The sun had scarce begun its journey across the meridian when the "Senator," as he insists on having himself called, be gan, to feel a real importance and to lose sight of the fact that he was In reality but a measly joke. And so It came to pass that Jeffrey mounted the horse which had been provided for him and rode out upon the highways and byways to assume command of the military forces of the Georgia Chautauqua. Jeffrey was nev er afflicted with bashfulness, but Is rather well stocked with a sort of courage which Is commonly known as brass. So he rode brazenly forth. Right out Into the midst of them he rode. And with one mighty sweep of his wooden sword he shouted out a command to hts forces. But just as he reached the height of his assumed glory he was captured by the enemy. And* not one of his com mand drew a sword and fired a gun In the defense of the great commander who fought with Napoleon nt Water loo, who bled with Washington at Yorlitown, and who died with thous ands of his comrades at Gettysburg. Policemen to the right of him, po- llcempn to the left of him, policemen all around him, he was marched to the lockup. Hts wooden sword was' sur rendered, he was unseated from his gallant mount, and slowly led to his prison cell. There In the solitude he will have the opportunity to dwell in memory on the thrilling events which have been crowned Into his varied life of some 331 years’ conspicuous activi ties, but the joys of military day of the Eighteenth .Annual Assembly must remain with him an anticipated but an unrealized treat.
