Phitt'H men tried to get Hanna's men to eommit their chief to tip np port of Governor Odell hb Mr Mrkiiiley'n 8ueeesor, but that was further than the HaunaiteH were willing togo. Thev agreeil that no other New Yoik men would be put forward by Hanna as a eau- lidate for the PreHideatial nomination, and that if Mr. Roosevelt eould not be kept ont of the nomination in any otfiei way than by nomina ting Odel,. II unua w o 11 1 d throw his influence f him. jyieanwhile, Piatt's men are to boom Odell and insiat that he will have thesolid support of the New York deign t ion to the National Convention and that the name of no other N-w York Candidate will be presented. The gnwie is not to openly fis;ht Teddy, but simply to ignore his Candida cy and nndwmine whatever strength he may develop else where, bv making it apparent that he is not seriously con sidered as a candidate in his own State. At the Piatt end of the deal they regard it as advantageous to Odell, but the Hanna men do not tak that view of it. TVy . think that they hae made a deal that will give them the help of the Piatt machine to kill Teddy at hnm, bnt no not bel eve that Odell will show enonuh strength outside of New York, to give them anv trouble when the get ready to spring the name of Hnn nn's candidnte Tbevnre all a iitfle bit afraid of the hur rah with the vounger repnbli cans associated with Han- na's nime. Captain Parker, onp of Ad miral Schley's counsel, who spent nearly all of last week searching the records of the Navy Department, and who will resume the work this week, filed a formal protest with Acting Secretary Has kett against the espionage he was subjected to while doing the work. Mr. Hask' tt'e ex planation was 1htthnaval regulations required an offi cer to be present, when a per son not connected with tfie service was allowed to exam ine the official reeoids of the department, but Capr. Park er did not think that the na val regulations required an officer to be on eacn side of hira. making note of every thing be copied from the rec ords, as was actually the case. The truth of the matter if) 1 hat t he clique which has bceii hounding A d in i r a 1 Schley ever since the begin ning J)f the war with Spain are thoroughly frightened they know that the country will not stand for such meth ods as they have been guilty of in thir efforts to disgrace Admiral Schlev, and fear the exposure that will be brought about by the evidence before th Court of Inquiry, unless stubborn facts can he jug gled out of that evidence. Capt. Parker has discovered several important facts in the official records, which sup port Admiral Schley's inten tions concerning his move ments, while in command of the Flying squadron which was searching for the Span ish fleet, itid he expects to find more. - If Mr. John R. Garrison, Auditor of Porto Rico, who was formerly Comptroller of Cnnenev. isn't more careful in the interviews hHgiVP1 out about Porto Rica n mutters, during his present viait to Wiihhington, he may soon be hunting for a new job. Think of such admissions as the fol lowing, in an interview inten ded to shew the great and glorious things we have ac complished for Porto Rico: "The American system of government is proving more costly than that of theSpan- iardv. Thus far the influx of Allien an money has not been so rapid or prolific as was generally expected." Comptroller Traeewell. ol the treasury, whose o. k. is required befommy doubtful requisition on the Treasury can be paid, evidently does not stand in fear of the par ty bosses, as he has just ren dered a decision which breaks up a little scheme of Director Merriam, of the Census Bu reau, to put $2,500 a . ear in the pocket of a favorite, who already draws that amount through a sinecure position in the " Geological Survey. Comptroller Traeewell hasde cidl that the Act of Con irivi-s piohibiting the draw ing of j wo government sa!a ries by oie person, meant ex actlv what it savs. Some thing like a year ago, Henry Gannett, who is. on- the pay roll of the G"'rraphiYal Sur vey, for 2. ."'JO a year, was appointed G-'onrnpher of the Census, on a salary of $2,- 500 a rear, bnt he has not been allowed to draw the lat ter sala ry . Com m ihsionr M er Ham wrote to the Coptroller to know why and received an exhaustive opinion, the sub ject of which was that Mr Gannett had not Ven allow ed to d raw wa buy as h t en 8U8 official, becuuse his ap pointment wasllegal.

Being a man of 35 upon the meri dian of life, he inarched proud ly away under the stars und bars to serve his country lor what he thought was right. For four year he wore the grej', and took part in the battles of Missionary Ridge, Lookout Mountain. Dalton, Resacca and Ringgold. He was wounded in the arm on I line 10, '01, near Marieta, Ga.; was captured on June 22, '64, and placed in Camp Douglas, a Federal prison at Chicago. There he served 11 months, during which lime he had small pox and scurvy from which his health was broken down. After llie biirrender h he turned once more .towards the Carolina hills; toward a little family and sweet house hoNtiesfoi which his heart so long had yearned. In the spring of '60 hemov ed to the Western part of IVatnuga count nt that, time a back-woods country, grown bos and girls h a d never heard a gospel sermon.

Truly has Job said: "The pa t h of I he just is as a shininglight t hat shines more and more to the perfect day" And as his end grew near h said: "I am going away to the South." probably remem bering of reading of A bra in when the Lord called him in Chaldea, and he journeyed South toward the promised Canaan. And as he sank low er in the scale of life we hear him talking of the beauties cf the other side and says: "Cover my bed with rosos." Why could I not whisper in his ear some sweet message to tell some loved ones gone before? And on that beautiful, qui et July morning, after the sun had kissed the eastern hoii zon, he yielded up the ghost. We consigned his body to mother earth there to await the resurrection morn, while his sonl fled away to join the ransomed throng on the oth er side where emeralds of amaranth decorate the city of light.

I asked him if - he had tnnl Chamberlain's colic, cholera and diarrhoea remedy and he said, 'No.' I went home and brought him my bottle and gave him one dose; told him to tnke another nose in fifteen or twenty minutes if he did not find relief, but he took no more and was entire ly cured."

The posting of bills, the use of street car signs and the mulling of circulars cost infinitely more per thousand for the same amount of 'ad vertising, und it is seldom so effecti ve.
