The Granite of Del
Frc
a
Atlanta Ci
Thirty years ago a man by the name
of James Wilson came into our coun
try from Aberdeen, Scotland, and
when he caught sight of the granite
along the Georgia railroad he said,
"here I stop-this is the laud !"
This Scotchman was an expert in
stone cutting and knew the value that
should be placed upon rich fields of
granite. He settled down in Lithonia
and cut out the first stone now so
common on the streets of Atlanta and
other cities. He is buried in the
cemetery at Lithonia and his coun
trymen have decorat?d his resting
place in a most suitable manner by
the erection in granite of unique
statutes in the place where he sleeps.
Long before this man of Aberdeen
died he saw a verification of his good
judgment on the coming importance
of this granite. In a few short years
he bad gathered about Lithonia a col
ony of Scotch people so numerous as
to make one feel in strolling there
that they were along the "banks and
braes*of bonny Doon," or listening to
the murmer of "Afton's Sweet Wa
ters."
Before Wilson's death experiment
had been begun to find something to
take the place of granite but he al
ways toldihis friends to never mind,
that, they might go off for a while but
that they would return to the use of
granite, as nothing could take its
place. This prediction has been ful- !
filled. For some time the world has
been struggling to find something that
would take the place of tt?is granite,
and so successful did the experiments
seem at one time that the industry
was dead and many people fled the
region, and capital was withdrawn,
but a return to granite has begun, the
industry has taken on life again, capi
tal and people are returning and De
Kalb now gives promise of being
speedily what she should be, the
richest county-in the world from nat
ural resources.
One has but a small conception of
this granite supply who confine their
ideas to Stone Mountain and the
region thereabout. Miles away from
Stone Mountain to every point of the
compass stretches great fields of gran
ite and hills of granite only called
"hills" because of the great Stone
Mountain itself which overshadows
everything of its kind aod stand as
one of the greatest wonders of the
world. Away down on the line of
Clayton from any vantage ground look
ing into DeKalb, miles upon miles of
granite can be seen, sometimes stretch
ing in flat acres like gray prairies, then
rising in "hills" like grim senti dels
keeping watch over a world that is
passing, to tell the tale when all else
has passed away.
Never touching the great mountain,
enough granite could be had to build
a Chinese wall around the world, and
then seas of rock, if it be proper to
call them seas, would remain unscar
red by the hand of progress, only
waiting to be turned into channels of
usefulness and to things of beauty.
Along with the predictions of the
man from Scotland, there is another
story of a man aad his faith that these
mountain, are to be scattered to the
four winds, but it will bc remembered
that in Wilson we had the judgment
of a clear, strong man of travel, an
expert in rock work, in the other we
have the delusion-if you so choose to
call it-of an old man boot with age
and smarting under what he t^ok as a
wrong which crept upon him in the
garb of progress and opened the eyes
of those whom he wished to ever keep
in the stumbling path of darkness.
Long, long ago, before the hammer
of the Scotchman was ever dreamed of
and before these rocks had ever had a
scar, this strange old man owned land
and lived northeast of the Stone
Mountain. He had raised a family
here, as innocent as they were igno
rant in their backwoods seclusion.
The old man himself was rated an
infidel, but his family were believers
and members of a .little log church
which had been built very near thc
foot of the mountain, on the steep
side. His family had long since dc
spared of ever getting the old man to
enter their little church, and nothing
was thought of it when the old fellow
upon every Sabbath morning filled his
bow-basket with corn and salt and
sauntered off to the forest to "gentle''
his cattle and hogs. This had been
his custom for years upon the Sabbath
mo" ngs. aud he scoffed thc idea of
there being any good in churches or
in preachers.
So matters stood when a man by thc
name of Cloud-Aaron Cloud-visited
the section, bought thc great moun
tain for perhaps a pony or a shotgun
and announced that he was going to
build a hotel and a great tower on thc
top of thc mountain and turn thc
place into a summer resort for folks
of fashion.
This all transpired, aod our strange
old man soon saw his family departing
from their backwoods simplicities and
/I?NKETT.
Kalb Coming to the
Dnt.
institution.
taking on the airs of the fashionable
people who congregated at the moun
tain. It was soon plain th.it the dis
sipation and extravagance so common
at resorts of fashion was sure to enter
and contaminate the simplicities upon
which our old strange man so much
doted. As for him, he never changed,
save to grow sorrowful over a change
he could not stem.
Upou a certain Sabbath morning the
old man in returning from where he
had been salting his cattle and "gent
ling" his hogs, chanced to pass near
the little church at the foot of the
mountain. He had no thought of
entering the church-he had never
entered. His pants were rolled up to
his knees, for he had been wadiDg the
streams, barefooted and in his shirt
sleeves with his bow basket on his
arm. He was never expected to meet
the people at church, but suddenly
our dd man halts-he is listening to
the loud old preacher and surely some
thing has caught the attention of the
old man. What does the preacher
say? It must be something very re
I markable, for our old friend wishes to
catch the words and draws nearer the
church, with his hand to his ear.
What does the preacher say ?
"By prayer, my brethren and sisters,
we can do anything-even yonder
mountain, brethren and sisters, could
be moved by prayer and faith-faith,
brethren, faith and prayer, would
scatter that great mountain like chaff
before the wind !"
Nothing on earth could have pleased
this strange old man so much as to
scatter this mountain. Scatter the
j fashionable people and move the hotel
and the tower and never hear of Cloud
again. He liked these words of the
preacher-by prayer, by faith and he
whispered them as he walked nearer
to thc church, even to the door, and
then inside.
Such commotion was never seen in
a country church before. His good
j old wife clapped her hands and run to
j meet him, and his children shouted
I for joy as they all hung upon him,
while the whole congregation shed
tears and went wild over the scene.
Such a "big meeting1' as grew out of
this incident was never seen before
and many joined the church-thc old
man joined.
The story is too long to give all the
details, but the old man became u
prating member of that church and
the burden of all his prayer was for
the Lord to move this mountain. A
storm came and blew away the hotel
and shattered the tower, and Aaron
Cloud returned to Griffin and from
there went to Florida and has never
been seen again. In time our strange
old man moved up into Habersham,
but he occasionally returns, as old as
he is, and smiles as the trains are
loaded with granite and throws up his
hat when the dynamite booms and
scatters thc rocks to the four winds of
heaven-"like chaff before the wind"
is moved this greatest of mountains,
and I leave it tu the reader to say
whether the old man should be cured
of his delusion or live and rejoice over
God's mysterious ways.
But no matter what has been, the
granite fields of DeKalb are greater
than gold mines and they have opened
up again and give thc greater promise
of growing on to a fulfillment of the
expectations of the grand Scotchman
who was first to see their worth, but
died before the time.

Mr. "William Harvey and his sister.
Miss Mary, livi?g about six miles east
of Richview, 111., tell a very interest
ing story of themselves, which hap
pened a number of years ago.
They were quite small, the boy be
ing about 5 and his sister 7 years old.
During the year 1858, when the State
Fair was being held at Central City,
111., an aeronaut of Chicago made an
ascension in a balloon at the State
Fair on Saturday morning, and his
balloon came down about six miles
east of . there, near the country resi
dence of William Harvey, Sr. The
owner of the balloon, feeling chilled,
went into the farm house to warm and
tied his balloon to a rail fence near
the barn. Little Willie and Mary
were playing near the barn. They no
ticed the balloon tied to the fence, and
as they had never seen a balloon they
walked up to take a look at it. See
ing that it would go up a few feet and
then back again, they thought it would
be great fun to get in the basket and
ride. Mary helped her little brother
in and then she got in. The balloon
went up and down a while ; then all at
once it gave a lunge and pulled itself
loose from the fence. Up and up it
went, with the little Harvey children
in the basket. The mother was look
ing out of a window, and seeing the
balloon going upwards told the aero
naut that his balloon had got away
from the fence, and they all went out
to watch it. The mother came, and
as she watched the ballon goiog up*
she noticed someone in the basket.
Not once did she think it was her
two little children, nor could she be
lieve it to bc her two children when
her husband told her the children
were nowhere to be found.
A search was made all over the farm
for the missing ones, but without re
sult. The father at once drove to
Rome, a short distance from his farm,
and told the story. At once people
followed after the balloon. It went
north about five miles, then turned
weat, going over Central City. Every
one at the fair, thinking the aeronaut
was making his return, cheered and
cheered as the balloon went over. Soon
a telegram was received at Central
City stating that thc balloon contain
ed thc two children of Mr. and Mrs.
William Harvey and to keep a lookout
for it. But ir. was growing late and
thc balloon was traveling fast. Soon
it was impossible to see it. It went
south, passed through Centralia, 111.,
then turned west again and went over
Mascoutah, 111., and then turned and
went over East St. Louis.
The little boy began to get cold and
commenced to cry. Mary untied her
apron and put it around Willie's head
and he went to sleep in Mary's lap.
About 7 o'clock the next morning the
balloon came down in a large tree on
a farm southeast of Mount Vernon, 111.
The owners of the farm seeing the
balloon iu their tree the lady of thc
house cried out to her husband :
"Oh, John ! God has sent us some
childreu in a basket."
John got the children out of the
tree, took them into thc house, and
after they were warm asked Mary who
her parents were. She told them and
the farmer took them home.
Many of the visitors to the State
Fair in 185S will remember the above
story, and may bc pleased to know
that the little children who made the
trip are now living aud delight in tell
ing it.-St. Louis (Moite-Dent oemt.

When Monkeys Played Music.
In the recollections of "Fifty Years
With a Menagerie," by the late Dan
Hice, published iu the February 2d
and !lth issues of the Youth's Com
panion, occurs this story:
"It may surprise many persons to
learn that monkeys, despite their
cleverness, are not enduringly suscep
tible to the influences of 'higher edu
cation,' for infinite is their innate de
pravity. I found them ready enough
to learn, but persistent in refusal to
display their knowledge when-requir
ed to do so by their patient teacher.
This peculiar side of monkey nature
was forcibly impressed on me when I
tried to form an orchestra, or string
band, among the simians of my me
nagerie.
"We were in winter quarters, and
as it was my custom to devote my
spare time during the cold term to
taming and training wild animals for
the next season, I had a family of
monkeys confined in an apartment ad
joing my reading, smoking and music
room.
"One morning upon nearing the cot
tage my ears were greeted by the sound
of my 'cello. I paused, wondering
what visitor had provoked my rich
toned instrument to such unseemly
discord. Then I approached closely,
and through a window saw a laughable
scene.
"Seated upon a chair, with a smok
ing cap on his head, spectacles on his
nose and meerschaum pipe in his
mouth, was Joe, thc largest monkey
of thc menagerie, sawing away at the
'cello with bow in hand. Several of
the smaller monkeys were in postures
of surprise and delight at Joe's per
formance. I had omitted to lock the
door of the monkey-room, and that ac
counted for the intrusion on my sanc
tum.
"Highly entertained, I stood for a
time a silent spectator, until seen by
a little monkey, who notified its fel
lows of my presence with a sharp cry.
In a twinkling the animals dashed
from the room-Joe, minus cap. spec
tacles and pipe,bringing up the rear and
carefully closing the door behind him.
Upon entering the house I found all
the monkeys safely ensconced in their
proper room and looking as innocent
as possible, while thc old ringleader
was snoring and apparently sound
asleep. From this occurrence the idea
of trying to form an orchestra of mon
keys came into my mind, for I well
knew that such a troupe, even if it
produced anything but melody, would
bc a strong attraction."

Foul-Smelling
Catarrh.
Catarrh is one of the most obstinate
liseases. and hence the mest difficult
to get rid of.
There is but one way to cure it.
The disease is in the blood, and all the
sprays, Washes and inhaling mixtures
in the world cnn have no permanent
effect whatever upon it. Swift's Spe
cific cures Catarrh permanently, for it is
the only remedy which can reach the
iisease and force it from the blood.
Mr. B. P. McAllister, of liarrodsburg,
Ky., had Catarrh for years. He writes:
'.I could sec no improvement -whatever,
though Ivos constantly treated with sprays
aand washes, and diffcr
ent inhaling remedies
in fact. 1 could feel that
each winter I was worse
than thc year previous.
..Finally it was
bromrhfrto my notice
*V1 that Catarrh was a blood
?iSew- \?J disease, and after think
^?fit?? Jr \\VA over thc matter. I
V^. .,,// saw i t was unreasonable
'hbT"'-1* 10 <,xPect t01)0 cured by
Y??aft,\.?^^.^y2 remedies which only

^^S^^SSk^ffi^ then decided to try
STS-S., and after a few bottles were used. I no
! ticed a perceptible improvement. Continuing
the remedy, the disease was forced out of my
system, and a complete cure was the result.
I advise all who have this dreadful disease to
abandon, theirlocal treatment.which hasnever
done them any good, and take S.S. S..a rem
edy that can reach the disease and cure lt."
To continue the wrong treatment for
Catarrh is to continue to suffer. Swift's
Specific is a real blood remedy. and
cures obstinate, deep-seated diseases,
which other remedies have no effect
whatever upon. It promptly reaches
Catarrh, and never fail s to cure even the
most aggravated cases.

There is but one opinion, and that is that it is the best Plow on
earth. Syracuse Plows are designed right, made right, sold
right. They will turn land where others have failed, and
build fur themselves a demand wherever introduced. The pop

will tell you that they have somethiug just as good, but don't
