between this point and ST. Paul 81.
Saturday even this slight margin disap-
peared, and tickets were selling both at st.
Paul and Minneapolis at $14, as all of the
Chicago lines claim that they are exacting
$14 from this point to New York for their
proportion. 1t is something of mystery
just how steamship agency is enabled to
make a rate that blots out the fare
between st. Paul and Chicago, unless
in way of competition it is willing to pay
the difference out of its own resources. The
roads which do not participate in this kind
of traffic, or are cut off from it by the de-
moralization, have no hesitation in saying
that one of the Eastern roads is bearing
its proportion of the cut, Notwithstanding
its protests to the contrary.
Yesterday kilograms were received from
the Northwest that tickets were selling as
low as $3.50 and $12, and that one Of the
strong lines, firing of the situation, was
meeting the rates made by opposition.
The New Pacific Competitor.
The completion of the Canadian Pacific

effect upon the affairs of the Pacific coast
business, but to what extent is as yet only
matter of conjecture. Railway men are

and with much interest. 1t is evident that
the policy of the Canadian government,
which virtually controls the roads manage
ment, will be decided upon before long.
The road will no doubt carry passengers at
a very low rate in order to settle up the
country, and will also extend every induce
ment to shippers to ship freight over that
line. 1t is the expressed opinion of rail
road men that only small measure of re-
lief will be offered by the construction of
the line. They say that in the first place
the Northern Pacific has encrOached to as
great an extent upon the territory of the
Central and Southern Transcontinental
roads as it is possible for the Canadian Pa
ciic to do, and if any fights result, they will
be between the Northern and Canadian Pa
cific lines, while it is possible that arrange
ments can be effected for through passen-
ger and freight rates by steamer from
Europe, via the Canadian Pacific, to the
Pacific and way stations, it is doubtful if
q satisfactory plan of operation can be
adopted between the cities on the Atlantic
seaboard and the Pacific. by which the new
line can secure fair percentage of the
transportation tonnage.

STARVATION.
The Effect 1t Has on the Mental Faculties

The Effect 1t Has on the Mental Faculties
of Human beings.
The recent case OF cannibalism at sea
opens up some curious questions as TO
the effects of fasting on the moral
nature of man. To the superficial OBJ
server, death by starvation simply
means a wasting of the body. 4 horrible
agony, an increasing weakness. :.
lethargic state of the brain, and a sleep
from which there is no awakening; but
is this all that it means? While this is
going on, let us consider whether or
not the intellectual faculty. and with
It the power of distinguishing right
from wrong. is not also undergoing a
process of wasting and death. even be-
fore that of the material part, for, how
ever dangerous it may be to received
opinions to associate the material nature
of brain with the moral nature of our
being. we are bound to do so to eluci-
date some of the facts connected with
this case.
Reasoning by analogy, we find that,
in many cases of bodily disease, the
state of the mind is the first indicator of
the mischief going on in the system.
Take even such simple thing as indi-
gestion, which, as every one must
know. is only a manifestation of de-
ranged stomach, and what do we find?
That the lowness of spirits induced by
this affection may vary from slight de-
lection and ill-hrmor to the most ex-
IRENE melancholy, sometimes inducing
even disposition to suicide. The
sufferer misconceires every act of friend
ship, and exaggerates slight ailments
into heavy grievances. So in starva-
ton, the power of reason seems par
alyzed and the intellectual faculty dazed
rally before the functions of the body
suffer, or even the wasting of its tissue
becomes extreme. Such being the case.
the unfortunate individual is not ac-
countable for his actions, even if they
be criminal in character, long before
death puts an end to his suiferings.-

MIR. Goodies Word Contest.
4 tIdntG tGd.) COrresOondenoe augusta Chron

Mr.. Samuel W. Goode struck quite a
happy idea in giving a word contest to
the little folks of Atlanta. The
children have taken a deep interest in
1t, and have done a large amount of
work which will be very valuable to
them.
One little fellow, Willie Archer,
writ s:
''Please find inclosed my list OF words.
OF course ] hope to get The prize, but IL !

blessed spelling lesson / got. | don't

The committee appointed to examine
the papers and award the prizes have
been several days looking into the
matter, and made the following report:
First prize-Miss Dena Corrupt, 1884
words.
Second prize-Miss May Avery 1880
words
Third prize-Miss Marian Johnston,
1881 words.
The first prize is So gold piece, the
second 81 90 gold piece, and the third 81
in gold.
There were $50 responses, of which fifty
furnished over 1000 words, and fourteen
over 1000 words. Besides the prize win
ners the following came very close to the
pr re: Mamie Bass, , 343; May GOode,

the test and used each letter only once,

The Chattooga Wood.

From SUNDAYS Rome tGa.l Bulletin.
The Chattooga river has been on a big
boom. 1t began to rise Friday, and yes
terday reached a point several inches
higher than ever before. A Bulletin re-
porter saw Mr.. d. +. AllgOod. President
of Trion factory, whO is stopping at the
Central with his wife, having come from
Trion Friday evening. The river Satur-
day morning was so high that he could
not return, but by means of his private
telephone line is kept posted as to affairs
at home.
Yesterday evening the river began fall
ing, but not until il had done much dam
age to property along its valley. After
the rains of Septem Der the farmers in that
region opened the shucks of the standing
corn so that the grain would dry. 1t
stood so when the rains OF last week
began. That corn is now entirely ruined,
and the farmers are in bad condition.
Those same September rains washed out
about 100 feet of the TriOu factory dam.
This Mr.. AllgOOd had replaced sufficient
ly to run the mills, but the work was not
complete. This last rise took away all
the new work and about 30 feet additional.
The rising waters also forced about 30
families of the factory operatives to seek
other quarters.
MIR. Allgood's loss Will not be less than
$1,000, but he seems much more concerned
about the loss TO farmers and operatives
than he is about the damage to his own
property. He will begin his work OF re-
pairing as soon as the water is down a
little, and will, he says, make the work
better than ever before.
AT 10 O'Clock last night the Oostanaula
has just reached the corner of John G..
Printup IL Co.'s warehouse and was rising
at the rate of five and one-quarter inches
an hour. The fun effect of heavy rains
above was probably not felt until later.
At 1880 the rain commenced to fall
again and that time the signs seemed to
point to freshet.
