THE BABY's T T JOKE.
1t Worried the Fat Man, but He Tried
to Enjoy 1t. tf55-

1t Worried the Fat Man, but He Tried
t. Enjoy It.
It happened in one of the late trains.
Everybody was trying to get to sleep,
and when the voice Of a baby was sud
denly lifted up in a robust wall it was
not met with expressions Of joy. 1t
cried steadily from, Spring Garden
street to Columbia avenue. Then 1t
accidentally dropped a. pasteboard box
1t had. A very stout and, like his kind,
very affable man across the aisle
stopped heavily and picked 1t up.
The child stopped crying as it took
1t and promptly dropped 1t again. The
man, thinking It an. accident, picked
1t up once more. This time the baby
actually smiled. and. as he threw it
down audibly cooed with delight. The
man looked distinctly uncomfortable
and became interested in something
outside the window. The child looked
at the box a moment, then at the man,
and, seeing nothing else, resumed his
wall, with much added wind. The
look Of despair resettled on the face Of
the woman with the headache, and-sh
gave a convulsive shudder as she felt
her head beginning to jump.
She gave one awful glance at the
baby and then leaned over to the stout
man, back Of whom she was sitting.
i"My dear sir" said she, II have q VIC
: lent headache, and I am in misery.
Won't you please pick up that box
again?" And with a highly artificial
smile he complied. Out of pure. our
tesy he became q box lifting autom-
atom. his piles Of adipose making each
stoop come harder. But when he wip-
ed the Precipitation from his brow and
staggered out Of the car at German

afflicted woman, Is we'll az every other

MOODY's OWN METHODS.
Renting Pews and Filling Them, and Gather
ing Up Recruits From the Streets.

William Il. Moody, in writing for
The Saturday Evening Post the life
his father, Dwight i. Moody, tells
many stories of the famous evangelist.
In his article this week he says: "AS
a boy in. Northtield he had achieved
remarkable results in swelling the at
tendance at the Sunday School, and
SO, arguing from that, he conceived
the idea that he could be of much
value to Plymouth Church as a re-
cruiting agent. Having come to this
decision he hired a pew with the un-
derstanding that he was to fill it each
Sunday. Like everything else he un-
dertook, he fulfilled his commission
with intense earnestness and enthusi-
asm. He did not wait for the young
men to come to church. but he went
after them, stopping them on street
corners, visiting them in their lonely
rooms, and even calling them out of
saloons. 1t was altogether new and
work had an irresistible effect, with
the consequence that in a short time
young Moody was renting six pews
which he filled every Sunday with his
strange and motley guests.
''There was little mission on Mort
Wells Street and he applied for a
class. He was told that the sixteen
teachers were amply able to instruct
the twelve scholars, but if he would
provide his own class they would be
very glad to have him. This was just
what Mr.. Moody wanted. Next Sun
day there was a sensation. Young
Moody opened the door and led in a
procession of eighteen little hood

CHATHAM HOLDS FIRST MEETING.
Young Democracy of Bynum Had Beautiful
Float.
Pittsboro, n. c.. April

Pittsboro, n. c.. April II.
Chatham county boasts that she is the
first county in North Carolina to hold a
meeting to ratfy the State nomina tionS,
and the ratification meeting was a grand
success. The court house was tastily
decorated with bunting and in several
places on the stage were placards in
scribed, Governor Aycock."
The ladies were out in great force
and made the music for the meeting.
The speakers of the evening were
Messrs H. A. London, and R. H. Hayes,
T. H. Calvert and A. NJ. Moore, who ex-
planned the Amendment so clearly that
no fair minded man can now say that it
will disfranchise any white man or work
a hardship on the negro.
White Supremacy barges were distribut-
ed to all present, and from now on, moth
ing will be left undone, that will tend to
bring Chatham back in the Democratic
column next August.
The young Democracy of Bynum's fac
tory attended in a body and had a very
unique and beautiful float with white
Supremacy printed on either side, it was
borne on the shoulders of four men and
placed on the rostrum, they were voted
the thanks of the club, not only for the
float, but for the large delegation that
they brought over.

A SAMPLE MADE HIM. SWEAR
That He Would Never Again
Vote Democratic Ticket,
Senator PritchardS Brother Had ncompate n
Man Reappointed Postmaster After He
Took the Oath.

To the Editor: Geo. X. Pritchard,
of Mitchell county, brother of Senator
Pritchard, comes to Marion to take
the cars when going to Washington,
where he has job as Assistant Ser
geant-at-Arms. Recently when on
one of these trips there occurred here
an incident which demonstrates the
picayunish lengths to which Republi-
cans will 90.
He met man by the name of Van
Laclley who had previously kept q
postoftice about six miles north of
here, but had been removed
on account of incompetency.
Since then he has been vOt-
ing the Democratic ticket. Van
Lackey told Pritchard that if he would
have him reinstated he would never
again vote the Democratic ticket.
will you swear that?" said Pritch-
ard. Yes said Van Lackey, Il will
swear it," Pritchard then sent for a
magistrate and made him swear eter-
nal allegiance to the Republican par
ty. Pritchard went to Washington
and had Van Lackey reinstated at
once.
Mr.. r. L. c. Gibson. the deposed
postmaster, says the office pays only
seven cents a day. Mr.. Gibson is a
Democrat and will support the amend
ment.
] understand that the Republicans
of Mitchell have instructed for George
Pritchard for Congress. Spencer
Blackburn, l believe, has been endors-
ed by another county, and Linney is
still in the field.
In an interview with a representa-
tive of the Washington Post, ] see,
Linney is very sanguine about his
own nomination, but says the Demo
Gratis will overcome his 1900 majority
and defeat him, for they are so en-
Unused over carrying the amendment
that they will count him out. Linney
well knows that never before was
there such a turning to Democracy.
and that no Republican can be elected
in this district. Thus four months
before the election he tries TO hide his
own weakness by crying stop thief.
