Explanations in order.

The Savannah Morning News and the
Charleston News and Courier, both veneer
able and watchful organs of correct pub
licity. are jointly and severally disturbed
about the dispatches sent out concerning
the recent assault upon the person Of
Col John Temple Graves. editor Of the
esteemed Atlanta Georgian.
In the report received by both papers,
Col Graves is alleged to have been
violently struck on a prominent corner"
the blow being vicious. unexpected, and
dealt in malice. While deprecating, en-
phaticaliy. any sort Of attack upon Col
Graves. as. naturally. all papers of stand
ing and good repute must have done, We
admit falling into an even more curious
attitude than that occupied by our two
mystifed contemporaries. To make the
matter still more puzzling. another report
said the colonel was attacked upon a
busy square Had the Savannah and
the Charleston papers noted that. they
would have been sull more dumfounded
and qusered.
The highly Illuminating question as 10
the plural Of grapefruit must now give
way TO Where was the editor Of the
Atlanta Georgian hit?" A careful reading
of one press report has it that he was
"hit in the aelee.' but. of course. this
could not have been the case, as there
appears to have been no melee. 1t was
just sudden and strenuous onslaught,
not unlike a 0olt from a cloudless sky.
It is before US to decide, from the evil
dence as it appears. whether Mr.. Graves
was hit or "a prominent corner" or "a
busy square II could not have been
both, as only one blow appears TO have
been dealt him. Those who know the
Albanian may incline 10 the belief that he
was hit on a prominent corner rather
than "a busy square, because his physi-
cal makeup runs more 70 corners than
squares: but this conclusion viii not SUI
nee. for the reason that while corners
are more numerous. squares are larger.

Hrvan and the Lone bean Pod.

An item of news that ought to be of
vast concern to every American pa
triot has reached the press from Peters
burg, Ind II is that on that fateful day
hack in the abysmal past OF 90, when
William Jennings Bryan was nominated
for President. Mrs. William L0veless,
"one of his admirers, pIucked a long
bean from its stem in her garden and
hung it in her bedroom. naming it the
Bryan bean. Several days ago she no
tieed that the bean was taking on n
gfeenish appearance. When she looked
at it again she noticed that the pod had
swollen TO its original size. and the beans
within apparently had swollen. while the
pod was as green as the day on which
she had plueked # from the stem. Mrs
I0veless regards the strange circumstance
rs the certain forerunner Of the nominal
ton and election Of Bryan next year.
Mrs. Loveless' long bean pod is dea-
tined to play a big part in the history Of
her country. Stranger things than are
here related have happened in Indians,
and their portent was needed only when
it was too late for the scofers TO reient
and mend their ways Nearly eleven
years. as time is reckoned. have elapsed
since Mrs. Loveless plucked that bean
pod from its stem in her garden and hung
IL In her bedroom, naming It the Bryan
bean. Had the estinlable Mrs. Loveless
power Of Vaticination been as strong then
as il is now, the country could have been
saved from many a Earring wrsngie. and
the eminent Nebraskan could have de-
voted his marvellous energies 20 other
and mayhap pleasanter pursuits. Mrs.
Ioveless' long bean pod must have with
cred and shriveled in due time after she
hung it in her bedroom. Its fresh green
must have faded into sickly saffron tiuge
and finally have disappeared into a for
lorn and hopeless brown. These changes
ought to have admonished the prophecies.
They should have taught her that the
fates We're not then smiling upon Bryan.
