Although the job pays but $75 per month, and the men have to • furnish everything from handcuffs to • horse, several men who are making well above that monthly stipend are endeavoring to convince the county that It needs them on Its payroll. Although one of the strict require ments of a county policeman Is sobrle. ' ty, dozens of more or less frequent apreers are telling what fine men they are for the Job, and go ahead and subscribe their names to the statement on the application blanks that they are "strictly sober and in no wise addicted to the use of Intoxicants." . They have been crowding Mr. Wood's •office all day, laboriously writing out their applications, while they ponder lover the questions: "Are you masried or single ?" and "What was your last Job?" “Some of them haven't seen their last Job In so long that they wouldn't know It if they met It tn the road," said one of the county officials. One applicant Couldn't write and some one had to .-make out his blank for him. The majority of the men, however, look as If they would make good offi cers. The varied assortment Includes city firemen, city policemen, street rail way employees, farmers, constables.I some unclassified and others who could almost be classed as "bums." E. V.

It Is generally conceded by those who have kept up with the political situa tion since the recent primary, that Hon. Henry H. Cabanlss, of Fulton, and Hon. E. L. Martin, of Bibb, will be the secretaries of the Democratic convention In Macon, when It assem bles nexff Tuesday. That Mr. Cabanlss Is slated for ogf of these places there , can be no doubt, for Hon. Hoke Smith's official organ has stated that he "will be put forward for one of the secretaryships of the State Democratic convention that ls to meet In Macon, September 4" The suggestion of these two names for secretaries of that convention has brought on more talk, to the effect that It may mean that these gentlemen may respectively oppose . Hon. Charley Northen for secretary of the senate, and Hon. John T. Bolfeulllet for clerk of the house. A close friend of Mr. Cabanlss said Wednesday that Mr. Cabanlss would offer for secretary of the convention, but would not run for secretary of the senate. In naming these men as secretaries of that convention, an unbroken prece dent for over a quarter of a century will be set aside. Ever since Bill Har ris, of Worth, and Mark Hardin, of Bartow f , became secretary of the sen ate and clerk of the house, respective ly, It has been the custom for these of ficers to act aa secretaries of the Democratic convention. Should these gentlemen contest with Messrs. Northen and Bolfeulllet, there would be considerable conjecture as to the final outcome. The latter have the bulge, so to speak, as they have been campaigning for several months, and If the former should win out, It would be* due almost entirely to the moral effect of the overwhelming Smith victory. Messrs. Northen and Bolfeulllet, It ls said, are not losing any sleep over this anticipated opposition, as both of these gentlemen, so It was stated at the cap- Itpl Wednesday, claim that they have already- pledged to them more than enough votes to Insure their re-election. One of the real surprises of the cam paign, however. Is the overriding of the unbroken precedent of the past for the clerk of the house and secretary of the senate to serve as socr«fnrle» of the state Democratic convention.

Philadelphia, Aug. 2V.—A crowd of angry depositors, Including many wo men, clashed with the police today.tn front of the collapsed real estate trust company building at Broad and Chest nut streets. The tine blocked the city's business and the detail of police left on guard over night was unable to cope with them. At first the women depositors gave vent to their feelings by tears, but finally the crowds pressed forward and made threats against the officers. With tho greatest difficulty the police kept them from storming the building. The victims refused to disperse, how ever, even when threatened with arrest, and further outbreaks are expected. "Kill the officers now and Investigate later,” shouted an excited man In the crowd. He was promptly arrested. Reserves Called OuL The bank building Is closed and even the employees are barred. Many aged clergymen are among those who suffered through the 27,000,000 failure.

New York, Aug. 29.—Overmastered by grief so deep that hla mind was In a daxe. because of the death within an hour of each other of his wife and daughter, Adolph L.

(Copyright, 1906, by W. R. Hears!.) N this day of higher civilisation and cultivation, when specialists In all branches of life are so In rogue, per haps, one snonld hardly be surprised at the rivalry existing between the churches of God, and although “au fod,” all must ack nowledge that true religion Is not an ac ceptance of any particular creed or a bur den of commandments, still there are many prominent ministers of today who tnny be Justly termed "religious special ists." If Indifference Is paralysis of the soul. Is not united energy proportionately powerful? And are not rivalry. Jealousy and antag onism always equally dangerous to co-work ers for the same goal? In ordinary life, such conditions create mutiny, whleh fact should make all imiisc and reflect upon the effects of reUglous differences upon the soul. Love Is not dependent upon Intellect, and the bond of true religion la not that all be alike In mind, but akin In soul. Intelleetuul staudnrds of goodness ami charity can only be partially satisfactory; for no bare theory ever reaches the human heart's core—sympathy born of love aud suffering con alone accomplish that. undoubtedly a nnniuii, um ... .. ici mill CXteUt It doadcUS the Individuality which prompts nobility, for the overpoilshcd man, when Incapable of sinking Into certain vulgar crimes, also becomes apathetic and almost equally In capable of rising to greatness, while self- sacrifice and all forms of privation and suf fering bring one more In touch with hu manity, purity and beget active heroism and nobleness. The whole Bible Is a treatise on univer sal lore-that nud that only ns a means of salvation, "Judge not, that ye be not Judged," yet what more conducive to gen eral Judgments, narrow, fashionable and personal Interpretations of love, charity nud religion ? Theoretical religious arguments are rarely convincing to any classes, for the truly or thodox Christians realise that contentment Is only found lu faith and the acceptance of Und's greatness, whereas certain forms of Investigation can only produce unrest nud disquiet; but Just ns certain arguments are powerless to effect well founded, sim ple faith, to also are they equally unset tling and confusing to the weaker, super* stltious and Ignorant classes.
