formidable rival.

desperately. go away-it's too late
now!"
A moment before, and, deserted as he
believed himself to be by love and
fortune alike, he had been almost re-
signed to the strange and shadowy
future which lay before him; but now
now that he saw Matilda there in his
room, no longer scornful or Indifferent,
but pale and concerned, her pretty gray
eyes dark and wide with anguish and
fear for him-he felt all he was giving
up; he had sudden revulsion, a violent
repugnanee TO his doom. ..t d.. ..
She loved him still She had repented
for some reason. Oh! why had she not
done SO before? What could he do
now? For her own sake he must steel
himself to tell her to leave him to- his
fate, for he knew well that if the god
dess were to discover Matilda's real re-
lations to him it might cost his inno-
cent darling her life!
For the moment he rose above his
ordinary level. He lost all thought OF
self. Let Aphrodite take him if she
would, but Matilda must be saved. "Go
away" he repeated; and his voice was
cracked and harsh, under the strain OF
doing such violence to his feelings.
"Can't you see you're you're not
wantedP Oh, do go away-while you
can!"
Matilda closed the door behind her.

breath painfully, "that shall go away

you hear me? She's going, Lady Venus

She had told the man to drive to the
Southampton Row Passage at first, but
as she drew nearer she changed her
purpose; she did not like to go alone,
for who knew what she might see
there? 1t was out of the question to
expect her mother to accompany her,
but her friend and landlady would not
refuse to do so, and she drove to Mil

fiuttered and out of breath, was willing
enough to sit down in the saloon and
recover herself.

LITTLE PROGRESS MADE.

The Marietta and North Georgia Re
organization Slow Work.
Very little progress appears to have been
made in the reorganization scheme Of the
Marietta and North Georgia Railway Com
pany.
Il will be remembered that several months
ago a committee Of bankers interested was
formed to reorganizs the finances of the
company, and O scheme Of reorganization
was proposed which was approved by a
large number Of the SECURITY holders. The
scheme In full was outlined in
the MORNING News at the time. The idea
was for the stock, bond and security holders
OF all Glasses to deposit their holdings with
the committee, and upon this security
bonds would be Issued for a sufficient
amount 20 pay of the Indebtedness of the
road and complete the work under way.
Information has been received from the
committee that about one-third of the bonds
have been deposited. There are several
hundred thousand dollars Of bonds tied up
be deposited under the agreement, the party
holding them claiming the right to return
them % the parties from whom he had
originally purchased them.
There are large number Of bonds held
as collateral security by banks and other
institutions, which will be deposited, it ia
claimed, as soon as they can be reduced to
possession by the holders, which they are
now proceeding to do.
The committee requests an extension OF
time for six months to enable it to COM
plete the reorganization as undertaken and
expresses its confidence to effect 1t in that
time.
The difficulty about the reorganization,
it is said, is that there are two parties
among the bondholders, each endeavoring
to effect a reorganization according 20 its
own ideas. The foreign bondholders are
endeavortng to effect separate organizs-
ton from the New York committee OF
which II. A. V. Post Is chairman. The result
OF the efforts at reorganization now being
made, according to Savannah men who are
interested, appear very doubtful.

The telephone committee OF the trades
league last night witnessed some very inter
esting experiments with a new phone lately
constructed by resident of Darby. Thomas
Martindale, chairman OF the committee,
conducted the party, and at the place of
destination it was met by the Hon. Samuel
Crother.
For the purpose of the experiment wire
had been attached between two houses,
about three-quarters Of mile apart. To
the ends Of this wire was fixed two ordinary
looking telephone boxes with double ear
drums There was nothing to indicate any
thing unusual about the instrument.
The first experiment, which, like the rest,
proved eminently successful was to talk be-
tween the two phones, each man standing
twelve feet from the tran smltter. Every
word was heard just as distinctly as If both
were in the room together and not mile
apart
Then from the same distance the two
members Of the league whispered, and still
every word was heard. This over, q small
watch was set in motion and placed near
the transmitter. Every tick could be heard
with remarkable distinctness. After that a
small child's organ was played about thirty
yards from the phone, and every note was
carried in waves across the wire and repro
duced at the other end.
Another pleasing experiment was convey
ing sound through half a dozen men, which
passed into the drum and could be heard by
the one holding 1t. The drum was de-
tached, and two men held the points Of the
wire, several others Joined hands, two more
held the two projecting pieces Of metal
whore the points Of wire are inserted, and
another held the drum. AS soon as the
speaker at the opposite phone began, the
sound waves were carried faultlessly through
each man and passed out of the drum. Five
-
novel manner.
The next experiment was the calling OF
numbers from distance Of forty feet, and
these numbers were repeated by the one at
the other end, and then, finally, the drum
was placed upon the table, and the man at
the opposite telephone repeated the names
OF the persons present. So delicate and vet
so powerful 10 this instrument that every
name was heard clear and loud, though the
parties sat at least five feet from the drum.

Government Precautions Against the

The government is putting its officials az

It may concern: Department circular No. III.

issued when the cholera prevailed only in
Russia and the far east is now hereby amended
and 1t is ordered that collectors Of customs
shall hereafter accept such other distinction
as may be required by the nature OF special ar
ticles of merchandise and wear. provided GER
tificate is furnished by the quarantine officer at
the port of arrival that said articles cannot be
disinfected without injury after the methods
described in the circular, and that they are not
liable to convey infection, or have been dis

tinue to-day and tomorrow.
The Macon bankers have made prepara-
tions TO make things very pleasant for their
visitors. There will be a banquet to the
visiting bankers at the Hotel Lanier to-

Ria Railroad Bank of Augusta, will read
paper at the meeting, and there will be
