Drutscrnla Called Upaa 1a Scad Trae and Tried Urn lo Ike Ceaprenf ieaal Ceareallea. TIIltBE STORIES. The Dougherty County Deinocratlo Club had a lively meeting at the Court House last night. The principal object of the meeting was to talk over the situation in the Second Congressional district. This was done, and some ringing speeohes were made. Several Alllancemen were present, and when the Alliance was assailed by some of the speakers that organization was not without defenders. When this meeting of the club was called it was thought that a new Con gressional candidate would be in the field whom the club would want to in dorse, but the expected candidate was not forthcoming, and the evening was spent In speech making. The debate between those who stood for the action eff the Democratic Ex ecutive Committee at its last meeting held in this city and the Alliance was lively, but there was no bad blood shown. The following resolution, offered by Capt. Hobbs, was unanimously adopted, after which the meeting adjourned: Resolved, That the President and Secretary of this club are directed to prepare an address to the organized Democracy of this Congressional dis trict to thoroughly canvass their sev eral counties, and tosecureat the meet ings and primaries to be held on SOtli July next good and true men, Demo- cats of undoubted standing, to rep resent their counties at the convention to be held here on the 17th of August next, when a Demoorat, true and tried, will be selected by them to carry the banner of Democracy to Washington, the home of our Fathers. Dougherty will do her duty. There is no excuse for newspaper exaggeration anil falsification when the simple truth would do as well. WiTniN the last three years 5,000 people have lost their lives in Penn sylvania througii Imperfect dams. The only deaf inute military com pany in the world is now the leading attraction at the Illinois Institute for Deaf Mutes at Jacksonville, III. The work performed by this silent com- pany is simply wonderful. Their leader is neither deaf nor mute, and he has invented a code of signs representing the orders given in the marching, drill, and mnimal of arms. The cadets never turn tlielr heads, but maintain a true soldierly bearing, and when any of them are so situated that they can’t see the Captain, the order Is repented quick as a final). Havikq secured the abolition of dance music on Sunday in the public parks nnd the closing of art galleries on that day of rest, the London cru saders against vice have undertaken to suppress betting in all its forms. A bill looking to that end is actually be fore Parliament, with debnte Immi nent. Many people believe that almost anything can be accomplished by means of statutory enactments; but the Philadelphia Record remarks that this proposed law would be a gen uine curiosity in moral reform if by any chance it should get on the statute books of the United Kingdom. Through ail ages and in all lands attempts have been repeatedly made to put down the spirit that lends men lo take chances of loss or gain for amusement; but without success. The London de votees of morality pure and undeflled piny have better luck. A percussion match lylpg on the walk in the streets of a Northern oity, the olick of the heel of a dainty shoe upon it, the trailing of a silken skirt over it, and the result—a fair form lying blackened and burned almost be yond recognition. Such is the tale of somebody’s carelessness, or the result of some boy’s mlschevous scattering of percussion matohes on the walk to see the start and fright of the person who ignites one by stepping on it. Women are surely, if gradually, forging to the front in journalistic circles in Georgia. The newspapers of the State find employment for a large corps of female writers, many of whom are gaining distinction by the pen, Aside from these, there are three pa- pers in Georgia which are edited under the iolnt management of husband and wife—the Columbus Evening Ledger, controlled and edited by Mr. and Mrs, Byington; the Americus Recorder, edited by Mr, and Mrs. Bascom My, rick, and the Wavcross Herald, of which Mr. and Mrs. H. W. Reid are proprietors and editors. The Carnes- ville Tribune has a young lady at the helm—Miss Ellen Dortch, owner and editress, and Mrs. Loll.ie Belle Wylie was, a short time ago, proprietress and editress of “Society,” published in At lanta. Facia. The population of the United States increases by 1,000,000 persons yearly. In proportion to its size England has eight times bb many miles oi rail- ' ways as the United States. The theaters in London regularly employ over 12,000 people. Queen Victoria's chief cook receives $8^00 a year. St. Petersburg is the coldest capital in Europe. It Is the fashion now to speak of “optimists” and “pessimists.” The dis tinction Itself, says Youth’s Com panion, is nothing new, as there have nlways been two olasses of people— those who look on the bright side of things, and those who look on the dark side—but the words have no doubt puzzled some readers. One man, a learned farmer, we may suppose, defines an optimist as a per son who believes that all eggs will hatch. An exohange reports a dia logue overheard in a barber shop: “Do you ever study the faces of the customers here?” said one man. “Yes,” “Well, did you ever try to distln- f ruisli the pessimistic from the optim- stlof” “Yes; and there is little difficulty in doing It.” “Indeed!’’ “Yes; the pessimist is the man who is waiting for six other customers to be shaved, and the optimist Is the one distinguished by the appellation of ‘next.’’’ lu OrI|la. Any one who thinks that the Eng lish language is musical nnd easy to be pronounced because it is the one to which his ear and tongue are most no- customed, and who hears, when Ger man is pronounced, only its harshness and Its gutturuls, will appreciate the Rev. Mr. Spurgeon’s account of the origin of Germnn. “Do you know,” asked he of a friend, one day, “how the German language originated?” “No,” was the reply. “Well," said the preacher, “1 do. There were two workmen at the Tower of Babel, one standing above the other. The uppermost one accidentally threw some mortar from his trowel into the mouth of the lower one, and he began to Bputter with the mortar in his inoiith. The sound is now known as German 1” ••Ba B* Bn Bb." In the Chlneso language the same word may be given several different meanings by the modulation of the voioe. The same thing may happen to the English “yes,” wliloh may be pro nounced so as to mean “I assent to that." or “I am doubtful,” or “Indeed I" Prof. Max Muller, In his “Leotures on tlie Science of Language,” gives an amusing illustration of these modula tions in the Annamitio language, a monosyllable tongue spoken by the people of Tonquin and Cochin China. In this language the syllable “ba” pronounced with a grave accent, means a lady, an ancestor. Pronounced with the sharp accent, it means the favorite of a prince. Pronounced with the semi-grata accent, it means what has been thrown away. Pronounced with the grave circumflex, It means what is left of a fruit after the juice has been squeezed out. Pronounced with no accent, it means three. Pronounced with the ascending or Interrogation aocent, it means a box on the ear. Thus “Ba ba ba ba” is said to mean, If properly pronounced, “Three Indies [ave a box on the ear to the favorite of lie prince^] Clark Howell, of the Atlanta Con stitution, and Hoke Smith, of the Jour nal, were rival candidates for the honor of representing Georgia on the National Democratic Committee for the next four years. The delegation to the national convention makes the selection, nnd on Monday morning Clark Ilowell was elected. Now Mr. Smith claims that lie withdrew from the raoe and let Mr. Howell get the honor to “conciliate" him and other anti-Cleveland men on the Georgia delegation; but the Constitution of yesterday prints a long story about it sent by its “special Chlcngo wire,” and tlie special is headed, “Iloke Smith’s Fall—Clark Howell Runs Him Out of the Race.” According to the Consti tution’s special, Smith saw that he was beaten nnd then withdrew, living Howell a walk-over; while Smith gave out an interview to the Associated Press in wliloh be makes It appear that he could have had the place but gave it to Howell tooonolllate him. It mat ters not which one of these stories is the correct one—presuming that both of them oan't be entirely correct—one disgusting faot is very apparent, and that is that the rivalry between the Constitution and the Journal has been carried to such an extent that a petty jealousy between the managing editor of the one and the chief of the other has forced itself to the front at a time and under circumstances that—well, it looks bad in company. HENRY WATTBRNON CREATES A SUMMATION. Hs Om Bed Last Night Agnln.i Clerelnad. Chicago Telegram to the Atlanta Constitution. Chicago, June 21.—Henry Watter- son is a source of many surprises, and to-day was not permitted to pass with out a Wattersonian sensation. When the Kentuoky delegation as sembled this morning they were in formed by the brilliant Kentuckian that he must deollne absolutely to serve as Kentucky’s representative on the committee on resolutions and pint- form, and so another man, James Mc Kenzie, was named for the plnce. Watterson, when approached by an Associated Press reporter for an ex planation of his notion, made the fol lowing exptnnntion: “I have for some time regarded the nomination of Cleveland as assured. If he is nominated, he and his ante cedents will be a platform in them selves. His annual message of 1887 in the matter of the tariff, his silver letter of 1891, with his many utterances upon the anti-coinage side of the silver con troversy, will constitute In reality the Issues on which the campaign will have to be fought out to square the ticket with his record, and make the situation logical. “But with iny well known opposi tion to the nomination of Cleveland, If I should go upon the platform com mittee and urge such a course, I should be at once characterized by the free- coinage Cleveland men with the pur pose to make trouble by my extremism, while, on the other hand, if I should propose n free-coinage plank or strad die, .1 should be onarged by Cleve land’s Eastern supporters with the purpose to handicap his eleotlon in advance. Taking either horn of tlie dilemma I should be suspected and distrusted In the beginning, to be made in the end, in the event of disas ter, answerable for a result I am pow erless to Influence or control. In other words, I should be required to nssume rave responsibilities without the con dense and support of the gentlemen immediately back of Cleveland. I felt myself under no obligations to take any false position, anu so I refused to.” I.EPRONY. A Norwegian by the name of Ed. Also‘n, died at Northfleld, Minn., on Friday last of old-fashioned leprosy. The papers say that the oorpse was a most horrible sight, the flesh all drop ping off the bones. Alson had been hardware merohant in Northfleld for over 20 years. To read of a death from leprosy in the midst of a community in one's own oountry Is shocking. And the loathsome disease must have been eommunloated toothers in that oommu nity for it is communicated so eaiily. The slow but steady spread iff leprosy is fearful to contemplate and the com munity that finds a leper in its midst and does not at once shut off the vic tim of the disease from all contact with his fellow men is guilty of n most hid eous orimo. ABB THEY UBABYt UNDERSTOOD POLITICAL ECONOMY. | 'WINNING' A WIDOW. It T«kN » Woman to Sehsms,” 8h« Sold* M Sh« Hoard Dim Snore. When Fitaboodle came home that night he sunk into a chair and said: “Maria, I have lost my job.” “Is it possible?" exclaimed the woman. “It is, Maria, and with only ten dol lars in cash things look pretty black.” Yes," said the woman vaguely. It is the ten dollars I gave you this morning, Maria; you know I told yon at the time it was all I had In the world. You are so good to me. Maria; you keep my money so well." “Yes,” she said feebly. “I feel dreadful," he went on. “Do you know, as I passed the grocer’s he glared at me liko mad. We owe him thirteen dollars, and hare promised to settle eleven times now." "Oh, that’s all right," said the woman, brightening. "Why, whoa I was in there at 5 o'clock he smiled and was so pleasant sugar wouldn't melt in his mouth. He told me to order a big bill of goods at auy time." "You are crazy, Marini And then the doctor. Why, I ran plump into him as I turned the corner; he shot me a savage liglk as much as to say, ‘Humph, I think it is about time you cashed upt' Mavis. I am a ruined man!" “Oh, no, Charlie. Why, when I met the dootor on the avenue at 8 o'clock he bowed like a prince and oame over and shook my hand and said I never looked more charming in my life. I am sure we can stand him off another three months." “You are clean mad, Maria. And then the landlord. How he snapped his teeth as I passed him in the hall leading to this fiat only a few moments ago.” “Why, if you mean dear Mr. Trotter, the owner of the property, why, my dear fellow, he is as sweet and good as you could wish. Why, this afterhoon he came in and said he would get us new curtains, fix up the cellar, repaper the halls and fix tho plumbing in the kitchen. We can hold him off half the summer, I believe." “You are clean crazy, woman! I never heard of such a thing. Give me that ten dollars till I go down and give half to the grocer and half'— “I—I haven't it!" “What?" i “I-I spent it." “Spent it? How dare yon? And the lost money I had in this world.” “Oh, oheer up, Charlie. I took the ten dollars and bought that lovely new hat you promised me. I wore it out on the avenue all afternoon. Everybody who saw me saidi ‘My stars! why, old Fitaboodle must be making lota of cash, for U there isn't bis wife all togged out in tho latest millinery, with gloves to matohl’ The effeot was like a charm, Charlie. I knew you had lost your i, and I did it as an act of polioy. ien I called on the tradespeople they all noted the same as the people on the avenue. Now go to bed, dear, and never again say I do not know all' about po litical economy P "Never,” he said, falling into Mr arms. “Oh, it takes a woman to scheme!” she ejaculated, as she heard him snoring half on hour later.—New York Recorder. The total Inoome of the Church of England is about $1,000,000 a week. Chicago now has on exhibition a cycloramio view of the Chioago fire. She was bound to get that fire on ex hibition, somehow, someway, for the World’s Fair. Adamston, Va., toasts of a sure enough haunted house, and the town is considerably exercised over the presence, or supposed presence, of un earthly visitors. The house has been unoccupied for years, but every night it is brilliantly lighted from top to bottom and sounds of violin and banjo music and of dancing feet are plainly heard. Doubtless the papers, ere long, will chronicle the capture of a gang of desperadoes in the vicinity of Adams ton. At 11 o'clock Monday night all the anti-Cleveland people at Chicago ex cept the Tammanyites had acknowl edged their defeat. Such men as Car lisle, Brice and Gorman said they con sidered the contest, at an end, but Lieut.-Gov. Sbeban, of New York, said: “These other people may have given it up, but New York has not and will not. I believe we can defeat Mr. Cleveland yet. We will manage the campaign now and you will see some developments to-morrow.” From tho Atlanta Herald.' It really looks like some of the Third Party advocates have lost their heads. The party in convention at St. Louis adopted as a plank In the platform the following: We demand that the government Issue legal tender notes and pay Union soldiers the difference between the price of the depredated money in which he was paid and gold. This would be an infamous back-pay steal, and its adoption, praotloally without protest, shows a total lack of manhood on the part of the Southern delegates who were at the convention. But see this: Tamely submitting to aproposltlon like the above the Southern advocates turn and smite their own comrades, thinking, no doubt, to pleaso the Northwestern Third Fartyites. .The Thomasville Times prints the fallowing resolution passed by the People’s Party at Moultrie: Resolved, That we condemn the res olution introduced by Gen. John B. Gordon at the United Confederate Veterans’ Association, held at New Orleans, memorializing the fifteen Southern States to pass laws to appro- S riate $500 eaoh as a pension to Mrs. efferson Davis, which Is an act of in justice to the over burdened tax pay ers of the South. It seems incredible that Southern men could utter such a fling at the widow of Jefferson Davis and at the same time be silent in the face of the pension plank of the St. Louis plat form. He la Trn Smart far Them. The little yellow flee, well known In Albany as the policemen's dog, seems to bear a charmed life. Said a well known officer to a reporter of the Her ald the other day: “Our little yellow flee dog has got sense just like folks. A number of times persons have tried to shoot, cut and poison him, but he’s still in the ring. One person shot him sure enough, but he got over it in a short while. And now they are trying to poison him, and there is no telling how many dogs have been killed by prepared food intended for our little flee. Some one threw a piece of meat in the yard to him the other day, but he just smelled it, cocked up one ear and walked off. “They’ll keep on, but mark me, he is too smart to eat any poisoned grub.” A Strange Animal. A useful South American animal is the kinkajou, which, as the dictionary will tell you, is a prooyonlform quad ruped with a protnislle tongue and a prehensile tail. Under ordinary circum stances if you ware to meet a kinkajou in the street you would look for on Ital ian with a hand organ, though I should be inclined to look for a policeman, be cause I know how unpleasant tba ani mal can be, particularly in the fruit season, for the kinkajou loves fruit and eats all he can find. The chief roe for asserting that the kinkajou is useful is that in addition to his fondness for fruit he has a great liking for insects for lunoh, and when tamed is a valuable assistance in southern homes, where fly paper is unknown and where a mosquito net is more expensive than a silk dices. It has always seemed strange to me that some enterprising person hss not imported a few thousand of thcae Insect eaten from South America for use hi North American summer hotels. They could not coat more than $100 a dozen, and many people wonld rather pay that amount than spend the night with a swarm of mosquitoes and unprovided with means of defense against them.— Harper's Young People. A Competent Teaohsr. The London Times once contained an advertisement for an assistant "capable of teaching the classics as far as Homer and Virgil.” Among the answers re ceived was this delightful speebnen: “Sir—With reference to the advertise ment which was inserted in The Times newspaper a few days since respecting a Bchotfc assistant, I beg to state that I should he happy to fill that situation; but as most of my friends reside in Lou don, and not knowing how far Homer and Virgil is from town, I beg to state that I should not like to engage to teach the classics farther than Hammersmith or Turaham Green, or at the very ut most distance farther than Brentford Awaiting your reply, I am sir, etc." The HlfhlMl Pipers. The Highland pipers have always been noted for bravery in notion. At Porto Novo the Seventy-first's piper played with euch good will that Sir Eyre Coots called out, "Well done, my brave fel low; you shall have a pair of silver pipes for thisl” At Vlmiero a piper unable to walk coolly sat down and played, “Up and war them a', Willie,” for which the Highland society afterward presented him with a set of pipes.—CorahiU Maga zine.

EVERYBODY WAS AT THE WEDDING EXCEPT MISS BECKETT. A Story of » Village Courtship from In diana—Tha Wedding Kxclted a Deal of Interest Baeaufte the Groom Was an Uadartakor* Who Had Burled Many. Undertaker Samuel Pavey and Mrs. Sarah Milliken, who has been known In Aristotle, Ind., for twenty-five years as Achilles or Kill Milliken's widow, were married rocently in the presence of everybody in this village except old Miss Beckett. Miss-Beokett would have been present if she had not loft her sick bed last week to call on Mrs. Milliken and inquire into the particulars of the engagement. After this imprudence Bhe hod a rolapse and has been unable to leave her bed. She was propped up at the window all the afternoon, however, and saw everybody that went in or out of church. Undertaker Pavey has buried all of the dead here for tho poet sixty years. He is now a tall, thin man, with close cropped white hair and smooth shaven face, and always dresses in black, as be comes an nndortaker. Only the oldest oitiiens can remember when he looked any different from the way he looks now. His wife died forty years ago, and he has kept ehy of all maidens and widows ever since. Years ago ho was abandoned by the moat pereietent match makers as a hopeless caso. The widow of Kill Milliken is an esti mable lady, a great maker of cakes for theohurch festivals and clover at oro- chetlng worsted tidies, with a large somber of whioh the chairs and the sofa in her front parlor are adorned. As there has been a good deal of curiosity about her engagement and marriage, (he hoe consented to a pnbllo statement. She is a short, fat woman, with hair of a peculiar shade of yellow, whioh she got by using the hair dye which was ad vertised extensively in connection with her picture and letter of recommenda tion. She says that Mr. Pavey had never shown any eigne of preference for her whatever, nor had she thought of him oa the successor of Kill until ten days before the marriage. .About that time be knocked at her front door at half past 11 in the morn ing. It woe a Wednesday and the ldow Milliken was deep in the dongh, as that is baking day through this whole town. Bhe looked out through the blinds of the window next the front door and saw who it was. As she had known Mr. Pavey so many years she ust wiped the flour off her hands upon ier apron and opened the door. Mr. Pavey went Into the parlor and sat down in the caneseat rocker with the green wonted tidy with bine rib- hone through it. He set his t*U hst carefully on the floor beside him and then laid: “Good morning, Sarah Milliken.” “Good morning, Mr. Pavey,” laid Mre. Milliken. She .said that she accented the Mr. so that. Mr. Pavey might under stand that ehe had noticed his not call ing her Mrs. Milliken, as he was accus tomed to do. Mn. Milliken also says that she bad a sort of premonition that something was coming. “It can't be that the Gompen girl is dead?" she said anxiously. ' “No,” said Mr. Pavey. "Bat life is uncertain, Sarah Milliken,” “No one shottid know that better than you, Samnel Pavey,” said the widow with one of her ely laughs. Bnt Mr. Pavey did not langh as he went on: “Sarah, yon are getting along in years. Yon will soon he in need of my services.” “1 haven’t even sent for the dootor yet, and I won't need yon till he's done with me,” said the wtdow, bridling and poating. “Do yon remember the first Mrs. Pavey?" said the undertaker, paying no attention to her and punning his own gloomy reflections. “I was a little girl when she died,' ■aid Mrs, Milliken. "Yes," said Mr. Pavey, "yon had jast married the late Mr. Milliken five years before.
