from one CIttCUg A6tO6.
A gentleman recently returned from Colo
rado tells of an amusing experience he ha0 in
Denver. He took his wife 10 the Tabor Opera
House TO hear the Madison Square Company
IN one of their elegant comedie-, and shortly
after the PLAY began he mott. ed hat an elder
~ gentleman, with a big black moustache
and conspicuous diamonds, and acc mpauled
y lady apparently his daughter) EN- cred
the box across the auditorium with a ire
mendous flourish. After this conspicuous old
gentleman had got himself seated he hap
pened to discover the Chicago stran ger in the
opposite box,whereupou he arose and ex cut
a profound bow-a bow at once SO ostenta-
tious and 30 respectful as to attract the atten-
on OF he multitude in the auditorium. The
Chicago man and h wife were greatly en-
barrassed, and they wondered who under the
sun the funny old gentleman Conid be. He
looked like reformed gambler, yet they
certainly had never made the acquaintance
Of any member of the sporting fraternity. To
satisfy curiosity the Chicago man stole out
rntre actes and aske one of his Denver ac-
quaintances who the strange ODD person was.
"Why, that's Tabor was the reply; sold
SeH''nr Tabor; he of the ruflled nightshlrt
fame"
.'out he bowed to me-" expostulated the
Chicago man. land pledge you my word
never saw him in all my life before"
ION, that doesn't make any difference"
said the Dcnverlte. You see that the old
man wants to make the Denver leopte be-
heve that ne knows everybody. He saw YOU
IN the box, and he saw you were a stranger.
He didn't know you, but he accepted the
chance that you were a distinguished m an,
and he executed one of his proiglous bows to
YOU merely TO make the rest of us think that
he knew you, even if the rest of Us didn't. 1t
Is one of his .vorite tricks. He hits YOU If
calf; but he kinks the effect is all the same
on us simple Denver folk"

Two Questions Involved.

1t seems rather remarkable that pro-
fcssors In two leading theological sem
inaries-one in South Carolina and the
other 10 Observation-Disclosures attempt
to teach doctrines contrary to those
which they agreed to teach when they
accepted their protessorships. 1t is clear
that when Prof. Woodrow accepted a
prOfessOrship IN the Columbia Seminary,
he did so with the understanding that be
should teach only the creed accepted by
the church with which the seminary is
connected, and the same is true with
respect to Prof. Smith and the four other
accused professors Of the Andover The
illogical Seminary. If Prof. Woodrow
had stated before he was chosen pro.
lessor that he intended to teach that
Adam was the product of evolution, or if
Prot Smith had announced that he in
tended to teach that the Bible is not "the
only perfect rule OF faith and practice"
neither of them, in all probability, would
have been placed in the position he AT
present occupies.
When they found that they could no
longer teach the creed of their respective
seminares they ought to have so stated
frankly and resigned. There is not SO
much concern about the change that has
taken place in their views as there is
about their attempt to teach their creed
Instead of the creed they agreed to teach,
and which is the creed of the church to
which their respective seminaries belong.
Those who take little or no interest in
the theological question presented by the
teaching of the alleged heretical profess
ors may inquire If there is not moral
question presented by their failure TO
teach the creed which they agreed to
when called to their present responsible
nositiora

Interviews With Coneressmen,

The Washington Star IS printing ipter-
views with Congressmen as they make
their appearance at the capital, with re-
spect to the feeling of their constituents
toward the adm inistration. and the reduc-
ton OF the Democratic majority in the
House. The most noticeable feature OF
these interviews is that the congressman
who have not succeeded in getting what
appointments they want from the admir-
istration almost invariably say that they
noticed, during the late campaign, signs
Of GOODNESS among Democrats toward the
President, while those who have had their
requets respecting appoint COM
piled with, found, while travelling through
their respective States, uolning but good
will and the heartiest enthusiasm for the
President.
The conclusion to be drawn from these
interviews is that the opinion of the aver
age CONGRESSMAN respecting public senti-
msnt relative to political matters is not
worth much. Ii he happens to be pleased
with the administration he is apt to think
that his constituents are also, AID If be is
not pleased with it he Is pretty certain
that his constituents are not. He cannot
understand that it is possible for them
to entertain views, on so important mat
ter, different from his.
In these interviews in the Star
some OF the ablest OF the Southern
Congressman say that the Novem-
Der elections were favorable to the
Democrats rather than to the Republi-
| cans. The Democrats retained control of
the House, which is rather unusual
thing tor the party in control TO do at the
election following the Inauguration OF its
administration, and they increased their
strength in the Senate.
The Southern Congressman who look on
the results OF the November election as a
Democratic victory are much nearer the
truth than those who regard them Ia the
light Of defeat. The Republican Jour-
male have been trying to prove that the
Democrats were signally defeated, but
the more the situation is studied tue more
it becomes evident that the Democrats
nave more reason TO rejoice than to COM
plain. The Congressman who has griey-
ance and who thinks he utters tue pre-
vaillng sentiment of his district when ne
utters only his own sentiments, will lind
out after a while that the people have 10
need Tor his services.

The report that MIR. Henry Watterson
has been offered the position Of editor OF
the New York Herald lacks confirmation.
II is said That Mr.. WaLterson doesn't get

owner Of the Courier.Journal,a as we'll as
he ~ou d like to, and that he is anxious
10 get foolhod In New York city. II is
doubtful II he would get aloag any better

The Military Organizations.

Adjutant and Inspector General Ste
pbens in his annual report makes several
suggestions which Col. Reilly, Chairman
of the Military Committee of the House,
will doubtless call to the attention of his
committee with appropriate recommended
tions. One Of them is an annual encamp-
ment of the Georgia forces for at least six
days in each year. The purpose of such
an encampment IL to secure efficiency
and dcIpline. The general government
furnishes each maritime State with
So, 900 worth of heavy ordnance, provided
it arranges for an annual encampment OF
six days.
This State does not make any appropri-
alton for its military ORGANIZATIONS,
These organizations get annually about
$1,000 from the general government, and
he balance OF the expense of their main
tenance they have to bear themselves.
This amount is an exceedingly small part
OF their expenses. In view OF the fact
that the State depends upon its military
companies to preserve the peace when
there are extraordinary disturbances, it
seems but right that it should help bear
The expense of supporting them. Because
there are citizens who are willing to bear
the expense OF these military organiza-
lions that is no reason they should be
permitted to do so. The military is
prote ction to all, and all should con-
tribute to it's support. Doubtless Col.
Reilly will present this subject to the
Legislature in the strongest possible

Changes in the Mail Service.


The announcement lately that there
would be an Improvement in the mail SER
Vice 10 and from this city was received
with satisfaction by the business men
here and elsewhere. The time fixed for
the Northern mail to leave the city, how
ever-l2:15p. mis- not an imp Ovement.
and it would have seriously interfered
with tine correspondence of business men
if Postmaster Lamar 1ad not promptly
obtained from the Post Office Department
perm ssion to send out mail pouch on
the $3.50 p. m. train, thus restoring the old
service. This pouch is placed in charge
of the conductor, who transfers it to the
postal car at Wilmington, n. G.
The late changes in the railway sched-
ules in this section did not result in i'm
proving the mail service to some points
south OF this city. A letter received from
a subscriber TO the MORNING NEWS at
Brunswick contains the following: "For
some time the Brunswick aud Western
railroad brought the MORNING NEWS
every day, arriving at p. IN. On
Sunday, Nov. :, the East Tennessee,
Virginia and Georgia railroad changed
its schedule, its fast train arriving here
at ll:20 a. M, connecting at Jesup with
the Savannah, Florida and Western fast
mail which leaves Savannah at 1901
This train, OF course, should bring the Sa-
vsnnah and Northern mail, and it was
supposed here that it would as soon as tie
Post Office Department got its affairs in
shape, but it didn't. and doesn't bring it
yet. The mail still goes around by way
OF Waycross, and, to make the matter
still worse, the Brunswick and Western
has changed its schedule, and the mail
gets here now at s p. Must about niue
hours after it ought to get here by way OF
the East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia
road.'
The Brunswick people had a right to
"kck" aud to "Kick" vigorously. They
were being very badly treated. On re-
ceipt OF the letter above referred to a dis
patch was at once sent to the Superinten-
dent OF the Railway Mail Service OF this
division, explaining the situation to him,
and he promptly gave orders to have the
mail sent by way OF Jesup.
The MORNING NEWS 10 always ready
10 assist the puOlic In every way it can,
and parLic Iiarly In getting a good mail
service. There is much disappointment
expressed at the Centrars failu e, in the
schedule changes which have been made,
TO give the public an earlier train from
this city. such train would be appre-
clated not only here in Savannah but all
along It's line.
