NO BLOOD WILL BE SHED.
The Proposed Bull Fights at Atlanta
Will BE Tame Exhibitions,

Atlanta, Ga, Aug. 1O.-In relation to
the bull fights which are to be feature
of the exposition, President Collins
made statement last night in which he
said: In the first place the bull fight is
not an exhibit, but part of the mid
way. The performance will take place
within an enclosure, and 1t will only be
seen by those who care to pay for the
privilege. have received letters from
persons exercised over this subject and
in which the correspondents labored
under the impression that the bulls were
to be killed and horses disembowled. 1
wish to assure the public that not drop
of blood will be shed Such a represen-
tation of bull fight is not an expert
ment. The thing has been done before
and is now being done successfully in
Mexico. 1t was done in Paris during
the last exposition there, and gentlemen
in this and other cities are witnesses of
the fact that the performance was harm
less and devoid of cruelty"

About Situations.

Never during our many years expert
ence, have the graduates Of Palms Col
lege been as successful in securing
situations as this spring. Considering
the dull times, this is remarkable state
ment. The principal reason why we do
more in this connectionthan other schools
is because our students are of superior
class, and better qualified. Business
men are aware Of this fact, and that's
why they come to us when in need of
book-keepers and Office assistants. If

HOW HE KILLED THEM.
A Secret Cut-off in a Gas-pipe Found
in Holmes Castle.

Chicago, Aug. 10.-The pick of a
workman in the Holmes castle uncov-
cred a construction which carries sug-
gestions of the conspirator's work. In
the room on the second floor where
Holmes used to sleep a gas-pipe runs
over the floor. Where the pipe meets
the wall it turns down into the floor,
and beneath the boards is a cutoff. The
pipe runs directly to the windowless
room where it is believed Mrs. O'Con-
ner was murdered. The cutoff is be-
lieved to be one of Holmes instruments
of death. Sitting in his room, he could
turn on with ease flow of gas that
would fill the dark sleeping apartment
and asphyxiate the occupants.

EHecfnon the Gulf Stream.

The curious point is made by writer in
the Scientific American that if a channel
of sufficient Size and depth We're cut from
the Caribbean sea toJthe Pacific ocean, the
gulf stream would no longer flow across
the Atlantic and warm the shores of
Europe, but owould pour into the Pacific
ocean The islands forming the Caribbean
sea act on the principle of breakwater or
dam, holding the water that has been
forced into the sea by the tides and trade
winds, and cause the water to be higher in
that sea and turn it into the Gulf of Mex
leo. which becomes the reservoir or foun-
tain head, whence the gulf stream flows
like a river from lake, being the equal
izer of water as well as heat, and making
its way in the direction of the greatest
deficiency of that element. Further, the
warmth of this wonderful stream is &C
counted for by the fact that its waters are
supplied from the tropics, the tide waves
acting on the principle of an eddy, so it has
counter currents also, this theory resting
upon the assumption that the water is
higher on the east than en- the west side
of the Isthmus of Panama; and, the CONT
nent of America being the great dam in
the ocean that forms the gulf stream, by
placing the continent OF America so that
it would lie east and west, there would be
no gulf stream.

SPOTTED CIGAR WRAPPERS.
The Demand for Light COlOred To.
baccO Marked by Spots.

From the Hartford Courant
For some years the taste. or rather the
fancy, of cigar smokers has run to light
brands and spotted wrappers. This fancy
has caused the price of light-colored Suma-
ira tobacco to go away above dark colors in
the same grades and brands. At first the
fad was peculiarly American, and then there
was not so much difference in the prices of
light and dark Sumatra, for the dark colors
could be disposed of to advantage in other
countries. But now manufacturers every
where want the liahtest colors that can be
obtained. To meet this demand the growers
of Sumatra have secured a lighter average
color by cutting their tobacco earlier. Thus
they obtain an advantage in color but the
quality of the tobacco suffers. But 1t has
been anything to get light colors
Until recently, however, all attempts to
give tobacco the much admired spots arti-
ficially have failed. The knowledge of
smokers that the spots have occurred
naturally in the tobacco leaf, without the
aid of man, has added to the value in which
they are held. Various acids and other
chemicals have been tried, but these, If they
had any effect upon the tobacco, simply
burned holes in it instead of producing the
desired spots 1t seems now, however, that
these spots can be made artificially. A COM
position fluid has been discovered which,
when sprinkled on the growing leaves, will
leave on the matured tobacco as beautiful
spots any which nature produces. At
least one field of tobacco in Bloomfield was
treated that way this year, and the owner
has a lot of Connecticut wrappers which
he expects to obtain a big price for, on ac-
count of its handso me spots.

parent Failure on the Relay Ride.
The members of the Mercer County
Wheelmen of Trenton, N. j., are very in
dignant at the reports that have been wide
ly published that they failed in their part
of the recent military cyclists relay ride
to New York. The statement was made
that the relay rider Pryor arrived in New
Brunswick tired out, and the PAGERS from
Trenton did not show up, and those who
did knew nothing of the road, and it goes
on saying a number of things that are det-
rinental to the club.
The truth of the matter is the relay
schedule was too slow. The NJ. c. w. boys
had received the schedule and instructed
the pace makers to appear at the stated
time, and no telegram was received no
tifyirg them that the relay was over an
hour ahead of time. When Pryor's wheel
broke down Mr.. Callowh hill of the NJ. c. w.
gave him his wheel and walked back sew
eral miles with the broken wheel and sent
1t to Washington for him. Harry Stahl.
who left few minutes behind the riders,
reached New Brunswick ahead of them.
He missed them by going over a different
road.
Lieut.. F. P. Libbey has written to the
NJ. c. w. thanking the club, in behalf of
the relay riders. for courtesies shown and
assuring the club that it was not its fault
that the relay PAGERS were not on hand.
Mr.. Libbey also complained that the ride
was scheduled for twenty-three hours, not
twenty-five, as published, and that the re-
lay riders We're one hour and forty-tWo
minutes ahead. The riders, it will be re-
membered, left here Z an. Sunday and ar

4 Fertilization Story.

Columbia go Letter to the Atlanta Constitution
The best-preserved specimen of a human
body ever seen IN this section was discov-
cred by W.. NJ. B Iff, respectable farmer
living about six miles from the city, few
days ago.
He was fishing in Saluda river and had
pushed his beat up a creek, in which the
water was lower than it has ever beer
known to be before, becal Sc of the recently
prolonged drouth. He saw just above the
top of the water what he took to be the
foot of man, and upon nearer eXamina-
ton ne found it to be such, but turning to
stone. Calling the help of neighbors, he
dug the object out CT the bed of the creek,
and found it to be the perfect form of a
man who lad evidently been prepared for
burial and regularly buried, his hands
were crossed. the eyel;dS closed, the limbs
laid out straight and the head in position.
He brought the fody to the city, and a
number of physicians and scientists who
have examined it pronounce it to be gen.
une petrified body. Every feature is per-
feet, and there are 10 Designations, except
just at the navel, where there is a cash six
inches long and lying open. The mustache
is easily discerniDle, al d a number of hairs
are to be found still on the upper lip and
en- the other hairy portions of the body.
The figure is about six feet long, and shows
the physique of a powerful man.
1t is supposed to be the body of a revolu-
tionary soldier who was buried in the bed
OF the creek, SO as 10 prevent us DelnS us
turbed either by the Indians or the wild
beasts. The wound in the stomach is sup
posed to be the cause of his death.
At first it was supposed to be the body of
an Indian, an Indian burying ground is
known to have been on the banks of the
creek number of Indian bones and uten-
sis Usually buried with Indians having
been found there. But physicians declare
this to be the form of white man, because
of his mode of burial and his Caucasian
features.
