Next Thursday is Thanksgiving day and nearly everybody hns made arrangements to go hunting. Look out that you don’t shoot any two-leg ged game of the human species. Rev. Dr. Henry P.

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.

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 ent Republican who is now out of pol itics but hns, nevertheless been a life 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. •BNATOR ALFREO II.

This mass-meet ing was called for Monday night,but the masses didn’t respond, and the few who composed the meeting adopted some resolutions beginning with, “We, the citizens of Albany, in mass-meet ing assembled,” declaring in favor of nominations for Mayor and Council- men in the future, but nbnndoning the undertaking for the present campaign —“leaving the Held open to any other ticket to announce that may desire, besides the one already announced.’ Try Hot Chocolate and Cream with Cake at Ed.

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!

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. of Lake Erie-^a sentence terse and yet glowing—"We havo met the enemy, and they are ours.” Every one remembers the great and significant result of the fight, but few perhaps have heard of one humble worker who served his coun try just as truly there as if he hod been on deck amid shot and shell, earning glory ns well os the reward of a good conscience. . Just as the ships were going into action the mate of the Lawrence Said to Wilson Mays, who was ill and unfit for sendee: “Go below, Mays; yon are too weak to bo here.” "I can do something,*sir," was tho stout reply. "What can you dot" “I can sound the pump, sir, and let a strong man go to the gunB.” Then ho sat down by the pump, and thus released for active service a man who had more muscle, and when the fight was over there he was found with a bullet through his heart.—Youth’s Companion. 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. Besides, if the earth is concave, what becomes of the sun at night?—Now York Sun. 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 Press.

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.
