PASSING THRONG.

Atraveling salesman tells a good story of the present campaign He was at Ac- tive, Bibb County. last Friday when G. D. Rice editor of The Blocton Messenger, appeared there to speak for former Gov ernor Johnston. Active is an unpreten- tous village with two stores One of the merchants of Active is rampant Jelks man. The other merchant is equally can tankerous for Johnston It follows that the willy drummer who has goods to of fer to Active dealers fits his politics to the occasion. The advent of Editor Rice into Active had been skilfully advertised and GOodly crowd was on hand to liS- ten to the speech which was to be deliv- cred from the front of the store which flew the Johnston flag. The crowd had gathered about this store and the spirits Of the Jelks merchant were running low. Seeing despair lowering over his friend the city drummer devised scheme to destroy the Johnston meeting. The Jelks merchant owned a music boX-one of those great big machines that can be heard a city block. The drummer and his merchant friends hauled the music box to the front of the store and waited. Ed itor Rice had not gone far beyond; Eel low Citizens-Johnston is the greatest man, etc" when something happened that at least had the earmark' of newneSs to the citizens of the interior district of Bibb County The city drummer had turned loose the music box. Thore,ll Be flot Time in the Old Town Tonight" sounded the music box and the Bihb County crowd prickcd up it's ears. One by one the audience sauntercd toward the music box and one by one Editor Rice's audience grew legs Were Marching on to Vic tory" shreked the music box and some more of the Bibbites joined the crowd about the musical instrument Finally but three men were about the BloctOn editor and he adjourned his meeting.

Hicks Forecasts for April.

A reactionary storm disturbance, be-
ginning the last Of March, will expend
its force by April lst, high barometer
westerly winds and cooler weather fol-
lowing up the disturbance and lasting
two or three days, during which change
to fair and cooler, frosty nights will
prevail in most parts Of the central and
northern states.
The Vulcan storm period central on
the 5th and covering the Sd to the Sth,
will bring decided change to the warm
er and eliminate about the 9th, 9TH and
8th in many active thunder storms and
heavy local hail storms. The Moon is
on the celestial equator on the 9th and
at her new on the Sth, which facts will
tend to cause higher temperatures and
electrical storms. The state of the bar
ometer at the crisis of this period, as
we'll as others at this season, should be
carefully noted, and its warnings heed
ed. A rapid change to much colder
may be expected behind these storms,
with high barometer and more frosty
nights in many sections.
On and about the 18th and 18th, the
regular swing of the elements to re-.
newed storm conditions will be natural.
Tie moon will approach the earth on
the 10th, fact, we-are satisfied, which
will help to increase atmospheric unrest,
and excite the normal tendency to April
showers into wider and more decided
! storms through the 18th and 18th. 1t
may also be seen ny The stetnl diagram
I that Mercury distGibance will reach

\ Ances about the 18th and 18th. "A
change to cooler will follow these storms
bat will be of very short duration.
l The Vulcan storm period central OF
the 10Th is almost exactly coinciden,
with the center of the Mercury period
with Moon at quadrature with Earth
and Sun on the 18th, and on the celes
tial equator OF the 10th. Summing W
these conditions, we predict that activ,
and possibly dangerous storms will visi
many sections from Wednesday, tn
10th, to about Saturday, the 10th.
The elimination of the Mercury dis
turbances will fall about the date Of tn
full Moon. Therefore expect at the re
dictionary storm period central on tn
22d and 23d, some general and wicke'
storms of rain, hail, wind and thunder

RELEASE ON BAIL
HELD TO BE GOOD

Nothing further is now likely to be
done in the Smith contempt case until
the Supreme Court meets Monday,
April 2lst, at which time will be heard
the application for discharge upon
writ of habeas corpus. Chief Justice
Frear decided Saturday that the re-
lease on bail upon the order previous
ly made by him was valid, and there
the mCtter stands. Though Judge
Gear threatened High Sheriff Brown
with contempt proceedings for releas-
ing MIR. Smith, 1t is generally agreed
that this was simply case OF blum
| upon his and Humphreys part, and
that the matter will now be allowed
to rest until'regularly called up in the
Supreme Court.
Judge Robinson stated last evening
that nothing had been done since the
decision of Chief Justice Frear, and he
said further that he did not believe
any further action would be taken, at
| least. not In SO far as he was concern

that had come to his aged mother and

make a long and happy life, but God
often disposed otherwise. Few could
tell the depth of the sorrow of the de-

world could not console the young
wife and aged mother; no tongue could
counsel them in their grief; there was
only One in whom they could find con-

High Sheriff Brown has not been
served with any notice to appear be-
for the Circuit Court for the execution
of the order of the Chief Justice, and
despite the threats of Humphreys and
Gear that if the writ was not dissolv-
ed, further action would be taken by
them, il is not believed that they will
attempt to carry out their program.
ANY action on their part which would
seek to interfere with the execution of
an order by the Supreme Court would
probably result in citation for the
circuit judges to appear before the
Chief Justice to show cause for con-
tempt, as the case has now passed from
the jurisdiction of the lower court, and
is in the Supreme Court.

action was to have been taken, IT

taken by the Chief Justice in regard

he had been politely informed that the
order in the case would not be cha~S :
