Colonel Bayard married Darlington
Kings sister, the widow Hand, and
moved to Rome. He was courtly
gentleman, a descendant of Chevalier
Bayard, and h,s grandfather, was
Nicolas l}ayard, French TIugucnot.
He was cousin TO the Senators Bayard
of Delaware. He was an expert
swordsman, and loved to show you the
back stroke by which his ancestor,
while flying from some troopers, slow
ed up his horse and, as they came up
on the gallop, cut their heads OIL one
by one with this same back stroke.

B. +. Tracy, who was secretary of the
navy. One of Mrs. Bayard's daughters
married Bishop Quintard, druggist,
doctor, preacher, soldier, chaplain and
then bishop. He got beautiful and
dutiful wife, and everything else he
asked for. Kind-hearted and lovable
as woman, he always carried satchel
full of cake and candy for other pco-
ple's children when he travelled on the
train. We college boys knew him well
IN Athens when he was first drug
clerk and next doctor: and we let
him pull our teeth just because he
was 80 kind and genial.

caricatures of our Presidents are very
smart and funny, but the people who

they are shameful. You can't dc.

A STORY or GEN. MORGAN One
of the most interesting stories that |
find in the old war scrap book is that
about the capture of John Morgan by
the home guard in Rabun County,
Georgia. IL was published III The
Athens Watchman in 1864. The story
as gwen in the paper Is as follows:
An incident connected with the
remarkable escape of Morgan from his
Northern Imprisonment came to our
knowledge the other day, which will
bear repeating. Having made applica

ing and been refused because they
thought he was an impostcr, a third,
who had seen him before and recognize
cd him, invited him to his house,
where he spent the night. In the
meantime it had been currently re-
ported in the village and vicinity that
an impostcr, pretending to be John
Morgan, was at the house of Mr.. -.
Next morning about twenty Of the
Home Guards assembled, and under
the direction of their efficient captain,
arrested him. He quietly submitted

prove his identity he would accompany

or two gentlemen who had seen him
recognized him, satisfied the Home
Guards that they had captured the

he was at once released. Before lcav

commanding IN the highest terms the
vigilance they had displayed, advising
them to arrest all persons who coult
not gives Il satisfactory account of them
selves, and closed with the playful re-
mark that twenty men had accom-
plished in Rabun what it require,
forty thousand in Ohio to do. The
crowd gave nine cheers for Morgan
and he proceeded Oh his way to Wal

SOUTHERN PACIFIC is NOW IN
GOOD HANDS.
BUT CHANGE is A SURPRISE.
Union Pacific and the Vanderbilts
Now Have the Controlling
Interests.

San Francisco. Feb. 2.--President c. NJ
Hays. of the Southern Pacific company.
when asked if he thought the sale OF, the
controlling interest in the company to
the Hartman syndicate would lead to
important changes of management or
policy said: ;
II see no prospect of any marked
change in Southern Pacific affairs, so, far
as the public interest is concerned. What
difference does it make to the public
whether a railway is owned by one man,
or whether it's voting stock be by
hundred different interests, so long as
t. ia managed in accordance with a broad
and liberal policy which conserves the
best interests of the public as much as
the interest of the Stockholders? I do
not look for any startling changes in
conditions as the result of the change
Of ownership. The Southern Pacific will
go ahead very much as if no change had
taken place. Its interests, in a traffic
sense. are pretty we'll defined and are
not to be disturbed by any new or revo-
lutionary policy. In fact, I d6not look
for any material change of policy. SaS&
Francisco and California will not per-
ceive, by any outward Indication, that
there has been a change OF ownership.
I do not think the sale means one set
or offices for the Union Pacific and
Southern Pacific. The two roads are big
properties and can best be handled by
separate sets of officers as at present"
Referring to his own position. Mr..
Hays said he had no reason to suppose
that it would be disturbed. He said he
was on terms of friendship with the
announced members of the purchasing
syndicate. and spoke highly of Mr.. Har-
riman's ability as a railway man. Pres
ident Hays spent ile night in his private
ing on tour of inspection of the west
ern division of the Southern Pacific.

William H. Crocker, speaking of the
big deal. said:
The Vanderbilt railway and steamship
interests will now have direct line be-
tween Hamburg and Hong Kong across
the American continent. Whatever the
Vanderbilts do they do well. and if it is
possible to improve the service of the
Southern Pacific roads the new control
lers will do it. With the increased con-
nectiOns of the Southern Pacific San
Francisco stands in a fair way of rapid
Improvement in Importance as a ship
ping point"
Third Vice-President Stubbs, Of the
Southern Pacific. who is a warm personal
friend of Mr. Hartman. says the change
of ownership of the road was as big
a surprise to him as it was to the other
officials of the road.
