A big fire in London, England, last week which resulted in a loss of fifteen millions of dollars, the most disastrous conflagration since 1666. Sam Jones says he would as soon go to Alaska for pine-apples or to hell for water as to ask the Georgia Legislature to pass any law against bar-rooms. The Powers threaten to block ade Constinople if Turkey persists in her refusal to withdraw her troops from Crete and to accept a European governor of the island. The widow of Gen. Logan has been appointed by the courts guar dian of the beautiful Cuban girl, Miss Cisneros, who will remain in this country, making Washington her home. The Columbia cotton mills have made a test of the round cotton balee, but as yet no positive opin ion has been given pro or cou aE to the desirability of using such bales generally. We haven't seen anything from Mr. Edward Atkinson in some time. He is the great American statistician who can put down more figures to the column, with les3 sense behind them, than anv man on the continent. Mr. A. C. Kaughman, of Char leston, proposes to build at CaBtle Pinckney a home for aged Federal veterans. Now some Northern philanthropist should establish in the Adirondacks a summer retreat for old Confederate veterans. -, A special election for congreBB, in Chicago, resulted in the v t^Mg-^Tt^xrvBTea. it ought ft SUB to go Democratic next time at that ' rate of progress. The United States government sends white ambassadors to the three colored republics, Liberia, Santo Domingo, and Haiti, in deference io the expressed prefer ence of thosi countries. They think they have niggers enough of their own, we suppose. The friends of William Jennings Bryan, the late Democratic candi date for president, are already lay ing plans to renominate him in 1900. They have a plan by which he is to be nominated without op position, and at the same time al low him to name his running mate. The colored people of Atlanta are making great preparations for the celebration of the signing of j the emancipation proclamation. The occasion will be celebrated on January 1st and the programme to be prepared will be one of the most elaborate yet rendered by the j colored people. A traveller from this country while recently looking from the crater of Hawaii's big volcano into the seething mass of molten lava and lurid flame, exclaimed: "Don't tell me there is no hell !

The State Board of Control haB made some changes in the prices of dispensary liquors. There will be no reduction in the prices of one and tvo X liquors and \ the like, such goods are already I being sold absolutely at cost and no money is made on corn and the lower grades of rye liquore. The most important change is in offering a number one beer, three pints for 25 cents. The same ratio of cuts will be made in ales and porter. Of the higher grades of rye, Crescent and Echo Springs goods will be cut from $1.25 a quart to $1.10, and smaller quantities in proportion. Old Cabinet quarts will be reduced from 81.25 to $1.15 JOHNSON'S CHILL AND FEVER TONIC Cures Fever In One Day. ( SA DO YOU EVER THINK. Do you ever think as the hearse drives by That it wont be long till you and I Will both ride out in the big plumed hack And we'll never, never, never ride back? Do you ever think as 5 ou strive for gold That a dead man's hand can't a dollar hold? We may tug and toil and pinch and save, And we'll lose it all when we reach the grave. Do you ever think as you closely clasp Your bag of gold with a firmer grasp If the hungry hearts of the world were fed It might bring peace to your dying bed? THE COURT. Court is still in session. Most of the railroad cases of last week have been continned to the March term, the railroads paying the costs. The slander case of Addison vs. Sujette resulted in a verdict of $5 for the plaintiff, each party to the suit paying his own costs. The attorneys in this case were Shep pard Bros., Solicitor Thurmond and N. G. Evans, for plaintiff; Croft & Tillman, for defendant. In the case of JaB. A. Lanier, et al., against T. B. Lanier, et al., the verdict was for the plaintiff. Folk ? Folk end S. McG. Simkins for the plaintiff and Sheppard Bros. for ths defendant. Editor Hugh Wilson, of Abbe ville, after sonn timely advice on economy, proceeds thus wisely on debt paying: First of all, pay your debts. Pay the smallest debts first. The man to whom you owe a dollar and a half will wor?y you more than the man whose claim is a thousand dollars. A great many people make the mistake of making small payments on large deb's, instead of paying small debts in full. The world excuses the debtor who owes a large sum, but the man who neg lects to pay small debts injures his credit in the eyes of the busi ness world. Every man should be jealous of his credit. Pay small debts, even if you have to borrow the money. Establish the reputa tion of being a debt-payer-and this cannot be done if you allow small debtors to complain of your neglect. Better owe for the house in which you live than to be in debted to your wash-woman. The Hon. L. F.Livingston, Con gressman from the Atlanta, Ga., district, himself a farmer and living in the country on his farm, and, therefore, no stranger to the ^c^~-t>a ^pw^^a^ij^rerngs^T^ver seen such stagnation in agricul ture; and he asserts that it is unquestionably due to the single gold standard. He also says that the worst feature of it is that there is no reasonable probability of things improving in that regard during the present administration, since the present chief executive and congress were elected distinct ly on that issue. He says that if the people now had a chance to reverse their verdict it would be done. He predicts the election of a democratic congress next year and an utter roui of the repub licans in 1900, the first year of the twentieth century, when silve will be remonetized. ^lUlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllU: j Bargains!
