Bisi. \, Duncan and Tobacco.

AT the Monday morning session of the
North Georgia Conference Bishop w. w.
Duncan, during his address to the Metho-
dist ministers, took occasion to say
something on the question of chewing
and smoking tobacco by the members of
the clergy.
1T is mono Of my business If you want
to chew tobacco or smoke it," said
Bishop Duncan, s'but must protest
against Methodist preachers standing
before church doors and splitting all over
creation and going into homes and defl-
ing floors and running lace curtains, 1
am not preaching against using tobacco,
that is mono of my business, but it is my
business where you use it. You may
cover yourself in tobacco smoking If you
will, but you must not blow your smoke
in my face"
The bishop did not say it was sin for
preachers to use tobacco, but strongly
intimated that it was best for them to
abstain. He spoke of preachers getting
iuto debt 80 as to embarrass them in pas
ioral visiting and all the duties of a
NJ cthodist preacher

There was some objection to the 25
per cent reduction, and Is per cent was
suggested, on the l'-""rd that there we're
not enough delega esent to pledge
themselves for tho Oh ..e State.
Col. Alfred Aldrioh, in the course of

SOME ART FREAKS
IN THE CAPITOL

The Governors room, the executive
chamber, in the capitol, formerly the
royal palace has been turned over by
the decorators to the territorial au-
thorfties and a vast Improvement in
it's appearance is to be observed. The
room was formerly the queens boudOir
and its wallis were, once upon a time,
unlimited. Now they are of a robins
egg blue and the ceiling is relieved
with occasional gliding. The crowns
in the ornamental plastering are backed
in scarlet. So far the room could not
be improved but the hanging of pic
lures began this morning and the
choice of portraits that are to adorn the
chamber is curious to say the least of
it. Oil portraits, crayons and photo
graphs all have places on the walls in
a manner that would cause the sensi-
tive soul to shrek. The old oil paint
ing of Kamehameha 1 is a historical
relic which properly has a place in the
room and the portrait of Kekauluohi,
the mother of Lunalilo, is a fine piece
of work which also has a claim to dis
tinction. The oval framed picture of
Kamehameha " is a fine specimen Of
the painters art as is that of Queen
Emma but the crayOn portrait of King
Kalakaua which has been given the
place of honor at the head of the room
and the equally tawdrY photo of Gov
ernor Dole are quite out of keeping
with the decorations of the chamber.
A prettily framed photo of Princess
Kaiulani looks verv well but a large
crayon of Princess Iikelike which has
been hung has no artistic merit. The
large gaudily framed mirrors have been
removed and the carved sideboard
which formerly stood at the head of the
main staircase has been placed in the
chamber There are any number of
portraits about the building which
have historical interest as well aus ar
tistfc claims and these will doubtless be
placed in the executive chamber.
Meanwhile the fine painting of Ma
poleon III which was presented by that
unhappy and unlucky monarch years
ago occupies a place in the junk room
and the splendid porcelain bust of the
Empress Eugene is now in the outer
office so that the thoughtless may hang
their hats on the once imperial head.

greatest satisfaction over the extension
of this privilege as the inspectors have
to report twice a day at the department
and, as there is no appropriation for the
payment of car-fare, considerable hard
ship has been worked on the men as
well as there being a waste of time
which might be given to their duties.
