He looked up from the business engaging hlln, and presuming It was some one of the' many amendments ofTered to load down hls aubstltute, replied “No." He looked pussled at tho shout, of laughter that followed, and leaned over to ask some one what It was all about Finding out he arose and aald: "Mr. President, I voted under a mis apprehension, and, therefore, beg to change my vote.

While he was In the chamber the disorder was at Its height, though the member from Bibb was as quiet as could be. While President West waa beating a tattoo trying to bring order out of the chaos, Senator Bennet sneaked across the aisle and suggested that maybe Mr. Hall's presence had something to do with It. , Whereupon the Bibb msn shambled out of the room.

The city having the smallest land area was Ho boken. with 825 acres. It is remarked that there Is often great disproportion between the area covered by a city and tho number of Inhabitants. Duluth, with 62,000 Inhabitants, takes In more territory than St. Louis, with Its 624, 000. Salt Lake City, with a popula tlon 6,000'less than Hoboken, Included an area thirty-five times /is great.

Washington, Aug. 8.—Representa tive fL J. Bowere, of the Sixth Mla- elMlppI district, chairman of the cam paign committee of the Democratic congressional committee, has returned to Washington. , “Basing my opinion upon the knowl edge of the work that Is being done by the congreeelonal committee,” eald Mr. Bowers at the Ebbltt House, "I predict the election of a Democratic house In the sixtieth congress.

Thomasvllle, Ga, Aug. 8.—The polit leal altuatlon Is very discouraging to ths anti-Hoke men here because of the'fact that they were slow to get In the light and thus let the Hokeltes, under the leadership of the strenuous Dr. McIntosh, take the field boots, bag gage and nil, before an effort was made to counteract the Smith boom. But notwithstanding all this, there Is one real hope that nobody but Smith men feel assured will hot fall them when the crucial time comes, that there Is one oasIS ’in tho political desert In which the antl-Hokeltes ex pect to water thetr caravans and rest thdr tired feet when'the vote Is count, ed on the lid. The very strong reason Is not based on any visible weakening of the Smith forces, but It Is born of the old adago that history repeats Itself. There llrea In this city a prophet by the name of Atkinson. How long he •en prophesying passeth collection of the oTdaet Inhabitant. There le a tradition told of him that before the Ochlocknee river washed Its crooked way and drifted Its snow- white sand through Thomas county, this prophet said this rlvsr would never wash Its ugly gully • through Thomas county. But this prophet'a specialty la politics. "Unde Lum/' ae he le fa. mlllarly called, has a copyright upoi political future telllnge. He ha prophesied the results years and months In advance, and the way they have come to pass la what la doing the Howellltes and Estlllltea so much good at present. "Uncle Lum” Is an ardent Ilokelte, and ever since the race began he has been prophesying that Hoke would aweep the deck clean. Morning, noon and evening ha propheslea that Hoke will carry 140 counties In Georgia and ' in the adjoining states. As stated the outset, this prophesy Is a foun dation for the belief of the anti-Hoke men that by some way now unseen their bright hopea will be blasted and Instead of saving the state, he can only look with longing eyes toward the mansion and gently chant: "That Is the place I long have sought, and mourned, because 1 have It not.” The well-informed Howell and Estltl men need not trace "Uncle hum’s" prophesy back very far to lose him In the mist and shadows of the float. The voters of this generation remember how he roretold McKinley’s Waterloo and Bryan's victory In 11*4, also how hs repeated It In 1100. Then they remem ber how he dlacuased and abused Parker, yet prophesied hls success. The boys who do not Ilka Hoke take encouragement from "Uncle Bum’s" prophesy along this line, for they re member how he made the air quiver when the election for city schools was up. and how he said It would never pass, but It did; and then they re member how he opposed city bonds for nothing. He rarely has a corporal's guard with him when the count takes place. They-also remember how he prophesied the defeat of the prohibi tion cause In this county In 1191, and yel It carried, with over 400 votes to spare. Notwithstanding this setback, hls prophetic vtslon was still undlmmed four years later, when he again prophesied the defeat of the prohibi tionists. That "Uncle Bum's" political Tuesday to allow house bills to.be placed on their paopage. It was 1:10 o'clock when the kibosh was put to the tax assessor measure, whereupon Senator Brick Miller moved adjourn ment, and It carried with a whoop. Ap parently everybody had forgotten the purpose for which the session had been extended. T. J. Simmons, formerly a well- known Atlanta newspaper man, but now news editor and part owner of The Macon News, spent Tuesday In At- lanta, and had a look In at hls host of, friends at the capitol. Since Mr. Sim mons went to Macon he has made The News one ef the best afternoon papers in the state. No man In the business has a keener sense of news values or finer capacity for getting and printing I It first. Congressman Charlie Adamson, of the Fourth district, spent Tueeday In Atlanta and called on Governor Ter- relL prophesy wilt again repeat Iteaelf the opponents of Hoke firmly believe, for seeing that they are compassed about by such a great cloud of prophecies that never come to paaa, they are en couraged to fight Hoke to a atandstll on the day of the primary.
