IN LUCK.

Mr.. Charley Nell does not have to go
hunting to bag game. lie says he was
standing last Thursday on the depot
platform when he saw large bird APP
parently flying from the direction Of
Barnes pond. As IL came nearer 1t
assumed larger proportions and he at
once discovered that it was wild tur-
key. IT passed over the depot and he
ran around the building and saw that
il fell from exhaustion in Hon. s A.
Anderson's yard lie went over and
caught IT. and had IL for dinner on Fri
day. lie said it war without doubt n
wild turkey AZ IL had acorns and forest
seed in les craw. He says he never
tasted finer wild fowl meat in his life
The Lord will provide, but the Thanks

A WISE SUGGESTION.

In charging the grand jury of Rich
nond county, Judge Crimson made this
reference To an evil that needs correc-
ton not only IN that county bat else
where throughout the state. Referring
10 the alleged buying Of votes Judge
Crimson said
II think law should be passed by
the legislature forever DISTINGUISHING
the man who sells his vote I have
heard IL said that there IL very strong
argument made in favor Of the selling
Of votes For instance, when man is
in dire circumstances md needs the
money. But again repent, when q
man makes merchandise Of his suffrage
he should be forever disqualified.
That Is all well enough, Judge, but
what about the man who buys the vote?
1t takes two 70 make a bargain, and it
would seem that the man who debauch-
80 chastity is as guilty as the de-

SUIT FOR 825. 900.

Mrs, Ludie M. Wilson, administra-
trix Tor the estate Of George T. Wilson,
liled suit in the Fulton Superior court
Thursday against the Atlanta, Knox
vile and Northern Railway Company,
to recover alleged damages to the
amount OF $4,000 for the death of
George r. Wilson.
This is the third time this case has
been before courts, having come up for
hearing in the superior court of Cobb
| county, where verdict for n consider
able amount was rendered in favor of
Mrs. Wilson, and having been carried
from there to the supreme court of
Georgia, where the Judgment of the
Cobb county court was reversed, owing
10 the fact that the case should have
been brought originally in the city
court OF Atlanta.
1t Is claimed in the petition that the
suit was broughG before Judge Reid on
January 2l, 1901, but he dismissed the
case on the ground that the case was
then pending hearing in the Cobb
county court.
Mrs. Wilson claims in the petition
that on December u, 1898, Mr.. Wilson
was crushed, mangled and burned to
death IN n wreck which occurred near
Knoxville, Tenn which IL is claimed,
was caused 10y an open switch. He was
at the time an engineer on the road,
and was u young man 20 years old at
the time of his death.
Mrs. Wilson is represented by attor-
neys Hoke Smith and II. @. Peoples, of
Atlanta, and Clay X Blair of Marietta,

Not much. The man who is disposed
to carry a pistol concealed now in vio-
lation Of the law will be equally dis
posed to carry pistol concealed
with such law in vogue. There is no
law that is absolutely prohibitory. All
laws civil and divine are violated, and

thinks he can suppress "blind tigers

much so as the law against carrying

ters many from open violation. With

no safety OF person or property. The
law that IL enforced by officials is the
most efficient in accomplishing the pur-
