The Atlanta Constitu ion says the bill
making the birthday of jeff Davis
legal holiday went through one house
of the Georgia Legislature with
whirl." The following is the account
given by the Constitution of this ef-
fort Of Georgians to prove their devo-
ton to the leader of the lost cause.
THE bill introduced last week by
Mr.. Oliver of Burke to make the birth
day of the president of the Confederacy
q legal holiday was adversely reported
by the general judiciary committee.
Mr.. Oliver arose to disagree with the
committees report. Then there was
some very decided, disagreement. Mr..
Oliver spoke in the most eloquent and
pathetic terms of the great man who
did so much for the South and for the
Confederacy. He begged that the mem
bers of the Georgia Legislature would
not consent TO an adverse report on the
bill, but that they would rally with
him and d. this honor to the name Of
the dead president. He said that 9TH
er Confederates had been honored, but
that Jefferson Davis, the greatest of
them all, had never been voted an hon
or here. He pleaded earnestly for his
measure and his speech had it's eff
feet. Mr.. Fogarty of Richmond, chair
man of the general judiciary commit
tee, explained his position. He believ-
ed in honoring the great men of the
Confederacy. The Legislature had al
ready made the birthday of that great
est hero, Bob Lee, legal holiday. but
If the Legislature chose to do honor to
another of the great Confederates he
would not object. He had no decided
opinion either way. Mr. Fogarty
thought that the Legislature could not
do too much honor to the great men
OF the Confederate cause. He was not
opposed to Mr.. divers bill in any de-
cided way. There was some other
talking on the measure and then the
chr nut Mr.. divers motion to dis
agree with the report of the commit
tee. The result points to the almost
unanimous passage of the bill. Nearly
every man in the house yelled out his
vote to disagree with the adverse re-
port. One man voted against Mr..
divers motion. Nearly all of the
members express themselves as being
in favor of making the birthday of
Davis a legal holiday. Mr.. Oliver is
confident that his bill will pass"

From scientific experiments upon
more than 1000 persons, DR.. ]. H. KEEL
logg. of Battle Creek, Mich, has de-
termined the effects of one ounce of
alcohol administered internally to be
the following: ID To diminish severe
activity; (2) to diminish cerebral activ-
ity; (3) to impair the co-ordinating
power of the brain; "a to lessen mus
cular strength; (S) to decrease diges-
tive activity to a notable extent. Both
his medical experience and laboratory
research have convinced him that it is
an error to regard alcohol as an aid
to digestion, as it has proven highly
detrimental. This influence upon the
digestion, he declares, is exactly what
would be expected of drug that, like
alcohol, is paralyzer of protoplasmic
activity, an anaesthetic and a sedative,
and not, as has been enormously sup
posed a stimulant

Gen. Gordon,s Prs.entImsnt.

When presentiments come true thew
are remembered and talked about.
When they do not come true-as hap
pens nine times in ten-they are quick
ly forgotten. Before every battle
many soldiers are sure they are going
to be killed, and of course this feeling
is sometimes justified by the event. A
writer in the New York Sun has col
lected numerous examples of soldiers
1orebodings, true and false, one of the
most dramatic of which is quoted be-
low
One Of the most noted Confederate
leaders now living, Gen. John B. Cor
don, was the victim of a false pre-
sentiment, while waging a hopelessIy
warfare against Sheridan in the Shen-
andoah valley in 1864. One night he
was suddenly ordered by his superior
officer, Gen. Jubal EARLY to lead out
his entire command and storm a Fed
eral fort
Il never was more indignant in my
life" says General Gordon, than when
l heard that order l knew it was a
perfectly unnecessary thing to do, and
explained to General Early that we
could accomplish our plan of campaign
without slaughtering my command by
this attempt to storm strong posi-
ton "a position that would fall of itself
when we should make the proper
movement.
Early took no other notice of my
explanation than to send me word that
if did not care to execute the order
he would delegate its execution to some
one else. This reply made me boil
with fresh indignation. felt it to be
an insult, but as it was my place to
obey orders regardless of consequences,
issued the necessary instruction for
a movement at daylight next morning.

A herd Of white deer was seen near
Kingnan, Maine, few sdays-agb. and
every hunter for twenty miles Is now
trying to get one OF the animals. The
herd was 6rst seen by a Newport
sportsman. For awhile he was so be-
wildered that he did not know what to
do, for Is may be that no man before
him ever saw more than one white deer
at a time in the Maine woods. He sue
eeeded in killing a big white buck
weighing about 225 pounds, and he left
on the next train for home, after hay
ing been here only three days. The
buck was almost as white as snow.
There was patch of brown hair on
his right side near the rump. When
the man arrived in Bangor he met a
taxidermist, who bought the deer at
handsome price. The taxidermist says
that he has mounted only one white
deer in his life. and that was for Lon
don man, who wanted it to present 10
the British museum.

The Empress Devotion.

From the Cleveland Plain-Dealer: A
charming anecdote is going the rounds,
which proves the devotion of the GeY-
man Empress to her consort. Kaiser
Wilhelm was not long ago about 10
leave Berlin, and as he returned from
his daily drive he stopped at the Aus
trian Embassy to visit the ambassador
before his departure. Some interest.
ing political event had just occurred
and the diplomat and his august Wis
itor became so engrossed in CONVEX.
sation that time sped on unnoticed
Suddenly the Emperor started, and
glancing at his watch, exclaimed with
genuine considerations: 81 am too latel
Pray connect the telephone with the
palace; l should like at least to take
leave of my wife in that way" His
Majesty's wish was instantly fulfilled
and affectionate messages were sent ~
and fro from the imperial abode. WheL
the last words had been spoken the
Kaiser said, laughingly: That is all
right, we have still few minutes lett
to continue what we were saying" AL
most Immediately after, as the EN-
psror was in the act of taking leave
of his host, one of the palace carriages
dashed up to the Embassy, and before
he and the ambassador understood
what had happened the Empress stood
before them in a gorgeous dressing
gown and with an ermine lined cloak
the first thing which came to hand
hastily thrown over her shoulders.
With one of her delightful smiles she
apologized for her sudden avent, say
ing: Il beg Austria-Hungary's pardon
for appearing in morning toilette, but
cannot let my husband depart with
out bidding him farewell"

be no action visible to the world, but
nevertheless something has been done.
Character has been modified, for good

who desires, who resolves, who loves,
who hates, has wrought a deed upon
a man-himself. Invisible as these
deeds of brain and heart may be, it

Parnel, IN his short way with other peo-
pie, was no respecter of persons, says the
London News. He could be quite as short
with English ladies as with Irish members.
a great lady in London asked him to din
ner-this was about the time of the "h,s-
tOric handshake." lie did not answer the
invitation and he did not go TO the dinner.
week later he ielegraphed to Lady -
saying he would dine with her on the fol-
lowing evening. Il wrote to you" she
said inviting you for last Wednesday,"
"Ah,' he said, never write to me; always
wire" He never wrote letter if he could
help it, and seldom troubled to open those
which he received. An ex-cablnet minis
ter had invited him TO dine He did not
answer and he did not come The ex

and reminded him of the invitation. Il ex-

1t is curious that Parnels masterful
ways were united with great weak-minded-
ness in the matter of foolish superstitions.
There is one delightful story which unites
the two characteristics. He was consider
ing a land bill 10 amend the act of 1881
He went carefully through the draft and
struck out a clause which he considered
Objectionable. When the task was com
pleted and the fair copy made This will
never dol" he exclaimed. There are thir-
teen clauses" No time was to be lost if
the bill was to reach the Queens printers
in time for distribution Mr.. ParneU and
the craftsman were in perplexity. Il have
it, said he, add that id clause of yoms
and that win get US out of the difficulty"
Another of his supersttions was dislike
of green. Some of his letters were once
impounded Among them was one to his
sister at Avondale begging her to have a
