MaryIand's Bar.

A good story is being told in Annap-
oils, says the Baltimore Sun, at the
expense of the members of the State
Bar Association. The arrival of so
many guests about Carvel Hall aroused
the curiosity of the inhabitants.
What's going on here?" asked a ma
tive of a colored waiter.
With a knowing air, the negro re-
piled quickly:
There's gwine to be a meetin of the
barkeepers of Maryland"
Are you sure of that?" he was
asked.
Certainly 1 am. Amt l afixin' the
tables for all them now? They ought
to be a good crowd for money; you
know, they made it easy and they
ought to let it go loose. They are the
slickest lookin crowd ever seen down
here. They beat the members of the
Legislature all to pieces he contin-
ued.
While the waiter man was thus de-
livering himself one of the judges OF
the Court of Appeals was standing a
short distance away conversing with
several lawyers. The colored man
caught sight of them, and, turning to
his questioner. said: THAT big man
there, I bet. is a barkeeper in one OF
the big hotels. He is the slickest and
latest man of them ALL"

Was Not Her Husband.

While strolling one afternoon on the
deck of a steamer a certain bishop OBJ
served a couple of particularly. seasick
individuals, relates the London Daily
Mail. The woman was reclining in a
big steamer chair and exhibited all
the signs of that utter despair and in
difference to life common to such suf-
ferers. At her feet crouched a man,
apparently just as ill as the lady her
self.
His head was in the woman's lap.
The unhappy couple presented such a
woebegone appearance that the good
bishop inquired whether he could rem
der her any assistance.
The lady shook her head sadly, muir
muring mo. thank you"
Il am sorry" added the bishop.
Then, after a moments pause he ask
ed: Then perhaps l can be of service
to your husband"
The wretched woman, without SO
much as moving her head, gave an in
different glance in the direction of the
man whose head was in her lap, and in
a tone that betrayed not the least in
terest in her unfortunate colleague in
misery, she replied family, "He isn't
my husband. II don't know who
who he is"

She strummed a few bars while he

teen minutes they had between them

MoRMoNs IN MACON.

Are the Mormon elders who are seek
ing converts in Macon meeting with
success? We assume they are for two
reasons. One is they are making such
a long stay there, and the other is the
violence with which they are denounced
by members Of the local clergy.
The mobbing of Mormon mission
aries is of frequent occurrence. Even
in staid New England they are treated
roughly when their presence becomes
unWelcome.
1t would be unWise to make them the
victims of violence of any kind. Moth
ing pleases them better than to be Of
tackled from the pulpit and in the news
papers, because the attacks call atten-
ton to them and enable them to pose
as martyrs.
That they are able to make converts
is remarkable. 1t used to be said their
converts came wholly from the ignOr-
ant class and that saying is now true
to certain extent but it is fact that
a good many fairly well informed peo-
pie are picked up by the Jealous work
ers for the Church of the Latter-day
Saints. Some time ago it was stated
that there were so many converts to
Mormonism in New York city it
had been determined to build a church
there.
Women are the easiest to convert,
and there are reasons for saying that
about all of them who migrate to Utah
regret the day when they forsook the
religion of their fathers for that of
Brigham Young and Joseph Smith.
Some of the Macon ministers are do
ing what they can to warn the unwary
of that city against the smooth-tongued
missionaries who present such plausible
reasons for becoming members of their
church. 1t is not probable that the
Mormon elders will be asked to leave
Macon, but no effort will be spared by
enthusiastic anti Mormons to put the
people on their guard.
