But only on Account of the peculiar habit of the crea ture, which imagines itself hidden from ■view when its own head is covered in the sand, is the Telegraph like an ostrich. Os the feathered family the old bird on the corner resembles a goose more than any other living thing. But is is a nondescript. No one can tell 'whether it I dead or alive, for instance. If you pinch it, it squeals, hili it does not expose any human degree of anger when it is punctured through and through and riddled full of holes. You may* call it hard names, and it remains un changed. You may ask it questions, and it gives no evidence of understanding; it give* forth utterances intended for re plies, It Is true, but the replies arc inco herent and unintelligible. It is as a fish out of water, and has a hide thicker than any thing known to natural history. It is not Democratic, and protests against being called Republican; it has no known owner, •nor has It. any visible means of support, nnd yet It exists, and its utterances afford amusement to a limited number of read ers. Here is one of these utterances: “On yesterday the Telegraph printed a strong defense of Colonel Candler from one of Its valued friends in South west Georgia. On the same page (but curiously enough in the l acci dent of a hurried make-up it got sand wiched with editorial matter) we printed a communication from one of the ablest citizens of North Georgia, taking the op posite view. The people of all classes and conditions are convinced of our disposi tion to be fair and impartial.” This paragraph appears this morning un der the heading, “The Telegraph’s Way.” The letter mildly defending Candler was published in a remote corner of the fourth page of the Telegraph, -while In the same issue the communication in support of Mr. Atkinson was given what the editor of the editor of the Telegraph fools himself into thinking is the most prominent place 5n the paper, the editorial column. And this morning the old nondescript bushwhacker says that it was fair. The Candler letter Is printed, and the Atkinson letter, "curiously enough in the accident of a hurried make up, got sand wiched with editorial matter”! Was ever n more ridiculously' transparent and un grammatical bit of gabble and insincerity ’ ver uttered by that most insincere old goose ? If Secretary Jxmg keeps on denying this, that and the other about the Maine ca tastrophe. the people of the United States •will begin to regard the story of the ex plosion a pure fabrication. Dirty Politics. “Der Gang” is pursuing tactics that ■would disgrace anyone—except “Der gang." Their latest is another letter. The dler hud written a letter to a notorious ne ws an organ by “der gang,” (because they will take any old thing so long as it is an organ,) stated yesterday that Colonel Can dler had written a letter to a notorious ne gro and political heeler in Augusta, solic iting his support. Based upon this misera ble cannard the Telegraph reads Colonel Candler one of those impudently egotisti cal lectures that make it the laughing stock of the few people who take the time nnd the trouble to translate its editorial column into readable English. it is evident that the Telegraph was tiware of the miserable scheme to catch Colonel Candler and to make capital out of his courtesy to a corerspondent. The best explanation of the letter and Colonel Cand ler’s collection with it can be found in Colonel Candler's own words. He says: "I have seen the use which has been made of the Hight correspondence, and of it I have only >this to say: 1 have made it a rule all my life to answer every court eous communication addressed to me, whether it be from a millionaire or a pau per. I received from Augusta a letter signed by Thomas Hight, offering me his hearty support, stating that he had been n staunch supporter of Governor Atkinson in the last campaign and intimating that he had been an active worker for the Democratic cause. I replied to the letter just as I would to any courteous communi cation, and my reply speaks for itself. Not being a bushwhacker myself, I am not constantly on the lookout for those who en joy this kind of business; but I would not hesitate to write a courteous letter even to a bushwhacker. * I am a man who has always had great faith in the honesty of the human race and it is my principle in life to deal open ly with every man who approaches me in an honorable and courteous wav. i have never posed as an expert politician but I can be in politics and be a gentleman at the same time, and it would be exceedingly distateful to me to put myself in an atti tude of suspicion toward every man who writes me what appears to be an hones* ietter tendering me his support. Os course J thought that the Hight letter came from a loyal Democrat, and that it was a sincere' expression of good will, it aPPe ars not /but I am willing to submit the wuole mat ter to an honest public and accept its judgment. If those who are responsible for the affair can stand it. I certainly can.” Would it not be well for “der gang” to stop this kind of politics’ Os course so far as they are concerned It is suicidal or •would be if the suicide of a corpse was possible, but when they hire a negro to •write a letter to an honest courteous gen tleman and life long Dsmwrat, such as Colonel Candler, in order to trap him into a rep»y, out of which they can make capi tal for their cause, it is time for decent s: en to out loose. You can’t run with "der gang” and keep clean. The war whoops have sent wheat on a ballooning expedition. The Savannah Press reports the organ ization of a big Candler Club in that city. ...-A-- . Savannah Patriotism. The Savannah Press describes an inci dent of Washington’s birthday which could only have been made possible, perhaps, by the existing conditions consequent upon the Maine incident a* follows: “Probably one of the most impressive scenes enacted in Savanna a in the past thirty years took place on the military parade ground yesterday. The line was formed and the First Georgia regiment had been in review by the military dignita ries of the United States a:my composing the Cartes eourt martial. There were of ficers among them wto had seen service on the field and on the plains; men who had won honors and medals for distinguished and who formed one of the most interesting group* to the eye of the vol unteers as well as to that of the people. Just then the regimental band, which is composed entirely of white musicians, started the “Star Spangled Banner,” and before a half dozen notes had been played bats were raised not only by the officers but by hundreds of people whose patriot-. ism was spontaneously eleicited at this critical moment. The regimental flag flut tered in the bbeeze and the eyes of thou sands were centered upon it. The spirit of the national anthem seemed to thrill everybody and during its rendition there | was a silence such as seemed impossible in such a large assemblage. The music of that stirring anthem never seemed sweeter and it acted on the people like an inspi ration. The scene was most affecting. It must have been a great one to the United States officers, some of whom remarked afterwards that they never witnessed the i like and that it left an Impression on t'hem that they never would forget. The German scientist who says the wo men of the future will have beards de serves to be elected an honorary member of the barbers’ union. ‘‘Picturesque Zola.” Undoubtedly the most picturesque figure in France today Is Emile Zola. The an nouncement of his conviction and sentence to one year’s imprisonment was received by the world at large—the reading and ob servant world—with complacency, not be cause the world thinks that Zola Is guilty of an offense deserving of a year’s im prisonment, but because it was a foregone conclusion that conviction would follow. Zola stands today as the one man honest enough and great enough to point out to France her faults, and the French courts, corrupt and debauched, have done the only thing open to them —they have convicted him. But while the Paris mob is spitting upon him the outside world is ready to applaud. Zola's position as a writer is somewhat anomalous. Always when there has been a vacancy in the French Academy he' has been defeated; the "immortals” will have none of him, which fact of itself is neces sarily a bitter pill to him. The critics And most of his books highly flavored, even for French taste; but there are two opin le.ns concerning his object in thus drag ging vice into the high places of litera ture. Those who oppose him say that his pen pictures are willful exaggerations, drawn to pander to prurient public taste, and so to line his own pockets with gold. His supporters, on the contrary, claim that he is essentially a realist, and that his books are faithful delineations of the social rot tenness of the gay city, written with a view of co opening people’s, eyes as to create a revolution along these lines. If the later''is his object, then he has writ ten some very bad books for a good end, but It is doybtful whether they will achieve his purpose. All this, however, makes it passible to question his motives in the Dreyfus matter. ‘Had his writings been of .a more sedate character the people would have been ready to hail him as a reformer; but with all those bad books piled up behind him, he becomes, instead, an agitator, a malcontent. But leaving his motive out altogether, his action has certainly been one of singular courage. It was whispered to him that a great wrong had been done—a wrong that crushed an individual and warped a na tion’s integrity. And almost single hand 'd he threw himself into the breach to res cue a stricken fellow creature, and save the honor of his country. It is a spec tacle one dots not see every day. It took something more than sensationalism to make him take up the cudgels for a con demned man not of his own blood, not , even of his own race. He has been a close student of French character, and knew al this fight meant, all the bitterness, all the frenzy it would arouse, and evidently he was neither shamed nor afraid to face it. He may be theatrical, even hysterical; but he is at the same time courageous and resolute. The Spectator and Saturday Review, of London, both able, conservative and pros perous journals, have expressed the belief that France has promised to aid Spain in the event of war between the latter coun try and the United States. The expression of belief is surrounded with a deal of cir cumstantiality that that commands, at least, a careful reading. There is also a belief that the Spanish government is look ing, not vainly, but hopefully, to the Triple Alliance for aid. It will take more than journalistic speculation to make the peo ple of this country believe that either Fiance, Germany, Italy or Austria would extend comfort to the dons In case of war with us. No matter the view-point, it is illogical to coincide with the London no- Kaiser William. The unexpected might happen in that quarter. He is, however, so engrossed in colonial aggrandizement as to preclude his giving much attention to Castilian cries. In speaking of a contemporary, a North Dakota editor calls him “our esteemed friend, the bare-faced liar across the street.” During the woman’s suffrage convention a paper on .“The 'Norsk Kvindestemmerets forenvig must have been an interesting document. M itnesses in the Zola trial have such a refreshing habit of addressing the jury that lawyers seem to be wholly unneces sary. Colonel W. S. Wallace, of Forsyth coun ty. is mentioned as a possible candidate senator from the twenty-third district. Representative J. K. Thompson, of Banks, is making an aggressive fight for senator from the thirty-third district. Hon. William Henderson has announced himself a candidate to represent Irwin county in the general assembly. Is there anything in the long list of ail ments Senator Hanna is not afflicted with? Lumbago is the latest. Hon. John T. Allen will probably be a candidate for representative from Bald win county. SIOO REWARD SIOO. The readers of this paper will be pleased to learu that there is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure in all its stages, and that is catarrh. Half’s Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh being a constitutional disease requires a constitutional treatment. Hall’s Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby destroying the foun dation of the disease and giving the pa tient strength by building up the consti tution and assisting nature in doing its work.

Cincinnati, Feb. 25. —Colonel Finch, who is at the head of the animal department of the Humane Society, says that there is almost an epidemic of (paralysis among Cincinnati horses this winter. “Every horse that the Humane Society has removed in its ambulance this win ter,” said he, “has -been afflicted in this manner. We have had twenty-nine cases, i ail of valuable animals. The strangest case of this kind that we have had was a horse belonging to Doerr, the confectioner.

Boston, Mass., Feb. 25.—La Belle Frieda and Phil Hamberg were before the muici pal court yesterday bn complaint of the Watch and Ward Society, which objected to the way they danced the couchee-cou chee. In defense -tiheir lawyer proposed t'o give the court optical proof that the per formance was not objectionable, and an ad journment ,was taken to the lobby, where Freida doned her tights and danced her prettiest for the judge. So successful was she that his honor dismissed the case. Household Guds. The ancient Greeks believed that the Penates were the gods who attended to the welfare and prosperity of the family. They were worshipped as household gods in ev ery home. The household god of today is Dr. King's New Discovery.

SNUG SUM FOR A NURSE. Wealthy People Adopted Her and Then Cut Her Off. Chicago, Feb. 25.—Mrs. Minnie Haugha wout, a handsome young nurse of 23. has notified her parents here that a wealthy young woman, whom she had nursed in New Orleans, had presented her with a purse of $40,000. Mrs. Haughawout has had a romantic career. She was born in Spain, the daughter of a Spanish father and a French mother. She was adopted by a wealthy family in Cincinnati. Her parents violently opposed he? mar riage to Haughawout, but they gave her a snug amount of property as a wedding present, cutting her off, however, from in heriting a greater portion of their estate. Mrs. Haughawout left her husband and came to Chicago, where she became a pro fessional nurse.
