TIE DEMOCRACY
Its Grand March -of Vic
tory in the District.
BEN BUSSELL WAS ENDORSED.
Caluoun Democrat* Litton to
Ben’s Elr.ueuc* and Pan Blag-
laK Besolalioa* Endorsing Him aad
tbe Democratic Platform,
' Bussell’s march through the Second
district is one of great Democratic tri
umph.
Everywhere he goes great crowds of
people assemble and listen to his mag
ical words as he tells them in an elo
quent and graceful manner the true
Domocr&cy as taught by our fathers.
Id Gapt. Ben E. Russell tbe people
. recognize a man true, and whose De
mocracy and public life cannot he
questioned. ▲ 'man possessing lu
every respect all of those gifts and
qualities needful to make a representa
tive of the whole people.
He spoke in Ft. Gaines yesterday
tnd aroused a great deal of enthusiasm.
The day before he, in company with
Hon. W. N. Spence and Capt. W. M.
Hammond, addressed tbe people of
Randolph county.
The addresses were master pieces
aud sounded the death knell of Third
--partylsm. Russell is the Democratic
candidate for Congress, and like a
brave man he meets tbe people face to
face and tells them his principles and
bis views.
Before his logic, eloquence and
powerful reasoning no man can stand
and successfully oppose him.
He, with Hon. W. N. Spence, ad
dressed tbe people of Calhoun county,
as previously reported in the News
and Advertiser, and the enthusi
asm aroused was almost unbounded.
Notwithstanding the fact that an
active personal canvass, a contempti
ble “still hunt” was being made in
the county, the following resolutions
were adopted by a unanimous vote:
Resolved, That we fully endorse the
Democratic platform as inaugurated at
Chicago, and consider it broad enough
for'all true Democrats.
Resolved, That wo will support any
man for Congress wbo stands squarely
on this platform and is nominated
under its rules.
Resolved, That we repudiate all
OcalaiBm and Third partylsm, and
will nse all just means to defeat all
such, but we will ever be ready with
open arms to receive them back into
the fold of the only true Democracy.
Resolved. That we extend to Hon.
Hi G. Turner, the lion of the old Elev
enth, but still our present representa
tive In Congress, an invitation to visit
our £ county and district and visit bis
old constituents and use bis influence
In aiding this present campaign.
Resolved, That we find in Capt. Ben
E. Russell a standard-bearer worthy
the support of all true Democrats, and
tbat we endorse him as our candidate
for the Fifty-third Congress.
Those resolutions have the true ring
of Democracy, and shows that old Cal
houn will roll up with a strong Bussell
delegation when the Congressional
convention meets In Albany on August
17th. The party will have, when Ben
Russell Is nominated, a champion who
will be fully able to cope with the
Third party candidate and insures the
Second District of Democratic repre-
pentation In the next House of Repre
sentatives.
Get in tbe Russell bandwagon if
you do not want to get left.

Tile Larcwt Brice on Record for
melons.
Eight ordinary Kolb Gem melon?
'brought $25 In Albany yesterday.
This statement will probably cause
some melon growers to open wide
their eyes with astonishment foSitis
Shout the highest price on record;
But tbat was the price.'
It will be admitted that such figures
£re extremely high, especially in a
country where those melons grow in
such an endless profusion.
'A few nights ago Lee Edwards,*
colored Individual entered a car and
purloined therefrom eight melons. He
was detected and arrested, and yester
day he was carried before Jndge W.
T, Jones, of the County Court and
plead guilty to the charge of laroency
from a railroad car and was sentenced
by the court to pay a fine of $25 and
He claimed extreme hunger was his
reason for stealing the melons and
claimed that he found the car door
$pien.
He bat no doubt learned by this
time that the melons were a very cost
ly article of diet, exen for* very hun
gry man.
John Warren whodied in Buncombe
county, North Carolina, recently, is
claimed to have lived to be 102 years
old. He neVer saw a ’‘railroad traid
in his life, and declined to even look at
ope.”

LOVE COBBS LIKE A HIMITIEB

LOVE AND CASE.
He was poor, bat nervy, and she
was beautiful aud rich.
“Will you marry me?” he asked
plumply.
“Why,” she exclaimed, “how
abrupt you are. You won’t give me
time.”
“I can’t do it.” he snapped. “This
is a cash transaction.”
And so they were married and hap
pily to a good old age.
„ TEAT IB LOVE.
She—Do you think tbat you love me
well enough to marry me?
He—Well enough! Hy darling,
every atom In my being clamors for
words to tell yon how I love yon. Ob,
you do not know. I see bnt yonr face,
I hear but the sweet music of your
lips, I bang upon yonr smile and I
only ask tbat yon will be with me al
ways. How much did yon pay tor
tbat dress?

“Dearest of your sect,” he began,
when slie sternly interriipted him:
“I am not a denominational meeting
bouse, sir.”
He made another attempt.
“Darling, if I ever could be so
base—”
“Nor* base baU game,” she re
marked frigidly.
In he plunged boldly—faint heart
never won fair lady.
“My angel, do yon think yonr moth
er would consent—”
“I know she would,” she inter
rupted uan expressions; “go and ask
her. Yon have my blessing, for I’m
sore ypuM make a good stepfather.
BECAUSE 1 LOVE YOU.
“I cannot bring you wealth,” she
said;
“I cannot bring you fame or place
Among the noted of the race;
But I can love you.
“When trials come to test yon, sweet,
I con be snnlight to yonr feet;
My kiss your gracious Ups shall greet,
Because I love you.
“When daylight dies along tbe west,
You will come home to me for rest,
And I shall sleep upon yonr breast,
Because 1 lore you.
“If sickness comes beside your bed
I will bend low, with qniet tread,
And pray God’s blessings on yonr
head
Because I love you.
“As dew clings to the violet,
Making the fragrant chalice wet.
So my |ifc into yours is set.
Because I love you.
“Onlyrpyself, my all I bring,
But count it, sweet, a precious thing
To give my life an offering,
Because I love yon.
“I bow before no other shrine;
If I go firet across death’s line
I will return to claim you mine,
Because I love you.”

Mr. Piet, a rather diflldent man,
was unable to prevent himself being
introduced one evening to a fascinat
ing young lady, who, misunderstand
ing hie name, constantly addressed
him as Mr. Peters, much to the gen
tleman’s distress.
Finally, summoning courage, he
bashfully but earnestly remonstrated:
“Ob, don’t call me Peters—call me
Peet.”
“Ah, but I don’t know you well
enough,Mr, Peters,” said the young
lady, bashfully, as she playfully with
drew part way behind her fan.
Eternal Vigilance.

She Didn’t Bind A Little Thing
LUu That,
In a compartment of a train running
from Bologna to Florence, Italy, a
spark from the locomotive flew
through the open window on the gol
den hair of a" lady, setting it afire.
There was great consternation, none of
the company knowing what to do.
The afflicted lady waa the only person
that did not'lose her self-possession
for a moment. - She raised her hand to
her head, seized hold of the burning
hair, which a moment later had made
the journey thuorfgh the window into
the open air. Her splendid golden
hair had been auartificlal head-dress.
If dull, spiritless and stupid; U your
blood la thick and sluggish; if your
appetite is capricious aud uncertaiu,
you need a Sarsaparilla. For best re
sults take De Witt’s.
About 350 bears were killed iu Maine

BARBER AND DENTIST.
A CASE WHERE THE SHAVER
HAD THE BEST OF IT.
The Dentin *14 net Fellow bl«
Friends’ Advice end Clot Lift by Be
ing His Way.
Dr. Willis, an English resident of
Persia, was talking with the barber
who bad come a3 usual to shave and
shampoo him. “Why not do me the
honor to come just over to my shop?”
said the barber. “It would do you
harm,” answered Dr. Willis, “If the
people were to know that you shaved
an unbeliever.” “Not a bit of it,
sahib. I would shave tbe Evil One
himself if he were only open-handed;
and I should be respected for it, par
ticularly If”—with a chuckle—“I kept
tight hold on his nose.”
Hassan, the barber, had tight hold
of the Englishman’s nose at that mo
ment, and as he was just going over
tbe region above Adam’s apple with
hi> keen razor, there was no replying
to bis joke.
“You should see me draw teeth,
such teeth !”added the barber. “You,
doctor, who only draw the teeth of
Princes and gently, you have never
seen such teeth even In a dream.”
Here he drew his fingers dipped in
water over his, client’s cbio—they do
not lather in the east—^and added with
auction, “Such teeth—teeth with five
roots.”
; Dr. Wills conld not remonstrate, for
Hassan had him by the nose again, and
his razor was still plying in danger
ous places. The conversation ended
by the Englishman promisslpg to visit
the barber at his shop.
Hasson had no sooner gathered np
his traps and retired with dignity than
the servant of Dr .Win* began to ex
postulate.
“You won’t go, sir, of course,” he
began, aa he handed bis master a
towel.
“Won’t go?” Indeed I shall. Why
not, pray?”
“Ah, you sahibs are always taken
in. Don’t you see, sahib, why be
wants yon to come? He will say yon
have come to learn from him,”
The Englishman was amused, and
at tbe same time appointed he went to
Hassan’* shop, and was received with
exuberant welcome.”
“Your footsteps are on my eyes;
you are indeed welcome; yon honor
my poor establishment.”
The place was as ‘‘clean as a new
pin.” Vases of the Narcissus poeticus
filled with fragrance, and customers
were plentiful.
Heads were shaved; arms were bled;
a rheumatic sufferer lay-down and re
ceived three severe burns with a hot
iron, for which be seemed duly grate
ful; and finally Hassan “actually ex
tracted a part of a tooth—in three acts
of a prologue, with an Inter val of five
minutes alter each.”
At the eod a large piece came away.
“Ah,” said the triumphant barber*
“that was where the pain wa? I” and
tbe patient went out with his cheek in
his hand.
Dr. Wills soon followed, but was
hardly in bis own court-yard before
his servant entered, pale with raj^e.
“Sahib! Oh sahib!” he began. I
said it! I knew it! He has done it; I
knew he wonld! There he stands; the
rascal, explaining to the two merch
ants, your patients, that you—ah,
that I should live to see the day—tbat
you have come to him at your own re
quest to take a lesson in tooth-draw
ing 1”

“Is the coon a smart animal ?” asked
a stranger of old Si Jackson on Onion
Creek, near Austin, Texas.
“Talk.about owns bein’ smart, I
should say dey was smart.”
“Well, how smart ate they?”
“A coon played me the meanest
trick yon eber beered toll on. I foun’
a hole wbar de coon went Inter de
gonn’ and I waited dar all day long to
shoot dat coon, and when he did come
ont he was a polecat.

A couple of society ladles living on
Filth avenue were discussing a local
scandal, which was expeetedTto result
in a divorce salt, The ladles talked In
a very low tone of voioe to prevent the
ten-year-old daughter of one of them
trom hearing what was said* The in
cipient young lady finally spoke np:
“Talk out, ma! Speak louder ! I
won’t be able to understand what you
say, I am so young and most.”
If dull, shiritle8s and stupid: if your
alood Is thick and sluggish; if your
bppetlte is capricious and uncertain,

tae OLD PIANO.
The leaf of the banana is usually tlx
feet long by two feet wide. The dow
ser are pink.
How still and dusky in the long closed
room!
What lingering shadows and what
faint perfume
Of eastern treausures—saudal wood
aod scent
With nard and cassia and wljh roses
blent.
Let in the sunshine.
Quain cabinets are here, boxes and
fans,
And hoarded letters fall of hopes and
plans;
I pass them by. I came once more to
DCC
The old piano, dear to memory.
In past days mine.
Of all sad voices from forgotten year
Its Is the Baddest; see what tender
tears
Drop on the yellow keys as soft and
slow,
I play some melody of long ago.
How qtrange it seems 1
The thin, weak notes that once were
rich and strong
Give only now the shadow of a song—
The dying echo or the fuller strain
That I shall never, neTer hear again,
Unloss in dreams.
What hands have touched It! Fingers
small and white
Since stiff and weary with life’s toll
and fight;
Dear clinging hands that longjiave
been at rest,
Folded serenely on a quiet breast,
Only to think,
O white, sad notes, of all tbe pleasant
days,
The happy songs, the hymns of holy
praise,
The dreams of love and youth tbat
round you cling!
Do they not make each sighing, tremb
ling string
A mighty link?
All its musicians gone beyond recall,
The beautiful, the loyed. where are
they all?
Each told its secrets, tonebed its keys
and wires
To thoughts of many colors and desires
With whispering fingers,.
All are silent now, tbe farewell said,
The last song sung, the last tear sadly
shed;
Yet love has given it many dreams
to keep
In this Tone room where only shadows
creep* ..HQ
S ..And silence lingeri.
The old piano auswers to my call, t|B
And from my fingers IetiTtte lost
notes fall. _• ^ .
Oh soul that I have loved, with
heavenly birth
Wilt thou not keep the memory of
earth,
Its smiles and sighs ?
Shall wood and metal and white Ivory
Answer tbe touch of love jyiHi melody,
And then forget ? Dear one, 'not so.
I move thee yet (thongh how I may
not know)
Beyond the skies.
