Admiral Sir Charles Ommaney who
pension, is Sc years old and entered the
British navy in 1926. He fought as mid
shipman at Navarino, served in Sir James

1885 and was the first to discover traces
of the Franklin expedition in 1850. In the
Crimean war he commanded in the White
Sea.
-Thirty-five years ago all England was
ringing with the name of Gov. Eyre; now
he has completely passed out of public
memory. This former Governor of ia
maica, whose suppression of a revolt in
that island created such a ferment in the
England Of the sixties, Is not only alive,
but hale and hearty, in his Devonshire
retreat. He is eighty-five and has been
enjoying the pension of a retired colonial
governor for twenty-six years.

UNQUALIFIED DEMOCRATS.

Gen. Buckner. who ran for Vice Presi-
dent on the Gold Democratic ticket
thinks there should be no such ticket in
the current campaign, but that those who.
voted for Palmer and Buckner. three
years and a half ago, should be left free
to vote as they choose. The opinion will
be very generally agreed with. There is
neither room nor reason for any such
thing as a qualified democracy in this
campaign. Ex-Mayor Hopkins of Chi
cago said the other day There are no
Gold Democrats this year. The man who
does not support the Democratic party is
Republican" The issues are clearly
drawn between the two parties, and there
is no middle ground. Those who profess
to be Gold Democrats are as matter
of fact supporters, directly or indirectly,
of the Republican party, while those who
claim TO be Silver Republicans are as Ger
tainly supporters of the Democratic
party.
There may be differences of opinion
among the members of the Democratic
party on minor points; but do such diff
ferences warrant giving aid and com
fort to the enemy? In religions it fire.
quenuy occurs that there are points in
rituals with which certain individuals
among the church membership are out
of consonance; but the individual remains
a Methodist, or Presbyterian, or Catho-
lie, Notwithstanding the minor objections
10 the creed The sum of good contained
in the creed so incidentally overbalances
the petty objections that IL is accepted as
a whole And so il will be with Demo-
Gratis this year. There may be some
things in the platform which some of
them could wish otherwise, but taken as
a whole the platform is so good and so
strong that they will forego their objec-
tons, and support it, For more than
three years the Republicans have insist ed
that silver is a dead issue. The Demo-
Gratis do not say that 1t is defunct, but
that there Is a greater issue-the preser-
walton of our form of government The
situation is clear on that point Impe-
rialism threatens to supersede republican,
ism. The Republican party stands for
the former and the Democratic party for
the latter. With that issue squarely be-
fore the country, there can be no qualified
or hyphenated Democrats. They must
be just Democrats. nothing more and
nothing less.

Frisbie's Sad Experience,

Did you hear of Frisbies sad expert
ence?' asked Maddox of Gazzam, SAYS
the Philadelphia Inquirer.
II did not" replied Gazzam. What was
it?"
We'll he was going along the street
the other day and he came to one Of these
street stalls. do You mind, where the
man sells writing paper and ink What
does Frisbie do but pick up a bottle of
black ink and a bottle of red ink and
put them in his coat tail pocket and run
off. Well, the stall-keeper yelled Thief
and policeman took after him and COL

How could that be?"
We'll. Frisbie tried to get away from
the officer, and the officer had to comb
him down with his club two or three
times to quiet him. and in doing so he
smashed The ink bottles. and pretty soon
there was red and black ink oozing
through F'risbie's clothes and running
down the pavement That frightened the
officer you know, and then he rang for
an ambulance instead of the patrol wa
gon. Well. they both came running up al
about the same time, and both wanted
TO take Frisbie, the one to the police sta
ton and the other to the hospital. when
the ambulance surgeon got TO looking
around, and he discovered that the red
stuff was not blood but ink, and he went
off in a high state of mind and the hur-
ry-up wagon took Frisbie. But the am
bulance surgeon was in court next day
to tell the judge all he knew about it,"
And what did the judge do with Fris-
bia?''
The Judge told Frisble he was a dou-
ble-dyed villain and sent him to Jail for

She Wa. n smith From Alabama.

A young lawyer here in town has a wife
who happens to belong to one of the most
famous families in the South, says the
Washington Post. She is a Smith of Ala
bama. let us say. and she never forgets
ii. The Smiths of Alabama have always
had violent tempers, and she is a true
Smith in that regard. The Smiths of Ala
bama have always been in the habit of
having their own way about everyt hing,
and she's as Smithy as the Smithiest
when 1t comes to that. To say that she
has led her husband a life is putting 1t
mildly. He hasn't been able to call his soul
his own since he's been able 10 call her
that. One night not many months ago he
announced his intention of going to the
club. The Smith of Alabama partner of his
woes and joys, declared he shouldnt go
He said he would. She said If he did shed
stand in the middle of the floor and scream
till he came back. He told her she might
stand anywhere she liked and do any,
thing she pleased. for all he cared. He was
going to the club. He did go, and the
Smith of Alabama stood in the middle of
the floor and screameA with all the con-
centra Ted fury of a long line Of Smiths
of Alabama. She screamed herself into
Mysteries, and when the husband came
home she was in commissions. He was
terrified at that, and sent in mad haste
AOi Tue HtdI6Sl ne DOCTOR ca me,
examined the patient, and pronounced her
on the verge of collapse. Chloroform
alone could calm those Smiths of Ala
bama nerves. Milady reused at the word
of chloroform.
IN have you know, sir" she shrieked,
that l am a Smith of Alabama. 1 won't
take chloroform. We Smiths never do
take chloroform.
What did you say you were" asked
the physician
"A Smith of Alabama" said she proudly.
The doctor took out note book
This is important" said he. "I have
given chloroform to Englishmen Irishmen,
F'renchmen and Italians, not to mention
cats and congenital idiots, but l never be-
fore had an opportunity to give chlor oform
to Smith of Alabama. l shall write a re-
port of the operation to the medical jour
nal. A Smith of Alabama! How remark
able! Let me make a note. What is the
day of the month, please?"
But somewhere in the depths of her ma
ture the Smith of Alabama had pinch of
the saving salt of a sense of humor. She
rose promptly from the floor, where she
had flung herself. and dashed out of the
room. Her husband has been to the club
many time since then, but though he
walks warily and seems a bit uneasy l
think he feels confident that the Smith
of Ala bama isn't screaming at home.

He Wanted Trunks.

The tall fioorwalker found him wander
ing around the big store as though be-
wildered, says the Chicago News.
Have you been waited on, sir?"
mo; 1 would like to see some trunks"
Trunks? Yes, sir! Simmons take this
gentleman up on the elevator and show
him our new display of trunks"
Simomns, a smart clerk with a chip
diamond and ten-story collar, plotted the
customer to the trunk department
Here they are, SIR began Simmons, in
a rapid-fire tone of voice. 'fEverything in

II am afraid you do not understand me-"
"Oh, yes 1 do. How's this trunk over

"Oh, l see; you wish something larger.

but there is limit to patience"
There is a limit TO mine 1 have been
trying to tell you that 1 wished to see

AxTI-AMERICAN FEELING IN HA-

The Cubans do not feel grateful TO the
Americans for releasing them from the
yoke of Spain. If they had the power
they would drive every American of the
island
We published some days ago the fact
that on July many American flags were
displayed upside down from Cuban resi-
dences 1t is well understood there was
no mistake by the Cubans in thus dis
for whom the United States have given
millions of their wealth and thousands of
the lives of their best citizens.
We published a dispatch from Beau
foEt yesterday, in which there was an ex-
tract from a letter from Lieut.. Elliott, a
son of Congressman Elliott. Of South
Carolina. Lieut.. Elliott IS at present with
his company in Cuba. He recites in his
letter that the Cubans have no love for
the Americans and that they take every
favorable opportunity to show their con-
tempt for them. OF course Americans do
net feel greatly disturbed by exhibitions
Of Cuban contempt, but they cannot help
seeing that the Cubans are not grateful
for the great service which they have
done them.
There is no doubt that It is the purpose
of the American government to carry out
lhe pledge Of Congress, namely, to give
the Cubans their independence, but it
would be an injustice to the Cubans to
turn the island over to them before they
are ready to administer its affairs; in
fact, before there is any civil government.
STILL they take into consideration only
one thing, namely, that they want the
offices. Unless they are judged wrongly,
the chief purpose of those who are lead
ing them is to get control OF the island,
set up a government and issue a vast
amount of bonds. They do not take into
account the fact that they could not sell
Cuban bonds except al a great sacrifice
The United States will turn the control
OF Cuban affairs over TO Cubans just as
soon as Cubans ought to have control of
them, and not before. They have some
thing at stake. The wars in Cuba have
been troublesome TO them, and they do
not intend that there shall be other wars
there in the near future If they can pre-
vent them. Therefore when Cuba IS
turned over to the Cubans, the island will
have an enlightened and stable civil gov
eminent.

CHINAMEN HERE NOT RESPONSE
RIFE

Cinnamon in this country are not re-
sponsible for the outrages which have been
committed in China within the last few
weeks, and which are still being commit
ted. The great majority of them are
from the southern provinces of China, and
are not only inoffensive, but regard with
feelings of horror the outrages which
are being committed by the Boxers. The
race to which they belong is radically diff
ferent from that which produces the Box
ers. The Boxers are Manchus, who in
habit the northern provinces, and who
are much more warlike and cruel than the
people of the southern provinces.
There seems to be disposition in some
parts OF this country to ill-treat China
men on account of the outrages of which
Christians in China have been made the
victims. In a number OF small towns the
lsundries of Cinnamon have been stoned,
and in a few instances the laundrymen
themselves have been assaulted. II is
gratifying, however, that the persons who
have been guilty of these outrages, have
been roughs. No sef-respecting person
OF influence has been guilty of these bar
barous acts,
The authorities in towns in which there
are Cinnamon should make il a point to
see that Cinnamon within their jurisdIc-
ton are not molested. II Cinnamon in
this country should be assaulted and 9TH
erwise ill-treated, simply because Ameri-
cans have been massacred in China, the
American people would not have any rea-
son for holding that their civilization was
better than that of the Chinese. Besides,
IL the United States should ask for in
demnity for American victims of Chinese
violence. China would have an offset-she
would demand Indemnity for the Chinese
victims OF mob violence IN this country.
irresponsible persons in towns and
cities, who are always on the lookout for
opportunities and excuses for committing
acts OF violence, should be promptly ana
sternly repressed by the authorities IL
they should manifest disposition to at
tack peaceably disposed and low-abdlng
Cinnamon. The toughs should not be
permitted to decide the character OF the
treatment Cinnamon in the United States
are 20 receive pending the unhappy condi-
| tion Of affairs in China.

Several farmers who attended the recent
wheat convention in Macon reported a
scarcity of labor in their sections. Mr..
Willis, of Walden, IN Bib said that the
labor question was becoming really Sc
rious with him. 1t was the supposition of
many of the farmers that the colored la
borers had left the farms and gone TO the
cities While that Is in a measure true,
no doubt, 1t seems that in some of the
cities also there Is a scarcity of labor In
our Atlanta dispatches OF yesterday it was
stated that a railroad company construct
ing q line around that city is finding
1t very difficult to secure la borers. So few
men are Offering their services as labor
ers that the construction OF the road has
been delayed considerably. Presuma bly,
fair wages are offered by the railroad COM
pany, and II large numbers Of negroes are
leaving the country for the cities, Atlanta
ought to be receiving a fair proportion of
them. II is possible that the lumber mills
and turpentine farms, which are very
busy just at this season, have absorbed
more than their usual quota Of laborers.
