How an Actor was Made.
Maclyn Arbuckle, the actor, was
invited to a dinner to meet a few
members of congress the last time he
played in Washington, says the Sunday
Magazine. He told this story:
"I am from Bowie county, Texas,
and my presence here to-night is peculiarly
appropriate because I, too,
once ran for office, one of the highest
and most distinguished offices in the
gift of the people, that of justice of
the peace. Toward the end of my
campaign 1 made my greatest speech.
Standing on a goods box in a crossroads
store. I told my constituents all j
about Marcus" Aurelius and Plutarch. I
I dwelt on the importance of secur-1
ing justice for all. 1 raved. I roared.
Demosthenes would have envied me.
"Then my opponent rose and said,
Voters, you know 1 owli a big grocery
store a few miles up the road.
1 am about to open a new and long
line of credit. If I am elected, I
shall, be glad to see you all at my
store." " *
Arbuckle paused and surveyed his
political hearers sadly. "Gentlemen,"
he concluded mournfully, "that 'line'
made me go on the stage for a living."?Exchange.

MAYOR Vs. GOVERNOR.
Mayor Gibbes Refused to Recognize
Executive Clemency.
By refusing to release Bratton Pettigrew,
a young white man last
Wednesday, Mayor Gibbes, of Columbia,
raised the question of the right
of the governor of South Carolina to.
extend clemency to prisoners convicted
in the city recorder's court.
Bratton Pettigrew was convicted be~D
annrHap Uomor on Mnnrtav
I V/A C IWV/Ui UV1 T V?A UVA v**
morning on'the charge of drunkenness
and was sentenced to pay a fine
of $15 or serve 30 days on the city
chaingang. Wednesday the governor
paroled Pettigrew on the condition
that he refrain from the use of whiskey
for'one year and that he serve
out his sentence' if convicted during
the year on the charge of drunkenness.
"I was not consulted," said Mayor
Gibbes, "as to the status of the case
by the governor. Pettigrew has been
a persistent offender, and mercy has
been granted to him many times. He
was examined by the city physician,
and no -trace of tuberculosis was
found. I do not believe that the governor
has the power to grant a parole
in the case."
The governor has granted clemency
in 256 cases since assuming the office.

Strange Names.
\
Some churches have interesting
and - suggestive names. Take these
two, for instance: "Pilgrim's Rest,"
and "Solid Rock." The first has in !
it no hint oi' work. The name sug-j
gests rest and quiet, and even slum-i
ber. To repeat it almost makes one j
nod. It is so reposeful, so apart'
from any suggestion of toil or battle, j
If all churches were fittingly named, j
there would be, perhaps, several Pil-i
grim Rests. - And "Solid Rock"?just j
what dope thie ene-e-pet9 Te it. not ft ;
challenge to the gates of hades to
rise up and do their best? Is there
not in it assurance and defiance?
