Winder and that vicinity for the crea
ton of a new county named Barrow
with Winder as its capital, is being
felt mere, and both sides have been
active in soliciting the support of the
Clark County Representatives
Representative Frank Rhodes al

of the new county. and it is under
stood that Representative Lipscomh
will not oppose the measure. One of
the local papers has given the new
county its support editorially and is
being thanked and praised on the one
hand and abused on the other by
those opposed to the new county.
The general opinion, however. is
that the claim of the Winder people
is just one, and that Barrow Coun-
ty should be given the most serious
consideration by the Legislature.

Counties are intensely excited over the
unusual and uncanny actions and
revelations Of Susie May Burgess, IA
year-old daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. ].

Some time ago the girl became af-
fected with something like cataleptic
attacks, which render her practically
unconscious and cause her body to
become entirely rigid. Strange as it
may seem, she predicts days ahead
when she will be attacked, and so far
her predictions have been fulfilled.
Presoribes Strange Cure.
This caused no unusual excitement,
but when a week ago the girl COM

is nearby, and get from beneath some

can be given as to how the girl knew

around the grave had not been broken
probably since the old Governor was

when she possesses the seemingly SUI

LONDON, June 21.-That Queens
and Duchesses are not above taking
delight in good piece of business
was shown by a recent incident at
Stafford House.
Queen Mary invited herself to take
tea with the Duchess Of Sutherland
there, principally with the object OF
looking over the furniture and bric-a
brac. which are to be sold, as Sir
William Lever has taken a lease OF
the historic mansion.
Queen Is Collector.
The Queen is an amateur collector
Of old English furniture and possesses
nice collection of Chippendale.
While looking around she noticed two
Chippendale chairs, which she consid p
cred would make a handsome addi-
ton to her collection. Her Majesty
asked the Duchess the price. Her
Grace said the reserve was 100 pounds,
($75O.) and that her Majesty was vel %
come to them at that figure.
oh! A hundred is as much as /
want to spend" said the Queen
Il am sorry said the Duchess. Il
can't 20 below the reserve"
Her Majesty dropped the subject
for time and looked at other arti-
cles. Just before her departure she
said to the Duchess: Il would like
to have those chairs. Can't you real
ly let me- have them at a hundred?"
Refuses Chairs As Gift.
- am sorry, ma'am," replied the
Duchess. Il cannot sell below the re-
serve price. If ,'our Majesty would
accept them as a gift"
"Oh, no, / couldn't think of it, sail
the Queen. We'll, II you can't sell
for less, III send you check for
$50 pounds"
Thus two chairs were added to the
Queens collection Of Chippendale
The auctioneers, who are now re
moving all the furniture and other
objects from Stafford House for the
sale, consider that the Queen made
a good bargain.
