Z The payment Of tho dividends Of tie Geor-
gia Central and Of the Southwestern has
] been resumed. and it is safe 10 say that all
the Ceutralis dividends and interest obliga-
tons that a! now due will be paid promptly.
/ It Is to DO regretted that there was q stop
page in their payment because it tends 60
lessen confidence in the purpose Of the Rich
mond and Danyille to pay them in the fut-
ure. But the cause Of the stoppage being
explained and the strong probability that
the difficulty that caused the stoppage will
be adjusted, there Is no coed reason for
thinking that the Richmond and Danville
will not comply with the terms OF the lease
by which it controls TIE Central.
But the action Of the Richmond and Dan
vile in attempting to compel the Central to
accept its terms Of settlement Of their diff
ferences by a method that was calculated
to greatly injure the Centrals securities
will hardly tend to make that company
popular in Georgia. 1t knew, or ought TO
have known, just what the obligations Of
the Central were which it assumed when it
took possession Of the Centrars properties,
and it ought TO have had an understanding
with respect TO them at that time. fit did
not intend to pay them 1t ought to have
said so az once. The course it pursued was
too much like the "stand and deliver"
policy.
Now that the dividend question is out Of
the way il is probable that the scheme for
the reorganization of the Richmond Ter
minal properties will be proceeded with.
Mr.. Oloott has appointed his committee,
and has called upon stockholders for prox-
les with which to represent them at any
meetings which may be held. 1t is inti>
mated that the committee will be ready to
draft a plan for reorganization about Jan.
G. The interested parties appear to have a
good deal of confidence in Gen. Thomas
ability to finanoier the Terminal out of its
difficulties. They will be gratified if they
find the outcome justifies their confidence.

Betting Against "a Sure Thing.

The barber had cut the hair of the man in
the chair without saying a word, gasps the
Chicago Daily Tribune, and looked as if he
were about to call out next" when the man
said
III take a shave"
The barber shaved him in silence and when
he had finished the operation the customer
spoke again:
Sea foam"
For the next five OF ten minutes the barber
was occupied in applying and removing the sea
foam, and he preserved the same stony silence
NOW III have my whiskers trimmed"
This operation was performed and still the
operator spoke not.
You may curl my mustache"
This was done, but not word passed the lips
Of the artist.

The barber shook his head
Then the customer got out of his chair As
he paid the bill GO cents to the man behind the
cigar case he remarked In a casual way that
that barber talked less than any barber he had
ever seen.
Talk" said the man behind the cigar case:
he talkf He's mute. He lost his speech
when he was boy. He has spoken word for

A Little Setback for Hill

Some time ago the jackson Club of Co
lumbus, o., decided to have banquet on
the anniversary Of the battle Of New Or
| friends In Columbus and 80 has Gov. Hill.
The friends of Mr.. Cleveland got the i'm
preston somehow or other that the friends
of Gov Hill intended to turn the banquet
into Hill boom. and week ago last Tues
day night, when many Of Gov. Hills friends
| we're absent, the club adopted resolutions
which were uncomplimentary to Gov. Hill.
This action caused a good deal of bad
feeling among the members, and last Tues
day evening Gov. Hills friends undertook
TO have the resolutions expunged from the
record. There was very lively discussion
aud an exhibition of a great deal of feeling.
The friends of Gov. Hill, however, were
not able to carry out their purpose. They
refused to submit peacefully to their defeat
aud left the hall Of the club.
1t looks as IL this Cleveland-Hill con-
troversy would greatly weaken, If not de-
stroy, the club. 1t Is greatly TO be re-
| GREETED that such a controversy was started.
While 1t Is hardly probable that It will ex-
tend to the other clubs, still, there is danger
| Of it's doing 80.
In order to insure the Democratic party
success in the approaching national contest
it is necessary that there shall be harmony
| in the party. The success OF the party
| should be regarded as of much greater i'm
portance than the success of any presiden-
| tial candidate. 1t is to be expected, of
| course, that democrats will differ as to who
should be the psrty's candidate for Presi-
dent, but there is no reason why their diff
| ferences should be carried to the length of
breaking up political clubs ana destroying
party harmony.

Gus idleness and high living garnished with
dainty bouquets that have lately become the

Ksnsans are beginning talk strongly OF
giving the senatorship to the editor of the
Topeka Capitol. Petitions Cor the purpose of
influencing Gov. Humphrey to that end are
said to be pouring in upon the executive
from all over the state. Evidently Editor
Hudson is very popular man i'll spite Of HE
consistent opposition to the jerry Simpson
crowd. But Gov. Humphrey is q somewhat
head-strong man aud there is no question
about the strong ''pull' of the Atchinson,
Topeka and Santa Fe railway In the ooun-
ellis of the Republican party of the state.
Since 1t was ingalls, who rescued George

Ingalls, Counsel Peck could scarcely afford
to throw up salary of $3.50 year on a
life tenure for q temporary senatorship at
1000 year. Therefore he is not likely to

such a good office as that lying around

a Warning to Dun Preacbers.

Mr.. l., clergyman, had accepted an in
vitation to talk to the patients of an insane
asylum, says I'd BITS. In his address be said
he tried to talk on subjects they could grasp
readily, using language that was simple. One
of the subjects treated was that of the mothers
who threw their children into the Ganges,
thinking they were appeasing the wrath OF the
gods, During his talk about this Mr. L
noticed enc Of his congregation, a man
who had his eyes riveted upon him. The
mans face was a study. His attitude was so
direct and so hendish that 1t ANNOYED the
speaker. After the discourse Mr.. l. went
among the patients. He met the man with the
gisring eyes and took his hand. The minister
told him he had noticed his close attention to
some portions Of the sermon. 81 noticed. " said
Mr.. L, that you were particularly inter
ested when spoke about the mothers throwing
their babies into the River Ganges, | would

preacher and replied: II was wondering why

Reckless Railroading.

Such a succession of disastrous accidents
on the New York Central railway has
lately followed close in the wake of one au-
other that the road really seems 10 be under
the ban Of some mysterious fatality or else
it is the victim of some subtle scheme Of
vindictive spite
1t scarcely seems creditable that any In
dustrial organization Of 80 thorough a
character and long standing as this road
disasters at short intervals as a result Of
mere coincidence or unavoidable mishap.
Therefore the surnlse Of covert design 10 by
no means unreasonable
But the question that naturally follows
such q conjecture is essentially as to the
possible identity of the mysterious insti-
gators of these malignant atrocities.
Whether such an hypothesis has In It the
merit of probability or not it is at least
worthy of searching inquiry and that
should be Immediately given it. Human
life is far too precious to be imperled
merely TO crafty the malice of any one.
Nor should it be jeopardized through the
willful carelessness of those whose duty re-
Quires them TO protect it.
Mauifestly that brakeman caused the
death Of all those unfortunate people at
Hastings station by the grosSest Of careless
ness or by deliberate design. In either
eventit appears that hts superiors are indi-
rectly responsible TO the extent of contribu-
tory negligence In not looking after the
man more closely.
