While the current stories about
the nefarious work of buncoing &c
many people out of money in the
so called green goods game" are
not altogether authentic, enc ugh
is told to make il the plain duty
OF the authorities TO take such
cognizance of the matter as is
necessary for thorough investi.
CATION. Such practices should not
be temporizsd with in any CON-
munity, much less in a community
that makes any prstentions to hon
esty aud the pursuit of legitimate
business. IL there had been any
exchange Of green goods" Uncle
Sans iron hand would be neither
slow nor tender in ferreting out
the truth Of the matter, b I
in this instance the inordinate
love Of money, more or less doml-
nant in all men, aud the strong
desire to got rich quick" have
been used as avenues of approach
to field of operation as repre-
hensible as passing counterfeit
money, and yet not amenable to
the law against that crime. The
legislator, if his effort 10 reach all
things that are seriously detri-
mental to public morals surely has
left no gap down here, and the
guardians of the law should, and
doubtless will, see to 1t that the
seal of condemnation is officially
set upon any. if there be suob,
who have engaged in this rather
disreputable business.

for the nonce. As the story spreads
the amonnt Of money said to have
been lost grows and grows. The

much truth in the statement as

Of the latter to astonish the ma
tiyes. Legal proceedings for the
righting of the wrongs are likely
to develop, unless there 10 a CON-

that the grand jury will make a
thorough investigation at the APP

commonwealth to punish the gull

TWO BADsF|RES
At SAME TIME
Col. e. p. Green's DWELL
ing and rlr. Jake
BrOZnaCk's Store.

On Thursday morning about one
O'Clock the alarm of fire was sounded
and the elements in southwesterly
direction were brilliantly illuminated
1t was ascertained that Col. E. P.
Green's two story, nine room, dwelling
was on fire, the house being located
about one and half miles from Mari
eta on the Powder Springs road, being
known to many as the McClatchey or
Herrin place.
At the same time the large stairway
leading over Mr.. Jake Broznack's store,
underneath which is closet con-
Meeting with said store, was on fire.
The Hook and Ladder Company went
to the help of Mr., Pat Green and the
lire companies began to fight the fire
it the store of Mr.. Broznack, 1T being
difficult to reach owing to it's location,
but they succeeded in extinguishing 1T
before it got good Roadway. About
three o'clock the fire rekindled and
and broke out again, recalling the fire
department the second time, and this
time the firemen effectively put the
fire out.
The damage to Mr.. Broznack's stock
OF clothing, shoes, hats, ETC., is mostly
10y water and smoke, and is very great.
His insurance is $500. and his mis-
fortune is to be regretted.
Mr.. Green's home was completely
destroyed, also two room tenement
house in the yard, occupied by Mr.. Ed
Cash and family, smoke house and
the well house. All his household
goods were destroyed except a few
pieces of furniture and two beds. All
the clothing of the family was de-
stroyed
Mr.. Green and family were soundly
sleeping, unconscious of the house be-
ing on fire, when they were awakened
by Mr.. Cash violently bursting open
the door, Mrs. Cash having been kept

awake during the night by toothache
and thus was the medium to apprise
Mr.. Green and family of their great
danger and enabled them to escape
fromthe burning building.
The Hook and Ladder Company ar
rived in time to save Mr.. Green's barn,
then on fire in the roof The barn is a
very large one and is worth $500, and
Mr.. Green appreciates this timely SER
vice rendered.
The origin of the fire is unknown, it
having commenced in the kitchen.
There was 81 800 insurance on the
building and $500 on the furniture.
The building couldn't be rebuilt for
less than $1,000, and his household
goods, furniture, wearing apparel, ETC.,
were probably worth $1,000, which
makes Mr., Green's loss very heavy
one.
His legion of friends sympathize with
him in his misfortune.

DEAR SIR; You know your paint
er: we don't; we only know painters
in general.
There are two sorts, as there are
two sorts Of everybody. else. One
paints as well as be can: the other as
poor as he can and get business.
The one who paints as well as be
can is all the time learning; the other
one knows it all now.
Josh Billings says, sIt's better not
to know too much than to know SO
many things that amt So" There
are lots o. things in paint that "a'n't
So" Lead and oil is one Of 'em.
Devoe Ready Paint lasts twice as
long; is better in every respect: is
ready to dip the brush in; you can de-
pend on the colors; no mystery; no un-
certainty; costs no more: cost less.
We hope you employ Mr.. Open Mind
Painter, and not Mr.. Know-it all
now. awst 1sd& S.
Yours truly,

Two Great Feasts.

By rare coincidence of time two
of the most sacred of all religious cele-
brations will occur on April II. The
days are Easter, the holy day Of the
Christian religion, and the Feast OF
the Passover, one of the chief celebra-
tions of the Jews. Only once in every
thirty or forty years do these days
come together and By another strange
feat of the cycle of time this year the
Feast of the Passover and Easter fol-
low Christmas day, which was cele-
brated by the Jews as the Feast OF
Lights. The Passover is observed ir
memory of the eros ing of the chill
dren of Israel from Egypt and the de-
liverance from bondage. 1t begins on
April II, 1908, and lasts seven days,
but only the first day is recognized by
the present-day Jews.
