What constitutes an accident! \
man died not long ago in Vermont in
consequence Of pcrforation OF somc
indigestible material swallowed with
the food. He was the holder of an
accident policy insuriDg him, according
to the usual formula, against bodily
injury sustained through external, vio-
lent and accidental means" The COM
pany refused to pay on the ground
that the scausc of the mans death was
not an accident, but the court has de-
cidcd that this was an accident injury
within the meaning Of the policy. In
New York State it has been decided
that the taking of poison by mistake is
not an accident III tho meaning of n
similar insurance policy, but in Illinois
the courts have ruled exactly the oppo-

The invention of process by which
cotton seed hulls ma. be converted
into superior paper furnishes quick
and prime market for this part of the
plant almost equal to that which exists
for the lint. The inventor, Mr.. II.
Thomas, now living in New York,
writes letter to Col. VIM. A. Hemp
hill, OF Atlanta, in which he says he
has passed through the experimental
stages Of his process, and now, forti-
lied by ample capital which he had no
difficulty in securing, he is about to
erect mills, the first one OF which he
promises to Atlanta. This invention
surpasses the usual discovery of skill,
because it enhances with, great value
the cotton plant, which already COM
mands so large share of the CONNER
eial world. Paper is one of the quick
est articles of merchandise, being con-
snmcd as soon rs made, and command
ing heavy prices. The fact that the
cotton seed hull can be applied to this
purpose gives it. a market of instant

Corner Creek Paragraphs.

Winter, With all of her pleasures and
disDleasurcs, is here to greet us. We
arc indeed very glad to welcome old
winter again, and to reflect back for u
few moments of the happy and joyful
times that we have enjoyed during the
balmy weather of winter. The socia-
bles and other gatherings that the
young people of the country have the
privilege OF participating in is surely
the happicst Of times. just think!
Christmas is fast drawing upon us
| again. Only Il few weeks Of duration
and the merry holidays will be here for
both youngand old to enjoy themselves
once more.
We are living in IL fast age it seems.
The nineteenth century will soon be
wiped out and will be numbered with
the things of the past. Let the begin
ninE OF the twentieth century find us
all with new determinations to live
better, worl, more for peace, happimcs>
and prosperity, and the upbuilding Of
our fcllowman and country.
The farmers Of this locality are very
busy Just now sowing tliciv small grain
crop, which will be about as large IL
crop us that of last year. Several of
the farmers are experimenting with
oats in Tho drill to sec il drilled oats
will not stand the severe winter better
than sown broadcast
The health Of our people is good
with few exceptions. Miss Minnie
Gassaway is quite sick ut this writing
with fever.
The McAdams school opened on
Monday, Oct. Goth, with good attend
ancc. with Miss Lou Gassaway as
teacher. Also the I,arkers Creek
school is i'll prosperous session under
the efficient contrcl of Miss Eula
Young, an accomplished young lady
from Grove Station, who will no doubt
give entire satisfaction to patrons and
pupils. Miss Leila Carwilc took up
her school Mt En0ree on Monday, 9TH
inst, and Miss Ora Bigby opened her
school Mt Friendship to-day.
Miss Maggie Kay, u charming Young
lady from Aaron, Is visiting in these
parts to tho delight of several
Marvin Bigby has presented himself
with new top buggy.
Mr.. j. N. Shirley has realized about
three hundred bushelsof potatoes from
this years crop. The potato crop of
this section was net very good one OH
account of tho dry weather of August
Nevertheless, We will have "plenty to
eat as long as they last"
Little Miss Etna Carwile, daughter
of Mr.. J. ID. Carwilc, has been very
sick for the past month with fever.
Hugh Bigby, from Pclzer, spent a
few hours in our midst Sunday with
home folks.
News reached us q few days of Nc
kinley's landslide. 1t was somewhat
worse than we expected it to be. We
had faint idea that Bryan would gain
votes from that OF '0G, but, he "fell
Off" 1t seems like it is q hard task for
Democracy to reign supreme again like
1T once did, but "thcre'll como n time
in the distant future" when our nation
will be ruled again with Democratic
President. However, we Southerners
will never know the difference between

believe the Democratic party will learn

leaders, and then victory will again
perch on it's standards. If it keeps on
it's present lines, the defeats of 1896 and

says Chambers Journal. The deaths con-
tinued with alarming rapidity, and then,
as Lampsey had said, there was actually
nothing wherewith to weight the corpses.
The steward, Ross, the Scotch sailor lad,
and one or two of our own private native
servants-under the stimulus of reward
paid down on the nail at so much a head
their mouths and noses muffied in car
boic saturated towels, constituted the
burial party. These men, penetrating
tween decks, dragged the corpses up the
hatchway, across the deck and pushed
them through the gangway doors, just
as they were, for there was little time
and less inclination to sew them up in
canvas, as had been done at the outset.
Being unweighted, the bodies refused to

by the same current, they kept by the
