..BUTTER..

AS much as to anything else we have
in the store.
It's a mid, sweet butter, and is uni
formly good. 1 couldn't buy better
butter, no matter what price paid for
it. If could 1 would, for nothing but
the best is good enough for my patrons.
After you're tired of experimenting with

The recent landslip at Cromer is on.
ly the last Of long series of catastro.
Plies which during the past 1000 years
have buried more than q mile of land
i'll the sea. One looks in vain for any
mention Of Cromer in Domesday book.
1t was then but hamlet of the town
Of Shipden. But Shipden has lain now
for many years at the bottom Of the
sea. At the beginning Of this century
It was still possible to discern the ma
sorry of its church at low water. In
those days Cromer was an inland town.
But In 1887 an extraordinary gale drove
the sea to such height that the very
existence Of the town was in peril for
many hours. Since then q breakwater
has been constructed to protect the
town.
The neighborhood, however, is grad
ually disappearing. At Sheringham a
frigate drawing 20 feet Of water can
now ride at anchor where 40 years ago
there was a cliff 80 feet high. 1t has
been found necessary to move various
buildings inland. A lighthouse was
built in l719 several hundred yards in
land, but In little more than century
this lighthouse had to be abandoned
owing to encroachment and new one
built still farther away. The Crome1
cliffs are very sandy and are especially
exposed to the action Of the sea, as they
encounter the full force Of the drift
from the northeast. w Westminster Ga.

Tho Kongo Railway.

The completion Of the Kongo railway,
which has taken ten years to accom-
plish, is an event which is worthy Of
record, for this Is not only a railway,
but way to the civilization Of some
5000, 900 human beings. The enter
prise is due to the Belgians, and, though
the success of the Kongo Free State has
been far from being triumphant it is
remarkable as the first and only attempt
at colonization ever undertaken by that
people. The railway is great achieve
ment, for the natural obstacles were
many in number, the climate at many
parts of the route so deadly that the
workmen persisted by the hundred, and
the scarcity Of water and food supplies
led to much suffering.
The line is single, and is $50 miles
in length; in its course it offers exam
pies ofall kinds Of engineering Difficult
ties in the way of tunnels, bridges and
deep cuttings through hard rock. This
railway brings the Atlantic ocean and
the lower Kongo within reach Of 1000
miles of navigable waterways, and thus
opens up to European commerce 200,
900 square miles Of country which be-
fore was quite shut out from communi-
cation. The foresight and enterprise
which conceived and carried out the
idea of this African railway are not
likely to go unrewarded. -Chambers'

Change Iu German Sentiment.

London, Aug. 15.-The Berlin CORE
spondent of The Observer says: THE
nature of the German comment on
America for the past four months is
completely changed. The mockery OF
the military institutions Of the republic
has ceased and sneers at the political
ideals Of its people are no longer heard.
America has surprised and impressed
Germany by her military and naval
power. To that, added to material con-
siderations which render her friendship
desirable. may be attributed the tone OF
respect and even amiability in which
the peace negotiations are discussed
The Cologne Gazette even encourages
by implication the acquisition of large
portion of the Philippines and says thai
Germany would not interfere with such
an arrangement. France, the most in.
terested power, would not move finger
TO prevent it,"

Thought the Conductor Shot an Angel.
An engineer running over the Pan
handle branch of the Santa Fe is some
what superstitious and believes in
warnings.
One night he was rolling along at
good rate of speed, when he saw clear,
white light, like will-o'-the-wlsp,
dancing around just over the track few
hundred feet in front of him. He shut
off steam and came to a stop as quickly
as he could. The conductor and train
crew came running up to the engine tt
see what was the matter.
"There is some one swinging a Ian
tern across the track, " said the en-
gineer, and the crew went ahead to in
vestigate.
1--WE can't find any one, reported
the rear brakeman, and the engineer
pulled out again, but he went slowly
and in a few minutes he stopped again
The crew went ahead once more to SCI
what was the cause Of the light. TIT
conductor, who was good shot, drew nj
revolver and at the second shot he made
at the mysterious light there was crash
a scream and tho light went out ant
something white came fluttering dow
from the clouds.
The superstitious engineer was scared
"You'ye shot an angel, sure, he salt
to the conductor, with his face pale o
death.
Investigation brought out the fac
that a small boy with lantern tied t
the tail of his kite was the cause OF j
all. but it leases the engineer to say any
thing about shooting angels. ITO

A Fake" Hobson.

week" said New Orleans drummer
who came in yesterday from a trip.
and the hotel proprietor is wild over
the sell. The Lieutenants double was
Arthur Eaton of Cincinnati, who is we'll
known here. He looks something like
Hobson's picture, and a friend register
ed him as the hero just for a joke.
Well, you should have seen the excite
ment! The whole DISTRICT hocked TO
the hotel, all the pretty girls turned out
and the landlord nearly burst blood
vessel getting up a swell dinner. In a
little while the thing had gone so far
that Eaton was afraid to own up, and
he sneaked off on the first train.
Before he got away the girls cut al
the buttons off his clothes as souvenirs
and he got to Jacksonville hanging to-
gether by safety pins. At the depot
some cheerful idiot asked the fake
Hobson to kiss his best girl, and sew
eral other idiots followed suit. Now
