TAKING OTHER PEOPLES MAIL.

Those persons who have been in the
habit of taking other peoples mail
from the postoflice and failing to give
it to the one to whom it is addressed
or return it to- the postofice, should
know that they are liable to severe
punishment.
The new postoffice ruling has Just
gone into effect imposing fine of
$500 or one years imprisonment on
any one who, through carlessness or
otherwise, takes mail not belonging to
him from the office and fails to return
it Immediately. This refers to news
papers as we'll as to letters and other
valuable mail. People should examine
their mail when taking it from the
postoffice, before leaving the building.
To say it was the postmaster's fault
will cut no figure under this ruling. 1t
viii be your fault if you do not return
it, and you will be the one to suffer.

TRIBUTE OF RESPECT.

Died, in Marietta, Ga, Febru-
arv p, 1901, William Edward
Granting.
In the death Of Brother Gram
ling the Marietta Fire Department
and Marietta Fire Co. No. 1, have
sustained an irreparable loss. He
was one of the original members
of Marietta Fire Company, and
was continuously it's engineer
from the time its steamer was pur-
chased until his death. For many
years he gave largely OF his time
for the furtherance of his compa-
nys interests, and to his energy
and ability is largely due our
present efficient fire department.
He was ready at all times and on
all occasions to respond to duty's
call, and in our social meetings
he always took prominent part.
At all times and III every way he
was ever ready to do what he
could to further the interests of
our department.
He will be greatly missed by
the department as a whole, end
more especially in his personal
relation to them as individuals.
To his family we tender our sim
cere sympathy in their bereave-
ment.
We recommend that page of
our minute book be dedicated to
his memory, copy furnished to
his family, and this report pub
lished in the Marietta Journal.
All of which is respectfully sub
mitted. JOE P. LEGB,
JNo. R. GREER,

Stick to Your Last.

A minister of the gospel announced in
Macon last Saturday in the Telegraph
that he would speak the following Sun
day evening on the subject, Mrs. Nation
and her Little Ratchet" This adj
dress was intended to take the place of
the regular Sunday evening service. An
other minister in Savannah not long ago
took as his text. "The Furnace of
Earth" sensational romance of doubt
tul tone by a recent female writer. The
minister commended the book, saving
that 1T teaches virtue by showing the
awtulness of vice.
Its Just such .so-called preaching as
this that has filled the world with wick.
edness and infidelity. When people
read books whose tone is distinctly i'm
| pure they lose sight of the moral in
tended to be taught by their interest
in the absorbing plot. The consequence
is that poisonous seeds are sown in the
mind which all the morals that ever
can be drawn will not extirpate.
The temperance question, as exem.
pItled in one phrase by Mrs. Nation. is
purely political one and, as such. ha,
no possible bearing on the saving OF
i mems souls, for which purpose the
church was instituted. If all these
subjects are to be discussed in church
where will be the time to attend to the
weightier matter of soul saving? II
the preac her is to vie with the lecturer
and the stump speaker will not the
greatly prefer to hear the latter
as they are generally more skilled
in the management OF the subjects
which they handle? Will not the
churches be neglected or entirely SUBJ
verted if this is to be the rule? VIII
not infidelity be the result? Apropos
to the Kansas episode, a movement is
on foot iii that state to have a church
which will exclude everything not of a
spiritual nature. The evil result OF
mixing religion and politics have been
felt in that state and reaction has
set in.

subscription of $50, Our chapter was
greatly honored by the presence of Miss
Matte Shiebley, the secretary of the
Rome chapter and editor of the Georgia

Coal Becoming Scarce.

1t is said that an effort is being
made by the union miners of this
district to have President Mitchell
of the National Union of the
United Mine Workers of America,
intercede and call out the miners
now being employed at the mines
near here, operated by independ-
ent mine owners.
In case this should be done
Florence will suffer as two of the
largest mills in the city, the Union
and Cyanide, are being supplied
from the Smith q Cowan mine,
near Williamsburg. The United
Oil company also receives its coal
supply from the Peanut mine
This is owned by Simon Smith. In
shutting down these places it
would work a great harm to Flor
ence.
M. ID Williams and George
Wright, who have been supplying
local orders are now shipping every
pound of their product to Cripple
Greek and it is understood that no
more coal will be sold here until
the present troubles are settled.
1t is further stated that the mine
operated by the Victor Coal and
Coke company, at Chandler, will
be closed down if the smaller ones
are asked to.
In case these places s-the last
resort Florence has for coal-are
closed, the town will be up against
scarcity. 1t is to be sincerely
hoped they will be allowed to work
uninterruptedly.
