The New York Times has this to say of
the Central's reorganization: members Of
the Georgia Central reorganization COM
mittee in this city say that they do not
understand the object of the independent
movement started by the stockholders Of
the Southwestern railroad of Georgia. AS
indicated in the dispatches from Georgia,
the Southwestern stockholders approve the
scheme Of recognizing the Georgia Central
property, but they desire q guarantee Of
STA on each share of their stock that &C.
cepts the scheme. The stockholders of
the Southwestern of Georgia evidently do
not understand our scheme said member
of the reorganization committee yesterday.
"A strong syndicate has furnished guar
antee for the reorganization Of the Georgia
CentraPs main line, which will be carried
out, no matter what action is taken by
holders of underlying liens There is good
reason to believe that this reorganization Is
undertaken in harmony with the Louisville
and Nashville interests, consequently the
latter company is not likely to become
competitor at any foreclosure sale of branch
or controlled lines. The reorganization of
the Richmond Terminal system by Drexel,
Morgan 81 Co. will undoubtedly tend to
bring about a satisfactory settlement Of
Georgia Central troubles"

An Alligator'R Nest.

Alligators' nests resemble haycocks
more than anything else to which they
can be compared. They average about
A feet in height and about feet In d.
ameter and are constructed Of grasses
and herbage. First the mother gator
deposits one layer Of eggs on mortar
like floor, and having covered this with
a stratum Of mud and herbage about 8
inches thick lays another set Of eggs
upon that, and so on to the top, there
being commonly from 100 to 200 eggs In
u nest. With their tails the parents then
beat down the tall grass and weeds to
prevent the approach Of unseen enemies.
The female watches her eggs until they
are Matched by the heat of the sun and
then takes her brood under her own care,
defending them and providing for their
subsistence.
DR.. Lutzemburg of New Orleans once
packed one Of these nests for shipment
to st. Petersburg, but the young hatched
out before they were started on the long
voyage and were kept about the doc
tors premises, running all over the house,
up and down stairs, whining like young
puppies.-Harrison's Monthly.

A Radical Reform.

At the last dinner of the Dartmouth
club Professor Hardy described the only
serious collision he had ever had with
any member of his many classes.
An undergraduate came into the lec-
ture room one day clad in an outra-
geously wild and woolly costume-to wit,
cowhide boots with trousers tucked into
their tops, flannel shirt, no necktie or
coat and only one suspender. Professor
Hardy, after the close Of the recitation,
spoke to him about his attire, rightly
enough thinking that the principles Of
ethics were quite as important as those
of mathematics.
The next time the class met the young
man appeared armed cap-a-pie in what
MIR. Hardy called 'all the concomitants
of modern civilization"-dress suit, pat
ent leather shoes, white tie, boutonniere
and, in short. all the ''fixings."
81 had never seen," said Mr.. Hardy,
"a more remarkable instance Of turning
the other cheek when the one had been
smitten."
However, the young man probably
felt, as few minutes afterward he stood
at the blackboard endeavoring to explain
a somewhat advanced problem which
the professor craftily set for him, and
which in the best of circumstances was
likely to consume considerable amount
of time, that evening clothes were not
very we'll adapted to the ordinary affairs
of this workaday world.-Boston Her

A Good Memory.

Mrs. Robinson, who keeps cigar
stand in the business part of Chicago,
has a memory that would do credit to
the best detective in the country. A
year ago q fellow bought few cigars
from her and rendered $50 bill in pay
ment. She made the change, when he
cleverly palmed a $40 bill and claimed
that she had given him that much too
little She gave him the $40, but when
she made up her cash she found that she
was just that $40 short. A few days ago
the same man came to her stand, and
calling for cigar laid down $40 bill.
She knew him at glance, and promptly
sweeping the bill into her cash drawer
told him that they were even. He de-
manded an explanation, and she remind
ed him of the transaction of a year ago.
He protested that it was o case of mis-
taken identity and threatened to call the
police, but she was firm, and he went
away and did not come back.-Charles-
ton News and Courier.

Tho elliott Sale.

The epoch making sale was that or the
elliott collection in 1S72-Gillott with
two IFS" and two ''t's"; "all others are
fraudulent counterfeits," as one used to
read on the steel pen boxes of other days.
"A good, homely creature was the levia-
than steel pen maker, who captivated
the great Turner in the cranlxiest of his
moods and tanned him by the music Of
crisp thousand pound notes.
What will you take for the lotr was
additionally the penman's question aa
he glanced in real awe around the great
artists studio. where paintings were
stacked as if in brokers' shop.
"Thirty thousand pounds" growled
the artist, who might have been the
brokers' man as far as appearance went.
elliott sat down to count out the notes
without another word. But Turner
stopped him. 1t was no deal, said the
artist, yet the man with the notes might
have few. And the penmaker carried
off some of the best pictures in triumph.
And now these priceless Turner's were
exhibited at Christie's, where all the
world focked to see them, with other
fine pictures Of the modern school. 1t
was Just then high tide of commercial
prosperity, and Pactolus seemed to have
been turned into the British isles, and
everybody, with the exception of an un-
important 80, 900, 900 or so, had plenty of
money, and instructed by the high prices
that ruled at the elliott sale made
haste to invest it in pictures.-All the

Lost Half a Million.

Lord Granville, who died in 1S48, with
o great reputation for courtliness Of
manner, held for many years the post Of
ambassador at Paris, and the only objec-
tion which could with any show Of plaus-
ibility be brought against him while
holding that conspicuous post was that
he was sometimes inclined to be indo-
lent. He was addicted to play and Of
ten ran over to London for little of his
favorite amusement at Crockford's,
Whites or Graham's, but almost as fire.
quently returned to the French capital
with the loss of considerable sum Of
money. He was one of the four noble
men who lost S500O00 at Crockford's in
one night, his companions in misfortune
from the ranks of peerage being Lord
Chesterfield, Lord Foley and Lord Sef-
ton. Still, in spite of all his losses, Lord
Granville left behind him no less cum

ola rimers ON the Onto nlver.

The Ohio river steamboat captain OF
35 years ago has never been equaled in
point of assumed dignity by anything ex-
cept the modern postoffice clerk and the
officers of the mosquito fleet, during
the war. When he came on board and
the mate took his place at the bell with
the roustabouts ready to haul in the
gangplank, one could imagine that about
all that was admirable in the universe
was about to move out. And it was a
quaint picture, with merry and home
like features.
The old timer along the banks of the
Ohio loves to talk of the good old days
only to bewail the degeneracy of the
times. He never tires of telling of the
exploits of the Boston, Bostona, Wild
Wagner, Lady Franklin, Alice Pike
and a score of other familiar names.
What if the old timers were profane?
The natives along the shores expected it.
When the steamer of so years ago round
ed to for the purpose of taking on wood,
the poor devil who sawed the wood just
as firmly expected cursing as he did a
salutation. The wood was too blank
long, too blank short and too blank
green. Everything was wrong. In fact,
the stamp of brutality pervaded every
transaction and all intercourse. But it
was not spirit of mutality. 1t was
their way-the way of the tribes. 1t
