GATE CITY GUARDS.
The Governor VIII Allow the COmpa-
ny 10 Carry Arms for the Present.


ny 20 Carry Arms Tor the Present.
Atlanta, Ca, Oct. 4.-Gov. Atkinson has
decided that the Gate City Guards can,
for the present at least, carry arms as a
military company. Recently a conference
was held at the executive Office between
the Guards, at which the claims of the
Guards were set forth. 1t was decided to
leave the question entirely with the gov
ernor, who, after considering 1t for sew
eral days, decided that the proper thing
to do was to acknowledge the validity of
the charter of the Guards until the mat
ter can be thoroughly investigated. The
company has persistently refused to Join
the regular state military, but claims to
granted before the war. The charter was
disputed by the regular militia, who in
sisted that the Guards had no right to
bear arms in public, and much hard feel
ing has been engendered in military cir
Giles. At one time the company was
threatened by officers of the Fifth regi-
ment with arrest If they appeared under
arms, but the threat was not carried out
ON the opening of the exposition, how
ever, the regular military refused to pa
rade If the Guard was allowed in the line
and to preserve the peace the Guard with
drew. Until otherwise decided the Guard
Will now claim all the rights of a resu-
lar military body, though Independent of
the regulations governing the state SER
vice. 1t is claimed that II the old charter
of the company is held to be valid II will
service, as many other commands have
similar charters and might prefer to be
Independent under them to existing under
the strict regulations of the state service

A Blaze Under Ground.

From the Philadelphia Record.
Burlington, N. j., Sept. 2S-On the farm
of John Willis, near Columbus, subter-
ranean fire has been burning for nearly
two weeks, and has now spread over a
large area. The fire started in a field
on the edge of forest containing a deep
accumulation of leaves, which became dry
and parched during the long drought. 1t
is thought the flames originated from
spontaneous combustion. They have eaten
their way underneath the ground, burning
of the roots of large trees and causing
them to fail to the ground.
Miniature craterS have formed in nu-
meTous places. from which may be seen
smoke arising. A person in walking over
the burnt district will sink almost to the
knees in charred earth.
Servant applying for place)-And 1
shall require the address of your last ser
want"
Mistress-W hatever for?'
Seryant-Why, to get your character
from her, of course. Judy.

900 to $4,000. The sale is 10 place in

Pacific, although some of the bull interests,
notably in st. Paul, said they had no inten-

The street generally regarded the move in the

that crop conditions as applied 20 Southern
