 One Morning an energetic little Man who had about a Ton of Work piled up on his Desk came down Town with Hop. Skip and Jump, determined to clean up the whole Layout before Nightfall.
 He had taken eight hours of Slumber and a cold Souse in the Porcelain After breakfast he came out into the Spring Sunshine feeling as fit as a Fiddle and as snippy as a young Colt. |.

 When he dashed into the Office he car ried 22O pounds of Steam and was keen for the Attack
 A tall Man with tan Whlskers arose from behind the roll-top Desk and greet. ed him.
 How are you feeling this Morning?" asked the Stranger.

James K. Hackett.

James K Hackett who comes here to fill an engagement at the Jefferson The atre next Saturday in his latest and greatest success, Don Caesars Return," Is universally declared to be the most picturesque figure in the role of the im- povished Spanish nobleman. The critics everywhere agree that he makes it fas- cinating creation.
 As a fencer there is not an actor on the stage the equal of MT. Hackett. The practice of fencing was his chief recrea- tion while at college and he doesn't have to fake in using the fo lj on the stage. like so many leading actors. h. his new play written upon the foundation of the celebrated old Spanish tale, Mir. Hackett gives Don Caesar all the encounters that that hot-headed. fictitious individual might desire in his widest moments.
 The scenery properties and costumes, used in Don Caesars Return have been declared the most accurate and picture sque ever given to Spanish romantic drama It was seen on Broadway, N. Y, at Wallacks for nearly three months.
 MT. Hackett is a versatile young man, and in spite of his many duties, he Is finding time to compile life of his fath- er James Henry Hackett, who was well known actor and man whose per sonal acquaintance with prominent men of his day should make his memoirs a very interesting work. The elder Hackett was the most famous of all interpreters of the character of Falstaff

Auditorium Closed This Week.

The Auditorium Theatre closes for this week on account of the Musical Festival but opens again next week. When the contract for the house was made by Man ager R. Coley Anderson he agreed to allow two nights for the festival. It would be too great a loss of money to bring perform CTS to the Auditorium for just four days allowing them to lay off two days The doors will, however, be opened Monday, April 14 with another good bill.
 It has been rumored the Auditorium would close after the performance last night but 1t was a mistake. Manager Will Sharp said last night:
 We not only do not contemplate clos ing, but we are going to make num- Der of very important changes in the house which we expect will make it the most popular pleasure resort in the city"

THE POWER OF CHARACTER.

Margaret Stowe writes in the New
York Journal as follows;
The strength, the industry and civ
ilization Of a nation, all depend upon
individual character.
This character, which lies with each
one Of us to develop, is law and order.
is human nature in its best form.
Napoleon said: 'The moral is to the
physical as ten to one.
Our manners, our bearing, our pres
ence, tell the story ofourlives, though
we do not speak; and the influence of
every act is felt in the utmost parts of
the globe.
Have you ever known an unselfsh
person, of charitable and generous i'm
pulses, sociable, loving, kind, thought
full Of others who was not universally
liked and respected?
A man may have comparatively little
culture, not much ability, and little
wealth, yet, be his character sterling,
he will always command an influence;
a strong character creates confidence
in men in high station as well as in
humble life.
Benjamin Franklin attributed his
success in public life to his known in
tegrity Of character.
He says: "Hence it was that I had
so much weight with my fellow citi-
zens, | was a bad speaker, never elo-
quent, subject to much hesitation in
my choice Of words, hardly correct in
language, and yet [ generally carry
my point. "
A man who has mind without heart,
.cleverness without goodness no doubt
has power, but it may be power only
for mischief.
Truthfulness, integrity and goodness
form the essentials ofmanly character,
ard the man who possesses these quail
tiles, together with strength of pur-
pose, carries with him a power that is
irresistible.

MAKING A TOUR Of
SHOPS OF SYSTEM,
superintendent Sanderson in
Am6IICuS
sEAgoARD is CARRYING COAL
Through Amerious to Portsmouth to
Relieve the Situation There-AH
Roads Are Feeling the Pinch Brought
About BY Miners Strike.

Mr. R. II. Sandersop, superintend-
ent of motive power of the entire Sea-
board System, with headquarters at
Portsmouth, was in Americus yester-
day upon tour of inspection of the
company's large shops here, as well as
at other points along this great railroad
system.
Every departm ant of the shops here
was found in excellent condition, and
with an abundance of work on hand.
The Americas shops employ between
300 and $50 men in all departments.
1t is the largest shop of the Seaboard
Railway, with the possible exception
of the main shops at Portsmouth.
Accompanying Mr.. Sanderson on
his tour Of inspection is Mr.. J. E.
Cameron, an experienced railroad man
and master car builder of the road at
Portsmouth,. Mr.. Cameron talked IN
terestingly of the situation north,
brought about by the miners strike.
While the Seaboard has a supply
sufficient for the present other roads
are running from hand to hand with
hardly enough coal to supply rassen-
ger engines. The result is that all OF
them Will be compelled TO use wood
until the great strike is ended.
The Seaboard, as noted in the press
dispatches is changing many of its
coal burning engines TO wood burners
to meet the emergency.
Some Of those In the Americas shops
my thus be changed.
Quite recently number of solid
trainIoads Of coal have passed through
Americus for Portsmouth and points
on the northern end of the system,
where even wood Is not to be had The
wood supply here is abundant, and the
coal can be easily spared.
Mr.. Cameron stated that he could
not buy poucd of coal either il Nor
folk or Portsmouth for usein his home,
aud the only fuel he has DOW is four
cords of sap pine, costing him $40.
