A sharp Trick Fooled.

( A running race OF 200 yards, for $4,000
a side, between Atlanta and Charleston
men, was arranged to be run at Charles
ton this week. When the Georgians ar
rived at their destination Monday, the
Charlestonians learned that the supposed
Atlanta man was II. ;. Kettleman, of
Michigan, who is one OF the most famous
sprinters in this country. The informant
of the Charleston manager was man
who had seen Kettleman run great race
at New Orleans during the exposition,
where over $4,000 was offered in prizes,
and the best sprinters in the country were
entered. kettleman then beat all his COM
petitors easily, and won thousands Of dol
lars for his friends and hackers and him.
self. He had run many famous races be-
fore that, and has ran several times since.
He has run 100 yards in 10 seconds, and
by shrewd sporting men is considered a
match for either Myers, the champion OF
America, or Hughes, the champion OF
England. The Charlestonian was, In
deed, a remarkably good runner, but his
best l00-yard record was IL seconds. 1t
would therefore have been a walk-away
for Kettleman if they had met. After the
discovery of Kettleman's identity there
was some little feeling between the At
lanta and the Charleston men, but this
was soon amIcablv adjusted. Eacn party
withdrew his $500 forfeit, and all bets
were declared off.

order to stroll it was necessary TO get out

cat was through hole in the window in

IN the sun and cured. When the cat

Grandpapa Hurst's Prophecies.

From the CedartolOR tGd.) 4 d0ertissr.
Elder l.. r. Hurst is the grandfather of
Miss Lula Hurst. His hair is now silvered
with age, being 70. He has given the
prophecies study OF 60 years. He is now
engaged in a work on the times OF
prophecy, the first chapter of which we
have been permitted TO inspect. By a
process of computing peculiarly his own,
and the accuracy of which he claims is
incontroVertible, he has figured out the
fulflIment OF the Biblical prophecies. He
takes up the prophecies Of Daniel,
Ezekiel, jeremiah, Isaiah, aud the vision
of John, locates tulfillments past and 10
come. The battle fought by Titus Caesar
at the fall Of Jerusalem corresponds with
the fifth sound and second woe, and met
a fulfllment 65 years after the birth OF
Christ,a and the SEVENTEEN year OF the pres
emit era. The battle under the sixth
sound is TO meet a fulillment in 1886
OF the present era, when, according 70
Revelation, ''the sixth vial Of wrath Will

Atlanta on Canvas.

The most successful and popular way
Of deuicting battle is by the cyclorama.
A cyclOrama is an immense circular
building, The walls of which are painted
with battle scenes and the floor of which
is a regular battle field, covered with
real cannon, horses, tents and defenses.
The point of contact between the real
earth and the lower edge OF the wall pic
ture is 80 subtly shaded that standing
IN the central tower from which the
scene is surveyed, it is impossible to tell
where the reality ends land the picture
begins. There are eight cycloramas in
the United States, in Chicago, Phil adel-
phia, Boston aud New York. The four
battle scenes illustrated, are the siege OF
Paris, the battle Of Sedan, the battle OF
Gettysburg, and the battle of shiloh.
Enormous fortunes have been made by
the owners OF these cycloromas. The ona
representing the battle Of Gettysburg,
which is built In Chicago, made in one
year nearly S250,000. A company has
been organized 10 make a new cyclorama
OF the seige Of Atlanta. A company OF ar
lists, headed by Mr.. Davis, Is now in At
lanta, studying the suburbs and the old
battle sites, aud getting acquainted with
the lay OF the land. As soon as they as
certain the salient points OF attack and
defense they will plan and make up their
painting. ~ will, OF course, cover many
thousand square feet Of canvas, aud will,

rama yet made. Mr.. Davis Is an artist OF
fine perception and ability, being en-
ployed upon H1rDei's and the Century
staff. He Is assisted by French and Ger
man artists, the cyclorama having had
ite origin In France.
The artists have been on the ground
only day or two, and have not yet de-
termiDed what points will be shown up in
