We are pleased to note that
there is more interest than usual
taken IN wheat sowing this season.
If our farmers wish to make their
business they must "deviate" from
the old regime "all cotton" is the
morphine habit of southern farm
ing, once in it and it's hard to
break off, and that reminds us that
if the Seaboard Air Line consents
to change their survey" and 60
by the Gem City it will have to
"deviate" from it's original propo-
sition of getting the nearest line
between the Gate City and the
estate City," however the gain
may offset the loss or even sur
pass it. "Quen sabe?"
A dispensary in Marietta within
the scope and meaning of the
South Carolina institution would
mean reirogression in the morals
and good department of our people
which IS something greatly to be
deplored, for the morals and man
ners of county is the true index
to their intelligence and civiliza-
ton. 1t is often we'll to let we'll
enough alone.
While we cannot agree with the
editor that G's eleven ounce potato
was i "whopper," still it is of
ideal size to bake in an old fash
Toned spider and then steep in
keg of water for later beer.
We see no convincing reason to
change our views with regard to
"Victol's" further observations
on the bird and car problem. Tc
partake of the speed of a moving
body the object must start with it
or come III violent contact-if
swift moving-wlth 1t, before the
speed of the swifter motion can be
communicated to the slower NOV
ing object, we would remind Bro
ther "V" that we are not discuss
ing the flight of insects but of
birds, though we venture to say.
that a horsefly, essaying to pass
through the last window of sixty
mile car, would zip against the
end of said car before he could
"catch onto" the latter's speed.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inhamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is infiamed you have rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, deafness is
the result, and unless the inflammation
can be taken out and this tube restored
to its normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever nine cases out of ten
are caused by catarrh, which is rothing
but an inilamed condition of the mu-
cous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of deafness (caused by ca
tarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls
Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars free.

THE BEST REMEDY FOR GROUP.
From Atchison, Kan, Daily Globe.

This is the season when the woman
who knows the best remedies for Group
is in demand in every neighborhood
One of the most terrible things in the
world is to be awakened in the middle
of the night by a whoop from one of the
children. The Group remedy is almost
as sure to be lost, in case of Group, as
revolver is sure to be lost in the case
of burglars. There used to be an old
fashioned remedy for Group, known is
hive syrup and tolu, but some modern
mothers soy that Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy is better, and does not cost so
much. Give this remedy as soon as the
croupy cough appears and it will pre-
vent the attack. 1t never fails and is

WATERLOO, Ia, Sept. 12.-(Special.)-
Mayor Martin and a number Of other citi-
zens yesterday started Horace Choate on
his way to the home of his daughter in
Boston, Mass. He has been a resident OF
this town for over a year and has at
tempted to make a living selling books.
He failed 20 make a living and when
bills we're pressing he told a pitiful story,
which drew sympathy from all who heard
it. Not many years ago he was president
OF a bank at Newburyport, Mass, and vice
president Of another bank. Telegraphic in
quiry developed the fact that what the old
man said was true. Enough money was
raised to carry him to Boston, and he
started with a light heart. His daughter is
quite we'll to do and will make him com

years. Mr.. Cullison's law partner is au-
tbority for the statement that under no
circumstances will Mr.. Cullison accept the
nomination. which was given without con-
sulting him. It is expected that Mr.. GULL
son will make a formal announcement today
declining the empty honor.
In the event Of Mr.. Cuilison declining. II
Is said that the nomination may be rendered
to Ed tor Brown Of Hastings, who before
the convention In Council Bluffs last

disposal Of the nomination lays with Chair

The company has hitherto contributed

FIERCE WORK OF MOUNT PELEE
Professor Heiuprin Describes the Inst
Eruption of the Vol
canO.

FORT DE FRANCE, Martinique, Satur-
day, Sept. 6.--Prof. Angelo Heiprin, presi-
dent of the Philadelphia Geographical So
ciety. who is in Martinique in the interests
Of the National Geographical society, has
made the following report Of the recent
eruptions Of Mount Peiee:
THE scene OF destruction in the last
eruption OF Mount Pelee far surpasses In
extent that Of the eruption Of May s, when
st. Pierre was destroyed, and includes the
broad area lying between Macouba and Bar
bet, and involves Haul Tours de Bourbon,
Basse Pointe, Morne Ball and Ajupa Bouil-
lon, where upwards Of 300 persons were
killed, as well as Morne Rouge, with a
death list Of probably not less than LOO
persons, Morne Capot and the heights
somewhat this side OF Fonds st. Denis. the
blast, however, leaving the last place un-
touched. Great cinders fell over the region
Of Grand Rivierre. and lie Precheur is COW
cred deep with ashes. In Carbut the ashes
lie a foot deep and nearly the same amount
covers the ruins of st. Pierre. The whole
of Morne Rouge, with the exception Of
about four houses and the beautiful church.
has been swept to the ground and the
greater part Of the town has been burned
up.
THE recent phenomena were precisely
like those of May s, death resulting in most
cases from contact with the terribly swift
and hot blast, which burned and which
suffocated. The sulphur emitted from the
crater during the recent eruptions was COM
paratively insignificant, although 1t densely
permeated the ash cloud which fell over
Precheur. The electrical illumination dur
ing the storm were wonderful and greatly
surpassed those Of July ..
There was no barometeric disturbance
to indicate a coming eruption. During the
time l was on the volcano on the afternoon
Of the eruption Mount Pelee was in terrible
activity and refuge from flying bombs had
to be sought in a hole. The great cone
could not be seen. On the way dow the
mountain the party was enveloped in mud
and ashes, the center OF ashes and steam
clouds being almost vertically over US.
THE destruction of the several towns
and localities was simultaneous, occurring
at $40 in the evening.
"There is much uneasiness all over the
island Of Martinique and this is intensified
by the knowledge that La Soufriere, on
the island Of st. Vincent, is again in full
activity.
THE illumination OF the eruption on
ST. Vincent, as seen from here the night
of Wednesday, was most terrifying, and on
Thursday morning the ash cloud from the
st. Vincent volcano carried darkness to
Fort de France for a period of nearly six
hours. No details OF the casualties on
ST. Vincent have as yet been received
here"
