Death of Ex-speaI.cr Crisp.

The announcement yesterday of the
death of ex-Speaker Charles +. Crisp pro-
duced a profound sensation. His death
was wholly unexpected. except. perhaps,
| by the few who were aware Of his real
physical condition. The last statement
! relative to his health that appeared in tho
public prints created the impression that
he was so far improved that he would
leave the sanitarium within a very few
days. 1t was given out that he had been
suffering from an attack of malarfal fever.
Nothing was said about his heart trouble.
and there was no doubt in the public mind
that he would soon be in good health
again. His heart trouble, however, Of
which he complained soon after he at
tempted to make canvass of the state
for United States senator, in the early
part of the summer. was far more serious
than either he or his friends suspected.
So little was understood of his actual con-
dition then that there was a
disposition to make light Of
his reported illness, and to regard
1t as an excuse for avoiding campaign
NOihs w nat Wdo Cdil thNlA ina
seemed TO question his sincerity is no
doubt deeply regretted now.
Mr. Crisp was a very sincere man, and
dealt with those with whom he came in
contact with entire frankness. He could
not have made so many warm friends and
held their friendship so firmly and con-
tinuously if he had been otherwise. He
was a politician and a very successful
one. but politics did not make him a hard
and selfish man. He won his way to
success and prominence as much by his
kindly nature and courteous manners as
by his ability.
OF his intellectual ability there was
never any question. 1t requires a man of
exceptional ability to be a successful
speaker of the House of Representatives.
Mr. Crisp was speaker for two terms and
he won praise from his political opponents
as we'll as from his political friends He
was big enough to be impartial in the ex-
ercise of power. and that is saying much,
because in the speakers chair the temp
tation to favor ones own party for political
reasons is very great.
AS the leader of his party on the floor
of the House, Mr.. Crisp was all that could
be desired. He was a ready debater and
well equipped for his work. In contests
with the opposition leaders his party never
felt any apprehension as to the result
In the death of Mr.. Crisp Georgia has
lost one of her great men. AS a soldier
of the confederacy, as a public prosecu-
tor, as Judge as a representative in con-
gress and as speaker he did his duty well
and faithfully. His fellow citizens re-
spected him, loved him and honored him.
Had he lived they would have elected him
United States senator. He rose from the
ranks and always remembered that he
was one of the people. He trusted the
people and they trusted him. His death
win cause deep sorrow throughout the
state, and beyond the state. A good man
has gone to his final rest. 80

A Lille Romance.

There was, before the war, a pretty lit
tie romance in Richmond, Va. Shake
speare Caldwell, whose daughter, Mary
Gwendolin Caldwell, became the wife of a
French marquis a day or two ago, was the
son of an actor popular in the south, says
the New York Press. He fell desperately
in love with Anne Carmichael, whose fam
lily was of the F. F. VS., but because of
his impecuniosity her father would not as
sent to the marriage. Caldwell, in de-
spair, went to New Orleans to make a for
tune. While there he saw a notice of
Annes death in a Richmond paper. He
was standing in front of the desk of the
st. Charles hotel at the time, and was so
shocked by the news that he dropped to
the floor unconscious. l do not remember
the name of the woman whom he subse-
quently married.
Anne Carmichael was the acknowledged
belle of Richmond, at that time as now,
noted for its beautiful women. She was a
petite demi-brune, whose face and figure
were of extraordinary beauty Her feet
were smaller and better shaped than those
of any other woman of her day. Although
inclined to be what in those days was
commonly called fast she was as pop
ular with women as with men. No one
ever heard her speak an ungenerous word
of her own sex. One day, in midsummer
while her fathers family were living at
the fashionable hotel in Richmond one of
the beaux of the season walked past and
looked up at Anne's window. Seeing two
tiny bare feet projecting between the lace
curtains and resting upon the window sill
he, knowing that they were Anne's called
out, Good afternoon, Miss Anne" In
stantly the little feet disappeared, and
their owners roguish face peeped out
'Oh, how do you dor she called back
cheerily; Il was just trying to get cool
Isn't it disgustingly hot?" Franks of that
kind she carried out with such naivete
that the men adored her, and the women
found in them nothing for reproach.

Not Hay Fever.

She laced her white fingers across his
eyes, says the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
Guess who it is" she coyly murmured.
He only sneezed.
Then he sneezed again, and again, and
again.
She drew away her fingers and looked
in terror at his twitching nose, his suf-
fused face. his streaming eyes.
What Is it. my darling?' she gasped.
Mus tch-hay-atch-feve
choov he answered.
Then a swift idea struck her. She look
ed at her dimpled fingers. She even smiled.
at isn't hay fever. my love-" she said.
ITS something very different. You see,
all the morning I've been putting up
pickles and handling red peppers?"
Then he took one Of her little hands,
and, after cautiously shifting at it, sneezed
nineteen times in four seconds.

A New View of TiIIman.
From the Portland oregonian (Rep).

Mr.. Tillman. now stumping Oregon for
Bryan, Is man Of peculiar presence. In
his gestures, while speaking, and in the
sneer that plays upon his face as he
pauses for effect. he Is wonderful coun-
terpart OF the late Brigham Young, leader
of the Mormon church. This resemblance
is most marked. and those who had listen
ed to the great apostle Of Mormonism were
quick to recognize the cold. sneering man
nerisms so prominently reproduced by his
latter-daY prototype.

SEQ the whole Hog"
From the New orleans states tDem.

The election Of Bryan to the Presidency,
while 1t will tend largely TO check further
INSCRIPTIONS legislation in favor Of the
combines and trusts. will be of little avail
otherwise unless a congress In line with
his policy is also elected. Hence the man
who endorses the Chicago platform and
ticket, and yet. for some petty personal
consideration. refuses to support demo-
cratic candidate for congress might as well
certainly in this state which is certain
to cast its vote for Bryan-literally 'go the
whole hog and support the republican ma
tional ticket.

Hung Upon an "If."
From the Cincinnati Enquirer Den

If the election is to be close, Illinois will
probably have the pivotal honor. These
calculations have been on a close election;
but If Illinois goes democratic it is likely
that it will sweep two or three other mid
die western states with it. And that sort
of a result would remove any doubt about
any state in the south or west of the Mis-
souri,.

From the Baltimore Herald Dem.).

According to the New York Journal, the
farmers of Minnesota look upon the rise
in wheat as an attempt on the part of the
money power to intimdate them But
judging from the volume of Minnesota
wheat rushing to market. they are per-
fectly willing to be intimidated.

From the Houston Post Dem.).

The report that the government at

war is ended before the expiration of that
time. is probably Incorrect, but II is a safe
prediction that such action will be taken
by the United States within less than three
months after the inaugural of Bryan.

they saw Mr.. Bryan on the stage. or else
are offering him the position of advertis-

to have themselves noticed. at the expense

Happy Chicago.

Chicago is happy. hilariously so, over
the fact that she has registered many
more voters this year than New YORK.
lChicago's registration is Ss1, 5of while that
of New York is only S30,976 Chicago.
therefore, leads New York more than Co.,
900. That is an immense lead. 1T is not
surprising that Chicago rejoices. The
basis upon which she rests her claim that
she is the leading city of the country so
far as population is concerned is a very
solid one
For several years Chicago has been
claiming that her population is greater
than that of New York. This claim, how
ever New York has refused to admit AT
the same time. she has been making ex-
traordinary efforts in behalf of Greater
New York. so as to be ready for the CEN
sus of 1900.
OF course with Brooklyn added and the
other towns that are included in the an
nexed territory, she will have more pep
pie within her limits at the next census
than Chicago unless the latter city grows
with even greater rapidity than she has
done yet, or extends her limits so as to in-
Guide the greater part of the state Of
Illinois.
Some of the New York papers are ex-
planning why it is that New York's regis
tration is not larger. 1t is only about 20
600 greater than it was in 1892. According
to the normal increase 1t ought to be
about 10000 greater. A registration Of $780,
900 was expected.
The main reason why the registration
does not meet expectations is said to be
the fact that no special effort was made
TO get voters to register, as was the case
in former years. Before this year the
Tammany leaders made it point to see
that all the democrats in each ward were
registered This year, owing TO the disor-
ganized condition of Tammany, nothing
Of the kind was attempted And the re.
publicans made no special effort to get
their voters to register. They depended
wholly on the sentiment in favor of the
gold standard to influence the voters.
Other causes are assigned for the light
registration but the foregoing is the CHER
one. The Dragging Chicago will do until
the Greater New York" scheme is ac-
complished will make New York feel that
life IS a burden.
Clarke county is earning good reputa-
ton and setting an example for her sis
ters in the building of school houses and
! good roads 1t is the policy of the county
to spend $3.50 every six months
on new school buildings, requir-
ing the communities in which
the buildings are erected TO expend
an equal amount. BY this means a num-
Der Of new and modern school buildings
are being secured. The county has also
had seventy miles of roads surveyed. and
will as soon as practicable begin the
building Of improved and permanent
roads. The county that goes in for good
schools and good roads Is on the highway
to prosperity. and will attract the most
desirable immigration.
