Comforting.

A few years ago when they were
operating cable cars up and down a
steep hill in one of the New England
cities, a middle-aged lady, who had
never seen them before, entered a car
one day that contained only two other
people, seating herself as near the con-
ductor as possible, and when he had
collected her fare she spoke to him
and said:
rs this car perfectly safer
Il hope so, madam" replied the con.
ductor.
Have you ever had accidents Oh
this awful steep hill?"
WELL" replied the conductor, There
have only been a few small accidents
nothing serious"
"Where would CO." she then in
quired, IF this car should get ava!
and go sliding down this steep hill"
"Well, madam" said the conductor
''it would all depend on how you hav
lived your past life."-Philadelphii

ODD TRAIT OF MANKIND.
Human Nature Ever Prone to Get
Something for Nothing.

Human nature may be more pro-
ductively worked than a gold mine If
you know a right method
General Manager Chapman Of the
Indianapolis and Eastern Electric
Railway recently utilized his knowl-
edge Of human nature IN a novel way.
His company had a park, the soil Of
which 1t wanted to pillow up and pull
verize thoroughly at small cost, at the
same time attracting some traffic to
the park. 1t therefore buried $500 In
gold coin in various parts of the park
and threw the place open to any pa
iron Of the street cars that wished TO
dig, prescribing only that none but
small hand implements should be used.
The plan worked admirably. The
cars were thronged with amateur
miners, and by the time all the coin
was found the entire surface OF the
park had been loosened up and re
duced to powder to an extent that nj
landscape gardener ever saw equale1
The street car company got its $5O'
back in fares and at the same tint
got its park thoroughly plowed TO
nothing.
Many will tenderly recall the oil
school reader story Of the dying fathe
who called his sons to his bedside AM
Informed them that, though the OIL
farm he was about to leave them wa
worn out and had become unproduC
tive. there was buried somewher
upon 1t a great treasure, and If the

would surely find rich reward. Th
sons digged and dlgged and digge'
turning the old farm upside down IN
inside out, and, though they found L
sign Of the gold they expected, the
harvest OF grain became enormous an
their reward was richer than the
knew.

about Atlantic City, and the chances
are he will tell you as much about it
as any Jerseyman who runs down to

Jersey coast has become one OF the

city created solely to help people kill

There are bathing, yachting, boating

water sports; there are golf links, a

cry form of diversion from the ma
chine which tells your fortune, giver
your weight, and plays a merry jingle
while doing so-all for a nickel-to

Nightly the large hotels are scenes
of balls and card parties. Every hour
of the day, from the time one rises
from the breakfast table until even
the dawn OF the next morning, some
thing diverting can be found by tbs

 A street gamin in the galleries few minutes later blurted, Well, I guess" when Monsieur Beaucaire's adopted spokesman reeled off the string of titles and orders, transforming to the Bath Assembly Room Courtiers the barber into King Louis XIV.
 It was the climax of that popular comedy romance so artistically con ceived by Booth Tarkington and MT. Sutherland. The play as presented by Creston Clarke and his supporting com pany. well chosen, highly pleased the matinee and night audiences of yes terday at the Montgomery Theatre.
 Mir. Clarke no doubt feels somewhat unencumbered in such roles as that of Beaucaire This in view of his stu dious career in Shakespeare roles. whose meters he has measured suc- cessfully in the past.

The oppor- tunities are patent to all theatre-goers familiar win the romance. They do not have to be sought out by any actor taking up the role because the story Is so written that the delineations of the part make demands and it is the duty of the artist to understand the re- quirements.

MACON COUNTY OFFICERS
 ARE ARRAIGNED FOR MURDER

the Tuskeegians protest that the homi- cides were forced upon the men who fired the fatal shots. .
 The warrants against the defendants were sworn out before Justice T. F. Proctor, a former merchant. who has recently been elected to the position of magistrate.
 Judge Proctor called his court to order at 10 o'clock this morning. On account of the vast crowd he was com pelled to hold court in. the medieval temple of justice of the county or Macon.
 Over fifty witnesses had been sum moned and they were every one per sonally reported present or was said to be at "the livery stable" by some friend.
 Ready for Business.
 It was 12 o'clock before the witnesses were sworn and placed under the rule.
 Justice Proctor immediately took a recess for dinner. During this period, all Tuskegee and all Cotton Valley dis cussed the killing fin drug stores. or on street corners. There was no clash between factions though such con- tingency was not improbable during arguments. K
 Sheriff Corners appeared in court, swathed from head to foot in bandages resultant of the knife wielded by Jim Mcbride. Lamar and Taylor were ap- parently unhurt.
 Counsel in the case for the State are Ernest l.. Blue of Union Springs, A. B. Payne of Tuskegee, A. A. Carson of Columbus. Ga, and for the defense, Oscar Lewis and H. P. Merritt, of Tus- kegee.
 Court reconvened at, 2:S0 o'clock.
 Dr. J. c. Baldwin, a praeticing phy- sician of Tuskegee was the, first wit ness called. He testified simply as to the wounds of the McBrides and swore that one bullet in Jim McBryde was fired from behind.
 Willis Ray, a negro attendant of the McBryde's and the only eye witness told the story of the killing from the time the McBryde's were arrested for creat- ing a disturbance in a negress's house to the time, when Jim McBryde fell after a desperate struggle. He swore that Jim McBryde had surrendered his gun and that he and Robert McBryde had started toward their buggy. when the defendants interposed and a fierce volley was fired on the Cotton Valley men. Bob McBryde fell immediately, Jim McBryde was shot and forced to the ground and there was beaten by all of the defendants. He finally sue ceeded in rising and cursed the of- fcers for towards in jumping on him. A final shot was then fired and Jim Me Bryde again fell.
 During the taking of this testimony Sheriff Corners. Deputy Lamar and Marshal Taylor were manifestly anus ed. They laughed heartily at several of the statements and at least feigned to disregard the negro's testimony.
