back almost empty handed. This season
they've had a good run of fish. New catch
now in, and they're beauties.
We got wind of a fleet of vessels which came

Sam Jones in Union.
As per program Sam Jones arrived in
Union last Saturday, and delivered bin
lecture in the Second Methodist chuich
at night on the Politician. Every reserved
seat had been sold, and nearly all
the 60 cent seats were taken; the receipts
from the sale of tickets being in the
neighborhood of $176.
He gave the politician fits, and eaid if
he was running a soap factory in hell, he
would not consider them fit to use. He
said they were the curse of the country.
He scored the men, who usually moye to
the factoiy, put all their children in the
factory to work and make a living for
the whole family, while he loafed around,
-u a i.t * *

they were fit subjects for white caps, and
should have their dirty hides tanned.
He said no man had an excuse for beiDg
a drunkard, that it was his family who
suffered for it. He said the contemptible
dirty rascals should be in tlie cliaingang.
He hit at the dudes and dudeeses; said
the dude was the devil's goat, and the
dudeas the devil's nanny goat. An idle
head is the devil's own workshop; everyone
should be made to work. lie had
worked in the mines nnd shouldered his
sack of flour and chunk of meat and
carried them home to his family many a
time. He was not in favor of free schools;
said the State had no right to educate
your kids no more than it did to feed
them. He said that his wife and he had
agreed that when they got too poor to
send their kids to school, they would
go out of the kid business. The people
may think he was talking mighty plain,
but hoped they didn't And any difficulty
iu understanding him. Jones likes the
trusts, and is putting in some licks in
their favor. He compared things in the
trusts with tho^e out of the trusts, and
thought thoee in them were much cheaper
and more commodious than those outside.
He said if he lived on a certain
railroad that was not in the trusts, he
would sue the company for damages for
the trains shading his crops, they run so
slow. He had never seen any woman
prettier than his wife. When a man
' found a woman prettier than his wife,
) he was fixing to break into the chain
' gang, and when a woman found a man
I prettier than her hnsband, that woman
. is fixing to go to the devil. The sweetest
r place on God's green earth is a happy
home. A little home in Cartersville,
Ga., was the dearest place on earth to
' him. He was dortn on divorce business.
[ Every divorced nan or woman should
be put in the penitentiary for the bah
? ance of life. When a man had a wife and
1 five or six children, God had done a heap
[ for that man. His children was an evij
dence of God's pleasure, but when a man
had got one of these little dudeases, with
a poodle dog, God had'thrown off on that
* fellow. He could not see how a woman
Qjuld have such affection for a poodle
dog, unless it was her natural love for
ber husband's kin folks. He did not
know which was worse, to live a drunkard's
life or be a drunkard's wife. He
advised all married people to stick together
for better or worse, though lie
thought some of them had a hard job on
hand. He scored the mill owners for
contributing only $25.00 per annum for
the support of that church; said lie would
give a negro church more than that. He
said this mill should have the blue ribbon;
oleared several thousand dollars in
one deal, and gave the church $25.00.

in all his rounds. lie said the directors
bad bristles 6 inches long on their backs.
He said Gould gave several thousand
dollars a year to have his dogs taken
care of, and this mill only gives ?25.00
to help take care of the souls of its opsr
itives. lie said some pe ?p'e w ere s > narnw

lie was talking plain, but was talking to
a banl >et. He cited John I'ettij >hn as
a model of liberality, and said we ought
to have more of bis kind. Some ladies
would spend more for an Easter bat
than they would give during the year to
the cause of Christ. Tbey might sing:
Must Jesus bear the cross alone
And every one go free;
There's a cross for everyone,
And an Easter hat for me.
Some people did not have sense enough
to go to hell. The idea of an idiot in
hell. He said some men when they call
their children should say, piggy, piggy,
aa they were sons of hogs, and shoula be
called pigs. If be had an order for a
hundred of these narrow minded fellows,
who thought themselves so big, in
a call for sentiment and symp ithy, he
would not express them or send them by
freight, but would put them all in a
match dox, put a one-cent stamp on it
and mail it.
In contrast to all the above he indulges
in some of the most beautiful and flowry
sentiments, sometimes bringing the tears
from the eyes of his hearers. He has
wonderful oontrol over his audienoe, as
l well as his vninA nnti foatnrps and l?ia
mimicry is fine. His witty and humorous
sayings, ridiculous compaisors
are irresistible. There is certainly only
one Sam Jones It is said that the Ix>rd
only made one as an experiment, then
threw away the pattern.
He preached a sermon Sunday, which
was listened to by a large congregation.
It was interspersed with scathing rebukes
and with tender sentiment, and
was full of about the same kind of stuff
the above. The collection was $225.
