S?RGE Pi "Wheat Harvest ISTo' Atlanta Cc Wheat harvest has been upon us for a week, but harvest time does not mean what it used to-not by a jug fall. Even negroes used to welcome the coming of harvest as a time of feasting and fun. No man would have pro tended to cut hie OT7S wheat in Geor gia before the war. Neighbors joined tbHr forces then ard made thc whole harvest season a frolio rather than as now, with nico ty good to eat and something to drink also-it was great to be the "tender to the jug" in those days. They don't out wheat wheat in this way now, buLif they did whiskey as it used to be would not be in it-there would have to be several kinds of things to take the plaoe of the old wheat harvesting. Some would want morphine now, some opium or lauda num, some oooaine, and a few would only claim to want water publicly, but down in the bushes they would swig a little privately. Anyhow, when you shake the hypoorioy out of a orowd of present day harvest hands, they all want somethiog more thau what they have every day, and this shows that it was right to make the occasion a frolio just as we did in the olden times. The customs as they used to be kept up a friendlier intercourse be tween neighbors, till I believe in my heart there was the least selfishness among the old plantation people of the South than has ever been sinoe or will ever be again. The truth is that the commercial idea that has sway ..O'day can never produce the same affectionate regard between neighbors ss did the customs of 'fore the war. There was no auch thing as abject poverty then as known now. If sickness or bsd luok oame apon a fr.raily, then neighbors gather ed together and helped them ont and made a frolio of the day just as the days of harvest were made a frolic. It did so happen a few times in my memory that a stricken family's orop would have to be prepared, planted and worked through to the finish, but this made no difference, every neigh bor would appear on the appointed day and the work was performed in a cheerful frolio. The unfortunate family for whom this work was neces sary were ' never disturbed by these work days. The orowds carried their dinners and their stoek feed to the plaoe and at noon hour they -gould gather under the shadeB at the spring and a happy time it was, both for whites and for blaoks. In this dsy and time there would have to be va rious and Gundry societies and organi zations to accomplish what was tuen accomplished without the least bit of display and without a single hypocrite getting himself made large by the matter. Bat in looking back at old-time har vest occasions there are other things that impress me favorably whor com pared with some of the occasions BO preoious now., I am not going to cast any reflections against baseball or any of the athletic sports aa . we now have it, bat I desire to tell these athletes that handling the "oradle" io an old-time harvest contest was the greatest .aussie developer ever, known from'; tho$ jmSf |o|r, .^nd joung men then doted upon being a good ot adler, juBtaa they doto on being a good pi tobar or hatter now, and I leave it to common sante to say which cosme the host. j ?

Tho ?turns at the corners were made without a word and th e ten sion of the o rad lor* a arm grew stronger and stronger yet till tho last corner of the "round" was tamed and the "home stretch" began. Neve/ a race horse bent to his work on the track as I _bave seen young oradlers bend 'on. .this "home Btretch" in the bsrvest field. It waa a? intense SB base hall and a heap more profitable? I think, and perhaps it would ho well to get np a few fads with an eye to AJNKETT. fc "What it Use to Be, institution. profit as well as excitement. If a few lessons in cutting store wood or work ing the garden was dished cut to the boys who must have exercise, it would make it easier on many a cook and fully as profitable as some fads now on, but I have nothing to do with this and did not start out to make any ene mies if I can possibly help it. But tho cutting is about over of the best wheat ? ever saw in Georgia, and now will come the threshers. After them we will go to mill and have some wheat bread that you can smell the wheat in when you break a hot bis cuit to receive the butter. This is what suits and cheers the average farmer and they thank tho Lord for sending such a harvest as was sent this year. Sarge Plunkett. Safe Leap from Brooklyn Bridge. New York June 25.-Suffering merely from shock and a ruptured tynpanum, Philip Krantz, 30 years old, an engineer, is a prisoner in the Hudson Street Hospital, oharged with attempted suicide, having dropped from the Brooklyn Bridge in the af ternoon. When asked why he had done so he calmly told tho men who pulled him out of the river that he just happen ed to think hg could make the leap in safety and he tried it. Thereupon the police set down the man as a daredevil, but there is good reason to believe that he is ailing mentally and really did not realize what he was doing at the time. He had been a patient in ilia New York Hospital for weeks, his wife paying ?.$10 a week rent out of their little rav ings for medical attendance. Three months ago he was discharged from the hospital with the information that he was suffering from an incura ble ailment. He and his wife moved from the apartments where they had been living, at No. 9 Morton street, to cheaper quarters at No. 196 West Tenth street. He has not been able to ?et any position owing to his eyes troubling him, and he complained of suffering from incessant headaches. for more than a dozen years he had been the engineer of a big office build ing in Broadway near Houston street. His feet and limbs began to trouble him and then he complained of pains in his . head and had to give up his place last winter. Recently he haB been rather despondent because of bis inability to earn any money, and he'has brooded over the loss of two children who died not long ago. He and his wife were reserved and did not mix with the other dwellers in the apartment-house, but their neighbors speak highly of them and say he was j ?he lass mau ia i no werie to uO any ?uviunruy ieac. Yesterday afternoon he left the house,<feaying he would take a walk and perhaps be able to hear of some position that he could fill. The next his wife heard from bim was wheo the and her mother returned from a walk and were informed:that he was a pris oner at the hospital. About 5 o'elock Henry James, who ia employed on pier No. 20, East Ri v ?r, saw a man's body shoot, down the &t?ni ^r%0; near tb? highest ti of the ?pao like* piutamet, ?trike the water and 'disappear. P-wTo. his astonishment the man to the surface and began to swim sturdily toward tho Manhattan shore. James ran ?o tb* Oak .?|reqt station and told the polios to eal! an ambu lance. t One arrived from the hospital about tho time two ] boatmen pulled I Krantz from tho water. To tba ambulance surgeon he gave bia name, ago and address, and said he was married. Acting Captain Fen nelly of the Oak street station, who had run to the pier also, said to tba man: "Whatever did you do that for?" Krauts smiled io a half-pussled way and then said slowly: "Why, I just wanted to soo ? if I could do it, and I did, didn't ir He had a gold watch ?nd a few dol lars in his pockets, and when ?rta clothes were removed his surgeons de clared ?bat they could find no visible evidsnoc of any injuries except that the drum of his left ear had boen rup tured and he was suffering from the shook of hie plunge into the water sfrom a height of 135 feet.

The Locomotive 70 Years Ago. Io a recent number of the Sun you gave an interesting description of the IOCOD-otive engine of to-day weighing 220,000 pounds, and, with its tender, 360,000 pounds, or 180 tons. Tb? locomotive that was advertised for in 1831 by th? Baltimore and Ohio Kail road Company when the first seotion of that road was completed was not to exceed three and a half tons, the en gine tc carry both water and coal. To show the progress that has hewn made iu the construction of railroads, as well as in their motive power, I take the liberty of scuding you an extraot from a letter addressed by me, Feb ruary 9, 1901, to Mr. Stuyvesant Fish, president of the Illinois Cen tral Railroad, the occasion being thc fif>!eth anniversary of thc incorpo ration of that oompany : The railroad first undertaken iu the United States was a short linc, work ed by horse power, of about three miles, for the transportation of gran ito to the Ncponsot River, near Bos ton. This road was simply a copy of tho tramroads already in use in Eng land. It is important only as the pioneer in the great movement that was then taking place. ? similar work was constructed at about the same time for the transportation of coal from the pit's mouth to the Lehigh Valley Canal, near Mauch Chunk. It was not until a muoh later day, however, that the construction of railroads was undertaken for the trans- ! portation of both freight and passen gers on anything like & comprehen sive scale. The Erie Canal had al ready out off trade which the oitios, of i Philadelphia and Beltimore had hith crto reoeived from the West; and as the project of a canal from the city of Baltimore to the Ohio WSB regarded by many as impracticable, the mer chants of that oity, in 1827, procured the oharter of the present Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. ' On the 4th of July, 1823, its con struction wss begun, the first act hoing performed by the venerable Charles Carroll, of O arr oil ton, the only sur viving signer of the D?claration of Independence. At the close of the ceremony of breaking ground Mr. Car roll oaid "I consider this among the most important acts of my life, sec ond to signing the Declaration of In- \ dependence, if even second to that." In the fall of 1329 the laying of the rails within the city of Baltimore was begun. On the 22nd of May, 1830, the first seotion of .fifteen miles, to Ellioott'B Mills, was opened. Like all others constructed at the time, it WSB sn unsubstantial structure with longitudinal sills, on which wss plaoed a thin bar, or strap of iron. Although the locomotive engine had obtained some use in England, this road continued for some time after its opening to be operated by horse power. An ingenious but unsuccess ful attempt was made to propel the trains by the use of sails. As some more ejective power than that cf hor ses seemed indispensable, the oom pany, on the 4th of January, 1831, in vited proposals for the construction of a steam engine for its use, "which, j when is operation. mnr.t T>t exceed three a?d s half ions in weight, and must, on a level road, be capable of drawing, day by day, fifteen tons, in clusive of the weight of the wagons, fifteen miles per hour." In response three engines were offered to the oom pany. One only, constructed by Phin eas Davis, of York, Pa., was accepted as coming up to the required opcoi ?C&1?O?8. AH^oug^ tbi? engine was incapable of surmounting any con eidsrj&le 8?S***fserved to assure tho officer? of the oompaay of the prtetieabiUig^ railroad by.steamp^l^^,^^ * ... j inVtfi??nQiw'Mportofthe'oompsn? for 1831 ito president, Philip E. TOpii^ <im jrovementB made in the application of working power, an imrnonoo reduc tion in tho coot of transportation and an inoraste of velooity has been, effect ed. Among 'tba * most valuable bf these improvements Ss tba combined cylindrical and eonieal ear wheels, in vented by tho chief engineer of the oompany, Slr. Jonathan Knight, wbiob have been found of the utmost imp?r tanos by tba facility they afford of turning eurves. By the aid of this highly valuable improvement every don bb is removed of our ability to em ploy locomotive engines upon the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. This discovery' ia tho more important to ss inasmuoh as from the surface of the country over whiuh our route must be constructed numerous curves ia the tracks will ba unavoidable ; and. the great advantage of this form of wheel consists in their 80 readily aaoomo dating themselves to the degrees of curvature upon tho foad that theie soarcely appears to be roy perceptille obstacle to tho passage of tho cai8 over them greater than on a straight line." The first locomotivo ever used, in the United States WSB one imported from Engl?nd in 1829, constructed by Foster, Rastriok & Co., at Stour bridge and called the Stourbridge Lion. This engine wss imported for use upon the Carondale!, and Honesdale Railroad, , belonging to the Delftware and Hudson Canal Com pany, and extending from tho canal toward the mines. Tho first experi mental trip was made by it on thc Sth of August, 1829. It was found too heavy for the '"rack, and its use con sequently had to be abandoned. The I first locomotive bo?li in this country, and the second ever in use in it, was made at the West Point Fouodery Works in New York in 1830. It was called The I ist Friend of Charleston, having been built for use on the South Caroline Railroad, then in progress of construction. It reached Charleston on October 23,1830, and waa placed on the road November 2,-1830. The second engine constructed in this country was by the same parties, for tho samo road. Thc third, also constructed by tho West Point Company, was plaocd on tho Mohawk and Hudson, now a part of the Mew Ycrk Central Rt?:lroad, in JS31, and weighed three tons. It was used on thc Bummit between tho two plaoes, worked by stationary eogines, that near Albany having a length of 2,102 feet; that near Schenectady, 2,046 feet. One of English manufac ture, weighing six tons, imported for its usc, was discontinued on account of its weight, which was too great for the track. It may be here remembered that al though the experiment on tho Stock ton and Darlington Railway seemed to be conclusive as to tho practica bility of using steam upon railroads, a commission, composed of distin guished English engineers, appointed so late as 1829 to consider tho com parative merits of transportation by locomotive or stationary power, made a report in favor of the latter, for whioh they proposed the erection of stationary engines at points within three miles of each other-the trains to be drawn by an endless rope or chain.-Henry V. Poor in New York Sun. tm ? m - Death Bather Than Wed. Birmingham, Ala., June 28.-The, Rev. E. L. Roy, pastor of the South ern Methodist church, at Gamble Mines, Walker county, is in a hospi tal here suffering fro-n nervous ex haustion. He reached here last night from Diamond, Marshall county, where he was to have married Miss Lulu Johnson, daughter of a planter, last Wednesday evening. The mar riage did not take plaoe owing to the mysterouB disappearance of the bride elect. Mr. Roy says that when he reached the Johnson' home on Tuesday he found his fiancee in the happiest mood. Wednesday morning he went | with her to the oow lot to milk the | cows, and offered to help her, but she told him she did not need his aid. Then he returned to the house and sat with her father. That waB the last seen of Miss Johnson. A search diioloBed the following note on the well ourb in the cow lot: "Dear Papa and Mamma and Broth er, Sisters and Friends-Oh, my heart is grieved to tell you all that I must leave this old . world. I could not marry some one I do not love. I would die before I would spend a miserable life* so I must die this vary sight. When yea find me you will fit'.d me in the Tennessee River.

"It is an awful good thing to obey the commanda of the Lord," sayB a member of the recent Methodist gen eral conference from Pennsylvania to a Wasklogtou Tim?is man, "and when* ever I think of this I am reminded of a titory related of a pioneer Methodist named Valentine Gook, who was a power in his day, and who got off many odd sayings. , "Onoo there was a terrible upheav al of nature in the shape of an earth quake, and Dr. Cook woke up, finding his bed jostling and turuing.

" 'No, my dear,' he answered, 'When tho Lord comes I'll wait for no body. Good bye,' and out of the door he shot."_ i I Ml to Keep His Word. Ata not distant sohool the other day a gravo infraction of disciplino was committed. Tho teacher was very angry and oalled upon the guilty party to confess. Not one in tho class would tell, however, so the teaoher said he would thrash every boy in tho room and then he would bo sure to find the right one. This threat waB carried out, the teaoher starting with the first boy and thrashing every boy but ono. Finally ae he reached that last one MB anger had cooled a little. Thinking to be lenient, he said: "Now, tell me who did this and I won't thrash you." "All right, sir," was the reply. "I did it." And the school master had to keep his word.-Philadelphia Press. Tatdng The Farmer Down. A oouple of individuals were recent ly gazing with admiration at t. fine fat beast at a cattle show. "I wonder what his weight might bo?" observed ono of them, who, as it happened, was a oockney without any special knowledge. "It's easy enough to guess pretty nigh it," said the other man, a stal wart farmer, looking with some con tempt at his oompanion. "Oh, well," said the cookoey, "I think I could guess na near as you can." "Could ye now?" roared tho farmer. "Well, I'll bet ye a sovereign ye can't." "Done I" returned the oockney. "How muoh did you say?" After a critical survey the farmer replied: "A hundred and seventeen stones." AWeU,M said the oookney, "I'll say a hundred and seventeen stones, too, so hand over the money." "What d'ye mean?" "Well, I said I'd guesB as near aB you and I've done so. I've guessed exactly the same." And the bystanders taking his part, the bumptious farmer had to give him the mouey.-Tid-Bita The Southern's Tracks. The double tracking of the Southern railway has been completed from Alexandria, Vs., to Orange, Va., a distance of 85 miles. This greatly re Heves the congestion of trains on that end of the main line and will enable the road to operate trains to a muoh better advantage and with muoh bat ter regard for sohedule time. While no definite plans have been made for the extension of the double tracking further South, it is believed to be only a matter of a comparatively short time before this wilF be done and when it is, of eonrse, the fsoilities of the road for handling the immense a$d growing traffic will be greatly im proved and there will bo maoh less canoe for oom plaint than there has boon in the past. Doable tracking does away with all necessity for tak ing; a siding to allow a train coming from the opposite direction to pass and, in foot trains csa bo ran without regard to the movement of trains in the opposite direotion, the only care being to avoid running into the rear of trains going in the same direo tion. It will be a fine thing for the South when it oan have a double track railway and will greatly facilitate the movement of both passengers and freight traffic. It will result in a much quicker handling of freights and this, of course, will be muoh ap preciated by shippers ?ind consignees o! freight. 1 g* I g M A They overcome Weak ly 11 ? a& nesa? irregularity and Li 1 llwsV^w omissions,Increase vig ..'
