Pity and FRIENDSHIP,

Pity and friendship are passions in.
compatible with each other, and it is
impossible that both can reside in any
breast for the smallest space without
impairing each other. Friendship is
made up of esteem and pleasure; pity
is composed of sorrow and contempt;
the mind may for some time fuctuate
between them. but it can never enter.
tain both together.-Goldsmith.

Every Man a Sculptor.

Every man is the builder of 4 tenn
pie, called his body, to the God he wor-
ships after style purely his own, nor
can he get off by hammering marble
instead. We are all sculptors and
painters, and our material is our own
flesh and blood and bones. Any noble
ness begins at once to refine a mans
features, any meanness or sensuality
to imbrute them.-Thoreau.

ESTES STILL IN
 BAD CONDITION
Central of Georgia Official Will Prob. ably Be Totally Blind, Even
 Though He Recover.

From information received at the local office of the Central of Georgia railroad yesterday, the condition of General Freight Agent Estes, who was shot Mon- day morning, accidentally, by his wife, shows little indications of improvement. His condition yesterday, in fact, was re- ported as worse than that of the day be- fore. Very little hope is entertained for the recovery of the stricken man.
 H. B. Crawford, superintendent of the Birmingham Columbus division of the road, gave yesterday in the Central of Georgia office, a full account of how the accident occurred. It seems that when MT. Estes reached home his wife stated that she had heard noises in the house. After retiring, and having slept for two hours, Mrs. Estes aroused her husband, saying that she had again heard the noises. She reached for a Colts auto- matic revolver, which was on nearby table, and was handing it to her hus- band when it was discharged. The bullet ploughed through the front of MT. Estes head, immediately to the rear of the eyes.
 The feay is entertained that even should MT. Estes recover, he will be hereafter totally blind.

 The Mayor will also more than likely request that the Council give hira two special men to be used to enforce the prohibition and gambling laws. Other developments are expected. Every evil dence points to a live meeting
