HOKE’S BIRTHDAY.
From Savannah Press.
Yesterday—September 2nd. —was
Hoke Smith’s birthday.
It must have been a very glad and
happy anniversary for the senator.
The day before he had seen rati
fied at a convention of fellow Geor
gians his practically unanimous se
lection as the standard bearer of
Democracy of the State, and the an
niversary of the day of his birth wit
nessed the selection by those same
Democrats of a co-worker who will
be able with him in Washington to
carry out fully the progressive ideas
of the great party.
The senator on his natal day had
the pleasure of returning to the Cap
itol confident of the success of his
adherents in this State, and he had
not long been in Washington before
there came the news of the selection
of one of the most progressive and
active of the Democrats of Georgia
to serve with him as a member of
the great deliberative body on the
Potomac.
But this was not all the news that
came to the senator upon this happy
occasion. It was stated from an
authoritative source in Washington
yesterday that Woodrow Wilson,
the President, who has been so close
to the people since his inauguration,
has consented to accept another
nomination at the hands of the
Democrats of the country. This no
doubt was cheering news to the senior
senator from Georgia. The admin
istration has had no stronger or
more enthusiastic friend than Hoke
Smith.
All-in-all we imagine the senator
rather enjoyed his birthday.
Mrs. S. C. Dunlap and Mrs. M. M.
Riley have gone to Commerce to
visit Mr. and Mrs. W. Y. Harber.
For Gu/fars, Banjos, Mando/ins,
<iolins, Autoharps, and Harps, see
Lederer, the Jeweler. He. carries a
complete line of these. Also all j
kinds of findings which belong to
the above instruments. |

Oflical news from the war
The Germans have discovered a
new kind of powder and they went
to try it out aud they got 50 billie
goats and took them all out on a
side of a hill and got a mile off and
cominced to fire on them with the
new powder. They sent out sharp
shootersand all was in warfare, and
after they had blazed away about
a hour they went over to see bow
many they had killed, and after
they had got there they counted 51,
they hadn't killed any. but they had
scared them so that one had bad a
kid.
The Grand stand fell again last Fri
day afternoon and boomed up some
of the occapants; the grand stand
had fallen once before, and they had
it fixed up again, and last Friday it
fell again; there was a big crowd,
some of them watching the game,
most watching one of the players do
some of the funniest tricks that he
knew, when all of a suden the grand
stand fell, throwing one fellow up
against a tree and knocking the
breath out of him and breaking Pit
man Carters arm and spraining
Lewis Whitehead arm and bum
ming up some more not as bad. We
guess that they will not put it up
again. «
Allen Bros, of this City Last Sat
urday held.? a washing machine
dimonstration on the street that
goes right in front of their store
some of the people of this town said
that the machine was the best that
they ever did see; they showed the
people how it worked and all about
the parts of it and the people went
away very pleased.
Last Friday another good man
passed away. It was Chief Richard
son, the Chief of Police of this City.
The funeral was held at the first
Methidest church here in thist City;
a lot of Mr. Richardson, friends
attended; the Chief had been down
and up for a long time untill he
passed away at his homeon Broad St.
When the last campaign was go
ing on Doc. Newton and Mr. Frank
Conner were going out canvassing,
and it seemed that Tadmoore Dis
trict was where this happened. Mr.
('oner and Doc. were out canvasing
and Doc. started in the morning,
and Mr. Conner was to come in the
evening, well it,happened to be Mr.
Coner was on his rout, and every
place that he had been to Doc. had
been there be fore hand., after
awhile he came to a pretty little
girl and he stoped and gave her
some candy and asked her if Doc.
had give her any and she said yes;
and then he gave her a nicle and
asked her if Doc had give her one
and she said yes; and he kissed her
and asked her if Doc had ki— ed her
and she said yes and he kissed Ma
too. Doc is a sly one.
Col. Bill Sloan had a man that
owed him and he kept writing him
for many months, and he dident
pay. So he wrote him that he must
pay are he would su him. So the
man wrote back there aire no mon
ey: if Seal skin was selling at 35
cents a car load i couldent buy the
sand papered end of a rats tail so
brother please write again. And so
Billie is still waitin.
There is a negro Sunday school
out on the SouthSlde where the lit
tle Rastuses and Gawdge Washing
tons are being brought up to appre
ciate the treasure trove of the Scrip
tures, says the Chicago Herald. The
teacher was calling upon her little
‘‘scholars” for Bible verses and, as
was natural, each child tried to ac
quit himself with as little effort as
possible.
“Well, Sammy let us have your
verse,” said the teacher.
Sammy screwed up his face and
repeated that very brief verse of the
Bible, “Jesus wept.”
“Now Rastus,” the teacher went
on turning to the next youngster,
“what verse of the Bible canyon
give?”
Rastus squirmed as if he had
been sitting on a hot stove. Evi
dently his predecessor had stolen
thunder. But a quick decision
must be made. He rose to the oc- ’
casion. Fate had cheated him out i
of “Jesus wapt.” So he looked up
at the teacher and said: “He sho
did.”
