Plan to Pool tho Conductor Waa Fru.tralcd. WUun Willie's mother ami aunt de cided to take him Houtli with thorn, of course it was only sfter great fore thought on their part. "I don’t believo we’d have to pay,” ssid Aunt Sarah. “Willie looks to be flve or under, at lenst not a day older, and I'm suro we could squeeze him through." “But if he know we wore lying about his agu, saying ho is flve when he is really' six, do you think he would be still? He’s a manly little fellow, yon know, and likes people to think ho is seven or eight. And don’t yon think it would be setting him a bad example to flb about him anyway?" Aunt Sarah thought awhile and thou said suddenly: "I have it Kstharine; we’ll just tell Willie ho had no birth day this year, therefore ho isn’t quite flve. That will do, and Willie won’t know we are fibbing about him, for he doesn’t know how old he is himself without our telling him.” • “All right,” acquiesced Willie's mother, “we’ll do that, and I shall in form the child that ho has had no birthday this year." Preparations were made for the trip, and while waiting for tho carriage Willie's mother called him to her and said: "Willie, I want to tell yon that you have had no birthday this year." Willie looked up and his eyes opened wide. Thou his mother asked, “How old does that make yon, Wil lie?” Willie thought a minute. “Not quite flve, mamma," he answered. When the oonduotor reached their seats end was handed two full-fare tickets he looked along at tho little boy sitting next the aisle. "How old is the child, madam?" he asked. "Not quite flve," the mother an swered, sliding along the seat and squeezing her son into oven a smaller apaoe. The conductor was not quito satis fied. Looking down at Willie and patting his onrly brown Load, he asked, "How old. are you, my little man?" "Well,” spoke up Willie, “if I’d a-had a birthday this year I'd be six, bnt as I haven't I ain't quite flve." An aoro of performance is worth a whole world of promiso.—Howell.

Prejudice is an oqnivoon! term, and may as well mean right opinions taken upon truat, and deeply rooted in the mind, as false and absurd opinions so derived and grown into it.

An Incident of tlie Wsr. Many are the humors of the war. Here is one of thorn: Wheu the oruiser Topeka was brought across the ocean her offleert had a merry time with the crew. The vessel was built for Portu gal, and her name, when our Govern ment purchased her, was the Diogenes. On the third day out from Liverpool her officers deoided to mount a few guns, but when the order was issued there was loud grumbling among the crew. Having notioed the prevailing mutinous spirit, thelieutouant in com mand had the troublesome men called before him and asked what was wrong. The leading Bee-lawyer of the party stepped forward and mado the follow ing brief and pithy spoooh: “When we shipped on this 'ere wessei, sir, she was iu a British yard, an' we thort she was British from stem to stern. But the anohor’e no more'n h'isted an' we're no more’n under way 'an ye calls *er the Diognoees an' runs hup the Brazilian flag. That alone was sus picious. We'e two days out an’ ye runs hup the American flag an' calls 'er the Tapiooa. We think ye're nothin’ but a bloomin'pirate." Great is the danger of having a logical mind on board ship. Watchmaker*' Minns. A highly interesting story is told to aooouut for the faot tluit almost every wooden olook in Amerioa lias its hands painted to indioate the hour of eight sen minutes past eight. It is related that most suoh watehmakors' signs were originally made liyono mau, who was at first in the habit of painting the hands to indioate any old or young hour that struak his fauoy when ho asue to that part of the job. But wheu President Linooln was assassin ated he conceived tho idea of com- tnemorating tho event by recording the hour and minute theruof upon all bis wooden timepieces, u custom ever since perpetuatod. There is some thing striking and dramatio about this notion of time standing still forever after an event of such tragic signifi cance. There iB no doubt about the tact that nearly all tho wooden clooks do indicate tho hour of oighteen min utos past oight—you can see that for yourself. But if the olockmaker thought be was thereby recordiug the hour of the assassiuation his intelli gence was as woodon as his wares, for President Lincoln wbb shot not at eighteen minutes past eight, but at about fifteen minutes past ten.—Now York Evening Post. The average person wears nearly fourteen pounds of clothing. Hunator Pfeflfar't Potato**. Senator Pfeifer is fond of relating the story of how he once doped the managers of a Kansas county fair, “On examination of the sweet pota toes exhibited,” he says, “I saw that the size of the speoimons was nothing to brag of, and I sent out to a grooery store and puroliased a bushel of fine ones; took the small ones out for home use, carried the rest to the fair grounds, entered them in my own name and drew the premium for the best speoimen of sweet potatoes grown in Wilson County."—Pittsburg Dis patch. “The war with Spain demonstrated one thing very thoroughly as far as it wont,” remarked a Boldier who wears two medals for marksmanship to a Washington Stnr reporter, "and that is that marksmauship, as generally understood, is not nooesnary; that tho soldier who has had no practico at rille ranges makes as effective a sol dier as one who hns devoted years to targot practico at the rifle ranges. I don't want to be unddtstood as saying that a soldier can be mnoh of a suc cess who does not knw how to handle his rifle, for it is absolutely neoessary that be knowB bow to shoot. For ef fective service it is not necessary, however, that he should be specially skilled iu marksmanship; that is, that he can place bullet after bullet in a space the size of a targot ten inches in diameter. There is no such restric tions in actual warfare. It is only sel dom that there is any fancy shooting to ho done, and in overy case tho tar got which is the objective point is a man. Tons and tons of ammunition have been fired by the various regi- meuts of the Natiounl Guard of the States during the past ten years, un der tho idea that skilled marksman ship, by its results iu actual warfare, would repay the enormous oxpense of the practico, and the idea was en couraged that tho best marksman was the best soldier. Tho elfect of this was bad, in that it discouraged many young men who were not specially skillful in hitting the tnrgets from re maining in the guard. When the time for aotual service arrived i| was surprising how fowof the oraok marks men of the National Guard ontored. All kinds of engagomoutB kept thorn from going in. Many of them were good, but others trivial. Oue of tho results was that mauy regiments en tered the serviue without any of the most skilled marksmen and others with but few. The fortunes of war provouted but a few regiments from doing tho actual shooting that was necessary, but those that did drnw prizes and get into aotunl service did aB well and rendered as effective ser- i as if they had bad their best rifle gallery shooters with them.” In th. Wroni Plac*. A characteristic story of General Scott is told in connection with the sword presented to him by the State of Louisiana, through the Legislature, at the close of the Mexican War. He was accosted one day by a man who said: “General Soott, I had the honor of doing most of the work on the sword presented to yon by the State of Louisiana. I should like to ask if it was juBt as you would have ahoBen.” “It’s a very lino sword, sir, a very fine sword, indeed,” said the general. "I am proud to have it. There is only one thing I should havs pre ferred different. The inscription should have been on the blade, sir. The Hcabbsrd may bo taken from us, but the sword, noverl" Tho sword cost about flve hundred dollars, the prinoipal expense being in the scabbord, which was richly obasod and ornamented.—Youth’s Companion. All About CImih Kick*. Tho dam’s eggs are carried by the mother on her gills. Wheu there are Ash in the water with them, the mother clams discharge the eggs, whiah soon hatch, but if there are no flsh they carry the eggs until they decay. The reason of this strange behavior is this: When the eggs are set free in the water, they soon hatch, and the little ones swim about until they find some flsh to which to attach themselves. They live for a timo on the muous of the flsh and then drop oil, sink to the bottom and form burrows for them selves. This curious semiparasitio life iB no doubt a reversion to tho habit of some ancient ancestor.—Popular Sci- euuo Monthly. A Submerged Island. A submerged island has been found 1000 miles due wost from Gibraltar, which offers a curious problem for geographers. It was discovered by tho Prinoe of Mouaco, and will soou be placed on the charts issued by the Hydrographio Office at Washington. The sunken island was discovered quite by acoideut by the Prince, while making soundings from his yacht, Princess Alice, aud tho formation was accordingly named after the yacht. The island is supposed to have been lit one time a huge volcano. Its shape, whioh has been determinld by careful soundings, is rnnch tho same as that of a huge cooked bat. The island is iu no danger of interfering in the least with navigation, Binoe its highest point is fourteen fathoms below the level of the sea.—Washington News. A Ilorsele** Sleigh. An ndaptationjof the Bollee horseless carriage, driven by a gasoline engine, to winter use, iB described in the Sci entific American. Doctor Casgrain, of Quebec, is the aoutxivor of the new form of vehicle. In place of tho pneu matic tired wheels of the ordinary Uolleo carriage he substitutes Hteel runners for the forepart of the carriage, aud a driving-wheel, whose rim is studdod with steel points, for the rear part. The steering apparatus sots upon the forward runners. The gaso line reservoir,containing seven quarts, suffices for a run of fifty miles. A Phllo.oph.r*. Opinion. The Millerites had appointed a cer tain day for the end of world. On that day Mr. Emerson waB quietly walking in Boston, and was met by a friend, who asked, “Do you known, Mr. Emerson, that they say the world is to lie done with at two o'clook this after noon?” Emerson thought for a moment, and then replied, bb u philosopher should, "Wa can do very well without it." The l'arann uiul the Prince. It was an Ayrshire parson, and into tho customary prayer for the royalties he had introduced a feeling reference to the accideut whioh htd befallen the Prince of Wales. “And now, brethren,” continued the unwitting clerio, “wo will join in singing hymn No. so-and-so, ‘Courage, Brother, Do Not Stumblo.’" The congregation saw the joke, though the minister did not.—Glasgow News. An Euonnou* Belt. A leather belt, eighty inches wide and 165 feet long, was recently made in America for an electric light com pany.

The most spledid military speotaola ever witnessed on the parade grounds of Camp Nortben was presented Sun day in the grand review of the Third Georgia regimont by Colonel Candler. It was Colonel Candler's last weekly review and inspection of the magnifl- oent body of men who have for four months been under his command. The headquarters of the Seventh army corps, with General F.V. Greene in command, iu the absence of General Fitzbngh Lee, arrived in Savannah Snuday morning, followed by the Sec ond Louisiana and First Texas regi ments. The two regiments nnloaded their stuff at once, and in a short time were well established in camp on Dale svenuo. Gonoral Greene and his staff officers have taken up their headquar ters at the DeSoto hotel. Colonel James E. Brown, state li brarian, makes some suggestions of ospeciai interest to lawyers in his annual report. Ho advocates the re printing by tho state of the earlier volumes of the Georgia Reports. The ultimate life of a copyright is forty- two years. Colonel Brown says that the copyright has expired on the first twonty volumes and iu the course of a few years the copyright will expire on all the reports up to the sixty-sixth, i From that volume on the reports are I copyrighted by the state.

From the taxpayer's standpoint, probably the most important measure that will come before the present leg islature is the tax reform bill which will lie introduced by the speaker of the liouso, Mr. John D. Little. Its object will be to put on the digest all taxable property which does not ap pear there, and to secure a fair valua tion for all property returned. This is a task which lias engaged the ablest minds iu this utid other states, but so far no one lias presented a well-digest ed plan to the Georgia . legislature. Thu equalization hill passed seven years ago was a failure, and was re pealed by the next legislature. Other ' bills havo been introduced from time i to time, but they have died of their owu imperfections. Hon. J. M. Torrell,attorney general of the state, has completed hiH annual roport to the governor. In this paper the attorney goueral reviews the work of bis office for the past year, and he joins with state librarian, Col. Brown, in recommending that the state re publish the early volumes of the Geor gia reports so that they may be planed within reuoh of every lawyer. Tho attorney general advises that tlie rail road commission law be bo amended that the commission shall have power to compel a railway to issue bills of lading over connecting lines. He also recommends that the law be so amond- ed as to fix the venue of all suits brought by dirootlou of the railroad ! commission for violations of its orders j requiring tlie erection of depots in tho county where tlie order is to be exe cuted.
