He Turns the Tables on the "Boys" I'm

They were sitting in the lobby Of
Young's reading the papers and enjoy
ing their cigars. One was middle
aged, pleasant faced man, who was read
ing Bill Nye, and chuckling softly to
himself as he read. His evident enjoy
ment pleased the other members of the
little group, and they began to smile.
Finally the middle aged man finished
his story and tossed the paper aside with
laugh. Then he turned to his reigh-
Dor and said:

the same purpose. AT any rate he was
there. Well, the only common meeting
place in the camp was the barroom Of
the rough board shanty that served for
a hotel. Bill was in the habit of stroll
ing in there of an evening with the rest
of the fellows. He was tall and lank,
and awkward as young calf, and the
men used to chaf him numerically.

games going on, when Nye walked in
and took seat in a corner. The boys
began to joke and chaff him as usual,
but he paid no attention, and finally
bent over and rested his face in his
hands with terribly sorrowful air.
Pretty soon tear trickled down his
cheek. That changed things at once.
One of the men touched him on the
shoulder and said: Whats the matter,
pard? You mustn't mind our chin. We
didn't have no intention of hurting your
feelings
bill shook his head sadly and said:
No, faint that. It's my pard, poor
John. Poor, poor John! Ny best friend

hour ago.
"WelI, the boys were good deal
taken aback. Bills pard was a tender
foot by the name of John Slower, who
had come out for his health as much
as dust. He was there in the barroom
the night before, and of course we were
surprised to hear that he'd passed in his
checks. Somebody proposed that we go
over and see the remains. so we formed

A Uniuue Fernery.

In the main glass covered building in
the Botanical garden, amid all the
wealth of tropical plants. Mr.. Smith, the
superintendent of that department of the
annex to the Agricultural department
proper (Which is kept up as govern
mental source for bouquets and bouton-
aires for senators and members), has ar
ranged carved stone fernery that has a
history, and it has also given him some
trouble to explain its history, at the ex-
pense of his character for truthfulness.
When the old senate chamber doors
were taken down the superintendent of
the Botanical gardens had the stone arch
above one of the doors removed to his
main Conservatives, where it was placed
contiguous to an artificial pool of water
or fountain. and made mantel for ar
borescent plants that for effective beauty
surpasSes nature herself Unfortunately
in jocular moment he told some one
that the stone mantel was relic from
the ruins of Herculan8um. For months
after wives and daughters of senator's,
members and others interested in the
antiQUarieS bothered him almost unto
death for its unique history.
Withal its history. as having been the
arch of door of the American senate
chamber under which walked Webster,
Clay, Calhoun and galaxy of manhood
whose equal the Acropolis and Parthe-
non never encOmpassed, should make it

American history.-WashingtOn Post.

ST. PETERS ON THE MOUNT.

Above the world It seesns-this house of God,
Beside its walls-ths green and daisied sod,
Beneath-the woods and rseadows spreading far.
On either side the mountains form a wall
Alone il stands-like some bright guiding star
Serenely shedding light and Joy DER all
Nearer to heaven il seems-we climb the hill
And at the prospect soul and being thrill.
The wide world lies hollow at peace and rest
Beyond the waters Of Lake AsQuam roll
And that same wind that stirs the waters breast
Brings sweet refreshment to the weary soul
Nature and God are one-and as we kneel
The Holy Spirits influence we feel
There no discordant note-the singing bird
That carols merriy outside the door
Dsturbeth not the reading Of the word
There is a harmony not known before
Ehe perfect peace ofGod for which we pray
Seems to be with us on our homeward way,
And as We look behind, the church OF stone
Encircled by the earth's most ancient hills,
above the mountains, seems TO stand alone.
The while its shadow all the valley fills

Where She Lived.

II is strange how difficult some per-
sons find it to answer simple question
directly. Even the fact that time, other
peoples time, is valuable does not dis
turb their enjoyment in chatting of vari-
GUS things which have no bearing on the
two or three words which their inter
locutors wait more or less patiently to
hear. The following conversation took
place not long ago in busy savings
bank.
Said the cashier, where do you live,
madam"
"Well, Just came up from the Cape.
My sisters Just been married, and her
husband has a fine place down there.
He's doing well, is Amelias husband,

cashier, Il wish to fill in this blank with

wanted me to go down and visit her at

month. She wouldn't hardly let me

She paused a minute for breath, and
seemed rather surprised to be asked
sternly:

I've been there more than month, she

And the cashier and four customers
who had been waiting breathed a sigh
of relief as she turned away murmur-
ing that Athensvllle wasn't really
town, but that her married sister liked
living there very well.-Youth's Com

The River and Earbor Bill.

Our dispatches from Washington yester-
day contained statement that the river
and harbor bill was in danger of being de-
feated for the reason that the big pension
bill would take 50 large part of the reve-
nues that there would be nothing left for
rivers and harbors. The dispatches also
contained the statement that the river and
harbor bill was unpopular in congress.
1t is undoubtedly true that a very large
sum OF money will be required for pensions,
aud it is also true that the appropriations
for other matters are unusually large-so
large, in fact, that Speaker Reed has
thought it advisable to notify the repub-
lican leaders of the House that in the appro-
priations yet to be made extraordinary
economy must be exercised.
There is no good reason for saying, how
ever, that the river and harbor bill is in
danger of being defeated 1t may not be
popular measure with those congressman
who represent districts which are not
directly interested in the bill, but the
promptness with which it was put through
the House shows clearly that it has enough
friends TO prevent it from being defeated.
Indeed. it is probable that 1t could
be passed over the Presidents veto. There
is no probability of veto, however. The
President recognizes that the river and har-
Dor bill is of great Importance. and that the
public Improvements of the country wou Id
suffer incalculable damage if it should not
become law.
The enemies of the bill no doubt will
make other efforts to defeat it. They will
not be successful, however. They may sue
coed in having it changed in some particu-
lars, but the changes will not affect its chief
items
If congress were disposed to look more
closely after the interests of the people, aud
to devote less attention to measures in-
tended to strengthen the Republican
party, it would have acted upon
the river and harbor bill before it acted
upon the dependent pension bill. 1t is SO
anxious, however, to please the ex-union
soldiers that it is willing to adopt almost
any policy that promises to meet with their
approval
However, there is no ground for thinking
the river and harbor bill will be defeated.
1t will be passed within week or two, and
the President will sign it.

The South Bounds Popularity.

The projected South Bound railroad is q
popular road. There seems to be no trouble
in getting the money necessary to build it.
That probably is because there is no doubt
that it will be a paying road.
The other day it was announced that it
had been determined to increase the stock
of the construction company from $500, 900
to 100000. Yesterday reports were re-
ceived from the committees charged with
the duty of getting additional subscrip-
tions to the stock. The committees
reported that $4,000 had been taken
in Baltimore, $50 900 in South Carolina and
$4,000 in Savannah, making $40 0,O00.
While the amount of the original stock was
$500, 900, there had been subscribed, as a
matter of fact. $4,000. Therefore more
than $700, 900 has been subscribed.
Work on the road is being pushed vigor-
ously. Almost before the people of Savan-
nah are aware of it the South Bound will
be built and in operation.

The Alabama Midland.

The Alabama Midland railroad will be
formally opened tomorrow with appropri-
ate ceremonies at Montgomery. This road
is in close alliance with the Savannah,
Florida and Western, aud therefore brings
Montgomery and a large part of the richest
section of Alabama into close business re-
lations with Savannah.
Savannah's merchants fully appreciate
the advantages the Alabama Midland will
afford them for increasing their business
The country tributary TO this road is being
developed rapidly. Having a fine climate
and a very productive soil, it will attract
immigrants from all parts of the country.
Its growth in wealth and population, there :
fore, will, there is every reason to believe,
be phenomenal.
The Alabama Midland is certain to be of
incalculable benefit to Savannah. 1t will
be the means of greatly increasing her
cotton, naval stores and lumber receipts.
1t is certain that if the Central brings as
much cotton to Savannah next year as it
has this Savannah's cotton receipts will &c
| considerably beyond a million bales.
| 1t is not too much to expect an
increase of 100000 bales in the
receipts by way of the Savannah, Florida
| and Western. That road can depend upon
the Alabama Midland for nearly that num-
Der of bales.
Savannah merchants can hardly fail to
do large business in Alabama. They are
in position to handle all kinds of mer-
chandise to better advantage than the mer-
chants of any other city in this state or
Alabama. The Alabama Midland therefore
promises great deal to Savannah.

South Georgia.


There is no other part of this state, and,
in fact, no other part Of the south, in which
there can be sean more evidences of i'm
provement and prosperity than in South
Georgia. Not many years ago the greater
part Of that section of the state looked very
much like a wilderness, and many OF those
who had Travelled through it thought it
would never be anythingsmore than a will
dernesS A wonderful change. however,
has taken place in nearly all the coun-
ties included in it. AS fast as the
timber is removed the land is put into
cultivation There are hundreds Of farms
now where only little while ago there was
only the unbroken forest. And they are
excellent farms. productive and profit
able. They have neat dwellings and ample
outbuildings for stock. They give one the
impression that their owners are thrifty
and progressi We, and are sati6ed with their
surroundi ngs and prospects.
Along the line of the Brunswick and
Western railroad the evidences of changes
for the better are particularly noticeable.
The farmers along this road have pur-
chased. this year. between three and four
hundred carloads of fertilizers. They are
giving good deal of attention to the culti-
walton Of long staple cotton, and they are
meeting with encouraging success. 1t is
predicted by those who are in a position to
know something of the changes that are
taking place in South Georgia that within
comparatively few years the amount of
long staple cotton and fruits ard vegeta-
bles which will be grown in that section
will be something almost beyond belief.
1t has been known for a long time, of
course, that melons and the LsConte pear
grew to perfection in nearly all parts of
South Georgia, but the extsnt to which
these things are being grown is only begin
ming 10 be appreciated, and the fact that the
soil and climate of that section are well
adapted to other things than fruits and
vegetables is even now not generally known.
A prominent railroad man, who is well
acquainted with all parts of Georgia, stated
day or two ago that no other part of the
state was advancing in material prosperity
with such rapidity as the southern part.
The people, he said. had the appearance of
prosperity. That they were doing we'll was
shown by the fact that they paid cash for
what they bought. and were constantly
adding to the attractiveness of their homes
and making improvements on their farms.
1t would not be at all surprising if South
Georgia should become the garden spot of
the st tie. When the movement of immi-
grants southwark begins in earnest very
large percentage of ii will be in the direc-
ton of South Georgia. because there the
conditions necessary for building up pros
porous communities-a healthful climate
and a productive soil-are more satisfac-
tory than almost anywhere else.

Judge and jury in Ravenna (O.) court
had a startling surprise the other day.
Mrs. John Valentine brought suit against
several life insurance companies for 81, 900
on policies held by her husband. The de-
Tense was that the man committed suicide
by shooting himself in the head. To prove
her case Mrs. Valentine had her husbands
body exhumed, the head cut off and brought
into court and placed upon the counsel's
table. The smell of the decomposed relic
had bad effect, and the case was promptly
decided against her. Her evidence is of a
kind that would hardly justify her in ask
ing for new trial
