Mr.. PRICE SHOULD BE RE-
NOMINATED.

Heretofore the SENTINEL has alb
stained from expressing its choice tor
congressman, because 1t believed if
the present incumbent insisted on reti-
ring, it would best subserve the inter
ests of the Democracy to let the divers
aspirants Ton the nomination take
an equal chance before the people,
without the advocacy of the press. 1t
was for this reason that it pledged its
support in advance to the nominee of
the Democratic party aud expressed
the opinion that any OF tie known as
pirants for that nomination WOULD
make a worthy representative.
But on the eve OF the convention. Il
careful survey of the situation convin-
ces us that it is expedient to urge the
denomination of Il distinguished fell
low-paIishoner, for the important DO
sition which he has ably and faithfully
filled for the last three years. We are
disposed to respect the wishes and
desires OF Mr.. Price for the peace and
quiet of private life !; and but for the
fact that we consider the times critical.
and the services of an experienced re-
preventative to look af,er the varied
interests III the coming Congress al
most indispensable, we would not be
among those urging upop him the fur
ther sacrifice OF his private interests
for the commo veal. Grave ques-
lions affecting the whole country and
the interests of this district in particu-
lar, are sure to be sprung III the COM
ing Congress, no matter which of the
great national parties wins the presi-
dency. Should the Democracy gain
the great battle now waging, we will
feel safe, but should che god Of war de-
eide in favor of the enemies of the
South, then, indeed, will there be dam
ger ahead, and will we need the yalu-
able services OF al experienced hand
TO aid our friends of the North to fight
our battles in the dalls of Congress. A
new member, however learned, able
aud talented lit might be, could nOE
render tie same services, as tile one
who has already leaned i'll the school
of experience to safeguard our inter-
ests. We say this without ~disparage-
ment to tho patriotism, devotion Or
ability OF any ot the aspiraEts for the
nomination, but because we sincerely
believe that Mr.. Price should at this
critical III nHent succeed himself.
He has been Il faithful representative:
he has devotion and patriotism he
should be asked again by the c%onyen-
ton to make the sacrifice of his prl-
vate interests nee more for the public
good.
For the reasons given above. We ear
nestly urge the congressional eonven-
ton that meets on ext Wednesday,
the 21st inst. to nominate the Hon. An
drew Price ; and if nominated, as We
sincerely hope he will be, we feel con-
fdent that for the same reasons Mr..
Price cannot and will not refuse to &C
cept the nomination and be again once
more the standard bearer of the Sd
Congressional District.

WARNING THE CROWD.

Colors

The Tobacco Fiend Was Shown in His True
Colors.
As the train stopped at small sta
ton in Kentucky it was discovered that
a switch engine had run off the track
just beyond and wrecking crew were
at work getting her off The conductor
said he would be detained half an hour,
and many of us went up to see the
wreckers at work There was a crowd
of fifty around the spot when a fat,
good-na tured looking man who had a
mouth big enough to take in half a
pumpkin pie, came sauntering up and
bowed and smiled to everybodv He
was just getting ready to say some
thing when a little skinny man with a
piping voice, cried ont at him:
Don't yo' do it, Sile Davis-don't yo'
do it! If yo' do I'll give yo' dead away"
The good-natured man fell back at
this, and saw him wink and motion to
the skinny man to draw aside for con-
fab.
Il don't want no truck with yo, Sile
week I'd do it, and so | will; yo' Jest
keep shet."
The language aroused our curiosity,
as a matter of course, and we were
anxious for the explanation when it
came. The fat man walked around for
a minute or two, and when he thought
the other was not looking he slipped up
to one of our crowd and softly re-
marked:
stranger, would yo' mind lendin'
me a chaw of plug tobacker fur day

FiNDING-FAUlT.
How to Censure When Censure Is Neces-
sary.

sary.
1t may seem superfluous to begin by
saying, Don't find fault at all when
you can possibly avoid IT." Nevertheless,
| this is a very important first rule; for
in order to make necessary fault-fnd-
ing count, and be of any real use to
yourself, to the delinquent individual,
or to both, all needless. superfiuous and
aimless fault-fnding must be avoided
Three times out of four fault-fnding is
merely an expression of impotence
and the only good it does is to relieve the
irritable feeling caused by the careless
ness, stupidity or other defects of those
with whom we have daily intercourse.
To begin with, on every occasion where
there is no reasonable hope of doing
good by fault-fnding, seal your lips as
with a bar of iron.
Next, almost always postpone fault
consideration. Do not speak at the
moment the fault has Just been com
mitted. However deserved, and even
mild, the reproof may be, the culprits
mind is not in state to receive and as
simulate it. When Bridget has Just
broken your best India china soup tn
reen, she is so disturbed by the accident
that she hears you say, Bridget, do
you not remember have often told you
not to carry that tureen on tray with
other dishes. but always 10 lift it with
both hands" etc, with vague sense
that you are ''scolding" her, and it is
very disagreeable Yor are fortunate If
she does not reply with some fretful
self-justifcation. When the mind is off
its balance, and the nerves agitated, it
Is not the moment to irritate still
further. The more childish, undevel-
oped and ill-regulated the character the
less is the hope of doing good b. such a
method.
To simplify the case, I will suppose
that you are dealing with domestics
only. To treat the question OF finding
fault with children would involve too
many side issues
Here, then, offer two very simple
rules DO not pretend that they cover
the whole ground, but they viii be OF

THE SITUATION ON MARS.
How the Ruddy Planet Appears Through
Telescope.


The first sight of Mars through an OBJ
servatory telescope is almost terrify-
ing, even for a person Of good nerves
1t Is as if one saw the whole earth, with
its icy poles, as solid globe, floating
overhead. One distinguishes clearly
the dark blue seas and the brilliant,
beaminy. many-hued dry land-and on
this the dry beds of a multitude of
lakes, bays. gulf, streams and canals.
these latter either parallel 70 each other
or crossing one another AT right angles.
As You continue 10 look. you note the
variations of color and OF light and

MANHOOD RESTORED.

| gree of development in Mars. The con-
tinents of the earth, seen from dis
lance, present very torn appearance,
and occupy scarcely third of its sur
face, while Mars is girdled on both
sides of the equator by one continuous
mainland, intersected by network of
canals and rivers, the land occupying
approximately three-fourths of the
whole area of the planet and the water
only one-fourth, as consequence of
which it may be that its atmosphere is
less clouded and vapor-laden than ours.
Peculiarly characteristic is the ar
rangement in which the geological ma
ture of Mars has laid out the streams
(canals?). All our streams, without
exception, are tortuous, and all in-
crease in width as they near the ocean.
On Mars, on the contrary, the streams
flow in straight lines, and are of uni
form width from source to mouth.
These streams, from seventy TO one
hundred kilometers apart, have their
banks SO well defined as to suggest the
idea that they are subject to intelligent
regulation. 1t is hardly possible to
conceive that two parallel canals, in
tersected at right angles by third as
in Opher land, can be the work of ele-
mentary forces of nature. The ques-
ton suggests itself again by the two
canals which flow from ocean to ocean
through the island Hellas. crossing
each other at right angles in the CEN
ter. Not less questionable is the origin
of the great blue Lake Of the Sun in
the center of Keppler land, with its
three rectilinear canals connecting it
with the ocean.
Ever and ever the question recurs. Is
it possible that the crust of a planet
whose density is only seven-tenths less
than that of the earth can be SO that
the streams at their origin encountered
no impeachment to their direct course?
Or have they really been regulated by
the inha bitants of Mars-an engineer
ing feat presenting, perhaps, few seri-
Gus difficulties?
But what most excites our aston
ishment in connection with these
canals is that almost every one of them
is double, i. e., it has its parallel canal
only. This has thoroughly perplexed
all Investigators The earth has moth
ing analogous to aid us to solution.
On this account the return of Mars is
looked forward to with considerable in
terest. The improvement in optical in
struments within the past decade may
probably help to solve the riddle, or
what is perhaps still more probable,
may present more riddles of solution.
The occasion of Mars next return will
be the first time for fifteen years that
we shall have an opportunity of examin-
ing his south polar region. Apart from
the scientific interest which attaches to
these observations, it is an immense
gain to our intellectual culture to over
throw the pride, born of ignorance,
which in earlier centuries prompted
man to regard this earth as the one in
habited sphere of the universe. Equal
rights for all planets appear to be the
law of nature, which certainly has not
all her forces on this dark
clod of ours.-Yankee Blade.
