Ot coure Kansas had to bob up

State has been a Jonah to the country

This is the combination Colonel
Buck worked, says the W aycross
Herald: “One sort, two sort, six
sort, Sal; bobtail, dominecker, dil,
dol, dal; hail’em, scalem, Irish Mary,
gingletum, sangletum, Buck.”
Colonel Ingersol declares he never
saw “a man of dignity who was over¬
burdened with 'sense.” This is a re-
minder of the difficulty of under¬
standing how a sensible man like
the Colonel can have so little sense.
Boss Buck was compelled to attend
the Negro reception held in his honor
at Atlanta Monday night before mak¬
ing his final arrangements for his
departure minister to Japan. The
Constitution says the reception was
a swell affair.
Albany’s eity council hastily gath-
ered together Tuesday and voted
to 1 to 6top a prize fight
to take place at tho opera house in
that city Tuesday night. A lot of
kicking was done over tho matter by
the sports,but the police were careful
to see that no knocking took place.
Isn’t it funny that Bomo people know
when and how to act.

Why don’t tho people lot up on al 1
the pulpit oratory and nowspapor
cant of the day about what poor lit-
tie Greece has done for tho civilized
world and ... her something ..
give more
substantial. Every Christian is well
acquainted with the rooord of Turkey
and Greece. Such rot is sickening,
for all can detect tho odor of tho gold
cure in tho compound.
The county commissioners did tho

Mr. Arden Koel is a good workman,
and no doubt will keep our county
bridges in good shape. Our commis¬
sioners are doing all in their power
to serve the people of the county in
an unliased and impartial manner,
and every citizen should “back them
up” as long as they perform their
duties as heretofore.
Several good, newsy communica¬
tions reached us this week that we
could not publish. There is but one

preciate the growing interest in tho
paper shown by all, and “if tho Mow-
TOR lives,” and when it gets “grown,’
we hope to be able to “set up” all the
newsy lotters or friends write, and
hope they will reach tho office by
Monday night or Tuesday morning
Suoooss to you all, boys.
If Major Ilanson cursed tho late
lamented Wadley for being a mono¬
polist. threatening to “fight him’
until hell freezes over and then fight
him on tho ice,” says the Macon.
News, how, in the name of common
sense and truth, can he cal’. Samuel
Spencer a public benefactor. If Mr.
Wadley was in a sense, a monopolist,
he was also a developer, and did more
than any man of his day to upbuild
certain sections of Georgia.
Spencer is simply the agent of Wall
street coupon clippers, whoso solo
purpose is to combine for greater
profit to themselves by squeezing the
people.

A case was tried in justice court
at the court honse Wednesday which
the Monitor refuses to notice in any
particular until futher developments.
Some people might think the paper
should have given a full report of the
trial, but its publisher does not look
at it that way, for the publication of
such cases as this, which, we aie
sorry to say, some of our leading
dailies engage in, creates morbid sen¬
timent and bad telling, and dignifies
“dirt.” We have to be cautious in
all ti.ings, and especially in some
things.

Editor Morgan Monitor: Dear

citizens to subscribe for such a well

well, and will give as much as anyone
according to my ability.
Secondly. I believe it to be a good
enterprise in mauy ways, not only to

I wonder what was the matter with
our president last Saturday? Whether
ho was missed by tho Institute would,
1 presume, soem insignificant to him
had ho but been so fortunate as to
havo heard the words, “I did miss
him,” spoken very earnestly by one
of the fairest daughters that lent her
charming presence to our assemblage
on that day. No questions, now, Mr.
President; if she wishes you to know
that you were, by her, especially
missed she will toll you. If not, I
won’t.

CUSTOMS IN BELGIUM.
Oddities In Homo Life and Dress That
Startled an English Woman.
Breakfast in Belgium proceeds in
courses, with a change of plates at each
service, but not a change of knives and
forks. These implements must be used
through successive courses, however
dissimilar, resting between whiles on
glass or silver holders, placed beside
each cover. The holders, alas, I often
forgot to employ, sending my knife and
fork out on my plate, to the maid’s con¬
fusion and my own dismay. An English
woman, long resident in Brussels, in¬
vited me to dinner with the cheering
assurance: “We are English, not Bel¬
gian, in onr ways. We change the
knives and forks. ” Meats and the fruits
to which we are accustomed are dear in
Belgium, but Yankee products grace
many tables. “I don’t know what we
Should do without ycor beef extracts for
sauces and your California tinned
fruits,” observed my hostess at a charm¬
ing breakfast. “Feel at home,” said
another lady pleasantly. “Hero is some
mause pea.” As lier pronunciation and
the dish itself—a so called mince pie—
resembled nothing familiar to my ear
or vision I was baffled for tho moment
as to the nature of her kind intentions.
If I visited a weaviug school at 8 in
the morning, when all the men were
yet in that startling home undress
which prevails in some households be¬
fore the formal dejeuner, the wife of
tho weaving master wonld press me,
‘ ‘Prenez quelque chose, je vous en prie,
mademoiselle. ” I called early one day
ou a secretary at Charleroi, with whom
I had business, hearing that he was
about to leave town. He was out on the
street. “But ho can’t have gone far,”
protested his sou, “for he hasn’t dress¬
ed himself yet..” Which alarming state¬
ment proved too true, as I soon discov¬
ered when an apparition appeared on
the threshold, unwashed, uncombed,
with overcoat and ueckhandkerchief by
no means concealing the unmistakable
loose uightrobe beneath. So suggestive
was the spectacle that, declining the
unembarrassed entreaties of monsjepr’s
spouso, “Pray take something, made¬
moiselle,” I dispatched my inquiries
and fled.—Clare de Graifenried in Har¬
per’s Magazine.
Wanted to lie Called a Gentleman.
There was a sleight of hand perform¬
ance in the opera house that night, and
way down on one of the - front seats
there sat a man holding a shiny silk hat
ostentatiously before him with an ex¬
pression of deep anxiety and watchful¬
ness upon his face.
Before the performance began a friend
who sat immediately behind him and
hud noticed liis manner leaned over and
askwl him what the trouble was.
“Well, you seo, Tom,” said the man
with tho hat confidentially, “it's this
way: I’ve been in politics now for ten
years, and I’ve boon cussed and abused
and called all sorts of hard names until
I’m just longing to hear somebody ad¬
dress me in a decent manner one more
time. When this magician comes on the
stage, lie’s going to say, ‘Will some
gentleman kindly loan mo liis hat?’ and
I’m going to jump up and give him
mine. It’ll make me feel good for a
month to bo spoken to that way. I’ve
been looking forward to this occasion
for two weeks. Y'ou’li excuso me now,
for I’ll havo to jump quick when lie
speaks for I seo one of our aldermen sit¬
ting on the front row with his old
brown derby in his hand, and I’ll bet a
dollar he’s up to the same game. ”—De¬
troit Free Press.
The Clock Came Back.
A Louisville man has a cow with a
peculiar appetite. A housecleaning serv¬
ant left a small silver clock ou the
kitchen steps for a few moments, and
on her return the timepiece was miss¬
ing. Later in tho evening the small boy
of the household was in the yard. Sud¬
denly a silvery chime floated on his ear.
He listened. Another and another, un¬
til fivo times the chime had sounded,
and he recognized it as coming from
the lost clock. There was nothing near
but the cow. The boy searched all
around the yard aud then concluded
that the clock was in the cow. For
awhile there was a sort of pandemonium.
At 0 o’clock the family heard the hour
tolled from tho cow’s inside. A power¬
ful emetic did the work. Tho clock was
a little discolored, hut was still ticking.

AN OCEAN VOYAGE.
Tlie Proper Fees to Pay on Board an
Atlantic Liner.
Fees are too indefinite to bo regulated
by rule, but certain amounts are cus¬
tomary at sea. The voyager, if he is
not seasick, is dependent for comfort
first on the table steward. To this man
it seems to bo the rule to give f2. SO for
one, or §5 for two or three persons in a
party, whether one is served in regular
courses or ordors what he pleases from
the bill. La to suppers might increase
the fee.
One’s next best friend is the dock
steward, if he is attentive and has fol¬
lowed out suggestions about the steam¬
er chair and rugs. Sometimes one can
eat on deck when it is fatal to go below,
and then, if the deck steward is oblig¬
ing, he deserves the larger part of what
would go to the table steward in reg¬
ular course. If the weather is at all
fair, it is most agreeable to find one’s
chair well placed and the rugs dry ev¬
ery morning, especially if one is in¬
clined to seasickness. Moreover, this
steward is the one who continuously
brings sandwiches and broth on deck,
and, as he is obliged himself to fee the
cook’s assistant to get these articles pre¬
pared, it is clear that he should be well
remembered at parting, if any one is.
On m any lines his pay, like that of
most of tho stewards, is not higher than
$12 a month, and the company, on gen¬
eral principles, keeps back one-third to
pay for breakage. Another third goes to
the cooks in fees. Where, therefore,
would he be without tips?—Lewis Mor¬
ris Iddings in Scribner’s.
A French autograph collector says
the signature of Christopher Columbus
can always find a buyer at $4,000.
