JOS. L. RAREY,
As everyone has observed, there Is
something altogether different about
Saturday afternoon and any other
time. It Is something peculiar. Some
element goes into it that gives It an
air all Its own. What accounts for It?
It Is a question not easily answered.
For one thing there is the rush of
things. Still 1 there have been other
afternoons as busy, and yet they were
widely different Again It Is the last
afternoon of the week. Work seems
less Irksome then, for rest can already
be felt. You knew just as clearly in
the morning that there must be an end
to It, but there Is a wide difference be
tween. knowing and feeling. This le
felt. It Is probably this that stamps
Saturday afternoon with Its individ
ualism. It is the strange blending of
work and play. It is really all work:
but for the time It is forgotten. Who
cannot go through the last hour’s
work with a light heart? And the few
Who cannot, miss the joy, the all-per
vading quiet, that come with the hours
of rest.

Atlanta. Ga., April 28. — Unknown
persons who knew how to wield a
painter’s brush so that it will cover
the most territory in a given time
have made folks out on- aristocratic

tice. In many of the yards along the
thoroughfare of Atlanta’s rich are to
bo seen Btatues of Venuses, Cupids,
Mlnervas, Dianas and other personages
of the mythical times. Most of these
statues are of bronze. All of them In
the Inst few nights have bton pnintea

did his work secretly, but well. Near
ly all of the property owners View the
matter from a philosophical stand
point, figuring it out that they are in a
good coat of paint.

The sessions of the Albany Acad
emy will be resumed Monday morning,
and The Herald is requested by Prof.
A. J. Barwick, principal, to urge upon
pupils and their parents the great Im

promptly to take up their studies. It

Meaning of B’Nal B’Rlth.
From the Montgomery Advertiser.
“The question has been asked so of
ten,” said a Jewish .citizen of Mont
gomery, "that I will endeavor to brief
ly explain It. The term Is Hebrew and
translated literally Into English means
Sons of the Covenant. The first word,
Ben,’ meaning son. ‘B’Nal,’ therefore,
means ‘Son of B’rith’ means the con-
venant.
“Just how this name came to be
adopted by the ordet 1 bearing it I do
not know, But, It Is a fact, that the
Children of Israel have always been
regarded as the sons of the convenant.
Convenant Is construed to mean a
compact between the Jews and God.
There were three such convenants.
The first came to Noah, the second to
Abraham and the third when the Ten
Commandments were delivered to
Moses.”
As to the Firemen's Fund Insurance
Co.
To the Public:
Owing to the rumor that was cur
rent on the streets yesterday after
noon, we feel that the policyholders of
the. "Firemen’s Fund Insurance Co.”
would be interested In the following
facts:
The rumor was started from a wire
received In the cotton exchange, which
was afterwards corrected.
Mr. Edgar S. Wllfon, state agent
for the Fireman’s Fund Insurance Co.,
wires us as follows:
"All losses In San Francisco confla
gration will be paid In full and busi
ness continued uninterruptedly. At. a
meeting of the ■ stockholders on the
26th Inst, the capital stock was raised
three million dollars, giving this com
pany four million dollars capital."
On January 1 their total assets were
$7,232,552, and the additional $3,000,000
now gives them over ten millions with
which, to pay the losses. The entire
amount covered by them in the city
and adjacent territory was something
over seven millions, which will leave
them three millions on which to con-
tn(ue‘ business.,
We are keeping a close watch on all
Insurance matters and feel more than
confident that all of our companies are
strong and will weather this storm-
without becoming Insolvent, but should
any of them fall, we shall protect our
policyholders in companies that are
beyond touch of any one calamity.
Thanking you for the past confi
dence in us and trusting we shall con
tinue to hold it, we are, •
Yours truly,

Here Is an extraordinary coincidence:
The Island lying between the American
fail and the Cunndlan fall at Niagara
Is called Goat Island. What Is now
called Livingstone Island at the Vic
toria falls In Africa Is called Kempon-
go by the natives. and this signifies
“goat Island.”

Bean of Fort Sheridan.
Once a man who had the reputation
of never having been beaten for the
position of orderly came from another
regiment. Private Haarscher and the
newcomer, as luck would have it, were
detailed for guard the, same day. The
whole garrison turned out to see which
one the adjutant would pick for the
coveted place. To all outward signs
there was uo difference in the neatness
end soldierly appearance of the two
men.
The officer spent about twenty mlb-
utes examining the rifles, belts, car
tridge boxes and brasses of the two
soldiers. There was absolutely nothing
to choose between them In point of
neatness of appearance. Finally, as a
last resort, the adjutant unbuttoned
the blouse of the new claimant for or
derly honors. He found a somewhat
faded but absolutely clean undershirt.
The officer passed to Haarseber and
nndld three bnttons of bis blouse.
Haarscher had on a brand new suit of
silk underwear that must have cost
him a month's pay It was the other
man on that day who walked past post
In the hot sun, while Haarscher did
’’lolling duty” In the shade Jn front of
the commandant's quarters. He waB a
Frenchman through and through, and
he was more proud of It than of any
thing else save the American citizen

Woodcraft holds the key to nature's
storehouse. A camper should know for
himself how to outfit, how to select
and make a camp, how to wield an nx
and make proper fires, how to cook,
wash, mend; how to travel without los
ing his course or wbut to do when he
has lost It: bow to trail, hunt, shoot,
fish, dress game, manage boat or ca
noe and how to extemporize such make
shifts as may be needed In wilderness
faring. And he should know these
things as he does the way 'to his
month. Then be Is truly n woodsman,
sure to do promptly the right thing at
the right time, whatever befalls. Such
a man has an honest pride In bis own
resourcefulness, n sense -of reserve
force, a doughty self .reliance that Is
good to feti. His Is the qoiifldenee of
the lone salldrman who whistles ak be

Wrongly Named Poti.
The origin of the so called-San Jose
scale lfc not certainly known; but It Is
fenSonably sute that it wde brought
from China about 1870 on some plants
Imported by Jiffies Lick ahd placed on
hlk.property in the Santa Clara valley.
By 1880 It had come to be recognized
as a serious pest and In that year was
found near San Jose and described by
Professor Comstock, who named It
Aspldlofus pcrnlelosus.”' That name
being too hard for most of us, the pest
has become known the world' over as
1he San Jose scale from the place
where It was first found by Professor
Comstock, very much to the disgust of
the people of that city and vicinity,
who do not suffer from It In any appre
ciable degree.—Sail Francisco Chroni

Everyday Miracle.-
Bullfinches fed on hemp seed turn
quite black,” said a naturalist. “Horses
kept In coal mines for several years
become covered with soft, thick fur
like a mole. The mastiff of Tibet, who
In the Tibetan highlands has a heavy
eout of wool, loses his coat completely
when he Is brought down to the plains.
The ermine In bis snow Infested home
turns white In the winter, but If he Is
taken for the winter to a warm climate
he does not turn white at all. Quite
amazing altogether are the changes
that, with .food and environment we
can effect on all living, creatures, even
on man.”—Philadelphia Bulletin.
Vflll.gr of Cripple.
The strangest village In the world Is
undoubtedly the little bnnrlet of Jatte,
near Culoz. In France, not far from the
Italian frontier, where dwell about 200
deformed men, women and children,
who in Paris go by the name of “Culs-
de-Jntte.” They are deprived of the
use of tbelr legs and thighs and push
themselves along In primitive wooden
carts with wooden wheels, which they
propel by means of a flatiron shaped
block of wood in either hand.
All' Carried Out.
The managing editor wheeled his
chair round and pushed a button In the
wall.
The person wuuted entered.
’’Here," said the editor, "are a num
ber of directions from outsiders as to

that they are nil carried ont.”
And the office boy, gathering them all
Into a large wastebasket, did so.

Tourist (visiting an ancient castle)—
Are there any legends connected with
this old castle? Gulde-Oh, yes. H Is
laid that'in ancient times a stranger

Bnt don’t be frightened. Of course It’s
only an Idle legend.
