IT seems strange that so many bank
ers could have been fooled by Mrs.
Chadwick and give no better explana.
ton than that they had seen a note in
her possession signed by Andrew Car
negie. As there is only one man by
that name whose signature to a note
would make il pass current everywhere
in the broad world, for half million,
or any other amount, and that is the
steel king, how did it escape the con-
alteration OF those masters q Enance
that the man who is trying to distrib-
ute his wealth before called hence, is
not in the habit OF signing notes, and
has not the slightest need to issue q
promise to pay. In fact he is more
than ready to pay every just demand
against him. He says he signed no
note, and nobody except these bankers
can be made to believe, without his
denial, that the multi.millionaire ever
gave the woman such letter of credit.

There is just as much authority for

that the nearest approach to angels
we have on earth are females, and
there is no authority for saying that
those who are superior here do not
carry their superiority into the high

ROASTED CONGREGATION
ON PROMENADE DOG" STORY.
Evangelist Regretted silence With
which Story Was Received.

Evangelist Regretted silence with
which story Was Received.
Just before the close of his sermon
at Trinity Church last night, Rev.
Lincoln Mcconnell told a story of a
lady and a dog and at the close
roasted" the audience on the way
they received the story. The follow
ms is the story as told by Mr.. Me-
Council:
"Once 1 knew a lady who owned
nice, little hairy dog. She kept the
over him, and took him with her
wherever she went. They were Just
about upon a plane in intellects and
they could appreciate each others feel
ings. Each knew enough to look nice,
to be fed, and to be taken care Of
zone day the lady and Reggie went
driving and the lady ordered the
coachman to stop in front of one of
the large stores. Then she patted Reg
gle and told him to be a good doggie
and that she would be back in lust
a minute
Now, a woman's shopping minute
is half an hour. She must have the
pleasure of hauling over 200 samples
and then buying 10 cents worth Of
goods Shopping is a pleasure denied
to dogs and men. Well, in about two
hours, she came out of the store and
patted Reggie again and told him to
wait just another minute while she
tripped across the street to another
store.
But Reggie was tired of shopping
minutes and he gave one look after
his pretty mistress, and then jumped
down off the seat and started across
the street to her. Then the accident
happened and a cruel man drove over
Reggie and crushed his little body.
There was a little yelp and then a
shrek from the lady.
Without a moments hesitation she
rushed out into the street and picked
up the poor little crushed and man.
gled body, quivering in helpless agony.
Tenderly she carried it to the curb
ing and then, regardless of the eyes
of the crowd, sat down and tried to
ease it's sufferings. She cared moth
ing that the blood was staining her
beautiful dress, nor that a crowd was
gathering about her. She saw only
the suffering, pleading eyes, felt only
the quiveriug form; and she cried
while she tried to ease it's pain. And
the last act of the little fellow was
to reach out his tongue and lick the
hand that had helped, provided and
cared for him"
The story was told in a way that
carried it straight to the hearts of
the audience, and though they had
been restless and uneasy before, a
hush fell upon them at the close. The
evangelist noticed it, and said:
How quiet you all get! I see two
young ladies who do not move now,
and there isn't a sound in the entire
church but my voice. And yet Reg
gle was just a homemade dog. /
never heard of such a thing in my
life. though it may have happened.
But you all get quiet and show that
you are touched. And yet when 1 told
you of the Christ's death, a story that
concerns your eternal happiness, you
seemed restless and uneasy"
This was the signal for a strong
plea to accept Christ, and the ex-
hortation was one of the strongest
that MIR. Mcconnell has yet given.
Numbers flocked to the altar when
the invitation was given, and many
others testified to having made a de-
cision to lead a better life.

LOOKING INTO LAWS
AFFECTING ROAD WORK.
Act May BE Passed Allowing COun-
ties to Do Joint Building.

ties to Do Joint Building.
In furtherance of the plan to secure
good roads in all of the counties ad-
joining Chatham, and, for that mat
ter good roads in all this part of the
state, Mr.. Gordon Saussy is now in
vestigating the laws of the state bear
ing on the authority of counties to
build roads in conjunction with other
counties; that is, to employ it's own
forces in another county with the I'M
Outstanding that the joint forces are,
later, to build roads in it's own juris-
diction.
If it be found that such a plan is
not now possible it is probable that
a bill will be introduced at the COM
ing session of the Legislature having
for its object the legalizing of such
methods. Every effort is going to be
made, said Mr.. Saussy. to have the
state help the counties to build and
maintain good roads, and to have the
United States help the state. Assist
ance from the United States will be
received should the Brownlow good
roads bill become an act.
AS the laws governing the use of
convicts in Georgia now stand, Mr..
Saussy explained the hire from con-
victs that are let out must 60 to the
school fund and the demands of this
fund are usually so great that the
majority of the counties lease their
convicts rather than work them on
the roads.
Referring to Col P. w. Meldrim's
suggestion, printed in yesterdays Morn
ing News, that in building public
highways they should be made to fol-
low straight course without favor
to any property owners, Mr.. Saussy
said that while this would give the
ideal road, it is impracticable because
of the physical configuration of the
country through which the road must
pass, it being often necessary to de-
viate from straight line in order to
avoid swamps, marshy land, and
streams. To build up or bridge these,
as might be demanded, would neces-
state much additional labor and cost,
he said.
Roads should be built, in the opinion
of Mr.. Saussy for the convenience
of the residents of the section through
which they are to pass. Col. ]. H.
Estill thinks that the present line
of roads should be followed where
practical, to be Strengthened where
possible, but not changed to the pre-
judice of the property that now abuts
on them.
AS has been stated before Mr.. Saus-
sy is now in communication with many
Of the most prominent residents and
property holders of the adjoining coun-
ties by whose aid he is seeking to Gre
ate an active sympathy in the cause of
good roads. HIS is also planning, later,
to visit the various county seats dur
ing the session of their respective
grand juries the members of which he
will try to enlist, also, in the plan for
the betterment of their highways.
