ANCESTORS AND TITLES.
High Birth Is Like a Stream That Grows

High Birth Is Like a Stream That Grows
Shallower as it Flows.
From the Boston Herald.
In regard to aristocracy Daniel Webster
one wrote: There may be, and there
often is. regard for ancestry which nour-
ishes only weak pride; and there is also a
care Tor posterity, which only DISCUSSES
an habitual evarice or hides the working of
low and groveling vanity. But there is
also q moral and philosophical regard for
our ancestors which elevates the characi er
aud improves the BEAST Aristocratic title,
are often obtained by dishonorahle means
says TerdS SiftingS. Many q man becomes
ignOble to become noble.
The confidence of nobility of birth has
rendered men ignoble, Just as the opinion
OF wealth makes some men poor. Lord Bacon
has compared those who lived in the higher
spheres to these heavenly bodies in the
armament which have much admiration
but little rest. Titles are properly the
insignia OF wise and honest men. The fool
or knove that wears one Is a falsider. They
who dilate upon their glorious ancestry are
tooilshly vain OF a debt which probably
they viii never be able to pay, 1t hes alsl
been remarked that a river generally be-
comes narrower and more Insignificant as
We ascend to its source. The stream Of
ancestry, on the contrary. Often vigorous,
pure and powerful at its fountain heal,
usually becomes more feeble, shallow and
corrupt as It flows downward.

EPIsCoPALIANs TAKING HOPE.

A Probability Now That Bishop Tai
bot May Come to Georgia.
Episcopalians are taking fresh hope that
Bishop Talbot will accept the bishopric of
Georgia. The Atlanta Herald learns that
the chances for his acceptance are
growing more favorable. 1t says:
"It will be remembered that Bishop Talbot
decided to leave the matter partially in the
hands of the House of Bishops of the church
and the standing diocesan committees. II
is learned from DR.. Upper, rector of ST.
Philips, that many Of the diocesan stand
ing committees have already given their
consent to DIR. Talbot's making the change,
and that number of the bishops have also
expressed their views favorably 10 the
change, so it looks very much as though he
will soon be at the head of the Episcopal
church in Georgia. 1t is expected that the
matter will be decided next week"

TWO CUT WITH RAZORs.
An Uncls Does Up Bis Niece, and 6
Nephew His Uncle.

Nephew His Uncle.
Night before last was lively one for cut>
ting scrapes Josephine Matthews was
Blink Washington, and J. II. Houston was
used up with a similar weapon by Hamilton
Founder, his nephew. All the parties are
colored. There was a singular coincidence
between the two ARRAYS all the way through.
The first occurred in house on Gwinnete
street, near Habersham, and the other in
a house on Gwinnett street. near West
Broad.
The Matthews woman aud her uncle
quarreled about trIfling affair aud then
undertook to fight it out. The woman,
however, was the better pugulist OF the two,
aud when Washington found that his nice
was getting the upper hand of him he pulled
out a razor and gave her a slash across the
throat and deep cut in the shoulder. The
wounded woman screamed aud Washington
ran out OF the house and made his escape.
DIR. Comm dressed her wounds. She will
be laid up for some time, but there Is no
danger OF fatality.
The other ARRAY was much more serious,
and Houston Is badly wounded. He and
his nephew, Founder, have been living in
the same house for some time. The young
man has not been behaving himself in
proper manner, and Saturday night his
uncle undertook to read him lecture about
his conduct. The nephew didn't take
kindly TO the advice, and started
for his uncle with razor.
Houston's wife called out to him to
look out, and he turned to get vase
| from the mentel TO defend himself. The
moment he turned his back Founder cut
him across the back, severing several
muscles and making q wound about
four inches deep. Next he cut
! for Houston's throat but succeeded only in
inficting long, deep wound in his shoul
! der The wounded man turned to escape
and received another cut in his left side be-
tween the ribs. Founder was evidently
determined on murder. and made slash at
! his uncle's breast. Houston threw up his
! right hand Is ward Off the blow, and got
another deep cut on his wrist. Then be fell
| to the floor, and Founder jumped out Of the
window and escaped.
The police ambulance was seut out 20 the
scene of the cutting and Houston was taken
| to the Georgia Infirmary where he now is In
a serious coalition. DR.. Weichselbaum
| doesn't think that the wounds will prove
| fatal.
| About o'clock yesterday a colored man
reported at the barracks that Founder was
| hiding in house at Zubly and Farm
| streets. Officers Christian and Prendible
were sent there. and succeeded in capturing
the would-be murderer. He made no re-
sistance, and was taken to the barracks and
| locked no.

before yesterday of a unique wedding
unique from the fact that the contracting
parties are both closing up to the three
quarters of a century milepost. Daniel
O'Leary, a well-known employee OF the

the blushing and bashful groom and Miss
Mary Doyle, coy maiden OF 81,

for the groom. Rev. William Qulnlaa per-
formed the ceremony, which was witnessed
by only few of the Intimate friends of the

Mr.. O'Leary changed the date to avoid the

lovers had stolen a march, went back to

held short reception at their residence,

THE TRICK MATCH CRAZE.

1t Is at It's Hight Now-What It is.
The match tiend is abroad. This is not
the flend who is always asking for match,
but the feud who politely hands one and
smilingly awaits the shock which always
comes.
The match is an ordinary looking affair,
just IKE any other match, only there is a
little spot about quarter of an inch from
the head that looks as il the wood had been
scorched in the manufacture.
The unsuspecting victim draws it across
the heel of his shoe or the seat OF bis panta-
looms, and, just asshe goes TO light his cigar,
and has taken about one puff, the minias
ture internal machine goes off with bang
that startles him half out Of his wits, espe-
cially if he is a nervous man. By the time
be discovers that the match has exploded in
his hands. and that be is the victim of a
practical joke, the joker is around the cor
ner on the lookout for another victim.
Smokers would better carry their own
matches until the craze is over.
