BULLS EDGE OF COMPLIMENT
But Amateur Musician Bravely Re
Trained From Making Explanation
to Young Lady.

Every evening for three weeks twin
brothers had been practicing for an
amateur band concert. One twin,
Joseph, played cornet, and the other,
Joel, operated on the violin. Meeting
young woman, Joseph asked her if
she would attend the musical feast.
yes" she said, land I think it will
be very nice indeed. I've heard you
and your brother practicing. That
symphony of yours last night on the
cornet was exquisite"
Unfortunately the keen edge OF this
compliment was dulled, because Jo-
seph recalled that he had not played
a cornet on the previous night. He
had practiced on a trombone, but
bravely refrained from making an ex-
PLANTATION
And there was another piece that
caught my fancy" the young lady con-
tinued. 1T seemed like a Wagnerian
extract. Do you also play saxo-
phone?"
No, miss" was the amateurs adj
mission.
Il wonder what was the other instru-
ment heard last night?"
4 can't say positively, but If it
was about nine o'clock, / think broth
er Joel was either putting q new
string on his violin or tuning the old
piano."

Estimating power Of Sea.

The live power of furious sea Is
estimated by multiplying the mass of
the surge by the square of its speed.
When the surf, impelled by the drive
OF the broad sea, meets solid OBJ
stacle, its pressure Is thirty tons per
square meter of water. This estimate,
which is close, explains how water,
when continually sapping the foot of
a cliff, breaks down the land, forces
back the shore line, and little by lit
tie, constantly and surely, increases
the seas domain. A wave from SO to
IS feet high, and 625 feet long such
a wave as the sea produces every 10
seconds-represents power of about
1850 H. -steam-per square yard.

Individual commissions for the 1000

These commissions. which filled two
mail sacks, were forwarded for distribu-
ton to the various county ordinaries
Saturday morning by A. Hardy Ulm.
executive secretary to the governor.
In order to avoid any possible con-
fusion. the commissions were all mailed
at one time. The filling in of the
blanks and preparation of incidental
records has been a Herculean task COW
ering a period of two weeks Miss
Eleanor Norris, the recording secretary
of the executive offices, personally pre-
pared the commissions and they are
marvels of neatness.
All Of the county officers are required
by law to file their bonds with the
comptroller general by Jan. /. The law
pertaining to the bonds Of tax collec-
tors and tax receivers authorizes the
governor to vacate the offices Of such
of these county officials who have not
filed their bonds by the date required.
Tax collectors and tax receivers must
make bonds, one to the ordinary COW
ering their responsibility to the county
which they serve, and one to the comp
troller general for the protection of the

hands.

ernor some time next week.

II this state OF things prevails all
over the cotton states. cotton is selling
too low at the present. Perhaps our
farmers feel Obliged TO pay their obli-

me that they are pushing their cottOnI
on the market too rapidly. This year
has been a phenomenal one from the
start. The rains were so continuous
