S5OO.ONO Fee.

Henry J.. Clinton, whose death was
announced few days ago, was one of
the most famous lawyers of the New
Y Ork bar. His most celebrated crimi-
pal case was that of Mrs. Emma A.
Cunningham. accused of numbering
DIR. Burdell on January 30, 1853 1t
ended in the acquittal of Mrs. Cum

all Mr.. Clinton's clients ever suffered
the penalty for the crime charged

ever received by lawyer. 1t was I'M

Street Incident.

"My dear sir" exclaimed Lawyer Bar
tholon4ew Livingston, meeting the Rev.
DIR. Archibald Windham on the village
street, "What does this mean? thought
you were laid up with all sorts. of bad

system has been in a disordered condi-
ton until began taking Hoods Sarsa-
psrilla, which mas put me on my feet and
cured all my stomach troubles"
II don't doubt It," said the lawyer.
"Ths same medicine cured my wife of
rheumatism and my little girl of scrofula.
When they say it's the best medicine
money can buy they only tell the truth,
Eyes, yes, so they do" replied the
minister, and the two passed on.

Sold Us a Gold Brick.

Congressman Lester of Savannah ex-
presses the opinion that Spain swim
died us nicely IN the final windup. In
an interview in the Morning News ne
is quoted as talking in this sarcastic
manner: "Spain undoubtedly sold US
a gold brick. We paid $20,O00,O00 for
the privilege of licking the Filipinos.
and now that we have taken the job we
find that it is not so much tC our lik-
ing as we thought it would be. The
Fiipinos are spoken of as rebels
now. That is the greatest joke of the
age, but very CHASTITY one. The poor
devils are being killed off like flies, but
it is like killing flies, for every one you
kill dozen will come to take his
place OF course our mission is to civ
ilize and christianize them, and we are
doing it nicely"

WHAT A FARMER Says.
Everything He Makes ON Cotton Is Clear
Profit.

Everything He Makes ON Cotton Is Clear
Profit.
The following colloquy with farmer,
found in the Atlanta Journal, has a
good deal of meat in it,
81 don't care two cents, nor four cents,
about cotton" said CLAYTON county
farmer. Everything l make on cotton
is clear profit, anyhow"
Why, how is that?'
"W ell, raise all that my family eats
and all my stick eats right on my place.
Farming is just like any other business.
If any business, from an apple stand to a
cotton mill, isn't self-sustaining it will
go down hill. No individual nor bust
ness can survive as long as that indlvid>
ual buys more than it sells. The ind-
vidual as we'll as business road to ruin is
buying more than selling-for this al
ways means going beyond your means.
THE whole secret of success in farm
ing is to make your farm absolutely
self supporting. Then all over that is
clear gain"
That man not only has horse sense; he
is the inspiration of common sense
itself.

FIRST PROHIBITION COUNTY.
Liberty Closed Up Her Only Barroom Way
Rack in 1882.

1t may not be known, hut it is never
theless the fact that Liberty was the
first county in the United States to adopt
prohibition.
About the year 1882 an act was passed
by the Georgia legislature leaving the
matter Of the sale of intoxicating liquors
of any kind 10 the judge of the interior
court, and Liberty took Der place in the
prohibition column. From that time
until now liquor has not been sold IN
Liberty, except perhaps for one or two
years just before the war.
An old resident of that county gives a
vivid account of the closing up of the
barroom in the county. 1t was at the
forks of the road, not far from Taylor
creek. and was the center OF attraction
for the farmers and other residents for
miles and miles around, particularly on
Saturday. On those days they would
meet and drink whisky, and spin their
yarns and occasi 0 My indulge in free~
for-all fight.
Shortly after the closing of this saloon
a splendid academy Was built near the
same spot, and FIR years this was the
educational center for large par. of
that section.

Why is it that one man is old and de-
crep1d at As and another hale and hearty
at 80? 1t depends on the care he takes
of himself. Often a mans body gets out
If repair-the trouble or TVS until it lays
him ont in bed. Whenever a nan feels
that he is not as we'll as be ought to be,
whenever he is listless, without energy
and without vitality, whenever he finds
that he is loosing weight and that his
ordinary work gives him undue fatigue,
he needs DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery. If he keeps on working
with his liver inactive and his blood
impure-he keeps his nerves and his
body under a constant nervous strain.
He will not be hearty when he is old.
The ''Golden Medical Discovery cures
many so>called diseases because nearly
all illness springs from the same thing
bad digestion and consequent impure
blood. The Discovery makes the
appetite good, the digestion strong,
assimilation easy, and the blood rich
pure.

Dressed in Male attire, She Bet $500 on
Fitz and Stood Treat for Men.
AS a result of wager of 500 with a
well-known sporting man Mrs. Mollle
Riordan, who conducts the Garrick no.
tel on Seventh avenue near Forty second
street, New York, has thu proud distinc-
ton of being the only woman admitted
to the ring -side to witness the Jeffries-
Fitzsimmons fight. This, however, was
through no fault of the doorkeepers.
They did not know that the ''gentle-
man" with handsome black mustache,
wearing checked suit, tan shoes and
Fedora hat was in reality woman.
Mrs. Rordan was slightly nervous
when she arrived at the ring-side, but
recovered her composure enough to bet
$500 with friend on FitzsiT mons just
before the fight started.
After the fight she enjoyed herself for
a few hours, going SO far as to speak TO
and treating some of her friends. None
of them recognized her.

A CONVENTION OF HOBOES.
SOMETHING UNIQUE In THE WAY
OF A GATHERING.
VIII BE Held at DanYille, Illinois, on
June 18th, and Will BE Largely
Attended.

A call has been issued for convention
of tramps to be held at Danville, H., on
June Is. At the head of the movement
is Charles Noe, said to be wealthy
Young man of Sycamore, ILL.,, who calls
himself society tramp" More than
300 hoboes in Chicago are said to have
organized to attend the convention, and
it is believed that several hundred 9th
ers will he 10 attendance. The meeting
is to be held in the open air on sand
lot owned by ''Onor." Cotton, and tents
and empty boxes and barrels will be the
lodging places of the delegates. The
body will probably be in session two or
three days.
The meeting will be unique, ard most
persons who are not hoboes will be apt
to say that it is not only useless, but W II
be menace to the community in which
1T is neld. Such statement, however,
might be unjust to the gentlemen of the
road who purpose assem- bling at Dan
Vile. The prospectus of the convention
saws it's purpose will be to discuss the
condition of it's members and the classes
they represent, and that the foremost
object sought to be attained will be to
devise WAYS and means to make the
struggle for existence pleasure instead
of II burden" 1t is, therefore, to be
meeting for the promo ton Of mutual in
terests, and as such might fairly be re-
garded as being merely unique mani
festation of the great American conven-
ton habit; a seductive aud persistent
habit which seems to affect all sections
of the country without effecting adequate
returns in proposed reforms. Indeed, 1t
night be held that the hoboes have more
real reason for their convention than
there is for many of the conventions that
are held annually, such as the annual
convention of the American Society OF
Keepers of Town Pumps, or of the Ma
tional Association of Chiefs OF COrsta-
bles, or Of the Society of Intendents of
American BailiwicEs or of the Amalga.
mated Directors of Street Paving, or of
the Federation of Foremen of Fire Fight
ers, etc. Such conventions as these are
held every year, about the time of the
opening of the season when vacations
are supposed 20 be in order; and taxpay-
ers are required to furnish money with
which to pay the expenses of persons to
represent" the community at the gath
erings. The conventions, of course, are
for mutual benefit in the discussion of
matters of interest: the vacations at pub
lie expense are merely incidents, against
which the patient taxpayers have not
the heart to kick.
Now, the convention of hoboes will, of
course, have to be paid for by the pro-
ducing classes, just as other conventions
have to be paid for; with this difference,
however, that the hobo delegate will
take his ''hand-out" of cold grub from
the back door and ride to the convention
in a box car or on Is truck, while the
other delegate will demand municipal
hand out of cash for Expenses" and
make his trip in Pullman coach.-Sa-

ROU>DLAP COTTON BALES.
To Satisfy the Demand the Entire Crop
WAL Eventually Be SO Baied-


For once the cotton planter has an ally
among the great corporations. For years
the cotton tie ring. the bagging combine
ard the compress people have all lived
off the cotton grower. There was no way
to fight them, and SO they grew rich on
their enormous profits, which the farm
ers had TO nav. Now the American Cot
ton Company with its Roundup bale is
in the field. and it is so revolutionizing
the cotton handling business that many
of the ola expenses are necessarily wiped
ouu. The farmers must inevitably get
large share of this saving, but the old
compress people and the bagging and tie
trust are raising great commotion
against the American Cotton Company
as though they had always been the
friends of the farmer. Unfortunately tor
them, they never played the friendly act
before, and now the farmers doubt the
sincerity of their repentance.
The Roundup bale is the trade mark
name given by the American Cotton
Company to its round bale to distinguish
il from all other bales. The cotton mills
of New England and of Europe are eager
buyers of this bale because as compared
with all other bales it has many advant-
ages covered by broad patents, which
greatly lessen the cost of manufacture to
the mill. This Rouudlap bale eliminates
two or three processes in manufacturing,
and as the cotton mills of the world are
willing to pay mare for this cotton than
any other it naturally follows that to
secure the highest prices all southern
cotton must in time be put up in this
Roundup form. Mr. VIM G. Lowering,
ore Of the most distinguished cotton
lnIl men of New England, says:
Il do not hesitate to say that the time
is coming when the cotton manufactur.
ers all over the world will insist that
their cotton shall be delivered to them
in the form of Roundlap bale"

time to take DeWitt's Lttle Early Rs-

stipation, bilIousness, sick-headacbe,

A UNIQUE MEMORIAL.
A Thoroughly Equipped Play House for
the Children of Philadelphia.

Thoroughly Equipped Play House for
the Children of Philadelphia.
There will be dedicated shortly in
Philadelphia a unique memorial in the
shape of a chldren's complete and
thoroughly equipped play -house. 1t is
play house, however, only in the sense
that it is to be played in, being SUBJ
stan tally built brick and stone struct-
ure 76 by So feet in size, two stories
high on a basement. 1t is situated in
East park, where large numbers OF
children and nurses congregate every
day when the weather will permit. The
building is in the nan ry of Richard
Smith and his wife, Sarah, and was
erected under terms of wills left by them.
The primary intention of Mr.. and Mrs.
Smith, who must have been fond of
little children, was to provide place
where the little ones In the park might
find shelter from showers, or might
play when the weather was bad, and
where they would be provided with
comforts aud conveniences that are of
ten lacking in park places. The origi-
nal idea has been elaborated until it may
be said the Smith memorial building is a
model of its kind though it may be
doubted that there is another of the
kind in the country.

Improvements in the Raymondskill
Valley.
FAIR PLAY.


Ground has been broken for the
new building of August Bertrend
in Dingman township. The site
chosen is one which will command
fine view of the Raymondskill val
ley, and the house will be a decided
improvement to the landscape.
That immediate neighborhood is
fast assuming a genuine sub
urban appearance. The handsome
residence of Charles Nobs crowns an
emlnence near by, and the cosy Jot-
tage ofMonthemont surrounded with
a finely kept lawn spreads a charm
in the valley, while not far away
the nicely kept grounds of Joseph
Schanno's Chestnut Grove House,
and the commodious summer ho-
tel of o. E. Boilletat add their graces
to the prospect. Further up the
beautiful sheets of water, artificial
ly created by Mr.. Nobs and the Chat
tillon Bros. and the large home of
the latter deck the landscape, and
contribute largely to the beautiful
view. Since the genial Jim Bennett
rechristened that vale Raymonds-
kill Valley, and tabooed the name
of "Chucktown," it has evidently
caught on to the dignity if its pa
tronymic and blossomed with a new
impetus and evinced a commend
able zeal to beautify its part of the
county. There are many locations
for summer homes yet remaining
unappropriated in that r. gion, but
at the present rate they will soon be
ornamented with cottages and the
city man and his family will revel
in the beauty of his surrounding ngs
and drink in the pure and health
giving mountain air. The roads
too, have been much improved, and
a general appearance of thrift and
progressiveness now pervades tina
whole terri tory.
