His Religion.
Rim Arm in the Atlanta Constitution.

Bill drip in the Atlanta Constitution.
heard Zeb Vance telling how he cap
tured the vote of a backwoods settlement
in North Carolina when he first ran for
Congress. He said he had never been IN
that settlement and didn't know the boys
He rode over the mountains and found
about 60 sovereigns at a cross road grocery
and he got down and hitched his horse and
began to make their acquaintance and crack
his Jokes around, and thought he was get
ting along pretty well with them, but ne
noticed an old man with shaggy eyebrows
and big brass spectacles sitting on chunk
and marking in the sand with stick. The
old man didn't seem to pay any attention
to Vance, and after while Vance conclu-
ded that the old man was bell-wether OF the
flock and that it was necessary to capture
him, so he sided up close to him and the
old man got up and shook himself and
leaned forward on his stick and said sol
emily: "This is Mr.. Vance, | believe? 2
eyes, sir" said Vance. "And you have
come over here to see my boys about their
votes l believer" eyes, sir, said Vance,
''that is my business"
"Well, SIR" said the old man, "afore
you proceed with that business | would
like to ak you few questions"
Certainly, sir, certainly" said Vance.
"What church mout you belong to 2
said the old man.
That was sockdologer Vance didn't
belong to any church He knew that re-
ligion and meeting was a big thing in the
backwoods and controlled their politics, but
he didn't know what their religion was, for
North Carolina was powerfully spotted.
But he squared himself for the response
bility and says he: "Wellnow, my friend,
1 will tell you about that, for it is fair
question. OF course it is. Well, you see,
my grandfather came from Scotland, and
you know that over in Scotland everybody
is Presbyterian" Here he paused to note
the effect, but saw no sign of sympathy
with his grandpa.
"But my grandmother came from Eng
land and over there everybody belongs to
the Episcopal Church He pausad again
and the old man marked another mark In
the sand and spit his tobacco away off
"But my father was born in this coun-
try in Methodist settlement and so he
grew up Methodist" Still no sign Of
approval from the old man, and so Vance
took his last shot and said "But my
good old mother was Baptist and it's my
opinion that man has got to go under
water to go to heaven"
The old man walked up and taking hem
by the hand said : swell, you are all
right, Mr.. Vance" and then turning to the
crowd said: Boys he'll do and you may
vote for him. l thought he looked like a
Baptist" And the old man drew flask
from his coat tail and handed it to Vance
to seal his faith.

Compromising With Telegrapher.

A man about 35 years of age galloped
down the stone step leading to the Western
Union Telegraph office, yesterday, and
rushed at the receiving clerk with the in
quiry:
"Can l express my feelings in tele-
gram?"
"Do you mean that you want to use pro-
fame language?"
II do. l want to use some of the tall
est kind of it!'
1--WE can't send anything of that sort
There are no letters in the Morse alphabet
to stand for swearing words"
"Well, then I'll have to let it go, but |
wanted to telegraph to my brother that |
had been robbed. | put my satchel down
to fight with hackman, and some one
stole it"
He went away growing and muttering,
but in about an hour he returned in still
hotter haste, and exclaimed:
CHOW I've been robbed of my coat and
$40 in cash, and I've got to swear by tel
egraph or bust!"
''Hung my coat on telegraph pole while
l was trying to outjump fellow, and some
one gobbled it.
GAS told you before, we don't transmit
any profane language" replied the clerk.
"You can notify your brother that you have
had bad luck
'And not express my feelings Never !!
He wouldn't believe it was me, Make an
exception in my case, can't your"
The clerk couldn't, and the man said he
would do his swearing by letter, and make
it heavy enough for double postage. 1t
wasn't half an hour, however, before he
reappeared, and this time he couldn't stand
still as he shouted out
"I've got to do it Hadn't been out of
here ten minutes when chap in shooting
gallery mopped me all over the floor.
Robbed licked-mopped. Say, lemme
swear by telegraph. I've got dollar left,
and I'll give it to you to send ten words to
Bay City"
''You might get around the rule by
sending cipher Dispatch suggested the
clerk.
"Bully. I tumble I'll fix it in a
minute"
And he wrote and handed in:
Robbed + = Licked u! it'll
1t! Send me $50 *!!!!
"Thcre she is, he said, as he paid for it.
'There's robbery, meanness, arson, steal
ing, pounding, sentiment, profanity and
brotherly love all crowded into the one
thing, and you bet your life Ben will catch
on. I'll now go out and get in Jail and
wait for his answer "-Detrod Free Press.

stock embraces every class and description OF
goods that can be named under that head.
They do not keep any article in stock that,
though low-priced, would be worthless TO the
buyer at any price. They have been in bust
ness under the firm of HAMILTON EASTER

estly and fairly. The price, in plain figures,
is marked on every article. The most mex
perienced buyer can deal with them and pay
no more than any one else.
They show their goods freely, but do not
solicit or press any one to buy.
Will send SAMPLES when requested, on
receiving plain instructions in regard to the
goods required-about the price wanted, col

Being regular importers and large puE'
chasers, they are in a position to buy their
