than he. One instance of this was i'm

however. AS every one knows, the dark
skinned potentate is addicted to The
variety of cup that cheers and also
inebriates, and the result on this occasion
was that when the time arrived 10 pre-

highness was obliyious TO all mundane
affairs, and lay in his berth as drunk as
the proverbial specimen of nobility.
What was to he done? 1t wouldn't

party were at their wits end. But at
this innctnre Congressman Burnes came
to the rescue.

There was no time to be lost, so by
Colonel Burnes' instructions Kalakana

Colonel Burnes remained as solemn as an

when, with a dignifed wave of the hand

Washington Post, On the occasion of
General Robert E. Lees birthday re-
Gently several ex-confederate soldiers
and their friends met and commemoraied
the day in a dinner at Solari's in this
city. After the several courses had been
served, with the usual interludes of
wines, the champagne corks began to
pop in earnest, and good cheer went
around the board. OF course the toast
TO him in whose name they were assem-
bled was reserved until the last and was
expected to be drunk in the eloquence of
silence. First George W~ashington's
name was proposed and several warm
tributes of words was paid to his dear
memory before the glasses filed in his
glorious name were emptied. Then
Others and others were proposed and eu-
logized, and wine was drunk to their
memory and health, as each case sug-
gested. OF course so many toasts the
greater number to the l~iving-could not
be drunk without making some impress
sion on the quick blooded southrons.
Nobody was intoxicated, but there was
buoyancy enough to float q balloon when
all was silent as the tomb of him
whose loved and honored name has been
spoken.
Robert e. Lee!
Every man stood, his head bowed, his
thoughts upon that earnest soldier who
had wept to see the war begun and bleC
to see it ended. 1t seemed g sacrilege Il
speak, to break the silent spell that nam
had cast upon the followers and lover
of the dead. But
Friends and brothers," SAID a ricl
tremulous voice.
A shudder stirred the circle about tn
table. In his heart each man anon,
them wished no word had been uttered
and by his manner every one strove t
stop this interruption of the sweet, OK
pressive silence.
Friends and brothers," said Colone
Dick Wintersmith, of Kentucky, steady
ing himself against the table, as he raise,
one hand in solemn. impressive gestur
toward high heaven, when Robert Z
Lee died and went TO heaven he brok
George Wasbington's awful solitude"
The time, the manner of this speech
and the reaction caused by it in the teal
full hearts of those present made it pei
haps the best remembered utterance of
man whose ford eloquence has mad
for him the reputation Of q stirrin
orator.
That" said the friends. as they wipe
away their tears and warmly shook h
hands-''that is more eloquent than eve
silence"

What He Says on an Important
Subject. !
Several days ago we published a letter
from Experience. upon asabject which
is attracting considerable attention, and
we have since received a similar com
munication from another, which we pub
lish in full:
To THE EDrToR:-A, short time

tracted my attention since it con-

which is of general importance. AT first
l was inclined to regard the letter re-

of Messrs. Fl. II. Warner g. Co., to at

of the greatest value and merit, but upon

1t is daily becoming more apparent
that there is something radically wrong
in the manner in which disease is being
treated by those whose profession it is to
heal the sick. A man is taken i'll, and q
physician is called in. "Only a slight
nervous disorder" remarks the physi-
clan. The slight nervous disorder, how.
ever, refuses to be controlled, and in q

An UNIQUE Club House.

Lexington, Ga, can boast of the most
unique club house IN the world. The
Young men of that town built a log hut,
which they chinked with clay, making it
as snug and tight as q palace. Nj n
end is an enormous open fireplace feeding
up to a primitive chimney. The club,
which embraces the best young men, has
a weekly supper. The day before the
supper a huge wood fire is built in the
fireplace, and the next evening there is a
bed of coal and a.hes that a king might
envy. The birds, fish, 'possum and
oysters are cooked in the glowing ashes,
and some wonderful bits of gastronomy
they turn out.

ORANGE, May 2Sth-The Methodist Dis
trict Conference of this circuit is in session
at Orange, some twenty-five ministers be-
ing in attendance.
County division matters are the all-im-
portant feature of the day, and Joint de-
bates are of every day occurrence. While
both sides are working zealously the very
best feeling prevails. No Los Angeles car
pet-baggers have as yet nosed their way
into our affairs, although Judge Carpenter
is advertised for Orange tomorrow night.
The Anaheim people urging against the
division were received with the greatest
kindness throughout.
1t is believed that the Anaheim people
are getting better comprehension of mat
ters daily and will poll large vote for the
division Notwithstanding the opposition.
While no honest vote can be spared, the
division is now an assured success.
1t is reported, however, that Los Angeles
parties will endeavor to vote couple hun
dred on the Anahelm ditch. Should such
an attempt be made many arrests are sure
to follow, as ninety days in Orange county
is a necessary requisite for suffrage.
SANTA ANA, May 2Sth.-The Anti. County
night was addressed by Anaheim speakers
in opposition and by Professor Manley and
Jessie Arnold in favor of it. The opposition
men met with a cold reception. En-
thusiastic applause greeted the remarks of
Manley and Arnold. The sentiment in
favor of division has perceptibly increased
since the reasons against county division
were circulated extensively by the Anti
Divisionists.
