Would it not be well to have some
concert of action about fixing up that
flag belonging for the present to Geor-
gin? It's certainly time some one was
moving in the matter. The member OF
the Democratic Executive Committee
resident in Dallas, or the presidents Of
the Tiden and Hendricks clubs of the
city, ~should at once appoint suitable
committees, not only of gentlemen, but
Of ladies, to solicit funds to have the
flag made and transmitted IL might
be well to consider tho propriety of dis
patching special messenger or envoy
plenipotentiary to convey the banner to
the Governor of Georgia and to take
his receipt therefor. This flag should
DO accompanie it'll the proper adj
dress, and mittee should be
formed to prepare it.

Miss Moggaridge's Provider'
BY HARRIET PRESCOTT sPoFFoRD.

The way in which people Interested
themselves in Miss Moggaridge's affairs
would have been curiosity In itself any
where but in the sea-coast town where
Miss Moggaridge lived. But there 1t had
become SO much a matter OF course Tor one
neighbor to discuss the various bearings oil
all the incidents In another neighoors lie
and, If unexplained facts still remained,
to supply the gap from fancy.-in addition
to the customary duty of keeping the other
neiyhbor's conscience, that 1t never struck
soul among all the worthy tribes there
that they were doing anything out OF the
way in go.siping. wondering ,cOnjeclurlng,
aud declaring this. that, aud the other,
about Miss Moggaridge's business, after
fashion that would hsye made any one but
herself perfectly wild.
But Miss Moggaridge was placid old
soul, and the fact OF her neighbOrs' gossip
implied censure which perhaps she felt
to be not altogether undeserved, while on
the other hand, their wonder was not en-
tirely uncomplimentary. she found herself
able to disregard them altogether, and In
answer TO query, complaint or expostuia-
ton. concerning her wicked waste which
was to make woful want, always met her
| interlocutor with the sweet and gentle
words, The Lord will provide"
Poor Miss Moggaridge's father had been
that extraordinary phenomenon, clergy
man, possessed not only Of treasure in
Heaven, but Of the rustier and more cor
ruptible treasure, by the way, which he
did not have time to scatter t. the 1oui

A Demoralized Anti-Slang Society
From the Wheeling lntclIigencer.

The Reform Club is the title OF new
organization Ia the West End, organ
Izcd by Young ladies for the purpose ol

sister member for ransgressing the rules.

replied the other.
Well, wouldn't it be?' returned the
speaker; you know you said yourself no

ever in the sweet by and by.
'Thatll be all right said the President;

Another member asked if n young lady
could say 'old splendid without subject

you bet she can't, said the President,
who was the original founder of the society
and therefore appealed To when any nice
question was to be decided.
Then, said the speaker. Il move that
