Tippins May Run For Prison Commissioner. Baxley, Ga., March 27. —The friends of the Tippins bill will be interested to learn that Hon. G. B. Tippins of this county is con templating entering the race for prison commissioner in opposition to Hon. E. L. Rainey of Dawson, Ga. Mr. Tippins is at this time in the race for representative of Appling county, but his friends state that he will in all probabili ty withdraw from this contest to enter the field of state politics. The Democratic executive com mittee of this county is expected to meet in the early future and call the primary. There are about forty candidates for various offi ces in the county and they are in favor of an early primary. It is predicted that the primary will held the early part of May. O’Donnel Managed It. The Washington Star prints a an amusing story told by Repre sentative F. E. Lewis of a jolly Irishman by the name of O’Don nel, who believed that every man’s wishes should be consulted —but that only his own should rule. Each year at the time of the [St. Patrick’s day parade, O’Donnel felt that he should be the master of ceremonies on that occasion. He managed for years in the most legal style and by an “ex pert” knowledge of parliamenta ry law to win this distinction; and not a man of those present ever dreamed that the proceed ings were not perfectly correct. O’Donnel’would call a meeting of his fellow countrymen in the basement of Jones’ store; then he would mount a chair, and speak as follows: “Gintlemen, this mating is called for the purpose of electing a chairman of this mating. It is moved and seconded that Cap tain O’Donnel be chairman of this mating. The motion is car ried, and I thank you for the honor. It is now in order to ap point some one to act as marshal of the parade, and make arrange ments for that day.” “It is moved and seconded that Captain O’Donnel act as marshal of the parade, and make all the arrangements. The motion is car ried, gintlemen. I thank you for the honor you have shown me, and the mating stands adjourn ed.” And not a soul except O’Don nel had opened his mouth! New Sweetmeat., For several summers, while I was in high school and college, says a contributor to one of the Sunday magazines, I was em ployed by a wholesale grocery concern. Besides selling the usual line of groceries, this firm manufactured flavoring essences and toilet preparations. Sometimes I traveled as substi tute for one of the regular sales men while he took his vaca tion. On one such trip I entered a little country grocery, and an nounced my business to the pro prietor. The man said, “Oh, yes I have been looking for you. But before I buy anything I want you to take back some stuff your house puts up that I bought from Mr. A. It is no good.” I told him we were always will ing to stand behind anything we sold, and asked to see the unsat isfactory article. He brought out a case of petrolem jelly (sim ilar to vaseline,) packed in eight ounce glass tumblers. “There!” he said. “That is the first thing I ever bought from your house that wasn’t up to the mark. But that stuff is no good. We were out of preserves at the house, so I took a jar of it home; but we couldn’t do anything with it. We tried it on hot bread and on cold bread; but none of us could eat it.” Wanted Seed Cane. I want to purchase for cash 5,000 stalks Seed Cane. Will take 2,000 white and 3,000 red cane. See me at once or write, Perry Blount, ad Soperton, Rt. 3. Taking Him Down. The wealthy young man from the East End became smitten with a mere Working Girl, as the tale is told. In the enthusi asm of the moment he proposed to marry her. But to his intense surprise, she refused him, says the Cleveland Plain-Dealer. He thought that she might be awed by his position and address and worldly possessions. So he talked human brotherhood and equality and modern democracy. “I see,” he said. “You refuse me because I am rich and you are poor —because I have birth and position, while your ancestry is doubtful. That idea is un- American. We are all alike in this country. The fact that I drive a car while you sling hash means nothing—my position is a mere accident of birth.” “It’s more th’n an accident,” she demurred. “What is it?” he demanded. “Your birth. That wasn’t an accident —it was a catastrophe!” Got Even With the Barber. The postmaster was not so en grossed in the reports that he was writing that he could not hear the strange conversation, quoted in Das Echo, between his assist ant and the purchaser of a two cent stamp. “Don’t you care for any post cards today?” asked the assist ant, as he handed the man the stamp. “No, not today,” replied the man. “Or some stamped envelopes? We have some new ones.” “No,' thank you.” “Would you like a money or der?” “No.” “Or perhaps you would like to open a postal savings account?” “Certainly not.” “Let me advise you. at all events, to rent one our letter boxes. But the man had fled. “Who was that man?” the in dignant postmaster exclaimed, when he had recovered from his astonishment. “What do you mean by asking him those ques tions?” “That was my barber. For years, when he has shaved me, he has bothered me with recom mendations of massages, sham poos, hair cuts, hair tonics, and what not. For once in my life I am even with him.” Sheriff Sale.
