The Tennessee authoress, VIII Allen
Dromgoole, has hobby. 1t is walking
'tramping, - she calls it Nine or ten
miles of mountain walking is her daily
constitutional when at her country
home. A short, ordinary skirt, a blouse
waist and a soft, gray felt hat with a
history form her walking costume. The
history part comes in with the only or
nament of the hat-a bullet hole of
goodly size. Miss Drumgoole has made
a study of the coal mines of the Tennes-
see mountains When the war with the
miners began on Coal creek, she hurried
up there to see all she could of it. ssEv-

nice TO me-, she adds in telling the
story, but if wanted to see things for
myself could not be sheltered any more
than they were. / messed with them,
and one evening at supper a bullet went

Lieutenant Blank of the army is feet 4
inches tall and tips the scale at $50 pounds.
He was stationed for many years in Wash
ington, attached to scientific bureau of
the government, his writings being well
known to the scientific world.
Much of his writing was done evenings
at home, and he would sometimes carry
home necessary reference books and return
them to his Office at will. One morning he
gathered together several, none of them
very small, and putting them under his
arm started for his Office.
In the course of his walk he was brought
face to face with very black little negro,
who, with arms akimbo, chin dropped and
his shining black eyes filed with wonder,
bad planted himself directly in front of
Lieutenant Blank.
Before the gentleman had time to do
more than take in this apparition OF dark
ness the little 'spickaninny" had thrown
back his head, so to be able TO gaze up
into the lieutenant's face, and in a tone of
comical amazement exclaimed:

Atlanta women organize.

About 30 of the leading women of
this city interested in church and benev-
client work met recently and organized
a Woman Suffrage association. Mrs.
McLendon, a member of an aristocratic
family, was elected president. Their
idea is to push the question of woman
suffrage so as to have a good report to
make to the national association, which
holds its next meeting in this city.
Within a month there will be woman
suffrage associations organized in every
city in the state. The preachers of this
city have taken a decided stand against
the movement, which only challenges
she opposition of the women. Atlanta
