instruments which accompanies them.
There is nothing in the slightest inn
proper in these dances. which is more
than can be said of the dances of the
Persians and Egyptians The dancers
are comedy and seem possessed OF fine
sense of propriety. Their costumes are
picturesque and their heads. necks and
arms are loaded with odd ornaments of
metal and stones or glass beads
The next theater is that of the South
Sea islanders on the opposite side of
the Plaisance. Here the natives of the
Samoan islands give their strange songs
and dances all day long and far into
the night, making but brief pauses for
rest and refreshment
Further along. on tn. north side of
the Plaisanee, we come to the Persian
theater, which of late has figured prom
inently in the law courts. Several in

been satisfactorily settled, as the dances
are still given. though perhaps in a
somewhat modified form.
These dances. which have gained for
the Persian theater great deal of no

of an ancient religious rite, but it is

heard from since he left here Saturday
morning. It now turns out that his
shortage in the Lease district fund
alone is over 500, coo. The treasurer
of the United States turned over to
him s1,545. 800. There were 1919
Choctaws, registered to draw s103 per
capita Out of this number something
near fifty failed to draw If they had
all drawn it would have taken s1.416,-

s129, i53. To this he has a credit of
s24, 727, but it will take about $4,000
from it to pay the balance of claims
that are registered. There is Sl84, 727

The WishinS-Chair.

At the worlds fair there is wish
ing-chair," which is built exactly like
the famous old wishing-chair in the
Giants Causeway. County Donegal,
roland. The chair is a big fat rock
surrounded by other rocks, in the
midst of which it nestles as snugly as
if it had been built there, instead of be-
ing placed there by nature. The story
of the wishing-chair is that anyone
who sits in it and makes wish will
have his wish fulfilled inside of a year.
At the worlds fair the wishing-chair is
occupied by some one all the time. and
many are the wishes that are made
there. One little girl sat in the wish
ing-chair and wished that her dolls
would ali turn into candy, so that she
could eat them And cunning little
boy who had to be helped into the
chair wished that he could live in a
circus-tent and feed the animals pea
nuts every day of his life. 1t is said
that the wishing-chair sometimes dis
appoints people by not fulfilling their
wishes: but when that is the case it is
because they have changed their minds
about wanting the wish grati6ed. The
Irish people, who are TO be seen in the
chair every day, almost always wish
for better times for their native land.
And surely we can all hope that all
good things will be theirs.

He represented the Sixth district of
Georgia in 10consecutive congresses, and
under such peculiar and varying circum-
stances as to make his career a sort of
congressional political romance. He was
first elected in 1872 and served continu-
ously until March 4, 1898, when he re-
tired voluntarily.
Mr.. Blount was born in Georgia Sept
IL, 1887, and during the civil war fought
brayely on the Confederate side, but
when the matter was fought to finish
he devoted all his energies to healing
the breaches of war, and the restored
union has no stronger defender than he
Heis stoutly built and broad shouldered,
with blue eyes, thick hair, now rather
gray, and a smoothly shaven face. His
method Of speaking is rather slow and
dehberative-inleed at the start he seems
heavy if not dull-bat as he goes on he
becomes more animated, and his SEN
fences contain a rude and pure elo-
quence.
1t is known that he first suggested to
President Cleveland the plan of sending
some one TO investigate the condition OF
the islands, and it is believed that he was
selected because his temperament is that
of judge rather than an advocate. At
first view one would take him for man
swayed very little indeed by sentiment,
and yet it is fact that he is most popu-
lar among the most enthusiastic and
sentimental Of north Georgians. At his
home in Macon and i'm the adjacent re-
gion he is extremely popular, yet his men
tai makeup is that of a judge, of man
quite slow and deliberate in arriving at
conclusions.

her home on Tuesday evening by a
party of about fifty young friends, who
gathered at her home to participate in
her birthday festivities. Miss Kittie
Rogers and Leila Folsom conducted the
arrangements for the party, which was
gotten up by these young ladies and
the family, and was a complete sur
prise to Miss Gussie, who had been
kept away from the house while the
preparations were being made. The
rooms were handsomely decorated with
flowers and evergreens, and large
number of valuable presents testified
the popularity of the young recipient.
Dancing and games were the entertain
ment Of the evening, Mr., Sam Rosen-
baum lending valuable aid la amusing
the children who did not take part
in the games.

Pierpont Langley, who has devoted many
years of study to the subject. So there
really is some ground for hope of its sue
cess.
The general plan is that indicated by
Roger Bacon, who in the thirteenth cen
fury wrote this: There may be some
flying instrument so made that man
sitting in the middle Of it and turning
crank TO pnt in motion some artificial
wings may beat the air like bird and
fly" In truth. however, the man in
Professor Langley's plan is only to di-
rect the motor force, which is a very vol
atile hydrocarbon, and the method OF
preparing it is as yet secret. The
whole machine, says the professor.
weighs but 40 pounds, as the strong ribs
and beams are made of fine alloy Of
aluminium and steel, and the four boilers
are Of very finely hammered copper and
weigh but seven pounds each.
The name of the inventor, however.
carries more weight than any possible
description of the machine or demonstra-
ton of its practicability. Professor
Langley was born Aug. 90, 1894, in Rox-
bury, Mass, and first became noted in
1855 as assistant in the Harvard obserya-
tory. He was soon called to the chair of
mathematics in the United States Naval
academy at Annapolis, and in 1877 was
appointed assistant secretary of the
Smithsonian institution. On the death
Of Professor Baird he became full score.
tary.
Professor Langley's work as assistant
and recorder during total ecGpses is well
known to the reading public, and his sci
entifc papers are numerous and highly
regarded. He has made many expert
ments looking toward practical fyinl
machine, and has succeeded in making /,
few models which would rise in the ali
and continue to float as long as themo
tive power lasted. The great difficulty
Of course, has been to secure material
containing strength and hghtness, ant
this he thinks he has accomplished in tn,

for his machine he has taken the BODY
Of the mackerel, and for the wings thu

wait for is the practical test.

Rheumatism Quickly Cured

Three days is very short time in
which to cure bad case of rheuma-
tism. but it can be done, if the proper
treatment is adopted, as will be seen by
the following from James Lambert, OF

afflicted with rheumatism in the hips
and legs when 1 bought bottle Of
Chamberlain's Pain Balm. 1t cured
me in three days. 1 am all right today;
and would insist on every one who is

use Chamberlain's Pain Balm and get
