The debaters of a boys’ high school in Louis-

should only members of the political party in
power be appointed to Federal office?” When
they have settled this and the children of Yale
have settled the tariff, the politicians will come

KI,OKI DA’S N'KIV BISHOP.
Kcv. ThomaN Boone His Successor to the Diocesan
Committee.
The standing committee of the Protestant
Episcopal diocese of Georgia met in Atlanta last
week to act upon the resignation of the Rev. Ed
win G. Weed and to consider his testimonials as
bishop-elect of the diocese of Florida. The
committee could not do otherwise than accept
.the resignation of Bishop-elect Weed in consid
eration of the circumstances under which it was
offered; but they accepted it only with the deep
est regret, which they expressed in heartfelt
words. The committee proceeded to fill the va
cancy occasioned by Mr. Weed’s resignation of
his two-fold position as a member and the presi
dent of the committee.
The Rev. Thomas Boone, rector of Christ
church, of Savannah, was unanimously elected
president, and the Rev. Win. C. Hunter, rector of
Trinity church, Columbus, a member of the com
mittee.
The standing committee now consists of the
Rev. Messrs. Boone, Winchester and Hunter, and
Messrs. Z. D. Harrison, T. E. Walker and Hon.
Walter G. Charlton.
The testimonials of Mr. Weed were signed, and
the committee sent, in addition to the formal tes
timonial, a strongly worded commendation of
their own to the authorities of the diocese of
Florida. Mr. Weed has been a faithful member
•of the standing committee for several years, and
that faithfulness has been tried severely in the
past year. He lias been called to a higher posi
tion and a larger work, and the prayers, and good
m ishes, as well as the regrets, of the committee
^nd of the vast body of the members of the dio
cese go with him to his new and promising field
<of labor. Florida could not have chosen more
wisely, and she is to be congratulated that Mr.
Weed has accepted.
FACTS FROM FORT.SOX.
Crop PrONpeeb* and the Labor (Question—Personal
Notes.
Correspondence Enquirer-Sun.
Muscogee County, June 14.—Farming in our
.section on the whole is backward. Corn is look
ing very well since the late copious rains, but
.cotton, witb the exception of a few brag patches,
is exceedingly low for this date. The stand of
cotton is much better, however, than it has been.
Labor is scarce and high priced, and withal of
an inferior order. The price of labor is not con
trolled here as it should be, by the price of cot
ton and other farm products. This is especially
true of day labor. A hand asks as much now for
a day’s work as he did when cotton was bring
ing 12c., and corn, bacon and some other staple
commodities were selling for double their present
value. Some of our enterprising young farmers
are considering the expediency of clubbing to
gether and hiring a set of convicts to cultivate
•their lands. It is evident that a different plan
must be adopted, but it is just as evident that we
can’t all hire convicts, if that is practicable for a
few. Who knows what is best?
The wife and eldest daughter, Miss Lula, of
Mr. J. R. Thompson have been very unwell for

college, has returned home to remain.
Mrs. A. G. McCrary, who has been spending a
while in the city with a sick babe for medical

ANYTHING MAKES JMMiS MAD.
A Mnd Dog Killed at lioulhvnoil Yesterday—Dr.
Spitzka Says that Soft Soap D ili Ran Them
Mad.
Wr. William Ferry, who lives out at Beall-
wood, about two miles from town, owned a little
pet dog. On yesterday the dog went mail. It
ran all round foaming at the mouth, bumping up
against everything that happened to be in its
ivay. There were several young ladies staying at
Mr. Perry’s who were very much frightened, and,
in tact, the whole premises were greatly excited.
The dog was finally knocked on the head and
killed before it had bitten anyone or done any
damage at all.
It is a question with a great many people- and
among them those well versed in science-as to
whether there is such a thing as hydrophobia.
Or. E. C. Spitzka, of New York, recently has
written a very interesting paper on this subject,
based on his experiments in inoculation for
rabies. He said that hydrophobia was as yet but
imperfectly understood. He doubted if any such
disease existed in man. Among dogs most cases
of so-called rabies were of a very doubtful char
acter. The Newark pound keeper died from fear
and starvation, and not from hydrophobia. Four
of the Newark dog's victims were sent to Pasteur
and returned to show themselves in dime muse
ums. Two others who were not sent to Paris
have never shown any symptoms of li\ drophobia
and two dogs which the same dog bit did not die.
Dogs do go mad—insane—as human beings do ;
but Dr. Spitzka called it epileptic delirium, epi
demic miningitis, or some other malady of the
brain, due to readily discoverable causes. He
suspected that the dog that bit Miss Morosini
was not marl.
He believed that Pasteur had never had a case
of genuine rabies. He had himself produced in
dogs all the symptoms described by Pasteur as
peculiar to hydrophobia, and some of those dogs
still live, and were produced last night. One dog
he inoculated with soil soap- -that is he intro
duced sofa soap into his brain, and all the
symptoms of hydrophobia were produced, and
the dog died as mud as possible. In
another, the spinal marrow of a calf, the
meat of which had famished the doctor’s family
dinner, had served to kill a dog with apparent
hydrophobia, while other dogs, into whose brain
he had injected the actual poison of alleged hy
drophobia cases, had recovered.
He produced four dogs which he had trephined.
Into the brains of two of them he had introduced
part of the bftiiu of a calf; in Another caffe an
emulsion of calf’s cud. ami in the fourth case a
part of the brain of the man who died of sup
posed hydrophobia in Brooklyn recently.
These dogs had all shown symptoms of disease
partial pamlysis of the hind legs, wildness ol
the eyes, frothing at the mouth. The dogs wen
all bright enough last night, though slightly wob
bly ou the hind legs and a litlledull in their eyes
But they all seemed affectionate, and were
handled freely, and even permitted to run at
large in the room among the legs of the listening
factors.
One of the dogs, a bull pup, Dr. Spitzka chloro
formed to death. Its brain was removed to show
t« condition. Several block spots showed the
presence of foreign matter the matter which had
>een injected, and which had produced tin
symptoms of so-called rabies, which Dr. Hpit’ku
“ailed merely cerebral' meningitis.
COTTON FACTS.

The New York Financial Chronicle of JunoTSth
nukes the total visible supply of cotton 2,112.031'
tales, ail Increase as compared with last year o.
■J5.280, a decrease as compared with 1384 of 227,078
*.nd a decrease as compared with 1883 of SOD,6(59.
For the week ending June 11th the receipts at
:he Fnited States polls reached 22,773 bales,
miking tlie total since September 1st 5,207,949
bubs, showing an increase of 497,942.
The twenty-six interior towns for the week end-
ng June lltli, received 11,036 bales, shipped 31,970
and had stocks of 118,907 bales. Same time last
.ear they received 1851, shipped 9091 and had
stocks of 47.701.
The above totals show that the old interior
stocks have decreased during the week 19,531
bales an»l are to-night 61.009 hales more than at
the same period last year. The receipts at the
same towns have been 5922 bales more than the
same week last year, and since September 1 the
receipts at all the towns are 704,988 bales more
than for the same time in 1884-5.
The exports for the week ending this evening
reach a total of 81,287 bales, of which 73.822 were
to Great' Britain, 359 to France and 7106 to
the rest of the continent.
The Chronicle comments on its tabic of re
ceipts from plantations as follows :
The above statement shows—1. 1’hat the total
receipts from plantations since September 1, 1885,
are 5.311,006 bales; in 1884-85 were 4,740,493 bales;
in 1883-84 were 4,773,854 bales.
2.—That, although the receipts at the out ports
the past week were 22,773 bales, the actual move
ment from plantations was only 1839 bales, the
balance being taken from the stocks at the in
terior towns. Last year the receipts from the
plantations for the same week were 48 bales
and for 1884 they were 2655 bales.
In the table below we give the receipts from
plantations in another form, and add to them
the net overland movement to June 1, and also
the takings by southern spinners to the same
date, so as to give substantially the amount of
cotton now in sight.

It will be seen by the above that the increase
in amount in sight to-night as compared with
last year, is 819,233 bales, the increase as com
pared with 1883-84 is 792,106 bales, and the de
crease from 1882-83 is 470,694 bales.
The Chronicle’s telegraphic weather reports
for the week are thus summarized :
The weather during the week at the south has.
on the whole, been quite favorable. Further
benefit to the crop in the southwest and in por
tions of the west has resulted from rains, but in
sections of the Atlantic and Gulf states an excess
of moisture has given grass a chance to grow.
RAllXKY KKATRN’S BARGAIN.
How Gilbert's Rond nas Storked with h New,
'« Strange Klsli.
Newtown. Conn., June 12.—-Queer things
sometimes happen in this town, which the mem
bers of the New York riding club say they will
remember because here they got acquainted with
an aged landlord and the applejack which had
cheered him through 84 years of this earthly pil
grimage. A few days ago it happened that Bar
ney Iveaten, who lives in a pari of the township
known as Hattertown, drove down to Bridgeport,
and there by the sad Sound waves, bargained
with a fish peddler for some mackerel which
were said to be fresh and which were to be
had at a merely nominal price. Keaten must have
thought that he was in luck, for he bought four
half barrels of the fish, and, getting them into
: his wagon, drove on toward Hattertown in
triumph. Arrived safely at home he made a
I closer examination of liis purchase and found
| that the fish were decidedly overripe, and a good
deal better fitted for a fertilizer than for tood.
Keaten had no desire to let his neighbors know
I of his famous bargain, and when the shades of
! night had fallen he took the half barrels to Uil-
| ben’s pond and threw them in. One of the
J casks was broken somewhat, but Keaten thought
j nothing of that, and hied him home to
j ponder on the deceitfulness of fish peddlers.
During the night the fish in the broken half
| barrel began to swell up and take on something
; that approached their appearance in life. Early
I in the morning several anglers came down to the
| pool, and one of them gravely and unsuspiciously
j let his line down into the water just above the
i half-opened cask. Two or three times he twitched
1 his line, and the last little pull was rewarded by
what seemed a nibble. Carefully the fisherman
drew in the wet string, and his eyes came near j
bursting out of his head when he brought to the
surface a fish that was twice as large as the big
gest bullhead he had ever caught. The fish was |
certainly very placid : it made no resistadee to be- i
ing caught, and lay on the grass a moment later
with never a quiver to mark a departing life. It i
must he a new species, the angler de- !
ckled—one that died easily. He looked |
it over, felt of it, ami reflected. ;
Then he dropped his line into the water, re- ;
peated his former operations and again pulled I
in one of the strange fish, a mate of the first one .
j only a trifle bigger. Two or three times the I
thing was repeated, until the fisherman thought
. of breakfast, and running a string thiough the !
g'lls of his captives, carried them home. ITe j
1 tried one that morning and found it very high i
1 flavored gamy in the extreme. Later in the day
| he visited the pond and again hud great luck. As
; the new fish seemed lo be perishable, the lucky j
j man distributed them among his neighbors, and
! several families had a fish dinner. All opinions
■ agreed on one point- the fish were rather strong {
in flavor.
j How long the new species might have been
j sought by the fisherman is hard to tell, had not
! an ambitious small boy gone in swimming and .
discovered the tubs. Then there was an inyesti- |
| gallon, and Mr. Keaton’s bargain was hoisted •
out upon dry land. Promising theories about a
1 subterranean passage up from the sound went j
! dow.. with a crash, and two or three men
! thought that fish dinners were coming up to j
! meet them. Stocking a respectable pm»d with i
1 spoiled mackerel was no joke, especially when j
an innocent public had happened to suffer there- ■
by. Keaten w«is known to have gone to Bridge- j
. port, where mackerel grow, ami -tmpicion point- .
: ed its finger at him. Terrible thing.*- might have |
happened had not a ne : ghbor conn* forward and I
agreed to cart otf the mackerel for use on his |

FOUR MONTHS AFTER DEATH.

Rockingham, N. C'., Spirit ol'the South.
Rev. Lindsey, who formerly resided and
preached in this county, was able to boast
that he was born four months after liis
mother had been dead land buried. Here
is the explanation: His mother, who re
sided in stewartville township, this coun
ty, fell ill, and, to all appearances, died,
and was buried in Stewartville cemetery.
The night following her interment, ghouls,
for the purpose of securing some jewelry
that was buried with the body, unearthed
the remains, when consciousness returned
and she was enabled to return to her
home.
Arriving at her late residence site rapped
at the door and was answered by her hus
band, who demanded to know who we t
there. To his great astonishment the
answer came: “It is your wife.” He was
not quick in opening the door, but dually
did so. and was overjoyed to meet again
in life his beloved wife, whom he had
mourned as dead. Four months afterward
Rev. Mr. Lindsey was horn, and she sur
vived several years. This is indeed a
strange story, but we are assured it is
literally true.
Don't Overdo It.
A glib tongue is not one of earth’s rari
ties, yet it is not every possessor of it that
understands how to manage the jolly
proprieties of table talk. To rattle through
it with credit to himself and protit to his
fellow-guests, he muHt know what and
when to speak and how to take graceful
advantage at any gap in the conversation—
indeed, to prevent the occurrence of any.
To do this without the appearance of ob
trusion or vanity or risking the reputa
tion of a character, constitutes the art of
table-talking. The dinner-giver—we mean
him who selects his guests with the knowl
edge that the success of his dinner will
depend in a great measure upon their
conversational powers—understands that
it is not essential that all the company
should be accomplished table talkers. Ex
pedience does not always allow this, and,
If it did, the result would not be entirely
desirable. Good listeners, whether at the
table or elsewhere, are ns indispensable as
good talkers, for the jest or the story owes
the life of its success more to the ear of
him who hears than to the tongue that
speaks it. Therefore an over-abundance of
good talkers at a banquet would result in
their being in each other’s way, and, like

1 reliable estimate a* to the temperature <>f tin

subtle and difficult that m* absolute conclusions
have yet been arrived at in regal’d to it. Sir Isaac
, New-t«»n th'-ogid that the heat of the .-'in was at
j least 2000 timt * greater than the teinjierature «»f
nd hot iron. Pouillet calculated that the solar
heat which falls on <i square jentimeter nearly
a seventh part of a square inch) of the
tenestrial surface is sufficient to raise
1.7633 grams nearly a troy pennyweight) of wa
ter one degree of centigrade every minute; and.
•having adopted this as what he termed a “ca-
. loric,” or constant unit of solar heat, he, esti-
m rt ting backward, inferred that the heat issuing
from a similar measure on the surface of the sun
would there serve to melt a layer of ice 11.So
, meters <36 feet 1 inch thick every minute,
j Pouillet spoke of a temperature somewhere be
tween 2620 and 3170 Fahrenheit as the proba
ble amount of the heat of the sun. Erics-
l son a. sumed the enormously higher
quantity of 4,000,000’ Fahrenheit. Prof. Langley,
, from observations made with his recently con
structed bolometer, or ray measure—a very sen-
! sitive instrument, in which calorific vibrations
are converted into electric currents -gives a* a
| probably exact result from 1800 to 2000 Centi-

an order that they be not fired in ordinary
practice.
