spondence. There are other little perquis-
ties which are not specifically provided for
ny law, such as sharp trading with pro-
Vlslonal dealers in public documents, gar
Den seeds, allowances of congressman
from the agricultural department, the
botanical garden, the Fish Commission
ana other branches of che public service.
Ihrlfty congressman make il rule not
10 overlook any of these little perquisites,
ana the harvest of a single session might
average something in the neighborhood of
SIOO per annum. The $1,000 usually goes
60 some member of the congressman's
FAMILY. A son, a daughter, or sometimes
ehe wife is designated on the pay rolls as
private secretary to member in order
TO keep that snug little sum in the fam
lily.
Ihere was time when the allowance
Tor stationary was drawn from the sup
ply department of the stationary ROOM OF
late years, however, it has become the
practice among a certain class of econom-
lcally inclined congressman to draw their
stationary allowance in cash and supply
themselves with writing material from
what they can pick up in the committee
rooms or purchase on the bargain count
ers In Cheap John" establishments. In
that way their stationary bill does not
aggregate $25 a session and the surplus of
500 is sailed away at home, where it will
do the most good.
There is brisk business done in the
handling of public documents, garden
seeds, ETC., allotted to congressman. There
are several local firms who deal exclu-
sively in this line of trade. The thrifty
congressman soon becomes aware of the
location of these establishments, and at
once enters into negotiations for unload
ing any marketable material in his al
lotment which he cannot utilize to his per-
sonal advantage among his way back con-
stituentS.

Efforts to Get Them Together on a
Harmonious BASIS.

Brunswick, Ga, March A-Two execu-
tive committees exist in Glynn county.
One is the ring committee, headed by
H. F. Dunwoody, chairman, and has con-
troll of the city offices. The other is the
Good Government Committee, headed by
F. L. Twitty, chairman, and this faction
has control of the county offices. Both
committees claim to be the Democratic
Executive Committee of Glynn; both held
primaries of their own at the last cleo
ton.
An effort Is now being made to bring
the two factions together, to have one
committee and one white primary and
to stop the strife in local politics.
The Dunwoody committee met Thurs
day and passed resolutions for a white
primary and all rules as passed by the
State Committee, with few changes.
These were referred to the Twitty COM
mittee, which met to-day. Resolutions
were passed at the Twitty meeting to-
day looking to a mass meeting of the
Good Government people to consider the
Dunwoody committee proposition and for
appointing a committee TO confer with
the Dunwoody people regarding a joint
white primary.
II the two committees get together on
this line Glynn will have a white pri-
mary, otherwise an old-time Glynn POI
litical fight win ensue, with renewal
of all the old-time troubles.

The Type of the Prevailing Grip.


Although grip prevailed in mild form
during the late autumn months, it has
now taken on an Enthusiastically virulent
type In the extent and character of its
new invasion. During the last fortnight
thousands who have escaped heretofore
have been stricken, and the disease is
plainly epidemic over very wide section
of country.
The type of the disease Is essentially
catarrhal and chiefly manifests itself in
infiammatory affections of the membranes
of the nose, throat and upper air pass
ages. The attack is quite sudden and
there is generally a high temperature,
with pain in the forehead, hacking and
Initiative cough, with general muscular
pains and prostration.
1t is the attention to little things-the
avoidance of draughts, the cultivation of
habits Of temperance in eating and drink
ing, the obedience to all hygienic rules
which can make any one reasonably safe"
