Cleveland admit* that lie used to
■log bass. TUI* vraa when he was young.
Now that he Is married he does the next
best thing—he slugs very low.
It is a well-established principle of
domestio economy that the young man
who would got up With the *uu should
not stay up later than 10 o'clock with
the daughter.
It is rumored that Cecil Oabbett, late
of the Central railroad, has been ten
dered the position of general manager of
the Chlcngo A Northern railroad. It is
believed he will accept.
Harrison is getting solid with the
Methodists. During the Grant adminis
tration this was the state church, and it
nsed to be said that nobody but (north,
era) Methodist* need apply.
Cleveland can hardly be longer re
ferred to as “the great boss.” He be
came a back number a few days since
when he assumed the position of lieu
tenant governor In his family.
The lady editors are coming to the
front in Georgia. Mias Harrydele Hall
mark (can't some good fellow induce her
to change this name?) Is announced as a
member of tho stall of The Augusta
Chronicle.
The Savannah Morning News notes
that Hon. Gazaway Hartridge expects to
re-enter the newspaper field us a Wash
ington correspondent this winter. He
will probably represent a syndicate of
Southern papers.
It is said that Chicago wants revision.
Have you heard anything of the demand
of Chicago for another Bible revision?
No; what do they want changed? They
insist that the star was seen by the wise
men of the West.
Miss Beatbick States, a handsome
girl of 20, arrived in New York the
other day with the avowed intention of
getting married. She will then become
the united States; but will her husband
thereby become a polygamist?
The Philadelphia Times says: “It is
beginning to be generally admitted that
Mr. Blaine's health Is developing symp
toms of a startling character for those
who have been making their contracts
on the basis that he was out of the race.
Bbeb Wadsworth of Augusta has
also taken a contract to advertise from
the pulpit Sandy Cohen’s King Solomou
show. Hailing from the same town as
Sandy, he seems to be in favor of recip
rocity. But what can Sandy do to re
pay Brer Wadsworth for the boost given
the great show?
The state is now confronted by with
the frlgbtfnl possibility of an extra sess
ion of the legislature, which may become
necessary to rectify the blunder In
framing the appropriation bill for the
publlo school fund. What have the peo
ple of Georgia done that they should
have to suffer thus?
They arrested nearly two hundred
persons In Baltimore last Sunday for vio
lating the Sunday law. Among the of
fenses charged against them were black
ing boots, running ferry boats, hiring
out backs and oabs and other public
conveyances. This doesn’t look as If
the blue laws were peculiar to New Eng
land.
Here’s bow It looks to a bachelor edi
tor: Another thrifty young damsel in
New York is olamoring for 950,000 of a
gallant old boy’s wealth because he
called her his dove and several other
styles of fancy poultry. Nowadays the
girls don’t allow the mature bachelors
to have any fun at all—except at a very
exorbitant price of admission.
The exhibition of the alleged holy
coat of Treves has dosed. It Is said to
have been visited by nearly two millions
of people, and the garment has now
been enshrined not to be shown again
for several years. One of the features
of this exhibition baa been to show the
prevalence' ot the grossest superstition
In au age which has been alleged to be
a skeptical one, and one In which agnos
ticism proven*. The exhibition has not
boon without Its value.
Alabama seems also to be afilloted
with the Legislative free-pass humbug.
Says the Mobile Register: “Legislators
ought not to accept free passes front
railroads. The State pays them mile
age, and this mileage moro than pays
the expenses, incurred in going Trqm Writs expected of it. But this remedial
•heir homes ih the capital and return- agent U not the only
*“«• In tkJ», 8tafo ,the, mileage is 40
oents * mile. This not oply pey* the
traveling expenses of our t salons, bo*
leaves them some spare change tSr pay
ing tholr washing and getting their boots
blacked.” , a
GO HE HOME.
Here is bow the Atlanta Herald turns
loose the vials of its wrath upon the late
unlamcntcd:
“The Legislature is going homo.
“Going home, to meet the rvrath of
Georgia taxpayers.
“Going home, to preach economy lu
the knowledge of their own wasteful ex
travagances.
“Going borne, to account for their
failure to accept a home that was dona
ted for the old soldier.
“Going home, to come in contact with
a constituency that has suffered by their
representation.
“Going home, to hear the solemn pro
tests of a great people against a record
of tlie most wasteful misuse of public
fundi.
“Going home, to liiten to the tele of
woe of a tax-burdened people whom
they have encumbered by extravagant
expenditures.
“Going home, to explain why iu the
face of their boasted economy they have
made the taxos of Georgia higher than
they have ever been before.
“Going home, to face the condemna
tion that justly awaits them for being
parties t<r the most outrageous scenes
that have ever brought disgrace upon a
legislative assembly.
“Going home, struggling under the
most replete record of legislative useleis
ness that has ever signalized the delib
erations of a body of public servants in
tbe history of the state.
“Going home, laden with free passes
in one pocket, and mileage allowances
in the other, when they had an opportu
nity to enact a law against tbe accept
ance of euch hampering courtesies.
“Going home, to answer why , they
voted $400,000 to the widowe of ex-Con-
federates, when 9200,000 and 915,000 a
year to sustain a home for the penniless
survivors of that cause, was whst the
pcoplo demanded.
“Going home, this twin brother of tho
billion-doilar con; ress, to be bnried bo-
ueatli a swelling tide of popular indigna
tion.
“Going home! God pity them! May
such a holy never assemble again "
THE TWO CANDIDATES.
The announcement that Judgo Cri-p
of Georgia lias gone to Ohio to support
Governor Campbell will add considcra
lily to public interest in the momentous
contest that is going on in tlial state.
Tbe interest in Judge Cr)sp will not bo
due merely to tho fact that he is a new
and conspicuous figure in national poli
tics, but moro to the rivalry for the
speakership which.exists between him
and Mr. Mills. The Texas statesman
has won a great deal of prestige by the
excellent work he has done in Ohio,
while the noted Georgian has been
lu a measure lost sight of. Now he will
come to the front again, and the publlo
will be enabled to judge' how he com
pares with Mr. Mill* as s stump speaker,
if not as to his qualifications for the
sreakership.
It Is questionable if it be good polioy
to bring such noted southerners as Mills
and Crisp into direct antagonism with
the Ohio republicans. Still the beat
moans of breaking down soctional prej
udice is to bring the people of the sec
tions together. Even the bringing to
gether of tbe northern and southern ar
mies caused the men of the North and
South to respoot each other more than
bofpre. But the Ohio republicans are
irlousiy, unscrupulous, and If (hey
thtsk they ean make capital out of it
they will raise a woful howl, abpnt the
invasion by southern politicians. Even
the election of s southerner for speaker
will be seized upon as a retext for stir
ring up what sectional prejudice there It
in the North. Happily that moit unpa
triotic spirit is beboming beautifully lees.
At any rate it is time for the people of
the South to etand by tbe rights to which
their numbers and intelligence entitle
thorn.—Jacksonville Timet Union.
WORLD'S FAIR MOTES.
AH I THERE!
Young man, take lesson, so that when
you get to be an old baehelor or widower,
es the case may be, you will know juet
how to make a fool of yourself, artistic
ally and scientifically. There is a
breach-of-promise suit in New York In
which an old fool (then an said to be
no fools like old fools) and a broken
hearted maiden an the litigants.
It isn’t so vary long ago that be wrote
this delicious whip syllabub of amorous
rhetorlo:
Oh, you dear, damns UtU* jswell You
priceless, peerless treasure! You dearest
tad best ol (Iris la thla wbols worldl Olra
me another klae, ray little rosebud. One
more, darling. Thank you. Ohaslbi.
And now the peerless treasure Is suing
the old gentleman for a cool fifty thou
sand for breach of promise.

The success attained by Dr. Keely In
hie treatment of inebriates deserves, per
haps, to rank as the greatest medical
triumph of tbo age. The Keeley treat

Florida, at its recent World’s Fair con.
veutlou, decided to raise 9100,000 for iU
representation at Cliiaago.
Ivan Malaknff, a St. Petersburg capi
talist, wants to reproduce at tho exposi
tion a street scene from Nijnl Novgorod,
the celebrated place where expositions
have been held for 800 years. He agrees
to spend 8250,000 upon the reproduction.
The magnitude of tbe building opera
tions now going on at Jackson Park can
be surmised from the fact that an aver
age of from thirty-five to forty car loads
of construction material arrives daily.
Tbe exposition buildings are riling with
wonderful rapidity.
A company has applied for space to
erect a building in the form of an ice
berg, iu which to make a polar exhibit.
A group of Esquimaux, with reindeer,
furs and all the paraphernalia of inhab-
JtanU of the polar regions, will be in
stalled in the buildiog if tbe concession
is granted.
Between 340 and 350 men are employed
in perfecting the landscape features of
the exposition site. It is the Intention
to make the grounds exceedingly beau
tiful by walks, drives, lawns, terraces,
fountains, shrubbery and flowers. Sev
eral hundred thousand dollars are to be
expended for this purpoee.
The women of Hlinois, who have tbe
spending of 980,000 of the $800,000
which the state appropriated for its rep
resentation at tbe exposition, have been
granted for their exclusive use one-tenth
of the space in the Illinois building,
which, altogether, is something more
than an.Sere and a half. The women
will make n separato exhibit
One of tbe unique features of the
Mexloan exhibit at the fair will bo the
celebrated Pandure family consisting of
five persons, who are probably the most
expert workers in clay and modelers of
figures in the world. This family will
be lent to Chicago by the stale of Guad-
adalajara. It is the intention to provide
a Mexican house for thorn to live iu dur
ing the fair, and a workshop whore their
work may be inspected.
Dr. Ed sard Bedioe, United States con
sul at Amoy, China, who has beau an
active promoter of the interests of the
World’s Fair, writes to Chief Handy that
in all English-speaking circles in China,
there is a great and growing interest iu
the Chicago exposition. In addition to
other work be lias secured promises
from etght'frlends to send on their pri
vate collections Of curios and brie-a-brao
in 181)3, and hopes to obtain most inter
esting collections from Amoy and from
Formosa.
If people would take the advice of W.
C. Russell, the druggist, they never
weuld start on a journey without a bot
