If Gov. Griggs'notion about appointing
a member of the Legislature to an Office
during his term Of service does not pre-
vent. we should be glad to see Senator
Ward, of this county, made a factory
inspector. Senator Ward has represented
Salem county we'll at Trenton, and has
twice been the standard-bearer Of bis
party in this county, and this recognition
of his faithful service would be a we'll
deserved compliment.
The announcement is made that
Thomas @. Platt, the New York political
boss, is for Senator Quay for President
as 1901 as the Morton boom has collap-
sed. This is another straw that points in
direction of these two men pooling their
issues at st. Louis with a view to con-
trolling the situation. In all probability
they would rather be the power behind
the throne, than to be on the throne.
However, they are not the kind of men
the people care to trust with unlimited

DEAR UNION SIGNAL AND THE Tenn
PERANcE SISTERS: It is in my heart to
sincerely thank you for opening Willard
Hall for a series of gospel temperance
meetings for the salvation of men from
the drink habit. For this kindness to me
and the cause 1 plead, you have been
criticised because | have been accused of
advocating license as the remedy for
~intemperance, which | most emphatically
deny. l do not believe that the good
common sense of the American people
would license one saloon on this conti-
nent were it not for the money they get
out of it.
Whatever l have been in the past 1 am
now with the Prohibition party. l hope
and pray that its influence may continue
to grow until a majority of the people OF
this-God's country-shall do as much
by their votes to destroy this big, selfish,
lawless ''crime OF Grimes" as they have
done to protect it. l am with you heart
and hand, with malice toward none
with charity for all, with irmness in the
right as God shall give us to see the
right" until the last saloon is closed and
the last fire in the last distillery is put
out never to be lighted again.
Yours in heart,
FRANCIS MURPHY.
P. SIN the words of the immortal
Lincoln: eve are not eneulies but
friends. We must not be enemies.
Though passion may have strained, it
must not break our bonds of affection.
The mystic cord of memory stretching
from every battle field and patriot grave
to every loving heart and h~esrthstone all
over this broad land will yet swell the
chorus Of the Union, when again touched,
as surely they will be, by the better
angels of our nature" f, M.

The blacks crowded around tho canoe,
and while feeling its firm texture express

"tonguy Niger" volunteered to explain
tho wonder.
To the question from one negro 'How

time he led two leagues in batting-yiz.
tho Southern in 1898 and tho Western in
1890. He is Only 90 years old, and his sue
cess on the balliiold is living proof of
what good habits and careful training will
do for II baseball player.
Another proof that good habits among
professionals of the diamond pay is foupd
in the triumph of Cy Young of the Clcyo
land club, who, according to tho official
pitching averages, just made public by
Secretary Young, easily leads all the
pitchers in that limo of work. His nearest
competitor Is Hotter of the Baltimores,
who, like Young, let's liquu, alone and
looks well to himself during the playing
season. There arc pitchers in tho National
league who have boon blessed with talents
much rarcr than Young's, but while they
waste their abilities in convivial methods

Ths practice campaign of the northern

been success this year. Eleven of tho l2
clubs are south of Mason and Dixon's line,
and every ono has complaints to make of
cold, rainy weather interfering with tho
work. Tho late spring has been n sore
disappointment oil around. 1t probably
cost the II clubs $500 day to get tho
rather unsatisfactory benefit of this south
ern practice. Meanwhile correspondents
arc sending north great stories of the won
derful work done by some of tho wonder

momber instances Of other years, and as
they watch the recruits "knock the cover

Is fond OF tho convcnicnccs OF n barber

and stretches himself out on chair Then
the barber fathers his face and strops the
razor and just rs he is about to shave Mr..
Robson sits up in the chair, takes the razor
from him and, without word, calmly
shavcs himself. AS "a rule tho barber
pours out torrent of protcstntions, but
the comedian goes calmly on with his
work. After he has finished he sinks back
into the chair again and the barber, with
moro or less rebcllious expression wash
Us Robson's face with bay rum. Then Rob

case. When asked recently why it was
that he had made no effort to secure the

should have been his, Mr.. Starley smiled
and replied: We'll, 1t was simply because
there were patents in existence of the diff

Military System of the Beers.

Tho military system adopted by the
Bocrs is simple and yet perfect in its way
Each district is commanded by field cor
net, whose duty it is in case of alarm to is
sue notices to all In tho district. An alarm
is generally brought In by some herdsman
or native hunter, who has accidentally run
upon the enemy, or upon some rumor of
his approach. Mounted men at top speed
are instantly dispatched to all quarters of
the district and in short time every fam
lily, with household gear and herds, arc
trckking rs quickly as possible to the dis
trict town in which is situated tho laager.
1t takes but comparatively short time
Tor every white man, woman, and child to
be safely ensconced. The defense attended
to, riders are dispatched to meet the foe
and to bring news OF his approach Mes
sengers are spurred to tho capital to alarm
the government and within few hours
thousands OF tho finest shots and best
equipped horsemen in the world have as.
sembled iii defense of their fatherland
The Beers seldom attack the foe; their
general plan is, as in tho late Jameson
raid, to hover around until convenient
piece of country is found when, trusting
to their prowess as shots and to the excel
lence Of their horses to keep out of harms
way, they pour u delugc of lead ON tho foe
