Written on the death Of Abner ]. Gorst by his
aunt. Mrs. Sarah C. Beckwith, OF Milton, Cali
fornia
Again the angel hath entered our door;
The dark winged angel we fear and dread.
In one swift moment from us he bore
Our darling boy to the silent dead.
We long for the clasp Of his manly hand.
We list in vain for his CHEEKY voice;
We trust he is safe with the angel band
But cur aching hearts cannot rejoice.
Our hopes are crushed by this sudden blow,
q. Our faith is dimmed by these falling tears,
We cannot see in this storm of woe
The weary path of the coming years.
oh help us, God, this cross to bear
Till the battle is fought, the victory won.
While we meekly fold our hands In prayer
And say from the heart, Thy Will be done.

NT0thel5 wno have founded and mann tained the Peoples institute. In con noction with his proposed enlargement of the scope of the institute work Bishop FallOws recently outlined in The Trib- uno his plans for establishing a series of home saloons. " The plans have been worked out in detail, and the first two of the saloons arc promised to be estab- lished within a fortnight. There has been slight departure from the origi- nal plans, and instead of the nome sa- looms being all of the same class there will be as many degrees of variation as in the original alcoholic dispensaries. The first ones to be established as an ex- pertinent will both be located in the heart of tho down town district One will dispense cent drinks and the other 10 cent drinks. One will cater to the barrel house or grogshop constituency, and the other will compete with the bars where the mirrors arc of beveled glass, the bars of mahogany, the drinks l , cents each, and where the luncheon and side dish of olives is presided over by white aproned attendant. Both will be opened in large basements, the only difference between the and 10 cent saloon being i'll the magnifioence of the furnishings and the elaboratencss of the free lunch. Bishop Fallows said yes terday
 What puzzled us most was to pro- vide some drink that would take the place of beer. We shall offset whisky, brandy and rum with soda water, ckeco- late, coffee, mineral waters, matted milk, cocoa, lemonade, etc, but at first there appeared to bo no substituto for beer We resolved to mako one Expert chemists have been at work on the prob lem for some time, and tho solution is at hand. We have 8 new drink the color of beer and scarcely to be distinguished from it, but of course it is nonalcoholic and nonfermontiye Hops enter into its position-something that cannot be said of some of the beer sold over Chioa- go bars. The only difficulty we have yet to overcome is to do away with some of the bitterness imparted to the beer by tho hops.
 After much discussion of details we have determined to open saloons ill the district where rents arc highest and where most people oongregate. We feel sure we can demonstrate that the scheme will be a success from a business stand point. Wo shall be much disappointed if they do not pay net profit of 10 per cent If we demonstrate that, the Peo- plo's institute will be relieved from a further prosecution of tha scheme. Pri- yate enterprise and capital will then step in and push the good work Where tho 5 cent drinks are sold there will be reading rooms, plenty of light and heat, toilet rooms, absolute cleanliness and good susbtantial free lunch on tho side. Where the 10 cent drinks are sold, the accommodations will be the same, but there will bo more mahogany and plate glass about the bar, and tho free lunch will be so elaborate that it will serve for good substantial meal.

 The street commissioner has no power, save with the consent of the people, whose property he grades up or down. He is a sort of advisory board. The city clerk issues licenses to show which are clearly fiat, and his records of the pro- oeedings of the council would have no weight in any court. None of these ap- pointive officers qualities. The whole machinery of administration ill the little town Is carried on by common consent
 The present mayor-the man who was elected, but who has not qualified and will not-is ". T. McElroy, editor of the Humboldt Union. MT. MeElroy has been in tho little town for 30 years, and his paper is 29 years old. He thinks when the citizens get out of this hole the man who offers to vote bond on the town site will be hanged.
 He says that the city stands ready to compromise with the '.innocent pur- ohasers" of the bonds for exactly what the purchasers are alleged to have paid 25 cents on the dollar This proposition he declares, has been made and rejected several times. Every few months an of ticor from some court tries to find funds of the extinct corporation i'll some bank in tho country. Not long ago the officer tried lola. But so far the courts have been unable to get tho funds. Tho little town seems to have the best of the.oon- test, and only time will release it from the trouble. Memphis Commerclal-Ap- uaaI

RedhOt Elections Every Year, but the
 Elected Never Qualify.
 The town of Humboldt, Kan, is an organized city of the third class, with 1,500 people, and for IS years there has not been municipal officer in the town, although the city election has been held every year. Thereby hangs tale, and as it contains warning against the yot- ing of bonds and going into debt it should Do told.
 In the spring of 1870 there was pro- jeoted south from Junction City to Par sons railroad called the southern branch of the Union Pacific. Humboldt was not young town then, but bond voting was the fashion, and Humboldt, which was old enough to know better, voted bonds to the extent of $175. 900 for the road. Not satisfied with this debt, i'll 1876 the town voted $25, 900 to the Fort Scott, Humboldt and Western, 8 road known in the west as the "Old Fifth Parallel This road was graded from Fort Scott to Humboldt, but it was never equipped Tho grade may be seen today by passengers riding along the Missouri Pacific But the grade did not bring tho flood of trade that was ex- peoted, and the bonds being sold to the usual "innoeent purchaser the town began to skirmish around the courts to keep from paying an unjust debt. The inevitable came, and i'll 1876 the town, as a legal corporation, dissolved into thin air.
 Then when the officer of the court came to Humboldt i'll 1876 to compel the mayor to turn over tho interest due OH the bonds he found that, although there had been redhot election the spring before and although there was man there called mayor there was ill deed and ill legal truth no mayor at all
 The situation has remained the same for IS years. In two years more the debt will be outlawed. Then Humboldt is coming up to breathe tho free air once moro as municipal corporation. At present tho programme is written upon a tangled web. 1" Every year the mayor and city council are elected. The old ad- ministration retires and the new admin istration comes in--only 1t doesn' t. It comes 10 the threshold, but it doesn't t enter. 1t does not qualify. /"
 The council meets without the oath of office. The mayor is merely chairman of committee of citizens-the council and the meetings of tho committee are held regularly. Ordinances are passed giving the city marshal and the street commissioner power to keep the town orderly and clean. The council cannot handle any public money. Tho little money used by the council is raised Dy private subscription among the residents of the town, and as it doesn go through any red tape machine and as every one who pays these volunteer taxes knows just how much he pays for everything the money is not squandered. lt IS, III fact, a business administration. The city marshal is only fiat funotlonary, As city marshal he has power to do nothing except scare small boys who throw melon rinds ill tho alleys and to notify owners of pigpens to clean up, but as constable of Humboldt township he can arrest men and enforce the laws As we'll as the best policeman in the Z

Cent Pieces In the South.

A year or so ago, when the average Savannahian found himself in possession of q copper cent, he felt tempted to flip the little coin into the gutter as a nuis- ance. Cents were unpopular Nobody wanted them. Even the newsboys and the bootblacks disdained to waste time in waiting for cent in change. But things are different now. The little cop per coin cuts quite figure in the oity's circulation, and it is as much respected as the more pretentious nickel. Hardly a person fishes up handful of change i'll which there is not plentiful sprin- king of bronze color The reduced street car fares and the odd cent prices in some of the leading stores have brought about the change, and it is probably good thing. People have come to understand the value of cent better than they ever did before. Savannah News.

mas created q small s1zed sensation in Texas and Mexico by announcing that he would export 100, 000 negroes from tho southern states to Mexico during this winter The above information was conveyed to Atlanta last night in press dispatch, dated at San Antonio, Tex, which also stated that "Peg' had signed a contract on Saturday to furnish a wealthy planting company in Mapiamia, Mexico, 300 laborers, to be obtained from Georgia.
 Peg Williams is one of the best known railroad men ill Georgia, and he has been instrumental in the exportation of moro worthy and worthless negroes from this state than any other half dozen men ill it. He is known. and intimate ly, by every prospective darky exoduster in tho borders of the state, from the Blue Ridge to Liberty, and to say aught against Peg" ill the hearing of anr ono of them is to lay yourself liable to trouble.
 Did Peg" mean what he has been telling the people out ill Texas? Will he really relieve tho south of 100, GOO mem- bers of it's population within few months, and, if so, how will he do it? Will he ooloniZe and march them to the land of the greaser, or will he send them ill specials prepaid all the way through?
 Peg Williams is known as hustler, and when he undertakes to do a thing he generally succeeds. If there are 100, GOO negroes in tho south who want to go to Mexico that have the necessary cash, Peg" Williams is the man who can carry them. He is resourceful, and if they have the money he can provide transportation for that number and many more. Atlanta Constitution.
