Mr. C. W. Randall will be an ap-
plloantJor the Albany Postinastorship,
and has already procured the indorse
ment of a number of citizens. The
IlKRAi.n has been reliably informed
that Capt. Y. G. Rust, who held the
office under Mr. Cleveland’s adminis

place again, though he will not com

Have you noticed how good-natur
edly the Republicans have taken de
feat this time. Tile few that we have
in these parts, excepting, of course,
those who hold government positions,
don’t sepm to care. Indeed, a promin

long and consistent Republican was
heard to remark, the other day. that
perhaps the change the people had'
voted for would be for the best.
A prominent young man no longer
occupies his acoustomed scat on a box
in a Washington street hall way. He
used to sit there by hours devoting
himself to studies of human nature, as
characters of all sorts passed him
by. Indeed lie had acquired a reputa
tion ns a deep thinker from his appar
ent habits of reverie and thought. But
some designing wag came along and
wrote on his box Jji Inrgoblaok letters,
“Eternal rest,” arid now our erstwhile
philosopher stands and is already
wearing a more vigorous and robust
air.
Amonq Georgians who are mention
ed for prominent offices under the
coming administration are Hon. James
II. Blount, of Macon, and Qon. Henry
G. Turner, of Qultmnn. Mr. Blount
has been mentioned for a prominent
foreign mission, while Mr. Turner
will probably come in for nssistnnt
Attorney-General. Mr. Hoke Smith
has been spoken of as a cabinet prob
ability; but it is more than likely that
all the portfolios will go to those States
which before the election were con
sidered doubtful, but which gave their
electoral vote to Cleveland.

week for a nomination on tho open

The Herald knows a man who was
caught six miles and n half from home
by the beating rain that set in at
about 1 o’clock Monday. His buggy
was an open one, and he had neither an
umbrella nor water-proof wraps. He
reached home in the hardest of the
rain as wet as water could make him
and thoroughly chilled. Nor did hiB
troubles and misfortunes end here,
The hired man had gone off, and the
wet home-comer had to unharness the
horse and put away the buggy and
harness. Nor was this all. At the
back door, just as he got the first
glimpse of a glowing Are, he was met
by a little woman, and the cheerful
welcome that Boated out that back
door upon the damp, chilly air as he
caught a glance of the “God-bless-our-
Home” motto in the hallway was,
“Ougb-ee! Don’t come in here with

Salvation Army Woman.
Tho mother of the Salvation Army
was the wife of General Booth. She
died several years ago. Four of her
daughters nnd two daughters-in-law
are aotivo in the work. Kitty, tho
eldest child, now a marshal and the
wife of Mr. Clibborn, has developed
tho unny in Switzerland and Franco.
Emma, now Mrs. Tucker, hns found
her field in India. Eva and Lucy,
both still young, promise in time to
rival their elder sisters in usefulness.
Mrs. Maud Bnllington Booth is the
daughter of a clergyman, and was
treated with great disfavor by her
family when she first enlisted in this
work. For a time she. served in
Switzerland, and was subjected to
much persecution.
As the wife of General Booth’s sec
ond son and director of much of the
army work in the United States, she
is widely and favorably known in
this country. Mrs Bromwell Booth
is the wife of the general’s oldest
son. Before marriage she was a
Miss Soper. Her great work has
been the foundation of “rescue
libmes," which are the most success
ful establishments of the kind ever
started in Great Britain. She is a
woman of fine linguistio and literary
accomplishments.—London Letter.
An Excellent Idea.
“Keep close to mo," a mother was
overheard to say on a ferryboat
Wednesday to her two children of
apparently nine and twelve. “If,
however,” she went on, “wo should
get separated at any time today,
don't get frightened. Both of you
have money; get a policeman to help
you through tho crowd and start you
for this ferry. Then take the cars
home. Ask your way often, and
though tho experience may not bo
pleasant you will come out all right."
This struck a listener as very sensi
ble. Children at all grown should
have possible emergencies of this
sort suggested and arranged for, in
stead of, as is often the case, being
taught to consider that to be alone
in the city’s streets is a hopeless and
alarming strait.—Her Point of View
in New York Times.

. Just as the ships were going into
action the mate of the Lawrence
Said to Wilson Mays, who was ill and

“Go below, Mays; yon are too

"I can do something,*sir," was tho
stout reply.
"What can you dot"

let a strong man go to the gunB.”
Then ho sat down by the pump,

Proving the Convexity of the Earth.
An experiment was mode a hun
dred years ago or so on the Bridge-
water oanal in England to prove tho
convexity of the earth. At intervals
of five miles in a straight strotcli of
the canal three posts were driven
until their tojis wore precisely six
feet libovo the surfiico of the water.
Then careful measurements and ob
servations were made from either
end. with the result thnt tho top of
tho wgiter post wr.s found to be some
riistalibo above u line drawn from top
to top of tho first and Inst posts.
Tho experiments were repented a
number of times, always with tho
Bit riio result. Tills proves for ordi
nary persons that tlio enrtli is con
vex. but scientists reached the same
conclusions by more scientific ways.

The Roae In Britain.
The first cultivated roso is Bald to
have been planted in Britain A. D.
1522. The damask roso was brought
from France in 1578, the moss rose
about 1724, and the China rose some
fifty years after. Wild roses are,
however, natives of all parts of Brit
ain. In Withering’s "British Botany"
only five distinct species are said to
be indigenous, but in Hooker's and
Arnott’s "British Flora" nineteen
species are mentioned, and some
writers on botany raise the number
rs high as twenty-four.'—Detroit Free

B«ward«4 by the Queen*
Queen Victoria, when a girl, was
passionately fond of climbing walls
and trees. One day at Malvern she
climbed a tall apple tree, and was
unable to get down. A young man
named Duvis, a gardener, was at
tracted by her cries, got a ladder
and brought her down in safety.
Deeply grateful, she opened her
purse, and presented him with a
guinea. Davis nicely framed it, and
ever since has been proud to tell the
tale and show the piece of gold that
the queen gave him so many years
ago.—London Tit-Bits.
