ATLANTA,S RIFLES.
The First Lieutenant Resigns and the
Captain Will Do So.


ATLANTA, Ga, Nov. 1S-First Lieuten-
ant F. s. Spencer Of the Atlanta Rifles, the
crack company OF the city. sentfn his resig-
nation to-day. Behind the resignation is a
military sensation which involves the Rifles,
and may develop into a complete disruption
OF the company. The resignation of Macon
b. Spencer, captain of the Rifles and a
brother to Lieut.. Spencer, is expected to
follow. All the trouble grew out OF a court
martial, now pending, in which Privates
Appler and Mcmillan are the principals
Capt Spencer Is q popular young
gentleman of high standing, and is a rigid
disciplinarian. He charges that the privates
mentioned refused to obey his orders, and
therefore he had them arraigned under
court-marsial.
GROWING IN THE RANKS.
In nisdiately there was much dissension
among the members, and for some time the
armory has been practically deserted. To
day a prominent member said the Rifles
would go to pieces unless the looked-fOr
change in administration comes very soon.
Capt AID Lieut. Spencer are both fine Of
hcers, and it is a public surprise that they,
or either OF them, should be the cause of
dissension in the Rifles, whose brilliant
record is largely due TO them. Lieut.. Spen-
GERS resignation went to the captain, and, it
is said, that as soon as it is accepted, Capt.
Spencer will forward his own to Lieut.. Col.

Bookkeeping for Farmers.

There Is no patent on anything in the
shape of bee hive that a farmer needs.
L do not mean to say, writes a correspond
ent of Nebraska Farmer, that there are no
patent hives, for there are a great many:
but the most of them are not worth to the
farmer the lumber out of which they are
made. Whenever a man begins to
talk patent bee hives, or farm right to
manufacture them, the farmer will save a
great deal of time and money if he will
suddenly remember that he has some ur-
gent business that he must see to at once.
He should rake it point never to be talk
ed into buying patent hive While he
does not need patent hive, he does
need good, improved, hanging frame
hive, upon which there is no patent. A
good hive is the first requisite to success in
beekeeping. A hive to fill the require
ments should be simple, have every frame
movable, and give ease of access to every
part. Neither should it be too expensive.
There is not enough in the business to
Justify an expensive hive. The days for
IS patent hives have gone by, and as |
said before, the farmer has no use for them.
Bees will store just as much honey in
nail keg as they will in the most improved
hive. But the trouble with the nail keg
Is, you cannot get tho honey without de-
stroylng the bees. If you do this, and
have more honey than you want for
family use, it is in such a shape that it is
hard to find market for it. Or, if you
do, it will be at greatly reduced rates.

FARM NOTES.

AS rule there is but little gain in at
tempting to help chickens out of the
shells; the much better plan is to let them
alone.
With nearly or quite all breeds of
poultry those of the same color should be
used so that the progeny will be uniform
in size and color.
This is the season when the farmer
should be sure to keep ahead of his work,
instead of letting it get the advantage of
him.
Thinning and transplanting should be
attended to in the garden before the gard
en- becomes dry again and the hurry of
haying interferes.
A rich soil is not suitable for the
growth Of the larger kinds of fruit, as it
promotes too rapid growth of wood, and
makes the same thereby tender and more
brittle.
Many farmers make war on the bum

The Girl Who is Always Welcome

Ruth Ashmere, writing on subjects of a
special interest to the girls, has this to
say:
The welcome guest is the girl who,
knowing the hour for breakfast, appears
at the table at the proper time, does not
keep others waiting, and does not get in
the way by being down half an hour be-
fore the hostess appears. !
The welcome guest is the girl who, if
there are not many servants in the house,
has sufficient energy to take care Of her
own room while one is visiting; and if there
are people whose duty it is, she makes
that duty as Light as possible for them, by
putting away her own belongings, and in
this way not necessitating extra work.
The welcome guest is the one who
knows how to be pleasant to every mem
Der of the family, and who yet has tact
enough to retire from a room when some
special family affair is under discussion.
The welcome guest is the one who does
not find children disagreeable, Or the var
ious pets of the household things to be
dreaded.
The welcome guest is the one who, when
her hostess is busy, can entertain herself
with a book, bit of sewing, or writing Of
letter.
The welcome guest is one who, when her
friends come to see her. does not disar
range the household in which she is stay
ing that she may entertain them.
The welcome guest is the one who, hav-
ing broken the bread and eaten the salt OF
her friend, has set before her lips seal
of silence, so that when she goes from the
house she repeats nothing but the agree.
able things that she has seen.
This is the welcome guest, the one to
whom we say goodbye with regret, and

POLITICAL CAPITAL.
Democrats Will Try to Make it by Inves-
tigation.

A leading Washington democrat who is
well qualified to speak of the purposes of
his party says that it is the intention of
the democratic leaders In the next house
of representatives TO have two cardinal
points in their policy. The first will be
to have a series of Investigations which
will cover every branch of the public SER
vice, out of which they expect to make a
great deal of political capital. The Sec
ond is to prevent any positive legislation
81 that the record Of the democrats will be
co!o1Iess with respect TO positive measures
10 be enacted in the next congress. They
will hope TO rely upon the record which
tie party has already made as to legisla-
ton. The program for the continuous
series of Investigations is always one
which attracts extremely partisan demo-
Gratis and those who are new to congress
sional matters If the democratic leaders
are to be believed, the ffty-second con-
gress, as far as the house is concerned,
will be repetition of the forty sixth con
gre3s. Inc politicians do not have long
memoriea. If they did, they would dis
cover tn : in adopting a policy of that
sort it would be we'll to consider whether
or not the democrats made much from
their Investigations in the forty-sixth
congress. They had, it is true, as their
leading card the investigation of the Pot
ter committee but that committee is only
remembered for the disclosures with re-
spect to thei cipher kilograms And the
country long since passed upon the cues
ton whether or not the cipher kilograms
hurt the republicans party as much as
they did the democrat party

REDUNDANT ADMISSION.
An Anti-McKinley Paper is Forced to Tel
the Truth.


The Mckinley tariff on chinaware is 60
per cent. of its value, the same as the old
tariff. I'm common earthenware the duty
is 25 per cent, showing fair discrimina-
ton in favor of the article most in popu-
lar USE But finer ware, called china, y
and manufactured in France and Ger
many, is being rapidly cheapened in price,
and except for the tariff would come into
more general rule,
Now we learn from an anti. Mckinley
newspaper that an extensive plan to man
ufacture the style of chinaware known as
"HavilaLd" and of simil..r grades is to be
established near Chicago. The enterprise
will require an investment of some So,
100000, and will give employment to
$500 people. 1t will make market for
farm and garden produce and for other
necessaries of life, including manufactures
that are turned out here under the pro
tective policy,
If one mandatory of chlnaware is
established here, others will follow.
Competition will reduce prices, and, IL
the end, as has been the case with all othel
protected industries, the manufactured
article will be sold as cheap to our people
as In free trade countries, while higl
wages and other sources of general pros
pelity will be maintained.

BAGPIPES SCARE WOLVES.
The Charms of the Beautiful Bagpipe Fail
to Soothe these Beasts.

Scottish Canadian.
An amusing episode of the Peninsular
war seems to prove that even the charms
of our beautiful national bagpipes fail
to soothe these savage beasts. 1t happen
ed that while one of the Highland
regiments was marching across desolate
part of Spain, one of the pipers, for some
inexpllcable reason, found himself separ-
ated from his comrades. Hating on a
lonely plain ae sat down to eat his break
fast, when, to his horror, he saw wolves
approaching. When they came very
near, he flung them all the food he had
with him, fully conscious, however, that
this meagre meal would not stay their adj
vance for many seconds. With the calm
ness of desperation he then said: ''As
we've had the meat, yell haze the music,
too and thereupon he proceeded to blow
up his chanter. No sooner lid his IN
welcome guests hear the first ''shrill' OF
the pipes than they turned in wild terror
a0d fed as fast as their long legs would
carry them. Said the piper: Had
thocht We were so fond O the music We wac
haze gotten it afore meat instead O after!
Then hungrily he went his way, not fo",
&c tting from time to time to blow blast
so wild and shriil as might effect''ally
scare 9ny prowling foes.
