Some Famooi Retort* Made Dorlag
the Heat of Debate.
One of the moat famous of Reed’s re
torts was made at the expense of
Springer of Illinois. The “Maine giant”
had just read one of Springer’s own
speeches iu refutation of the latter’s
argument just concluded. The Illi
noisan launched Into philosophy upon
the privilege of progressive thinkers to
change their opinions.
“I honor them for It,” he continued.
"An honest man is the noblest work of
God. As for me, Mr. Chairman, In the
words of nn eminent American states
man, ‘I would rather be right than be
president.’ ”
"The gentleman from Illinois needn't
worry, Mr. Chairman,” drawled Reed.
“He’ll never be either!”
During the bitter flglit against "Reed
rules” the bouse was thrown Into con
vulsions by General Splnola, who,
pointing to the painting of the “Siege
of Yorktown” hanging In the hall,
gravely accused Speaker Rood of count
ing the Hessians in the background of
the picture in order to make up u quo
rum.
The general always wore a tremen
dously high collar, so high, In fact, that
Representative Tim Campbell tapped
it one day with the fertile of Ills cane
and inquired, to the amusement of the
house, “Is General Spinola within?”
During the famous deadlock fight in
the house over the civil rights hill Gen
eral Ren Butler favored a Sunday ses
sion.
“Rad as I am, I have some respect
for God's day,” replied Sam Randall of
Pennsylvania.
“Don’t the Bible say that It, is lawful
to pull your ox or ass out of a pit on
the Sabbath?” asked Butler. "You
have thirty-seven asses on your side of
the house, and I want to get them out
of this ditch tomorrow. I think I nm
engaged in holy work.”
‘Tipn’t do it,” replied Randall. “I
expect srfnt« s day to see you in a hotter

HON. HARVIE JORDAN.
Will address the people of Hancock
and adjourning counties at the court
house in Sparta, Georgia, on Wednes
day, July 4, 1906, at 12 o’clock.
At a recent meeting of the Hancock
County Division of the Southern Cotton
Association President Walker was
authorized to invito President Jordan
and it will be gratifying to the many
friends and admirers of this distinguish
ed worker for the south to know that he
lias accepted the invitation extended
by the Hancock County Division to
address the people of Sparta on Inde
pendence Day. Mr. Jordan has invi
tations from over 100 places in the
South to address the people on July
41li, but feeliug that the farmers and
business men of Hancock had so loyally
supported him and the S. C. A., lie
decided that lie ought to show Hancock
the preference.
As President of the Southern Cotton
Ass’n. Mr. Jordan lias won a high place
in the esteem of everv farmer in the
South, as well as the business men and
all patriotic citizens,' and tie is in great
demand everywhere as a speaker. He
will have much to say to the farmers
regarding the If) cent cotton move and
the recent attempt on the part of the
government to “doctor” the figures as
to acerage; also plans relating to the
sale of the crop of 19<)(i, and every farm
er should be iu Sparta to hear him.
A great treat is in store for the people
on that day, for in addition to the ad-1
dress of President Jordan, the Sparta 1
Rides will appear for the first time in 1
full dress uniform and will act as escort
to President Jordan. The ladies of
Sparta will be in charge of the refresh
ments, decorations, etc., for the day,
and it is a foregone conclusion that the
day will be a memorable one in the
history of Sparta and Hancock county.
There will be a Prize Drill partieipat-

OUR SUPERB ASSORTMENT OF
BERLIN 13 MACHINE MADE.
Knuiixh Wrilrr Cnllx II Stltr, Itluld
nml Ret-tllina-iir.
Was B ‘Win made last year or the
year before? It is inqiussihlc to say
from looking at it. Some of the trees
iu the streets look at least ten years
old, luit they must have been planted
long before the city was thought of.
The houses and the streets and the
lampposts and the statues are all much
too neat and new to have endured the
rains of more than one winter. It is
all, in fact, quite loo new to be com
fortable. One feels afraid to sleep in
itnv of tile houses lest rheumatism
should lie lying in wait in rooms where
the plaster has not had time to harden.
I drove from the station in a “drosh-
ki” with a monstrously old horse. Time
had bent his forelegs Into a very good
imitation of a switchback railway, and
as we plodded solemnly along the
brand new asphalt roadway, with the
brand new houses on either side and
an occasional brand hew electric car,
with n liraud new driver in a brand
new uniform, I found myself wonder
ing what the old horse must think of it
all. One day he may have lava (.raring
in an open field, and when lie passed
that way a week or so later lie found a
new broad boulevard, with hotels and
shops and churches and great blocks of
fiats, all sprung up like mushrooms.
Berlin, then, is a great deal too per
fect to he satisfactory. It is the ma
chine made, not the hand made, article
-—it was very decidedly made, not
born. There is no spontaneity in it. no
life. Compared to, say, London, it is
like a beautiful marble statue to a liv
ing woman.
Berlin Is, In faet, an awful object
lesson to emperors and others who try
to make a capital city out of a respect
able village. It is easy to put up Im
posing buildings—If you have the mon
ey—and to cut out broad tree lined
roads and have everything neat and
nice and fine, but you only make your
village bigger and finer without mak
ing It any the more a capital city.
There is no getting away from" the feel-
iDg that Berlin is a village—a big vil
lage, a beautiful, rectilinear, new-out-
of-the-bandbox village, but a village all
the same.—Ixmdon < 'hronicle.

Notice is hereby given that after four
weeks notice persuant to paragraph
25Hi of the Civil Code, the undersigned
will apply to Honorable II. G. Lewis,
Judge of the Superior Court at his home
in Si!onm, 111 Green County, Ga., 011 the
ith. day ot June, 190(1, for an order to
sell and reinvest the following described
property, the same being a three-seventh
uniudivided remainder interest belong
ing to Laura Louise Barrett, Solomon
Barrett and Buena Barrett, said interest
being of the value of fifteen hundred
and seventy-eight dollars to-wit: All
that tract or parcel of land situate, Iving
and being in the City of Milledgeville,
Ga. it being a part of lot number three
Cl) in block twenty-seven (27), bounded
on the north by Hancock street, and the
“Barrett Warehouse” lot, east by, Mrs.
G. T. Weidenman’s lot, south by Jos.

Also a certain tract or parcel of land
situate, lying and being in the city of

(27), bounded on the north by Hancock
street and on the east, south and west
by the |nt of land a hove described, the
at. oi„; ;n uo ,^g field hv
Solomon Barrett.
The reasons for selling said property
are. that said property is expensive to
keep up, part of said property producing
income whatever, and the other parr
of tiie property is producing but very
little income, and it is necessarv to pre
serve die interest of his wards to sell,
am! reinvest in property less expensive
to keep aud producing better divi
dends. It is desired to reinvest the
proceeds of said sale belonging to
his wards, said interest amounting to
fifteen hundred and seventy-eight
dollars, in an undivided interest in
a house aud lot in the City of Mill-
edgeville, Ga., fronting 011 Green street
and said house now occupied bv C.

According to 1111 eminent authority
when the Portuguese under Gaspai
Corterenl in 1090 first useended the St
Lawrence they believed It to be th
strait of which they were in ques'
through which a passage might be dis
covered Into the Indian sea. When,
however, they arrived at the poln
when they could clearly ascertain tha
this was no strait, but a river, they ex-|
claimed repeatedly in their disappoint
ment. “Ca nada” (“Here nothing").
These words, remembered by 1V na
tives, were repeated to the next Euro
peans who visited the land. The new
comers, hearing the phrase so frequent
ly, conjectured that it must bo the
name of the country, so “Canada" it
remains.
