The combination against Candler
woke up no Tuesday morning lm
preseed with the idea that the farmers
look time to vole. And they voted
for Alien.
A Pennsylvania woman, after bury

were the words, "Seven Up.”
A contemporary notee the probabil
ity that both Col. William J. Bryan
and John Jacob Astor will be ordered
to the Philippines, and observes in
connection therewith: "Thia will give
Mr. Bryan an opportunity to study the

Joseph ( Chamberlain, the British
statesman, whoso recent speech advo
cating an Anglo American alliance has
sol the world by the ears, first met Ins
American wife at a girl’s luncboQp.

Considerable money is being turned
loose in the South by the trpops, says
the Savannah Now*. Imagine what
the mobilisation of the armieo in this
section would mean, in a financial
way, it the South bad wheat, corn, ba
con, beans and cauoed goods to sell.
There would be literally “millions in
it." Ac it Is, howevet, the provisions
for the troops must be drawn from the

Miss Evangeline Cisneros, whose
romantic escape from the Spanish
prieou in Havana several months ago
io recalled, was married in Baltimore
last Wednesday to Carlos F. Carbone),
who aeoisted io tbe rescue. The cere-'
mony took place at the Hotel Rennert
at noon Wednesday and the happy
couple left for Washington an hour
later. Carbonel is a member of Gen

It is quite evident that one re
sult of the war will be to usher in a
now era of eectfonalism! but it will bo
sectionalism of a nobler kind than wo
have known in the course of our brief,
but stormy, n a lienal history. Dewey’s
victory at Manila first sounded tbe
note. All the other states envied Ver
mont the honor of having the great
admiral for one of her children. Now
Ibero is the same jealousy of Alabama,
since Hobeoo did his mighty deed of
daring to the music of the Spanish
guns That tbs rivalry is keen may
be inferred from the fact that tbe per
sonnel of tbe fleet, almost to a man,
begged tbe precious favor of being al
lowed io go into tbe jaws of death. In
this rivalry of tbe etatea to do great
deeds for the country through tbeir
children there will come new vigor to
this people and a novol glory to its
-flag—New Orleans Times Democrat.
