To ratify the choice of the recent democratic state primary for officers on the state ticket and to select delegates to the national democratic convection, delegatets from all parts of Georgia will assemble here Tuesday noon. There will be few or no contests. Delegates from the various congressional districts will meet Tuesday to choose delegates to the national convention, in some cases instruct, and in many cases not, and adjourn before Tuesday noon to go before the full convention body with their choices. The delegates at large doubtless will he Albert H. Cox of Fulton, Peter W. Meldrim of Chatham, Thomas W. Loyless of Richmond and W. S. West of Lowndness. Thus far sentiment as to a democratic nominee for president does not seem to have crystalized. Both Bryan and Johnson are talked of. It looks like an uninstructed delegation to Denver.

FORGIVE THEM SAYS DYING MAN

Insane Pastor of Flock, Killed By Parishioner, Prays For Man. HE HAD WILD FANCEIS. PASTOR BECAME INSANE AND STORED ARMS IN HIS CHURCH WHICH HE LATER MADE USE OF. Herman, Mo., June 22. "God forgive them, they know not what they do," said the Rev. Valentine Strauss, who was shot and killed by Max Kneische, a member of his congregation. The Rev. Mr. Strauss was pastor of the Evangelical Church of Stolpe, twelve miles southwest of this city. For several months he had shown signs of insanity. He had stocked the church and parsonage with all sorts of weapons and amunition. All attempts to remove the guns weer foiled by the preacher, who became violently insane a week ago. His wife, in terror, notified the neighbors of his condition, and meetings were held, at which it was determined to get him into a sanitarium. Yesterday a number of farmers were discussing ways and means to disarm him when he suddenly came upon them. He had secretly left the parsonage, which was being watched, and opened hostilities by shooting through the windows of Henry Zastrow, his nearest neighbor. The Zastrow family fled and the preacher disappeared. Then he suddenly emerged from a corn field upon the men at Fromm's blacksmith shop. He carried two guns, and several revolvers were belted around his waist. Without warning he opened fire and Kneische, who also was armed, discharged a load of bird shot into his body at short range. Strauss ran about two hundred yards into the woods. His pursuers came upon him as he was kneeling in prayer. For the first time in months his sanity had returned and he realized what had happened. Kneische and others knelt in a circle around their dying pastor, who prayed for them and himself as his life sped away.

POSTAGE STAMPS Waste and Carelessness That Enrich Uncle Sam. "If we waste other things the way we do stamps." snid a stamp clerk the other day. we Americans are just about the most wasteful people on the face of the earth. "Uncle Sam is much more than half a million dollars in pocket every year as a result of carelessness in the use of stamps. The government never loses anything by such carelessness and always gains. "How many stamps do you put loose in a drawer of your desk or in a corner of your pocketbook and never think of again until you come across them, aged and torn, while rummaging about months later? Then they are tossed into the wastebasket "Lots of people are careless about putting stamps on envelopes and paper wrappers. The result Is that often before the stamp has been canceled it has fallen off and the letter is held .up at the other end of the line until postage is paid. "A great many more folks put on too much ostage. They slap on two or three stamps to a package that requires only one. They are too busy or too Indolent to take the trouble to have the package weighed and find out how much postage the package requires. "If too little postage is put on a letter. Uncle Sam simply holds it up at the other end until the postage due has been paid. But if too much is put on Uncle Sam simply pockets the excess to which he is not entitled and Bays nothing."

WHERE WILL WEDDING BE? MRS. ANNA GOULD WILL TAKE FRENCHMAN FOR BETTER OR FOR WORSE IN ENGLAND OR AMERICAN EMBASSY IN PARIS. Paris, June 22. It is expected that the De Sagan-Gould marriage will take place either in England or at the American Embassy here, but nothing can be learned as to the exact date for the ceremony, although it is intimated that it will take place before the return of George Gould to the United States. In regard to the difficulties he encountered during his American visit. Prince De Sagan said Sunday that if no definite arrangement was arrived at in America it was because of the codicil to the will of Mme. Gould's father, Vhich prescribed the reduction of her annual income from $600,000 to $36O300. "For myself," said the Prince, "this would not have stopped me. I could live as well with the smaller amount I had terrible work to win against the family, but I won by a method which has always given me success, namely, the force of inertia, "I am accustomed to a Bohemfan life. I never really know in the morning what I shall do in the evening, but when I mean to accomplish a purpose I remain crouching in my corner until my excited antagonists dash themselves to pieces."

The latter achieved the rank of earl by honorable enough means, while the former got himself raised to the rank of emperor by the arts of the burglar and the assassin, with the result that he was overtaken by a natural enough Nemesis at Sedan.

GEN. RAMON CACERES PROCLMIMIESIDENT Will Serve Santo Domingo Six Years Longer.

Santo Domingo, Republic of Santo Domingo, June 22. The national congress has proclaimed Gen. Ramon Caceres re-elected president of the republic for a term of six years. The ceremony was carried out with great solemnity and at its conclusion a sa lute of twenty-one guns was fired. The people spent the day in celebrating the proclamation. SERPENT OF" AESCULAPIUS. Worship of Snakes Led to Adoption of the Mystical Symbol. It has been pointed out by Dr. Boudln that the worship of the serpent was so universal in antiquity that all temples came to be known as "draconia" (serpent bouses). However that may be, serpents were kept in many of the temples of antiquity, notably In those of Apollo, whose son, Aesculapius, is represented in ancient statuary carrying a serpent Intwined round a staff or round his arm. The serpent, indeed, came in time to be the special mystical emblem or symbol of the Aesculaplan art. The serpents of the ancient Greek temples were In all probability relics of that primitive serpent worship which was at one time universal among prehistoric peoples and has not died out among many savage races at the present day. And "voodoo," or "obi, serpent worship is still said to linger in the West Indies among the descendants of slaves. In Haiti especially, where negroes were dumped down from Africa by the old slave traders and were kept in reserve before being sold to masters in the surrounding islands, voodoo has defied "Roman Catholic missionaries and priests for ages. A French naval officer who visited the court of the Haitian potentate Soulongue in 1S49 described a voodoo ceremony where cannibalistic and other orgies were ladulged in. It is noticeable that the cock and black goat which were solemnly eaten on this occasion were both of them sacred to Aesculapius. Hence we may infer that the Aesculaplan cultus was originally an innocent form of voodoo and at the same a primordial religion. The extreme antiquity of serpent worship seems, indeed, to be hinted at In Genesis, where the devil appears in the guise of the snake god intent on the ruin of man. In the story of the brazen serpent healing Qualities are attributed to the (mage. Lancet.

Sleep

Sleep is nature's rebuilding period, when the energy used by the brain, muscles and organs is renewed. If you lose sleep, your system is robbed of the strength sleep should give. Continued loss of sleep multiplies this loss until you become a rrfrysical wreck. Dr. Miles Nervine quiets the irritated nerves and brings refreshing, invigorating sleep. Nervine contains no opiates, and therefor leaves no bad after-effects. "For over two years I suffered untold aronle&g my friends thought X was ROlns crmsy. I could not eleep nor rewt at aU. I trfod different doctors, but failed to find relief. Mr head would obe all the time; I was like one drunk; could not concentrate tny mind, and was o rretleas and worried that sleep wu oat of the question. After talcing one bottle of Dr. Miles Nervine I felt wonderfully changed. I am now on tot third bottle and am raining all the time. X can lie down and sleep like a child, and am able to do my work.
