This not the time of the year for
the dog days, but the malignant star
called Sinus seems to be in the as
cendant. Notable men are" dying all
about and notable preachers and edi
tors are criticising them with caustic
pens, and other caustic pens are go
ing for the critics, and outsiders have
come into the fray and are bunting

outdone their charity, we will have to

Hawthorne and Candler and the
editor of The Nashville American; I
have too much regard for their friends

of such zealous men such sentinels

sorbing idea is the preservation of the
public morals.
Phannrev Detew told a exod storv
j " O I J- J
about the old spiritualist who died
and his nabors thought he ought to
have a decent christian burial, and so
they got an old village preacher to
officiate,, and he prayed at the open
grave and sung a hymn, and then
was making a lew sympathetic, re
marks about the uncertainty of life
and the duty of preparing for death,
and so foith, when suddenly the be
reaved widow, who was a spiritualist
too, rose forward and said : "Stop
stop right now, Mr. Johnson. I ve
just had a communication fiom my
deceased husband m the corhn there,
and he says you are an old fool,
and everything you Have, said is a
ie." .
The good old preacher was set
back and embarassed for a moment.
and his voice trembled and his eyes
got watery as. he said : "My friends
have been preaching the gospel lor
forty years, week in and week out
and I have helped to bury most every
man, woman and child who has died
in this settlement, but this is the first
time in all my -hie that 1 was ever
sassed by a corpse and now you
may throw m the 'dirt, lor I'm done.
Well, I don't think that a corpse is
justified in sassing the preacher, nor
should the oreacher sass the corpse,
especially when the corpse is not a
spiritualist and can t fight back. It s
pad enough to sass the living, es-
peciecially when the sassee hasent got
any newspaper, ll every man naa a
newspaper, I reckon the editors would
be more careful who they lampooned.
and it would be a good law to make
every editor give Jan open column in
his pap r lor the replies of their vic
tims. Nobody ought to sass anothen
behind fortifications, whether it be a
pulpit or an editors chair, or a law
yer's license or a petticoat. I have
heard lawyers bemean and lampoon
and scandalize parties and witnesses in
the court-room and say things, they
wouldent dare to say out of it, and it
is a wonder to me.thatthey don't get
sassed back with a stick - oftener than
they do. Many of them cross ex
amine a witness upon the presumption
that he came there to tell a lie, and
they will twist him and turn him and
make him tell one if they can, and if
they can t then they will tell a lie on
the witness in the argument of the
case.
Public sass behind these fortihea
ons is just as bad as private slander.
The bewildered countrymen feels
helpless, but he has to nurse his wrath,
and all he can do is to say. "You
just come out of the corporation lines
and I'll lick you."
I was ruminating about this when
the sad news of Justice Lamar's death
came over the wires. There was a
model man, a erentlemah, a scholar.
a nero and,withal, as lovable as a
woman. What southern man but
him could or would have pronounced
an . euiosrv on Charles bumner. an
eulogy so eloquent, so touching, that
for a time it electrified the nation, and
did much to restore peace and har
mony between the North and the
South. - He was a grand, broad man,
and breathed an atmosphere higher
and purer than most of us. The
great men-of. the nation were his
inends and admirers. 1 suppose
there is no question about where his
spirit is, and even the agonistics wil
say: "Yes, it there is a heaven to
which the good - spirits go, Mr.
Lafriar s is there." - No malignant
shaft will be hurled at him from press
or pulpit. - , ' :
, How much better for a man to live
that way. How much more honored
is "his memory than that of Gould
or Butler or Hayes. I know that
Georgia is proud of having given birth
and education to Justice Lamar.
Emory college is proud of being his
alma mater. . Georgia is proud of his
noble father and of his Uncle Mirabeau
Lamar, the herb of San Jacinto and
the president of Texas. She is proud
of Judge Longstreet, whose daughter 1
Justice Lamar married, and ol Judge
Longstreet's father, who was the first
inventer of propelling boats byteam
power,, and did actually have a boat
on the Savannah river before Fulton
had one on the Hudson. She is
proud of all these Lamars and all the
Longstreets, including "Old rete,
whom our vetans loved and followed
to the bitter end. '
The Lamars were of Huguenot an
cestry, - and I would ask no : nobler
pedigree than that. The 16,000
French exiles who settled in Charles
ton, and nearly as many more in
Savannah and the interior, ' gave
character to the society of those cities
that they have never lost. Character
for truth, justice, integrity, courage
and honor; what names were more
honored -in our southland than the
Bayards, Bjcots, Duprees, Duboses,
Gailiards, Hugers, Legaris, Law
rences.Marions, Manigaults, Porchers,
Ravenels and Travezants; The de
scendents ol these Huguenots now
fleck the land, and, wherever they
have intermarried, the blood and the
honor of their ancestors have main
tained. Justice LanTar never forgot
that he was a Huguenot, and that his
ancestors were baptised in the fires of
persecution because of their Protes
tant faith.
I believe in blood in blooded
stock whether it be in man or beast,
but I have no patience with a man who
has nothing else:to boast of. I know
many men whox sprang from very
humble parentage and have made
their way to the front unaided and
with no family influence. . Such men
command respect everywhere, but,
still it is a comfort to any man to
have a noble ancestry, and it is an in
centive to him to do right and keep
up the lamuv record. 11 lie lails or
falls, he has scandalized the pedigree
and become a scrub.
Speaking of ancestors, it is most
astonishing how little we know of
them. My children have of late been
trying to make up a family tree, and
I was ashamed that I could tell ; them
so litde. I could go back two genera
tions on the paternal side and then
had to skip over to a Salem newspa
per of j 775 that is in the family, and
it had thirty -six coffins pictured on
the margin across the top, and every
coffin has a name and the names were
of the volunteers who fell at the battle
of Concord. One of them has my
father's name, and was his grandfath
er or his uncle, and so my 1 daughters
havdht been exactly certain whether
they could slip in among the daugh
ters of the revolution or not You
see, that is stylish i now, and a - big
thing in society i but, somehow, I
never took much stock it it. To be a
confederate veteran was honor enough
for me. You see my father was a
full-blooded yankee, and came South
when he was a young man and taught
school, and never went back to mas-
sachusetts. He married a native of
Chaleston, S. C. and from that union
I sprang, which made me high-tempered.
My rhotherwas Scotsh-Irish,
arid her lather, an exile from the- per
secution that lollowed the death of
Emmet ; but that is all I know about
myself.
But when I come to the maternal
side, which is my wife's, I come to
quality people, for my wife's motner
was"3Holt, and they were blooded
stock. . Considering that I was about
half an Irishman and half a yankee. I
don't know how I ever eot into the
Holt family. But I did, and it wasent
very hard work either ; she was as
willing as I was. Her good old
laftier. Judge Hutchins, was one of
these self-made men and, dident have
a very long line of notable ancestors,
but the Holt's had lands and negroes
and carriages and silverware and
gold watches and gold-headed anes
ana pedigrees Irom away back, and
my wife knew it, and she knows it
yet She loves to tell her children
about her grandpa, who was Hines
Holt, and her grandma, who was
Polly Holt, and how princely they
lived at the Cowpens in Walton
county, and how many splendid boys
and beautiful eirls thev raised, and
how they once lived in Eatonton and
their children grew "op and married
the cream of the land and settled in
Macon, Columbus'and Talbotton and
Tuskekee'and Montgomery, and how
the Holts were kin t6 Dixon H.
Lewis and Coling Hall and ever so
many more, etc, etc. .
Well, as the gfrls were making up
the family tree, and putting every
thing down in black and white, they
asked their mother for Ihe maiden
name of her Grandmother Holt. "Her

grandfather was Samuel 'S. Seward
and his grandmother was a Jennings.
Well, if that don't make my wile's
grandmother a sister of William H.
Seward, .. what's the reason. I'm
having high old imv now, . lor, you
see, I'v been sorter : overshadow
ed about this pedigree business. It
was never thrown up,, to me that I
was a yankee not exactly but I had
been-one sometime, or"my father was,
and the South Carolina stock had
sorter redeemed me. At all events,
it was never intimated that my folks
were as good as the Holts, and I've
always encouraged my . children to
hold up the family blood, which was
the Holts, and I generally claim kin
with all the Holts I come across from
Virginia to Texas. But, now, these
investigating girls have run their
mother's - pedigree right square up
to W'illiam H. Seward's father, anoth
er full-blooded yankee, and this
thing has been smothered and kept
from me for forty-four years. The
litde book says that old Samuel Se
ward was a slave owner, and he had a
most faithful servant whose name was
Chloe. Well, that's all right, my
wiels mother had a slave whose name
Chloe,and she is in the family yet,and
I reckon is a grandmother of the
other one. The tittle book says that
William H. Seward taught school six
months and then went backjto finish
his college course ; but old Eatonton
people told me he fell in love with a
Georgia girl and she kicked him, and
he went back rejected and dejected.
But it seems that his sister, who came
with him I reckon,' captured a Geor
gia boy, and there was never a hap
pier union. So it is according to- love
and scripture : "One shall be taken
and the other left," and I'm proud
that the blood of old Samuel Seward
and of Colonel Jennings is in my
children's veins, for they were not
only slave owners, but were fighting
stock in the revolutionary war, and
that lets . my girls in among the
daughters of the revolution and, of
course into first-class society.
We are about even now me and
my wife on ancestry half yankees
all round. I'm holding my head up
and am calm and serene, but if any
body asks you what Mrs. Arp says
about these unexpected proceedings,
please tell him that you don't know.

-ONLY AN ARTIST'S MODEL.
How a Good Hearted Girl Saved a fainter
- When He Was Starving
Before a man's work is established in
value among the picture buyers he has
very often great hardships. There are
tragedies in the studios that seldom get
into the newspapers. One of our best
known and most prosperous portrait
painters lived for months on the mea-
ferest fare when he came home from
'aris, too proud to let his friends know
his Btraitened circumstances and too lit
tle of a business man to dispose of his
sketches. " . - ,
What little money he had was spent
in hiring a model. -Had it not been for
the quick wit and kind heartedness of
that young woman her employer would
probably have starved.. One morning
she came hurriedly into the squalid
Btadio, crying:
"I have sold it! I have sold it."
"Sold what?" asked the young painter,
looking wearily up from his canvas.
"That sketch you made of me last
week," continued the model ' breathless
ly. "An eld friend of mine met me in
the street just now and said ho' would
give $30 for a picture of me, andI closed
the bargain with him at once. Here is
the money. Now I will bundle up the
sketch and take it to him at once."
Before the astonished artist could ut
ter a protest she had disappeared with
the canvas. A few minutes later the
model returned, and declaring that as
she got the money she should have the
partial spending of it seized a $5 bill
and rushed to the nearest restaurant,
where she bought a luxurious breakfast
and had it sent to the studio.
The painter and his friend had a merry
meal together. It was his first stroke of
good luck since he came back from
Paris, and it put such fresh ambition in
to his brushes that he presently ob
tained several commissions for pictures
and became comparatively prosperous.
In the exultation of his success he
quite forgot the poor girl who sold his
first picture. One night as he was going
to a fashionable reception a grimy news
boy came " to his studio and whispered
hoarsely: ' "
"Say, mister, she's a-dyin." .
"Who'B dying?" asked the painter.
"Why," continued the youngster, "her
as used to stand fur ,her picter. She's
a-dyin, I tells yer, an she keeps a-ravin
an a-ravin about yer njune thet I thought
as how Td come an tell ye. - An I foun
out where ye lived, im I com'. If ye
doano w'ere Cherry Street is, Til show
ye, if ye wants to-iee her afore she
croaks."
Piloted by the newsboy, the artist made
his way to the attic of a tenement in one
of the poorest quarters of the city. On
a mattress stretched on the floor the
model lay, delirious, in the final stage of,'
consumption.- -
Sending the newsboy hurriedly for a
physician, the artist knelt by the girl's
side and tried to recall her wandering
senses. But the dying woman looked at
hi blankly and turned away, moaning
some confused thought about saving
somebody's life, '
"He was so good and kind, and I ioved
hi so until the grand ladies took Mm
away from me," she whispered. "Maybe
he has forgotten me,-maybe ho has for
gotten. But I have got it still, and when
I get well and can make some money I
mean to get it framed."
A few minutes later the poor creature
threw back her he?A and was still. As
the painter drew 1 n end of the ragged
coverlet over her face he gave a cry of
agony. The la7 d eyes of the dead wo
man were star'ug at a. canvas hung on
the wall. Jt ws.i the sketch she had
bought froia him out of her meager
earnings when he was on the verge of
starvation. New York-Cor. Boston

: Singing: Helps a Consumptive. ...
The time will soon come when singing
will be regarded as one of the great helps
to physicians in lung diseases, more es
pecially in their incipient state. Almost
every branch of gymnastics is employed
in one way or another by the doctors,
but the simple and natural function of
singing has not yet received its full meed
of attention. In Italy some years ago
statistics were taken which proved that
the vocal artists were especially ong
lived and healthy under normal circum
stances, while of the brass instrumen
talists it was discovered tnat consump
tion never claimed a victim among them.
Those who have a tendency toward
consumption should take easy vocal ex
ercises, no matter how thin and weak
their voices may seem to be. They will
find a result at times far surpassing any
relief afforded by medicine. Vocal prac
tice in moderation is the best system of
general gymnajstics that can be imag
ined, many muscles being brought into
play that would scarcely be suspected of
action in connection with so simple a
matter as tone production. Therefore,
apart from all art considerations, merely
as a matter of health, one can earnestly
say to the healthy, "Sing, that you may
remain so," and to the weakly, "Sing,
that you may become strong." New

Getting Along in tbe World.
"No man with the least bit of enter
prise need go broke long in this country,"
said Alonzo Gentry, a member of the
Reminiscence club, which was holding a
seance at the , Lindell. "In 1886 I was
out .with a comedy company in western
Iowa. Business was bad, the gho3t re
fused to peregrinate, and finally a stony
hearted honiface attached our baggage
and props. There were twelve of us, and
hot the price of a round in the party. I
paired off with the heavy villain, and we
walked to Atlantic, a town of 4,000 .or
5,000 inhabitants. There I pawned a
ring for two dollars, and with this cash
capital we started to work our way back
to the Rialto. We invested fifty cents m
cocktails, ten cents in tobacco and ten
cents in wire. The heavy villain took
the latter up to our room for we put up
at the best hotel and cut it into short
pieces, which we twisted into fantastic
shapes.
"Then he started out and made a house
to house canvass, selling M3 great inven
tion for lightening labor. He actually
made the women believe that one of those
wires hung on the wheel of a sewing
machine would increase the speed and
lighten the labor, of treading. He sdld
them at fifty cents apiece, and as he was
a good talker he fairly coined money.
We left Atlantic two days later with a
receipted hotel bill and tickets to Chi
cago among our assets. Perhaps it wasn't
exactly in conformity with the most ap
proved code of ethics, but when I thought
of the tie counting it saved me I hadn't
the heart to quarrel with him." St.
Louis Globe-Democrat.
The Toy of Alaska Children.
"The natives of Alaska may not suffer
from a surfeit of civilization," said James
H.Wardell of Fort Wrangell, Alaska,
at theLfcdell, "but there are soma
things in which they excel, notably in
the way of children's toys. Every baby
in Fort Wrangell has a plaything that
would be the envy and admiration of
any child in America. It is an odd and
curious contrivance rather a mixture of
a jumping -jack and a rattle. It is made
of a piece of ivory or walrus tooth. It is
about inches long and about 1 inch in
diameter. A hole is bored in it from,one
end only. In thi3 there is a rod with a
crown Bhaped top, surmounted by a
small rubber ball. .
"At the bottom of the rod is. a stout
though small leather string, which passes
through a hole in the side of the hollow
walrus tooth. When the child pulls the
string, the rod, crown and ball jump
nearly out of the tooth. - The length of
the string prevents its leaving the piece
entirely. Then, when the string is loos
ened, they clatter down with a rattling
sound and strike the bottom with a chug
that fills the heart of the budding Es
kimo with glee. It is a very funny, de
sign for a rattler, and there is nothing
like it in America. It is simple, but
popular, and the man who first struck
the idea is getting rich, although his
scheme is not patented." Exchange.

The Old Venetian Carnival.
The carnival lasted six months, and
masking was a universal habit It has
been said that in the beginning the mask
was a token of fraternal condescension
on the part of the rich and noble toward
their inferiors. It leveled all ranks, like
the grave, though in a more agreeable
manner. But this Utopian justification
of it soon passed out of date. It became
instead the very best possible veMcle for
intrigue and social corruption. That in
effect was what it was. During carnival
time no one thought of going out of
doors except in disguise. The maid sent

BuriaU In Churclies. 1
An application was made,' at theKn
sistory court of London for a faculty to
authorize the removal of a large quan
tity of human remains from underneath,
the Church of St. Mary Woolchurch
Haw, Lombard street, which, were caus
ing unwholesome effluvia. Two thou
sand one hundred and five, bodies were
proved to have been buried under the
church and churchyard, part of which
had-been taken, in 1830 for the formation
of King William street, and the rector
stated that on many Sundays during
divine service the congregation had been
startled by hearing 'leaden coffins crash
through wooden coffins which had given
way through corruption and Aecay.
The church was in so pestilential a
state that it was intolerable to enter n
in wanrT weather, and the effluvia were
bo foul as to account for the deaths of
several of the church officials, the rector
himself 'having suffered from an affec
tion of the throat attributable to the de
composition of the bodies. LondonJTit-
