THE ATHENS BaNN^R: TUESDAY MORNING, DECEMBER 2, 1890.
Royal Baking Powder Leads All.
The latest investigations by the United States and Canadian Govern
ments show the Royal Baking Powder superior to all others in leavening
strength. —
Statements by other manufacturers toJthe contrary have been declared
by the government authorities falsifications of the official reports.
A LONG CLERICAL CAREER.
AWAY, AAV AY DULL CARE
BILL NYE ORDERS YOU ALL
i BE THANKFUL AT ONCE.
TO
There Are Several Reasons Why You
Should lie. Chief Among Them Being
j Your Ability to Read This Thanksgiv
ing Proclamation—Dinner as Usual.
1 [Copyright, 1830, by Edgar W. Nye.]
The following proclamation may not
roach the people in time to affect thecel-
ebnitiou of Thanksgiving day. but if
not it may he used as a reverie or a
message to confess:
Whereas, it appears by reference to
the history of the world and other sta
tistics that the past, year has been one
unusually prosperous in many respects,
and especially to members of the legis
lature throughout the length and
breadth of the United States; and
A JAY.
Whereas, No serious plague or famine
or war has laid waste the fair face of
the republic; and
Whereas, The wages of a crew of near-
■ ly thirty men working in a button fac
tory in Vineland, N. J., have been ad
vanced 15 per cent, ad valorem since the
passage of the McKinley bill; and
Whereas, Now times begin to brighten
up all over our land as a result of the
payment of my election bets; and
Whereas, The man who was on the
stomp a few weeks ago, and now in the.
pottages, has ceased to state that we are
now upon the eve of one of tlio most im
portant elections in the history of this or
any other country; and
Whereas, The reception of the literary
works of Tolstoi and McAllister have
given us good reason to believe that the
scavenger and the snob must still keep
outside of good society; and
Whereas, I feel like it;
Therefore, I, Edgar Wilson Nye, of
the county of Richmond, and state of
New York, do hereby constitute and
set aside the Thursday following the
publication of this proclamation as a
day of general joy and thanksgiving
throughout the land.
The /ear last past has been one of al
most unexampled prosperity from the
subscriber’s standpoint, and Thanks
giving proclamations are generally writ
ten by a man who is feeling pretty com
fortable himself. The year has indeed
been real prosperous. Our growth
throughout the length and breadth of
the land has been phenomenal, and in
some cases reprehensible. If padding
had been as high before the census was
taken as it is now many United States
cities wonld have been eyether much de
pressed in figures or hopelessly in debt.
Another cause for congratulation is that
for a few months New York has not
been ashamed of her babies, bringing
out many from concealment and count
ing the noses of nations yet unborn.
Over and above all, we congratulate
everybody and shake hands with voters
and ourselves because the election is
over. The loud smelling torch and can
didate have been laid aside till another
time, and the campaign lie, with a large,
irregular nailhole in it, is in the hell
box of the country paper.
There are many causes for personal
gratulation and congratulation. The
stout lady who liad a room above mine
at the boarding bouse, and who wob
jumping the rope in order to reduce her
weight, has decided that it is not bene
fiting her and has ceased. We ora having
anewceilingputonmyroom. AJsotothe
roof of my head. I do not find large
pieces of plaster in my bed in the morn
ing, and soon I can take off the piece I
have on my nose.
But the clearing up of the political at
mosphere is the chief* cause for national
joy, and the greatest. Why, by the way,
should we have elections so frequently?
If they were two or three times as far
apart we could almost afford to let con
gress pass any bill it wanted to, and we
could meet it with our savings from gin
and kerosene. And to whom does the
great shoreless sea of campaign funds
gc? Does it go to the church or the
state, the widow or the orphan, the hon
est industrious or afflicted?
Nay, beautiful reader with the violet
breath; nay, soft voiced reader with
the high, intellectual sealskin shoulders
on your wrap, the grand old ocean of
campaign funds steals not op to lave the
feet of the starving, or cool the brow of
the invalid. It quenches not the thirst
of the dying and it softens not the bed
of suffering.
The campaign fund lubricates the
wheels of swift rolling jobs. It prints
and distributes tracts, which nobody
reads. It buys the services of unmusic
al bands, whose notes are protested on
every corner, and the jtice of whose alto
horns is flavored with the demon rum.
It buys ooal oil which seeks to outstench
engine room of Satan's great exposition.
It buys speeobes that would empty a
union depot, speeches that would stop a
slock, speeches that would remove super*
fiuous hair, speecnes mat would cut
holes in a steak, speeches that would re
move warts, speeches that would scour
knives, set saws, remove verdigris, grease
stains, moth patches, freckles or wooden
buildings.
Then the great balance goes down the
parched throat of men who have no
money or physical strength or brains
to throw away, bat who improve this
opportunity to raise blood blisters on
their souls, and drift away from their
homes into the dark shadows of doubt
ful primaries and rum soaked rallies.
Some day while congress is not too
busy, and while feeling comfortable, 1
wish that a law or joint resolution—1
guess a joint resolution would be best—
which would extend the term of office of
everybody just twee as long, and thus
relieve the swelling of the great political
joint, and reduce those regular biennial
panics on Wall street, could go through.
m saying this I think I voice the senti
ment of many of our best people on
Staten Island. Of course, I can handle
an ordinary Wall street panic myself
temporarily each fall if it does not come
too early; but suppose tliis regular polit
ical panic should strike the country just
after I had bought my coal!
There are many other causes for
thanksgiving besides tho silent tongue
of the political orator, but none that
makes me feel better. I heard a
man the other day in a political speech
tell the anecdote of the boy who tried
to sell his pups as Democratic pups
and failed. Afterward he tried to mar
ket them ns Republican pups', charging
a rise on them because they had their
eyes open now. If any one who reads
this story here will swear that he never
read or heard this story before, and that
he has not been for the past 800 years
with Emin Bey, I will send him by reg
istered mail a nice feather bed which is
almost as good as new.
And yet the speaker had been in con
gress, where most of tho good new
stories originate. A congressman who
has served one term and cannot tell his
constituents at least one good new story
—or new at least—ought not to be re
elected.
I would as soon think of going to
Duluth and building a big ice machine
on the frapped bosom of that great
American Bay of Naples as to attempt a
new story in the presence of a member
of congress. Boccaccio, Arabian B.
Knights or Balzac, after a day or two in
tho cloak rooms and restaurants of the
Capitol, would go home and proceed to
plow corn till called home by tho hand of
death.
Yes, we are ever glad, ever peaceful
and contented, ever thankful and hope
ful, when the time comes to lay aside
the battered flambeau club, and with a
sigh of relief throw our old lie nailer
Into the tool box for another two years.
Then let us march on, and, like the
bobtail car driver, never look back. Le*.
us re joice that wo aro spared to tackle
the old thing again for yet another trip.
Let us look up and press onward like a
bright eyed jay examining the exterjor
of The New York World building.
Let ns lay aside every weight that doth
so easily beset ns like a Fulton market
salesman, and light out liko a man who
has been warned away from u hornet’s
neat by a committee from tho nest it
self.
The past year lias shown us as a peo
ple that honesty is the best policy, and
for one I think of taking out one myself.
It has also convinced us of the preva
lence of evil and its great undesirability
in the neighborhood. It has shown us
that the wicked do, of course, prosper
sometimes, but they will one day find
that shrouds have no pockets in them.
Also no vaseline or cold cream for burns,
scalds, etc., etc.
Let ns rejoice that Ward McAllister
among sensible people is regarded as a
doubtful ward, and that snobbery is not
society in this country among the great
majority and never will be till money is
more plenty.
Let us be glad that the town of New
York has still some good hunting and
fishing within the city limits, and that
within right of the Statue of Liberty one
may still successfully hunt the fleet
footed chamois of the Harlem.
I am personally gratified that we are
to have a long, cold winter, which will
give a boom to my new Almanac and
fur overcoat, the latter of which I did
not have a chance to show off last sea
son except one evening at a reception.
other girls in England adopt the lm< 8
he will let me know.
Now, therefore, be it remembered
that on the date and day above named,
at the residences of those to whom these
presents may come, and in such manner
as may seem most fitting and proper,
full permission is hereby given to cele
brate the day as to best show the appre
ciation of the blessings showered upon
us in the vast and to express the hope
that, the future will be even more abun
dant
I cannot close this proclamation with
out expressing thus publicly on behalf
of the American people the thanks of
the nation, coupled with my own of
coarse, to the president of the United
States for various favors shown and for
cigars left at this office. My brother
was running for office in Minneapolis,
and so 1 gave them to him.
He writes me that outside of the
Eighth ward he does not think the cigars
did him any noticeable harm.
The exercises of the day may bo so ar
ranged as to best subserve the interests
of those who may read this. Meals of
course will be served at each home ac
cording to its own customs, and nothing
whatever in this proclamation shall be
so construed as to jerk dinner out of the
middle of the day and fiat it into the
shank of the evening.

First oil Episcopal Clergyman, Now a
Catholic Dignitary.
Forty-one years ago the Rev. Thomas
9. Preston, of Hartford, Conn., but tem
porarily acting as
an Episcopal min
ister in New York
city, surprised bis
colleagues by re
nouncing Prot
estantism and
asking for admis
sion to the Catho
lic church. A
year later, on the
16th of Novem-
ber,-1850, he was
ordained a priest
and entered on
that career of polemical and clerical
activity, which made him the eminent
Mgr. Preston—the American bishop,
right reverend and prothonotary apos
tolic.
The recent celebration of the fortieth
anniversary of his ordination as a priest
has recalled to the public mind the curi-
oas facts of his early life, especially the |
fact that in a Puritan society and of |
Puritan lineage and training he e^red
upon a course of study which induced
him to become a Catholic, and this with
out being sought ia any way by advo
cates of that faith. Mgr. Preston was
bom in Hartford, Conn., July 23, 1824.
He says that his family held and he in
herited all the Puritan views regarding
the Catholic faith. He was reared in the
Episcopal church, graduated from Trin
ity college, Hartford, in 1843, entered
the Episcopal ministry soon after and
was attached to the church of Rev. Dr.
Seabury, grandson of the first bishop of
the American Episcopal church.
In The Forum for February, 1888,
Mgr. Preston gave a detailed account of
his progress from the one church to the
other—an extremely interesting article
even from a secular standpoint, and
worthy of study as showing the stages of
an unusual mental development

A House Celebrated in the Annals of

On the old Meadow bridge road, but a
mile from Richmond as the city now is,
stands the so called Pullman house,
which was old in 1862, and was long the
headquarters of Gen. A. P. HilL In the
A HISTORIC RELIC,
main room of that house, just after the
battle of Seven Pines (or Fair Oaks),
Gen. Lee convened all the Confederate
generals and planned the system of bat
tles which ended at Malvern Hill. The
mark left on the floor by an ink bottle
overturned by Gen. Magrnder was long
pointed out to casual visitors till it was
hidden by dirt and grime.
The building is now in tho last stages
of possible habitation, and its only in
mates are negroes of* thp poorest sort,
but to Virginians it is only second in
historic interest to tho McLean house at

The Memory of the Gallant Dead.
It looks as if the day was not for dis.
tant when America will be known as
the country of monuments. Hardly a
week passes without eom« citizen, asso
ciation, municipality or state arranging
for tho erection of a memorial to the dis-
tinguished dead. Among the latest of
these movements is that originating with
Mr. Richard Caldwell, of Blooming
Grove, N. Y., who has offered to erect
at his own cost a suitable memorial to
the soldiers of the town who served in
the Orange county regiment in the war
of 1812, and in the Twelfth New York
volunteers in the war of the rebellion,
inclose the monument with a substantial
Iron fence, and make the whole work a
free gift to the town, upon the single
condition that the town authorities shall
undertake to care for one} maintain the
memorial in perpetuity.
The Coquettish Railway Engine.
Railway locomotives are as “fickle as
women,” if the engineers are to be
believed. An employe of a line running
through Maine declares that nis engine
will take a train over a steep grade with
a rush one day, whilo perhaps on the
very next day, with the same train and
the same grade, the artful coquette will
arsstejid to be shy. vsfll draw back in
feigned timidity, fence, flirt and finally
do what it is asked to do with a pout.
“It’s hard,” he said, “to realize that
your engine isn’t alive.”
A Phenomenal Head of Hair.
If “woman’s glory is her hair” then
Miss Laura Burns, of Martinsville, Ind.,
is specially blessed, for she is said to be
the only femalo in the United States
whose natural hair has attained a length
of seven feet. It is very heavy and of a
light brown color. Miss Burns is 5 feet
3 inches tall, and when she stands her
hair trails nearly two feet behind her.
