SOCIAL NOTES.
"Don't forget to have 'Tuesdays* put
In the lower left hand corner," ho said
idtrrfalvcly. •
They were .talking of visiting cards
nnd all the many other little things
attendant upon the setting up of a now
establishment.
"Oh," you way say what you please
about it,, tout n's a sensible fashion,
and I will like It and um going no
adopt U."
Bhe was a dainty, tiny bit of at wo
man. "No bigger than any tfrumo" he
ofton said of her. And very dellcloualy
Imperative was she as she sat facing
them In the big old rocker, the footrest
of which her Hale feet could barely
reach. Ho stnllod indulgently. She
was sued) a little -thing, with such funny
little airs of queening ft over his Six
feet of rc/bust innsouUnlty. TIo could
not always humor her to the extent
of not smiling at her,
"Oh, you may laugh," she cried, "but
that's Just 'because you don't know any-
thing About It. Of course, when’ you
ore keeping house you want to have
your friends come to sco you You
want to make 1t pleasant for them,
so that They may go away and say
nice things about you nnd call you u
good housekeeper and all that. Welt,
you don’t want 'to miss Them when
they call, either, so you Just Aiav<wn
•at homo’ day You lay aside all work
on tnnt day. You dress up the house
and tlio children and you make your-,
atlf nit nice looking ns possible, and
then when your friends call there is
nothing to roarr either your pleasure
or theirs.
"Yes, but your house nnd your chil
dren Should be 'dressed up" all the
* time," he began.
"Tha’t’s nonsense," she interrupted
with fine scorn. "Of course, you want
to keep your house neat and sweet
und orderly all Che tlmo. Every woman
who (is any woman at all alnm At that.
1 tut 1 hopo you don’t think a house
keeper has nothing to do but sit up
In her drafting room and watt for call
ers? And I hope, too, tfeAl you don’t
think wo put everybody in the sumo
degree of intimacy and frtendHnees?
Now I have a few—not siiaft a nu
merous few. cither, lot mo tell you—
but a few friends whom l don’t mind
Inviting into my sewing room or tak
ing into my panuy or my kitchen, for
you must remember that I do some
times sew, and while my cook 1s a
fairly ett\clent one, 1 can yet ttftrti her
a tew things. Well, as I Mid, l havy
a few (trends, but they very probably
are precisely the ones who never would
darken my door on my Tuesdays" as
you say. They'w got sens** enough to
know that the latch-string Is always
outside the door for them on all days,
rrnoao Tuesday* are for that large cir
cle of acquaintances who ire very plea
sant people Indeed end whom 1 am
g'Jad to see, and whose calls 1 do not
certainly wish to miss. So for their
convenience und mine l give up one
whole day of each week to them. Now.
If four or five, or even more, ladies
of the same set would select the same
reception day. don’t you see how we
might get all our catling done ajn
tenutlloally and still have time left if.
snore important duties? Bee?"
Yes, he certainly saw. He saw

The prettiest piece of work I've seen
in many a day was s banquet lamp
shape made Inst week by ono of tho
setters of Mount do Hales for Mrs. Will
iam u. Johnston. The material used
was pink crepe paper, with decorations
of while snowballs. The effect was
dainty nnd exquisite tbeyond descrip
tion.
Hy tho way. what a charming pas
time for children (n 'that of making
paper flowers. It is an nrt easily
learned and one Which appeals pecu
liarly 'to a Child's Innate lovo of the
beautiful.
Tho snowballs which were used In
decorating this handsom, lamp Just
described were nil made by n dear,
bright-eyed, handsome little fellow in
town of whom the sisters mnke a great
pet nnd to whose puro Influence nnd
noble example his Innocent child-life
bears wordless testimony dally.

A GOOD RIDDANCE.
Mayor Home Gives Transportation to
an Ungrateful Fraud.
On Thursday last a white man nicely
dressed and of good address called on
Mayor Horne and after representing
himself to be a lawyer and a school
teacher, naked him for a pass to At
lanta.
The man protended to be a gentleman
who had been unfortunate enough to
get out of funds while away from home
nnd friends and fold such a straight
story to tho mayor that he was fur
nished with the desired pass.
With the pass In his pocket, the man,
who gave his name as Tom Walsh, left
the city hall and the mayor felt satis-
fled he hod dono an act of charity that
was charity Indeed. Walsh, however,
did not leave the city, and while the
mayor thought lit was speeding away
to home and friends with a grateful
heart he wits filling up on mean whisky.
After Welsh had tanked up until he
felt rich enough to hire a hack he called
s jehu nnd said he wanted to ride. The
Jehu was glad to get a drive, and soon
Walsh was rolling along the streets us
hint as a Martin hack horse could carry
him. Finally, however, It occurred to
hint to know the politics of the hack
driver, and when he was Informed that
the driver was a Democrat he expressed
his opinion of him In very vlgbrous En
glish and decided to wipe up the earth
with him and tear the hack to piece* to
boot. The driver raised some slight ob
jection and Walsh raised a great big
row. which attracted the nttentton of a
policeman, who escorted hint to the po
lice station. Yesterday morning he still
hid the pass nnd Recorder Freeman
directed on ofllcer to escort him tb the
train and send him on his. way.

REPUBLICAN
CONVENTION
Delegates Elected to the Republican
State Convention Which Is
Soon to Be Held.
RESOLUTIONS OF PROTEST
Were Passed Concerning the Treatment
of Prisoners on the Chsiia Gong
nnd tho Optional Whipping
Post—Hot Populists.
The Republican county convention of
Bibb county met at Odd Fellows’ Halt
yesterday and was called to order ait
1:30 o’clock by R. <M. Logan, chair
man of the county executive commit
tee.
Each city and county district was
represented in the convention.
In opening -the convention Chairman
Logan made an address, in which he
urged preparation and unity in the
coming campaign and asked for har-
moAy In the meeting.- His remarks
were received with applause.
The first business before the meeting
was the appointment of the following
committee on credentials: Henry
Griggs, L. C. Wilder and J. E. Morris.
After an examination of the credentials
of the delegates had been made the
committee reported thirty-six delegates
as entitled to scats on the floor. The
next business was the appointment of
a committee on permanent organiza
tion. This committee consisted of A.
Ellington, A. A. Erwin, H. Lowe, J.
S. Martin and R. B. Jackson. The
committee recommended R. «M. Logan
for chairman and G. W. Jordan for
secretary, and the recommendation was
adopted. The next committee appoint
ed was to elect delegates to the state
convention. This committee named the
following delegates, who were duly
elected: A. Ellington, R. Af. Logan,
Frank Ddsroon, R. B. Jackson, J. S.
Martin and L. C. Wilder. The follow
ing were named as alternates: R. D.
Locke, G. 'W. Jordan, H. M. Allen,
C. McCarthy, Henry Griggs and Henry
Graggs.
R. H. Hart was made calrman of the
Second ward delegation. G. W. Jordan
and Walter Corbett were put on the
executive committee from the Third
ward. Lewis Wilder was put on the
executive committee from the Fourth
ward, C. McCarthy and George Taylor
from the Fifth ward, C. E. Oolemnn
and Obi-n Bell from the Sixth ward.
Joe -McLendon was made a member
from the county at large to succeed A.
A. Gordon, who was expelled for Join
ing the Democrats.
The following resolution condemning
the optional whipping post was passed:
“To the Republicans of the County
Convention: iMy attention hnB been
called to an article published in the
Macon Telegraph of an optional •whip
ping post being established by the re
corder of Maoon at the city barracks.
Some time ago Jessie Houser and Lula
Williams were ordered whipped by the
reteorder. Lula's hands were held
through the bars, she was partially
stripped and given thirty-nine lashes,
and the same punishment was also
applied to Jessie Houser. Since then
several others have been whipped in
like manner. It has got to be a per-
petua< thing there, and we know the
whipping Is entirely wrong, contrary to
law and nature. We know of no law
on the statute books passed by the
legislature to establish a whipping
post, neither on optional whipping post.
Therefore, we believe the act is con
trary to the law3 of Georgia and the
oonsltution of the United States.
Furthermore, It casts ft reflection upon
the good name of the cdty of Macon and
(s a blot upon civilization; therefore
be it ^ .
"Resolved, That we, the Republicans
of this convention, do appoint a com
mittee of five to wait upon Judge Har
deman, asking him to call the grand
Jury’s attention to the matter and ask
them to take K up at once and ascer
tain whether this optional whipping
post is lawful or not, and if not, to
have It stopped at once, and If the of
fenders fail to stop to have them
brought before the bar and have them
tried for violating the law as*the law
directs."
The following report and resolutions
concerning the treatment of prisoners
on the chaingang was adopted:
"To the Members and Chalrman*fi)r
This Convention: Complaints upon top
of complaints are being filed before
•the executive committee against the
bosses of the county chalngang for
their mean and cruel treatment' °£the
colored convicts on the., gang. They
are whipped unmercifully, overworked
and worked when sick, which Is ert-
tirely wrong and not In keeping with
the law. About o month ago John
Beamy was whipped until he fell and
died In five or ten minutes afterwards.
Therefore be lb c c , _ __
"Resolved. That a committee of three
be appointed by this convention to wait
upon Judge Johh L. Hardeman and
ask him to have the grand jury inves
tigate the matter and have it stopped.
Also to examine the condition ot the
camr*. which are said to be in a de
plorable condition." - N . . .
A committee of seven was appointed
to wait on Judge Hord«*man and-lay
both grievances before him. Sam
Gone, R. D. Locke and <C. McCarthy
made speeches to the convention -~
the subject. , ^ .
Sam Gone addressed the meeting and
UK he thought the Republicans
should join the Populists in the comPng
election, but th»* convention refused to
take action on hl« remarks.
The convention was perfectly orderly
and harmony prevailed throughout.
