THINKS THEY WON'T VOTE 1T.
Mr.. Rountree Thinks the Terminal
Would Prefer to Retain the Present
Directors.

Mr.. Rountree Thinks the Terminal
Would Prefer to Retain the Present
Directors.
Mr.. Daniel w. Rountree, who repre-
sents Mrs. Rowena Clarke and other Cen
trial railroad stockholders, was in the
city yesterday on his return to Atlanta.
Mr.. Rountree is at present the leading
attorney representing the stockholders in
the appeal from the decision of Justice
jackson with regard to the voting of the
Richmond Terminals $4,000 shares of
stock, which is now in the hands of the
court of appeals at New Orleans
He said yesterday that the case would
! hardly be decided before February or
| perhaps later, as the court of appeals
could hardly take it up at once, on ac-
count Of other business, and the work
! which the judges composing it have to
attend to on their respective circuits.
! This, however, he said would not prevent
| the Terminal from voting the stock at the
| January election as no supersedeas bond
| had been given, and the decree of Justice
jackson stands as if there had been no
appeal unless the court of appeals should
reverse it. The only bond given was for
| $500, simply to cover the costs of court in
the case, should it be decided against the
stockholders appealing, but this did not
| provide for supersedeas.
! MIR. Rountree, however, was of the
| opinion that the stock would not be voted.
He says there is a number of reasons for
his opinion with regard to this matter.
In the first place, he thinks the Terminal
company is fully satisfied with the pres
ent board of directors and that they don't
care to make any change Then he thinks
the Terminal would rather have some
other board than the one elected by them
to charge any mistake to, and they may
prefer at all events, he says, to wait un-
Til after the court of appeals has decided
the matter before they vote the stock, as
the road is in the hands of a receiver and
the directors have no power. Mr.. Roun-
tree leaves this morning for Atlanta.

A COUPLE OF CHRISTMAS FIRES
Both OF Them distinguished With
Little Damage.

There was quite blaze in the office of
the Independent, at Bay lane and Dray-
ton street, about / o'clock yesterday af-
ternoon, and the department was called
out by telephone.
It was discovered that the building had
caught fire from a lot of old papers and
trash in the hall on the second floor, and
there was considerable blaze when the
department arrived The fire was ex-
tinguished in short order, however, but
left its marks behind in some serious
damage to the furniture and building
At $3.50 o'clock yesterday afternoon an
alarm of fire was sent in from box No.
4S, on Waldburg street near Price. En-
CINE Companys Nos.4 and and Truck No
2 responded. The fire was in the house
of Mr.. Mahon, foreman of Wallis mill.
The ceiling had caught fire from stove
pipe and large hole was burned. The
loss is slight.

BOYS WILL BE BOYS.
An Electric Wire Pole on the Haber-
sham Street Road Fired.


Last night about $3.50 O'Clock, in some
way or other an electric wire pole became
ignited in Troup square. The boys of the
square had built their fire about eight
feet away from it, and the heat of the
burning rosin, drawing the sap from the
wood, had in time ignited it. Assistant
Chief Munro seeing the blaze, sent to
headquarters for a large hand extin-
guisher, by the aid of which the fire was
put out The boys were then made to
build their fire in the center of the square,
and the fun was over. The pole while
burning was pretty sight, wrapped as
IT was, from top to bottom in sheet Of

On West Broad and East Broad streets

There were crowds of people on the
streets, and everybody was out for jolly
time.
The strain of excitement which begun
IN the early morning was too great to be
kept up all night as many thought it
would, and by II o'clock the noise began
70 die away and the crowds to dispense.
AT II o'clock only the bang of an occa-
sional cannon cracker could be heard and
shortly thereafter the usual peaceful
quiet Of the early morning hours pre-
vailed.

AProphet That Failed.

The ladies that were with the Gould
party-Mrs, Edwin Gould, Mrs. Shrady
and Mrs. DIR. Harris-are telling Of how
they barely escaped a couple Of wild
western adventures on the trip from
which they have just returned. AS
their private car rolled into Arkansas
the train was behind tims. If it hadn't
been, it would probably have been in
kiudling wood long before now, for Just
a couple of hours ahead of them cloud
burst and cyclone came along and wiped
everything movable off the face of that
part Of Arkansas. When this story is
told, the Goulds chuckle as they think Of
State Treasurer Stevens of Missouri.
The world knows how Mr.. Stevens was
on train which was robbed.
That afternoon the Gould train stood
in the st. Louis station on the next
track TO Mr.. Stevens train. Mr.. Stevens
paid the Goulds call in their car and
as he was leaving assured the ladies they
could subdue their fears as to train rob-
bers, ''as," said he, there are no such
things now in Missouri as train robbers.
You're safe enough" Mr.. Stevens step
ped into his own train, which went the
way the Goulds had just come, and in
less than two hours was stopped by train
robbers. The Goulds went in an oppo-
site direction, and the next morning the
first thing they heard of was Mr.. Stew

Mrs. Clement scott's Repartes.

Mr.. Scott's impressions of our country
have been highly favorable, and it is
presumed that, having become SO closely
acquainted with us, both he and his
charming wife will revisit us often. Fa-
vored with keen sense of the humorous,
they have fully enjoyed the American
character in its various and varying
phases. Not all their experiences, how
ever, have been agreeable. For example,
at somewhat mixed dinner party in
Chicago the other day they met man
and his wife representing great deal Of
money and quite as much vulgar pre-
tense. The woman wore large amount
Of jewelry, there being among other
pieces a superb design In diamonds OF
this particular ornament the wearer ap-
peared to be specially proud. and calling
attention to it she said to Mr.. and Mrs.
Scott, Il bought these diamonds in a
London shop, where they had been
pawned by some of your royalty"
This coarse if not insulting remark
did not ruffie Mr.. Scott at all, but Mrs.
Scott found it quite ont Of the question

nine way, Yes. our best people some

FrOm the aLove array Of conclusion,
more OF les current IL appears 70 THE
JoURSAL writer that oats, peas aud
clover, with sweet corn or early hsld
corn for fattenlnK, as-fieId crops, and
hogs a. stock, would be the successful
combination for next years farming.Of
perhaps the next four years. Oats sell
well on the Coast. is not so heavy to
handle a. wheat, yields twice as much
and brings nearly as much rs wheat.
IL would appear best TO keep as few
horses, COWS and sheep as possible
They consume a great deal Of feed and
bring In very little money.
Beside oats. there should be soms
good clover fields started. II stock is
kept of the first year clover does well
in Oregon. But 1t must be left to seed
down some and root well before any
stock goes onto II. Peas in small lots
Of one to i've acres. form the most yalu-
able growing feed tor pigs and shOats.
They will completely satisfy young hog
stock, when ripe need not be cut. The
hogs root over the ground and get
every last pea. The dry vines afford
excellent bedding at night. Peas make
more bone and musele than any other
feed, aud by the time they are cleaned
up the young hogs are ready to fatten.
Farmers Ia Oregon should plant
more corn. There was a time when no
one believed corn could be grown in
Northern Iowa or Minnesota. 1t was
a mistake. Those are great corn reg
Ions now. II fed green sweet corn is
splendid for young or old hogs. But
nearly ali over the Willamette valley
good corn crops can be raised. III there
is any doubt about 1t, wheat will fatten
hogs and enough should be sOwn to
supply the family with -four at all
events, II takes several years to get
rugged up right for raising hogs; good
fences must be built as there is hog
law In Oregon. But profit and lOss
long ago decided that fences for hogs
pay. Oats for grain, PEAS aud clover
for young pigs, corn for fAttening,
wheat and potatoes for the family.
There IL an outline for farming which
can be safely recommended. Ofcourse, 1T
II assumed that ample provision will be
made for the family supply Of fruit and
vegetables, poultry, eggs and milk.
Above all there must be intelligence
and cultivation Of the reading habit.
To attempt farming without intelli-
genee nowadays is Ike trying to do
business without advertising. Tne re-
suit In either case Is au accumulation
Of dead capital In unmaIketable or un-
profitable products that will swamp
any business. To raise improbable
crops Is sure bankruptcy to the farm.
