There is a movement in Horny county,
South Carolina, for the erection
of a monument to the confeder-
ate dead of the Tenth regi-
ment, S. c. V. This regiment had in it
one company that became somewhat IA
nous for its composition as well as its
fighting qualities. 1t was made up al
most entirely of men from a dozen or
SO families. and they were about all re-
lated to each other. There were some
ten Chesnuts, fourteen Johnsons, six or
seven Affords, and so on. The captain
of the company was the cousin of nearly
every man in the ranks who was not his
brother. 1t was his custom in drilling TO
address his men in the most kindly man
ner somewhat in this way: cousin

1t is to be hoped that the authorities of
Montgomery county will at once begin a
vigorous investigation into the Perdue
lynching, and that the persons engaged in
the despicable work will be brought to
speedy Justice Montgomery county can
not afford to let this defiance of the law
stand on the records against her. She
should turn it to her credit. by proving to
the world that legal authority cannot be
defied in her borders with impunity. The
good name of South Georgia as well as
that of Montgomery county is involved in
this matter If those who lynched Prof.
Perdue are not promptly arrested and
punished in accordance with law the i'm

A strong effort is being made to in
duce the legislature to pass an act re-
quiring railroads in the state to issue
mileage books Of LOCO miles at the rate
of cents a mile. The friends of the
scheme say the adoption of their plan
would do much towards reducing the
business of the scalper, and would be
a great benefit to the roads themselves.

states have laws of the kind that is de-
sired in Georgia, and in some of the
states the books are transferable, and
the coupons are good over more than
one system of roads.

The money kings of Paris and London
have apparently got under" the stock
market for the purpose of holding it up
and preventing serious disasters. Barnato
and the Rothschilds have more than once
lately gone to the assistance of the weak
side of the market and prevented a panic.
Nevertheless it would not BE surprising
to hear of some crashes of financial houses
in Paris and London taking place to-day.
The settlements on the exchanges begin
to-day, and some of the operators are
pretty sure to be caught and crushed.

that it will occur next week-Thursday
Nov. Is. 1t should be made one of the oc-
casions Of the great show The chances
are that the South Carolina constitutional
convention and state administration will
attend the exposition on that date. They
are not going for the express purpose Of
honoring Savannah day with their pres
ence. but their presence will add interest
to the occasion, nevertheless. Savannah
ians should see to it that their city is well
represented. They should do this for two
reasons; to show their appreciation Of
their city. and to take advantage of the
most remarkable educational institution
they will have an opportunity of attending
for al long time. The exposition is a great
affair, and is worth to every one who at
tends it many times the cost of seeing it,

time for school children TO see the fair

therefore-one day in going one in coming

is also Atlanta day, so that if the weather
is fine on that day there will undoubtedly
be large attendance at the fair. The
fair is a Georgia institution. practically,
though it is Interstate and international
in character, and Georgians ought to be
proud enough Of il TO patronize it.

Some Stories of Pat.

Pat is 4 delightful fellow when he is
natural. The curious things the Irish
men say, and which are called bulls,
have excited a great deal of merriment
in the world. The latest instance of
the bull that we have encountered is
the will of a deceased resident of Dub
lin, VIII III 'eads as follows: Il give
and bequeath to my beloved wife,
Bridget, the whole of my property
without reseryeaand to my eldest son
Patrick, one half of the remainder;
and to Dennis, my youngest son, the
rest. If anything is left it may go,
together with the old cart without
wheels to my sincere and affectionate
friend Terence Mccarthy, in sweet
Ireland"
Another amusing bull was that of a
certain Paddy Murphy. who, with a
number of others, was discussing what
they could do in case they were ship
wrecked far out at sea without even
a plank to get ashore on. After the
others had told what they would do,
Paddy's turn came.
You're a selfish lot" he said. "Ye'd
ali be afther savin' yourselves an not
savin' any of the others. Old do. it
different. Old shwam ashore an save
miself first, an thin old Shwim out
again and save the rest of yez. "-Har-

our corks. The fish We're biting slowly
and we had nothing to do but to talk
and watcn. There was Il noise be-
hind us from time to time, which fl
nally attracted the attention of both
of us. 1t was just slight rustling
among the leaves in the dense growth
of willows which lined the bank, and
we could not have heard it if every
thing had not been quiet about us.
The noise continued, and we both fl
nally decided to investigate, thinking
it was chipmunk at play. The noise
ceased as we drew near, but by look
ing closely we saw a big snake lying
very still among the leaves. The most
remarkable thing about the snake was
that a stick about eight inches long
was sticking out of its mouth, and
the reptile was trying to bite it in half.
We looked more closely, and what do
you think we saw? The stick was held
tightly in the mouth of good sized
frog. The snake had swallowed the
frog up to the stick, and, of course,
could get no farther. The farmer told
me that he supposed the frog had grab
bed the piece of wood in its mouth
Just as the snake seized it. He SAID
that he had never seen such case be-
fore. We killed the snake and the
frog jumped out of the reptiles mouth
and finally jumped away.

The Boy Professor.

A special to the Detroit News from
Albion says that Latin students were
placed in q very humiliating position
the other day. Prof. Evans fell and
broke a rib and was unable to attend
classes. The professor has a son of
Is summers who is taking work in the
preparatory school. When the Ovid
class met there was considerable curl
osity as to who would take charge of
it. Great was the surprise when, at
the stroke of the last bell, this rosy
checked lad, who is small for his age,
stepped upon the roStrum, took the
professors chair and proceeded to
call the roll, with the deliberate COM
posture of a veteran. When he had
finished he quietly remarked that his
father was unable to be present and
had requested him to take charge.
He asked full explanations of the
knotty constructions, which one or
two upper classmen were unable to
give, and much to their embarrass-
ment were set right by the 13-year-old
professor. 1t is said the son converses
freely in tie tongue Of the Caesars
with his father.

Brought Down Abra M m.

Dupin the elder, who presided over
the chamber of deputies up to the
coup d'etat, disliked prosy, long
winded speaker. One of his bugbears
was deputy of the center, with the
name of Abraham Dubois. One day,
Dubois had occupied the rostrum for
more than an hour, and his speech
was not half finished. Suddenly Du-
pin rang his bell and got up. "Abra-
ham, Abraham" he exclaimed in a
sepulchral tone-"Abraham, Abra-
ham, the hour for the sacrifice has
struck" The poor speaker did not
protest, but Immediately vacated the
rostrum.
