BADLY BURNED.

Ina. the five year old daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Charles Thornton, while
standing before the fire at her grand.
mothers, Mrs. I'D. Ruede, on Tues
day, 9th ult,, had her apron to catch
on fire. The little girl not being aware
of her clothing being on fire, ran across
the room to get her toys, which famed
the flame. Her two little sisters, who
were in the room at the time, first
saw the flames us they began reaching
up around the child, and commenced
screaming. The SCREENS attracted lit
tie lna's attention and seeing that she
was on fire, became frenzied thfright
and ran across the room and got behind
a door. Her sister, Miss Willie, came
in and tried to smother the burning
clothing by wrapping a stiff rug around
the child. This was Intellectual, and
Mrs. Thornton came with blanket
and enveloped the child, thus extin-
gushing the flames, but not before the
child's clothing was partially burned
off The little girl was burned about
the arms, legs and face badly and pain
fully. Linseed oil was Immediately
poured on the burned parts, and thus
to some extent greatly helped to re-
iieye the suffering child. Dr. Nolan
came and gave needed attention.

WON'T BUY.

Mr.. I. B. Brady, of this county has
about seventy-five hogs, and he killed
some the other day and tried to sell
them to the Armour and Swift pork
packing establishments in Atlanta.
They turned him away with the an
swer that they didn't buy any South
ern product, that they bought from
Chicago and Kansas City. This shows
that there is a disposition on the part
of these concerns to shut out and dis
courage the raising of hogs in the
South, evidently for fear that the
South might become formidable
competitor of the West in this valuable
industry. The purpose is for the West
to continue to feed the South, but our
people must raise hogs and sell to one
another and thus shut cut the West.
Our smoke house must be in the South
and not in the West. Let hog and
hominy continue to engage the atten-
ton of our farmers and we will make a
home market

that she had no money for him. He
passed on the inside of the fence on
the sidewalk and said: Eyes, you have
you've got money in that pocket
book" BY thai time parties came

LAYING CORNER STONE METRO.
DIST CHURCH.

On last monday morning at IL 80
o'clock large number of our citizens
gathered around the foundation of the
new Methodist Church building to wit
ness the laying of the corner stone of
that edifice now undergoing construc-
ton.
The stone is of Georgia marble, beau
tifully polished, and was the gift of the
Mcneil Marble Company of this place.
On the west side of the stone, as placed,
is this inscription:
'1835-1898. Marietta Methodist E.
Church South, Organized A. D., 1885.
This house erected A. D., 1885,"
On. the north side of the stone is the
inscription: peace be within thy
walls. Psalm CXXII-7..
DR.. ]. w. Quilliau, pastor of Metho-
dist Church, gave out the hymn:
And will the great eternal God
On earth establish His abode?
And will He, from His radiant throne,
Ayow our temple for His own"
This was sung by the choir of male
voices, consisting of Messrs. d. F. Nc
Clatchey, Jr., Robert Edwards, Clar-
ence Galloway, and Smith Grogan.
Prayer was then offered by DR.. Quill
liam, followed by reading appropriate
passages Of scripture.
He then stated that owing to the bit
ing cold weather, the masonry would
be omitted until more favorable wealth
er, when the archive would be hermet-
ically sealed.
DIR. Quillian then announced that the
following articles would be deposited in
the corner stone: Bible, Methodist
Hymnal and Discipiine-these three
were the itinerant Methodist minis
ter's main factors by which, as pio-
neer, with saddle bags across his horse,
he rode through this country preach
ing the gospel, until now there are
three million Methodists worshipping
God. He also mentioned the deposit
ing the church paper, the Wesleyan
Christian Advocate, of Atlanta, the
front page containing the pictures of
all the Methodist Bishops; also gave
him pleasure to place a copy of the
Marietta journal along with the rest,
paper that faithfully mirrored the
happenings, enterprises, progress and
growth of our city: also manuscript
containing the names of Pastor, Build
ing Committee, Trustees, Stewards.
Sunday School superintendent and the
officers of the various societies of the
church, and list of the contributors
to the new building.
DIR. Quillian then stated that the add
dress he intended to deliver on the oc-
casion would have to be deferred owing
to the severely cold weather, but the
address would have been based on four
words: Gratitude, duplication, loyal
ty and congratulation. He briefly COM
mented upon these in their order in
language beautiful and eloquent.
Praise God from whom all blessings
tlow," was sung and the benediction
pronounced.
Thus another important event is
marked in the construction of the new
church building, sanctificed with praise,
prayer and song.
