STIRRING OF YOUNG MANHOOD
Fathers Idea of Teaching Little Son
Lesson Didn't Seem to Turn
Out Just Right.

The little three-year-old son of a
proud North side father and mother
became so greatly interested in a pho.
nograDh belonging TO one OF the neigh
boris that he quite forgot to go home
at lis accustomed bedtime.
Tell you what Wen do. said his
father to lis mother. Wen put out
the lights and pretend we've some to

He called several times before his
mother TOO kind-hearted to keep him

NOT ON SECURE FOUNDATION
Engineer Explains Why Some Build
lngs Shake When Particularly
Heavy Wagon Goes BY.

"What makes building shake as II
it had the ague every time truck
with twenty-ton girder rumbles by"
an engineer was asked.
"Only the buildings whose founda-
tions do not so down to bed rock
shake" he replied. "The occupants
of the building that rests on rock
never know when a heavy load passes
it. The man in the building whose
foundations go down just a few feet
below the cellar floor, and stop in
the subsoil often imagines he is in
the center Of an earthquake.
when the wagon bearing the beam
goes travelling along it bumps over
the inequalities of the street with ire
mendous force, and this imparts wave
motions to the soil, which in turn
transfer the vibrations to the old
style foundations, which sway and
shake and tremble The foundations
whose piers rest on bed rock are not
affected. A twenty-ton beam, as 1t
slips from one paving stone to an
other. imparts a force to the ground
that may be likened to a constant
bombardment, but because the wave
of motion proceeds in constantly
widening circles, and hence in con-
stantly diminishing force. distributed
all over the foundation, no harm re-
suits. If the force We're all driven at
one point the effect would be like
that of a projectile from q battle
ship"

Clever Birds.

Record has recently been made of a
canary bird that displays almost hui
man intelligence. The bird in Ques-
ton acts as guard over a sleeping
child, singing shrilly at any sign Of
danger The bird is allowed the free
dom OF the house and never shows
any desire to escape into the free air.
At night ii will perch itself on the
babys cradle and such seems to be
its liking for the child that if anyone
approaches to disturb its slumber, it
shows spirited signs of its displeasure.
a man in London prizes a parrot
for its intelligence. The bird is as
valuable about the mans house as
any patent burglar alarm he could
buy. The parrot is always on guard.
If anyone approaches the house, the
bird sets up such p commouon that

fore the public from that undeserved
defeat brought about by prejudice
and money. That vindication is now
my reward.
To have accepted this generous
acknowledgment from them and at
the same time bluntly refused the
request with which it was coupled
would have been an ungracious act,
entirely foreign to my nature.
l told them I would not enter the
race unless my home people were
back of me. The time was short. /
knew there was bitter contest on
in Augusta over the mayoralty.
Friends of mine who were in a posi-
ton to know the situation under or
binary circumstances, assured me
that l would not encounter any seri-
Gus opposition from either side, but
that both would acquiesce in my
candidacy.
My announcement card contained
the statement that | entered the
race with practically solid support
from my home people of Richmond
County,
Richmond County Divided.
Now, [ want to be perfectly candid
and say that in this assurance I was
mistaken. Ny home people are di-
vided, though I cannot doubt that
majority of them are with me now
and would be on election day; but
that is not the sort of prompt moral
support which had hoped to receive
from my home people-and this
lack of unanimity has been assidi-
ously used against me elsewhere.
1t is needless for me to go into
details as to the causes of this divi-
sion at home. Suffice it to say that,
except in rare Instances, the opposi-
ton was not personal to me.
The day I consented to become a
candidate, Mr.. Hardwick announced
through the press that his fight was
to be, not against me, but against
Mr.. Watson, who, in a speech at

for: a
TO the people Of the Tenth Congress
sional District:
About two weeks ago a delegation
OF some eighteen or twenty gentle
men, representing five or six of the
country counties, invaded the peace
ful contentment of my private life
by calling upon me at my law office
and asking me to become a candi-
date for Congress in the primary of
August 21st. If that had been all,
i could easily have declined.
But they based their request on
the grounds that they and the peo-
pie whom they represented wanted
an opportunity to right the wrong
they did me ten years ago, when, by
their votes, they cut short my pub
lie career in Congress, where I was

more effective by the use of cam

trict or State.

that the angels in Heaven must have
looked down with holy Joy"
Knitted to Hurt Watson.
When / consented to become a.
candidate for Congress could not at
first believe the rumor that my
Catholic friends whose cause I had
championed would be willing to
knife me in order to hurt Mr.. Wat
son. But in that belief l find I have
been mistaken, as the main body OF
that vote is reported to be solid
against me; and it is that influence
which accounts chiefly for the oppo-
sition which has sprung up against
me. Z,
1t seemed hard to me that a man
with my public record in favor of re-
ligious liberation should be sacri-
feed by the intolerance of the people
whose cause I had championed. Why
should the sins, real or supposed, OF
another man be visited upon me?
Some shrewd practical friends of
mine pointed out to me that this
Catholic opposition on account of
Mr.. Watson's support could be
turned to my advantage, inasmucIl
c"0 CAAO OcbCA4O4AS VIVID Au11US1CO OulH
about 600 in the county and the non~
Catholic votes numbered about A.
600. But I declined to act on that
suggestion. No issue on that line
shall be forced by me~for any per-
sOnal political advantage. I am not
willing to add anything to the dis
cord already existing in Augusta on
that subject. A seat in Congress is
not worth that price to me, even il
there were no other difficulty in the
way.
I would not be understood as COM
planning about the attitude of my
Catholic friends, for l still esteem
them as friends. I know they felt,
great provocation. l am simply
down in their hearts, that they had
stating a plain truth as an existing
factor in the political situation.
Money is Being Used.
There is another matter that has
caused me much concern, and that is
the use Of money in this political
contest. Every day I find increas-
ing evidence that the campaign
against me is being run on a COM
mercial and financial basis far be-
yond the capacity of my purse: i'm
disregard of the law and the rules
of the district committee, and con-
trary to the standards of civic con.
duct which | set up for myself in
early life and to which l have adj
