POETRY AND POLITICS. Some Excellent Verse Growing Out of the Legislative Race. Nearly all of th< Legislative candidate* have bun mlng circular letters, as well as penton.il a.pp« il* and other means, to make votes, and not the leant active of the num lx r Is Mr Roland Ellis, Bibb's bril liant young attorney who is generally re puted to J>o far in the lead jn this race. Mr Kill has been condu ting a very vigorous campaign and has niad< friends almost every vhere. H< has secured nu niirou promt rbut it was not until yesterday th;.: any voter attempt!.l. along with bls. promise, to immortalize him/hi verse.

The result of the case of Dottenheim against V-hworth. which was decided by a Jury yesterday in the superior court is causing no littie comment in commercial and banking circles, and if the judgment of the- jury hold- good it is destined to mak< a very considerable difference in the way in which bank loans arc made. Tho suit was for a house and lot. Dottenheim had mortgaged the property and the bank in making the loan had added on the in terest to the principal and the loan being for five years had divided the total of tho principal and interest into sixty monthly nqjes bearing interest. Jn this way the double interest would appear to have been collected Mr. Dessau, who was acting as pro hac judge, held in his charge that if in tile opinion of the jury usury had been charci d the sale of the property on a fore closure of the mortgage was void. The ’jury bringing in a verdict for the -plaintiff it was plainly their opinion that usury had been charged. \s the banks all over | the stale have probably immense amounts of money out in this way the effect of the veidi. r, if it stands, will be very wide spread.

Washington, June I.—The president is expected to issue a third call for volun teers. At first it was thought that 30,000 men could take Havana. >No>w 125,000 are wanted for that work, 60,000 for the Phil ippines and .30,000 for Porto Rico. The in dications are that the full quota of regu lars, 62.000, will not be enlisted. It is also believed that about 20,000 should be em barked for Santiago. According to the .president’s plan, the second muster of volunteers will be used to fill the regiment under tho first call, and tho 25,000 men not needed for this pur pose will be organized into regiments. FEATHER-WEIGHT MOSQUITOS. Florida Insect So Hungry That He Retains His Thinness After a Nights Feast. Tampa, Fla., June I.—The soldier in camp in or about these parts has a persist- ■ ent and annoying enemy that all the pow- ■er of Europe and the United States can ; not destroy. Th.- enemy I refer to is the Florida mos quito. which ranges in size from that of I a fly to that of a sparrow, and is as busy I as- a bee after the shades of night have stolen over a camp. He is a persistent : fellow, with a long thirst and a heavy ap , petite, and the well-fed servant, of Uncle | Sam is just his size. The Tampa mosquito does not. as a rule. ! carry a brass hand accompaniment when i he gets ready to begin opperations. as does bis northern brother. He touches the sol dier on the quiet and swoops upon him with ceremony. The little fellow can find a sleeping sol dier in the dark as easily as a well trained nose could locate a barrel of asafoetida in an empty cellar. Before he gets ready for a night’s -busi- I ncss he unsheaths a well-sharpened auger, . and as soon as he has located a c ost place, I generally about the nibs, he begins tn boro. The borer is at work but a moment when I it is felt. It feels Uke a needle pressed in the fßsh. and in a moment a well built fist flies ribward. It is at this stage that mosquito turns loose his brass band. He either sees or I feels the fist coming, and he dodges. He Is the artful dodger of thus country. The fist lights and nearly caves in a rib but the mosquito’s flight was just in time. As he goes ho breaks loose with a buzzy accompaniment that sounds like the old ballad, “I’ll return to thee.” The mosquito is not boastful, nor is he sarcastic. He moans just what he buzzes, and as soon as the soldier gets settled he .is back again. Again he is driven away and again he returns until the mosquito has filled up or the soldier covers himself with a bar. One disgusted soldier, after a night of mosquito fighting, said, when questioned as to how ho slept, "Oh, I slept all night. I only fed a regiment of those bugs called mosquitoes. T lost a dozen pints of blood and the blooming things are still In tho I featherweight class. Why they looked starved to death this morning. The fae- z?

Chirman: “Gentlemen, we should follow* the principle laid down in the unabridged edition of my works, Volume IX, Page First Member: “Pardon me, but Samp eon asks merely where the Spanish fleet is. He says the last batch of newspaper clippings we sent him were very contra dictory. The article you marked about the fleet being at Sierra iMalstra, he says, is unlikely because that Is a mountain range.” Chairman: “Os course, it’s a mountain range. I wished to indicate how mislead ing our information was. This brings us 'back to the principle I wished to bring out, that pure inductive reasoning should be applied. Now Cervera wants coal. He will seek a harbor.” Second Member: “ißut we sent the fleet to San Juan on that theory, and nothing came of It.” First Member: “The admiral asks for permission to sail. He thinks he can' find the Spanish ships by looking for them.” Chairman (indignantly): “Looking for them! Is that strategy? Does he* take us for children? Intellect, not a spyglass, should guide naval maneuvers.” Second Member: ‘But what shall we tell ‘him to do? Secretary Long has seen the reports, and they say they have heard nothing. Advices from Madrid are very meagre.” Chairman: “Any more cables cut?” Second Member: “No.” Chairman: “Forbid it. Else we should never learn what the Spaniards are doing. As soon as we hear something from them we may act. The ’best strategical problem must be based on something. We must wait.” First Member: “And Sampsbn’s orders.” Chairman: “Order him to wait orders.” They adjourn. MACON NEWS WEDNESDAY EVENING, JUNE i 1898 UNSTABLE QUICKSANDS. Explanation of One of Nature's Most Curi ous Phenomena. Very little is known hy the general pub lic about quicksand, and that little is usually obtained from novels. Such In formation is usually wrong, being oom posod of a pinch of truth and a handful of fiction. The sensational novel goes even so far as to give to quicksand some attri butes that belong only to living creatures. No ordinary observer could distinguish quicksand from any other If it were dried, am! if he wished to restore its fatal prop erty artificially he would in all probability fail. Suppose he fills a bucket with wa ter. It does not in consequence become mobile. If he drains the off from the bottom, the sand will be fc.Ttnd wedged firmly in place, and if the water be meas ured it will be found to equal 30 per cent of the bulk of the sand, or about 20 per cent of its weight. From this we may in fer that, a cubic foot of dry sand weighs nearly 94 pounds. This for sand is a very light weight, for there an other qualities of sand which weigh a< much as 171 pounds. Quicksand when examined under a microscope will be seen to have rounded corners like river sand, as distinguished from angular or ■‘sharp’’sand, which will pack more solid ly than the other. It is a quicksand that is used in tho hourglass and in the small er egg boiler, partly because of its fineness and partly because it does not obscure the inner surface of the glass by scratching. The lightness of quicksand is the quality which will lead us most surely to the cause of its reputation, and to illustrate this the bucketful of sand must be loaded with water from below and made to overflow very slowly. The upward current will be found to loosen the sand and to raise the surface very slightly, separating and lubri cating tho particles so that they are easily displaced. The bucket now contains quicksand, and this sand from the support, it receives from tho water has its weight or support ing power reduced. In the dry state it weighed nearly 94 pounds, but if weighed in the water it is reduced to pounds, and its mobility prevents any animal from walking on it. The mixture of sand and water weighs quite 112 pounds per cubic foot, or nearly twice the weight of a man, but it is toothick to swim in, and the per son engulfed would soon lie too exhausted to escape. He would probably die of suf focation 11 not drowned by an advance tide, for quicksands are found mostly within the influences of tides. He would not be swallowed by the quicksand be cause it is so much heavier than his body. Quicksands require in all cases an up ward current which is not quick enough to form what is called a spring or foun tain. It may be formed in two ways. In tidal rivers and'on the shores of tidal seas tho rising tide may saturate a porous stratum of ground below high water mark, and when the tide falls the return current is established through the same porous (sandy) ground with sufficient velocity to loosen the sand as above described. This sand as soon as tho rising tide reverses the current ceases to be “quick.” The other case is that when a slow current of fresh water finds an exit through a surface of sand above or below water. This is a per manent quicksand. Any sand and almost any material might have the quality of quicksand imparted to it by means of a suitable current. Coal is separated from shale in an up current of water so regulated that the coal is made to float while the shale falls to the bottom, and heavy iron tools have been carried to the surface by the sudden discharge of artesian wells. Quicksands that are encountered during the sinking of wells and foundations are all due to the influx of water, when the work gets be low “spring level,” or the level of water in tho ground. The sand, being deprived of the support of the excavated part, is pushed from behind by the water current flowing in from all sides.—lnvention.

In those days when to speak of a man as a gentle,man was to say tliat lie was for tunately distinguished by his birth as be ing above and, as it were, of a race apart from the masses of the population, a gen tleman was outwardly distinguished by his clothes, which differed in many ways besides their splendor from those affected by ‘lm canaille. At that period the occu pation peculiar to geiitlemen was tho con .lui-t. <ff the government, but now when gentlemen are fotiud in every walk of life ami the word implies simply t)<e posses sion of estimable inward qualities we all dress pretty much alike. V.’hcn the sword indicate;! the man's rank, he might choose his colors ami the fashion of his clothes to suit hirn.-vif, but.it pri sent, when the dress: of a man conveys nothing of his station in Hie beyond tne iiidiemions of material prosperity, uniformity and the. avoidance of display are songiif. Apart from the < ullcomont of class dis tinctions in dress, which it. took centuries to comjHiss, no greater change has come over this matter of cloches than one which has been aceomplisiied within the memory of man. We may reprove the tendency of our men of leisure to copy rather than emulate our English brethren in dress and deportment, but it is Undoubtedly to them we owe our love for outdoor sports, and it is this, spreading marvelously even within the past few years, which has improved the breed of men and changed the character of their clothes. The dandy no longer trips in dainty shoes and shuns exertion, but is proud of his square shoulders and deep cliest. and his dress is distinguished not more by its neatness and accuracy of detail than by its simplicity, comfort and ser\ iceability. The manliness which is the keynote of this change finds no greater expression than in the avoidance of all pretense, sham and vain show and in the perfect fitness of the clothes of a gentleman of taste. In spite of the abandonment of arbitrary class distinction in apparel, it is by no means difficult to recognize a gentleman as such by his clothes. Quite apart from the neat ness and avoidance of any conspicuous ness, which it should be unnecessary to mention, is the absolute simplicity and reality of everything he has on and its fit ness for the occupation in hand. This fit ness is the essence of good form in clothes, and as it has its seat in the most rigid common sense it is singular that it is in this that gaucheries should most frequent ly occur.—American Wool and Cotton Re-, porter. A Loaded Dog. That Ohio dog who swallowed five sticks of dynamite and was immediately after ward given the freedom of the town is still lording it over his native heath, so to speak. That he is a happy dog there can be no doubt. It isn't given to the canine mind to distinguish between high and low explosives, and a dog who is loaded to the brim with the most deadly combustibles may still be recklessly happy. Certainly this dog had no notion of crossing the Styx. Any dog should be happy who can freely walk into the finest dining room in town and find the family rapidly though re spectfully withdrawing before him, leav ing him to enjoy the good things of the table. Os course the denouement of the-dog tragedy is anxiously awaited by the nerv ous townspeople. Perjiaps they are in hopes that some wandering tramp will kick the dog in fatal ignorance of the fact that he is loaded. In the meantime, while they are breathlessly waiting for the cli max, they want it generally understood that they have a dog on hand that they would be glad to giveaway to some person who will treat him kindly. He is a nice dog, and there is a good deal more in him than many people vvuuld imagine. He is a dog that can’t help but rise in the world. He is a dog from whom at any time you may expect to hear a good report I—Cleve land Plain Dealer. AN OPEN LETTER To MOTHERS.
