Urge Him~to Accept Place on
the Bench of Georgias High

Judge Joseph w. Bennett, the we'll
known Brunswick jurist and able at
aorney, was yesterday morning ap-
pointed to the vacancy existing on
the supreme court bench, due to the
death OF Justice Lumpkin, which oc-
Cured last Saturday.
The announcement of the appoint
ment OF Judge Bennett, which came
direct from the governors office by
telephone message, was most agree
able surprise to the people OF Bruins
wick generally. 1t was we'll known
that he had not APPLIED for the position
and while it is true that his name had
been mentioned in connection there
with, it was not thought that the
governor really intended to make him
the. appointee. "a.
AS soon as the news became cur
rent Judge Bennett was given an ova-
ton by members of the bar and his
friends generally, a great majority Of
them urging him to accept the distin-
guished honor, so truly and absolutely
unSought.
Howeer, the judge advised thee gov
ernor that he would consider the mat
ter and advise him at o'clock as to
his conclusions. In the meantime
Judge Bennett conferred with num-
Der of his closest friends and finally
concluded not to accept the call.
AT the above stated hour he filed the
following telegram:
Hon. Joseph M. Terrell,
Governor of Georgia,

honor OF the rendered appointment

kin, and after fully considering the
same, regret extremely that | am

peratively require me to decline the
tenedered honor. thank you sincerely
Many Congratulations.
During the afternoon, after it had be-
come known over the state that Judge
Bennet had been appointed to the
position. he was beseiged with tele-
grams, bringing messages of congratu-
lations. Among the large number re-
ceiyed were the followns:

teacher has a class Of dozen small
boys, ranging in their ages from to
8 years. Not long ago the lesson was
from the twenty-second chapter of
Genesis, upon the temptation Of Abra-
ham to offer Isaac for sacrifice. The
teacher told them In as simple Ian
guage as possible the story Of the go
ing into the mountain and the prepara-
ton for the sacrifice, and when all was
ready she explained that Abraham saw
a kid caught In the bushes and took
that and killed 1t.

moment when she had finished and
when one little lad gasped, with eyes

WHAT GERMANY IS AFTER
EngIishmen Think Kaiser's Plan Is to
Excel in Sea Strength.

EngIishme Think Kaiser's Plan Is to
Excel in Sea Strength.
The idea prevails In the United
States that Germany's present activity
in increasing her naval strength has
some relation to what are alleged by
some to be her designs on South Amer
lea. But some Englishmen explain
Germany's action in a very different
way, representing that it her purpose
to rival or surpass Great Britain in
sea power. Karl Blind, in the North
American Review, endeavors to ex-
plain "Why Germany Strengthens Her
Navy" Prof. Blind points out that
Germany is geographically wedged In
between two great military and naval
powers, which are now in close al
lance, and that it might be necessary
for Germany in conceivable circum-
stances to fight a defensive war on
two fronts, east and west. In such a
case it might be of extreme importance
to her to have command of the sea
upon her own shores.
At the beginning Of the last war
with France, when France dominated
the sea, Germany had to detach 160,-
600 men for the defense of her coasts
and harbors; and the German army
and population would run enormous
risks, in reference to provisioning, If,
in any future war, the North sea, into
whose vast corner bay a mass Of i'm
ports converges, were not properly pro-
tected by a strong naval force. Prof.
Blind negatives the idea that the naval
aspirations of Germany are of recent,
or of royal or imperial, origin. One
Of the purposes that were closest to
the hearts of the liberals in 1S48-49
was the restoration Of the German
power on the sea. Prof. Blind says:
"As to the feeling of the nation at
large, it may be taken for certain that,
If a plebiscite in the Swiss style had
been or were now taken, the verdict
would have been and would now be
in favor of proper naval preparations
against the increasing contingency OF
risks, even though an additional bur-
den of taxation had to be borne.
Though thirty-two years have passed
since the last war with France, the
lesson Of that time has not been lost
upon the German people. The readi-
ness with which military and naval
budgets are always voted in the
French chamber of deputies, generally
with scarcely any discussion, and the
great and rapid increase Of the Rus
sian and Franch fleets are for Ger
many significant monitory signs.
"Along the North sea and the Bal
tic Germany possesses good seafar-
ing population. Year by year the num-
Der of men who come from the south
to enter the navy is steadily increas-
ing. This Is true even for Alsace-
Lorraine, which now furnishes far more
volunteers for the navy than might
be expected, comparing its population
with that Of Germany as whole"

Not TN to the Par,

Except In times of war the soldier Is
pcpularly supposed to lead an idle life,
barring bit of drill. Really he must
be an actor in addition to his more
martial qualifications. How many

hours immovable, as the guards did
who watched Queen Victorias coffin?
The requisites of the brave sojer
man" appear in a story of a drill
master who was putting a raw COM
pany through the exercises Of a funer-
al service. He had them drawn up
with their arms reversed, and then he
said:
Now, I'll be the hearse."
So he marched solemnly down the

pointment she must have suffered at

The late ]. II. Shorthouse, was af-
ficted with a terrible stammer,
which he used to say was blessing
in disguise, having led him to use
the pen as his great instrument Of ex-
preston. There were times. how
ever, when the stammer almost ceased,
and he could talk on uninterruptedly.
One very striking and touching habit
grew out of the stammer. At family

prayers together, because, II an attack
Of stammering came on, her gentle
voice would carry on the thread till he
recovered, and the knowledge Of this
prevented all nervousness on his part.

DIAz AND HIS ARMY.

Most Americans II asked to tell the
strength OF the Mexican army would
voice the general opinion that 1t con-
sisted OF few thousands and OF the
irregular. nondescript sort SO common
IN Latin American states. Turn TO
some year almanac, however, and one
finds that the peace strength is 10000
that $1,000 men, trained regular sol
diers, most OF them veterans, are avail
able at fortnight's notice. and 100000
would be ready In another two weeks.
The United States Is supposed to have
no more than $1,000 men at command.
The military strength Of the army OF
any nation Is not to be judged by the
mere count OF a few thousands one
way or the other, but by Its condition
Of 'ftness." as the English say, and
in this light the facts concerning Gen.
Porfrio DiaE's very capable military
support are worth knowing.
The Importance OF this, In the light
OF the attitude OF the Mexican govern
ment to the Monroe doctrine. Is not TO
be too highly estimated Were the
United States called upon some morn
ing to make the long-expected stand OF
force In defense of that doctrine the
strongest support which II would get
in North or South America would come
from the republic beyond the Rio
Grande, which has been taking strides
to the fore as a power In the last ten
years. President Dian. In his message
to Congress six years ago. pledged
himself and ministry to the unQuali-
ied support OF the policy that forbade
further territorial aggression by Old
World powers In western continents.
1t Is long look to the fore to behold
In Canada, British Honduras. Guiana,
Jamaica. etc. sovereign states, but
that so great a man as Porfrio DiaE
should look for this gives an ade-
Quate conception of his attitude In
case the Monroe doctrine was tested.
Should 1t ever be. that hard-riding,
straIght-shooting and fearless corps,

admiration OF the world. How much
1t behooves those most interested In
this country's welfare to take these
things into account.-Denyer Republi-
