TERRIBLE EXAMPLES.

Opposition to Phil Cook.

They Were the Means at breaking Up
Opposition to Phil Cook.
Phil Cook was one Of the old school
politicians very much on tho Dayy Crock
EFT and Abraham Lincoln order He knew
how to appeal To tho populace with good
story or an apt application, and his roper
tory OF anecdotes was rcpleDished from
time To time so that ho had always some
thing wise or witty TO give 70 the wool hat
brigade when occasion demanded
On one occasion he was running for con-
gress for the second torn in succession and
In stumpiDg his district no struck Coffee
county. He had got his bearings In ad-
vance and was loaded for bear as well as
for recreant suffrage singers
When he mounted tho rostrum, he cast
his oalle eye over the assemblagc and dis
covered that there were u number OF color
ed mon present. He began his speech In
his usual onhand style and directed many
pertinent appeals to the negroes. He had
been Informed OF the fact In advance that
two Of them who had voted against him
In the previous race had either met with q
violent death or got into trouble.
II have learned" said he "that there
wero two colored men who voted against
me In the last election--Jim Jones and
Bob Thompson. Now, had never done
anything to either of these men TO cause
them to 60 back on me that way. Docs any
one present know anything Of tho where
abouts Of Jim Jones, who voted against
me on that occasion? Speak out, II there
IL any one who knows"
"Yassir," replied an old negro in the
crowd, II know, gineral. He's dead"
"Do you know what killed hinl"
"Lightnin struck 'iu and kilt i'm
dead" replied the old darky.
"Well, that looks bad. Now, does any
body know what became OF Bob Thomp-
son, who voted against meP There were
only two men In Coffee county, mind you,
who had the bad grace to oppose me in
that race Jim Jones is dead-now, what
about Thompson"
"Why, Rineral, spoke up another darky,
"he's In the chain gang. Dey sont i'm dar
To- stealth er hawg"
"Ah, ah! So one Of my opponents Is
dead and the other Is in the chain gang.
That Is a mighty bad showing, boys, and
don't you SEQ how dangerous it is to vote
against mes"
Tip Harrison Is the authority for the
statement that Coffee county went solid fol
Phil Cook after that every time he offered,
and all creation couldn't have turned those
negroes after his foroible illustration of this
danger attendant upon disloyalty to him

Tho production Of this book may be de-
scribed as joint affair, for though the
lions share of the work Of translating
writing and correcting proofs devolvcd
upon Burton alone, the financial part Of
the work fell upon his wife, and that 1t
was big thing no one who has had any
experience Of writing or publishing would
deny. There were several editions In the
field, but they were all abridged or Bow
dlerized" ones, adapted more or less for
"family and domestic reading" Burton's
object In bringing out this great work was
not only to produce literal translation,
but to reproduce IL faithfully In the Ara.
bian manner. He preserved throughout
the orientation of the verse; and figures OF
speech instead of Anglicizing them. 1t is
this, combined with his profound oriental
scholarship, his fine old world style and
the richness, variety and quaintnoss Of his
vocabulary, which has given to his original
edition It's unique value.
At the beginning publisher had offer
ed Burton G500 for tho book but Isabel
said, "No; let me do It," 1t was II months
hard work, and during that time thoy had
to find tho means for printing and binding
and circulating the volumes as they came
out. The Burtons were their own printers
and their own publishers, and they made,
between September, 1885, and November,
1883, 10000 guineas. 5000 Of which went
toward the expenses Of publishing, and
10000 guincas into their own pockets.
Isabel writes: "It came just In time to give
my husband the comforts and luxuries and
freedom which gilded the last five years OF
his life When no died. there were florins
left, which l put into the poorbox. -

Break at DeArmitt's Ofne.

Pittsburg, July 30.-William Warner
secretary of the Miners union, tele.
phoned that break In De Armitt's mine
has taken place. He says that after
yesterdays meeting another meeting
was arranged for last night, and il was
attended by many OF the men who. have
been at work. Several local speakers, he
said, placed the matter before them In
suoh . convincing way that the men
from De Armitt's Turtle Greek mine re.
solved not to return to work this morn.
ing. Secretary Warner says this is the
most important result OF the big meeAing
and It will be taken advantage OF at once
to influence the men at the other two
mines To come out. The miners off,
Gals are jubifent over this victory.

When In Love.

People In love, says lady, arc always
moro bad tempered than others. This
particularly applies to engaged couples.
1t seems that the extraordinary sweet
ness they expend on each other must In
some way be oountsrbalanoed, and for this
reason they ase much moro peevish and
bad tempered toward their friends than
they wcro before they fell In love.
Another reason for the exhibition OF
bad temper lies In the fact that people
who are In love feel an intenso-almost
Irresistible - dosire to proclaim the
charms Of the beloved ono to their friends.
And tho friends, not being extraordinarily
interested In tho subject, arc apt to bo
little resentful Of long drawn out eulogics
Of persons they hardly know or perhaps
have never seen. The natural result of
this Is recrimination and continued bick-
ering.
Then, again, those In love havo habit
OF comparing othor people with tho object
of thoir affections tn the decided disad-
vantage Of tho "othor people" AS these
comparisons nro often resented or pooh
poohcd, an exhibition of temper Is again
the result.
Now, II people who arc I'm love would
only think for n moment they would un.
derstand that their friends nro quito In.
different Co the charms of "tho dearest
girl In the world" and that her Htailcd
sayings arc as unlnterosting Co them ns an
essay on prehistoric fashions. London

Armor CompanIes, Offer Rejected.

Washington. July 30.-Secretary Long
has rejected the offer OF the armor COM
panies to supply the diagonal armor for
the three neutrality-suspicious., Wis.
consin and Illinois-now building at a
price to be fixed hereafter by the navy
department itself. The companies made
this offer under the impression that as
the armor Of this kind is entirely within
the hull and superstructure Of the ships
the failure Of the government to procure
II would stop the work Of the shjpbuild-
ers entirely. Therefore. while they re-
fused to furnish all OF the armor needed
at the price fixed by congress, they un-
dertook to supply the diagonal armor.
leaving the price afterward to be ad-
justed. Secretary Long. however, has
found that it will be possible to go on
with the work OF building the ships and
allow the armor to be placed later on.
