V. ‘ last Wednesday night, is still at large. The liberal reward Offered by Warden Barbre has thus far foiled to bring • '•$ \ Colbert back to the fold. There Is something mysterious in the disappearance of this negro. As stated In The Herald of Thursday, the negro had served all hut forty-two days of a tea-year sentence. He had for a long time been a trusty, and the warden and guards had as much con fidence In him as was reposed In any man on the gang. He had never given the least trouble. On this account, It Is the opinion of Warden Barbre that Colbert became Involved In some sort of trouble which caused him to fdar that he would be rearrested. A search for the missing convict Is still being made, but each day of hla continued liberty decreases the chances at his capture, Making on my farmf today.

But “no register, no vote.” No mat ter how good your Intentions may be, you will not be allowed to deposit your ballot In the box on primary day unless the formality of personal regis tration has been gone through with. And, as The Herald reminded Its readers a few days ago, the time In which this Important matter may be attended tet is now short Saturday, the 10th Inst., will be the last day during which the registration book will remain open. There must be an Interval of ten days between the day of election and the day of closing the registration book. And as the pri mary will occur on the 92nd last., the book will have to be closed on the 10th. Special to The Herald. Savannah, Ga„ March 6. — Ogle thorpe lodge, No.t 1, I. O. O. F., last night celebrated its sixty-fourth .birth day. This lodge enjoys the distinc tion of being the oldest Odd Fellows’ lodge in the state, and besides has the oldest member of all the lodges In Georgia. James Clemence has been a member of the order for forty-five years.. He' was the guest of honor last night t Govern Yourself. Men and women often say they can’t govern themselves^ That is simply ad mitting they have defects of character which are their masters. They ought to make effort and see if they are not mistaken. The worst effects of lack of self control are ou the health. It al lows every kind of bad habit in eat ing. drinking, dressing and sleeping to gain possession of the person, and the result is a'weak lustead of a strong character.—Home Notes. 6 Per Cent. THOS.

An Old Courtship Onntnm That Still Prevails la Poland, A quaint old superstition is to this dny held In Poland to the effect that two lighted candles set afloat on the river by two lovers will by their con- 1 duct foretell If the course of true lovo will run smooth or otherwise. The “lovers’ candles" are launched at a very pretty water fete that takes place every summer on that part of the Vistula which runs through Poland. It commences at sunset. The river Is thronged with a procession of little boats containing masked ladles and gentlemen. Each person carries two wreaths and two candles, the latter representing the person carrying them and the'object'df his or her affections. They are lighted, fixed druily In the center of the wreaths and laid side by side In the water. Should they boat down the river close together it Is a sign that their lives should be united. Should they drift away from each oth er It Is a sign that the lovers will Tie parted, and should thy only drift asunder for a little way and farther on come together again It Is a sign that the loved ones will only be parted for a time and all come right In the end. There Is much method and order about the arrangement of this procession. The boats glide along in rows, so many abreast, and after the first row have proved their wreaths they move away to the sides and the others come for ward in succession. The river Is well. Illuminated, and a large concourse of people assembles to watch the pro ceedings. The scene is a charming one and reminds oue more of fairyland than of anything else. CATCHING TURTLES.

Come and see me. C. M. CLARK, 24-lmo \ Agent Ancient Dresn Still Worn. In tbo little town of Munsiedel, In Bavaria, there exists one of the most curious charitable foundations iu the world. One of the burghers. Christo pher Wannyr, died in 1451 and left his fortune for the. establishment of a home for aged poor. He attached, how ever, the condition that every old man who was taken In should wear his beard and the same <^ut of clothes and cap as he himself used to wear; con sequently the ancient pensioners are still to be Seen wandering about the streets of Munsiedel In the costumes of the fifteenth century. Method* Uaed hr the FUhermea off ^he Tropic*. Turtles are, always captured at night and usually on moonlight ones. This Is the time they go on the shore to lay their eggs. They select a smooth, sandy beach, dig holes in the sand, de posit their eggs there and leave them to be hatched by the heat of the sand. When the turtles are on shore for this purpose hunters come upon them, and they are easily overtaken, for turtles are slow movers. The hunters have not a very strenuous undertaking. All that is necessary to be done Is to turn the turtles on their backs and leave them until the next day, when they are removed. Another more curious way of catch ing turtles is by fishing by the remora, a fish fouud in the tropical waters. The popular name of this fish and the qua by which the children of those coun tries call them is the sucking fish. This uame is given to them ou account of a disk ou tholr heads, by which they can attach themselves to any smooth sur face, like the side of a shark, a ship or the shell of a turtle. This disk Is like the soft leather “suckers” that are popular with schoolboys. When this fish has once attached himself to any thing you can pull him to pieces rather than force him to release his hold. Turtle hunters go In boats and carry several of these remoras in tubs. When they see a turtle and get near him the sucker is seut after him. He Is held by the ring on his tail, which In turn is attached by a stout cord. Soon the fish is securely fastened to the shell of the turtle, and turtle and fish are hauled into the boat together. Once in the air the remora loosens his hold and la dropped back Into the tub to rest until another turtle Is sighted.—Wash ington Star. LOST COW—-Strayed from my home one full-blood Jersey Cow.
