NEW WORDS NEEDED.

English Demand For Such Combinations
as 'tliilment" and "Lovist.'
There is one thing that has not yet
been treated" by the universal i'm
prover-that pest who tries to set every
thing right-and that is our English
language. None but foreigners have as
yet had cause to complain Of it, every
Rritishcr seems to be satisfied with it
except me.
Now, why aren't there more words?
We have something like $50, 600, but
that is not enough, and we often expe-
Iience difficulties CT this account.
For instance when Il bus topples
over III the street the newspapers boom
out with long winded headings about
'.the falling over CT a bus, y collapse
of bus, - or "the ovcrturning of a
bus, etc But these are more or less
clumsy. Clearly it's tic word Cover
turnsion" that is wanted. "Thc over
turnsion of bus" hits the situation
perfectly.
Then, again, if you want to say that

considerably shorten your sentence by
the concise expression, "Arab llillment

modified i'll similar way. The awk-
ward word photograph could be changed
to "fotofy," puncturo to punk, +" Gig
arctic to "cisette, - situation to "si-
ton or "sitment, and so ON.
In more sentimental matters new
words would be decided boon. A man
somehow can't help blushing when he
calls the woman OF his heart sweet

are ugly words. only girl, !" of course,
is low, and 'fiancce" is avoided because
it cannot be pronounced properly.
"Lovist, Z" "spilcer" or thatcher" are
infinitely moro tasteful and convey tho
proper meaning.-London Answers.

HE IS ONE IN 4 THOUSAND. Col. DeBoard's Touching Devo- ton to His Departed Wife. OVER HER GRAVE HE RESIDES In an Octagon Shaped Cottage-The Beautiful Mansion Was Forsaken-"0ne in Life
 and One in Death"
Special to The Age-Herald.

Elliiay, Ga, Feb n.-Col Elisha De- Board, one of the oldest and most promi- nent citizens of Gilmer county, has just erected a small but magnificent octagon- shaped residence on his beautiful noun tain plantation, and on the great iron door that leads to the single-roomed interior Is the unusual but significant inscription: 'One in life and one in death." This in- scription tells the story of the most unique innovation perhaps in history
 Col. DeBoard, who Is past four-score years, lost the partner of a half century five years ago. His wife was his comfort and his inspiration in life and now she is his solace in death. This beautiful new residence is built over the grave so sacred with memories, and beside the great white monument that marks the resting place stands the bed of the aged husband. There by the dead wife he is passing his last days on earth, and the companionship of the clay from which she came is his dying comfort.
 This residence of the living and the dead stands within the shadow of Col. De- Boards great white mansion near this city, and is a building that would attract the eyes of any pedestrian. The grave of the wife had weathered the storms for four years when Col. DeBoard conceived the idea. Alone in his mansion he would wander to the beautiful green spot where his affections were entombed. The mansion had lost it's charms. There were no at fractions left save the magnetic influences of the memories that clustered around the grave An architect was employed and the plan outlined. As a result the doors of the old family residence are now closed and the lonely old gentleman and his wife are companions once again. The building is of stone with a double slate roof. The windows are heavy plate glass and the door is huge iron gate that is as secure as the vault doors that protect vast sums of wealth. Around the win-' dows the rarest flowers have been plant ed, and the venerable patriarch spends the day in beautifying the surrounding yard. At night he finds repose and rest within touch of the grave he loves so well.

interest to continue to fight the farmers, continue to fight for the gold standard in the interest of nonresident bond holders and against the producing and laboring classes of the state that values and wages keep going down and down, then, the next legislature should reduce the rate of interest. If the railroads and tele- graph companies desire to continue to do the same thing, then, the next legislature should, as it has a right to do, put down railroad and telegraphic rates If water and gas companies are disposed to do like wise, then. let water and gas charges come down accordingly.
 MT. Tomlinson further explained, how ever, that while the silver forces should be aggressive in standing up for their cause. yet, there should be no abuse: there should be no needless opposition aroused, and he told a. story illustrating how men could be won over by the use of tact and good judgment. But, he said, there must be
 No Compromise of Party Principles
 There must be no compromise of the principles of the party; no smothering them even for the time being. That the majority of those who did not support the national ticket last fall are quietly coming back into the party without making demands, but that the few who are making demands are making them in vain That two years ago these very people advocated fighting for principle; this year, they are advocating just the opposite
 That for democracy to win, it must con- tinue to stand by its principle and be az gressive in obtaining substantial relief for the people; and in such manner as to convince the people that the party is in earnest; to do which the party must build not upon the shifting sands of uncertain expediency but upon the eternal rocks Of everlasting principles; and the flag which was so galantly run up at Chicago In 1896, must not be pulled down or lowered even for one brief moment.

Special to The Age-Herald.

Chattanooga, Tenn, Feb. n.-Rev. J. A. Phillips, minister from Bowling Green, Ky, ran away with the youngest daughter of James Huoell, a wealthy resident of Athens, Tenn., and came here on a bridal tour.

 He deserted his wife yesterday, took the horses and left town. Today he was caught at Rome, Ga., and will be brought back here tomorrow. The girls father came and took her back home. The citizens of Attn ems promise to handle Phillips roughly when taken back there.

strength of the other Vanderbilt stocks had a good effect on the market at large. Sharp advances in Northwestern and Omaha were also made on the reports that the com- panies would be consolidated.

 To admit that the building and loan busi- ness Is not a good business Is to admit that the members have not enough intelligence to make rules for their own benefit. If the investor is paid too much, the borrower pays too high a rate of interest. If the borrower pays too low a rate, the investor gets too small a return.
 The 72-monbhs settlement plan of 'sThe Alabama Home'' is satisfactory to all mem bers. The investor gets 10 per cent, per an- mum accumulated interest The borrower gets the same rate of profit on his stock that the investor does, so that a payment of SIP dues on a. $1, ,0O0 loan the profit on the stock reduces the rate of interest to 7S0 per cent. These are ideal figures and we have realized them and are settling this way every day. Now is a good time to join the association. Apply to

A TRAITORS FATE.
more recent and even more strik-
ing case is that presented by the polit-
ical situation in Ohio last year, when
a desperate, though unsuccessful, eff
fort was made to defeat the reelection
of Senator Hanna, who. as chairman of
the Republican national committee,
was largely responsible for the election
of President Mckinley in 1896. His ex-
perience in many respects may be lik
ened to that of Senator Quays, who
as the field marshal in the campaign
of 1888, brought victory to the banner
of Republicanism in the election of
General Harrison to the presidency.
Senator Hanna had to meet the work
of a Republican traitor, and he tri-
umphed in the end. In the Ohio state
senate the Republicans had a majority
of one. Senator Burke, an anti-Hanna
Republican, combined with the Demo-
Gratis and organized the upper house in
their interest, thus deprivi1g his party
Of the power and patronage to which
1t was justly entitled In spite of this
fusion Senator Hanna was elected and
returned to the United States senate to
uphold the administration of President
Mckinley, while State Senator Burke
was from the day of his treacherv
marked man, not only in his home dis
trict but throughout the entire COM
monwealth He has been repudiated
not only by his party but by his fellow
members of the legal profession.
Charges assailng his professional in
tegrity have since been made by the
Law association of Columbus, and the
matter is still pending.
All indications are that there will he
few Republicans in this state who will
attempt to follow in Burke's footsteps.

of the Legislature will stand Loyalty by

party and protect the interests and ad-
vance the welfare of the commonwealth
