Saints are not canonzed in the Roman

their victims are fairly cold has been carried
far enough. Let them have at least their
two centuries of probation.

full to Trenton for suggesting organized effort
in this direction,


Steering seems to have become one OF the
lost arts in our harbOr. Collisions co"io
hardly be more frequent If the pilots were
oil discharged and their places supplied by
landsmen wholly ignorant OF navigauOh'
Yesterday another accident occurred. Inc
Havana steamship City of Washington was
run into by two oil barges and escaped going
to the bottom only by the excellence OF her
iron plating 1t is interesting to know that
the collision showed that American plates are
superior to English, but the owners of the
ship and her passengers would doubtless pre-
fer to see the fact demonstrated in some
other way.
Dr. Tanners forty days fast ends at noon
to-day. He was in tolerable condition last
night and was looking forward with eager
anticipation to banquet of peaches, Callror-
MIA grapes and milk. 1t is to be hoped that
he will survive the ordeal of eating as well as
he has that of starving and in the end be
none the worse for his prolonged water diet.
His pluck in holding out to the last in spite
of his sufferings is admirable. AS to the
scientific value of his experiment. that is
question for the doctors, who are already dis-
cussing it vehemently. Fortunately there
seems to be no doubt as to the facts. Dr.
Tanner is admitted on all sides to have
honestly performed the feat of fasting which
he set out to accomplish. For forty days he
has taken no nutriment save that contained
in water. Like the alternating animals
his BODY has lived upon itself and has con-
sumed 35l2 pounds of its own substance.
Pietro BalbO was hanged in the TOmbs Prison
Yesterday. The execution was managed I'D q
quiet, orderly manner, and with as much de-
cency and soemnty as the CHASTITY perform
ance of taking human life admitted OF. Inc
neck of the criminal was not broken, and
death, which should have been instantaneous,
was an affair of slow strangulatiOn. As long
as society must kill men in legal way for
its own protection. the dying agOnies OF the
victims should be mercifully shortened as
much as possible A man shot through the
heart dies so quickly that the muscles OF his
face do not change their expression. Death
by drowning is believed to be almost pain
less so is death by chlOrOfOrm. Even the
CHASTITY guillOtne makes short work OF the
! criminal; but the moose is little better than an
| instrument of slow torture. The cases in which
death follows Immediately after the fall OF
the trap. or of the weight which III this State

The obstinate contest for the Gubernatorial
nomination in the Georgia Democratic Con-
yention grows, doubtless, out of the fact that
the nomination is equivalent to an election
Indeed 1t is a useless trouble to hold any
election in Georgia. The one party policy
has been developed to a high degree of
efficiency there.

The North Carolina Republicans who ap-
neared before the National Executive Com
mittee Yesterday are probably right in saying
that with proper effort the State can be car
,ied for Garfield; but can it be counted for
him That is the important question. The
election machinery in all the Southern States
is in the hands of the Democrats, who will
stick at nothing to carry out their share OF
the bargain with the Northern wing OF their
party aud return the electoral vote OF the South
solid for Hancock.

Christmas Exercises.

Christmas was observed in Jones
boro in a very highly entertaining
manner in most of our churches. On
Christmas Eve the Baptist Sunday
School gave an entertainment in the
Baptist Church, consisting of speeches,
essays, dialogues and also u Post
Office. Many valuable presents were
distributed from the Office. The
house was beautifully and tastefully
decorated, AMI the Choir furnished
some excellent music.
On Christmas evening the members
Of the M. +. Church Sunday School
was treated to an elegant supper at
the residence of Mr.. L. w. Keen. All
seemed to enjoy themselves very much
On Friday night (Dec, 26th) the
members of the M. +. Church, South
had a Christmas Tree. We under
stand it gave general satisfaction
The decoration was the prettiest we
eyer saw. The singing was excellent.
The colored Baptist gave a festival
in Presnells Hall on Christmas day,
which was well attended.
The colored Methodists had a
Christmas Tree in thier Church on
Christmas night, which was a very
nice affair.

~festooned ty the class which made its
appearance grand beyond description.
1t was then announced that the or
der Of the exercises would be changed
when the officers of the evening were
announced. Previous to this all had
been mere conjecture as. to what was
behind the curtains,f for the whole end
of the house was yelled. But at this
iuncture the curtains were parted and
slowly rolled back on each side. The
/ sight was simply overwhelming. The
whole end Of the house was decked
with racks about six feet high, which
wese beautifully adorned with ever
greens, and literally loaded down
with presents of all descriptions for
teachers and officers, but more es-
pecially the children. None were
overlooked, but every pair of bright
eyes was made to shine more than
once with the reception Of something
nice. After the presents were all dis
tributed, the old story of Santa Claus
was rehearsed to the little children, in
the very midst of which, the veritable
old Santa made his appearance, COM
ing right down through the window
with a perfect load of candies for the
children.
After the excitement, the candies
were divided and all dispersed. 1t will
be a time long to be remembered by
our Sunday School.
The Mas mic Supper at Fall Branch
was Of the very best quality. There
was quite a good turnout, and the oc-
casion was a real enjoyable one by all.
Socials are still numerous. Our
young folks are bound to enjoy them
selves during the holidays.
