Amusing Experience of a Man Who Resem-
 bles Governor Mckinley.


 bles Governor Mckinley.
 Ex-State Senator Jeremiah Sullivan of Ohio looks enough like Governor McKin- ley to make many people think that he is Ohios chief executive, says the New York Tribune. He retired from politics some time ago. He was at the Imperial hotel recently, and, speaking of this re- semblance, said:
 q have often been mistaken for the governor, and at times it is embarrass- ing. I remember one odd incident. I was going up to Sandusky at the time the Grand Army of the Republic encamp- ment was held there. l got on the train, and in passing through the car saw two ladies whom I had met but once. I bowed and when I started one of the ladies said:
 "'Oh I want to ask you how you are. I read in the papers every day Of how you are flying over the country, ,and I am afraid they are killing our dear gov ernor. I really am worried, and
 "I beg your pardon I managed to say. She was one of these vivacious women and hard to interrupt. Before I could say any more she went on:
 "Do you know, 1 haven't seen you since I met you year ago in Canton I was down there and
 Ut was not in Canton you met me- said, and then I went on: Tt was in Fremont about year ago. My name is Sullivan, but I have met you, so you are not talking to an entire stranger
 "Well, she looked at me and simply could say nothing She had committed herself. We laughed it off, however, and had good time over it. That only goes to show how much better it is to be gov ernor than an ex-state senator. I don't think, however, that my resemblance will ever secure for me tender of the presi- dential nominat tion."

VOICE OF THE PEOPLE
The Midsummer Carnival.


 Your suggestion that the carnival to be given by the veterans on August 20 should be called the Harvest Carnival' is apropos; but the name Midsummer Carnival was adopted last June, when it was intended to give the entertainment on the Fourth of July. It was then con cluded to postpone it on account of the large number of entertainments on the Fourth. So the date was postponed, but the name was not changed If the car nival had been given on the Fourth there doubtless would have been more fire works and spread-eagle speeches. but now that the time has been changed to August 29 there will be a more elaborate programme. The military drill will be a feature, and it is probable that the Uniform Rank, Knights of Pythias, will take part. The carnival will be gen. eral outpouring of the people.

 MORE MONEY THAN IN THE BOOM.

The report of the Comptroller of the Currency, published in the Age-Herald yesterday, affords an opportunity for several valuable deductions and compar- isons The individual deposits in the national banks of Alabama show a de- crease of $545 079 from May to July II. This is explained by the fact that Ala bama is an agricultural State, and the loan by the banks to the planters is made for a year. It is only in the ag- ricultural section that the deposits have decreased. In this city the deposits have increased. The banks of Birmingham on May ' showed deposits of &. POO, 900. and on July II of $24S0,000. The depos- it's in the Birmingham banks are greater now than in the boom year of 1886 The Comptrollers report for October, T, 1886. banks to have been $2.001, ,511, while on amounted to $2,4S0.043.
 Not only does Birmingham make a good showing as compared to the boom year, but so does the entire State as we'll On the Eth day of October, 1886, the deposits of all the Alabama national banks amounted to $3,35012S, and on July H. 1895, to $5672, ,S3D, showing an in- crease of $2,S22,702.
 These figures have been compiled with much care and some trouble and are sufficient answer to the argument that we are suffering for a lack of money to carry on business. There was more bus iness transacted in the boom year than any year since, yet there was no com plaint of the lack of money.

preme court of Alabama rendered de- cision in the Joe Burton case, which re yersed the verdict of the trial in the cir cult court held at this place in May. As soon as this was known attorneys for Burton applied to Judge Crook for bail. The case was set for last Tuesday and Judge Crook, having been notified by Messrs Merrill and Bridges, attorneys for the prosecution, that they would not he present, allowed young Burton bail on a bond of $2500. The bond was prepared and sent to C1eburne county to be signed. On Wednesday morning the older brother of Joe came over to Jacksonville with one of the strongest bonds ever filed in the county. It is said to be good for $100,- GOO. The bond was accepted, and for the first time in seven months Joe Burton left the jail unattended by an officer.
