The virgins scare,

ATLANTA. Ga, Sept. 29.-Haif q
million people in Georgia, South Caro-
lima, Florida ard AlabAmA sat up All
night Watching for the hexappearancs OF
WtRgtns earthquake. Another hall
million rose ut day light to scan skies
and see II the predicted eyclones were
coming. Probably =at mo time since
the war has excitement been 30 general
throughout the South Atlantic and
Gulf States as within the last week. II
was fortunate for the nervous people
that this morning dawned clear and
beautiful. without cloud In the sky.
A 3 O'Clock the streets of this city.
usually deserted until z, were alive with
people, but the clear atmosphere calmed
the fears OF even the negroes, most of
whom went TO work again ON seeing no
signs OF judgment day. By IL Q. IN. the
nervous people who had arranged to
spend the day In the fields found the
sun rather hot. and one by one they
kept returning home, and at noon every
one hsd apparently forgotten Virgins
and his prophecy.
In the suburban districts, however,
such was not the care. All through
Georgia and South Carolina and In
those portions of Florida from which
dispatches have been received to- dsy
the negroes spent the entire night In
prayer and administering the rites OF
baptism. The fact that there had been
q severe earthquake shock at Charles.
ton and three or more shocks at Sum-
merville added to the negroes terror as
soon as the report was noised abroad
last night.
About dark tho heavens olouded over
and ut 8 O'Clock rain was falling, &C
companied by terrific wind. This set
the superstitious people into an ecstscy
OF terror, and even among the whites in
the country number OF serious cases
Of illness from fear are reported. 1t was
thought that the scenes in Augusta and
elsewhere, where people committed sui.
eide after the recent earthqake thro ouRh
sheer fright. would be repeated.
But fortunately by midnight the
storm passed away and the stars began
peeping out. To day having passed
quietly, the prayer meetings tonight
have teen discontinued, and the people
who have been fasting and preparing
for translation Into the future state are
taking muoh-needed rest preparatory to
gathering the cotton crop, which is
now ripenius. The Virgins scare stands
without precedent In the history of the
South.
