THE TELEGRAPH AND MESSENGER: FRIDAY. JULY3.18S5.
A DREAM.
Gubernatorial Proapaots—Hannnh's Di
lemma.
CartcriTlllo ConranL
Scab Con&AKT: A* 70a era intimated In
helping and ad Tiling the female lex, I
decided to lay my troubles before yon.
Jack la a good fellow and a good buaband,
but be is in a bad way, and I am in a
quandary whether to send him to tbe doc
tor to the asylum. Tbla is my bother, and
I will give you bis latest symptoms, and
then I hope you will ad rise a loving bat
distressed wife.
Down in tbe wire grass region we don't
have any news, especially since Prlmna
Jones quit going to tbe Legis
lature, and took to raising the
first bale of cotton, which he
ginned moatly ont of last year's crop. Jaqj;
gets mighty restless, and last week he
wanted to go to Atlanta to see if he
couldn't get tn appointment from Cleve
land, but he didn’t have tbe money, and
he was In a bad way, I tell you.
To comfort him, I cooked a good-sized
dish of pig'a face, a bowl of cold slaw, a
pot ot Joe Brown’s oollards, and a small-
sized crock tnll of ox’s maw (he would not
wait for it to soak in but one water, and a
ahorttime at that), and he ate it all up.
I said, “Jack, you are an old gray-headed
man, yon are over sixty, bat you will
Buffer If you grieve and take on after this
fashion.’ 1
“Hannah,’’ said Jack, “I'm fixing up to
dream. Borne folks drink liquor, and
some eats opinm, bat I drown sorrow wi'b
dreams.”
How, Conrant, he just dreams, and
dreams—and anch dreams! I couldn't
aleep that night, and I send you wbat he
said, and then, dear counsellor, tell me
what i<> do. After the meal was finished
he ssj s : “'lln:.nah, If it kills me, old wo
man 1 won 1 to cheated out of many days,
nohow, and I do love ox maw and Joe
Drown collards I These are 10 relisbable,
1 wish I had a waabpot full—hero, Han
nah, give me the water dipper," and bless
year soul, he drank the pot liquor.
I feared and trembled, and when he laid
down across the foot of the bed and said:
“Hannah, kiver me up tight, bar the doors
and stop tbe cracks; 1 feel cold; I am
going to die or dream, one.” You'd better
believe I did all I could for the poor man,
Iu a few minutes be was snoring liken
three-year-old wlregraaa steer, I knew he
was getting bis work in then. As the
collards, tho slaw, the pig’s face and the
tripe began to mix, he bellowed and
sweated like s horse with the colic, and 1
watched and waited. About 1 o'clock In
the nlghtheturnedoverandsnorted, “Ob!
Hannah, wbat a dream!” “Tell it tome,
gang. It Is always tbe way when you
‘grease a fat sow,’ and I greased a slick
one, with a cool thousand a year and noth
ing to do when I put him on the Capitol
Commission. Give some folks an inch
and they will take an ell, and now I've my
handu full and breakera ahead.
I felt sorry for the poor man„ Hannah,
1 the 'fat boy’ waddling
and if I hadn't ascn ___
back. I'd a told bim so.
“Governor, Judge Simmons and myself
have been •< arching the records for a third
term, and it can't be found: it isn't there,”
were the first words spoken. "8bame,
where is tby blush?” said the now irate
dignitary. “Itiscrnel to charge up that
third term to me. That little piece of a
term left by Governor Stephens was ex
hausted in pardons, Governor Boynton
drained tbe dregs dry, and I bad nothing,
absolutely nothing. I didn't have a chance
to make an appointment until poor Dr.
Itslns died, because—because yon know
there were some conditlona when I got in,
with no delegates over Bacon and Boynton,
who bad then all. My bands wers- tied
then, and tbla 'third term scare’ is cru
elty. I didn’t believe it of yon, no I didn't.
I want to try my foil band the next time,
tbe mansion Is alt clean, and the fresh
curtains a Hopping, and no Independents
In the way.”
“Did you mention repairs, Governor?"
blandly Inquired tbe bay-window orator.
“That a a fly in your dumpling, my dear
sir. Times are close, and there are some
plaguey fools in the Legislature who like
to get on Investigating committees. Look
out! It is whispered that this old shanty
we are in draws a pile of money to be used
iu keening it clean, and wnere it tne
money ? lor there’s nothing to show for it.
When I occupy this room I'll clean It and
draw pay afletwarda, if it becomes neces
sary. I will fix things in shape to be
ready to move into the new capital with
eclat and distinguished mention 1" At
tbla happy thougbt the speaker threw back
bis head and smacked bis lips, whereupon
the Mr. Daniels g r savagely excit.d.
“I wish to tbe Lord I had put that other
fellow on the commission In yonr place.
He could have done me some good up in
Cherokee Georgia, and unless I dislodge
Campbell Wallace and Newt Trammell, to
get s job for him, I believe iu my sonl he
will yet eat me up.”
“Did you remark on Cherokee Georgia,
Governor?” said Johnny Bull. "Who is
your best man up that way?” “Oldman
Towers is my main stake and comer post,
dear Jack, don’t go to sleep anymore', no f come. Finally the Governor found
Jack,” I pleaded, and here it Is, ss 1 took Tolro:

dolrectue night;

I just thought Georgia was getting into a

over there, and 1 pricked up my ears to

"Hope you then have his expense ac-

and whereupon tbe excitement grew so

tbe niggers In the cotton patch quarreling
and disputing, ‘fending sod proving’ ana
it was more like that than anything I can
compare it to.
“The eonfnshn continued to increase.
Sometimes I'd hear ‘treachery,’ 'Bullock'e

Bacon committee,’ ‘railroad fees,'“marble

more things toesing about, and it warmed
them up to boiling heat. I prayed for

ELECTRICITY AS A MOTOR.
Running Street Core Rapidly and Under
Control Along an Eleotrlo Current.
BtlUmore Gun.
The first trial trip of tbe new Daft elec,
trio motor of the Union Railroad Company
was sucoeaatolly made at 2 o'clock yester
day morning as far as Wyeth's switch,
bait tbe distance between the Huntingdon
avenue car stables and Hampden. A
good deal of interest la taken In tbe teat of
this motor.audtheUnlonRallroadCom-
pany are the first to put It into use one
bittiness basis by adapting their line
(about two miles and a half) for electric
railroading. A second motor will be here
in a few dsya and with the two machines
tbe line will have all the electr cal equip
ment naretaary lor working tberoad.
Tbe trial trip ot tbe motor was made af
ter the horse-car work was done for the
night. Tbe motor, which weighs about
two tons, comprfaes a 10 horse power dvn-
amo, and It placed oo a little cab about
618 in dimensions, open at both enda for
tbe engineer, Tbe dynamo in the bnildiDg
at the car stables is of 50-borte power.
The engineer manages the concern with a
brake to regulate tbe speed, an Index or
gauge, a lever to regulate tbe eleotrlo con
tact, and arrangements to reverse tbe mo
tor, etc. It bad rained daring the night
and the track wae not In a favorable con
dition, because In portions the rails
were covered with dirt. When
tbe motor, In moving along tbe tracks,
atrack tbit debris tbe electric contact was
broken and tbe wheels threw off ebowers
of sparks like St. Catherine wheels, tbat
lit up tbe surrounding darkness. A com
mon sweeping broom cleared away the
dirt, and in every instance the motor et
once moved oo. Tbe engineer by se
vering tbe contact could come to a fall
slop as readily aa a gaslight la extinguish
ed.
A third rail la tbe important factor in
tbla electric locomotion. This rail is ele
vated above tbe other rails by being placed
on little wooden insulators saturated with
paraffine. These are set on tbe croas-ties.
A grooved wheel twelve inches in diameter
runs in tbe third rail. Tbat conducts tbe
electricity from tbe third rati to the dyn
amo In the cab, which is geared to tbe
driving wheels, and from the wheels of the
motor to tbe tracks, by which means the
circntt Is completed. The connection is
made with ilia third rail from the
Urge dynamo in tbe eugine-hous >
at tbe stables by a covered copper
wire. When the grooved wbeel under tbe
motor is let down, then tbe circntt U com
plete and tbe car fa ready to start. It la
claimed that tbe Datt motors can operate
a continuous street car line ot ten miles,
running at a speed ot eight to twelve miles
an boar and bailing one, twoormoreWrs,
aa required.
Tbe manager! of tbs Union Railway
Company believe tbia is tbe coming motor
to do tbe street car work, and that it ta a
competition between electricity and horses
or mnlea—oats and Cumberland coal. Th*
engine for operating tbe motors will
consume ab >ut two Iona of coal a day, and
is to dispense with tbe servire ot about
twenty horses, which bave been needed to
team the oars. The teed of a horse is esti
mated at tbirty five cenU a day, or $7 for
twenty. Tbe motor can hanl a couple of
ears when tbe business is good, and its
first coat will in time not exceed tbat ot a
pair of horses. Tbe engineer acts aa tbe
diiver, and tbecaramuat bate conductors,
so that there will be no reduction In tbe
nnmber of men employed on tbe cars.
Tbe Inventor ia at work upon plana for
nslog iba motor on street cars In crowded
thoroughfares. He proposes to pnt the
motors under tbe cars.between tbe wheels,

MR. BEECHER ON TOBACCO.
Better Not to.Use It, But He Who Doss
Should Use Good Quality.
Rev. Henry Ward Beecber made some
remarks about tha nae cf tobacco in Ply
mouth church last even ng, prefacing
them with tbe statement tbat he didn't
propose to preach, but to talk to tbe young
men of hit congregation. His remarks
were anent to the fast two verses of First
Corlntbiana, vL: “Know ye not that your
body is tbe temple of the Holy Ghost?"
etc. Civilization, said Mr. Butcher, las
great waster, ami it wastes tbat which la
meat precious, tbe bralu and n.-rve and
thla gives rise to a great many stimuli tbat
me employ. It ia not without reaaon that
men fiy to opium, baaheeali or tobacco.
Anything tbat exhausts the nerve and
brain force to a greater extent tban tbe
dally Bupply ia weakening, and anything
bruiting is an
that prevents such exl „
economy. Btimnlibold the nerve force
trom wasting, when need in minute quan
tities, but bare an effect diractlv to the

reverse if used in Urge quantitlea. We
hardly dare say tbeae things to young
people, for fear tbat they will r ■

Mr. Beecber said be bad revised bis
early opiniooa in regard to tbe me of
tobacco. He didn't believe anything was
gained by a wholesale denunciation of
tobacto, but bo would urge tbe young men

spoke at length, and tn a severely critical
way, of the disagreeable features o(
the use of tobacco, and urged bia
young men to oultivate politeness and
avoid tbe dulling ot the moral sensibilities
tbat often follows the use of stimulants.

to tbe public wot bia dust with M. Gervols
de Clancy while ttcretarv of the Prussian
Legation at Frankfort. M. de Clency was
dancing there at a ball, bolding hie beaver
at arm’s length. Aa a practical joke,
Harr Von BUmarck knew no better than
to throw a dozen eopperz In tbe French
man'* hat while whirling ronnd with bit
partner. 11. de Clancy let bit bat drop
wltb tbe money, end attempted to throttle
tbe yooog Gtrman Secretary of Legation,
fortunately protected by bis frieodt. Next
day tbe two odvernrias fought a duel, in
which tbe Frenchman was wounded, wbiie
Herr Von Bismarck remained unscathed.

marck thus early showed hla animosity
