A NEW ANTI-BARROOM BILL.
SENATOR TURNER THE AUTHOR OF
THE MEASURE.

IL Is on the Lines of the Bush Dispen-
sary Bill, But Differs From That
Measure i'm Several Respects-A
Written Request From Majority
of the Voters Must BE Secured Be-
fore LIQUOR Can BE Sold in Amy
County.
Atlanta, Ca, Nov 19.-The expected an
ti-barroom, or dispensary bill, made its
appearance in the Senate to-day. 1t was
introduced by Mr.. Turner Of the Seven
teenth district and on his motion, after
being read the first time, was referred
to the temperance committee. The bill
provides a scheme similar in general plan
to that of the Bush bill of the last ses-
sion, but there are some notifications.
The Turner bill provides for the manu-
facture and sale of domestic wine from
fruit and grapes produced by the manu-
facturer. 1t prohibits the sale of liquor
in any county without a written request
from a majority of the qualified voters.
1t also omits three sections of the Bush
bill, which Senator Turner does not con-
slider material to the purpose of the meas
ure. One of these is the clause making
United States license prima face evil
dence of the sale of liquor.
Another is the provision that the word
person shall include corporations as well
as individuals.
In accordance with the recommends
tion of the governor in his message, Sen
ator Comas will introduce bin to make
counties liable within the limit of $1,000
for injury done to prisoners while in
custody of officers of the law, and such
damages to be recovered by the usual
process of law by suit against the coun-
ty. The bill also makes it the duty of the
governor to investigate any case of injury
in which it appears that public officers
have failed to take due precautions
against violence to prisoners, and If it
appears to be the fault of such officers.
TO remove them and appoint successors.
Mr.. Comas offered a bill to-day author
izlng the ordinary of Appling county to
sell bonds
Very little was done in the House.
Among the new bills was one by Mr.. Nc
kee of Dawson, which proposes to repeal
the general registration law.
one by Mr.. Slaton of Fulton provides
that the supreme court shall arrange for
the examination of applicants for admis-
sion to The bar, and shall pass upon such
examinations, and another by Mr. Ellis
OF Stewart, provides for the election of
public officers by reclamation In the leg
islature when there is only one candi-
date. This change in the proceedings is
regarded as highly desirable as it would
save the state much expense. 1t took
three days to conduct the formal election
of judges and solicitors this session after
the caucus had nominated, and there
was no opposition. If these officers could
nave been elected by reclamation one ses-
sion would nave been sufficient.

A New DODGE.

A new trick was worked on one of
the charitably disposed citizens OF
Washington recently. A woman in
great distress went to him and told a
pitiful story Of poverty. Her husband
had been sick for a year, and ,one by
one the, articles of furniture had gone
until the only thing left was n chair
and pile Of old bed clothes. Her hus-
band had died and his body lay In a
wooden box, she not being able to pro-
cure a coffin. The gentleman appealed
to put on his hat and accompanied the
woman to a vacant room. There was
the box, the pile Of filthy rags and n
broken chair, just as she had repre-
sented. He put his hand i'm his pocket
and gave her what money lie happened
to have with him, about $50, and left,
promising to return In few hours.
Suddenly recollecting that cane he
priced highly was placed against the
wall, he went back after IL, and sitting
upon the wooden box was the supposed
corpse, counting the money. He got
the cane, but the swindlcrs kept the
money

Childish Courtesy.

"Unlcss you've been there yourselves
you've no idea how much a teacher
knows Of her pupils home surround
ings, though she may never see her
pupils outside of school hours" said
a bright little "schoolmarm" recently.
"In my school were a few who lacked
politeness. did not know how to
teach it to them at first, but decided
to be polite to them at all times and
watch the effect I'm satisfied. The
little ones are decidedly amusing ut
times in their attempts to do as teach.
er does.'"
IL would be well for many mothers
to try this method of teaching polite
ness. Don't scold nor threaten the
children. 1t soon becomes an old story,
is met with knowing smile or frown,
passes for all 1t is worth and no more
Teach the boys to be gentlemen and
the girls to be ladies. Politeness pays
everywhere and at all times, and n
smile will win the coolest nature IL It
comes from true heart. Begin at the
beginning to train children. BE firm

The FATHERS Teachings.

The boy loves his mother probably
more than he does his father, but so
far as relates to the affairs of life in
general and on its hard side, he has ten
times the confidence in his fathers
practical and available wisdom that he
has In that of his mother And If his
father finds 1t necessary in the conduct
OF business to strain one or two of the
commandments the boy will keep on re-
peating the commandments to his moth
er and commence breaking them with
his father, and that, too. without feel
ing that the sinuosity of the procedure
involves any great amount of incon-
sistency. The only thing
that will save the boy and hold him In
such way true to the fixed pole Of
rectitude that no considerations Of
place or circumstance can defect him
is that he be under the domination Of
father whose life in the midst Of the
world incarnates the principles learned
from the mother in the midst Of the
home. The boy will believe in the
feasibility of his mothers doctrine Of
righteousness IL he sees his father take
It out and exemplify it under the stress
Of business.
The fathers life TO this degree meas
ures the power Of the mothers tuition,
and is rs the hand of God Fastening or
postponing the fulfiIlment of her long
ings and prayers fer the children Of the

This involves lot of cutting and scrap

also n serious objection, as, no matter

The feminine mind this year leans
toward cushions. Here are some Ideas
toward making eccentric affairs:

less than the ribbons or cigar boxes.
These, IL the father or brothers of tho
house are addicted to the comfort Of the

cured, and tribute OF ribbons may be
exacted from the masculine portion of
her friends. The ribbons are not long
enough to extend the entire length OF
the cushion, but they are combined and
pinned together by feather stitching In
silk, and the effect of that cushion,
when completed, will be just as novel
as the idea.
Another cushion is one In which the
heart Of the small boy of the family will
heartily rejoice. This Is white affair
which bears the flag of every nation
painted or embroidered thereon. In n

Timothy Is Exhaustive.

In a recent letter Theodore B. Terry
quotes Mr.. j. s. Woodward as saying
that he would not SOW timothy on his
farm on any account. and that he
would shoot any man whom he caught
sowing timothy on his. farm. That
however, was a time when wheat in
Western New York was safe crop for
twenty-five to thirty-flve bushels per
acre, and worth $1.50 n bushel. There
was good reason in those days in al
ternating clover with wheat, and grow
ing as little timothy as possible. But
with the decline Of wheat to n cent
pound or less it Is not so paying a crop
TO farmers near to market as Is good
timothy hay. If the land can be fer
tilted to grow wheat it will pay equal
ly well to fertilize 1t for timothy and
TO sell the product. +. But even where
timothy is grown, experience has shown
that the grass keeps in the ground
longer without running out il red or
alsike clover is sown with 1t. The
timothy hay will be nearly free from
clover after the second year, and the
first years growth will be better for
home feeding than all timothy.-Ameri-
can Cultivator.
