THIS AND THAT.

The move that is being'made by the Bap-
tlstand Methodist denominations to build
new editices should meet with the hearty
cooperation of every good citizenin the
city, regardless of professions of CHS
hanity or UNCONVENTIONAL lines. A chris
tian who loves the Lord, and gives to
the Lords cause according to his secta-
rian creed only, may get inside the pearly
gates, but he really is not likely to set
the world on fire with the love of Christ.

A Hall county citizen claims to
have the oldest mule in the state. He
is 30 years old and, does as much work
as many animals in the vigor of youth.
This record can be beaten here in
Terrell county. An old gray mule that
belonged to the Dawson Car Shops de-
parted this life a year or two ago at the
age of So. He was a fat, benevolent ami
NAL, never used tobacco or whiskey. was
strIckly moral in his habits, and pulled
wagon the day before his death.

Fruit and Flower shows.

One source of pleasure and profit we
Americans mostly miss is the autumn
fruit and flower shows which French
horticulturists annually place before
the public. In these displays the finest
fruits and flowers that ripen in mid
autumn are collected and arranged in
the artistic manner which so captivates
the eye in France, in city or country,
wherever anything is exhibited for sale.
The National Horticultural Society of
France held recently fruit and flower
show in Paris so magnificent that it at
tracted attention outside of the country
The fruit consisted chiefly Of grapes,
pears and apples. In the cultivation of
pears France undoubtedly heads the
world. Pears, SO monstrous in size and
so perfect in shape and color that they
looked like wax fruit, greeted the eye,
side by side with splendid apples and
grapes. A correspondent of the London
Telegraph declares there were single
grapes of black variety that were as
large as walnuts. Grouped artistically
with these fruits were dazzling dahlias,
gladioli and begonias, the whole forming
vision of brill1ancy and beauty to last
the beholder lifetime.

Peary's Christmas.

What will it be, in Prudhoe Land,
west coast of Greenland, n degs. As
min. north latitude, with the night OF
arctic darkness enveloping the daring
explorers9 Mrs. Peary is the first woman
who ever spent a winter in latitude as
far north. Very few men have ever
done so. Magnificent opportunity for
studying astronomy the party will have,
with the stars shining above them night
and day. What splendid midnight land
scapes will show up when the aurora
borealis plays upon the snow and ice
with It's rainbow colors.
The chances are that their fellow coun-
trymen will never see Lieutenant Peary
and his brave wife and friends again.
Still there is hope. AT any rate they
have abundant supplies to last them till
spring. If they are in good health, they
can have some pale reflection perhaps of
a home Christmas, with the means of
effort to keep their spirits up in the
awful darkness and loneliness. Next
spring, when the sunlight comes back,
Peary will attempt to reach the northern
coast of Greenland overland. A ship
must be sent to bring him home, how
ever, starting as soon as the ice breaks
up-if it finds anything in Prudhoe Land
to bring home. Meantime may Christ
mas to the Peary party be as merry as
Christmas can possibly be to anybody
under such circumstances.

That Voice Again.

A fatal objection has been brought
against tl-e possible candidacy of Cardi
nal Gibbons for the papal chair in case
of the death of his holiness, Leo XIII.
The objection is brought by European
writer, r. de Cesare, and it is this: Car
dinal Gibbons speaks no language but
English, and the enormity of the offense
becomes double dyed by the announce
ment that he ''speaks it with nasal
twang, like all North Americans.
This is indeed terrible. If that nasal
twang Of us of the United States is 60
ing to keep Cardinal Gibbons from be
ing pope, then are we far gone indeed.
Cardinal Gibbons, good, honest Ameri-
can that he is, so offends the sensitive
foreign ear by his nasal twang that it is
mentioned as a serious reason why he
should not be pope. "R. de Cesare, y
who evidently would fight bitterly
agaist any American candidate for the
papal succession, seems able to find
nothing graver than this to bring against
the Baltimore cardinal. which is com
pliment indeed to him.
But is not this the place to draw the
line about that nasal twang" in the
American voice? 1t is there, no doubt
of that. 1t is as certainly there as the
misplaced his of the British cockney.
But it is nothing that we cannot get rid
of, and that easily. When it is brought
forward as something which should keep
distinguished gentlemen from prefer
ment, then it is time to take leave of it
at once and forever.

In Cyrus Fields advice to young men
on how to get rich he says: "Stick to
what you undertake. Be honest and be
brief. l don't believe in long business
letters There is no business so impor.
tant that you cannot put the whole of it
upon one sheet of paper"
Mr.. Field here states one of those great
modern truths that ought to sink deep
into every human soul, but which do not.
Cyrus also thinks the chances for max
ing fortune are just as good as they
ever were, only the methods are different
and large combinations of capital are
now necessary. But then several poor
persons can put their small capital to
gether in our day and make it one large
one, so that even the necessity for enor-
nous sums to begin with may be met
and fortune won, provided only people
will be brief enough. The testimony of
this man, who has managed many mill
ions and made them grow larger always,
is that he has made the cultivation of
brevity in all things prime point, ana
found that it paid.
Therefore. be brief, and you will get
rich. Whether you make call. write a
letter or preach a sermon, be brief
When you write for publication, be brief.
Make no palaver of beginning, make no
palaver of ending. Dash into the midst
of what you want to say, say it, and
stop. The essays in the magazines and
reviews could in almost every case be
shortened by at least one-half and be the
better for it. Life is too short in orr
sntury for deluge of words.

lot Water Foot Warmers.

A commission sent by the directors of
the French railways to England and
Germany to report upon the means
adopted in those countries for warming
railway carriages during the winter
finds that France has nothing to learn
from her neighbors in this respect, hot
water foot warmers similar to those in
use on French railways being employed
almost everywhere On the Northern
Of France railway, however, an import
ant experiment is about to be tried on a
large scale.
All carriages, even on short distance
trains, are to be warmed, and the warmth
is to be produced by means of boxes of
acetate of soda. SThe chemical is put in
a solid state into the boxes, and these
are then plunged into hot water about
100 dogs. The effect is that the soda be-
comes liquid. On being taken out of
the water the boxes are wiped dry and
are put into the carriages. By degrees
the soda solidifes, and as long as the
operation lasts-that is, for about five
or six hours-it gradually gives off the
heat it has absorbed in the melting pro-
cess.-London News.

Mark Twain calls for the invention Of
the phrenophone, an instrument which
will enable mankind to read one an
others thoughts through infinite dis
tances, directly, without need of cable,
telephone or telegraph. He would have
a sort of psychic telegraph, SO to speak,
which could utilize the thought current
whose existence many begin to Believe in
tap it and make it carry instantly
thoughts from one brain to another, how
soever far removed the other brain
might be. The famous humorist him
self has had experiences in which, with
out the aid of any instrument, the
thoughts of his own brain have flashed
into the brain of another, even to the
very words Mr.. Clemens was about
to utter. In the new psychic develop
ments which the race is expected to at
tain there is reason to fear this kind
of thought reading may become common,
terribly common. What then is to be-
come of civilized man?
Civilized speech is method of show
ing to others largely whst we do not
think. Ii you believe in your soul man
is liar, but do not dare tell him so,
what will you do when he reads your
mind like an open book9 When fash
ionable woman treats cordially dear
friend whom she instantly falls on and
talks about horribly the moment the
dear friend is out of sight, how will she
feel to have the lady suddenly open the
door and repeat out of her own thought
reading consciousness every word that
has been said? Terrible times there will
be then. The only safety will be in
never thinking wrong thing about any
body. In view of the possible near ap-
proach of this new psychic development,
perhaps we might begin now to think
only such thoughts as we would be will
ing to have all the world read.

Too Late with His Objections,

A marriage ceremony at Roseburg
was interrupted in sensational manner
a few evenings ago. Charles Minkler, a
freight conductor at Woodburn, was the
groom, and Lottie Critzen, of Roseburg,
the bride. During the ceremony the Of
floating minister asked if any one had
any reason why the ceremony should not
proceed.
A young dry goods clerk of Roseburg,
named Mannis, stepped forward. saying
he had serious objections. He said he
wanted to see and speak with the girl
privately. He was put out of the house
and pistol was found in his pocket. He
said he had always wanted to marry the
girl, but had never gathered courage to
tell her of his feelings. San Francisco

Mr.. Nathaniel Paige, the lawyer. had
a remarkable experience during the re-
cent storm. He was sitting at the desk
in his office on the second floor of the
Corcoran building, and at the southwest
corner, when the storm broke. The door
opening into the main hall was open,
but the door connecting with small
anteroom was closed. The upper part
was of glass. The strength of the wind
broke in the corner windows, and, pick
ing Mr.. Paige up bodily, carried him
through the door, and with the frame
hanging around him deposited him out
in the main hall, fifteen feet distant.

increased in national prosperity thereby
1t is charged, however, that the Russian
Jews are neither industrious nor thrifty,
but that they are more like the indolent
and shiftless Russian peasant If this
be true. their brethren of the same race
will speedily take them in hand and
educate them up to the requirements
of American industry. The American
Jews have prospered in the United

Boulanger and Baimaceda.

method OF getting out of his troubles

favorable auspices and apparently with
a sincere desire for the good of the re-

the military dictator In his desperate
attempt to subvert government by the
people he was overthrown and driven to
suicide
Boulanger. too, attempted to over
throw government by the people. strik-
ing like viper at the republic that had
made him Like Balmaceda. Boulanger
failed. and took himself by short cut out
of world that had no more use for
him. Some such winding up as this
will overtake every man who seeks to
crush liberty among the people and put
their necks under the foot of dictator,
whether he be czar, emperor or military
adventurer.
