Atlanta, Sept. Ex-Governor Atkinson dined a half dozen governors and twenty other guests at the Capital City club to- night. An unusual incident occurred during the dinner. At first small group of men assembled outside the club house on Peachtree street and called for Gov ernor Morton of New York. The crowd grew rapidly and Governor Morton left the dinner party, stepped to the window and made short speech to those outside. His speech was loudly applauded As he returned to the dinner party the crowd yelled for Mckinley, whom they knew was inside.
 What did you say. Morton? Words nothing but words?" asked Governor Me Kinley jestingly.
 Some might think so, perhaps, govern- or. I told them that you were an elo- quent orator and would speak Tor me.
 Then shall" responded Governor Me Kinley, for the cries for the Ohioan were now yelling like thunder. He arose from the table and accompanied by four other governors walked out and spoke for " eral minutes to the great satisfaction of the crowd, who by this time numbered 5000 or more.

MALARIA MICROBES.
A Few Facts Concerning These Unavoidable
 Disease Germs.


 The organism or germ which causes chronic malaria is known among micro scopists as Polimitus or the Parasite ot Laveran. These organisms are so ex- ceedingly small that they must be mag nified many thousand times 10 De seen at all. Unlike the parasite of acute mala- ria, those which produce chronic malaria are incapable of motion. They reproduce themselves with astounding rapidity. and in malarial districts it is impossible to be safe from them. They enter the body with every swallow of water with every mouthful of food, and even in the air we breathe. When they have once entered the system they begin their work by pro ducing all the well-known symptoms Of malaria; the cold sweat bad breath coated tongue, sour taste in the mouth, poor digestion, and almost ceaseless bill iousness and headaches.
 When these people have satisfied them selves that it is malaria they have they begin to take quinine, thinking that will help them. But each one is doomed to final disappointment. There is only one and thoroughly cure or prevent chronic malaria. This remedy is known as Pe ru-na. Taken regularly during the sea son, Pe-ru-na will entirely prevent the malady, and, if the disease be already ac- quired, will cure it permanently.
 Every one who lives in or near a mala- rious district should send at once for a free medical book which treats of malaria in all it's forms. This book will be sent to any address by the Pe-ru-na Drug Manu- featuring company of Columbus o.

towardsgthes shore instead of towards the point of starting While the competing boats finished scarcely more than a quar- ter of the days work the showing made by Spruce " was highly creditable to Skipper Brand, who sailed his boat in strange waters in a manner to win the highest of praise. s
 The details of the attempt to race are but the story of a drifting match. Owing to the size of the boats it was agreed the starting line should be marked by Center island spar buoy and keg carry ing flag, anchored on the off shore side To the northward of the latter Commo- dore E. c. Benedict's steam yacht Oneida, carrying the regatta committee, took position soon after noon, and at 12:5O the preliminary whistle was blown. Ten minutes later the preparatory blast fol- lowed and Shippers Brand and Ball be- gan to jockey for position. At 12:50 when the starting signal was sounded the Ethelwynn had the northerly berth and both boats passed the run of three miles to leeward with bows to star board and spinnakers to port.
 By the official figures Spruce " made the turn at 2:04:35 greeted by a chorus of whistles. Ethelwynn turned at 2:07:43. and was likewise vigorously cheered.
 With practically no wind and with tide setting both boats to the eastward Ethelwynn picked up the 2 minutes s seconds she was behind at the turn, and at 2:35 o'clock she was in the windward berth and on even terms with Spruce.

Durant's Chief Attorney Confident of His
 Clients Acquittal.
 San Francisco, Sept. 21.-Durant's chief attorney, Eugene N. Duprey, today aired his views on the case, although he could not say what the defense would be-
 He said: "Our confidence is unshaken by what the prosecution has shown, or, so far as we know, can show and we feel that we will be able to show Durant's in nocence without difficulty. The case presented by the prosecution was weak er than we had been led to believe by the re- ports circulated. Oppenheim gives us no worry, as we know his testimony was a fabrication. As to the la dies, they were mis- taken as we will show. We will not take as long to put in our case as was taken by the prosecution.
 "rhe many rumors that were set afioat as to what evidence the police have against Durant led us to make more eX- tensive preparations than we now find to be necessary. l think our case ought to he put in within ten days It make take longer. Few of the witnesses will have long stories to tell on the stand We are not ready to outline the defense as yet. All the preliminaries are not arranged, though we have all the matter on hand We have decided about what it will be. In my confidence as to Durants acquit- tai, am speaking because I believe him to be innocent. and because we will be able to prove that to the satisfac ction of all intelligent jury.
 We will leave the police to unravel the mystery, which they will find denser af- ter we have gotten through with it than it was before. l expect the prosecution to close on Tuesday. and l may begin my opening statement on Wednesday. I will fully outline our case and show what we intend to prove. Until then nothing will be said about what the de- fenSc is going to be-"

A report was sent out broadcast over the country some weeks ago to the effect that the Anniston Pipe company of An niston, Ala, had, in competition with the world, secured the contract for the mak- ing of thousands of tons of iron pipe for the city of Tokio, Japan. The report proved to be a myth. or the contract has never taken any steps toward filling the order; but the Age Herald this morn ing has the pleasure of announcing to the world a gigantic contract of the same character. and, this time, the pa pers are all signed and work is to begin in few days on the contract.
 The Howard-Harrison Iron company of Bessemer, through their vice-president, MT. T. B. Nichols, yesterday closed contract with the municipal authorities of the city of Honolulu for sufficient 1S- inch iron pipe to sewer the city The amount will aggregate 15,000 tons a the lowest estimate. and is expected to amount to 30, GOO tons
 MT. Nichols returned last night from St. Louis, at which place all the details of the contract were arranged between him. a s the representative of the How ard-H Harrison company. and the agents of the city of Honolulu
 The Howard Harrison company had the whole world to compete with in the securing of this contract and their bid was much lower per ton than that of any other concern of any country.
 The filling of this contract will mark an era In the industrial advancement of the United States.
