TERMS OF THE TRADE.
Democrats Promised the Pop
ulists to Withdraw Sewall
and Substitute Wat
son.
STARTLING STATEMENT.
Peek, of Georgia, Says Jas. K. Jones
Made the Trade, and Must
Now Carry out Agree
ment.

Atlanta, Ga, Aug. Hon. w.
L. Peek, who ran for governor on
the populist ticket in 1892 and head
ed the Georgia delegation at st.
Louis, makes a significant state
ment to the Atlanta Journal to-
day as follows:
Conyers, Ga, Aug. Ito the
Atlanta Journal: 1t was understood
with the Democrats that if the
Populists would nominate Mr.. Bry-
an for President and a southern
Populist for Vice-Presldent that
Mr.. Sewall would retire from the
race; or, in other words, that he
(SewalD would be taken down and
our candidate for Vice President be
placed on the ticket with Bryan
With this understanding Watson
was unanimously nominated. This
was the broad ground on which the
Democrats and Populists met.
Having been deceived by promises,
we made it a certainty on our part
and reversed the order of business
and nominated the Yice-President
first.
Senator Jones, chairman of the
national democratic committee,
was there, together with many
prominent Democrats from differ
ent parts of the United States, urg-
ing this course for the success of
financial reform. We did not in
dorse Bryan, but made our platform
and nominated him tor President
by over tWo-thirds vote. Watson's
nomination was greeted with as
long and loud outburts of enthusi-
asm as was Bryan's, and | beg leave
to say now there is but one course
to pursue If good faith is to govern
this union of silver forces, viz: Wat
son electors must be put up by the
Democratic party from Maine to
California. 1t would be a lack of
fidelity to ask or do otherwise. In
the south, yea, in Georgia, it would
be an objectionable sin and unfaith-
faithfulness on the part of the
Democratic party and we hold them
responsible for the result.

What Constitutes a Family Medicine!

A preparation which is adapted
to the relief and cure of ailments to
which members of a household are
most subject, and which is not only
alleged to do this, but has long and

reliable family medicine, Among

experience and the sanction OF the
medical profession indicate as de-
serving of popular regard and con-
fidence, is Hostetter's Stomach Bit

eradication of dyspepsia, constipa-
tion and biliousness, the three most
frequently occurring ailments that
vex mankind. Derived from a
botanic parentage, it is efficient as
well as pure and wholesome. 1t re-
lieves nervous disquietude and mac

Differ Greatly From Specimens of Same
Species Found Elsewhere.
Australia has been called "fossil
continent because it presents types of
life which have persisted or become insip
niiicant elsewhere. Some time about the
beginning of the tertiary period of geol-
ogy CONFUSION of nature severed the
connection which at one time existed be-
tween Australia and Asia, and from that
time the former has been left to develop
herself on her own lines. A belt of deep
sea, known as Wallaces line, cuts
through the Malay archipelago and all
the fauna to the south of this line, with
the exception of many birds and Il few
recent importationS, are of special and
characteristic type. AT the time of the
severance small creatures of the marsu-
pial or kangaroo type prevailed all over
the world. In Australia these have de-
velopcd slowly and undsturbed In the
rest of the globe they were subject to
fierce competition, giving way before the
strong races, till at length nc advanced
marsupial is left, with the exception of
the opossum; and in him the struggle for
existence has developed Il cunning I'M
known to his Australian kinsmen. In
Australia, however, the marsupials have
had it all their own way, and it is inter
eStlnS TO notice now they have ,ueveloped
into many various forms to suit their en-.
vironments-c. e., there are flying SPUR
reis specifically resembling the flying
squirrels in America, but unlike them in
their underlying structure. The hairy
birds, too, such as the apteryX, belong to
n type extinct elsewhere. And finally
much of the vcGeta tion-the gum trees,

AS OLD AS HUMANITY.
Men in All Ages Of the Wcrld Delighted
in Hunting and Fishing


Somebody has asked which is the oldest
sport, and started discussion that has
already put the antiquity of games be-
yond the middle ages. Hunting and fight
ing were primitive mans chief occupa
tons.
These, rs civilization developed were
gradually converted from being means of
livelihood into pastimcs. But is mpos
sible to .ell exactly when the change took
place, for it is not even yet complete, and
what is sport to the squire and amateur
is necessary work to the gamekeeper and
professional soldier.
Nimrod, Noah's great grandson, was Il
mighty hunter before the Lord, " and rs
he was II "mighty one in the earth,n he
probably hunted for pleasure. This is
the oldest record OF sport.
The stag and its kind, which make the
greatest demand on the skill and endur-
ance of the hunter, would probably be
the first animals pursued for pleasure.
To hunt the lion was kingly sport from
the earliest times.
The Egyptian monuments show that all
kinds of hunting, rs we'll as fowling,
were followed for pleasure. The Olympic
games were probably the oldest athletic
sports, and their origin is lost in antiq-
uty. They are said to celebrate Jupiter's
defeat of the Titans.-New York journal
