The Girls Are Right.

A war has begun in Atlanta against
the parlor beau-young men who like
to spend an agreeable evening with
young ladies at their homes, but who
never ask the young ladies to go to the
theatre or any other place where money
is necessary. One young woman says,
with disgust, that young, men spend
evenings In her parlor and tell her all
about the performances they have at
tended alone.
This is timely and wholesome war;
fare. Any evening numbers of young
men may be seen at the Milwaukee
theatres alone, although they are known
to be society young men and indefatiga-
BILE parlor beauX. They 90 to the
theatre whenever there is anything
worth seeing, alone, although they are
able to take young ladies. There never
was time when young men were so
Indifferent to the just claims of young
ladies. There is an understood rule
that the young man shall make some
recognition of courtesy ut the hands
of a young lady, but if he does this he
certainly does no more. There is no
escaping the conviction that the young
man who j, constantly enjoying the So
ciety of young ladies is very mean
spirited and selfish person if he attends
theatre alone. There are any num-
Der of charming young women who do
not require that young man shall 90
TO the expense of a carriage. They are
willing to 60 by street-car, or better
yet, to walk, to the theatre. Any young
man with the right sort of feeling is
willing to go only half as often and to
take young lady with him.
The Atlanta girls resent their treat
ment not because of the loss of the
theatre, but because of the lack of de-
cent consideration the young men show.
It is the Indifference to one of the
plainest rights of young women. They
propose TO use the cold shoulder here
after. They do not intend that young
men shall play the role of Grand Mogul
and think it is enough if they smile on
the young ladies of an evening in tho
parlor. The girls are right about this.

a tremendous transform anu nurri-

vile, Tex, last week. Twenty-six
inches of rain fell up to the night of
the 23d, and the wind is said to have
reached a velocity of nearly one hun
dred miles per hour. Over two hum
dred houses in Brownsville were
blown down and large number dam
aged, rendering homeless some 800
families. In Matamoras over three
hundred houses were leveled and
many injured. The entire rear part of
the city, embracing over thirty blocks,
was flooded to the depth of from three
to eight feet, and the people living
there were rescued only with the great
est difficulty. All telegraph lines were
blown down and the Rio Grande and
the Matamoras & Monterey railroads
were washed out, and traffic has not
yet been restored.

Somebody has been telling me yarn
about Ernest Smith, who. by the way.
is pretty generally recognized as one Of
the shrewdest of the younger members
of the Board of Trade. When Ernest
was at college at Ann Arbor, the town
was invaded by Barnums circus, and
the students made up their minds to at
tend the show in Il body. Mr.. Smith
went down to the principal hotel to call
on friend. and, encountering the au-
gust Barnum. felt called upon to repre-
sent the hospitality of the place. So he
walked up to the menageric potentate
and said interrogatively, "Mr. Bar

Barnum was very agreeable, and asked
il the college boys proposed visiting his
greatest show on earth" that night.
Mr.. Smith replied that he thought per-
haps he could induce the students to
attend, whereupon Mr.. Barnum offered
him couple of complimentary tickets,
which were accepted with thanks Mr..
Smith then returned to his fellow stu
dents with glowing recital OF his in
terview with the circus mogul. When
evening came the students were all in
reserved seats under the canvas, and
Ernest occupied prominent position,
his face beaming with several kinds of
happiness, particularly that kind which
young men feel when they are on init
mate terms with greatness. The clown
ran into the ring and stumbled against
the ring-master. That worthy cracked
his whip at the man in motley, and ex.
claimed: Get out of here, you rascal!
Who are you, anyhow" The clown
responded with great distinctness: Il
am Ernest +. Smith, son of Perry H.
Smith, the great railway magnate of
Chicago" There was roar and n
yell from the students, and, when the
confusion was over, it was found that
Mr.. Smith had escaped through hole

Frightful Shipwreck Near Frank
fort, Mich.
Two Lumber schooners Driven Ashore,

Vessel Wrecked, with Fatality.

DETROIT, Nov. ia special from Frank
fort says: During the height of the storm
yesterday afternoon, at intervals through
the binding snow-storm, & ree-masted
schooner could be seen about six miles
southwest of Frankfort. Her poles were
almost bare, and the deck seemed clear
Of cargo. An attempt was made to anchor
her, and she held for time,
but soon broke loose and drifted
helplessly before the gale. The wind
gradually increased in violence, and the
seas were growing every moment larger,
when darkness settled like pail over the
face Of the lake. Help was. asked
from the life-saving station at Manistee,
but II was impossible for a tug to

the life-saving station, six miles north Of
here, was reached, and the apparatus
hauled Sown the coast by a few volun-
teers over steep hills, winding ravines,
tree trunks and heavy snow-drifts, and
pelted by the driving snow and hail. They
arrived at the scene OF the disaster at Her
ring Creek at 4 O'Clock th 8 morning. The
vessel was totally broken up and with
the cargo piled up on the beach, every
thing being completely destroyed. Broken
masts, shrouds, lumber and debris, all
were mixed and piled up together. Captain
Matthews thinks she must have had her
anchor down and pounded to pieces on the
outer bar One body was found. The YES

she broke as soon as she struck. No other

wreck was discovered two miles south,
where the same chaotic wreckage was seen.

OIabolicaI Suggestion to Blow Up the

CHICAGO Nov. 21.-A local German pa
per asserts in its issue to day that tho
Anarchists of this city have renewed
their agitation, and that the cali for
meetings Of the ''groups" are circulated
openly. Monday evening" the article
says, Sin the hall ON Clybourn avenue, q
meeting of the North Side Group of the
International Working Peoples Associa-
tion was held, at which various .'plans''
were discu ied. Some of the persons pres
ent thought that on stormy night, with
a few pounds ofdynamite, the water-tower
could be blown up and fires started at some
dozen different places. The Water-works
destroyed, the fire department could have
no water; half the city would 90 up in
blaze, aud in the confusion thus caused

Of the Lehr und Wehr Vsrein could easily
capture the city. Police Captain Setback
says he has no fears of any thing happen

ular case, not having any authentic in
formation yet, and if he had he did not
