Not Applicable to Atlanta,

ATLANTh. Ga. Aug. 13.-There is going
to be no trouble in Atlanta this fall
about moving the cotton crop. The
startling reports sent out by Bradstreets
to the effect that there would likely be a
crisis in cotton affairs at the South be
cause OF the inability or unwillingness of
the banks to advance sufficient money
to move the crop have no application to
the situation here. Whatever NAV be
the arguments for the government,
Atlanta and this region need fear moth

MUD CAKES.

/ don't see why the big folks, all
Need to go to cooking school,
For it's easy enough to make cake,
If you make it by this rule:
First, you must have an apron
That YOU'RE not afraid to hurt,
For in this recipe we use,
For flour, sifted dirt.
Then dig, with an iron spoon,
A hole in the cool, dark ground,
And put in dirt and water,
Stirring it round and round.
And then handful of pebbles,
You'd best put into the dough.
What are these for? In this recipe,
Pebbles are raisins, you know.
And when you get it all thick enough
You make it into a cake,
Then put it on a nice, clean board
And set in the sun to bake.
Dear mel I'd most forgot to say
You must sprinkle with sugar Cor

Using English Coins For weights.


Many a,e the uses of money, but Mr.
Joseph Newton, late of the Royal mint
points out there is at least one use which
is not generally known. This is the
availability of coins for letter weighing
when the ordinary postal weights do MOI
happen to be at hand. Commencing
with the sovereign, this weighs a very
safe quarter ounce, for foreign postage
two equaling, of course, a half ounce
and four one ounce. The next denomi
nation, the crown piece, is just on the
right side Of one ounce in weight, and
the half crown of half an ounce. Five
separate shillings, or two shillings and a
sixpence, for the ounce and half ounce,
will do as well.
Descending from gold and silver to
hard working bronze, it is found that
either three penny pieces, or five half
pence, or 10 farthings will respectively
make up one ounce. Another popularity
in regard to the halfpenny is noted by
Mr.. Newton. That is its diameter, which
is precisely one inch, SO that by using il
as a measure it will be seen that 10 half
pence laid fat and in touch are equal
to one foot and So to one yard.-Londoi

Rolln Jacquemln, Belgian by birth,
cosmopolitan by nature and soldier Of

Rolin Jacquem1n, Belgian by birth, a
cosmopolitan by nature and soldier of
fortune by occupation. HIS career 10
curious and checkered. Educated for the
bar, he developed taste for Rolitics and
finally ashieved the position OK minister
of the interior in the Belgian cabinet.
Deposed from Office by politica reverSes,
he took up the study of international
law and acquired some distinction in
that speciality. Financial difficulties
drove him from Belgium, and he went to
Egypt, where he had brief and unsatis-
factory career as an international lurist.
He then disappeared, and his European
friends heard no more of him for several
years, when he suddenly turned up as
minister of foreign affairs at Bangkok.
Had it not been for the possibility OF
foreign interference and for the respect
which is due to foreign commercial inter
ests in Siam. France need not have made
much ado over enforcing her claims on
fine neninsula. President Carnot has at
his command one of the finest navies in
the world and a military force that is
well nigh invincible. In view of the ever
imminent European war, it is interest
ing to note the warlike resources of
France.
In 1891 the effective strength Of the
French army under colors was sos, $3.50,
with gendarmerie of about %, 900 men.
On war footing the army numbers
nearly 1000, 900 men, with 1873, 3O1 horses
and 5000 guns. At the same date the
ironclad navy consisted of 1876 vessels
40 ironclads, 40 cruisers, Al dispatch
boats and 6 gunboats-besides q large
number of unarmored cruisers and troop
ships, with 1927 officers and 81, 935 men.
The military and naval equipment is Of
the best, and of the discipline and cour-
age of the French forces it is unneces-
sary to speak.

ADMIRAL EDGAR HuMANN.

Admiral Human was born in Paris
in 1888 and has had brilliant career
in both the diplomatic and naval service.
In 1887 he commanded the French feet
at Newfoundland and bore a conspicu-
GUS part in the settlement of the fisheries
dispute with England in that year.
The English fleet in Asiatic waters is
much more powerful than that of France
and is particularly strong in small gum
boats for river service.
It is curious fact that France was
the first European nation to establish
diplomatic relations with the land of the
white elephant. Louis XIV in the sew
enteenth century sent thither an embas-
sador and received Sianese embassy
with great honors at Versailles. Louis
sought to convert the king Of Siam to
Christianity. Unfortunately the present
mission of the French in Bangkok is less
philanthropic. @. c. HUNT.

TO Haworth Across tae Wild Yorkshire
nroors = Lodging In Deserted Hut.
Hours That Passed on Leaden Wings.
wheeling Under Difficulties.
Especial Correspondence
HAwoRrH, England, July Give left
the CITY of York, bound for Haworth,
distance of over SO miles, early on a
bright July morning and reached Harro-
gate soon after noon. Stopping for din
ner and an hours rest, quizzed the ge-
NAL landlord about the remainder of our
tourney. ssIs It Haworth ye want to get
to? TITS good thutty mile from ere, is
Haworth. but yell soon make it on them
wheels. Go on yon road straight away
over the moors. 'Tis bit lonesome, is It,
all the way. There's ills, too, but for
every oop there's a down, an it's your
ouickest way to Haworth."
So. rested and refreshed, we oiled our
"silent steeds," waved {. friendly adieu
to the ssrnaster and misses" and the re-
mainder of the household, who had gath
cred to see us of, and were on our way
to cross the Yorkshire moors, of which
we had read so much and knew so little.
The road was fairly good, the sun shone
brightly, and the air was soft and cool.
This combination could not fail, as ev-
cry cyclist will understand, to keep us
in good spirits as we spun swiftly along.
Gradually the way became more and
more lonely. Hills and mountains
stretched away as far as the eye could
reach-not wooded ike our own, but
bare and desolate and rock crowned.
We pushed on and on, rounding every
curve IN the vain hope that something
better would meet our eyes, but only
more cliffs and hills, more mountains
and valleys, confronted us.
Finally we come in sight of deserted
little hut. 1t was directly opposite
us on the cliff across the valley. To
reach it we must Chamber down the hill
on which the road ran, cross the wide
intervening valley and climb the steep
raountainside to this forlorn looking ref
uge in a lonely spot.
For moment we are undecided as to
which we prefer, complete drenching
or shelter from it in that desolate house.
The dense black clouds which now
covered the sky, the muttering thun-
der and the vivid lightning decided us,
and as few drops of rain splash in our
faces we climb and slide down the hill
side, through the valley and up to the
little hut on the opposite side. 1t was
