From the New Haven Register.
Eyes. 1 went to church yesterday" said Job
Shuttle. with yawn. ''Pretty good sermon,
pretty fair; but what pleased me most was the
antics of an inch worm that was roaming about
the hat of lady who sat in front of me. That
little. pale green incher reminded me so much
Of the way we human worms get on in the
world You see, he was On the vane of the
leather In the hat and he would get q good
hold, and then reach up with his head and feel
around and look the field over to see where he
could make good strike, just like man look
ing for business; then he would throw himself
soul and body on to a curl Of the feather. which
would bend and let him down with thud. lust
like man who has made bad speculation:
then he would wriggle and twist and feel
around for new hold, just like man irving
TO 'fx things With his creditors; then he would
mount to the very tOpmost summit of the hat
and stick his head up and swing all around, lust
like newly-elected Congressman gazing over
the heads Of his constituents; finally he got
along on the lower edge OF the turncd-up hat
brim. and then he made progress; he inched
along and inched along. making bic strides
right ahead, just like q man picking up money
and making fortune hand over fist; but the
little incher wasn't satisfied. Just as he got as
far as he could he broke all up and tumb,ed.
and we saw him no more; for all the world lust
like man who has done his best for little
while and then '1unked.'"

department wherein the signers pledged them
selves to abstain from the use Of beef for ten

supremely ridiculous that a body Of men, who
from their position in the principal department

ALABAMA'S NEXT GOVERNOR,
General Edward Asbury O'NPaI,
the Candidate Of the Ala
bama Democracy.
Mobile Register.

General Z. A. O'Neal was yesterday
nominated by reclamation, upon the
twenty fourth ballot, by the Demo.
cratic State Convention as their can.
didate for Governor of Alabama. The
result, in the face of the very hand.
some vote polled by each of his com
petitors on the previous evening, is O
graceful tribute to the worth of dis
tinguished citizen who has done most
gallant service for his State. both in
peace and war. General 0'Neal is a
true man in every sense of the word.
He was a stubborn, intelligent and
dashing officer. He has been con-
spicuous as an eloquent advocate and
politician. He has been pre-. eminent
in his devotions and labors for the
Democratic party. Better than all /,
he is gentleman Of unblemished pri.
vate life, and possesses the confidence
and affection of all who know him. In
the convention which nominated him
there we're delegates attached to other
candidates by ties of locality, personal
friendship or personal obligations, but
there we're none who were hostile to
General 0'Neal, and nonel who DO
not cordially indorse his nomination.
General 0'Neal is descended from
South Carolina family, of Irish ex.
traction. He was born in Madison
county, and has resided at Florence
since 1910. In 1871 he was elected
State Solicitor. In 1919 he was an
unsuccessful candidate for Congress.
In 1861 he was elected captain OF one
of the companies which composed the
Ninth Alabama, at the organization
of which regiment he was elected
Major, and was promoted Lieutenant.
Colonel a little later. In March, 1862,
he was appointed Colonel of the
Twenty sixth, and led the gallant
regiment in the battles of the PENN
sula and in front of Richmond. Upon
the first march into Maryland he
commanded Rhodes brigade. He was
wounded at Seven Pines and at Boons-
boro. He distinguished himself at
Charlottesville, Gettysburg and Mine
Run.
In 1854 his regiment became part
Of Cantey's brigade, and 0'Neal took
command of that brigade in front Of
Dalton. He led his brigade in all the
battles upon the retreat of General
Johnston to Atlanta. After General
Hood took command Of the army
General 0'Neal was upon detached
service until the close Of the war.
General 0'Neal married Q sister Of the
