thusiastic over this matter than ever, and

City to Girard.
CITY POLITICS.
THE QUESTION OF NOMINATIONS BY PRI
MARY ELECTION DISCUSSED.
No objection has yet been urged to the
proposition to nominate candidates for
city offices by primary election.
The people seem to be unanimously. in
favor of primaries, and the only question
appears to be the method of ordering the
primary. There is no city executive com
mittee, and as the chairman of the county
executive committee does not live in Col
umbus, he does not think it is his duty to
call a meeting of the committee to take
a hand in city politics.
“The chairman of the executive com
mittee for the county is right,” said a well
informed gentleman yesterday, “as he does
not live in the city.”
“I think, however,” he continued, “that
it is the business of the town members of
the committee to take this matter in hand.
The idea is this: Each district in the
county has its own committeeman, who
represent the white Democrats of his dis
trict. This committeeman has the power
and right to call a meeting of the people
of his own district to give an expression
of their views on any question that may
arise. This being the case, the mem
bers of the town district have
full power to get together
and bring the question of primaries di
rectly before the people. The town mem
bers, I think, could order the primary, if
they saw fit, and such action on their part
would be regular and binding on the white
Democrats of Columbus. But. I think,
the better plan would be for the secretary
of the committee, who resides in the city,
to call a meeting of the town members of
the committee. This meeting could call a
mass meeting of citizens to take action on
the question. So much interest is felt in
this matter that the meeting would cer
tainly be a large and representative one,
sud its action could not fail to be satisfac
tory to a large majority of the party.
It has been whispered about for some
days that Alderman Foley would not be a
candidate for re-election in the fourth
ward, as he contemplated being in the
race for Mayor next time. A new law in
Georgia provides that an Alderman can
not be elected to another city office during
his term as alderman, and that he cannot
resign one position to run for another in
the city government. Alderman Foley has
quieted this talk to some extent by saying
that he would be a candidate for re-elec
tion in the fourth ward.
There is a good deal of quiet talk going
on about the possibility of the prohibition
issue being brought into the campaign.
Neither side seems anxious to fdrce the
issue, but they are watching each other.
There is no doubt about that. Conserva
tive men hold the opinion that the issue
will not be raised, but admit that it is
among the possibilities.
Real Estate.—TJje following trans
fers of real estate have been recorded in
the office of Clerk Pond during the past
week:
F. D. Peabody to* E. M. Oliver, lot on
Rose Hill, for $1,200.
E. M. Oliver to F. D. Peabody, lot in
the Annex, for $75.

Families Believed of Embarrassing In
cumbrances—Some Things Worth Know
ing About Dogs and Other Animals.
An interview with n Specialist.
Ill the Sommer season, wben so many
families shnt np their city residences
and go to the seaside or country, the
disposition to be made of the family pet,
be it dog, cat or bird, is often a most
embarrassing question. It is often a
nuisance to take it along. Humanity de
mands that if left behind it most be
properly cared for. The nnmerons fanci
ers, dealers and doctors of domestic pets
in this city fully appreciate this situa
tion of affairs, and in summer notify the
public by signs on their establishments
that with them can be found “summer
■board for domestic pets.”
A LARGE BUSINESS.
“The business is quite an extensive
one,” said a keeper of one of these “pet
hotels,” “yet it is not as great as we
would like it to be. 1 think that the
keeping of a house cat or dog is getting
less and less popular with people in or
dinary circumstances. The wealthy
people keep them because they have the
room and servants to look after them.
The wealthy, though, generally own
their country or beach places and send
their pets there, so we get very few
boarders from them.
“While people in ordinary circum
stances are giving np dogs and cats as
house pets they are growing fonder and
fonder of song birds. Dealers who take
birds to board are now doing a rushing
business! People of moderate means
when they leave town generally go to
hotels where they would not be allowed
to take tbeir pets, so it is from them we
get most of our boarders. One Sixth av
enue dealer is boarding nearly one hun
dred canaries and many parrots and
mocking birds. Fifty cents a week is
the charge for small birds and seventy-
five cents for parrots. We charge $10 a
month for a dog’s board, and $7 a month
for cats.
“People who value their domestic pets
should be very careful how they care
for them during Jhe summer. Give
your birds plenty of rape seed, and as
little large seed as possible. Slip a piece
of green stuff between the bars of the
page occasionally. Also give them a bit
of apple once a day. Apple is a natural
tonic to birds. Keep yonr cats indoors
as much as possible, and brush their
coats thoroughly every day. Feed them
lightly, giving them fish and milk dishes,
but no meat.
HOW TO CARE FOR DOG9.
“There is not one owner of a dog in
ten who knows how to care for the ani
mal. The dog should be kept as quiet
as possible throughout the heat of the
day, but he should not be chained or
worried with restraint. He should be
fed lightly and only twice a day, and
change should be made in his food fre
quently. Don’t give him meat. Give
him a bone to chew once in a while.
For staple food give him milk dishes and
vegetables. A great many people will
tell you a dog won’t eat vegetables. If
a dog turns away from vegetables the
first time take them away at once. Give
him a fresh supply at the next meal. He
will be hungry enough to eat them then,
and soon will take to them as naturally
as to meat.
“Dogs shonld frequently be washed in
cold water containing a Little alcohoL
Dse common yellow soap. If you must
muzzle your dog in summer, don’t keep
him without a muzzle all the rest of the
year. Put it on him for a half hour or
so every day, and he will get so used to
it that when he has to wear it steadily
it won’t worry him. If people would do
this for their pets there would be fewer
so called mad dogs. Dogs are very like
ly to have a rush of blood to the head.
That gives them a running fit. They
froth at the mouth and people think
they are mad. I never saw a mad dog,
and I have been handling dogs for fifty
years. When a dog gets one of these
running fits he is harmless, and if his
head is dncked into a pail of cold water
he will quickly come around.”
“At this time,” said a South Fifth
aveuue bird fancier, “not one quarter of
the birds and animals here are mine. Most
of them are boarders. There are, be
sides the canaries, finches, thrushes,
mocking birds, macaws, parrots, and in
that row of strong wire cages are cats of
valuable strains, and back farther 1 have
the monkeys, while 1 keep the dogs in
the basement and in kennels in the
yard.”
The reporter walked into the yard and
found kenneled there comfortably a St.
Bernard, several fox terriers, pugs and
black and tans, and there were probably
twenty more in the basement. The
fancier said that himself and his wife
and grown daughter had their nands full
in caring for, feeding and doctoring the
menagerie in the summer, but as regu
lar custom was light he found it so
profitable that from year to year he in
creased his facilities. He charges for
birds from 25 to 50 cents a week, for
cats $2. and for dogs and monkeys from
$1 to $5 a week.
“That St. Bernard over there.” said
the fancier, “will eat as much as you or
L and then he must be cleaned and
washed and exercised occasionally.”—
New York Times.
What the World Owen to Crank*.
It was to the courage and persever
ance of a crank that we owe the discov
ery of this great hemisphere. It was a
crank that gave us the printing press,
the cotton loom, the locomotive, the tel
egraph. All the great inventors from
Archimedes to Edison have been cranks,
all the great philosophers from Plato to
Herbert Spencer, all the reformers from
Lycurgus to Lady Habberton, all the
great preachers from Peter the Hermit
to Henry Ward Beecher, all the heroes
who left tbeir plows standing in the fur
row while they went to fight for liberty
under Washington.—Kate Held’s Wash-
Some Presidents* Tvooien.
Some inen are born for trousers, oth
ers achieve trousers and others have
trousers thrust upon them. Who that
ever saw President Arthur can forget
the beautiful folds of his trousers?
Neither large nor small, with no bag
ging at the knee, but falling gracefully
upon his shoe they were indeed beautiful
to behold. Such trousers were not sim
ply due to the tailor’s art. They showed
his natural affinity for trousers, and
while the experiment might have been
attended with danger, there is, neverthe
less, a strong probability that Mr. Ar
thur would have made a pair of Bowery
“hand-me-downs” look quite respectable.
Of all the presidents of modern times he
was the best clothed as to his nether
garments.
His great predecessor, Gen. Garfield,
achieved trousers. His tailor was good,
the cloth was in good taste, but the
wearer gave little attention to the mat
ter, and even appeared in public once in
trousers frayed at the heeL Hayes’
trousers were barely respectable, while
Gen. Grant was utterly indifferent to
his. Trousers were thrust upon him.
He really had no taste for them.
President Harrison’s trousers axe re
spectable and good always, but they are
full of wrinkles and of so conservative
a color as to be nonentities in the trouser
world, and President Cleveland's legs
were incased in broadcloth of a stiffness
and newness of appearance that showed
a woeful subordination of the wearer' to
the tender mercies of the tailor. This
is a fatal mistake. A man’s trousers
should show the combined thought of
the wearer and the tailor. Neither can
accomplish them successfully alone.—
Cor. New York Times.
Mammies and Mohammedans.
One night 1 visited the Metropolitan
Museum of Art for the purpose of exam
ining some of the antiques exhibited
there, and i took a look at the mummied
cats, in which my little son, who was
with me, is especially interested. Very
solemn and ghastly are the swathed and
silent tabbies, who perhaps gamboled
around the feet of Moses and of Pha
raoh’s daughter, and it struck me in
looking at them that the Egyptians of
3,000 years ago were a little ahead of the
New York of today in their devotion to
birds and quadrupeds.
Something of this veneration for the
brute creation has been transmitted to
the Mohammedan of the east, who per
mits neither cats nor dogs to he slain,
but provides meals and quarters for
them. A learned pundit of that persua
sion once expressed to the late S. S. Cox,
when minister to Turkey, his surprise
that a Society for the Prevention of Cru
elty to Animals should be jjeeded in a
Christian country. Otfr brilliant “Sun
set” "was not usually at a loss for words
either to conceal or express an Idea, but
on this occasion he confessed that he
was routed by the unspeakable Turk,
and had to take refuge in the assertion
that this was the work of the Blavatsky
sect of Buddhists. It is just possible
that the gentle Tnrk believed him, but
Mr. Cox was always of the opinion that
he did not.—New York Letter.
Selling Tobacco In Danville.
It is an interesting sight to Bee the
hundreds of covered tobacco wagons
come to market. Large ware houses are
ready to offer every inducement to farm
ers to sell their load. Driveways lead
to the great floors where the load is as
sorted in piles according to grade, hav
ing been weighed first while on the
truck. Each pile is tagged with the
name of the owner and the weight,
with a place for the buyer’s name and
price. Many farmers remain over night,
for they arrive at all hours of the day
and night. Free stables and other ordi
nary comforts are provided.
There are ten ware houses in Danville,
N. C. They are divided into two series
of five each, and public sales are con
ducted in two at the same time. Under
the direction of the Tobacco Exchange
the order of sales is arranged. Placards
are posted at different points, “First sale
at Neal’s.” “Second sale at Acree’s,” and
so on. each ware house taking its assigned
turn until all five have sold out—first to
day, the last to-morrow. Each ware
house has its own auctioneer, clerks,
and most of the firms buying having
two sets of buyers to attend on the two
circuits.—Cor. Washington Post.
Compressed Air Torpedo.
Still another torpedo, this one the in
vention of an Austrian count, Buona-
corsi by name, has made its appearance
in the European naval and military
world. According to official and private
reports of the trials of this instrument
they were eminently successful, giving
results superior even to those obtained
from the Whitehead. The motive power
is compressed air. acting directly from a
reservoir upon the propeller without any
assistance or intervention from machin
ery- The propulsion is effected by twin
screws working inversely and giving a
velocity greater and more continuous, it
is contended, than any obtained in other
torpedoes. One remarkable feature of
this invention is the faculty of auto
matic guidance, which enables it to
avoid protective nets and shields, and to
dive any distance before rising to give
its blow.—Exchange.
Tl.e Time to Gather Flowers.
Do not gather flowers while the sun is
shining upon them, but choose instead
the early morning, or the hour after the
sun has gone down. Avoid pulling or
tearing from the plant: cut with sharp
scissors or a knife, and in the case of
varieties having a large stalk or stem
rub a little dirt over the wound. Al
ways leave as long a stem as possible,
not to interfere with other buds or blos
soms.—John Richards in Jenness-Miller
Magazine.
It is not generally known that a single
mouse turned loose in a grocery window
will catch more flies in a single evening
than fly paper catches all day, and be
sides, he eats them, and don’t leave them
lying around loose. Don’t grudge the
mouse his little mischief: be is a good
fly and roach exterminator.

Four women, all told
The first told how much easier it was to wash with Pearline.
She saved half her labor, and the work was better done.
The second told how much longer the clothes lasted, since
she’d used Pearline. The rubbing that wore them out wasn't
necessary.
The next told how many things she did with it; she
washed the kitchen floor, or the finest china—the most deli
cate lace, or the coarsest fabric. Whatever she did with it.
she saved money by it.
The fourth told of the harmlessness of Pearline. She
had used it for ten years, and she knew nothing that was
washable could be hurt by it.
These are only four out of millions who use Pearline, but
the others say the same things and more. Try it y|fcself
then you can tell about it.
■ Peddlers and some unscrupulous grocers will tell you “ this is
as good as” or “the same as Pearline.” IT’S FALSE

London, October 4.—Upon the reas
sembling of the court at Tipperary this
morning Mr. Redmond, of counsel for
Dillon and O’Brien, asked that an adjourn
ment be taken until Tuesday in the case

important engagement which demanded
their attention on Monday. Mr. Ronan,
prosecuter for the crown, opposed any de
lay in the proceedings. He charged the
defendants with creating every possible
obstacle to prolong the case. Redmond

ney was ill, and that it was impossible for
him to attend the trial at present. The
presiding Magistrate announced the court
wonld adjourn until the physician who
