That Society has inaugurated Steps to Raise the Money-The Alumni of the Society Will Come to their Aid In This Matter.I The Demosthenians are in earnest in the matter. And they will conTen their hall on the campus into a most beautiful build ing. The movement has been inaugurated, an.l it will be pushed through at once. This year the Demoetheniau Society is in an especially prosperous condition. It has a large membership, and the mem wrs take interest in the meetings of the Society. The hill of the Society, while it is perfectly comfortable,still needs repair ing badly, so the members have deter mined the remedy the matter. The Society has resolve * to raise the sum of one thousand dollars with which to remodel and repair their ball. That the; will succeed in their und:*taking goes without saying. The first movement will be to see what the Faculty will subscribe in the matter. The society has several alum- Di among the membeis of the Faculty. Then the society will issue a circular to its alumni members throughout the Sta^e and from this source will derive quite a nice sum towards-the necessary amount fixed by the socitty to be raised. Then the society will lay up a certain amount from its income until the thousand dollar mark has been reached When this amount has been raised, plans will be drawn for the reno vation of the hall and the work will be started at once. ir may take a little while to do this, but the Demosthenians are determined to make the movement a success. The remodeled Denn>sthenian hall will be quite an ornament to the cam pus. COL W- J- MORTON- HE WILL PROBABLY HIMSELF. SUCCEED AND HE DESERYE8 TO. What a Prominent Lawyer Has to Say About the Nexr Legislative Cam paign- Colonel Morton the Man IN HIS FATHER’S PLACE. As for me,” said a prominent law yer of Athens yesterday, and one who was io the raoe last year, “I am in hopes Colonel Morton will offer for re- election, and I candidly profess to believe that Clarke county ought to send him back without opposition.” “Yes, why n«t?” remarked another man standing by. “Colonel Morton has done good service. As to the Legislature. Who is going to run for the place next time? It is not too early to begin thinking about the matter. Not Kbit. Will Col. Morton the present incum* bent be in the race next time? That is a question that is being dis cussed, and everybody concludes that there is no reason under the suu why he should not offer for re-election. Be has worked conscientiously for the good of Athens and Clarke county. Invariably he has taken off his coat,so as to speak and work for the people when they petitioned him even against bis own personal Wishes. Take bis work done towards pushing througL the bill for the dispensary. He cou.d -' have easily killed that bill if be had been false to the people’s petition. If he had ever been silent ho could have killed it. But he worked for its passage like a Trojan and did it against his own per sonal disposition too.” # There is no doubt about it Colonel Morton has been a conscientious and siLoere representative of old Clarke county. From the present outlook Col W. J. Morton will be his own successor with out opposition. He deserves to be. TRIBUTE OF RESPECT SENT TO JAIL. Prof. Geo. D. Thomas to be a Georgia Railroad Director. The Augusta Chronicle of yesterday took occasion evidently to pay a very nice compliment to Prof. George D. Thomas in speaking of the probability of his election as a director of the Geor gia Railroad. The death of Col. Stevens Thomas left a vacancy in the board of directors of the Georgia Railroad and it Is to be 3 led at an early date. It is stated by the Chronicle that Piof. Thomas will be the selection, as the place is due to Athens and no better man could be fonnd to fill it. I’rof. Thomas is a man of unques tioned ability and progressiveness, and will fill with credit the office so ably held by bis deceased father. IN THE CATE CITY.

Yesterday’s Constitution contained an interesting interview with Professor H. C. White. It says: Professor H C. White, of Athens, was in the city yesterday. He said that the men w ho entered this fall were bet ter prepared than any freshmen in years' This is the best proof that the standard of education is improving throughout the s Hte. There are more academies, and more good teachers, than ever before in Georgia, and the number of each is increasing all the time. . . Professor White spoke regretfully of the practice many Georgia parents have of sending their tfip* to northern col leges. “We have as fine institutions as the north has, and to young men who propose to spend their lives in Georgia there is no institution which begets such a fellowship M the Uni versity.

DESERTED BY FRIENDS, The Most Strenuous Bffort8to Secure Ball Failed—Former Social Friends Leave the Banker to Hla Fate- $75,000 Required to Secure Him His Liberty, the Re sponsibility too Great. Boston, Nov. 7.—Colonel Jonas H. French, In default of $70,000 hail, has be^u committed to Charles street jail. Since his arrest he has been in the cus tody of the United States marshal. From that time forth he has been mak ing the most strenuous efforts to secure ball, but the man who bat a short time slnoe was surrounded by influential, financial, political and social friends found his closest associates so far ont of his reach when disaster came that not even the few thousand dollars needed to keep him ont of jail could be fonnd by himself or his counsel. But two men presented themselves to sign the bend of $76,000 required to se cure him his liberty, and neither was nearly qualified to assume the respon sibility. Mr. John Stetson was applied to by a friend of Mr. French, and he said ha would furnish bail providing $76,000 in good securities were placed in his hands as an indemnity in case French forfeited his bonds. The friends of Colonel French who were willing to give an indemnity bond have been en gaged in efforts to comply with Mr. Stetson’s requirements, bat were una ble to make the necessary arrange ments, and the commitment was made early in the evening.

ANOTHER BANK SENSATION. The Suspension of nirsohfsld and Wolff In Berlin. Berlin, Nov. 7.—The suspension of the firm of Hiracbfeld & Wolff, the bankers of this city, caused a sensation in finanolM circles, but it was as noth ing to the latest developments. It was reported at the time the failure was annoonoed that the Empress of Germany and Prinoe Henry of Prussia were liable to lose a large amount by the failure, and that the minister of public worship. Dr. Von Gosslor, had lost his entire fortune, and that many members of the most aristocratic fam ilies were Involved in the firm’s trou bles. Under snoh circumstances a rigid in vestigation into the affairs of Hirsohfeld and Wolff was only natural. This in quiry into tt}s hankers’ business meth ods were commenced, and resulted in the arrest of Herr Wolff, head of the firm of Hirsohfeld & Wolff, on a charge of a most serious nature, the particu lars of which have not as yet been made public. This financial nphsavel was the only thing talked about in Berlin, and farther and more startling devel opments are expected when the full facts become known. The amount of the firm’s liabilities is not yet announced, but it is understood that it iavery high. Albany, Nov. 7. —General Palmar, the commander-in-chief of the Grand Army of the Republic, makes public a long order to the Grand Army posts against the members wearing the badge and uniform participating in 1 demonstrations where the Confederate fiegie carried. After a recital of the duties of the Grand Army in the premises, the great services of the Union army during the war, the order concludes: If this grand army of loyaly citizens serves no other purpose, it will keep fresh in the hearts of the rising genera tion that love of country, that devo tion to the union, that reverence for the stars and stripes. "The constitution and laws which in future, aa they have been in the past, nmit be anchors which hold ns firmly to a solid, permanent and prosperous national existence. "With these words of admonition I have sufficient eonfi-lence in your honor and fidelity to the principles of ths or der, to feel that there will be no farther participation in any demonstration or parade where the emblem of treason is carried or displayed. "Let the cause which triumphed in war ha maintained in completeness, its Victory and f nllness of its significance. ” Religious Department. Db.C.W. LANS, Editor.

T.—Miss Maggie Doniger, an estimable and win- soma young lady 11 years of age, has just begun a moa 1 : unique treatment for consumption. It challenges the at tention of the medical fraternity, and may yet rival the "famous Dr. Koch’s lymph or the notorious Dr. Brown-Se- quard’s elixir vital as a remedy for tu beronlosis. For some time Maggie has been suffering from pulmonary affec tion, and all medical skill employed has failed to give her relief. Finally, un der the direction of her medical advi ser. she has concluded to take a course of aietitic treatment, which is to consist exclusively of young dog flesh. For this purpose a fat healthy Newfound land pup was killed and nioely dressed by George Harman and she began eat ing 1L It is claimed that dog flesh In the course of assimilation is converted into a lymph of more than ordinary vi tality, which being absorbed by the blooa corpuscles snpplants the decayed tissue and adds new strength and vigor to the patient. Whether this be true or not Maggie proposes to test its effi cacy. The value of “the littles” was never more impressively shown than in the rt- sult of the “penny a day pledge” from which the Salvation Army has drawn so large a portion of its levenuee. The mem bers of that Army are in all cdhiitrit-s of the veiy poorest people, but tens or thou- ands of dollars flow am.uajy into the tr* a- »ury iroin their lab t of ‘ laying by iD sioie” a simile peony a day. Others besides to- Salvationists h-v taken up ibe idea. Indeed it was not •.ew idea with them, for among Cnriatiai t ev -iy where there have always been those who knew the import .nee of the regular systematic appropriation of even small sums fur the Master’s work. But lately it oaa become au intergrat part of the system of some churches, an i a great many ot ibe Cbi islian Endeavor Societies, Epsworth Leagues, and King's Daughters Circles have adopted it.

Iu the first pi ce, it involves our naving the cause of mssions “on our mind” all the time, j very day we must remember to put aside the penuy. And it s not convenient eveiy day to spare even o small a sum as a penny. No, it L not an asy tl ing to do, but it is a bl esed thing. It is a blessed thing to bear even “on one’s mind,”;or better still, on one’s benrt, ihe burden of obligation to souls for whom Ci.r.st di. d; it isa blessed t* ing to have the daily consciousness of beins c-.>- workers with him. And the more “abumi- i.t ’ Ihe poverty out of which .the gift it made, the n ore blessed the reward, since the gi eater sac idee ihr more closely are we ass- ciated with ihe infinite sacrifice of our Lord.

He said that he was the last Republican executive of the empire stute, and he was surprised and unpre pared to hear of the result of the recent elections in New York, and especially in Massachusetts and Iowa. He was asked for an opinion upon the possibili ties of McKinley becoming the Repub lican candidate for the presidency in 1893. The ex-governor replied that the Ohio election meant nothing of spe cial significance, and that McKinley will not and could not loom up as a seri ous or formidable presidential candi date. When proesed for a reason he added with considerable irony, that the man whose name commenced with Me would never be the nominee of either of the great parties, nor could ho be elect- ad even if the nomination were secured.

Our lives are molded by silent influences. The epoch-maki; g events of life do not determine its conrage or its power. Tuey may throw the stream into a new direction, but do not augment oi diminish its force- fulness. The dye thrown into the river may.change the current and prevent its cutting here and force it to make a chan nel there, but the same volume of watei flows with the same momentum and its work will be done somea here. Voltaire boasted that if he could diiect the first five years of a child’s life, he cared little who had the training of future. These first few years are those in which influence is must quietly exerted. Tnere is little»ffort made to bend the child’s mind or will in a fixed direction. WethiokitUo young to re ceive special instruction as to truth and right, gentleness, kindness, God and-Christ and prayer. But the child even then, through the very pores of its skin, through a thouBSDQ ears and a thousand eyes, is receiving impressions which will go with it through all future years. And even wheD we are older, it is not sterling events of life which most effect us, but the quiet influence of daily contact with the people about us. Public opinion in this or any country is not the opinion or theory of the statesmen of the laud, but the impression made by those opinions on the mass of tbe citizens Our opinions, tastes, likes, and dislikes are determined far more than we think or c*re to acknow ledge by tbe small events which effect the iuner circle in which we move Thus the temple of character is built.
