To this work ot mislern ImproTcmoat, cspcrinlljr In public nppolntmcats, the Gennan* seem to iiavo brought more ot the nAunttdc spirit uud method than any other people. Their uublts ot thoroughuess lu research and of patient, exhaustive treatment of uoy subject In baud have fully characterised tlieir progress In the arts of civilised life. Aliovo all, tbe Germans hud already developed a system of public adminis tration more economical uud uioro In fallibly effective titan could have been found elsewhere, uud they were pte- jKtred when the growth ol their cities and tlm new * demand tor modern Improvements Hindu ‘ nec essary u great Increase la the number anil vnrluty id puhhc function^ lif do lu thu best posa ble wuy whatever it was devilled to under take. Ho eoatlileiit were they indeed In tho cUlcleuey of Uielr administrative organisation that tlii-y dared to assign to tho iminlcliinlltles spnures of uctmu .which elsewhcru have been left to pri vate effort mid control. Municipal councilors iu Gemutuy me, as n rule, very excellent eltiseim. It Is considered a high houor to hu elected to tho couucllf Membership Js a title of dignity Hint merchants, professional men and acholnrs are usually eager to bold. No salaries lire paid to the coun cilor*) nuil a peiiuliy Is attached to re fusal to net If elected. The sentiment .toward llirae post lions Is much thu Mimo lu (ierumny ns lu Great llrltain, thougli stronger with men of high ed ucation in German than In lirltlsh towns. Tho re-election of good coun cilors term lifter term Is common In both countries. It would bo difficult to estimate fairly tho bitluotu* of tho class system In I’russla upon tho char acter of city councils ns regards con servatism. mmlllgendo mid iraamess ability. Undoubtedly tho iveeut growth of tlm nodal dentocmey would have n sharper Inthirnoo upon the -city coun cils if tho class system were abolished mill If till' lUUilieliyil franchise were iniulo Identical with tin* simple man hood suffrage that exists for purposes of representation lu the imperial leg lslaturc—tho relchsmg- la addition to the magistracy and* the council, thero In In llcrlln a body of about seventy-tie so-railed "clllien deputies," who are selected by tho oouncli for their general illness to serve an Sswotstes on committees charged with the oversight of various munici pal Interests, such as park*, schools, the wire Of the poor ond the sanitary services. They have no authority to voto In the council, but they Illustrate, at the centre of oUmlntsrivvtlon, the ex cellent pradtlco which Is followed throughout the entire ramification of German city government, ot enlisting tho co-operation of unofficial citizens In nfanagir.g tho ordinary concerns of tho community. Tho tmrgoiuustor and magistrates are tho most highly trained experts that a German city oon secure. The hurgo- tiuistor la an expert in Hi* general art of municipal administration. Associa ted with him In tho magisterial council ■ire expert* In law. experts In finance, experts in education to administer the sohools, experts In engineering to over see public works in every character, experts tn sanitary science, experts in public charity, experta In forestry and pxrk manage mast, experts tn the tech nical and business management of wa ter and gas supplies, and so on. The analogy would not be perfect, but It would answer roughly to com pere the governmental structure of a German city with that of a r.tlway cor poration, tn which the board of direc tor*. chosen by the stockholders, ap point a general superintendent or man- oxer, a general passenger agent, a gen eral freight agent, n chief local officer, a chief engineer, a superintendent of motive power and other genrral officers nrsl leave to these Mgh salaried experts, drown from the service of various other transportation companies, almost Ins entire management and opfratlon, of the road. The shareholders represent! the voter* of Merlin, let us say. the board of directors am the municipal council, the general superintendent is the chief burgomaster, and the general officers at tits head of the departments nre the magistrates.

Dur ham and Louts Uooner, the latter colored, were overcome by poisonous gases In s well *t > o'clock yesterday, morning, and It was with oonsUeraibls difficulty that they were rescued. The accident occurred at the plant of, the Louisville Vitrified and Pressed Rrlck Works, about seven miles from tho city, at a small station called Lochhind. D. W, Durham Is manager of the brick con cern. Ills brother, J. W. Durham, and Louis dinner, colored, were enxugtd In digging a well, which was about twenty feet deep. Durham was down In tho well end the poloonous got enveloped him snil ho was almost suffocated before he could cull for help, llonner wus at the lop of the well manipulating the wind lass, and ho went to Durham’s assist ance. Manager D. W. Durham was only a short distance away, and he also heard the call for help and ran to tho spit. When he reached tho mouth of tho well ho saw Iilo brother and the colored m:m lying at tho bottom unconsGouo. Mr. Durham called to several other workmen whs wore about the brickyard, as ho lowered himself down In tho well. He Immediately became unconscious as he reached the bottom, and when tho other workmen got to tho mouth of the well they could oee the three men lying prootrated at the bottom. Torn Duke, n colored workman, was,the only one who would risk his life to oavo tho three help- ices men. Duke tied a rope around hlo waist, and, taking unothcr rope, asked to be lowered Into the bole. When ho reached the bottom ho tied the other rdpo about the uncanacluo form of Mr. D. W. Dunham and both were puffed to the top. Then Duke lock a deep breath bf air and again descended Into the wall. Tills time he brought out Mr. J. W. Dur ham. Duke could hantly stand when the top of the wall wus reached this, tlm.-. but In n fow seconds he started town after Ronner. The rope wus tied about Conner’. waist and Duke then yelled to haul up. When the men pulled them up Duke was also unconscious. The lour men were placed side by nl-le u the ground and restoratives were ru- piled.

It was just after the returns had come in hut Thursday evening, and it had been determined who were the nominees. The boy* felt obliged to celebrate to the suc- success of their candidate, and lingered, peril*!**, » little too long with the crowd. All were more or le*t *n a decidedly good humor. They got on the flfteen-mlles-a-c?ntury line, known to those who do not ride on It as the Second street line, with Sourb .Macon, a* their intended destination. The glare of tho electric light on the hut corner had been passed, and the cur nnd it* two-good nstured, easy going mules were Jingling their way Hecond ttreet, each nour or so getting a little nearer tho terminus of the line. Those in the car were in all conditions of ho* briety, and the reverse from the "grumpy" m*n who had cheered for their own can didate* as the opposing clans made their appearaiyre on Mulberry street on that noiublc night, to the cheerful ones who bad been "bracing up" thilr spirit*, thouc whom the spirit* didn't brace, and coun teracting the influence of the defeat with frequent offerings to old Bacchus In the allde shf(js, the latter class being some what, nnd very noticeably, in the majority. As there, i* no necessity for a fast schedule on thin line, the mule* were allowed, owing to the lateness of the hour, to pick their slippery way along tho street, the'driver punctuating his re mark* on the result of the nomination with frequent slashes of whip, by way of reminding them that It would not be bed time until they got to the stables. But hero’s where the amusing act came in. In a lull In the course of an argument being carried on out on the front plat form, for it wo* largely one-sided, and pauses sometime* did occur, a man on the sidewalk signalled to the car, and tho driver, catching his eye, relaxed Ills ef forts to keep the horses In motion and th» car came to a dead stop, throwing most of the passengers within tJic. 1 laps of their nearest neighbors wltb • unusual civility, perhaps, to prove the Innate su periority of a Macon street car driver, the-driver helped the unsteady nnd un savory individual to the pkuformb An archy and rebellion reigned among his members. Hi* feot were in utter revolt against the commands of his brain, which; to all outward appearances, was in a no condition to issue orders. With no little effort, and not without calling In tho assistance of a man who was standing,by him, the driver propped him up •gainst the end of the car and renewedi his attentions to the .weary horses as tho car proceeded on its waary way. The mules, upparently with a view to their fow minutes* rest between trip*, were putting In their best work and get ting over the ground like Nancy Hanks a kite-shaped track, when the car pulled suddenly up at the Belt Line Junc tion and threw tho well limbered passen- »;• is about like die* 1 iu a dio* Imx. This was too much for tho passenger on the front platform. He had been braced against tho car with a view to plain, straightforward navigation, and was not prepared for such an abrupt break In the rcguk&rilty of things. With the utter abandonment of an Inert mass, he flew off a tangent and landed straight over the mules' heads Into the mtddle of the street. With tender care the thoughtful and ever tender driver, with tho assist- once of a sympathetic passenger raised the fallen man and restored him to his place. To avoid further accident the kind friend linked his arm through that of w cursing and swearing politician and anchored hint thus securely. ".Shank ye," murmured tho obliged one. "Do 's much r you shum day." And then, as ho seemed to take In tho situa tion more sensibly, ho asked: "Say, mis ter, did the car run off the track?" "No: you aro all right. Go to sleep." "Shank ye." Then, after a long pause: "Sphloslon?" "No, of course not." "Shank ye. Ye're ver* kind. Good Christian man, I should shay; by all means— kind-hearted and all that Shay," with a nudge of the elbow, "collision 1* "No! Shut up. you dribbling idiot; noth in* ain’t happened." • "Well." said the man with the heavy head and light heart. "If you'd only told me sho before I wouldn't a had to a got off. 8ee?
