The other day Atlanta, Ga, took
bids for the water works pipes and the
South beat the North. The bids were
$27.a4 per ton by the Howard Har-
rison Iron Company OF Bessemer, Ala
The next lowest. S2a.95, was by the
Anniston Pipe Works. Other oios'
giving only the names of cities, were
as follows: Philadelphia, SIS ; Lou
isville, sa3.So; Cincinnati, $aS; Phil
adelphia, sss.o1, and Burlington, n
IT,, $2o.71. This, with the exception
Of one Philadelphia concern, which
was s2.76 higher, the Northern bid
ders were, IS to 81 ton higher than
the Bessemer company. AS Atlanta
has about {, 900 tons to buy the differ
ence Of the whole bid is from 10000
to $4,000. Such facts are very en-
couraging and show that the Soutf

Relation OF the Left Hand to Health
In connection with the subject OF the
duality of the brain there Is one point OF
great Importance about which can only
saw e few words. 1t is that we have .
great many motor elements in our BRAIN
and our spinal cord, which we neglect
absolutely TO educate. Such is the case
particularly with the elements which
serve the movements of the left hand.
Perhaps, however, fathers and mothers
will be more ready to develop the natg-

Politically, Mr.. Dixon is fully in
sympathy with the common people,
even to the extent of declaring himself
in favor of Christian Socialism. This
shows that his heart is in the right
place, whatever may be the thought
of the wisdom of such a choice.
1t is far easier to correct a mistake
of the judgment. when the heart
beats high and quick for humanity,
than to change the errors of heart
and brain when an austere ortho-
doxy petri6es with the belief that the
smallest sin deserves unmitigated pun
ishment.
In style of oratory Mr.. Dixon more
nearly resembles Patric Henry, we
think, than any man of the century.
His style is suited to great subjects
and great occasions. while theological
air-splitting does not suit his eapacf-
ty. He was born for larger effort, and
the opportunity before him is ample
That he may be faithful to the hsghcs'
possibilities Of his endowments and the
| pressing demands of the age in which
he lives, is the anxious thought O
many who have watched this phenomi
nal character with close attention.

WIDOW DOlGOROuKI.
State Secrets Revealed by the Morganatie
Wife of tho Late Czar.

| State Secrets Revealed by the Morganatie
Wife of the Late Czar.
Princess Dolgorouki, the morganatic
wife Of the late Gar, has, according to
an Odessa telegram, just published her
memoirs in Russia. Every available
copy, however, has been pounced upon
immediately by the police. In this in.
teresting volume the Princess gives a
graphic account of what happened on
the very eve of the assassination of the
ill-fated Alexander III. During the
evening before the tragic event took
place she was in room adjoining that
in which the police report for the day
was being submitted to the emperor.
When Colonel Standen mentioned that
soldiers in whom more trust could be re.
posed had been stationed on guard at
the palace, the Czar displayed great ir-
ritation, exclaiming, "Whatl am sur
rounded by traitors even in my own
house? If such be the case, the most
ragged beggar is happier than l. Well,
1 shall appeal to the people, dwell
among them, and show them that / have
confidence in them and do not fear the
cowardly assassins who dare not emerge
from their obscurity!" His Majesty
then went into the room where
the Princess was sitting, and said that
he had decided on going to Vienna,
although the Russians were hated there
since his father died. He would settle
some business with the Emperor of Aus
tria which could not be intrusted to
third party. Soon afterward, at midnight,
the unhappy Emperor discovered, to his
horror, that his favorite dog Tristan
had been poisoned, and, flying again
into violent rage, he overwhelmed his
valet with abuse and threats.
The Princess had begged Alexander
Ii. not to go out on the morrow, but at
nine o'clock in the morning note was
brought to her which betrayed the nerv-
GUS agitation to which the unfortunate
monarch was prey He had begun by
saying that in conformity with her
wishes and his promise he would remain
at home, but had scratched out the
words, and had written, inst ad, that he
needed air and exercise, and would go
out soon, adding that he would bring
back the Grand Duke Sergius to lunch
with her. The Princess was making
preparations to accompany or follow tho
Gear, when looking out of the window
she saw the guards passing by in great
confusion. Soon afterward she heard of
the Emperor's death. She hurried to
the Winter Palace and threw herself on
the mangled and bleeding corpse. Then
Alexander III. told her that his father
had uttered her name with his dying
breath. 1t is to be hoped that trans
lation of those memoirs will soon make
its appearance, as the Princess was in
position to throw light on many politi-
,al puzzle,
