The Soldiers Home.

The last legislature declined to accent the
property at Atlanta which is offered to the
state as a soldiers home, and this legislature
is asked to accept it. The bill for that pur>
pose will come up for action in the House
next Wednesday. The condition connected
with its acceptance is that the state shall
make an appropriation of $4,000 annually
for the maintenance of the home
Is there such demand for a soldiers
home in this state as to warrant the state
In increasing the burden of the taxpayers
to the extent of 5000 a yearl There does
not seem to be any evidence that there is.
The last legislature didn't think so, and
there are many in this legislature who do
not think so.
The home was built without any sssur-
ance that the state would maintain it. If
we are not mistaken the state was not con-
suited about the matter at all. The state,
therefore, is under no obligation to accept
the property and provide for its support.
If there were old soldiers in all parts Of the
state asking that a home be provided for
them there would be pretty general feel
ing, probably, that the state ought to ac-
fifty, or even twenty-five. old soldiers who
have expressed a desire to become the oc-
cupants of home provided by the states Is
it not fact that those who would likely be-
come inmates Of the home would rather re-
main where they are, among their friends,
aud TO receive any additional aid the state
is willing TO give old soldiers in their con-
dition!
The House has just passed a bill reducing
the pensions of widows from 300 to $50 a
year. This was done because the taxpayers
complain Of their taxes. In the face of this
action how can the legislature appropriate
$4,000 year for a soldiers home when
there does not appear to be pressing need
or great demand for such homeG
Atlanta is urging acceptance OF the home,
but If there is a strong pressure in favor Of
the SIS GOO appropriation from any other
source the fact has not become widely
known.

The State Militia.

The legislature seems disposed 60 deal lib
orally with the military organizations of
the state. There are good reasons why 10
should do so. Previous Legislatures did not
do so because they failed to understand the
benefit the military organizations are to the
state. The troubles that have occurred In
Tennessee within the last year and tho dis
turDances, threatening the public peace,
that have occurred in a number Of other
states recently, have convinced this legis-
lasure that the military companies are
they cost, and that it would be the hight of
folly not to encourage them by giving them
a reasonable amount Of help.
The expenses of a member Of a military
organization are very considerable in the
course Of a year, and many members would
soon cease to bear the burden If they felt
shat their organizations were not appre-
ciated. The companies hold themselve.
ready to respond to any call the state may
make for their services, and although the
calls may be far apart, nevertheless, when
they are made they are likely to be very
imperative, requiring prompt response.
The knowledge that in different parts OF
the state there are we'll equipped military
organizations, ready to serve the state a,
short notice. has a wholesome effect. Tn,
presence of military force acts as a re-
straint upon those who would be lawless
under certain conditions.
Tue volunteer soldiery have uever beer
| extravaganza in their demands. All they
have ever asked is fair treatment, aud the
indications are they Will get that from this

Graceful Attention to an Old Man.

One of the most ingenious and graceful atten.
tions ever paid to q venerable man came from
valet to Cardinal Fleury in the last century.
The cardinal, who was 30 years old, had said in
q somewhat melancholy mood TO his valet
Barjac that be was too old, that death must
have forgotten him, but that within few DAYS
surely he should make the solemn Journey into
eternity few days later there was festival
and Bariac invited fourteen guests to dine with
the cardinal. When the cake was put on the
dinner table the cardinal said sadly, referring
to the custom of the day: 1.-The youngest person
here must cut IT, With my 90 years can only
claim the hOnorS due the Oldest of the company
But" said his right hand neighbor, Princess
Monttarey, Il was born Jan IS, 1851, and so
am Two years older than your eminence."
And ]" said the Marquise de Flavacourt
who sat at the cardinals left, must own to 81
years"
And so the members OF the company went
on telling their ages. all more than the years Of
the cardinal, until he exclaimed:
rs 1t p ssible that | am the youngest one
present. that am to cut the cakel"
"Of course, of COURSE" urged bis delighted
guests.
rs 1t chance or plotf' asked the old man
Just then he caught sight of Barjac's smiling
face and understood his old servants kind
stratagem.

Els First MARRIAGE seruica.

There is new justice Of the peace in Gam
den, says the Philadelphia Record. He is mao
who knows little about a good many things,
but not much about any one, and last week he
gave startling example of the truth of the
saying that little knowledge is a dangerous
thing.
Two young persons from the rural section Of
the county came to him TO be married, and as it
was the worthy mans first experience in per
forming the ceremony he was intensely DESTROYS
of acting in the most approved form.
John Doe, d." he said in a severe tone, do you
take this woman, Mary Roe, to be your welded
wife?"
Yes" replied John. Say 4 do" said the
justice sternly. II do" corrected John.
"And Mary Roe, do you take this man, John
Doe, to be your welded husband, and if so, say
L do and not yes
y do whispered the blushing maiden.
"Then pronounce you both man and wife, 1"
concluded the justice in tones OF the deepest
solemnity.

From the Nsto York Journal of Commerce (Ind.)

A Prospective Collision.

There are said to be six comets sailing
around the empyrean, one of which is
headed straight for the earth. This pros
pectiva visitor some astronomers believe to
be Bielas comet. and Prof Colbert, of
Chicago, says it is coming full tilt this way.
However, he gives US consolation by saying
that the tail OF the comet and not its head
will, fguratively speaking. strike the earth,
and that the tail will be smashed into ever
lasting smithereens.
lnasmuch as the tail Of a comet ia known
to be material matter separated from the
main body Of the comet which, entering the
air as small particles, are soon heated to in
candescence by the friction and burned up,n
it is not to be supposed that the tail of this
comet will strike the earth solid blow and
smash things, but when the comets tail
enters the earth's atmosphere that part of
the incandescent comet-dust affected by it
will be cooled, and minute particles OF ashes
will settle to the ground for weeks or months
ofterward. The immediate and only visible
result Of such collision might be celestial
pyrotechnic display, such as occurred in
1882 and again. on a smaller scale, twenty
years ago. On those occasions a great
number Of shooting stars" was noted.
Some gaseous matter might accompany
the ashes and poison the atmosphere &C.
