at any other
time, while dogs have rabies and are
more inclded to be vicious. More peo-
pie commit suicide during "dog-days"
than in any other given length of time.
Diseases are more fatal than at any other
season. Mocking birds will not sing a
note for forty days, and all nature will
seem dreary and dead until "dog- days
end about September 9th, the close q
the forty days.

THE ANTS TALKED ABOUT IT.
One of Their Number Murdered, and They
Gave the Alarm.

Gave the Alarm.
1t is becoming the general belief among
naturalists that all living creatures have
some communication with each other,
at least to the extent of making their
wants, fears, ETC., known to others of
their species. A writer on ants recently
Investigated the matter as far as those
interesting little insects we're concerned
He saw a drove of ants of ii small. black
variety, which were apparently moving
to new quarters, those going In certain
direction all carrying eggs or sick and
helpless relatives, while those moving in
the opposite direction appeared to have
just deposited their burdens and TO be
returning for another load of "househOld
effects" They were probably pretty
well along with their work, judging by
the leisurely way in which they logged
along, and upon meeting they would
occasionally put their heads together as
though chatting about their new quar-
ters or some other interesting subject
1t being question in the naturalist's
mind whether they were really talking
on not, he hit on the expedient of muir
! dering one of their number to see if the
others would run and tell what had hap
pened. He says: 1.-THE eye witnesses
of the murder fastened away and laid
their heads together with every ant they
met, whereupon all would turn and
scamper away. No more ants
passed along that path during the day"

SECRETARY SMITH sNUBBED.

Cabinet Wilt be Severed.
One of the most interesting problems
in Washington today, says press dis.
patch, is the question whether Mr.. Hoke
Smith, of Georgia, has resigned, or will
resign asisecretary of the interior. There
is widely prevailing impression that
the lpreeident's action in selecting a
West Virginia man, at the request of
Postmaster General Wilson, for Union
Pacific railroad director, an office under
the control of the interior department,
was intended as direct snub 10 Secre-
tary Smith, and was meant to be SO re
garded by him. Rumors are thick that
because Mr.. Smith has espoused the
democratic nominees his resignation as
a membe of President Clevelands cabi-
net will either be required or enforced
within very few days.
