Tartoed women.


Those who think tatooing, as most peo-
pie do in this part of the world custom of
semi civilized countries, except in the case
of sailors, will probably be astonished to
learn that there are two sisters belonging to
one of the most prominent families in
Washington, socially as well as in official
circles, whose grandparents, on both sides,
were also for more than generation back
similarly situated in the national capt.
tai, who are really tatooed. Both
the sisters are young and one has been
married for several years and the other is
betrothed. When scarcely in their teens
these girls, just for the fun of the thing,
being of lively, daring temperament, al
lowed a sailor at the naval station, where
they were with their parents to tattoo their
cheeks with red, and it has remained in the
skin ever since, making the cheeks wear
always a peculiar hrick-dust color that no
Que has ever been deceived into believing
natural, and wonder has often been ex-
pressed that these young ladies painted
their faces in so glazing and inartistic a
manner. Few know that they are tattooed
and that they have doubtless often regret
ted bitterly the freak of their youth.

Everyday Life In a Georgia CITY.


we have several persons in Georgia who
are related to George Washington on the side
OF his mother, Mary Ball, and others related
to him on the side of his sister Elizabeth, who
married Fielding Lewis. There can be found
here in Atlanta gentlemen who are descended
from Jonathan Edwards, the great theologian
and first president of Princeton, who are
therefore of the same blood as the brilliant
and daring Aaron Burr. We can find here,
also, the descendants of Lady Godiva, the
heroine OF one of Tennysons favorite poems.
Mingling on our streets every day may be
seen men whose ancestors battled against
each other in the Wars of the Roses; crossed
swords when the English met the Scots on
Flodden Field; butchered one another under
the nicknames of Round-head and Cavalier
and wrestled in death grapple on many
cory field in France and Germany. But time
has wiped out all differences, and all look alike
and think alike.

Christened in a Brougham.

st. james Gazette.
1t is not the usual thing for babies to be
christened in private broughams, nor for
ladies to act as the officiating clergymen.
A child was christened, nevertheless, the
other evening in these circumstances, the
lady who did the deed being no other than
Nine. Marie RoZe. AS Marie Roze and her
her husband were driving away from
Liverpool theater stage door woman
thrust her baby in at the window with
request that the famous singer would
chriSten it. Nine. RoZe demurred at first,
but finally consented. She was to be
allowed to choose name. Out of compli-
ment to her husband she suggested Hen
rletta, but Col. Mapieson nervously de-
clined the honor. Ultimately the baby was
christened Marie Roze Connolly, and Col
Mapleson, feeling that he had been some
what ungalant, appeased his conscience by
making it a gift of nine and sevenpence.

Mr.. R0emer Corrected.

To the Editor of the GLOBE:
The Pioneer Press in its issue of July 2,
states that j. A. Roemer, of this place, has
been interviewed. Great Scottl and it farther
states that Mr.. Roemer is under the i'm
preston that Messrs. Kelly and Doran could
not receive twelve votes in this county, pro-
viding they were candidates for Office. If we
are not mistaken this Mr.. Roemer (who is
one of the boss kickers), aspired to the
office Of postofhce inspector not loLg since.
This, no doubt, is the reason why Mr.. Roemer
with his great legal mind has seen fit to esti-
mate Messrs. Kelly and Dorans vote in this
county so great. We are acquainted with the
people composing the Democratic party in
this county, have conversed with large
number of them relative to the appointments
and have not heard a dissenting voice only
from two or three chronic kickers. This is
without doubt the feeling entertained by
the great mass of Democratic voters through
out the county. JUSTICE.

Alex. Stephens and the Reporter

From the Atlanta Constitution
Hon. Alexander H. Stephens-pea ee to his
ashes-was the friend of the Atlanta re-
porters when he was governor. His treat
ment of scribes illustrated the way in which
he always looked after details. He never al
lowed any of the secretaries in the executive
office to give out news. Reporters were to
be sent to him. As the governor never went
near the capitol the secretaries had long
rest from reporters. Every evening about 7
O'Clock the reporters would go to the execu-
tive mansion and walk, like home folks, into
the governors room. They would find the
great commoner in his roller chair, smoking
pipe and resting from the days labors He
nearly always had some good stories to tell in
addition to the news, and the reporters would
never be anxious to leave. Often Mr. Steph-
ems would have the points of news, the ex-
ecutive orders, etc., copied and ready for the
scribes, and the entire visit of the boys would
be taken up with story telling. The reporters
had good time and got all the news. Mr.
Stephens never suppressed anything the pub
lie felt an interest in, but he always insisted
on giving the information directly from his
own lips.

His Spine Snapped.

OAKLAND, ILL.,, July 4.-The celebration
here yesterday was characterized by about
a dozen free-for-all fights and fatal acct
dent. While taking ride on suspended
wire in a basket Grant Bailey was precipi-
tated to the ground by the wire breaking.
His spine was snapped in twain, and he re-
ceived other internal injuries from which
he Will die. Tim Foley, his brother-in-law,
secured an axe and tried 10 dismantle the
swing, when he was arrested and, on his
way to the station house, resisted the
officer, who pounded him on the head with
a loaded cane. He is in critical condi-
ton. A number of other fights occurred
during the day, but none resulted fatally.

THE AMERICAN SABBATH.

If anybody doubts that Sunday is not re-

doubt ought to be removed by yesterdays
experience. 1t was the Fourth of July, a
day always ushered in with din, and cele-
brated with all the noise that is possible fol
good lungs and gunpowder to make, and
yet during the whole of yesterday an air OF
sacred stiffness reigned. 1t was the nations
birthday, yet it was the Sabbath, and was
observed as such. Respect for the day was

THE ENGLISH ELECTIONS. e
Results of the fsaIIoting UP TO Sat.
urdaV Night.

LONDON, July 4.-The GlaGstonians are
elated over the decisive character of their
victories in Dundee. They are confident
that they will maintain their hold on Scot
land. The Gladstonian agents report that
the agricultural vote is safe for the Minis
terialist party. They say that the laborers'
meetings show faith in Mr.. Gladstone and
a concurrence in the belief that the grant
ing of home rule to Ireland will relieve the
English market of Irish labor. Mr.. Jesse
Collins will stump the midland counties
and try to persuade the laborers to the con-
trary. The Gladstonian prospects in the
metropolis are dark, as the Liberal Union
lists are giving warm support to the Con-
servativeS.
BADLY TREATED.
Mr.. Reid, the Gladstonian candidate who
was defeated at Aston Manor, complains
that Mr. Chamberlain promised not to inter
fere Ill any division of Birmingham, except
MS own, but that a few days before the
polling bands of hired ruffians invaded Mr..
Relds district, Haunting Chamberlainite
literature and Mr.. Bright's and Knyocks'
speeches, grossly insulting every Glad
stonlan. and urging Liberals to support the
Tories. Mr.. Reid says his friends were mall
treated, some of them being permanently
injured, and he believed that fear of out
rage caused wholesale abstention from
voting. He also says that similar meas
ures were pursued in the border division.
The total number of votes so far cast and
counted is: Gladstone 34S. 227, opposition

NIGHT ANB MORNING.

If you saw her on the street,
You would say
Fairer damsels you may meet
Ev'ry day.
She is all of thirty-e1ght,
And her figures nothing great,
While her raimeut's out of date
And too gay.
She is somewhat commonplace
In her talk,
And there's very little grace
In her walk;
Then her intellectis weak
And her language is unique;
There is powder on her cheek
Made of chalk.
But upon the stage at night

She's being beauteous bright
And divine;
For she wears tinSel crown,
An abbreviated gown;
Ana the SWEETEST swells in town
Buy her vine.

Without exception the newspapers of the

of the most iattering nature regarding every
editor who hints that he would not refuse to
serve the ''dear people" in congress or upon

manifested is admirable, but too much of it
suggests the idea that all editors are working
on the ''you scratch my back and I'll scratch

habit of indorsing them without regard to
their qualifications is practice that should

step likely to be taken by this congress. 1t
can't be any worse than the existing law,

1t is therefore the duty of every tariff re-
former in congress to vote for it without

are that Mr.. RANDALL and the protection

have the tariff-reform Democrats vote
