FACTS ABOUT SAFFRON.
Its Cue In Medicine Has Prnctlcnllr
Died Oat.
Saffron would strike an ordinary cb
server as decidedly expensive at 50 shil?
lings per pound until told that it is
composed of the central small portions
only of the flowers of a species of crocus,
I 70,000 of which it takes to yield the ma?
terial for one pound. The wonder then
becomes that it is so cheap, that it can
pay to grow and gather it at the price.
As a matter of fact, it has failed to pay
the English grower?by this retaining,
in the name of his town of Saffron
Walden, but a hint of former impor?
tance in this particular direction?
French and Spanish soils being more
suitable to the full growth of the
flowers and foreign labor cheaper in
the work of picking. Its use in medicine
has practically died out, bar, perhaps,
the popular belief that, steeped In hot
milk or eider, it helps the eruption of
measles to fully appear, says Chambers'
Journal.
As a dye in creaming curtains and to
give a rich appearance to cake it is
still, however, in general demand; for
which purpose it Is well suited, in be^jig
both harmless and strong, one grain,
composed of the style and stigmas of
nine flowers, being sufficient to give a
distinct yellow tint to ten gallons of
water. Its high price, by the way, has
led to a peculiar form of adulteration;
for, apart from the crude and common?
place one of dusting with a heavy pow?
der, such as gypsum, to give weight, the
similar portions of other and commoner
flowers have been specially dyed and
worked thoroughly in among the genu?
ine ones.
THE JACK RABBITS OF TEXAS.
Not Commonly Used as an Article of
Food.
"The bigrabbits or hares that hangln
front of Washington restaurants are
not the jackrabbits or 'mule ears' that
abound on the Texas prairies," said Mr.
C. O. Kerns, of the Lone Star state, re?
ports the Washington Post. "The sort
that we have and that are common all
through the southwest are of a brown
color, identical with their small 'cotton?
tail' brethren that abound in Virginia
and Maryland, and that are numerons
all through the old southern states.
These imported hares with white bellies

?nals turn wnite in winter to match the
snowclad earth, and they are not nearly
as large as our Texas jackrabbits, nor
do they have the enormously big ears
that distinguish the Texas family. I
should say that ours will get over the
ground twice as fast as their Canadian
cousins. A greyhound is the only ani?
mal, in fact, that can overtake a mule
ear. An ordinary dog rtver forgets him?
self so far as to chase one for even the
distance of a city block. It would be a
rank waste of canine energy to do so.
The jackrabbit is regarded at home
more as an ornament to the landscape
than anything else. Hungry men in
camp who have run out of ordinary
grub will occasionally kill them to stop
the pangs of hunger, and they are said
to be really fine eating, but they are
not regarded as fit for the menu of the
average Texas family."

A BIT OF OLD GEORGIA.
The Quaint Town of Louisviffie
and Its History.
Once a Prominent Slave Market
Where Thomanda of Ncffrocs
Hare Been Sold?Some His?
torie Event?.
There stands In the center of the
principal street of the quaint old town
of Louisville, Ua., n queer structure. It
was built so long ago that those who
have grown old and gray in this former
capital of the state cannot tell of its
early history. Somewhere In che early
days before the "Yazoo speculation"
tfhis old "slave market" was erected,
and, althoug-h built of wood, it has
stood the storms of time, and the hewn
post oak beams and pillars nre as
sound now ns on that day when the
wrought-iron nails were first driven
into them, and the bell, which now
hangs cracked and toneless as a curi?
osity, pealed forth its brazen tones,
calling the dealer to bid at the "nigger
sale."
A very few people know that Louis?
ville was ever the capital of Georgia.
The star of empire talcing its way west?
ward came first to Savannah, then Au?
gusta, and on the ICth day of May, 1795,
the seat of government was changed
from Augusta to this little island vil?
lage, and here remained until 1S04?
after which Milledgcville was selected,
and, at a cost of $115,000, a capitol was
erected.
It was at Louisville that tlhe papers
and documents connected with that
giant swindle, the "Yazoo frauds," were
burned by Gen. James Jackson.
The story of the Yazoo frauds is a
long and intricate history. It is stated
that more than 100 duels were fought
about it. The pith of the story is about
as follows:
During the first years subsequent to
the revolution a few wealthy and un?
scrupulous men under oath of secrecy
formed what was known as the Com?
bined society.
Their scheme was to bribe theOeorgia
legislature and to buy from the state
3j.000.0OO acres of land in western
Georgia. Alabama and Mississippi, and
the price for all tRiis territory was only
to be !?.*00.000.
This purchase would have taken in
what is now the best part of three pop?
ulous states. These old-time swindlers
only wanted a part of the earth. This
would have been a deed to all Atlanta,
Chattanooga, Memphis, to say nothing
of 10,000 smaller towns. The arch
swindler was one Thomas Washington,
alias Walsh, a man of wonderful parts
History tells of (how the giant specu?
lator failed principally through the
courageous efforts of Gen. James Jack?
son. The conspirators actually car?
ried their bill through both houses of
the legislature and the governor's sig?
nature was attached.
On January 22, 179G, the general as?
sembly met and rescinded the action of
the former body. Gen. Jackson, for?
merly United States senator, resigned
his seat in the senate, came home and
was elected a member of this legisla?
ture from Chatham county. lie en?
gineered the rescinded bill through.
On the day following, by the order of
both houses, a fire was kindled in the
square and all the records and docu?
ments were publicly burned.
The clerk of the house was required
to cry in a loud voice: "God save the
state and long preserve her rights, and
may every attempt to injure her per?
ish as these wicked and corrupt acts
now do."
This occurred in tlhe year of our Lord
1799. Ninety-eight years ago. Yet
there can be seen in the courthouse
yard, <under the spreading shades, the
shallow excavation in the ground into
which the papers were piled.
The old governor's mansion was only
torn away last year, the capitol disap?
peared many years ago, and the old
slave market which inspires this sketch
will soon, too, give way before tlhe
march of nineteenth century push. A
water tower will probably take the
place of this hoary sentinel of time.
An old gentleman whom I met on the
streets of Louisville, and whose gray
hair and tottering form I could not help
comparing to the ancient landmark,
said:
"I know I've seen a thousand niggers
bid off here. The bell which hangs in?
side you will notice bears the French
coat of arms and is stamped 1772. I
Siave heard that this bell was captured
in colonial days from the deck of a
French privateer. It has only been
cracked since a few years before the
war."
The strangest part of the story is the
wonderful preservation of the timbers
in the old structure. They are all hewn
oak, put together with wrought-iron
nails, and the wood is so hard that I
don't believe it would be possible to
drive a nineteenth century -iil into it
with an ax.
Louisville of to-day Is still unpreten?
tious. It is the county seat of Jeffer?
son?named from that great father of
democracy and declarations.
Louisville has a one-gallus railroad,
which blows a long blow 15 minutes be?
fore the train starts back to the Central
railroad connection at Wadley, Ga.
The old town has many beautiful
homes and quiet, aristocratic families,
who trace their lineage back to colonial
times.?Atlanta Journal.
