time it was thought that that place
would be something great in the
future. Although misfortune came
to lessen the enjoyment Of the later
years of his life, he never lost the
respect of those who knew him,
and was treated as deferentially as
though he We're yet possessed of
wealth and power instead Of being

The Bond Injunction.

The injunction case of Alderman
Bolton against the city to prevent is
sue of $3.50, 900 bonds was argued be-
fore Judge King yesterday and argu-
ment continued today. City attorney
opened the argument on demurrer to
plaintiffs petition. He contended
that the amended charter of 1889 was
law, before the vote authorizing issue
of bonds was taken; that the resOlu-
ton of council was sufficient authori-
ty for such election, following the ar
gument made before Judge Noonan
in vacation when the appointment of
receiver was denied.
Plaintiffs attorney argued as for
merly the constitutionality OF the leg
islative act granting new charter;
contend that the error of the engross-
ing clerk in changing the per cent
sinking fund to 10 per cent is fatal,
and that the call for the election was
irregular. Judge King evidently dis
sented from the view of the plaintiff s
attorney concerning the error of en-
crossing clerk and did not think the
court could 60 behind the law.
This morning the case still occupied
the atter ton of the court and no de-
cision has yet been reached.

Timing Railroad Speed.
sScribuer's Magazine.

sScribuers Magazine.
We can not tell from the time tables
how fast we travel. The schedule
time does not indicate the delays that
must be made up by spurts between
stations. The traveller who is curious
20 know just how fast he is going, and
likes the stimulus of thinking that he
is in little danger, may find amuse-
ment In taking the time between mile
posts; and when these are not to be
seen, he can often get the speed very
accurately by counting the rails pass
ed in given time. This may be done
by listening attentiyely at an open
window or door. The regular clicks
of the wheels over the rail Joints can
usually soon be singled out from the
other noises and counted. The num-
Der of rail lengths passed in twenty
seconds, Is almost exactly the number
OF miles run in an hour. But if one
wants to get lively sense of what it
means to rush through space at fifty
or sixty miles an hour, he must get
on locomotive. Then only does he
begin to realize what trifies stand be-
tween him and destruction.
A few weeks ago lady sat an
hour in the cab of locomotive haul
ing fast express train over a noun
tain road. She saw the narrow,
bright lines of the rails and the slen-
der points of the switches. She
heard the thunder of the bridges, and
saw the tracks shut in by rocky
bluffs, and new perils suddenly re-
vealed as the engine swept around
sharp curves. The experience was
to her magnificent, but the sense of
danger was almost appalling. To
have made her experience complete
she should have taken one engine
ride on dark and rainy night. In
n daylight ride on locomotive we
come to realize how slender is the
rail and how fragile its fastenings
compared with the ponderous ma
chine which they carry. We see
what a trifiing movement of the
switch makes the difference between
life and death. We learn how short
the look ahead must often be, and
how close danger sits on either hand.
But it is only in night ride that we
learn hSw dependent the engineer
must be after all upon the faithful
vigilance of others. The headlight
reveals a few yards of glistening rail
and the ghOstly telegraph poles aud
switch targets. Were a switch open,
a rail taken up, or q pile of ties on
the track we could not possibly see
the danger in time 10 stop.

From the Dallas News.
Goodyear, Cook & Dillon's MINISTRIES
closed their Dallas engagement to an
other large audience last night. The
audience was quite appreciative and
the applause as liberal as OH the first
night, and the programme was as
carefully rendered in it's entirety.
The company appears to cater to 1.-The
better element" and it is to their
credit that their humor is bright and
sparkling without being broad or Of
tensiye. Goodyear and Edwards are
very funny comedians of an entirely
different school, the former OF the
George Wilson and the latter of the
McAndrews or Luke SchOolcraft type.
The vocal solos are choice and the
voices good. Mr.. Ellsworth Cooks So
prano being quite remarkable Char
les Schilling's musical act is new in
makeup and performance and in
tensely amusing. The Leech broth
ers do a very neat song and dance,
and the Nichols brothers are very
clever acrobats. Altogether the pro-
gramme is sufficiently varied to suit
the tastes of all and to prevent any
thing like monOtony, and should they
return they would be certain of a
hearty welcome.-At Grand Opera

A BLOODY RECORD
DISCLOSED BY MRS. HARGROVE'S
MURDERER.

Jim Brown, alias Elsy, alias Will
liams, now in the Birmingham, Ala,
Jail, on last Friday cleared up the
mystery which has surrounded the
murder of ]. W. Meadows, who was
killed in January last, near that
place. Jim Brown or Ben FL
sy is the negro who three weeks ago
assaulted and robbed Mrs. j. U.
Lundy in her store in Birmingham,
and who is wanted in Cobb county
for the murder of Mrs. Hargrove.
and in Atlanta for shooting police
man Veal, for burglary and other
crimes. -Four negroes were arrest
ed in Birmingham for the murder of
Meadows, and Brown or Elsy, with
out knowing of these arrests, stated
in u confession that he was assisted
In the murder and robbery of Mead
oWs Dy the tour negro men now In
Jail there. He told the names of
the negroes and where they lived.
Elsy, in his confession, says he
found Meadows drunk in a saloon
on the night of the murder. Seeing
Meadows with gold watch and a
large sum of money, he secured the
assistance Of the other negroes, and
they induced their victim to 60 with
them to the spot where he was muir
dered, which is about two miles
from Birmingham. This murder
was one of the mysteries which BAT
fed the entire detective force of the
city. Meadows bodyIwas not found
until four weeks after the crime,
and it was then supposed to be the
body of Dick Thompson, a missing
railroad detective, until Thompson
was heard from at Thomasville, Ga.
1t is for this murder, Brown or
Elsey is held in Birmingham, and
for which he will doubtless be hung.
In that event Mrs. Hargrove's muir
der will be avenged.

and daily does of quinine, that was forced
down the threats of sufferers from all ma

with its mild, soothing action now holds
