From the Atlanta News.
When Governor Terrell was asked
today if he would offer a reward for
the apprehension and arrest of the
uen who participated in the lynching
Of Reed and Capt at Statesboro, as he
h9d for the unknown lynchers in
bIanElin county, he said:
tine names of the members of the
Statesboro mobsare known
"The reward was offered in Franklin
county to find out the names of the
mob.
when the grand jury of BuIoch
county meets shall turn over to them
the testimony of the court of inquiry
which contains the names of several
OF the alleged mob and | shall tell
the erandjury:
GENTLEMEN HAVE DONE MY
DUTY, NOW YOU DO YOURS"
With this straight from the should
c. statement Governor Terrell has ell
fectually stopped all questioning as to
why he offered a reward for the lynch
ers in one county and not in another.
A reward of $3.50 was offered by the
governor for the apprehension Of the
unknown parties who lynahed j. N.
Ware in Franklin county on Sunday
The verdict of the coroner's jury was
t. the effect that the negro was lynch
e1 by unknown parties and the sher-
iE further requested that ID -eward be
offered for the apprehension and ar
rest Of these unknown parties.

The Deans DcIicacy.

DR.. Pigou. the dean of Bristol, had
been pointing out the openings in
church work TO an audience of clerics
and lay women of devoted lives. In
getting down TO specific cases, as he
confesses In his book, "Odds and
Ends" he said:
Next to opportunity we think of the
instruments fitted to the opportunity
Naturally our thoughts turn to widows
who are widows indeed when God
has taken aside from the world by sor-
row for life of devotion to his serv-
ice"
The dean paused. He was thinking
secondly of unmarried women. Why
he did not say unmarried women he
cannot understand. He thinks he may
have been nervous about using the old
fashioned word spinster, so he said:
Mex, we think Of those women
whose prospects of marriage are slowly
fading"
There was an instant roar Of laugh
ter, in which the archbishop and some
of the married lay women joined. The
discounted dean deprecated the usl-
seemly merriment as best he could.
But he did not mend matters greatly,
for he went on:
MANY of whom 1 have in my minds
eye"
There was another burst Of laughter,
and Dean Pigou went hurriedly on to

THE COTTON ROLL wrEv11.

THE COTTON BOIL WEEVIL.
IA, adult beetle; B, pupa; c. larva All
enlarged. Vertical lines show actual
size.l
coming slightly hairy or pubescent.
Down the middle of the upper surface
Of the thorax this pubescence becomes
somewhat longer and so dense that it
forms whitish line. Some adults are
found whose body color Is essentially
black instead of a dull chocolate.
Again, some are more distinctly light
brown. The pubescence soon wears of
somewhat, and then the weevils look
darker. This accounts for the frequent
confusion among planters as to what
the genuine weevil is and how it looks
The active feeding period of the
adult weevils is during the day. At
night they travel and fly but very lit
tie. 1t has often been noted that a
weevil observed in any particular
square at sundown Is found within the
identical square at sunrise unless dis
turbed during the night. During the
vigorous growing season of cotton the
weevils go about from plant to plant
by short sluggish flights. When cotton
Is knee high or more, it usually hap
pens that they fly only across to the
next row before striking another plant,
on which they light.
Early in spring, when the adults
come out from winter quarters, they
are yoracious eaters and feed readily
on any young cotton to be found. They
feed for the most part by getting up
among the developing leaf buds be-
tween the seed leaves, into which they
eat, just as they do the young squares
later. In spring, before squares are
formed on cotton, the weevils often
eat a small hole into the tender grow
ing portions of the stems or bra e 81
They h-ve a habit OF eatipg into II %
somewhat different from that of eat
ing into a square under cover The end
of the stout, slightly curved snout Of
the weevil is provided with small,
clawlike jaws, with which it actually
eats hole rather than bores it, as the
popular notion is.
When preparing to feed on any eX-
posed portions of the plant, the weevil
nearly always uses its sharp mandi-
bles at the end of the snout to rasp the
outer bark, so as to enable it to get
hold of the ragged ends, which 1t then
deliberately pulls off and lays on one
side. After doing this it eats the ten
der portions underneath. This process

BURNING THE YULE LOG.


The Custom One of Ancient Origin.
The YuIe Candle.
The custom of burning a large log
of wood which is known as the Yule
log is very ancient in its origin All
through the middle ages every farm
house. cottage and castle in England
burned its Yule log upon the hearth,
the log being dragged in with much
ceremony.
At Yuletide when the great log famed
In chimneypiece and laugh and Jest
went round.
The word ''Yule" itself seems to be
derived from the Anglo-Saxon "Geol,"
meaning December. Earlier still the
Yule or midwinter, feast is seen In its
most lourishing state among the Morse
men, who commemorated the fiery sun
wheel with n mighty feast. They be-
lieved that during the twelve nights
the actual movements of their great
Odin, or Odhinn, the god of storms,
and other deified beings on the earth.
The Yule log, with its CHEEKY blaze,
comes to us across the centuries as a
dim memory of the fires Lit to celebrate
the setting out of the sun on his north
ward journey toward the light and
warmth of summer
A large candle known as the Yule
candle used also to light the Christmas
eve festivities. 1t was bad omen IL
the candle burned out before the even
ing was at an end.-Detroit Free Press.

coda iieecs T.sat were Once Conn
mon. bat are N5M Rarely Seen.
Recent mention of the disappearance
of the $3.50 gold piece from circulation
and the premium this coin commands
as 4 curio has set many TO rummaging
in old pocketbooks and bottoms of cash
boxes and drawers in search of odd or
out of date coins. Some have found a
$3.50 piece, but not many. The So
piece, once quite common, but always n
sort of curiosity, is oftener found, and
many have specimens of the little gold
coins representing % cents and 90
cents which were not minted by the
government and probably have not so
much gold in them as they represent.
They used TO pass as coin. but were
never in general circulation, being so
easily lost that they soon became
scarce. One of the handsomest coin
relics seen is a $40 gold piece bearing
the mint stamp of 1799. 1t is larger
than the present $40 piece. The owner
has it hung in a band and wears it as
charm OH his watch chain. The own
er says he refused an offer of $50 for
this relic. The old octagonal $50 pieces
were quite common in California in
early days, when gold dust was largely
used as a circulating medium. They
were made of pure gold, and, while
they had not the elegant finish of the
gold coins minted by the government
in these days, many still remember
them as the handsomest coins they ever
saw. Many people now would consider
them handsome ON account of the $50
in them.-New York Tribune.

Wears Her Hair Short Now.

AS she stepped bareheaded into the
elevator in q Broadway business build
ing all the men in the car admired her
wealth of chestnut hair. 1t lowered in
a pompadour tier, built up mansard
fashion, above her rosy little cheeks.
But it glistened suspiciously. There
was a smell of brilliantine. henzine or
Romething like that. One of those men
who cannot go around without cigar
blazing as fiereely as the one that Will

scene of Sherlock Holmes" got In at
the eighth floor and crowded his way
behind the girl. Somehow or other the
cigar and the hair came together and
at once got busy. The pompadour fz-
zled, sputtered and sizzled like q pin
wheel. One man put his hat on 1t, the
elevator man stopped the car, and the
shrieking girl was hustled into the hall
with badly damaged silk tile sur
mounting her neat wash blouse. The
fire was out in five seconds, without the
assistance OF hand grenades. The man
with the cigar said he was sorry and
asked II there was anything he could
do.

A Question of "Nerve."

The hotel barber shop has its little
joke as we'll as any other part Of the

In the tonsorial establishment Of one
Of the downtown hostelries the other
day q drummer who knew all the doc
tors was being operated upon. Near by
q swell barber shop had been set up in
business, with plate mirrors, mahog-
any furniture and the like, and was
making great splash for business.
"How's the new barber shop getting
on next doorT' asked the drummer of
one of the BARRIERS.
"Oh, $780," was the reply. How
ever, we manage to keep at work." he
added, Just to show that though there
may be "butters in" competition is the
life Of trade
"I suppose you do get few still who
don't see the other place." remarked the
drummer.
By this time the barber was sarcas-
tic.
"Yes, indeed" he said. "They wan

yourself, you know-and suppose aft

Back Alleys of Life.
Keep to the broad highways of hope
and cheerfulness. Expect to succeed.
Think success, and you will succeed.
Keep out of the back alleys of gloom
and pessimism. join the procession Of
the cheerful, the willing and the hope
full. Be sanguine. Know the pleasures

Keep away from the scavengers and

He never contributed to the good cheer

is continually dragging backward to-

MISS DENNISON SAW A STRANGE OUTFIT
TRoTTING sEDATELY ACROSS THE LAWN.
Willie Gray's face grew wrathfuliy red,
and great beads Of perspiration stood
on his forehead. Then he tore q leaf
from his notebook, hastily scrawled a
few words and tied 1t to Billy's collar,
where the other note had reposed.
He arose and, followed by the dog,
stalked down the road. When they
came to the fork, Gray pointed down
the left hand road ana said sternly:
"Home, Billy. Home, SIR" After he
had watched the dog trot off defect
edly into the dust he himself went
slowly up the other road
Late that evening Billy scrambled
into the hammock where his mistress
lay. She saw the note and in the dim
light from the window beside her read
these words.
Ny Dear Helen-I trust you'll have a
pleasant afternoon. Undoubtedly it will
be much preferable to Chaucer beneath
the pine. Billy reached me after 1 had
waited several hours for you. The tina
passed very pleasantly, thanks to the VIII
famous heat and ywarms Of famine strick-
90 mosquitoes. Being the soul of devo-
ton, shall be delighted any afternoon
In the future to go through the inauisi-
ton again for the sake OF the reward of
similar note. talling me you are automo-
billing with the latest arrival In town.
THOMAS M GRAY.
The next afternoon, as Gray was
knocking a ball about the links, Billy
sgain came trotting up with the violet
envelope attached to his COLLAR In
the shade of some aumae bushes Gray
read the contents;
Your latest outburst duly received per
Billy. Mr.. Tommy Green Eyes Pray.
don't subject yourself to heat and mos
Quitoes on my account. HELEN.
The note Billy carried back read az
follows:
Thanks. I had no intention Of doing 90.

Then for week there was silence
between them. Gray in his anger care
fully avoided the Dennison cottage In
his walks along the shore. Every after
noon, however, as he sat on the piazza
of the caSino he saw Helen Dennison
and Hansmett dash by in an automo,
bile, whieh very probably accounts for
Mr.. Th|aas Morley Gray's proneness
to knoc bout the bay in his catboat,
carrying full sail in a double reef
breeze.
Early one evening Gray was crossing
the lawn OF the casino when he heard
a mighty yelpipg and ki-yi-ing in the
road. lie turned back to find Billy and
q brindle bull terrier hard at it. With
judicious kicks he managed to get them
apart; then his heart came into his
throat for attached to Billy's collar
vas bit of violet envelope. Gray
snatched it eagerly. 1t had been sadly
mutilated in the fray, but n few words
in one corner OF the paper were still
iegible. II was just trying to make

place he made out, I'm lonesome for
you, you foolish

broad veYanda of the cottage, saw

the lawn 1t was Billy, a wreath of
oak leaves about his neck and tied TO
his tail a small silk Tag which fut-
