Holmes Is very popular among his
own people. He doe* not handle poli

sound advice and advice which (hey
can depend on they go lo him. His
white friends are numerous and he Is
popular with them.
■That Is all right about the 'duel.’"
said Holmes last night. “I see those
barbers In Bavunnah are sending me
marked papera about it. But they
don’t aay anything about that bluff
they made when th»y aaid Savannah
had the beat colored barber lo the
south. T offered to compete with any
one of them and they went flying Into
their lioles. I may not light ‘duels'
to suit them, but 1 could lose any one
of them around a barber's chair. They
know It. too. and they don't dare to
earnestly contradict It."

THE CONTRACT DONE.
All the Rock the City Bargained For
Furnished.
All the rock contracted for by the
city has been supplied by Contractor
Halllhan. This la the rock that has
been supplied from the nuariies up the
canal.
When the contract was proposed It
caused a difference of opinion among
M!Ouncilmcn v but the contract side of
the house carried the day.
The lot of a trained nurse Is particu

she must tell visitors to her patient

A CRAP SHOOTER'S FLIQMT.
Hr. J. T. Paschal neats Him at Ni
agara Falla.
Mr Jack T. Paschal, flagman for th*
Georgia railroad, cf Harlem, has Just
returned from an extended trip In the
north and *nxt He tells one very Inter
esting little Incident.
While at Niagara Falls he aaw s lit
tle negro urchin on the streets. He
thought that he knew the boy. nod. In
fact, a moment or so after the boy
was seen, the lad hatted Mr. Paschal
and asked him if he didn't snow him
“Yes, I know you. 1 thought 1 recog
nised you. What are you doing here?"
"Well, boss," the urchin replied,'"l
goln' to tell you all ‘bout It. M* and
some more boys was sbootln' dice and
Policeman llatcher get after us. He
got after me In special and I thought I
better get away. And I know If I was
to go back there that policeman would
get me sure, and that Is how I come
here.”
The negro lad, seemed as happy as
happy could he.
Safety Elevators.
Elevators have now been rendered
safe in ease of fall by means of air
cushions. An elevator In the Empire
building. New York, was allowed re
cently to fall 20 stories. The fall of
300 feet did not break eggs lying on a
marble slab in the middle of the car
nor spill water from a glass.
Take a l.augh.
(Denver Times.)
When you seem to want to worry—
Take u laugh.
Do not fret and roam and hurry—
Take a laugh.
There Is nothing made by sadness,
Lots of profit, though, in gladness.
And there's method e'en tii madness—
Take a laugh.

Sumter People Sorry.
The people of Sumter seem to regret
that the Ohio Rtver and Charleston
road Inis passed under the control of
the South Carolina and Georgia road.
The Item contains the following on
the subject.
“The consolidation of the Three Ca
railroad with the South Carolina and
Georgia system removes alt hope of the
extension of the former road from
Camden to tills city. The Sumter nnd
Camden road will never he built, un
less by an independent company, and
that, we fear, is not to h? hoped for.
as an Independent line would not be
self-sustaining, owing to the fact that
the expense of operating it would be
out of all proportion to the earniugs.
since it would be almost wholly de
pendent upon local' business. The
dream that Sumter would some day
he on the main line of a great western
nnd deep-water railway system has
vanished, and it Is now more impor
tant than ever before that those <vho
are interested in the future of Sumter
should liostir themselves to promote
the construction of the Sumter ami
Wnteree rrilrond. This road offers the
only feasible outlet for Sumter, and Ihe
only one of which there is the slightest
probability of being built.”—News and
Courier. j

High Praise tor flllos.
(From th* Philadelphia Times.)
Col. John A. Hull, of lows, who
nerved ito the staff of Gen. Miles at
Santiago and In Porto Rico, arrived
here ihln morning. He says: "I never
saw such a roan as our senior major
general. He is a* active physically as
he is mentally. To uae a common but
very expressive phrase. There I# not a
laxy bone In hts body.' Moreover, no
Isxy man can remain with him long.
He puts on no style and thinks noth
ing of hta persona! appearance when he
Is In the field. Hts entire soul is ab
sorbed tn hts work. When there was
difficulty In unloading transporta and
wheu the officer* seemed to be tn the
least incapable of performing their
duty, he went to work himself like a
hired man. and hie staff officers went
to work. too. There was no standing
around and looking on at anything.
"Gen. Miles worked like a beaver at
everything. He was Intent’)’ alert, per
sonally looking a'ter- every branch of
the army. He was on all parts of the
line, constantly on the go. He person
ally saw that the quartermaster s work
was properly performed. He person
ally saw that the commissary's depart
ment was up to date with food for the
men. He personally saw that medical
supplies were on hand, and that the
medical officers were tn their places,
ready for every duty. I did not know
him In Washington, and it may be true
thnt he ts dressy and sly'.lsh in hts
appearance, but I saw film daily in the
field, and his personal appearance was
certainly never considered by himself.
His whole mind was on his army. Its
comfort and success. He kept every
body on the move. Moreover, his or
ders were obeyed with alacrity.
"Every mun that served under Gen.
Miles admired him, and all were will
ing to go wherever he might lend or
direct. Soldiers who have served un
der him for years say that bis soldiers
have alwriys been eager to obey him.
and in every way manifest their confi
dence in him and V-’gSid for him. 1
have never been a hen? worshipper, but
1 am a very warm admirer of General
Miles.”

{true that three ar* thoa* who would

I in (be ward Is that It wa* a long step

The m**n thing about th* *ntlre,

have given the proper rebuke to that.
COLOR LINE ON THE CARS.
The Tift ot Today on Part of Colored
People Jo he Forgotten Soon.
There tan't any queation that the tlft
of the colored people over the required
enforcement of state taw regulating j
accommodations for the race* on the
street cars will be entirely forgotten j
a month after the colored regiment j
leaves Augusta's vicinity.
It has beco the exceptional ease
where the white people of Augusta and
the colored people here did not get
clong alt right here. Now and then a
negro cornea along from the east and
causes trouble a* was the case with
the big negroes who gave trouble on ,
the cars last winter, and as Is the case
with the negro scldlera. Ths negro
ecldlers who belong to Augusta did
not give Huy of th? trouble.
It Is generally believed that after the
negro troops are gone. It will be found
that the old status will be resumed.
A colored leader admitted to a re
porter yestej'ilay that the colored
ministers and editors bad made a
mistake. To boycott the railroad be
cause of the enforcement of a state
taw was unjust to the railroad. Be
sides, eo far as home colored people
wece concerned, they did not use tha
ears for luxury.
Bombardment Statistics
Prove that a bombardment is not such
a terrible thing after all. In 1870-71
the bombardment of Belfort lasted 78
days, during which 90.453 projectiles
fell within the city, and there were but
GU victims killed or fatally wounded.
At Strasburg. during the siege of 38
days, ttie Germans fired upon the city,
mostly al close range, 198,722 shells,
with a record of only 300 victims. Fin
ally, at Paris, where the bombardment
lasted only 23 days. 10.000 siege shells
were thrown, killing and wounding
107 persons.

TH! HORAE AFPERS
They Marled a Trade on lilt* Street
and Lett Out.
It arena to he na natural for two
Georgia farmers ta trade horses as U
la for rabbits to Jump into briar
patches.
When two of tire ttrerhy husbandmen j
met rn Kill* at rent yraterday. In front (
of ('apt Kenned-’t. one driving a
borne to a trap, noticed that tb* o>P*f
bed a good locking mute, the animal
being led la tb* rear of tb* wagon.
Prepositions were made and a swap
wa* soon made, the man swapping the
hers* for thr mute, securing "boot" tn
a small amount. The horse wna un- i
bitched and tb* mule wa* put in his
■trad, the money const deration for the
swap having been made over.
When th* mut* wa* hitched up he 1
proved not to he the gentle animal
which hta frrarer owner had held he )
w*& The mule began to kick th- worat
kind of kick*. The new owner com
menced gening madder and madder.
The rhMdren of ihe elghborbood began
to gather.
"Why don't you drive him right?" •
acid the ex-owner.
"You get In her? and drive him." re
plied the new owner.
"Not cn your life. lam afraid he i
would kick me out of the trap.”
Tbt* made the new owner rag*. Hia
horse bad been alt right. He had had
no trouble with him. He wanted to
swap back, the ether man was wtli
tng. but the flrst man didn't want to
give up the "boot.” Thi* brought on
mere talk and the crowd grew larger ,
and larger.
About this time Lieutenant Desmond
rode up and put a stop to the quarrel- ,
ing, effecting a settlement of the busi
ness disagreement. Things were hot i
for a few moments, but everything >vas
finally arranged satisfactorily.
Spanish Proverbs on Women
Spaniards have a weakness for prov
erbs. The common, every-day conver
sation of the people contains scores of
ptthy sayings more or less wise that
express briefly the of the Castil
ians of various subject*. Among those
are some about women that do not
show a very high estimation of the
sex. and most of which would not ap
ply to American women, whether or not
they may be true of the land of the
castanets. Some of the best known
arc:
Choose neither wife nor linen by can
dle light.
Women and weather are not to be
trusted. No season ts as brief as a
woman s love.
A woman may be loyal to love, but
never to lovers.
Woman is a curious creature with
long hair and short ideas,
A girl's hair draws more than a
ship’s cable.

While th- preliminary results In th*

on the part of business Augusta that,
no matter what management the Au

Frills of Fashion.
Lace coats are much worn. They arc
three-quarter length and round tn
front.
Poppy-red will play a cheerful part
in Autumn fashion sand a handsome
gown is in cherry and white taffetas,
trimmed with black velvet ribbon.
Tailor-made gowns will have flounces
on the skins.
We are to wear velvet this fall, tuck
ed, stitched and strapped, even as
though It were cheaper material.
Feather boas, like all other popular
and too widely adopted favorites, are
now being replaced by the white tulle
boa covered with large chenille spots,
which is proclaimed the last adjunct of
the well dressed.
Lot's wife evidently suggested the ex
pression “rubber neck."
