CONCERNING SOME FOLKS.

Some folks is alters grumblin', no matter
what they've got,
| A-finding fault with what they have and want
in what they've not,
| And you'd think to hear 'em kickin an cuss-
in of their luck,
| That the worlds a bad investment an the
Lords gettin' stuck;
An it rifles me up to hear 'em a-complainin'
all the time,
With their measly misconception of the works
O. the Sublime,
An it sets me to refectin' on the merits of the
case,
An drawin' of conclusins appertainin' to
the race
Till I've sorter got to thinkin' that's its sin
ful to complain;
That there's jest as much of pleasure as there
ever was O. pain;
That there amt no more to cuss about than
what there is to bless,
An things are pretty ekally divided up
guess,
For when you strike balance 'twixt the
shadder and the sun,
The two viii alters ekallize when al is said
and done;
An the world is balanced -, er it wouldn't
spin arOun'
For the hills'll fill the hollers when the thing
is leveled down,
There's another old time doctrine, and I've
found it's mighty true.
That you never get thing without a-losing
somethn' too;
That there never was gam without CORE
spending loss,
That you re not going to wear q crown un-
less you bear the cross,
And when you see a pint IN life the where
you'd like to get,
You may make it soon or later, but you'll
pay fur it, you bet.
A man may get the larnin' Of the sciences an
sich,
An another deal in futures an may strike it
sudden rich;
But the first has lost the peace of mind that
ouce he used to feel,
An the last has lost the relish of the hard
earned, honest meal,
An when you see a teller's got things extra
nice,
You can gamble that fur all he's got he has
paid the market price,
And if your life was figured out | will tell
you what my friend,
You'd find it balanced just the same as his'n
at the end
Then quit your fool complaining an study
ing how to shirk,
For the time you spend in cussin you can bet
ter spend in work.
Things do take on bilious look at times, /
must admit
But a-Sicking and complaining won't help The
thing a bit.
And the clouds that come a drifting by will
vanish onesby one,
And a peering from behind them is the glory
of the sun.
There's as much of sun as shadder in every
drop of dew,
There's as much of day as darkness when you
take the year all through;
There is as much of sun as shadder in every
human heart.
And of day and night in every life you-will
find an equal part,
And should there be residue standing in
either way,
The Lord will make it equal on the other side
some day.
"A. B. Paine in the Epoch.

Charming Elsie Leslie.

The sale of seats for 1.-THE Prince and
Pauper' will begin this morning. The play
will be seen this week for the first time in
Savannah. The chief interest of the play
is conferred in little Elsie Leslie. whose age
and size exactly suit her to, the part she has
to assume. She has a greater opportunity
to display her dramatic ability in this play
than abe had In her original character OF
Little Lord Fanntleroy." Both as the
prince" and as the "Pauper" she is
said to be very effective. "The
Prince and the Pauper" scored a success in
the principal cities Of the country last sea-
son, and night and matinee performances
we're crowded to witness the acting of little
Elsie. The comedy OF the play is delicate
but enjoyable, and in sharp contrast to the
almost melodramatic scenes at other times.

Daniel Frohman has out on the road. and
whatever is under his management ia al-
ways presented in excellent style.

A JUROR NOT a CITIZEN.
An Effort to Nullify the Golfers Sta
Robbers Trial

An Effort to Nullify the Golfers Sta
Robbers Trial.
The discovery that one of the grand jury
which indicted the Golfers station express
robbers at Forsyth is not a citizen of the
United States has raised the question
whether all Of the findings Of the jury are
null and void and the express robbers will
have to be tried over again.
The question was raised Friday by an at
torney who asked that bill OF indictment
against negro charged with misdemelnor
be dismissed on account Of its illegality.
His grounds for the point of illegaliry were,
as stated, that a member of the grand jury
was not d cttizsn Of the Unite6 States. and
that all business done by the jury was null
and void.
Judge Boynton sustained the attorney,
and ordered the jury to their room to do
over the work that they have labored on for
the last two weeks. A Forsyth special says
the town is wrought up over the affair, as
the juror is a respected citizen, and, in ad-
dition to that, the train robbers will have
to be tried again if they make a fight on
the illegaIity OF the indictment.
The grand jury was ready for adjourn
ment, and was in the court room to read it's
general presentment when the point was
made.
Hon. 4. q. duBignon, who was one Of the
prosecuting attorneysin the case against the
express robbers, says the question Of lille
galty will not affect that case, which has
been tried, and the defendants were col
victed and sentenced, as the point was not
raised at the trial. Other cases which had
not been tried when the discovery that one
OF the grand jury was not citizen was
made, and in which the question is raised,
will, he understands, have to be acted upon
by another grand jury before they are
brought to trial.

The floor OF the hanging cell will be low
