employed The srrnor made to-day is a
twin with that made 900 wears ago.
Where the former has been neglected and
allowed 70 rust and mold and the latter has
been well preserved IN some family
proud of its pedigree it frequently
and the old seems new. Be-
sides this, the European collector has made
his appearance in the Chinese market,
and the shrewd merchants of that land
have learned the trick of aging their goods
and bury the newest of their wares in the
swampS, ponds, or the sea, expose them to
acid OF acid vapor, and in other ways pro-
duce the appearance of extreme antiquity
which Is so dear 10 the European mind. The
Chinese themselves have noted fancies.
They buy. or try to buy. the best goods for
the smallest amount of money. As result,
both churches of New York have succeeded
IN bringing together a finer collection of
works of art than can be found in any col
lector's cabinet in the United States.
The paraphernalia described are used only
on great occasions. Once this year they
were brought out at the funeral of the ia
nous physician, DIR. Yen-tsee-hing, and
they will probably not be seen again in pub
lie until some great political event occurs in
the tiowery kingdom or some popular cap
italist in Mott street passes away to the
great silent majority. The treasures of the
~ nhOLb SIlScb are Ou
public exhibition in their ooms. and may
be seen by anybody who takes the trouble of
calling there at any hour between 9 a. III.
and 10 o'clock in the evening. OF those
imported by the Lon-Gee-Tong, a few are
in view in their church, Nos. and Mott
street. but the major part are locked up in
the residences and offices of their officers
and trustees
A feature, and a comical one, of the
growth of Chinatown in New York, is
found in the new and out-of-the-w
names that have lately appeared A laundry
near Central park has just been opened by
an almond-eyed individual with the appro-
pirate name Of Washing. The head clerk
of drug store, whose speciality is the treat
ment Of consumption, is felicitously known
as Wun Lung The leading dancer of the
Chinese theatrical company has the
patronymic of Hop Long, while his second
assistant appears on the salary roll as Hop
High. The two Monaghan locksmiths
sign themselves as All Kee and Wun Kee
The boss cook of a small restaurant in Pell
street is Bake Soon, while another restau-
rant employe in the same neighborhood all
swered to the title of Bake Up. A Chinese
lady-killer explains his calling in his name,
Ma Shing. The chief talker in Chinatown
belongs to the Chin family, while the two
best vocalists are respectively Sing and
Sing Cling. The latest arrival In Mott
street, a child of Mr.. Quong, has been ap.
propriately named Mails Ba Bee. A dealer
in spices and condiments has the happy sig
nature of Hee Stuug.

purchased only through the alliance ex-

cotton bagging, and straightway many

Athens Banner: Cotton is sopening very
fast, and the crop will be gathered in time
to sow plenty of small grain. One of the
largest field pea crops is promised known in
years. Sweet potatoes are turning out well,
and good stands of turnips had. This sec
ton will not make near the corn crop as
last year. The drought cut it short. A
great deal of sorghum has been planted,
and great many farmers will make their
own syrup.
Athens Banner: Col. James M. Smiths
crops are not so good this year as vas ex-
pected. Most of his farms experienced a
prolonged drought, and cotton and corn
were badly injured. He makes it a rule,
however, to replace all Of his grain land in

will help to make up the deficiency. We

Printing Office Gives Him His First
Inspiration of Ambition


Inspiration of Ambition.
Mr.. Kelley's father was a matchmaker and
jeweler in Philadelphia. At II years Of age
young Kelley became an errand-boy in a
lottery office. Next he went TO an umbrella
maker, but remained only a short time. His
next work was a copy-holder In the printing
Office of Joseph Hardin. This work had a most
important influence his life, for il was in
the printing office that he first caught the
inspiration of ambition. The chief work con-
sisted of reading histories and high-class
novels. The journal of the Franklin institute
was also printed there, and in reading that he
got good insight into various mechanical
matters that was afterward of great service TO
him, and yet he was then lad under b. At
II he became apprenticed to Rickars d
Dubasu, jewelers., and served until ne was %
years old.
Enters Politics as a Democrat.
Having finished his apprenticeship, young
Kelley in 1876 went to Boston. where he OBJ
tanned work. He was an ardent Democrat
an free trader, and at a public meeting where
some of the great men of Boston were telling
the people all about the state of the country
he became so fired up with enthusiasm that he
stepped uDbidden on the platform and deliv-
cred such n speech as made old Fanueil hal
ring with applause. In 1882 he became "A law

common pleas, which Office he was legislated

In August, 1856, the year OF the Fremont
campai IN, while away in the inter or, Mr. KEEL
ley was nominated on the BLACK Republican"
ticket from the Fourth Pennsylvania congress
ional district. That was not a good year for
BLACK Republicans" Kelley took Off his coat
and went to work, and was beaten out of
sight 10y his opponent. Then he resigned his
commission as judge and determined 10 fight
IL out. He was member of the convention
that nominated lincoln in 1880, and again a
candidate 10 the Fourth district. He was on
the crest of q swelling wave, and landed in tri-
umph a member of the Thirty seventh con-
gress, and from that day 20 this he retained
his seat. In his youth he was an ardent free
trader-in h S maturity an extreme proteo-
