PSALM OF THE sUFFRAGETTE.

Show me not in scornful numbers
You've too many voters now!
Woman wakened from her slumbers
Wants the ballot anyhow.
Life with Bill or life with Ernest
Is no more our destined goal;
Man thou art, to man thou turnest;
But we, too, demand the poll.
Not enjoyment, naught but sorrow,
Is the legislators way;
For We'll get him tomorrow
If he should escape today
Arts expensive, styles are feeting;
Let our lace-edged banner wave,
Thus inscribed DER every meeting:
Give us suffrage or the gravel"
Heroines, prepare for battle!
Lend your efforts to the strife!
Drive all husbands forth like cattle!
Be woman, not a wife!
Trust no man, however pleasant;
He'll agree to all you say
Send you candy as a present,
Go and vote the other way.
Wives of great men all remind us
We can make our lives sublime,
And proceeding leave behind us
All the rest at dinner time.
Let us, then, be up and doing,
Don the trousers and the coat;
For our candidate pursuing
The elusive, nimble vote.
Smart Set.

w A. Winburn, vice-president, in

a+od in tie adoption of improved
Sarvning methods along it's lines, end

mat splendid results will be obtained
tb~ough the organization of Boys

i, order to encourage this work we
hovn decided to offer cash prize of

ties trayersed by our line who Sc
oI,res the best results from the Gull
ovation of an acre of corn under the
r,,1es of competition fixed by the or
carnations named above.
.aThe Central runs through fifty
soven counties in Georgia and TWEEN
zone counties in Alabama, which
7I5i11 have. the effect of enabling a
large number of boys to benefit by
the competition, and should arouse
very general interest in this very
imnortant educational work.
I'm addition to these county prizes
tho Central of Georgia also offers
two state prizes, one in Alabama and
one in Georgia, to be awarded to the
how competing in the corn clubs OF
the counties traversed by it's line of
road who obtains the best results
under the rules prescribed for the
county prizes. We have decided to
offer for state prizes the best mule
that can be purchased for $3.50.
while every boy winning a cash
Drize is at liberty to use the money
according to his own best judgment
we believe that no better use could
be made of it than by taking ad-
vantage of the educational advant-
ages JndL are OuelSu Ny ChO ACCt'oN
Colleges of Agriculture. This
amount, generally speaking, will
more than pay the expenses that will
be incurred in taking the farmers
short course either at Athens, Ga,
or Auburn, Ala, and we hope that
the winners will make this use of it.
1T is not our expectation in offer
ing these prizes that the increase
in the production of corn in these
states will make such an important
item of freight tonnage in the near
future, but we do believe that more
homegrown corn means more live
stock, and that more live stock will
serve to enrich the soil, which must
inevitably benefit the farmer and ev-
erybody else, including the rail-
roads"

ROUGH PATH OF TRUE LOVE
The Elevator Boy Who Married a
Rich Girl Is Sent 20 al. Asylum
to Break the Match.

NEW YORK.-This story shows
that the path of true love never runs
smooth. tbs an old saying, but just
as true today as it was when the ex-
preston was first coined. The
daughter of a wealthy Jewish law
yer and her lover, an elevator boy
in the apartment house where the
girl lived with her parents, can
vouch for the correctness of the old
adage. The girl became acquainted
with the elevator boy during her
frequent trips on the lift, and soon
a warm friendship sprang up be-
tween the two. The boy, being poor
and diftident, remained rather pas
sive in his demonstrations of senti-
ment, but the girl, accustomed to do
very much as she pleased, shower
ed candy and other gifts upon the
boy. Finally the calf love between
the unequal couple led to the result
which was to be expected. The young
lovers went to Hoboken together and
were married there by an accommo-
dating justice of the peace. Fer
some time the girl kept the mar
riage secret, but at last she told her
father, who promptly drove her out
of the house. She went to live with
her young husband, but the dream
of blissful love was not of a long
duration. Her father set the ma
chinery of his wealth and power ge-
ing, and few days later the hus-
band of the young heiress disappear
ed. 1t is believed that her father
had the boy removed to some private
insane asylum, and that he intends
to keep him there until the foolish
marriage has been annulled by the
courts.

SENATOR BUFFALO BILL.
Famous Old Scout May Represent
Arizona at Washington.

Buffalo Bill for the United States
senate! 1t sounds bit odd, but at
the same time it sounds good. Col.
Cody is a citizen of Arizona, and has
let it be understood that he really
wouldn't mind rounding out his ca
reer with a term in the senate. Ar
iona might look further and fare
much worse than by sending the ia
nous old scout to represent her in
the upper house at Washington. Col.
Cody can number his friends and ad-
mirers literally by the millions. He
is probably known of more persons
than any man living and if he has
an enemy nobody ever heard of it.
Moreover he is man of exceptional
ly wide experience and more than
the average congressional mentality
The whole country would be pleased
to address him as Senator Cody,

SENATORIAL MIX UP POSSIBLE.
just Suppose the Legislature Should
Deadlock. There Would Be But
One Georgia Senator.


ATLANTA.-In the event the leg
islature should deadlock in June
over the naming of United States
senator Georgia would be without
the services of one senator until an
election was consummated.
This question arose in converse
ton here among officials, who were
specializing as to what would happen
in that event, it seeming more than
probable that the extra session of
congress will continue through the
summer, and may merge into the
regular session in December. mas
much as it seems the determination
of the democrats to go into the tar
if question the probability of a long
drawn out session seems well
grounded.
The law expressly stipulates that
in the event of vacancy in the
United States senate for any reason
the governor is empowered to APP
point a successor until the next
meeting of the legislature. The
Georgia legislature assemblies the
fourth Wednesday in June.
Now the question of a deadlock
or long drawn out fight is not alto
gether improbable at the coming ses-
sion. In that event Senator Terrell
could not serve, as his interim APP
pointment will have legally expired.
1t may be seen, therefore, that there
is a possibility of Georgia having
only one senator in the national
council for a part, at least, Of the
extra session, when there will be a
good deal of democratic history in
the making.
