Washington, Ga, Feb. 9G.-J. G.
Mattox, Of Charleston, Tenn, arrived
here on February 30, introduced him
self to several citizens as the accepted
suitor Of Miss Mamie J. Smith, an ac-
complished young lady living four
miles from Washington.
He stated that they had never seen
each other, but had become engaged
trough exchange of photographs and q
correspondence of three months dura-
tiOn.
He secured q team and drove out to
see his fiancee for the first time. She
was expecting him and had everything
in readiness. The wedding cakes were
all baked, the trousseau made and the
guests invited to the marriage that was
to have taken place Sunday, Feb. 81.
She told him that she could not mar
ry him because he looked too old and
was not like his photo, He remained
several days pleading in vain.
He told her that he had money and
lands he wonld lay at her feet; and
showed certificate from his banker as
to his wealth, but nothing could move
her, and he returned as he came, bit
terly upbraiding the fckleness of Geor-
gia girls,

CALLERS AND OFfICE-SEEKERS.


General Harrison Suggests Plan for the Re-
liet Of the President
Ex-P President Harrison gives a most
interesting pen picture of GA Day
with the President at his Desk, " in the
March Ladies' Home journal The ar
ticle is unique, as being the first writ
ten by President of life in tho White
House, and in describing the routine OF
a Chief Executive. A feature that he
treats with directness relates to the
Presidents Interruptions from callers
and Office seekers. cit is q rare good
fortune" he writes, during the early
months of an administration if the
President gets one wholly uninterrupt-
ed hour at his desk each day. The
PRESIDENTS time is so broken into bits
that he is often driven to late night
work, or to setup Il desk in his bedroom
when preparing message or other pa
pers requiring unbroken attention.
Thoughtlessness is the root ofall this
4 only want five minutes; and if he
were the only one it could be spared;
but this double is at his heels, and the
urgent public business is postponed
or done at night with a jaded mind. 1t
may be said that untimely visitors
should be excluded, and so they should;
but thoughtfulness on their part would
be cure without smart. y Regarding
the Office seekers persistency in hay
ing personal interviews with the Presi-
dent, General Harrison asserts that
they advance their cause but little if at
all. But the feeling that something
is or may be gained by personal in
terview prevails, and for the first year
and half of an administration the
President spends from four to six
hours of each day talking about things
he will not have to actupon for months
while the things that ought to be done
presently are hurtfully postponed
eff the President could make up and
publish an appointment docket, and
notify all persons having anything to
say in particular case to draw near
on a fixed day, it wouldresultin a great
saving of time all around, and great
saving of money to the applicants, who
could remain at home until summoned
to appear. No papers shonld be re-
ceived after the submissi IN Of the case,
and motions for a rehearing and new
taiaI should be barred"

Alice Mitchell is wasting away in a
state asylum for the insane, u few miles
from the little town of Bolivian in West
Tennessee, writes correspondent in
the Sunday Republic. Five years have
elapsed since the unhappy evening In
January when, in fit of jealousy and
passion, she took the life of her friend
aad companion, Freda Ward.
From . strong, hsalthy young wo-
man she has dwindled into pale in
valid. The story of this unfortunate
young woman is fresh in the minds of
the people of this state 1t will be re-
membered that after the murder the
court pronounced Alice insane and she
was never held to account; but in an
asylum prison her young life is now
slowly apying the penalty.

Don'tS For Slender Women.

Don't wear black; black has ten
dency to make any one look slender,
Light clothes are the most becoming.
Don't have your lingerie too close
fitting, have your undershirts gather
ed Nrond the hips and a lull front in
your underwOist is good.
Dou't strive for long-waisted effects
or use pointed girdles; the longer you
make yourself look the thinner you
will appear.
Don't stay up late at night; get at
least nine hours good sleep. A woman
needs more sleep than a man, and moth
ing keeps her in good condition like
lots of sleep,
Don't wear stripes, checks. plaids and
and horizontal effects are better for
thin women. They should strive for
becoming, deceiving effects if they
study are in dressing at all.
Don't wear large, broad -brimmed
haiti looks out of proportion, especi-
ally as the face of a slender girl is usu-
ally small. A moderate sized or small
hat will be found much bette.

How to Grow Graceful.

The girl who desires to be graceful
must exercise. Just now, when she
cAn not row or wheel, and when skat-
ing comes but at intervals, it is pretty
good plan for her to take regular physi-
cal exercise a little each day. The
youngest looking, prettiest, brightest
and sweetest grandmother that [ ever
knew in my life tells me that she never
goes to her breakfast without half an
hours physical exercise. If you could
only see er-slender, bright-eyed,
with clear, unlined complexion and
abundant vitality in every movement l.
I 4hink you would feel like Immediately
going and doing likewise. Oh, yes,
there is lot of good in "house gym
nastics, " and here are few good, simple
exercises for the general development
of the limbs:
1. Describe a circular movement
with each arm 30 times in succession.
Extend the arms forward, outward and
upward 30 times in succession, taking
eight or ten deep inspirations between
each series.
2. Execute circuler movement from
the waist, swaying the upper part of
the body slowly round, the hands rest
ing on the hips, 30 times.
g. Extend the leg as nearly at right
angles with the body as possible 19
times each side, taking eight or ten
deep inspirations between each series.
f. Extend and bend the foot % times
each side; perform the gesture ofreaping
or saving 30 times; bend each knee
rapidly 80 times, take eight or ten deep
inspirations.
5. Raise the arm swiftly and rapidly
as in the action of throwing a lance, 10
times in succession; throw out both
arms simultaneously 20 times; take
eight or ten deep inspirations.
6. Trot on one spot, resting the
hands on the hips and lifting the feet
bsiskly 100 to 300 times. Take eight or
ten deep inspirations.
7, Jump with the hands on the hips
and the head and body erect, so to 100
times Take eight or ten deep inspira-
tions. If necessary brief rest should
be taken after each exercise.

How. William Means.

The time has come to tell some truths
about the connection of ex-Mayor
Means, an honored citizen of this coun-
ty, with the Metropolitan Bank of Gin
cinnati in 1888, He has quietly lived
all the years since, suffering prosecu-
tion and misrepresentation without a
murmr.
The Indebtedness of Wm. Means was
Sl25,0OO at the time the doors of the
Metropolitan Bank were closed, and
was occasioned almost entirely by pur-
chase Of the stock of the bank in con-
nection with other directors to keep it
off the market and preve 1T inil ry to the
concern. when Mr.. Means was elected
president, he soon discovered that the
bank had borrowed $4,000 in New
York reserve, and that a large amount
Of bad assets had been accumulated
under the previous management.
After worrying with this condition
for three years, the board of directors
decided to increase the capital stock
from $500,000, which it then was, to
81, 600, ,000, and dispose of thenew stock
at premium in order to obtain sur
plus and render the bank strong beyond
all contingencies. This was done, and
Il few of the members of the board, in
cluding the president, formed syndi-
cate to take such of the new stock as
might not be sold otherwise all of
which, with what was purchased out
side, was sold at n premium of 35 cents
on the dollar and the concern pros
pered until the crash of the Fidelity
Bank, through Harper's wheat deal in
Chicago, occa5ioned uneasiness on the
street and holders of the new Metro
politan bank stock, who had bought on
speculation, dumped it on the market.
The syndicate, fearing injury to the
bank in case this stock should not be
maintained at good rates, borrowed
from the bank, giving their own uotes
to protect it, thus loading themselves
with obligations to obtain stock they
did not want, with the sole purpose OF
securing the safety of their institution
These notes attracted the attention
of the bank examiner, who looked on
them with suspicion, and notwithstand
ing they were among the best assets oi
the bank, the transaction was irregular,
and becoming noised about the streets
brought on a run that occasioned the
closing of the doors but the depositorl
were soon paid with interest and the
stockholders have been largely REIN
bursed, the principle losers being the
members Of the syndicate, who stepped
into the breach and sacrificed Themselves
to save the bank.
Mr.. Means Indebtedness of $125, 00C
was paid in less than ten days from
the closing of the bank. There really
was no sufficient reason, looking at thu
condition when he took hold and there
suits, for the banks closing at all. Blu
it is all over now, and Mr.. Means
family is assured competency by th'
recent unanimous decision of the Uui
ted States circuit court Of appeals, de
creeing to the family his interest Zone
fifth in the large estate Of his father il
accordance with the provision which h,
had made for them. The attorneys fo
the Means interests in that case cal
tell how valuable his services were tt
his father in protecting and preserving
that great estate. -Xenia (O.) Gazette

The First NC" in the White House.

McNNley will be the first president
to have enc" to his name. 1t is a
singular fact, considering the promi-
nence of the Scotch and Irish blood
among the American people, that not a
single "Mc" has served as president
vice president or speaker. Several
"Macs, however, have served in the
cabinet. Washington had James Nc
Henry for secretary of war. Monroe
had John Mclean for postmaster gen
eral. Jackson had Louis Mclean for
secretary of state and also Of the treas
ury. Tyler had John Mclean for sec
retary of war. Pierce had Robert Nc
Clelland for secretary of the interior,
Lincoln and Arthur had Hugh McOul-
Tough for secretary of the treasury.
Hayes had George W. McCI .ry for
secretary of war, and Garfield had
Wayne Vesgh for attorney general.
President Mckinley, it is expected, will
have two Macs in his cabinet, Mchenna
and McCook. In this connection It is
of interest to note that of all the origi-
nal fighting MeCooks who took part in
the civil war only four are now living.
John J. McCook, the new attorney
general, was the youngest of the tribe
of Dan, " the name given to the sons of
Daniel McCook. His brother, Gen.
McCook, of Che regular army, and his
cousins, City Chamberlain Arson G.
McCook and Rev. J. J. McCook, Of
Trinity College, Hartford, are the other
survivors of the two branches of this
famous family that gave its full male
strength to the defense of the Union. -
