WILL PRESERVE ANCIENT DESK.
One Made Many Years Ago Still In
Use.

When the johnson & Harold Ware
house 90. occupy the splendid new
building now in process of erection,
Mr.. Harold will take along with him
an old piece of furniture which will be
more highly priced than all the hand
some new furnishings. While the

Jacksonville during the OWL War Mr..
U. B. Harold was in one of the de-
partments in charge. Prisoners able
to work were required to do 80, and
among other things a number of pine
desks were made by them for use in
the Confederate Offices. Mr.. Harold
used one of these, a plain, implanted
pine board affair, and ct the breaking
up of the prison it was brought to
Americus. Mr.. Harold has used the
old desk daily since 1864, nearly forty
years, and prizes 1t more highly than
he would one made of rosewood or
mahogany.

Many Americas Tax Payers Failed
to Make Returns.

Several score of Americus taxpayers
will have the pleasure OF paying a
double tax upon their property in a
few weeks. Despite the leniency of
the Council and repeated warnings
given, many citizens positively refus-
ed to make returns of their property.
The returns will now be made by the
clerk, based upon the amount given in
last year, and this will be doubled on
each delinquent. The books finally
closed last night, and there is long
list of those who refused to make

According TO reports, strenuous ef-
forts are to be made to suppress gam
bling frauds on the ocean steamers. IT
is said to have attained disgracefui
proportions. The victims are many,
and the card-sharpers are bold and de-
FAINT. This recalls a story which OLD
Capt. Judkins, of the Cunard lfne-in
his day the most famous of Atlantic
captains-used to tell. There were
stringent rules against gambling on the
Cunarders. but there was another COM
pany that was most lenient in the mat
ter. -
One day a hot game was in progress
on one of the boats of the latter line.
There were several lockers on, among
them the ships captain, who had come
in for a moment. Another ~bystander
noticed that one OF the players, while
dealing, dealt himself cards from the
bottom of the pack and fortified him
self for four aces. Shocked at the
fraud. the D%ystander looked at the cap
tain; but the captain gave no sign or
having seen the trick. Pulling him
away from the table, the bystander
said:
Did you see that, captain?"
'See WHAT" was the retort.

challenge brought a reply from B. F.
Clay Of FernwOod. who offered in evil
dence a wonderful display of his work.
Mr.. Clay is IS years old and a ma
chinist by trade. In the illustrations
given here are shown two varieties of
chains each of which he cut out of one
piece Of wood.
Thirty years ago Mr.. Clay started
to white, after seeing an exhibition
Of whiting in Barnum's museum. He
has completed single, double, triple,
Q~uadruple and anchor chains. One
chain is composed Of links, within
each Of which there are eight other
movable links. A walnut triple chain
is marked with ornamental bits,
including a revolving globe on a fixed
axis, all cut out of one stick of wood.
The fve-sided link, or anchor chain,
shown is Of cedar. The idea was taken
by Mr.. Clay from a watch chain. An
other section Of this chain is the eight
link production referred to above, with
a fancy bit forming a pentagon, the
hOllowed-out inside containing a dou-
BILE loop knot made OF the sticks core,
A chain made Of links, each con-
tanning six links, is Of the twist va
riety and lays fat. Mr.. Clay has made
many articles besides chains, such as
tweezers, pincers and furniture sets,
but he has made a speciality of chains
and believes that in that line he stands
foremost.
