MisnInced Confidence.

Sir Courtenay Boyle was one Of the best
dinner companions imaginable, says the
St. James Gazette. He had more excellent
stories than would fill half-a-dozen big
volumes. One of them was of a sufferer
who called at poulterer's shop for some
turkeys. Some are tough and some are
t-tender?" he queried of the shopman,
who admitted the soft impeachment. Il
I s-suppose there is a Indifference in the
price? the customer remarked, only
to be informed that his supposition was
wrong I'll k-keep b-boys' school," he
said: would you m-mind p-picking out
1.-THE tough ones?" The shopman. with a
wink. separated the tough ones from the
tender ones and once more the customer
asked If no difference could be made in
the price The poulterer was sorry that it
was impossible; ana he was sorry too, no
doubt, when the customer said, Then I'll
take the tender ones!'

FACTS FOR A THoMAsvILLE MAN.

Our esteemed contemporary the Thorn
old Savannah" Savannah is undoubted-
ly one of the oldest cities in the state
and makes less noise than some others,
but why call her sleepy" Does a COM
merce of $100, 100000 a year and a total
business of 1856, 100000 year indicate SOM
Violence? Is there anything Sleepy about
handling more than 100000 bales of cot
ton a year. and leading every other port
in the world In naval stores? Is there
anything happy about a city of $1,000 in
habtants with bank clearances of $500,
81, 900 in twelve months, and an increase
of % per cent. in population. as shown
by the recent census? Is Savannah
sleepy" when she sends Galveston S.
900 and Jacksonville 5000 within a few
days of their disasters, being twice as
much as sent by any other Georgia city,
and when she contributes $11,760 to the
century fund of the University of Geor-
gia being about three times as much as
the next largest contribution? Is it like
ly that a railroad system would spend
SbVOOOOO for new terminals, and three sys-
TENS should combine to build a quarter
million dollar union station, in a slum-
bering city? Does the Thomasville News
chance to know of any other sleepy old
city that has thre@ lines of big ocean
steamships to the North with sailings and
arrivals daily, and where the wharves are
filled with coastwise and foreign ship
ping? But maybe the Townsville News
has formed its opinion with respect to
Savannah because she does not sit on the
front gate post and shout of her achieve
ments continually, and enter into a
squabble and brawl over the state offices.
If our contemporary wishes to see a real
live and hustling city let it come up to
the State Fair, which Savannah proposes
to make the best Georgia has ever had,
If it cannot spare the time from wide

THE INDUSTRIAL CONVENTION.

Throughout the South there is a great
/ deal of interest felt in the Southern In
/ dustrial Convention which meets in Phil
adelphia to-day Sometime ago we called
4 attention to this convention and ex-
/ pressed the hope that out of it something
of practical benefit to the South would
come.
/ The proceedings Of such conventions
consist usually of speeches papers and
resolutions, the benefit of which is not
Immediately apparent The speeches and
papers are forgotten almost as soon as
they are read, and the resolutions, after
having been commented upon by the pa
pers, are seldom referred to again unless
they contain something bearing directly
upon the political or economical situa-
ton.
Would it not be a wise departure on
the part of this convention in Philadel-
phia to appoint committees to investigate
material conditions in the South with the
view of getting Northern men to settle
in the South, establishing Industrial en-
terprises of one kind and another and
inducing Northern capitalists to invest in
the South? In that way both the North
and the South would be benefited. Phil
adelphia, for instance, wants Southern
trade. The Southern people are willing
to trade with her, in fact do trade with
her, but they want something in return
What does she offer? AS far as we can
see she offers nothing. OF course where
the benefits are all on the side of Phila-
delphia it is not likely that the Southern
people will be enthusiastic in sending
trade to that city
But if Philadelphia should help to es-
tablish enterprises in the South which
would direct attention to her and her
advantages as a trading place it would
not be long before she would find South
ern trade flowing in upon her.
There is no doubt that the delegates
from the South are going to be given a
very warm reception in Philadelphia, but
let there be mingled with the speeches,
resolutions, excursions and banquets a
little genuine business. Let Philadelphia
take steps to lend a helping hand in de-
veloping the South's resources and she
viii not want for Southern trade.

A PnrIInmen Anecdote.

Three members of the ministerial front
bench the other day had TO rush across
catch the division bell in a manner that
was not perhaps wholly dignified. says
the st. James Gazette. But it might have
been worse. Members of the House of
Commons have been known to vote in
their shirt-sleeves before now. and there
is a well-remembered case of a member
who rushed into the lobby straight from
his bath In order to be in the House be-
fore the bell stopped. He had a blanket
round him, II is true. but his appearance
was hardly in keeping with the majesty
of the Parliament. and II is sad to have
to record that the enthusiastic NJ. p.
missed his vote after all!

Senator Lodge that he would not be able
to keep his appointment to visit New

a few days in Boston and Cambridge dur

Admiral Dewey's ancestors lived in
the town of Lebanon, Conn, so well
known as the home of Jonathan Trumbull
and his gifted son, the painter. A paper
was read last Tuesday before the New

Boston, by Miss Ella A. Tanning, city
editor of the Norwich Comm Bulletin,
in which the following statement was
made: Josiah Dewey in 1900 bought
from Oneco. son of the great Mohegan
chief Uncas what is yet known as the
Five-Mile Purchase" Miss Tanning re-
counted a romance between a pretty Hep

Suppose leading Democrat had made

TO the representatives of British gold
that the days of high tariffs in this coun-
try were coming to an end what a howl
would have gone up from the protected
classes. Yet this is what a Republican
tinancer from New York did a few days
ago, and it was received with cheering
and enthusiasm. We don't know, how
ever. about the days of high tariffs near
ing an end. The trusts insist OH the tar

than at home and make the American
consumer pay the difference. That is the
tariff question to-day"

 In a more elaborate way MT. Tesla dwelt on his work to a Sun man yesterday after noon. He regards his latest results as far and away the most important he has ever attained. Briefly, Tesla has been able to note a novel manifestation of energy, whichhe knows is not of solar or terres-

While he was conducting his investigations in his Colorado laboratory one day the instrument he was using to observe the electrical condition of the earth was affected in an unaccountable manner. It recorded three distinct though very faint movements, one after the other. These movements were observed not once but many times, the number of impulses varying, and MT. Tesla now firmly believes that, with improved apparatus, it will be quite possible for the people of the earth to communicate with the inhabitants of other planets.
