A Kansas Doy writes horot from Manilla: "There are many queer customs to be seen here Tfce natire women do not hold Up their shirts when crossing the streets. They hare no skirts to hold up. Bnt that isn't the strangest custom. The men do not look' The attorney general has rendered an opinion of much general interest and importance regarding the appointment of magistrates. It is given the Secretary of State in response to an inquiry by Clrk Watson, of Craven Superior court. The attorney general says: "It is my opinion that clerks are au thorized to appoint justices of the eace to a vacancy caused death, resignation or other cause during the term of office and also in case of failure of the electors of any district to elect. The second clause of Section 28, Article 4, of the con stitution has again become ope rative bv virtue of thP art. nf 1895, Chapter 127. Section 4. When a person is elected jus tice of the peace and fails to qualify, it become the duty 0f the rr"T"rrr to appoint. I am inclined to think that a jus-ice of the peace elected on the first VIonday in December, 1898, has three months from that date within which to qualify." The governor has. therefore, power to appoint only in one contin gency. Mr. McKinley has done him self agreitdeal of credit dur ing his trip to Atlanta. He has spoken and acted like a Presi dent of the UDited States and not like the President of the Republican party.

Convicts are re quired to weai stripped cloth ing but it is said bids were asked for cheap white cotton cloth for shirts.

E W. AYERS, 116 Main St, i ' " at Nashville, was sent to Nash jiil. One young, white man tall and 21 years old, got year and a day and instantly broke into such roar of crying as to stop business, He threw him elf on his knees before the judge.
