THE suB-rKEAsuRy BILL.
Farmers Alliance Men Before the
Ways aud Means Committee.


WAsuISoroN, May 10.---The hcsringof
the Farmers Alliance representatives
was continued by tho ways and means
committee to-day. Livingtone, the ma
tional lecturer of tho organization taxi
ing up the argument, lie quoted Presi-
dent Llncoln's prophecy that corpora
tions would be entbroned. and that the
property OF the country would be con-
centratcd, and tho republic itself over
thrown, as others had been. One-twen-
tieth of the people owned ihrec-ffths Of
the property. If congress refused TO
provide for the sub-treasury plan, then
let II remove the restrictions hedging In
the national banking system. The
farmers would care nothing about trusts
and tho concentration of money II they
could hold their crops In treasures
and were not compelled TO sell them at
stated times. IL would be God send
to the country TO pass the sub-treasury
bill, for tlle reason, IL no other, that
there would not be a bucket-shop left in
the United States. The day OF specula-
ton in crops would be done away with
and the producer and consumer would
be brought together. Sixteen millions
would bull" ..ii the warehouses the alli-
ance wanted. What good were river

BUILD A HOME.
The softepinE Innucacs of Flowers
and Trees.


fColfax Conmoner.
There is nothing that so greatly
conduces to happiness or is so cnlcu-
lated to promote habits of thrift
and economy ~ the owning of the
home In which one lives, nor IL
there anything so demorallzing as
to live from year to year In a rented
house. Tho man who has . homo
of his own is almost u component
part of the prosperity Of the coun-
try. Hs has sense OF perlnanency,
and under his own vine and fig
tree feels u greater interest In the
progress of the nation than he who
rent n house from tlmo 10 time,
LOOKING forward from one s.moving z
day" TO another, and feeling always
like mere sojourncr, II spllrrim
and a stranger, as IL were.
The strongest feeling of a mans
strange and complex nature Is the
love Of home, and this feeling. uu-
satisfied as 1t must ever he with a
rented house, which Is no home ut
all, but,a mere place OF Temporary
abode, tends to his disad vantage
and unhappincss. So long US lie
lives in u rented house he hardly
thinks 1t worth while to buy new
furniture or make any effort to
beautify the place; his wife and
daughters feel no announcement to
plant flowers, and the Children
grow up amid bleak and unpleasant I
surrounding, with none of The soft-
ening and refining influences Of q
home life. y
Is not this demoralixing? How
different when he owns q home.
What interest Is taken in every
trivial detail, and how absorbing
the question OF shade trees, flower
beds and tho proper method of
training vines. There IL something
to live for, something TO plan and
ccononizc for and to take nn inter
est In; every dollar that can be
spared goes to beautify and a(soril
the home; the family, In the unity
Of their work and purposes, atu
drawn closer together, and olsvatod

Christopher Miscally's Suit Against
the City and suburban Railway.
The session of the city court was taken I'D
yesterday by damage suit in which Chris
topher C. Miscally obtained a verdict for
$3.50 and costs against the City and Subur-
ban Street Railway Company.
The allegation and testimony Of Mr.. Mis-
cally was that on last Christmas day he had
been to Tybee, and returning on the Liberty
street line was transferred to one of the
Whitaker street cars, and that when be
reached his destination on Jones street the
conductor failed to halt the car as directed.
and in alighting from the car while it was
in motion projecting bolt in the car steps
caused him to be thrown violently on the
ground, spraining his ankle and causing
other injuries to him in the way
of severe bruises, for all of which.
including mental and physical suffer-
ing, medical attention aud nursing. he
sued for S., 900 damages. The only direct
testimony for the plaintiff was his own, but
as the railways line of defense tended to
impute insobriety to the plaintiff at the
time of the accident, the plaintiff introduced
ample evidence in rebuttal to offset the
charge.
An event the day before the trial was
of really more interest to Mr.. Miscally than
his damage suit, as he was made the happy

THE LIGHTS TURNED ON.
The Southern Part of the City nlumi-
mated by the New System.

The Southern Part Of the City ulumi-
mated by the New System.
The first and second loops of the half arc
system Of electric lights had the electricity
turned on last night, and no tower lights
burned south Of Liberty street. All that
part Of the city north Of Liberty street was
illuminated by the old system.
There were 100 lamps burning south Of
Liberty street, known as half arc lamps,
and the southern portion Of the city was
generally brighter than under the tower
light system, but when the trees are ia full
foliage the lights will be found wholly in
adequate for the purposes Of a perfect illu-
mutation
The location of the new lamps has been
heretofore detailed in the MORNING News.
They have been placed with view of light
iHg the streets to the best possible advan-
tage, and wherever 1t has been found prac-
ticsble they have been placed in the center
of the street crossings so that the light may
illuminate the streets from the four points
of the compass. Abercorn, Whitaker and
West Broad streets show up well under the
new arrangement, and a general improve
mont is noticeable in almost every direc-
ton. One or two Of the towers in the
southern part of the city are required, how
ever, to give a wide illumination.
North Of Liberty street. under the old sys-
tenn there are about seventy lamps in SER
vice, but that portion of the city is to be
lighted by 100 lamps, and it is expeeted that
by the next full moon the Brush company
will be in readiness to turn on the current
in the territory now lighted only by seventy
lamps.
