The above official log was given out
last night by Assistant City Engineer
Jackman, who reported that everything
was moving off in tip top shape. and
that the drill was descending now at the
rate of thirty feet per day
There can be nothing but straight
business connected with the WELL" said
Mr. Jackman. .'You will see by exam
lining THE case that there is samples
kept of each five feet passed through
and an are privileged to come and ex-
anime it aft amy time. There is nothing
being hid. but everything is done open
and above board.
"You will see by examining the light
gray shale that it is the same stratum
which was found ait Fort Scott and
from which a firm there is making vitr1-
fled brick. There can be no question
about this. Here are both samples and

request to learn the latest concerning

will be reached next as the logs show
THAT the formation beneath the city is
different altogether from other places.
We have twenty-five volumes on geo.
logical surveys, but have been unable
to find any that agree with the well

WI ait by another week something will
be reached that will surprise even the
oldest inhabita nts.

slate, one of flint rock, and yet each
stratum has been found much closer to
each other THAT was indicated by the
authorities.

now about the well, and thinks that by

The Good Night Kiss.

How glad a true child is to kneel by
his mother's knee and say his evening
prayer or to have his father kneel with
him as he prays How be enjoys words
Of approval or encouragement when
they precede the goodnight kiss from
either parent With what warmth
and grateful affection his young heart
glows as he feels the tender impress Of
bis mothers hand or lips on his fore
head before he drops asleep How
bright and dear does that home seem
to him at such an hour How sorry
he il for every word or act Of unkind-
ness which be then recalls from his
conduct Of the day How ready he
then is 10 confess his specific acts Of
misdoing and all his remembered fail
ures, and to make new resolves and
purposes Of doing for the future. What
ever else child is impatient to grow
away from, be does not really out
grow the enjoyment Of his mother :
goodnight. AS long as she Is willing
to visit his bedside and give him a
kiss, with loving word just before he
goes to sleep, he is sure to count that
privilege Of bis home as something
above price. and without which be
could have a sense of sad lack. And
at no time is he more sure than then
to be ready to do whatever his mother
would ask Of him; at no time do gentle,
tender words Of loving counsel from
her sink deeper into his heart or make
a stronger impression.

sI.50 A YEAR, CASH.
The South and the Sabbath.
The Philadelphia Evening Telegraph

The Philadelphia Evening Telegraph
says:
Zone thing may frankly and truth
fully be said, in no part of this coun-
try today is the oli-fsshioned Ameri-
can Sunday day of secession from
secular labor, respectful quiet, and
worship for all who are so Inclined
so generally observed as in the South.
This fact is noted with extreme grati-
hcation by Northern visitors, already
unhappily familiar with current prae-
tees throughout this section, and the
West particularly. There is to be no
unseemly aud costly contest over open
ing the Atlanta Exposition on the
first dav o! the week There WAS
feeble effort in this direction, but II has
been speedily disposed Of. and in =
characteristic way, 10y the directory.
which unanimously voted TO postpone
all consideration of the subject. This
course is taken in Difference to local
public sentiment and in accordance
with fundamental American principles.
Atlanta is very busy city six days
in the week. 1t is forging ahead in
every element of material prosperity
but on Saturday night 1t lays aside the
tools of labor and refrsins from unnec-
essary trespass upon the rights of those
who toll. In this respect the New
South sets healthful and inspiring
example to the reckless cities Of the
West, which have almost abolished the
American Sunday.
This is the sober truth. II has come
to pass that if one would find thor
oughly representative American COM
munity-where our language is spoken
by all, where our customs are faith
fully perpetuated, and where a whole
some and pronounced national senti-
ment lies at the bottom of mems
thoughts and inspires all their pur-
poses and actions-one must go South.
There he will encounter people who
look, speak, think, and feel like the
men who wrested this country first
from the untutored savages and after
ward from the tyranny Of princes.
There stands the stronghold of con-
servatism, the happy medium between
tyranny and anarchy, the stout, un-
yielIlng spirit Of enlightened repub-
licanism.
There was no noise of wrsnghng
over Sabbath observance at the Allan
ia Exposition because the men Of the
South do not seriously disagree upon
such issues Public sentiment IN that
part OF the country respects, honors
and upholds the day Of rest. There
il 10 ostentstion of piety, no csntlng
protestation Of superior holiness. The
people simply follow in the footsteps
of their fathers and recognize the Sab
bath as a thing of course. They are
hustling, earnest, brave.hearted folks
in Atlanta They believe in progress
and prosperity. But they give one
day to decent soberness-concede to
oach one at least the opportunity Of
worship-and stand unanimously for
the day religion and morality have
set apart. Along with energy, liber-
ality, intelligence, courage, and pa
triotisln, they put the American Sab
bath on their programme, and there
it stands Uoshngton Post.

TO A SOUTHERN GIRL.

Ier eyes
Would match the southern skies
When southern skies are bluesi;
Her heart
VIII always take her part
Where southern hearts are tIuest.
Bright pearls
Tho gems OF southern girls
Her winning smile discloses;
Her cheeks,
When admiration speaks,
Were only southern roses.
Her voice,
BY nature and by choic=,
E'en those who know her slightest,
VIII tind
AS soft as southern wind
Whef southern winds are lightest.
Her laugh
AS light as wine or chaft,
Breaks clear at witty sa lies,
As brooks
Run bubbling through the hooks
Oiall her southern valleys.
Such youth,
With all it's charms, forsootn-
Alas! too well know it
Will claim
A song OF love and fame,
Sung by some southern poet,
But she
In future years, maybe.
These verses will discover;
Some time
May read this little rhyme
sung by a northern lover.

been affiliated in any way with the
socialist movement, and that he had
picked up the tune, the character Of
which he entirely ignored, merely from
having heard it in the street or in some
beer garden.
Whistling, indeed, seems to be a
dangerous diversion in Germany, for
it was not 50 very long ago that the
hall porter of a fashionable hotel on
Inter den Linden at Berlin was "run
il" by the police, brought before a
magistrate and condemned to fine,
with the alternative Of Imprisonment,
for having whistled to summon a cab
for guest at the hostelry.
The proprietor of the hotel appealed
from the sentence of the police magis-
trate to higher court, pleading that
from time immemorial it has been Gus
tomary to whistle in haillng hacks.
This plea the Judge rejected as irrele-
want to the point at issue, 10 w.t. the
illegality of whistling in a public
thoroughfare.
After all, this is only keeping with
the strict laws which prevail in that
essentially music-loving and music
making country, Prussia. People are
not allowed to play or singln their own
apartments after 10 o'clock unless with
the express consent of their neigh
bors.
They may not keep on their premises
any furred OF feathered animals adj
dicted to nocturnal utterauces Of sounds

In the south OF Austria, especially
along the shores of the Adriatic, the
daisy is regarded by the authorities as
the emblem of disloyalty and Of that
great revolutionary association known
as the Italia Irredenta, which aims at
the restoration to Italy Of all Austria =
Italian-speaking provinces. The rea-
son why this particular flower has been
adopted by the Irredentists Is because
its continental name Is synonymous
with that of Italy's still charmlngand
popular Queen, Marguerite, and, be-
sides this, it is so abundant that 1t Is
within the reach Of even the most
proverty-stucken peasant.
At the present moment there are
men and even women undergoing I'M
prlsonment at Trieste and elsewhere
whose only ofense consisted in their
having worn buttonhole and corsage
bouquets of daisies.
Even in republican France, 50 far
ahead Of all the other countries Of
Europe in democracy and enlighten-
ment, any person caught wearing a
piece Of colored ribbon in his button
hole be ii temperance badge, Loyal
Legion rosette or merely the souvenir
ofsome fair lady, renders himselfliable
to arrest, fine and imprisonment unless
he can show that he received special
authority to do so.
Members of European orders Of
knighthood, whose decorations have
been conferred by some regularly con-
stituted government, alone have the
right to wear in their buttonhole a
bow or a rosette of ribbon Of the par
ticular order to which they belong,
while if they are French subjects they
can not do so unless they have first
obtained permission from the cbancel-
lor Of the Order Of the Legion Of Hon

How We Go To Sleep.

Now physicians and psychologists
come to the front with the astounding
statement that a man goes to sleep
piecemeal instead of altogether and
simultaneously, as it were. That Is,
senses do not lull themselves unitedly
and at once into a state of slumber,
but cease to receive impressions grad
ually, one after the other At first
the sight ceases and next the sense Of
taste loses its susceptibility to outward
impression.
Even then, the individual being al
most in a state of unconsciousness,
three senses still remain in condition
of activity-smelling, hearing and
thought. Gradually the sense Of SMELL
ing goes, then hearing and finally,
with the lapse of thought, the entire
body becomes completely asleep.
The psychologists have gone even
further than this, and they say that
the senses sleep with different degrees
of profoundness. The sense Of touch
is the most easy to arouse, next that OF
hearing, then sight, and taste and
smelling last.
Sleep steals on the body gradually
certain parts of muscles beginning to
sleep before others. Slumber commen-
ces at the extremities, beginning with
the feet and legs. That Is why 1t Is
always necessary to keep the feet warm.
