ment at his audacious scientific and theo-
logical theories.
de has strong mentality, this swarthy,
untutored child of nature, and a courage
that comes Of boundless faith in his own
singular convictions. He is a psychological
study.
The masterpiece of this notable mans
life, the folklore" effort that will live in
tradition when the voices OF cultured ora
tors contemDoraneous with him have been
forgotten, is his wOrli-famed sermon on
The Sun Do Novel" This extraordinary
production is one Of the intellectual curios
tiles of the age. The very phrase itself.

conveys, has taken Judgment in the roper

Jasper was born slave near Richmond.

career, which he has been enjoying for
hfty-seven years, has been in nowise handi-
capped by a total lack of book larnin' on
the part of the wonderful parson. Time

1t has been truly said that half the world
does not know how the other half lives.
Comparatively few of US have perfect
health, owing to the impure condition of
our blood. But we rub along from day to
day, with scarcely a thought, unless forced
to our attention, of the thousands all about
us who are suffering from scrofula, salt
rheum and other serious blood disorders, and
whose agonies can only be imagined. The
marked success OF Hoods Sarsaparilla for
these troubles, as shown in our advertising
columns frequently certainly seems to justify
urging the use Of this excellent medicine by
all who know that their blood is disordered.
Every claim in behalf of Hoods Sarsaparilla
is fully backed up by what the medicine ha
done and is still doing, and when its pro-
prietors ulge its merits and its use upon all
who suffer from impure blood, in great or
small degree, they certainly mean TO include

Our Georgia Biographical Departm emit
From the Old Homestead

FROM the Ot0 Homestead.
We begin in this number of the Old
Homestead what will be one of the most
interesting and valuable features of our
paper.
We have organized Georgia biographical
department, and will give in each issue an
accurate, carefully prepared and finely
written sketch, illustrated with an elegant
engraving and autograph, of one of the dis
tlnguished representative men or women of
Georgia. And we shall keep up this mag
nificent series of personal histories of the
successful spirits that have made the great
ness OF Georgia, until the record is COM
plete.
These biographies will have a special
value. While absolutely accurate, the facts
having been CLEANED from authentic sources
and verified. the eminent ladies and gentle
men thus honored will have a pleasant
surprise in seeing themselvesthus preserved
without their knowledge or agency. These
sketches will, therefore, have the merit of
an unpaid impartiality.
We shall not confine ourselves to the pub-
lie men OF the state, but shall include our
representative leaders in every business
calling-in art, industry, trade, law.
journalism, manufactures, the ministry.

honor none, and giving recognition to all.

LIQUOR SELLING IN NORWAY.
How 1t Differs From the Systems of
American Cities.
From the Boston Advertiser


In Norway the city government fixes the
number of liquor licenses required to meet
the reasonable conveniences of the public"
but all licenses are granted as monopoly
for five years to a single company, or
society, as they call it, which is organized
for the sole purpose Of doing all the retail
liquor business in the city where it exists.
This society has board of management,
part Of which is chosen by the share
holders, and the remainder is chosen or ap-
pointed by the city.
The dividends on the stock Of the company
are limited by law to 5 per cent, and all the
surplus, instead of going into the city treas
ury, as in the "Gothenberg system" which
is said to encourage city governments to
grant more licenses than the good of the
community requires, must, under the Nor
wegian system, be applied to deserving
charities or other objects of public utility,
excluding all which receive any pecuniary
aid, however small, from the city.

Mayor and Common Coun- cil of the CIty of Tombstone: The undersigned taxpayers of the City of Tombstone respectfully represent 10 the Honorable Mayor and Common Council of the City of Tombstone, that the design of appropriating thei moneys of the taxpayers 10 the purpose of nak- ing extraordinary CT any repairs upon the City Water Works will be useless and unnecessary application of the public moneys.
 The water supply to the City and con sumers furnished oy the HuachucaWa Co is, and will be, undoubtedly ample 10 answer every requirement and we are informed by tina; company that no IBtS n ton exists of raising the water rates. We therefore pray that no steps be taken in the premises looking to any further expenditures upon the city water works.
 We believe that the lim;I of corporate indebtedness is already nearly reached, and if this a temp; 10 repair these works, which brings no appreciabIe revenue 10 the city is carried out. the four per cent limit of corporate indebtedness will be necessarily exceeded,

THE supreme court Of California has just decided in the matter Of pay ment of the salaries of deputy officials out of the county treasury, The law there provides as it doee here Tor the payment of officials only. By the de- cision referred to, officers who appoint deputies will be required to pay them out of their own salaries. The court held that in effect it was a raise in the salary of the official when the law provides that there shall be no in- crease in compensation during hi: term of office There Is such law on the Statutes of Arizona and nc doubt the California decision will form . precedent in similar cases in Arizo- na.-Phenix Herald.
