RECRUITING STILL SLOW.
Two Volunteers Enlisted Out of Ten
Applicants Yesterday.

Again nothing much was doing in the
recruiting line yesterday. Ten young
men who fancied they would like the life
of a soldier bold applied for admission into
the provisional army that is to serve in
the Philippines, but Lieut.. C. B. Pritch-
ard, Jr., recruiting officer, found only two
of the number who could pass the requi-
site physical examination. The result was
that the rest were turned sorrowfuLy
away, and the new army must needs be
content with but two accessions.
Lieut.. Pritchard augurs well, however,
from the number OF applications made.
His correspondence has been greatly in
creased by inquiry made from the country
districts young men being anxious to as
certain whether or not they would fill tho
requirements and be admitted to service

off, unless the men, for some particular
reason, desire TO spend two or three davs

LARGE VOLUME OF BUSINESS.
Receipts at the POstodice the Best
Evidence of II.

The gross receipts Of the Savannah post
office are probably the best index Of the
volume of its business, and also the gen.
eral business Of the city. For the. last three
years the receipts have shown an increase
which indicates the steady advance in Sa-
vannah's volume of correspondence.
According to statistics prepared by As
sistant Postmaster p. Aston Waring, the
receipts of the Office for the first quarter
of 1897 were S4S52. 50, and for the second
quarter, 81 $3.50; for the first quarter of
1893 the receipts were $9l, 1850. and for the
second quarter, $26.177OS; for the first quar-
ter OF 1879 the receipts were $34,094a, and
for the. second quarter SIS 9.03. The gross
receipts are regarded as the best evidence
OF the business the office is doing, as they
represent the amount of matter handled.
Owing to the increase in business Post
master Doyle recently succeeded in get
ting an additional Office force, which les

the officials have no doubt about their

office to the satisfaction of the public.
Preparation is being made for the shift

must be made at the most convenient

ONE ON THE POLITICIAN.
Why Col. William j. Bryan Could
Never lie a Good Baptist.

A good story, ascribed to a prominent
Georgia politician is going the round of
the press. 1t is new, TOO, and illustrates
somewhat one of the pecuiarities of the
last Presidential candidate of the Demo
cratic party-one that his enemies are
fond of exaggerating and upon which they
often comment.
As the story goes, THIS politician was
going North on a Coast Line train, when
he met a genial Baptist preacher, with
whom he soon started an animated con
Versation. The subject drifted around to
politics and thence to religion, and in the
course of the conversation the preacher
remarked that he could never hope to
make a good Baptist out of Col. Bryan.
The politician was not willing to admit
that anything was beyond the reach of
the erstwhile leader of his party and
wanted 10 know why.
Because" said the preacher, "Mr Bry-
ana would never consent to remain out Of
pubic view long enough 10 be immersed. -
In other company the politician would
have admitted that this put the drinks Oil
him. As it was he wended his way to
the cooler, returned with a glass Of iced
water and so'emn.y presented it to the
preacher. The latter looked for a moment
at the beverage hat was offered him and
then accepted and drank it with becoming
gravity The subject of Mr.. Bryan was
dropped from the conversation
