A New Manse.
A congregational meeting was
held last Sunday at the Presbyte
rian church after the conclusion of
the usual services. The pupose of
the meeting was to discuss plans
for getting a manse, or home for
the Presbyterian minister. The
churches in charge of the resident
minister have not heretofore need
ed such a home but under the new
order of things one is needed bad
ly-
A committee of five members of
this church was appointed to in
vestigate and formulate some defi
nite plan in connection with the
proposed enterprise, aud similar
committees will probably be ap
pointed in the other three churches
comprised iu this charge, namely
Alpine, Raccoon, Beersheba. When
some working plan is definitely
decided upon little difficulty need
be anticipated in attaining the de
sired end. The enterprise is one of
general interest to the whole com
munity, for, as Mr. McLeod said in
speaking of it, '‘the preacher’s
house is everybody’s house.”
The committee appointed will
make a report at the congregation
al meeting to be held the second
Suuday in August.
We heard a negro remark yester
day that Mr. Watson,, an “extin
guished Populist,” would speak
here Saturday. While the coon
was a little off as to his English,
we are inclined to believe his state
ment Sentinel.
Miss Ellen Dortch, the present
assistant State Librarian, is a can
didatejfor the position of Librarian,
and we believe the Herald-Journal
voices the sentiment of thousmds
of Georgians when we say we hope
she will receive the appointment.
The last Legislature pass >d the
act making a woman eligible to
the position. It was largely through
the efforts of Miss Dortch that the
bill was passed, and the almost
opiui »n at the time was that
Miss Dortch would be the Libra
rian if the bill passed. The ma
jority of the thousands of citizens j
who signed the petition of the Leg
islature to pass the bill did so un- i
der the hope and expectation that
Miss Dortch would be the Libra-j
rain. It is a position which a wo- j
man is peculiarly qualified to fill, j
Miss Dortch is a young lady of rare
attainments, and we earnestly hope '
Gov. Atkinson will give her the ap
point men t. —Greensboro Herald

Grant’s Toilet In Camp.
General Horace Porter, in his
“Campaigning With Grant,” in The
Century, says: In tho night of tho
14th Lee began to move troops to his
right. Grant now directed Hancock’s
corps to be withdrawn and massed
behind the center of our line, so
that it could be moved promptly in
either direction. When the general
got back to camp that evening, his
clothes were a mass of mud from
head to foot, his uniform being
scarcely recognizable. He sat until
bedtime without making any change
in his dress. He never seemed par
ticularly incommoded by tho travel
stained condition of his outer gar
ments, hut was scrupulously careful,
even in the most active campaigns,
about the cleanliness of his linen and
his person. The only chance for a
bath was in having a barrel sawed
in two and using the half of it as a
sort of sitz bath. During most of
this campaign tho general, like the
staff officers, used this method of
bathing, or, as our English friends
would say, “tubbing.” Afterward
he supplied himself with a portablo
rubber bathtub.
While campaign life is not a good
school for the cultivation of squeam
ishness, and while the general was
always ready to rough it in camp,
yet he was particularly modest in
performing his toilet, and his tent
fronts were always tied close, and
the most perfect privacy was secured
when he was washing or changing
his clothes. While thus engaged
even his servant was not allowed to
enter his quarters.
Not What Ho Needed.
The doctor looked solemn.
“Do you walk to your office every
morning?” he asked.
“No indeed,” answered the pa
tient.
“I thought not,” returned the
doctor in his sols satisfied, superior
way. “What you need is more ex
ercise. ”
“More exercise I” roared the pa
tient. “Great mackerel! Don’t I
have to catch a crowded cable car
on the fly every morning? What do
you call exercise?”—Chicago Post.
