LEFT A BIG FORTUNE.
By Stranger to Whom He He'd Been
Kind When In Need.

Shortly before the Klondike gold
boom, W. v. Miller, a motorman OF
Macon, Ca, then living in Atlanta
and known as kid" Miller, met j..
F. Curley, a broken-down miner
stranded and without funds. He took
him in, fed him and gave him money
to take him as far as Birmingham.
That was the last he ever heard
of the bread cast upon the waters
until recently, when he received
word that Curley had died in Daw-
son City and left him fortune es-
timated at s5O0,oO0. Shortly after
Curley's death, Dawson City author
tiles communicated with Chief of Po-
lice Jennings, of Atlanta, asking for
news of kid" Miller.
Jennings traced him to Macon and
located him as w. V. Miller, a mar
ried, but childless motorman. The
news of Curley's will, leaving his
all to the man who helped him when
he was down and out quickly fol-
lowed. Miller so far is somewhat
dazed by his good fortune, but Is
still cheerful.

SERIOUS CHARGE
REV. J. w. DANIEL SAYS COLUM'
BEA is A WICKED CITY.
Makes the Startling Statement That
Many Debauched Young Men and
Women Are There.

A dispatch from Lexington says
Rev. j. w. Walter, D. D., presid-
ing elder of the Columbia district,
preached a startling sermon in the
Methodist church at that place Sun
day afternoon, using for his theme
1.-The Home and Home influence.
During the course Of his eloquent
discourse, DR.. Daniel declared with
feeling that >"Colum bia, the capital
of the proud state of South Caroli-
ma, is the wickedest city south OF
Philadelphia" He said that there
were more debauched young men
and young women in and around
Columbia than any other section OF
the State.
Basing his remarks on the para
bic where the rich mans son had
left his home and had wasted his
money in riotous living, DR.. Daniel
drew several pictures which touch
ed the hearts of his hearers.
He urged the importance of hofe
young men come to his home in Co.
lumbia and acknowledge that they
have left their homes and have llv-
Ell lives of shame and disgrace and
seek advice.
He urged the importance of home
training importance Of raising
Alright the young men and young
women Of the land, and the impor-
tance of parents making their homes
so. attractive that their children
will nct want to leave.
He deplored the fact that rich par
ents often give their children large
sums Of money and set them up in
business. This he said, was the
worst thing that could ever happen
to any child.
He said that he did not believe
in ~endowments of any kind, whether
for school or what not, that every
child should make his own mark in
life. Teach the heart and mind
and all else than is necessary in life
will come" he said.

RUNNING COTTON
THE WEEyIL IS PLAYING HAVOC
WITH THE CROP.
In Parts CT Louisiana and Texas,
Where, Unless the Pest Is Check
ed Cotton Must he Abandoned.

1.-The boil weevil has almost de-
stroyed the cotton crop in the wes-
Tern part OF, Texas and the eastern
part of Louisiana" said Col. James
Willbanks, of New Orleans in New
York last week.
1.-THE Weevil is getting worse In
that section, and with every new
crop it moves further north and
west. There are some plantations
along the Louisiana border which
used to produce bale of cotton to
the acre, but which now does not
produce one-ffth of that yield, be-
cause of the ravages of the weevil.
NO remedy has been found fSr
the pest, though the agricultural ex-
pertinent stations in all the South
ern states has spent fortunes trying
to find some remedy. The United
States department of agriculture has
experimental for years, but without
result.
UNLESS something 3 found to
cause the weevil to leave the cotton
country, it will only be question
of time before it will be impossible
to raise cotton at profit, and i'm
mense areas now devoted to the sta
pie will have to be used for other
crops.
"a man in Houston, Texas, last
year claimed to have discovered a
chemical compound which would de-
stroy the weevil. He sold thousands
of dollars worth Of his medicine,
but the weevil seemed to thrive on it
wherever it was used. The truth is
there seems to be no remedy, and |
do not beliye one will ever be dis
covered. I believe the only way
to kill the pest for good is to bum
all the cotton stalks after a crop
has been harvested, and let the land
be sown for the next year in some
other crop. Of course, this would
cause a cotton famine, and prices
would reach civil war levels, when
cotton sold for IS pound, but this
would be cheaper in the long run
if We could finally get rid Of the wee
vii.
Already many of the plantations
in Louisiana and Texas, where the
land is not suitable for anything
but cotton, have been abandoned be-
cause the weevil has made 1t no
neer- profiCaE:e 20 work. irc nj :.

when two men jumped on the rear
of the last car of the train and two
on the front platform.
All four whipped out revolyeFs
and shouted hands VI, shell out,
Most of the immigrants did not un'
derstand the language but the re
yolyers were wholly intelligible
The four men walked down the mid
die aisle OF the car from either end
taking jewelry and cash.
They might have got more If q
trainman had not stepped to The
rear platform and, taking In the ST
uation at a glance, he ran to the sta

robbers had been warned by their
lookouts and bolted for the waiting
room, where a thousand persons
from the ferries were waiting for
other trains.
The lookout, who was arrested,
refuses to give his name or tell any
thing about himself or the gang OF
men he was operating with, but he
will be made to tell all about him

bicycle dealer, OF $500 dollars BY a
cunnigly-laid scheme. Young Hill
claims that he told him that he po-

could make money multiply by sub

In order to demonstrate that

dollars in currency Of the real
money, and Hill fell into the we'll

mersion in the bucket took place
and another package was handed to
him to be kept until the following
