Marietta Journal. 0 0 0 The Holland submarine boat Rta ved under water nearly two 110 tirs the other day. “If it ever „ets near a Spanish cruiser the Ur probably stay under water much longer than that, sajs the Americus Herald. 000 The war with Spain up to date, it is announced from Wash ington, “has cost the United Sues $141,043,402.” Which is about the annual payment on account of pensions. 0 0 o The Win-slow did not win at all. 000 The brewers all over the coun try are adding $1 per barrel to the price of beer, and the dis pensers are preparing to make the glasses smaller. Noting this, the Savannah News says : “All of this, of course, is in anticipa tion of the war revenue tax on beer. If anybody had an idea that the brewer or dealer, and not the consumer, had to pay the tax, this information should remove the idea. It is always the consumer who pays the tax.” 000 Several preachers have volun teered their services for the war and in some instances fun is made of them, but The Lousville Times says reproachfully: “Don’t make fun of these praying fight ers. Cromwell had many of them and there were at least two or three in the confederate army. They are mighty good men while they are praying and as soon as they recover a little from the pious spell they often get mighty bad. Don’t monkey with them.” 0 0 o The Olympia’s eight inch guns fire eight projectiles a min ute, weighing 250 pounds and capable of penetrating 15 inches of armor plate several miles away. No wonder those Spanish bouts went down. 000 “Stick to your flannels until they stick to you” is the very sensible advice given by the Sa vannah Press. 000 A philosopher defines the dif ference between an optimist and a pessimist as follows : “An op timist believes in mascots and a pessimist in hoodoos.” n • , 0 ° ° ttere is a happy hit made by » veteran as related by the Hen derson (Ky ,) Journal: Ata meeting of ex-confederate sol diers in Owensboro the other da\ one of the speakers, Jerry Small, made a happy hit when >e said : 4, 1 speak my own senti ment truly and I believe it to l, e the sentiment of every ex confederate soldier, when I say that we tried for four years to w hip I ncle Sam.
