Judge George +. Lawton of the Mid

the other day of an American minister
who was spending his sabbatical year
travelling abroad. Arriving I'm London.
he made every effort to get an intimate
view Of the two branches of parliament
in session. OF course no stranger is al
lowed on the floor Of the house Of lords.
but the minister, not knowing this. and
with the usual amount of American
push, tried TO make his way in. There
is rule, however, that servants of the
various lords may be admitted to SNEAK
to their masters. Seeing the minister
walking boldly in, the doOrkeeper. asked.
What lord do you server"
What lord?' repeated the astonished
American. THE Lord jehovah
For moment the dOorkeeper hest
tated and then admitted him. Turning
to an assistant standing near, ne said
He must mean one of those poor

whose names are not known. 1t is sup
posed that the murder was the result of
an attempt to secure d large sum of

Christie home.
The murder was discovered when John
T. Roynac, the father of the farm hand
who was slain, went to TT Christie
home to visit his son.
Mr. Christie. who was ses-- old.

in the northwest, was milking a COW i'm

persons shot him dead.
The murderers hurried to the house,
and finding Mrs. Christ and her
daughter and the Roynac boy prepared
to fight them, began firing. The first
shots took effect, and the two women
and the boy fell dead.
1t is supposed the men who commit
ted the crime were acquainted with the
Christie family. Few persons knew
that Christie kept large sums of money

 Since we became old enough to take notice, the ground hog has had some, space in most of the papers about the first days of February, but we con- fess that never at any time have we seen a ground hog, and that's pretty good evidence that he didn't tnhabit the woods where we found the coons. possums. the squirrels, the rabbits, the through the list of such things as . boy hunts when he is coming up, If he's apt and we as boy. were mlShty handy at most all these things. IT, while twisting rabbit out or nol- low sweet gum. we had pulled out ground hog instead. we hardly know what would have been the result.
 The people who write the books we refer to when hunting up disputed as a ground hog, but at the same time state that this specie inhabits the northern and western states, ana IS found in Mary1and' in places, ana that this section of. Alabama was con- sidered good when It. came to pro. ducing hogs. and we knew, too, that we had nearly all the varieties. How ever, we offer a liberal reward for a ground hog. with evidence sufficient to prove his identity. We will build him a place to spend the winter, and Watch him about this time of the year, to see if he comes out and looks for his shadow and if he does, he is entitled to some consideration. -

Because Representative sims. of tennessee. declared that his opposition to an appropriation to buy automo- bIIes for the President was not "chin- quapin economy. all the amateur phiiologists have been seizing diction- aries ana running hither and thither. Some of them actually did not know what echinquapin" meant Any Ala bama school boy could have told them. Yet they are disputing in column and haK column editorials on word that Is as common in the South as the word .chestnut." One enterprising feIlow in the North has discovered that "chinquapin" is . species of dwarf chestnut, indigenous to the Southern States" He certainly ought to have the prize. But he need not have gone to the book to have found his information.
 It has also been discovered that this word, with a slightly different spell ing was used by Captain John smith to designate small fish that was caught. baked and eaten by the In- iians of Virginia. This far South there are no fish that travel under the name of "chinquapin." but the iit- tie nut is held far and near in the greatest esteem. The boy who has never played hockey from school in the fall to go "chinouapin hunting" in the brown woods has never lived life at its fullest. The men who wrote "over the walnuts and the Wine would have been inspired to ioftier flights if he had ever sat about an open Southern fireplace. eating chest- nuts and chinquapins through the long winter evenings. The chinquapin has been an institution in the South for immemorial years.
 And yet there Is disquieting re- port that the trees are not so mum erous and the nuts not near so com mon as they were some years ago. Let us hope in the interest of posterity that the report is false.

Beauty At The Ball.

New fork sun. ss.4
 Now that Congress has delivered up the Pension Building at Washington to the citizens committee in charge of the inaugural ball, and thereby re- moved the last lingering doubt as to frugal and public spirited persons are coming to the front with novel schemes and ecstatic suggestions. About one of these in particular the hopes and heartburnings of the whole nation are gathering with especial fervor.
 We refer to the proposed selection from each state of some one gentleman who shall be of the wealthiest, hand- somest and most elegant in the local ton of these forty-six eclectics Into a corps jelite which shall be duly ex- hibited and paraded before the bulging eyeballs of the ticket buyers.
 of the fury with which thls idea is now ravaging all Washington. Any one can see with half an eye that the contemplated pageant will be the real ter Of fact. If the arrangement be finally perfected the new President can go to bed and few need be the wiser. State pride will be famed into a flame. Extra thousands will be curtain rises on the ball there will be little fervor left from that which is concentrated On the farandole. Forty six authenticated beauties, represent ing as many proud and incorruptibie were, miracles of grace and marvels of seduction-wlth Bull Andrews and Mark Smith trailing for the territorles they will prance before the multi tudes like the coruscations of q dream and pants and signs and gasps will swell the music of their march.
 Away with the dastard thought that there may be contests and ciashings in that the Senators have been. invited to make the nominations. but we know also that lovely woman has burst into the arena and we easily foresee the upshot. The ticket h.l, buyers regards this state, for instance, there are rumors of intrigue. The Hon. Timothy woodruff. sometime candi- date for Senator, has been pttted Secretary of the Senate at washing ton. Both are radiant things; both dwell in the Jizziest realms of pulchri- tude. But Tim will be chosen In the end. Why spit and snarl? @ And ..,so so versa, of the list. Newlands will be the eventual, in fact the inevitable, choice of Nevada: Guggenheim of Colo rado, Bonaparte. of Maryland, and SO make an aureole for Illinois and the Hon. William A. Clark to nurse Mon tana in the boskage of his whiskers. and a few other arrangements that are too obvious for labored mention. the procession will be constituted just as it ought to be, and the ticket buyers for once will get the full worth of their money.
 We are beginning to take real inter est in this Transportation Ball. It holds ont glowing hands of promise.
