The Custom House officials at New
York are far from being the only ones
anathmatized by travellers, says the
New York Times. An American wom-
an who is travelling in Turkey writes
this to friend in this city:
Il will complain no more of our eng
toms officials. The other day l sent a
large doll to Switzerland to a friend.
1t was dressed carefully in a Turkish
costume. but it go no further than the
custom House here in Constantinople
where it was stopped by superior or
ders, as 1t was not considered fitting
that doll should be dressed as a Tur-
kish lady
This was bad enough, but to-day 7
heard of worse case A friend who
is to remain here for several years re-
ceiVed from Persia some lovely Per-
sian carpets of great value. Unfortu-
nately the maker, Habibollah. had
woven his name into the fabric. This
was at once noticed, and my friend was
informed that the carpet must be ex-
ported at once. And what on earth do
you think the reason was? The last
syllables of the name almost made AL
lah,' and the customs officials decided
that 1T is impossible to allow the name
OF God in carpet which is to be trod-
den on"
Il will never say anything more
about our appraisers. Those l will meet
at the pier on my return are gems
compared to these Turks and others
that L have met on this trip

Personal.

Gen. Charles Haywood, comman-
dant of the United States Marine Corps
holds the oldest commission in either
branch of the fighting force. Next to
him comes Admiral Dewey.
The Palestine (Tex) Chapter of
the Daughters of the Confederacy is
raising funds for a monument to John
II. Reagan, the surviving member of
the Confederate cabinet. A site has
been granted by the City Council at
the intersection of two of the principal
streets and the monument will prob
ably be fountain, with bronze
statue of the statesman.
The Castle of Friedrichsof, which
has become the property of Prince and
Princess Frederick Charles of Hesse.
was built with the legacy somewhat
Unexpectedly bequeathed by the Ouch
ess Galliera to the Empress Frederick.
The Duchess Galliera's splendid hotel
in Paris is now occupied by the Aus
trian embassy. During the latter years
of the Duchess lifetime it was lent to
the Comte de Paris, and it was in its
saloons that the famous party took
place in honor of the betrothal of the
Crown Prince of Portugal and Princess
Amelie.
Owing to events preceding the cor
onation King Edward will spend most
of next year in the metropolis, only
going to Windsor, it is expected, for
the week-ends and for Ascot race
week. Therefore. only just sufficient
staff will be kept at the castle to at
tend on His Majesty at these periods.
1t is thought that the King will make
most of his journeys to and from Lon
don by automobile. The horses in the
royal news at Windsor have been re-
duced by about thirty. and number
of stable helpers have been discharged
When the late Empress Frederick
was Crown Princess Victoria, she Of
ten, on her walks or rides in the for
est reserves, talked with the poor wo-
ment who searched therein for twigs
for firewood, and gave them presents.
The Crown Prince was less pleased
with these women, as they sometimes
interfered with his hunting. So he told
the forester to exclude them. A few
days later he found them in the park
again. He summoned the forester, who
explained that he had carried out his
orders, but that the women had told
him that if they were punished, they
would tell the Crown Princess. The
Crown Prince thereat laughed so loud
ly that his horse SHE'D.

HELPLESS COUNTIES.

A few days ago, in commenting on
the annual report by State School
Commissioner Glenn, we urged that
each county be required to raise by
local taxation for school purposes as
much as it received from the state. we
knew, of course, that this would not
be popular in those counties which now
get more from the state treasury than
they nay into it, but we did not know
that they were benefitting so greatly
from the pension and school funds.
For instance, Banks county pays to
the state in taxes $7.29S.92, and gets
back in pensions IS, $50. and in school
money $7,59S.12. In other words, the
county gets more than twice as much
from the state as it pays towards the
states revenue. Carroll county pays
in taxes S20,S0113, and gets in pensions
$14.110 and for schools SIS. 66S.0S. Gwin-
nett gives up to the state $22.67s.72 in
taxes, and gets in pensions $12,s25 and
for schools $16.S55.0S.
We could mention many other coun-
ties which get more than they give,
but the foregoing are sufficient to show
the wrong that is being perpetrated on
those counties which not only support
their own schools and pay their own
pensions, but contribute thousands
upon thousands of dollars annually to
make up the deficiencies of other coun-
ties.
Chatham county, that has a popula-
ton three times as large as that of
Carroll, receives in pensions only 1885
a year, while Carroll gets s14,110. There
must be something radically wrong
somewhere, or else the tax burden
would not be so heavy upon some coun-
ties, and so light upon others as to be
practically no burden at all.
Would it not be well for those who
are now discussing the methods for
raising additional revenue for the state
without increasing the tax rate to de-
wise some plan for relieving those
counties which are now furnishing PEN
sion and school money for large num-
Der of other counties of the unjust bur-
den which they are carrying?

Another Ananias.

There were crowd of calamity
howlers gathered in a hotel rotunda
during the great drought of the past
month, and each was telling the other
that all the crops would be burned up
and everybody would starve to death.
says the Memphis Scimitar. An old
man, who has the reputation of being
man who can always tell story bet
ter than the one just told, put in his
voice and said that the present drought
was nothing to the one they had when
he was a boy in "Carliny."
They all listened carefully to his
wonderful story of how so many peo-
pie starved to death, and how, when
they cut their bodies open they found
that they had actually eaten grass be-
fore they died. He told the story
through without interruption, but as
soon as he finished one of his listeners
asked:
But why did they cut open their
bodies?"
This was poser for the old man.
but after splitting refiectively at a
spot on the wall, he said:
why, to see what they starved to
death on, of course"
Then he wondered what they all
wanted him to buy the drinks for.

Juarez Knew the Language.

Capt. Theodore Schultz, who has just
returned from the Philippines, tells
funny story of native, man of some
much pride in few words of English
that he knew, says the st. Louis Post
Dispatch. From dealing with the SOL
diers and changing their money for
them he had learned to say "Haf no
change" and HAT a Mother" The word
"good-by" was the next in his vocabu-
larry. From the side of a backing box
he learned to pronounce the legend
'Rickseys Is the Best
There his education ended, but he
glor1ed in that much and aired his
knowledge on every possible occasion.
This fact was a source of great merri-
ment to those officers of the army
who were stationed in his town and
VINO came in constant contact with
him.
One day it was announced that the
commanding general of the district
would pay visit of state to the town.
with a view to inspecting the civil
government and the condition of the
soldiers stationed there.
"Jaurez," one of the officers said to
the English speaking native, but taking
IN Spanish, here is your chance to
show the general your knowledge of
English. You say over what you know
to him and he may make you the civil
governor of the province. He likes to

Juarez was ambitious, so the offered
opportunity gave him great joy. He
prepared for the visit with great cere-
mony and, attired in his finest raiment.
he, with the others, met the general. a
dlgnified man. As soon as the introduc-
tons were over Juarez began his Eng
Ilsh in loud voice to the general.
An ell Heneral, goo'-by, L hat no

The army officers had to explain to
the general that Juarez was a HARM

from being sent to prison for Ieze ma :

Making a columbu. statue.

A story is told of a brass founder of
this city, who was one day visited by
a friend acting as agent for one of the
cities of Central America, says the
New York Times. The agent asked
what it would cost to cast a statue of
Christopher Columbus for the public
square of the city The amount was
far in excess of the sum which the
man had at his disposal. He was
about leaving, in despair of being able
to secure the statue, when the brass
founder said:
Come back in the junk yard, and let
us see what can be found there"
He went back and the brass founder
showed him a colossal statue of Gam
brinus, recently removed from the
front of large brewing establishment
Under his feet rested beer keg; in
his hand was large and overlooking
schooner; his beard was long and shay
gy, and about his brows was wreathed
a garland of barley and hops.
Why, this will never do" said the
commission merchant. Il want a
statue of Columbus"
Wait until l have touched this one
up. Come back in about week, and
see what you think of 1t. If it suits
you, you can have it for the amount
you have at your disposal"
AS soon as the visitor had gone the
brass founder set two men at work
on the figure of Gambrinus. They re-
moved the beer keg from under his
right foot, and placed there an anchor
and coil of rope; from his hand they
removed the goblet, and substituted a
globe, with the continents traced on
Mt; from his brow they took the wreath
of barley and hops, and substituted a
wreath of laurel, and then proceeded 10
trim up his whiskers. The finishing
touch consisted in putting at the base
of the statue christopher Colombo"
When the commission merchant came
he was delighted with the figure, and,
purchasing it, shipped it to the Gen.
trail American city, where it adorns the
public square, and is looked upon with
generation by the citizens of that town.

The plea of Park and Tree Commits
sionef Theus for more trees is one that
should attract the attention and con-
sideration of those property owners
who have lot frontages that would ac-
commodate trees. Nothing adds more
TO the beauty and pleasantness of a
dwelling site than fine trees, and in
addition trees enhance the value of
the property. For the low cost of 81
TO SO each trees will be furnished,
planted and guaranteed by the COM
mission. That is very reasonable
charge, and places 1t within the reach
OF every lot owner to have his property
embelllshed with living and beautiful
green. Public spirited lot owners
ought 10 be willing TO spend 81 20 Sc
each for the sake OF adding 10 the
beauty Of the city. leaving out Of con-
slderation the individual pleasure that
would be derived from the ownership
~ the trees.

Jim Corbett, the prize fighter. was in
court in New York the other day TO be
examined in supplementary proceed
ings. He admitted that he had been
in possession of several fortunes since
he entered the prize fighting business,
but was at present dead broke" He
found it necessary ito maintain his
position" to live at the rate of at least
500. 900 a year. Twenty-Five thousand
dollars, he had considered but a small
matter. At the end of it all, however,
he is dead broke" 1t appears, there
fore, that the gentleman" pugilist is
not very different from the admittedly
tough pugilist. They all go the pace -
and at the end become dead broke
John L. Sullivan has probably made
more money out Of pugilism than any
other man who ever engaged in it. and
now Sullivan is in the list of those
whoqare broke.

nUyING SUGAR PLANTATIONS.

American capital is being invested in
sugar plantations to a very large
amount in Cuba and Porto Rico. A re-
cent statement in New York paper
showed that tens of thousands of acres
of sugar lands were being purchased
In these islands by American capital
lists and syndicates. At the rate at
which these lands are being purchased
it will be only few years before all
of the best of them in either island
will be in the possession of citizens #
this country.
Does not this mean that a strong eff
fort is to be made to have the tariff
on raw sugar repealed? 1t certainly
does. And it has been stated time and
tradiction, that the sugar trust is anx-
ious to have the duty removed from raw
sugar. Its purpose is of course to have
a sufficient tariff retained on refined
sugar to keep the foreign article out of
our market. The trust would then have
ket of this country.
The sugar growers of Cuba would like
that arrangement because it would
permit them to sell their raw product
In this country free of duty. They
would get a much better price per
pound for it than they do now-in fact,
they would have the most profitable SUI
gar plantations in the world, not even
excepting those of Hawaii.
OF course our beet sugar industry
and our sugar cane plantations would
be ruined. That is not a matter, how
ever, in which the owners of the sugar
lands of Cuba and Porto Rico and the
sugar trust are concerned. There will
be hot fight, however, one that will
be notable in the history of the tariff
battles which have been waged from
time to time in Congress, before Gu
ban sugar will come into our market
free of duty, unless Cuba becomes an
nexed.
