Mr.. HARPER CANDIDATE
FOR The JUDGESHIP

AS forecasted by The Times-Recor-
der, Mr.. William NJ Harper is an
avowed candidate for the judgeship of
the City Court of Americas, his for
NAL announcement appearing this
morning. This fact will cause pleas
urable interest among the many
friends of Mr.. Harper who will cor
daily support his candidacy.
For many years practitioner at
the Americas bar and regarded as
one of the ablest lawyers here, MT
Harper requires no introduction or
words of commentator. After being
admitted to the bar before Judge j. H.
Lumpkin, of the Atlanta circuit, after
wards associate justice of the Su
preme court, Mr.. Harper further ia
miliarized himself with the law as
Supreme court clerk during a period
of five years, wherein he attained eX-
cellent knowledge of legal procedure
in the preparation of cases in that
tribunal.
Since coming to Americas a dozen
years ago he has been accorded verg
liberal practice, and both professional
ly and socially stands in the front
rank. He is well equipped for the du.
ties he would assume, and would wor-
thily wear the ermine as judge of the
City Court of Americas.

The Snake
Habit

If Turley Mathers had not had an
attractive personality he never would
have lasted as a figure in society, be-
cause the most amiable of hostesses
might be pardoned for disappearing a
caller who insisted on skinning snakes
on her front porch and demanding ad-
n,iration for their lines and colors.
The year he spent the summer at
Wigwam lake is still recalled solemnly
as a landmark by the cottagers. All
the children were going around drag
ging snakes after them because Tur-
ley had taught them how to catch and
hold the creeping things safely, and
more mothers went into Mysteries that
year than had in the century preceding.
The worst of it was that Mathers
was person of scientific attachments
ard had a perfectly valid excuse for
studying snakes. Nobody could say
he did it to be unique or troublesome.
If you feebly said that you weren't
crazy about snakes Mathers simply
drew a long breath, fixed you with
plying stern glance and lectured to
you on your sins. When he had fin
ished you were in such fiabby state
that you would have let a snake perch
on your forefnger
Mathers met Clara Baysworth out
west when her party and his combined
for camping trip through a noted
canyon, and the acquaintance pro-
crossed at the rate of ten miles a min
ute until the fatal moment when the
stage coach driver silently pointed
with his whip to the side of the sun
baked road. There, lazily stretched
out, lay a rattlesnake. Mathers says
it was mere baby snake of foot
and a half or so, but If you had in
CURED of the others any of them
would have told you it was a horrible
monster six feet long, with cerise eyes
aud foaming mouth.
Before any one realized what he
was doing, Mathers, with gurgle of
pleasure, had slipped to the ground,
swept the snake into a heap with his
straw hat, deftly grabbed it around
it's neck with three fingers and held
1t up to be admired. Persons who do
the unusual are instantly pronounced
crazy by everybody else, SO the con-
vicition instantly settled upon the
stageload of travellers that any man
| who would deliberately pick up a rat
tier must be insane. Clara Baysworth
got her voice first. as Mathers, still
holding his prize, started to climb
back to his seat by her side.
Go away" she got out in q
strangled voice. eff you come any
nearer I'll stick hatpins into you!"
The distracted coachload echoed her
cries. Fathers clasped their sons to
them and glared at Mathers, women
shrunk into corners and fixed him
with imploring eyes. Clara frowned
at him, pale and desperate
'Wny--" Mathers began soothinsly,
and put one foot upon the hub of the
wheel But series a shrieks arose
from his victims.
I'll hate you!" Clara Baysworth
told him wildly.
Hes a perfect beauty" Mathers
announced firmly, land / want him for
specimen" Then he shrugged his
shoulders. ooh, WELL" he said, Il
suppose l can strangle the little beg.
CARL"
His fingers frightened their clasp
around the scaly neck and presently
the rattler hung limp. Putting him IN

a convenient box and slowing the box
coach, but the atmosphere was
strained.
For twenty miles he tried to reform
Clara Baysworth. He told her frank
~ that he was panied and displeased
by her foolish prejudice, but even that
did not move her. She regarded him
with alien eyes.
'T1l listen to you" she said, when
you stop being so perfectly foolish
And If you ask me again to marry you
while you are carrying that thing
around with you I'm scream!"
