Seismic disturbances are an Inter

hardly be regarded us of practical

v'alne; there is no way of preventing
them or guarding against them. Low

quakes are expected, and wood has
much more elasticity than masonry.

It comes to us through tho Philadel
phia Record that la an address to
y^ung Scotchmen delivered at the
opening of a gymnasium building at
Dundee in Ills capacity as Rector of
St. Andrew’s University, Mr. Andrew
Carnegie spoke of the use of alcohol
and tobacco as twin evils. "Drunk
enness,” be said, "is the great risk
ahead in the career of every young
man. It Is far more important that he
insure himself against it than against
death. A drink policy," said he, "ts
worth ten life policies." These are
words of wisdom, hardly less applica
ble to conditions in the United States
than In Scotland. Death will come
when It will come. Every young mnn
can Insure himself against the drluk
habit and save money, credit and char
ter by the abstention.
JUDGE SHEFFIELD'S SECOND
LETTER.
The editorial In Thursday’s Herald
on the letter of Judge H. C. Sheffield
of Arlington, calling on the Georgia
Chautauqua to have the bar-rooms of
Albany closed during Chautauqua
week, or at least on Military Day, for
reasons fully set forth by him, has
called forth another letter from that
gentleman, which we publish else
where In this paper.
We regret the rather personal turn
which this discussion (we shall not
call It a controversy," because Judge
Shefflold says he doesn’t want to en
gage in one, and we certainly do not)
has taken, but this hns been unavoid
able on our part.
The editor of The Herald esteems
Judge Sheffield for personal reasons
and sincerely admires him because he
Is a man of force, strength of charac
ter and endowed with the courage of
his convictions. We know the manner
of Just Judge he Is, and are not unfa
miliar with tho purifying work he has
done In hts circuit since he went on
the bench. For these and other rea
sons, therefore, we would not engage
In a controversy with him, except un
der extraordinary conditions.
Judge Sheffield Is mistaken In as
suming that anything that has trans
pired In the past has In the smallest
degree Influenced the personal feel
ings of the editor of The Herald to
ward him. Nothing could be "wider
of the mark” than such an Inference.
Our friend Is simply mistaken, and
we are satisfied that he will accept
this assurance of hts error without
question.
One thing more: The editor of The
Herald was not a Henrst man during
the last presidential campaign. It
seemed to suit tho political purposes
of Borne poople in the Second congreB-
slonnl district to cay that he was for
Henrst bocauso he was loyally stand
ing by his friend, Congressman OrJggB,
who wns an avowed Henrst man, but
whenevor and wherever he wns per
mitted to speak for himself It wns
well understood that while he thought
It would be n party mistake for the
Democrats to nominate Pnrkor, he
wns not ndvocntlng tho nomination of
HearBt. Tho odltor of The Herald
was never n Henrst mnn, and so stated
with postttvenasB In those columns.
Wo regret that Jmlgo Sheffield should
have reverted to politics at all. partic
ularly past politics, and we will not
argue any of tho propositions lie
makes on this line.
Why Bny moro? Judge Shefflold Is
sincere In what ho writes, but like nil
men, he Is not above limiting mistakes.
And, far and ahovo nil theso other
minor matters, wo hope he ts mistaken
In the belief that Ills physical condi
tion Is ns Bcrlotis ns Ills physicians
have led hint to fear. . May -ho be
spared fbr many years of usefulness
to his section and people. Is our hope
and our prayer.
THE HERALD’S
CHAUTAUQUA EDITION.
From the Worth Local.
The Chautauqua edition of The Al
bany Herald was a hummer. It Is a
credit to the management of the paper
and to the town that is enterprising
enough to authorize such an edition.
From the TIfton Gazette.
The Chautauqua edition of The Al
bany Herald Is the best special Issue
of any newspaper that has reached
the Gazette office this year, In many
respects. In years past these editions
have been of the highest rank, but
thlB one easily eclipses Its predeces
sors, both in character of Illustrations
and scope and variety of the special
articles. Our loved ArteBlan City,
since Its awakening about five years
ago, has made wonderful strides, and
of this growth and development, the
special Issue of The Herald Is a faith
ful mirror. Indeed, so good was It that
the postal authorities could not admit
It to the malls as second-class matter,
and the publishers were compelled to
pay 4 cents postage on each copy.
From the. Turner County Banner.
The Chautauqua edition of The Al
bany Herald of April 15, Is on our
table, and to say that the Issue Is a
gem, Is to put It very mildly. The 1b-
sue is brim full of useful Information
from n historical point of view, as It
dates back to the very foundation of
the city by fcol. Nelson Tift, proceed
ing step by step during all these years
of that city’s wonderful progress and
development down to the present
time. We muBt congratulate The Her
ald on the splendid, clty-llke appear
ance of the Chautauqua edition of The
Herald. Here's hoping that you and
your beautiful city may continue to
grow and prosper.
From the Dublin Times.
The Albany Herald comes out with
a splendid Chautauqua edition Of
thirty-six pages, treating especially of
the eighteenth annual session of the
Georgia Chautauqua, which opens
next Sunday with a sermon by Rev.
Eckman, of. New York, who also hns
charge of the Bible normal class,
which Is one of the features of next
week. This edition cost The Herald
people 4 cents postage per copy to
send to its subscribers, a new ruling
of tho postofflee department being
that oply the regular editions of a
paper aro entitled to second-class
postage. This is a pretty hard ruling
to apply to a paper whoso special edi
tion Is for the upbuilding of Its people
and community, though It may he

From the Darien Gazette.
The Chautauqua edition of the Al
bany Dally Herald, published on Sun
day last, was one of the finest papers
over gotten out In Georgia, and we
heartily congratulate our old friend,
Editor McIntosh, on his enterprise.
With men like Henry M. McIntosh to
boom Southwest Georgia, why there Is
nothing to keep tt from prospering as
never before.
From the Blakely Reporter. •
The Chautauqua edition of the Al
bany Herald was a gent. But Editor
McIntosh Is noted for his public spirit,
and our sister city Is to he congratu
lated on having such an enterprising
and progressive citizen.
Wo publish a letter from Mr, I. H.
Scales, of TIfton, indorsing the posi
tion of Judge Sheffield on the question
of closing tho saloons of Albany dur
ing Chautauqua weok, especially on
Mllltnry Day. Wo gladly slve space
to Mr. Scale's communication, and >ve
make tills paragraphic rofercnco to It
merely to take exceptions to the term
"your drunken degenerates," which he
uses. We simply want to say that the
"drunken degenerates" who aro In ev
idence on the trains In and out of Al
bany on Military Day aro not ours—
not Albnny’s—but aro thirsty fellows
who come from the neighboring dry
towns and surrounding country. If
tholr neighbors and friends can't make
them stay at home or keep them so
ber, why, In the name of all that Is
reasonable and fair, should Albany be
expected to do It?
