Much consolation is afforded, how

The Times sincerely appreciates the
many compliments bestowed upon its
Sunday issue. It should be one of the
highest aims of a newspaper to de
serve compliment, and it is one of the
inalienable rights of the public to
comment upon a public journal. The
Times is gratified that its modest ef
fort met the expectations and satis
tied the critical eyes of its readers.
IT IS A REAL WAR-
The eastern war is a war in earnest
It is not a Cuban farce. The contend
ing forces—the Turks, fanatic, barbar
ous but brave ; the Greeks, Christians,
patriots, knowing the righteousness of
their cause—realize that the very es
seuce aud spirit of their national
ideas are trembling in the balance of
the battle.
It is a conflict that may draw into
itself the whole of Europe with its
varied interests.
We, on this side of the water, can
watch the struggle without personal
concern, except that which arises from
our natural sympathy for the little
nation that, alone of all on earth, bag
bad the courage to take up arms
against Abdul the Damned.
A TRIBUTE TO A DAY-
Brunswick’s Easter Day was a poem
of the sunshine, in which the rhymes
were roses, and the sentiment all the
virgin sweetness of the spring. It
blended the blisses of all the seasons,
and knew the ills of none. Such teem
ing days dawn rarely on this earth,
like works of genius that are truly
great, like women who are wholly
beautiful, but one among ten thous
and. You may know them when they
come by the almost unfamiliar radi
ance that falls on all the things of
earth, the special sanctity of the at
mosphere, the refulgence that bathes
both soul and body iu the splendor of
the memory of a riseu Lord, You
feel, inhaling such a day, that you are
the object of a preferred Providential
dispensation, and, to your selfish vis
ion, no other one, so fully as yourself,
enjoys the matchless glory of the sun
light. You know that other days will
dawn and die, and in the calendars of
the countless years, will come, per
haps, some even rarer; but when your
heart is in accord, and every shifting
elia<le of morn or noon or dusk but
strikes again, responsively, some chord
that vibrates in the harmony of your
inner self, and sets it to a fuller,
grander symphony, you bless the day
that brings it as a holy gift—the fore
taste of a paradise unpictured.
And such was Sunday.

THE TIMES: BRUNSwTCK, GA., TUESDAY MORNING, APRIL 20, 1896.
CAME BACK TO REIGN.
A PREACHER, IMPEACHED AS MAYOR,
IS AGAIN PUT INTO OFFICE.
Enemies laughed and Swore, but Stark.
weather Got the Votes—He Had a Pe
culiar Way About Him—The Most Ke
markable Campaign ou Record.
In 1894 Charles S. Starkweather was
pastor of the Church of the Redeemer,
Episcopalian and' the most fashionable
in the town of Superior, Wis.
In the spring of 1885 he resigned to
enter the mayoralty contest, was elect
ed and three mouths afterward was
impeached by tho city council for re
ceiving money from policemen and fire
men as a reward for their positions.
Two months afterward the supreme
court of Wisconsin affirmed the judg
ment of the city counoil, and, not satis
fied with this simple affirmation, ad
ministered an artistic judicial roast to
the preacher-mayor.
In 1896, with reputation destroyed,
with no pulpit or other avocation open
to him, the ex-clergyman and ex-mayor
retired to a piece of land in the wilds
of northern Wisconsin, and with the
mark of Cain upon him proceeded to
earn his bread in the sweat of his brow,
his wife remaining in Superior and
maintaining his residence here.
In 1897 he returns to Superior, con
ducts a campaign single handed and
alone, runs independent and receives
about 3,000 votes, defeating both the
Republican and Democratic-Populistic
candidates.
Every newspaper in the city opposed
him. Not a public man spoke for him.
Tho Republicans, Democrats and Popu
lists had their best speakers on the
stump, aud yet not one of them was
able to get an audience if “Starkie, old
boy,” was speaking within ten blocks.
No man ever developed greater qual
ities as a campaigner. Starkweather
says he was inspired from on high; that
he invoked and secured the assistance
of heaven. At any rate Superior is will
ing to give him the earth, judging by
the noise and enthusiasm ou the night
after his election.
1 And true it is that as a campaign
speaker his efforts, when elected before,
were puny aud lilliputian when com
pared with those ho has shown in the
campaign just closed. Some men have
vast latent resources, and some, it is
said, go to their graves without having
them stirred into action. Had Mr.
Starkweather never drunk so deep in
the dregs of adversity he might have
died without knowing his power.
That he has exhibited in this cam
paign great dramatic genius and power
every one concedes. His campaign has
been spectacular and emotional, appeal
ing to the sympathies and admiration
of his hearers rather than to their logic
al discrimination because, when it is
remembered that as mayor he acknowl
edged taking money from the policemen
and firemen after they drew their first
month’s pay, his position was a diffi
cult one to maintain. He asserts, how
ever, that it was simply an assessment
which the boys voluntarily made to re
imburse him for campaign expenses,
and that preachers are so accustomed to
accept donations that the “free offering
of the heart could not be refused.”
During his period of burning brush
and cutting trees on his farm he would
sometimes drive to town with a pair of
mules, assuming the most rustic char
acter imaginable, then a few days aft
er, with his wife, he would appear iu
silk hat and the most fashionable at
tire behind prancing steeds driven by a
coachman.
His speeches in the campaign for wit
and tact with the crowd with which he
had to deal rivaled those of Abraham
Lincoln. He has a well modulated aud
excellently trained voice for public
speaking, elegant pronunciation and
fluent language. Taken all in all, he is
the greatest campaigner northern Wis
consin has ever developed.
After he was so completely crushed
the newspapers, though working for his
impeaching, have always treated him
exceedingly well, printing columns
about him in their local department
and never permitting anything to be
said against him in the editorial col
umns, on the theory that it was shame
ful to kick a dead dog. They treated,
too, his campaign as a huge joke, re
porting his numerous speeches and thus
helping him to draw audiences. This
was continued until his campaign had
assumed such proportions that it was
impossible to head it off through news
paper effort. The last day or two the
newspapers changed their tactics, stop
ped helping him draw crowds and at
tacked him in the editorial columns,
but it was too late. He got the earth all
around Superior and the fullness there
of.—Chicago Times-Herald.

THE GLOVE FAD RAGES.
There Was Never Before Snell Extrava
gant Use of Baud Coverings.
The extravagant use of gloves is prob
ably at its height just now. There must
be one kind for driving, one for bi
cycling, one for shopping, another for
calling aud still auOiiier tor evening
wear.
Driving gloves for spring are made
of lightweight buckskin suede, and gray
is the preferred shade. A glove should
harmonize or contrast with a costume,
but never clash. All gloves worn for
driving, bicycling or in games or sports
of any kind should be either tan or gray
and he of two buttoned length.
The newest bicycle glove is made of
suede finished lisle, with a kid palm,
which serves the double purpose of mak
ing the gloves strong and protecting the
hand. These have little holes between
the fingers for ventilation, and that is a
very happy idea, for, bicycling being
such heating exercise, the hands are
very likely to perspire, which is not
only intensely uncomfortable, but ruin
ous to the glove. •
The proper glove for shopping is
made of a combination of silk and cas
tor. The very thought of silk gloves is
enough to send a chill down one’s spine,
but in these the silk is not evident.
Castor is a material, glace in finish,
which is heavier than suede and not
quite so heavy as buckskin. For calling
and the theater the gloves are all in
light shades—white, grays in shades
varying from pearl to slate and yellows
from pale lemon to tans.
The newest shade, and one destined
to become a favorite, is an qld one re
vived—ash of roses or mauve. Old
styles, like bad pennies, are sure to
come back, and this new shade, which
has not been worn in anything for so
many years, will be a welcome prodi
gal.—New York Commercial Adver
tiser.
HOARD OF A RECLUSE.
A Miner!}" Old Woman Dies and Leaves
Silks and Jewels Behind.
Residents of Willett street, New
York, were excited recently over the re
ported finding of fabulous sums of mon
ey and jewels of rare value among the
effects of the mysterious woman who
for 29 years had lived on the top floor
of a tenement on that thoroughfare. An
ambulance surgeon and the housekeeper
of the house were the only persons pres
ent when she died early in the day. No
relatives or friends appeared to care for
the body, and it was removed to the
morgue.
Not long ago she fell ill. A week
or so later the housekeeper, Mrs. Kaiser,
happened to remember that she had not
seen Mrs. Dunn for some time. She
went up stairs and found the woman
deathly sick. She summoned an ambu
lance, and one responded from Gouver
neur hospital. She died soon after Dr.
Pufford arrived.
Detectives visited the apartments and
examined the dead woman’s effects. In
a stout trunk, covered with dust and
litter, were found a number of silk
dresses made in the style of half a cem
tury ago.
No one ever remembered Mrs. Dunn
to have been dressed in anything but
the simplest garments. Iu another box
was found a bankbook of the Bowery
Savings bank, iu which was deposited
to Mrs. Dunn’s credit S7OO.
In a well worn jewel case were found
an old fashioned brooch set with ten
diamonds and several other bits of dia
mond jewelry. A number of other val
uable trinkets were lound in the litter
of the rooms.
Few living in the street know any
thing about Mrs. Dunn’s early life. It
was said that 26 years ago the woman
had separated from her husband aud
lived the life of a recluse ever since.
BUTTONS MADE OF MILK.
Combs and ISruehea Will Also Be Manu
factured of the Same Material.
For a long time buttons and other ar
ticles for which bone is generally used
have been made from congealed blood,
purchased by the button makers at the
slaughter houses and treated with some
substance that hardens it to the suffi
cient consistency.
From blood to milk is a long remove,
but the same articles that are made
from blood can he made from milk by a
process recently invented by an Eng
lishman named James Callander and
soon to be introduced into this country.
The milk used is the skimmilk that
is of little use for domestic purposes
and can be obtained very cheaply. It is
the milk that remains after the cream
has been skimmed off.
The process of turning this liquid in
to buttons, pool balls, combs, backs of
hairbrushes and similar articles con
sists, first, of straining the milk through
a cloth, in order to remove every ves
tige of cream, and then mixing it with
a substance the ingredients of which
are a secret of the inventor and com
pressing it.
At the end of three days the sub
stance is as solid as celluloid and is
ready to be cut and shaped in any way
the manufacturer wishes. —Philadelphia
Record.
Horse Had Hydrophobia.
Recently a horse belonging to Henry
\\ illison of Mount Washington, Ky.,
died of hydrophobia. Last summer the
animal was bitten by a dog, which was
afterward found to be suffering from
hydrophobia. One day recently the
horse developed rabies, and its suffer
ings since had been intense. In its ago
ny the brute almost completely wrecked
the interior of the stable.—Louisville
Courier-Journal.
Why He Was Silent.
Thej want him in the museums of the country.
Iheir offers of engagements never cease.
For he never wrote an article on Cuba,
He never wrote a battle song for Greece.
But the reason’s very plain to all the people.
And shows he wasn't very much to blame
Although he was a patriotic fellow—
He couldn’t write the letters of hts name.
