ST. PAUL, JUNE 23.- A dispatch to

ATLANTA, GA, JUNE ga pas
senger train on the Southern railway
which left Macon at 700 %. m ran
into Washout near McDonough, Ga,
tonight 1t is reported that there was
a heavy loss Of life. The train crew
is said to be lost and only seven pas
sengers are known to be uninjured
The Southern railway officials here
have up to this hour only the most
meager advices, but express consider
able apprehension.
The wreck occurred at a culvert
near the Ocomulgee river, a short dis
tance from McCough. A cloud burst
occurred tonight and flooded McCon-
ough. The train went into the wash
out without a note of warning and des-
pite the pouring rain the wreckage took
fire.
The train was composed of one sleep
er, two day coaches and two baggage
cars The Pullman caught fire but be-
fore it was totally destroyed the body
of Captain Wood was rescued.
Supt. A. G. Jones fears that the en-
tire train crew is lost. He is totally
unadvised but from the nature of the
wreck it must have been a bad one, and
that the passengers too have met with
heavy disaster.
The Constitution has received the

PROMPT PAYMENT.

A capital story is told of an old
Methodist minister who believed
IN improving every opportunity to
''sow good seed"
Travelling along country road
one day, his horse lost shoe and
the minister stopped at the next
blacksmith shop to have the dam
age repaired. Several loafers were
about the shop. The minister
told them who he was, inquired
their names and occupations. and
had CHEEKY talk with them.
When the horse was shod, he
asked what was to pay, and the
blacksmith said carelessly, "Oh,
nothing; just remember me in
your prayers.
very WE'LL said the minister
promptly, "As my motto is, pay
as you 60, I'll just settle the bill
now"
Down on his knees he went, and
the lcafers and blacksmith follow
ed his example, willingly or re-
luctantly. The fervent Methodist
prayer was both comprehensive
and practical, and at its close the
minister mounted his horse and
rode off, carrying with him the
hearty good will of his congrega-
ton.

The country is flooded with
agents of every description. So
many people hunting for an easy
job, to keep from pulling the bell
line over the mule. We have a
notion of putting up q wooden
nutmeg factory and starting us an

a worthless article, and you can
sell anything. A patent tongue
Yankee can come down here with
patent pillow with two horses and
a tongue on the pillow II foot long,
and convince a Southern farmer
that he can turn that pillow and

and never break down stalk Of
corn; offer the farmer little
time and buys the pillow, sets it in

of it.-Greensboro Herald.

COBB COUNTY LITERARY UNION.

The meeting of the Executive Com
mittee of the Cobb County Literary
Union was called May %, 1900, by Pres
ldent Gaines. Several of the societies
were represented and one new society
was admitted to the Union, the society
at Olinsville.
The time for holding the annual con-
vention will be August and 4, 1900.
Each society wishing to take part at
that convention will be allowed 80 min
utes in which to render their programs.
The place for holding the convention
will be selected at the next meeting of
the Executive Committee, which will
be July IA.
All parties offering medals and prizes
for the different contests must offer
the same before the 18th of July. We
have already one medal offered by Col
John P. Cheney for the best recitation
by young lady.
There will be two daysof the conven-
ton this year and we look for a bright
and rousiDg time. F B. Barber, James
McLeskey and VIM. Attaway, as a
committee, will select speakers for the
second day of the convention. At the
next meeting of this committee the
judges for deciding the different con-
tests will be selected.
Let each society prepare their very
best program for this convention.
The work seems to be full of interest
and the outlook favorable.

LIVING IN THE COUNTRY.

The fast is that, while the
farm promises no large profits ex-
cept to men whose situation is
favorable, yet the business of farm
ing does provide a comfortable
living and something over. 1t can
be engaged in on very small capt.
tai or no capital but muscle. A
living is sure, nc matter how
small the farm. A man who is
far enough along to have as much
as $4,000 invested can bring up a
family comfortably and make
money besides in the South. The
great trouble III the cotton States
Is the lack of scientific agricul-
ture. The farmer usually has no
business training at all; he rarely
keeps books; he works too much
by fits and starts. and he seldom
diversifios his crops. Those who
do so and who make "every edge
cut that cam" as the merchant,
the manufacturer and the Iaborer
in the city do, can make money.
There are too few farmers, indeed,
who stick to their business as
closely as the ordinary city man
and his employees, who never quit
work on iainy day, and whose
holidays are confined to q week or
two in midsummer.

The election of the judges by
the people is Populist demand,
and recent occurrences have given
ocular demonstration of the great
mistake of the legislature and the
people by its adoption. The judi
ciary should be as far removed
from filth and slime of politics as
the east is from the west, and the
next legislature should recommend
the question at the next general
election by constitutional repeal
amendment-or any other way
that is constitutional-and let
the governor appoint and the sem
ate confirm. Down with the pres
ent election system-world with
out end.-Bainbridge Democrat.

"What kind of a boy does a
business man want?" replied a
shrewd, practical man of concerns
the other day. "Well, | will tell
you. In the first place he wants
boy who don't know much.
Business men generally like to run
their own business and prefer
some one who will listen to their
way rather than teach them a new
kind. Second they want a prompt
boy, one who understands Z
O'Clock as not ten minutes past.
Third, an industrious boy who is
not afraid to put in a little extra
work in case of need. Fourth, an
honest boy, honest in service as
well as matters in dollars and
cents. And fifth, a good natured
boy, who will keep his temper,
even if his employer does lose his
now and then"

The largest wheat crop that
Kansas ever raised was $1,000, 600
bushels. State Grain Inspector
McKensie says that the 'crop of
the present year will be consider

Some railroad men, however, are
of the opinion that the total will
be nearly 100000 bushels greater
than Mr.. McKenzie's estimate.

IAN interesting story attaches to

on application. Positively no one has
any right to them'"
Miss Ball. an old lady, was sought
by the reporter. who found her at the
address given in the advertisement.
The house in which she lives is occu-
pied jointly by Miss Ball and Mrs.
Elizabeth Jones. 1t was entered last
week by a negro burglar, who attack

forgotten was evident when the in
quirer was met ut the door by three

MISS Ball finally appeared and ex-
planned the advertisement. She said
