"Our First Gray HAIR"


As the first big pattering drops that fall
With a splash on the lattice pane.
Make us SILVER and start az they warn us all
OF storm, or OF coming rain,
So 1t is with life, when we are growing old,
And age steals unaware,
We SILVER and start n the truth were told,
At the sight Of our first gray hair.
We mark not the light of our MONDAY hours.
Like the first streaks the dawn doth bring:
We hail not the birth of our summer flowers
AS we do the fret snowdrops of spring;
On the bleak winter VIVID we look not with
grief.
Though it howl through the branches bare,
But we sigh when we witness the brown
autumn leaf,
And behold natures first gray hair.
Gray hairs may come when the beaming eve
Has none Of It's brightness lost,
When with buoyant heart we would fain
deny
Youths Rubcon has been crossed;
Yet the ivy-clad tree looks young and green,
Though a sapless trunk may be there,
And naught Of decay on our cheeks may be
seen
When we witness our first gray hair.
Come early, come late, like knock at the
gate.
Is that first soft silvery thread;
And it joins with Its silence the years that
await
With the years forever fed;
1t silently tells us we're journeying on
II silently observation-disclosures
On faithful milestone, were the truth but
known,
Is seen in our fret gray hair

Earthquake Predictions.

There are good many people appar-
emily who put faith in the predictions
which have been made by the weather
prophet, Virgins, and others, that there
are to be other quite severe shocks Of
earthquake before the distur Dances in this
locality wholly cease. A moments con-
sideration will convince almost any one
that neither Virgins nor any one else has
any data upon which to predict further
earthquake Disturbances Of a serious char
acter in this locality, and II NO
one has any data predictions
are wholly worthless. As a weather
prophet Wiggins' reputation is about
worthless, and II he knows little or moth
ing about the weather, to which he APP
pears to devote a good deal of time, what
folly 1t is to credit him with knowledge of
earthquakes, about which he doubtless
knows no more than any other man of
average education and intelligence. If
those who have spent years m the study
of earthquakes do not pretend to make
predictions respecting them, surely no
faith should be placedin the predictions
of man like Virgins.
1t was stated by scientists who have
made careful study of other earthquakes
that in all probability the great shock of
Aug. 81 would be followed by other shocks
OF minor character, which would con-
tinue through several weeks. This state
ment was not prediction, but an opinion
based upon carefully collected data. This
opinion is being proven to be correct,
and unless there shall be an exception to
what appears to be the very general rule
respecting earthquakes of the character
OF the one which continues to disturb us,
there will be no more severe shocks.
There is no reason to think there will be
an exception in this instance. Let timid
and nervous people, therefore, feel as
sured that all danger is past, and that
Virgins predictions, although not very
alarming, are to be regarded with amuse.
ment rather than fear.

MT. Lamar as He Is.

Secretary Lamar never leaves Washington
unless it 10 in mysterious way-at least the
newspapers describe il as mysterious, The
explanation Of IT is that the Secretary is a

cautious in his movements. So nowadays,
whenever he wants to be gone from the city,
for fear that he may be waylaid by Office
ranges with his private secretary to say to
newspaper men who come about the depart
ment that the Secretary has disappeared and
no one knows where he has gone: that he
came in in the morning and started to do
some work. suddenly picked up his hat, went
out, and that was the last seen of him. Regu-
larly once month this paragraph gets
into the newspapers, and Mr.. Lamar is again
and again described In the Imagination of
newspaper correspondents as q very dreamy
man. WHO has only occaslonal periods OF
wskefulness in which he works by fits and
starts. as the mood takes him, and thus &C
complishes the enormous amount of work
which he IS known to turn off. This shows
what smart man Mr.. Lamar is. / have
number OF times heard isprivate secretary
giving this usual s'stiff" to tile reporters when
Mr.. Lamar sat in his Office conversing with
me. Once saw him read paragraph in the
evening papers describing one OF these mys-
terious disappearances, and then take his car
rlsge and ride the length of street to the
Ebbltt House, exciting the establishment OF
everybody who had read the evening papers
and supposed that he had gone of
TAG nalI-uaZeU OPIUM eALef-"the
world forgetting; by the world for

Mr.. Lamar is one of the most systematic men
in the administration. and no member of the
Cabinet accompl ishes 30 much hard work day
after day as he does. He is a man OF remark
able legal acumen, and has again and again
torn up decisions written by his STAFF of land
clerks to sit down and labor over all the facts
and principles involved, and himself dictate
decision which he is willing to have 30 forth
to the world, and these decisions of Mr. La
mar are some of the richest and ripest pro-
auctions that have ever emanate from any
one holding that office. More Than any man
in the Cabinet Mr.. Lamar is statesman, and
his scholarship is a constant surprise to all
who come in ntact with him. As Judge
of men his discrimination is far superior to
that of the President.

Dental candidate Mr.. Lamar should be the

The Two Republics, published in the
City of Mexico, speaks of the retiring
Minister to Mexico in the following hand
some manner: 1.-THE resolutions passed
at the American meeting Friday, indors-
ing Hon. Henry Il. Jackson, are alike
honorable to the colony and fiattering to
the retiring Minister. Gen. Jackson has
made such an able, honorable and con-
scIentious Minister that his unqualified
Endorsement by those persons who have
been witnesses to his acts comes as a
matter OF course. Yet, IL must be graft
flying to him to know that his determine
tion to retire from the responsible
post he has so highly ornsmented, is
80 deeply regretted by those who are in
position to be the best judges of his official
and private acts during his residence in
Mexico. The resolutions express the
sentiments of the entire American colony
when they affirm that his 'supurb ability,
his purity and uprIghtness OF character,
his manly independence, his sincerity of
purpose, his patriotism and loyalty to his
government have inspired us with pride
that such man should have been sent TO
represent the United States at this CAPT.
tall That is handsome compliment,
most worthily bestowed"

There 10 one place In the world, says an
exchange, where the tenants have proved
more than match for their landlords. A
Paris landlord recently committed sui
eide because his tenants refused to pay
their rents. He said: 81 screwed little
money out of them by removing their
doors and windows, b1t when the abnor-
mslly hot weather began even that proved
useless" He asphyxiated himself. Now,
pf the Scotch crofters and Irish peasantry
could only go to Paris and learn how the
tenants managed to keep from being
evicted, they might hnally rid themselves
of their tyrannical landlords without ac-
tually numbering them.

Mr.. Sedgwtck's Return.

Special Agent Sedgwick, who went to
Mexico to gather the facts in the Cutting
case, has returned to Washington, and
has, doubtless, by this time made his
preliminary, and, it may be, his final re-
port. 1t is noticeable that he reiterates
the statement sent by him to the Score
tary OF State, and to New York news
paper, that the story that he was guilty
of dlsgracstul conduct soon after he
reached the Mexican capital is false.
1t may be that Mr.. sedgwick is a badly
used man, and that there is a conspiracy
of some sort to injure him, but this Is so
improbable that it is hardly worth con-
sidering in the absence OF any
evidence to support 1t. Can it be
that Consul General Porch and
the hundred or more American residents
in Mexico who approved the dispatch
which Mr.. Porch sent to Washington
were mistaken, and that the man who got
drunk and raised such racket at the
ball given in Mr.. Sedgwick's honor was
not Mr.. Sedgwick, but some individual
whose name has not yet reached the pub
lie?
II MIR. Sedgwick Is guilty, and hopes
that his denial Of the scandal of which he
is the subject will be sufficient to satisfy
the public with respect to it, he is greatly
mistaken. A question of veracity has
been raised between him and prominent
official, and the public is anxious to have
the matter cleared up satisfactorily. II
Mr.. Porch has made a false statement,
either maliciously or unintentionally,
let it be known, aud II Mr.. Sedgwick has
made denial which he cannot sustain
let him take the responsibility. What is
desired now is the truth. To leave the
matter as 1t is, would be unjust to both
MIR. Porch and Mr.. Sedgwick. Mr.. Porch
can hardly fail tn demand a fun investi-
cation, and IL Mr.. Sedgwick Is innocent
he can hardly do otherwise than second
the demand.

Thousands of Southern farmers will
appreciate this bit Of experience related
by Col. A. X. Mcclure in a speech at the
Lancaster county Pa taIr the other
day. He said he planted some fine crops
over IN Franklin county In 1851, but Gen.
Patterson, of the Union army, came along
and harvested them. In 1862 he tried it
again, on a larger scale, but Gen. Jeb
Stuart, OF the Confederate side, came
along and carried of everything he had.
Next year he tried it again, but Gen. Lee
made visit to his farm and appropriated
the crops. The fourth year the Colonel
again planted, and got his crops safely
harvested, and felt happy, but Gen. Nc
Causlaud came up that way with some of
his Confederate forces and burnt the barn
and the contents.

The Democrats have not yet put the
negroes back into slavery, and it is very
generally agreed now that they have no
intention OF doing 80. The fact is, the
negroes are getting along finely under
Democratic auspices. The tax returns
sent to the Comptroller General in 1885
showed that the negroes of Georgia
owned property to the value OF IS, 153, $3.50.
The returns for the present year show a
gratifying increase. The total is S., $780,
2ss, making the increase $501 1908. The
property owned by the negroes consists
mainly Of real estate. Many of them own
homes in the towns and cities, and not a
few Of them own farms.

The annual trade edition of the Augusta
Chronicle, Issued Sunday, was a splendid
paper. 1t gives a most encouraging re-
view OF the city, showing a remarkable
Increase in its Wholesale trade. 1t claims
that the surplus banking capital OF
Augusta is greater than that Of any city
IN Georgia, being $1,361, 744, as against
$4,000 In Savannah, S23s,ojO in Macon
and $2S5,OO0 in Atlanta. The Chronicle
makes the statement, and challenges
contradiction, that there are now six
stores idle in Atlanta to one IN Augusta.
The Chronicle deserves much praise for
the ability and enterprise displayed in
collatIng facts concerning its city and
presenting them to the public.
