“You have rrnd the Herald's account of tli© Mat

for my action. The people have s right to know
both what I do and why I do It. I have no secrets.
I don't boilers In them. The Senate rejected the
nomination of Matthews.”
I suggested perhaps it was * ■trlcMy party wot©.
“Perhaps,” he replied, thoughtfully. If, how
ever trss r*»Jlv rejected by a party rote,
then the party did not rise to the importance of IL*
occasion. It was a matter of very grave Import
ance. in which partisanship is curiously and obvi
ously out of place ” Than he turnea on me and
asked Pointedly: ••Matthews la an able man, lake
not? lendeavored earnestly to And out all about
him. I thought I succeeded. I consulted those
who were best acquainted with him, who know bis
whole peraonsl history. I had only on© a? b }®?'
namely, to put the best man I could find—that U.
the best colored man in the position. The colored
race are develop‘ng a great many very able men.
They bavo accomplished wonders during the past
twenty-five years. I could not appoint them all,
so I was compelled to use my best Judgment to do
a service to our colored fellow-dU^ena and at the
same time to give the appointment to a faithful
and able man. I think 1 have done both.
CHAJLACTEK Of HIE APPOIKTEE.
“Matthews la, I believe, a thoroughly competent
follow. He baa a good education, and he achieved
it In spite of many serious obst icles. He occupies
a good position as a lawyer, and he has won it by
right honest hard work. The people who know him
most intimately speak of him most highly. What
more can be requested?"
•A colored Democrat," I suggested, “la regarded
as a novelty. I baveevenbeard that one gentle
man well known In Washington remarked that a
colored Democrat Is a political anomaly or even a
monstrosity.”
"Em," bo replied. “I bollov. tb.re la Mm. inch

How It to Tinkling All Over Macon by Day
and Night.
Macon ia just now nllUcted with chestnut
hells. Yon know a chestnut hell is a
bell you can hitch to the cigar pocket of
your vest and striko when any ono tells yon
aa old stalejoke, or something yon knew
before. One-half the people wear them,
and the other half get caught with thorn.
YoU can hear their tinkle on the street, on
the cars, in the stores and shops, and at
home. They go to show that one-half the
people arc much smarter than tho other
half, and that a new joke ic aBcarce thing.
Aa a rule, the tinkle prodaces an embar
rassment, or a hind of feeling akin to that
which takes hold of a fellow when he is
sorry he spoke.
A chubby-faced baby, wittdimpled arms
and a sour milk bottle, was being trundled
along in a carriage on Second street yester
day. A kind-hearted gentleman, with a
white cravat and a clerical smile, stooped
down, and chucking the cherub under
the chubby chin, said, "whose little
tootsey-wootsey are you?’ The baby dis
played its swelling, toothless gums, and
pulled his bell. The kind hearted gentle
man folded his clerical smile and moyed
off.
The other night on High street a little
girl was undressed, and after kissing mam
ma good night knelt down by the Bide of
her crib, and with her pretty hands clasped
and uplifted began to lisp, “Now I lay me."
A wicked little brother pulled his bell, an,
the little girl went prayerless to bed. But
this wicked boy was properly treated next
morning at the breakfast tablo. When the
family bowed their beads (or the father to
ask the nsual blessing, the wicked boy
struck his bell. Then the father struck the
boy. and grace is now said without inter
ruption at that house.
Down on Second street, near Alexander
school, a lot of boys were playing baseball
yesterday. Tho umpire shouted "three
strikes and out.” The batter tinkled his
bell, and the umpire blushed and told him
to take his base.
A young man, who shall be name-
loss here, because he is a clerk
in a bank, called on his college street girl
last Sunday night. Wnen he was taking
his leave over the front gate, he said in a
soft, crimson plush voice: “I am proud of
yon darling; are yon sure you love none but
me?” She tinkled her bell. It sounded
to him load enongh for a fire alarm.
A man got drunk on Fourth street the
other night and after breaking several win
dows and wiping up a floor with several
innocent parties was pointed out to an offl-
cer. "Come along with me,” said the ofll
cer os he ran his hand into the man's col
lar. The drunk pulled his bell and the
officer unwound his band from the collar
and walked sorrowfully
The night clerk at the telephone exchange
was aroused from his slumber after a long
time tho other night, and a voice came over
the wire saying, “connect 409 with Dr.
Pill quick. The boy rubbed his eyes, tin
kled bis bell, and the man at 409 dropped
tho lover.
A well-known physician asked his Mag
nolia street patient to show him her tongue.
The patient struck her bell and the phy<
sleian left her to die.
A man boarded tho Southwestern train
ooming to Macon yesterday morning and
said to Conductor Kendall; "I have no
money, won’t yon pass mo to Macon?'
The conductor pulled his hell and tho man
jumped from the train.
A countryman poked his bead in at the
general delivery window at tho post-office
veaterday and asked: "Is there anything
here for ?’’ Aleck Logan palled hit bell
and the countryman vanished
A Tybee drunk and disorderly was before
the recorder yesterday. "Five dollars or
ten days,” said the court The drunk and
disoiderly tinkled his bell and the court re-
milted the fine.
At one of tho hotels yesterday a drummer
kicked at being assigned to a room on the
fourth floor. The clerk pulled his bell, and
the man paid his bill without another mur
mur,
A collector with a lot of hills approached
a citizen on Mulberry street yesterday, and
with a smile said: “Cnn you do something
on this for mo to-day?” The man palled
his bell and the collector wilted.
Thero was a fire at one of the brick yards
tho other night, and nobody responded to
It is not true, as appears to have been
stated to the inspector, that the subscribere
mining th»ir papers were all from Macon.
We presume that our subscribers at the

Who Carrie* on tlie News lluslucsa at the
Telegraph’# Kxptnse*
For Bomo timo comploiota hftvo reached
thin ollico fron BQbBoribers at
Indian Springs as to tho failure
to receive their paper* regularly. Aa the
papers are adtlrcaaed from printed alips,
the fault could not lio iu this office. Efforts
were made to remedy tho difficulty, but to
no avail.
In the mean time the TtLtoaapn a nows
agent at the Spring lodged complaint that
a little grandson of B. \V, Collier, the post
master, waa also selling th* Tn-xmiarn,
and as the exclusive sale had been given la
the regular news agent, it was necessary to
investigate the matter. It waa at first sap-
posed that the postmaster’* grandson was
purchasing his papers from the news boys
on the train, but this was not the case.
VVe were reliably informed a few days
since that labels on tho papers addressed to
snbscrbers were being torn off and the
papers pot on sale.
In order to fix tho matter beyond ques
tion, a private mark waa pnt upon the pi
pers going to tho Spring Tuesday aud
Wednesday. A friend of the Tiutoaaru
bought up the copies offered for a ds by
persona other than the regular news agent
on Tuesday. On Tuesday afternoon the
matter tm refeired to Inspector Booth
of the l’oat-office Department and he at onee
detailed Inspector Moore to make an inves
tigation. The Inspector reached the Spring
on Wednesday morning, and the private
mark was again placed npon the paper* of
that d»y to aid him in hi* investigation.
The details of that investigation are now
in possession of the Fost-offioe Depart
ment at Washington, bnt the following let
ter from Inapeotor Booth given the general
result:
Atlast a, August fiG.lfiSO.—II.C.IiansoD,
manager TELConArB, Macon, Ua.—Sir: In
spector Mooro haa returned from Indian
Spring anil mad6 his report. Ue found
yonr charges against the postmaster to be
true, and they were not denied. His ex
cuse is that the papers for the three ladies
yon mentioned had not been delivered tor
several days, and on inqairy he learned that
they hail returned to Macon, as one of
them was Mrs. Munson and all were from
Macon he thought the papers would bo
stopped, and that it waa therefore unneces
sary to notify you aa required by law, aDd
farther, that there would be no barm in
letting the little boys sell thoe* that he
knew would nut be called for.
Ilewasmncb humiliated, acknowledged
bis fault, and will profit by the lesson, lie
is nearly eighty years old, and a-his offense
11 nut great the matter will not he | urn tied

it to poisoning by ailantm tree* that abound
in hut neighborhood. His errand was to
impress npon the health officere the necee-
hity of doing something to get rid of the
plague. Captain Curtis belitvea the trees
are injuriom enongh to warrant the health
officers in inaugurating a regular campaign
against them.
‘ Few people know,” said the Captain
“how poisonous the follen ia that falls from
the tree in July and August. It is lhe cause
of no end of sickness in the city every Hum
mer. Any number of caees of alleged mala
ria are simply cases of ailantn* poisoning.
