AN EMANfTKL COUNTY MAN KILLS HIS

j/iDViLLE, Ga„ June 14.—This
morning at 9 O’clock a terrible tragedy
occurred in Emanuel county, neir' the
mills owned by Messrs- H. P, Smart

from her several weeks ago, and this
morning went back and attempted to
take their only child from her, a baby
Pour months old. The woman refused
to let him have it and lan off into a
field to escape; but he pursued and
shot [her down. He then took the
bloodstained babe and carried it back
to the house and left it on the piazza.
Before any one coufd capture Pierce
he escaped, and after several hours

Col. A- K. McClure, editor ttf the
Philadelphia Times, was interviewed
^by a reporter for the Denver News
some days ago. Here is what he said
About President Cleveland:
“The faet that Afi» Cleveland is a
greater tfiah than his paHy. instead of
leading huff he does the leading,
think Kb is the best president we have
ever had, as strong and substantial as
any man oould be. He doesn’t fear
the party, and, bn the contrary, it tears
him, and so they have to let him lead.
He maps ou£ his policy and the leaders
6f Democracy adhere to its principles.
He permits no man to dictate to him,
and when he has once made up bis
mind that a thing is right, no man
ean change it. Don’t construe my
meaning to be that he is obstinate, but
sinipfy that he is firm after convincing
himself that the stand he assumes is
justified by ciretiifistdhces and acts.

he has that stability Which recomtdends
him to business mefi. They kfibw that
his administration is not as brilliant as

give us; they also know that there is
nothing erratic of loose about its I re
gard his first term as .being a conserva

Bigns of weakness, and beneficial to
the country at large. He is not gov

Will add strength to the ticket, as he is
an able statesman and a man Of good

Country Life Continued,
Hitor Ndme rind. Farm: In Home and
Farm, April 15th, appeared an article
entitled “Country Life,” which seems
to be a popular topic fof discussion. 1
do not knbW why a Country girl cannot
enjoy herself. I have always lived in
the country, and have always enjoyed
It, and stiH prefer it to city life, I think:
It is true
“Man’s WdrM is from sun tb Sufi,
But woman’s work is never done.”
Uiitil judgment day comes; bat if we
do not enjoy ourselves it is our own
fault. We should take every thing fair
and easy and make it a pleasure, and
try to be happy. How pleasant it is to
rbatti through the woods and fields, and
see the thrifty growing crops, and lis
ten to the S0ng8 of the beautiful bird*!
I like to plant flowers, And see the busy
bee and whirring humming hird gather
the Iwfiets from them: If we are an
honest, hard-working people we will
be as happy in the country as any
where else. Girls ean be just afi stvlish
in the country as ia the city; and have
just as much fan and pleasure aS their

An exchange says that there are
many who refuse so support their
county papers, and yet when these men
or their friends come out for public
honors they want the county papers to
praise them np and work without pay
Unceasingly for their success. This is
true as can be. Again, these same
men condemn their county newspaper
for not exposing rascality and corrup
tion in high places, and yet when the
paper does expose such rascaHty these
men cannot find words severe enough
to express their denunciation of the ed
itor who dare* to show up such officials
as corrupt men. No matter bow true
his remarks are (so true that no denial
can be made) they denounce him all
the same. It is earnestly hoped that
the time vriU todri tomb When the masses
of the people tciU appreciate what their

A Demolished School System.
[From the New York Times.]
East St. Louis, III., June 18.—The
uttyr demoralization into which the
public school system of this bankrupt
city is now plunged is lamentable in
the extreme. Owing to the continued
plundering of the city treasurer’s vault
ho school houses have been built for a
great many years. The basements of
churches in the various wards are util
ised and public schools are held in
churches, The resalt has been that
each church has dictated the appoint*,
ment of teachers. The (7atholic Cbm oh
would name good Irish Catholic teach
ers, the Lutheran Church good Ger
man Protestants teachers, and the
Methodists and Baptists would have
American Protestants. Recently there
WAS a change in the City administra
tion and the new board of education
l efused to be dictated to by the churches
and made appointmebts all around.
The Church locked its doors against,
the teachers. Other denominations are
thinking of barring their doors, aiid
the chances for an education in East
© slim.

What the Country Needs ?
[Leading Article, New York Times.]
What the country most needs at pre
sent is by no means a man who did gal
lant service in the field twenty-five
years ago, but a man who can do good
service in Washington for the next four
years. It is fortunate that there is no
military reputation the glamor of whicK
is likely to lead the voters to overlook
this truth. Some of the men whose
names are discussed did creditable ser
vice during the war, though fione of
fhetn happened to make his name il-
lustrious. A merely creditable record
may be useful makeweight to other
claims, but it cannot be a substitute foi*

DESERTED BY HER PARAMOUR SHE
SHOOTS HERSEF AND WILL DIE;
Macon, GA.,June 18.— Annie Grank -
lin, a white woman of the demi monde,
shot herself this morning with snicidal
intent. The cause assigned was a
slight quarrel just prior to the shooting
between her and her lover, a merchant.
It is said that that he told her she
would have to “look to other friends
for future favors,” and this nerved her
to desperation. She is barely alive
and there is no chance for her recovery.
