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.”
