President Roosevelt contemplates appointing itfajor Micah Jenkins col Jector.pf internal, revenue in..place.of -C-eorge rtoester, writes, the \>"ashing ton correspondent^ of the Charleston News and Courier, whose nomination is now hung up in the Senate without j - i?e-sehtest prospect of confirmation. I am also informed, upon unquestion- j able authority, that the President is : .seriously considering the proprietv1 of reappoir.tins William L. Karri's! postmaster at Charleston. . It has been known for some time past that- George Koester's nomina tion as collector of internal revenue could not be confirmed by the Senate. The ' personal opposition of Senator Tillinan to Koester has been si ven out as the principal reason why his nomi nation has been held up in*th<- fi-ance committee so long. The real reason is that the colored Republicans j throughout the country have organized a formidable protest against Koester. which the Republican Senators are afraid to ignore. Therefore the Presi dent does not feel wilUing to insist upon retaining Koester in the service in defiance of tho political forces ar rayed against him. The King Edward coronation cere-, monies begin this week. The gala days to which London and a good deal of the rest of the world has looked forward to and planned for with the utmost zest are at hand. It is to be hoped that they will signalize the be ginning of an enlightened reign that will usher in a brighter epoch for Great Britain and her varions depend- ] encies, stricken South Africa amfcrc j the numiber. ^A-Hfc DISPENSERS I PRIMARY. Their Election Thus Prohibited, but Some Counties Disobey. The State Democratic convention at its recent session passed a rule that members of county boards of control and dispeners should not be voted for in the primary.. Notwithstanding this, one or two county committees have made provision for holding such elections?one of them is Edgefield, and it is stated that such elections will be held in that county, the con vention rule to the contrary notwith standing. The plan was also mooted in Aiken, but it has not been adopted. Chair man Wilie Jones, in reply to Chairman Thorpe, of Aiken, says : "Article 6 of the constitution of the Democratic party prohibits the nomi nation in the primary of members of the county board of control and coun ty dispensers. I do not think that it would be according to the constitution to allow a ballot box to be voted for as an expxression of opinion. It would undoutedly be contrary to the consti- [ tution, and I therefore rule that it cannot be done. " On the advice of Senator Hanna, who is too astute a politician not to appreciate the baneful effect on his party ?f the continued suppression of facts and figures by the war depart ment, Secretary Boot has made pub lic the cost of the Phiff?ppine war up to the first of May. By the most conservative methods of figuring which the Secretary could command, the total now aggregates $170,326,586. These figures, large as they are, do not however, tell tbe whole story. Mr. Root, of course, makes no men tion of the $20,000,000 originally paid to Spain, nor has he any way of figur ing that portion of the cost which has been incurred by the navy depart ment, and which is not small. Last May, however, the secretary of the navy threw some light on the situa tion by sending to Congress a state ment, the total of which aggregated, in round numbers, 820,000,000. It; may, therefore, be safely stated that the Philippine Islands have cost this country, up to date, $210,000,000, which would mean, exclusive of the purchase price, an annual expenditure of $50,000,00t. So-stupendous are these figures that they convey but lit tle to the mind of the average man, but when it is calculated that the isl ands have cost every man in the United States $3, or, to the bread winner who has five mouths to feed, $15, some conception of the expense of being a "world power" can be arrived at. Senor Gonzales de Quesada, the new Cuban Minister, has been regu larly escorted to the White House by Secretary Hay and presented, with his credentials, to President Roose velt. Diplomatic relations betweeen the two countries have, therefore, been properly launched. An elevator in a Broome street, New York, building fell a distance of six stories, one day recently, with twenty-six persons in it. Eleven of the paassengers were injured, but the wonder is that any of them escaped with their lives after such a plunge as that. Here is an idea for Sumter county candidates : A candidate out West car ries a good plow hand on his rounds. When he wishes to talk to a farmer he lets his friend take charge of the team and keep the plow going. The farmer is generally willing- to talk several hours while the "sub" is plowing. A good many married women have read with delight that a young woman in the state of New York has been sentenced for 60 days in jail for flirting with another woman's husband. They would have been still more delighted had the sentence been imprisonment for life. If a spinster isn't as tall as she would like to be she should get spliced. ?Dispensers for the towns of Lake City and Scranton will be elected by the Williamsburg board of control on July 5. II I II II. - Tennyson nmi Darsam. Tennyson was extremely eager at one time to visit America, and touchiug this point a story is related to the effect that Barnum offered him an enormous sum to make the trip, though probabl5 not as one of the attractions of the "greatest - show on earth."

Seines were allowed to re tain 1.000 or 2.000 barrels of the Ssb until they perished, and then the nei was freed, and the whole contents fell to the bottom to pollute the ocean for miles around. When a poaching smack was captured, the herrings It had on board were all thrown into the sea. and frequently boats- when chased resorted to the same means to get rid of incrim inating evidence. The fish then fetched ?nly 50 cents a barrel of 500 herrings, or ten for a cent?Cleveland Plain Dealer. ANIMAL IMITATIVENESS. I u Begpir's Dos Groove to Be Like Hie Master. "One of the most curious traits to be found in the animal nature," said an observant citizen, "is that which grows out of the unconscious Imitativeness of creatures of the lower order. I have observed many instances of where the creatures of a lower order have taken on the characteristics in some notice able degree of members of the human family. One might know, for instance, the beggar's dog from the look of the dog, from the droop of the eye, the pa thetic hang of the lip and a certain gen eral air of despondency and hopeless ness which seems to speak in the very nature of the animal. I mention the beggar's dog because it is a familiar example. The beggar's dog never looks cheerful, never smiles, never frohes, but simply sits by his master and broods and begs for whatever charity may give. "I have seen the dog character mold ed under happier influences, and the dog became more" cheerful. He was a light hearted, free and easy sort of creature and seemed to get something of the sunnier side of things. I am al most tempted to say that if you will show me a man's dog I will tell you what 'manner of man the owner is, with particular reference to tempera ment and his moods. Th? melancholy man. tibe mau who grovels mentally along the gloomier groves, the pessi mistic man who is always looking at the darle side of th? picture, ail the men who come within these unhappy classi fications rarely own a cheerful dog. The dog unconsciously takes to the ways of the master and In his moods Imitates the master's way of thinking. "But turn to the dog of the jolly, cheerful fellow. Watch him show his teeth in laughter when the master ap proaches. He is darting across the yard and dancing and frisking around the master's feet in the happiest way imaginable, and he is up to all kinds of pranks and does all kinds of little things to indicate the good nature that is in him. He does as his master does and seems to take the same general view of life. These are small things, I guess, but they show just how impor tant one's way of thinking may influ ence one's dog and change his* whole view of life."?New Orleans Times Democrat Barxnese Ambition. The highest ambition of a Burman's life is to build a pagoda, by which he wins the title of Kyanng Taga during this incarnation and secures a mort gage on Nirvana. A Burman does not become a Christian easily,^ but when he does he brings with him the convic tion he had as a Buddhist that to build a place of worship is the most meri torious act of a man's life. This accounts for the present cathe dral of Mandalay, built at a cost of 00,000 rupees by Kyanng Taga Paul Obon, a Burmese ruby merchant of that city. The old church of Amara pura was built by an Armenian and the two churches of the Tennessarim coast by a gentleman named De Castro. Many of the 700 and more chapels and churches throughout Burma are built of jungle wood, which is destroy ed in a few years by the white ants. To replace them by teak or pyingkado, not to speak of mo\lest structures, is a matter of hope with every priest, but in their straitened finances they do the best they can and.pray for Kyanng Tages to came along.?Donahoe's Mag azine. ?'!Xo Interference." There is one thing anarchists will not consent to, one thing they rebel against (at least in thought, and sometimes in act), and that is anybody's assumption to rule another, whether it be czar, king, nobility or a democrat majority, says William M. Salter in The Atlantic. They are disagreed about many thiugs. There are individualist anarchists and socialist (or communist) anarchists, be lievers in private property and believ ers in common property, but all alike believe in self rule, and they are as much opposed to democratic state socialism as to state socialism of any kind. They believe that power intoxicates the best of men and are not willing to allow it in any form. "No master, high or low," they say," after William Morris. "Let life shape itself." "Mind your own busi ness," "No interference"?such is their demand. The Great Vaine of Saving: Time. Thrift of time is as necessary as thrift of money, and he who knows how t? save time has learned the se cret of accumulating educational op portunity. Men who regard it as sin ful to waste money waste time with a prodigal's lavishrress because they do not- understand the value of short periods of time. Society is full of peo ple who might enrich themselves a hundredfold and make their lives im mensely more interesting if they learn ed this commonplace truth.?Ladies" Home Journal.

A Man Who Wishes Be Had Lived Up to That Rule. "The only way for a man on a salary to make a success of life financially and otherwise is to stick to one thing." said a government employee to a re porter. "Twenty years ago I had plenty of energy, a little money and a huge stock of ideas. I determined to become a power in the money market and as a starter dabbled for six months or more in stocks. That experience cost me $4,. 000. I soon became convinced that I was cut out for a druggist and straight way invested $2,000 in a pharmacy. Cut rates were unknown in those days, and in a short time I was doing well, but one day I read of a prominent law yer receiving $25,000 as a fee for some case, and instantly I became imbued with the idea that I would make a great lawyer. I neglected my drug business to such an extent that in two years I was $500 to the bad. In the meantime I read law diligently. Alfter a time I graduated as a full fledged dis ciple of Blackstone a:ad hung out my shingle. Business not coming my way as fast as I thought it should, I opened a small hotel; result, $1,300 in the hole. "Then I tried my hand at real estate, my legal training helping, me greatly, but the same old story will have to be recorded here?failure. By this time my money was nearly all gone. What to do next was the all absorbing Question, One day a friend convinced me that bfe money could be made out of chick ens; I invested every cent I had left, $1,200, in hens. At the end of six months I sold out my hennery for $300. Then I got a government job; an?l here I've been ever since. Shortly after my arrivai in this town I purchased a lit tle land in the northwest section. That investment has yielded me a ^ery handsome return, and ? am now thor oughly satisfied that the only thing for a man on a salary to do is to either put a little each month in some good sav ings bank or invest his surplus in land or bricks and mortar. Remember one thing?tills is an age of specialists Stick to one thing, make a success of it and maybe one of these days some big company will offer you a princely salary for your knowledge. A rolling stone gathers no moss or money."? Washington Star. The Florin. The florin, one of the most famous of modern coins, originated in Florence. Some say that it gave the name to the city, while others assert that it was first so called because it had on it a flower-de-luce, from the Italian fiorone, or "flower," for the same reason that an English silver piece is called a "crown," or certain goldpieces in France indifferently a "napoleon" or a "louis," or the ten dollar goldpiece in America an "eagle." Two countries, Austria and Holland, have retained the florin as a unit o.' monetary value, taking it at a tim< when it was very universal in Europe, its usage having been rendered general by the financial supremacy of the little states of northern Italy and the imper fect coinage system of the other coun tries of the continent Physical Formation of Mexico. Mexico possesses a curious physical formation. Rising rapidly by a suc cession of terraces from the low, sandy coasts on the east and west, ic culmi nates in a central plateau, running in a northwesterly and southeasterly di rection and having an elevation Vary 1 ing from 4,000 to S.000 feet above the sea. High above this plateau tower the snow capped crests of several vol canoes, most of which are extinct. Ten of them are over 12.000 feet in height and three look down upon fer tile valleys from altitudes of 17.7S2. 17.350 and 10.000. These are Popo catepetl. Orizaba and Ixtaccihuatl.
