AFRICA WON.

A large crowd attended the regular
meeting of the Christian Endeavor So
ciety at the Presbyterian church last
Thursday evening. After the regular
business had been transacted and a rec
itation by little Miss Annie Legg, very
interesting debate took place as to
which field of labor the society would
contribute $50 to support a missionary
China or Africa. The advocates of
China were Mr.. Oscar B. Keller, Mr..
Percy Legg and Mr.. A. S. Cohen; for
Africa, Mr.. Edward Groves, Mr.. w. B.
Beattie and Mr.. E. Leon Faw. The de-
baters had excellent speeches, full Of
valuable information and argued their
respective sides with ability and credit
At the conclusion. China plate and a
black plate were passed among the
audience and contributions were placed
on the plate which.the contributors de-
sired should be selected for the money
to go to. Thelplate representing Africa
got9 the most money and that field
OF mission work will be supported by
the society.

INDIGESTION.

Indecision loses many men their for
tune. Friday morning, Marietta man
stepped up to another man standing in
front of Read & DuPre's, and enquired
what will you take for that second
hand wagon up at your house" eff
teen dollars What will you giye?"
was the reply. Give dollars" was the
offer. "The wagon is yours" came the
quick acceptance. "Hold on" said the
first party in confusion. II want to
see the wagon" mo, that is your
offer, and 1 don't let ten dollars break
up the trade" The first party hest
tated, and wanted further time.
Another party standing by said, "Ill
take the wagon at $500" "All right, u
and they walked off to store to get
the money. The first party followed
srd offered six dollars for the wagon
and the party who bought it let HIM
have it, getting one dollar profit with
out paying out cent, while the other
party paid one dollar for lack of de-
cision. This is why men of decision
get rich and those who daily pay for
their experience.

SATISFIED WITH SENATOR CLAY.

| So fer as comment has occurred in the
state press anent the next senatorial
election the trend is all one way.
Every one seems to be satisfied with
the record made by Senator Clay and
there are no suggestions from any
quarter of opposition to his reelection.
Senator Clay is one of the younger
group of democrats in the senate, yet
but few of his colleagues of any age en-
tered upon their careers with better
equipment for painstaking, expert and
wise legislation. His experience as
speaker of the house and president of
senate of the Georgia general assembly
had made him familiar with the detail
work of law-maker. During his SER
vice in the Uuited States senate he has
demonstrated his alertness, industry
and capacity to handle national ques-
tions with understanding andssstates-
manship.
The fidelity with which Senator
Clay has watched after the interest Of
individual constituents and the state
at large has won for him the esteem
and support of his fellow-citizens in
measure thaT men seldom command.
For this reason one would be sanguine
indeed to endeavor to supplant him at
this time in that field of service where
he is so conspicuously satisfactory.
1t will be mark of confidence well
deserved that none should contest the
Endorsement that the people so evident
Iy mean to give him by his reelection
to the high office he now adorns. AS a
faithful son and servant the state will
accord him that cheerful and becoming
reward. Atlanta Constitution.
Senator will be reelected without
opposition, as hesdeserves.:

MUST RETURN TO THE FARM.

The following is an extract from a
speech recently made by Booker Wash
ington, the colored school teacher:
With the negro, as with every weak
and inexperienced race, it is important
that he be taught that his salvation is
in learning to own and cultivate intel
hgently and skillfully the soil. To the
negro just now this is the wheat, all
else the chat. Agriculture will prove
our salvation and the race should be
slow to abandon the farm. Just now
large proportion of the race needs
that education which will make the
youth return to the farm and produce
90 bushels of corn where only % grew
before, rather than yield to the temp
tation to go to city and attempt
to live by their wits. Those who would
help to save my race should use their
influence to keep the negro out of the
large cities, and especially the cities of
the North, These are some of the les
sons'that Hampton and Tuskegee In
stitute are constantly teaching"
The above is true, but there is no
earthly power to get the negro to re-
turn to the farm. He is in the cities
by large majority, living by his wits
and theft, profiigate ard idle. His ten
dency is to abandon the farm, and &c
to the cities. AS soon as you educate
one, he thinks farm life is beneath his
importance and dignity. He wants tc
: teach, or preach, or loaf. There are
many Industrious negroes and they
generally get along all right, but the
young negroes are drifting to the cities
drinking whiskey, gambling and going
to the bad, Booker Washington see;
this, and he is advising his race to &c
back to the the farm, as in the cultiva
ton Of the soil is their salvation.

CANDIDATE FOR SPEAKER.

A good story was told in Atlanta a
day or two ago. A candidate living in
Macon, in sendiug out letters to pro-
spective members of the next house
over the state inadvertently wrote to
one of the fifteen candidates in the race
who lives in Marietta,-how could he
know all of 'em were in earnest-and
asked his support and advice. The
other replied that he could not give
his support for the reason that he was
in the racel himself, but since his ad-
vice was solicited he would cheerfully
give that. He would, therefore, advise
his good friend to stay out of the race
as he was bound to be defeated. The
incident caused ripple of amusement.

I The wording of the warrant is as fol-

Newton, adopted daughter of him. the
said W. II. Wyatt. >Jr.'
The warrant was served by Sergeant
Sowel at the Second Station, yesterday
evening at 6:30 o'clock, when Mr. Wyatt
reported for duty. Mr.. Wyatt hmm ediate-s
ly appeared before Magistrate Herman
Nolte and was bailed in the sum of $50
for his appearance in the Ponce Court this
morning to answer the above charge.
This story was the subject of much
gossip yesterday, especially on the part
of those who looked WITH displeasure upon
WAITS work in breaking up the gam
bling houses several weeks ago. There
were ali kinds Of reports current about
his alleged cruelty.
When seen yesterday In reference to the
matter Mr.. Wyatt had the following. to
say upon the subject: THE young girl is
seventeen years of age. She is the
daughter Of my deceased sister. and hau
her in charge. It was my duty to raise
her and on Thursday 1 round It neces-
sary to whip her for misconduct. used
a small! strap to chastfse her. She diu
not cry and do not believe hurt her.
| corrected her just as I would one of my
own children. When I took her to RAISE
it was with that understanding. The
whole matter is "a family affair and
| whipped her BECAUSE she needed it,
Mr. Wyatt said that he had punished
his niece upon complaint OF neighbor
for conduct which the girl should not
lave been guilty of.
He said he had taken her out of ST.
Pauls Church Homo eighteen months ago.
and SINCE that time he had been as kind
to her as he knew how. to be.
His wife said that she had not been
hard on her niece and that she believed
the whole trouble was caused by the de-
sire of the girl to so into one of the fac
tories OF the city and earn for herseIr a
salary. She and her husband opposed
this because they did not want the girl
to BE- subjected to the temptations that
/ would confront her in such work. The
girl is with her aunt. who lives on Chest
nut Hill:
Should the charges be sustained in the
Police Court this morning the charge OF
conduct unbecomEg an officer and ger
tleman.' Will doubtless be preferred against
Mr. Wyatt before the Board Of Police
Commissioners. The duty of preferring
the charges will fall upon Captain Hulce.
It was thought that Captain Hulce
would suspend Mr.. Wyatt from duty un-
I til after the decision Of Squire Graves.
in the Police Court. this morning, but
|! tbs was not done. and at the station
last night the sergeant In charge said
that Mr. Wyatt was worSing rs usual,
ant, would work throughout the night.
The genera punishment inflicted when
thes above charges are sustained is $40
md cost. hut there are few who think
hat Mr.. WYATT will have to pay the
! fine; IN fact. most people who know
ne circumstances OF the matter think
that Sfr Wyatt was perfectly correct
IN correcting the girl for her miscon-
duct.
