One Woman's Experience

The fact that such an alternative is en-
tirely needless; that there is perfect and
unfaiing remedy by which her troubles
may be absolutely cured in the privacy of
her own home without resort to these re-
pugnant methods, comes to many wom-
an like a revelation of mercy and deliver

WHY HE DIDN'T GO
The Southerner Had No Money to
Spend "Foolish"

One Of Chicago's lyceum bureau lecturers
has just completed a tour through the
south. lHte tells, this story of an experience
in the town of Bowling Green, Ky:
1.-THE morning after our lecture 1 was
stroling down the only business thorough
fare in the town, when 1 was accosted by
an old man who hobbled along with the
aid of a cane and who was in the neigh
borhood of 70 years of age. He was chew
ing tobacco copiously and letting everybody
know 1t by the amount of saliva he sQuirted
toward the gutter at intervals Of three OF
four steps. He walked up to me and after
the usual salutation of 'Howdy, strangerT
he said:
I'D liked mighty powerfuiFwell to "a
seen that show you all give at the theayter
last night, stranger. Fact is, ! laid off per-
ticker to go to. But, stranger, the fact is.
and you all might as we'll know it, fer the
last five years times has bin so burned hard
around here that amt had so cents to
spend foolish"
The same lecturer says that in an interior
Kentucky town he saw this sign on the
window of the principal hardware store in
the place:

A Chicagoan just returned from a trip

from the newspapers. The negro was shin

turned to the recent battle of Santiago. The
rortherner asked the young colored man
why he didn't join hands with his brethren
and go down to Cuba to help free the Gu

A WOMAN'S SAD PLIGHT.
CAME FROM ARABIA TO MEETREI.
ATIYES IN DAWSON.
Could Not Talk English, and Was
Found on the Streets in Des
titute Condition.

A woman who could not speak a word
of the English language was found on
the streets of Dawson Thursday in a
destitute condition.
She could not cell where she came
from or why she was here, ana no one
knew what to do for her beyond provid-
ing food.
The situation was relieved, however.
when the Georgia & Alabama accommo.
dation train came in from Albany. 1t
so happened that among the passeng ers
on that train was Matte Topeche, an
Arabian woman who runs fruit stand
in that city and can speak the English
language fairly well. She recognized in
the stranger one of her own race. and
with her as interpreter it was learned
that the woman's name was Frozie Nazeer
and that she left Arabia three weeks
ago for the United States, her brother
and sister, who have been peddling
jewelIy in and around Dawson for
several months, having written her
to meet them in this city. When
she arrived in Dawson her relatives were
not here to meet her, haYing left few
days before on trip to some of the
neighboring towns.
The Topeche woman sent the stranger
to Albany, where she will be cared for
until her brother and sister can be found.
She arrived in Dawson on one of
Wednesdays trains, and while aimlessly
wandering about the city went to the
house of negro, where she was given
food and lodging for the night.
She was fairly we'll dressed and seemed
to keenly feel her destitute condition
among a strange people, frequently cry
ing while surrounded by the curious.

rpop.rnI1
in Terrell.

Wednesdays election was ground
swell for democracy. Considering that
the vote was unusually light through
,nt the state the victory was the most
oornIpte that has ever been known in
Georgia.
Colonel Gamblers majority for gov
ornor is $4,000, double that of two
vaars ago. and the rest of the state
ticket Jared as well. The total vote
for governor was $4,000, of which
Colonel Gambler received 10000 and
Colonel Hogan $4,000. Only twelve
counties gave Mr.. Hogan maiorities,
and these were Appling, Coffee, Colum
bia, Forsyth, Franklin, Glasscock, JEFF
ferson, Johnson, Lincoln, McDufffe,
Oconee and Taylor. The populists, did
not elect single senator, and will
have only about fifteen representatives
in the lower house.
There will be two or three independ-
ents in the legislature. In Polk
county Ex-COngressman Everett de-
feated the democratic nominee
with populist assistance, and in GlYnn
Harry F. Dunwoody, the democratic
nominee, was defeated by the candi
date of the good government club.
The vote on the constitutional
amendments to elect judges and solic
itors by the people was close and their
fate is not yet known, some claiming
that they were adopted and others that
they were lost. 1t will take the Off
cial count to determine it.

THE ELECTION IN TERRELL.

Seven Hundred Votes Were Cast.

There Was But Little Interest and Less
Seven Hundred Votes Were Cast.
The election in Terrell was one of
the most uninteresting and apathetic
ever known in this county.
The consolidated returns Thursday
morning showed that the highest vote
cast IN the county for a demcratic
state candidate was 500 for Colonel
Gambler. For county officers the high
est democratic vote was $50, Clerk of
Court DOZier and Coroner Daniel each
receiving that number. The highest
populist votes were SO for for Mr.. Ho
gan on the state ticket and SO for Mr.
Jumper on the county ticket.
This shows that the popullst party
is practically dead in this county, and
that there is no activity among them
even when the democrats are are most
Indifferent.

653, and the returns as consolidated
