ATLANTA's WATER WORKS.
Park woodward Elected superin-
tendent for Political Reasons.

Atlanta, Ca, Jan. S.-The reorganization
of the board of water commissioners,
which has been the absorbing feature in
municipal politics for several weeks. oc-
CURED to-day. Up to yesterday it was
a foregone conclusion that Col. Park
Woodward, the chief Lieutenant of the
anti-English forces, and who has stood
by Mayor King throughout his political
career would be elected superintendent
of the water works department at fat
salary. This had been fixed some time
ago. George w. Terry, the present super
intendent who has been connected with
the department for fifteen years as sec
rotary until a few months past, when he
was elevated to superintendent, was to
be frozen out entirely. There was nothing
not in the ring Yesterday, however it
was reported that Mayor King had de-
termined not TO support Woodward, on
account of a sudden political COmplica-
ton, practically amounting to a rupture
in the combination that has ruled the mu-
nicipal roost the past year, and when
the board met to-day the politicians were
al at sea. In the end, however, Mayor
King remained true to his friend and
Mr.. Woodward was elected superintend-
ent at a salary of 5000 per year.
Col. Woodward has never had any ex-
perience in the line of his new duties,
and the board was unwilling to part
with Mr. Terry after Col Woodward S
election to the superntendency, so he
was made secretary in order that the
new superintendent may have the benefit
of his knowledge of the work
Mr.. Torbett, who was slated to have
the place of secretary, was not an ex-
perienced man in the management of the
water works office, and when the ques-
ton of Col. Woodwards ability to fiji
his new position without the assistance
of Mr.. Terry was raised, Mr.. Torbett
withdrew his name from consideration
There has been a good deal of kicking
by the public on account of the deter
mination to make political gifts of the
water works offices, that department hav-
ing always heretofore been kept out of
politics, and while Col. Woodward and
Mayor .King's political friends are of
course satisfied with having secured the
not and the working out of the political
slate to-day has been widely discussed.

a FAKE COLONIZATION scHEME.
Negroes Pay Money to an Agent who
Fails to Reappcar.

Albany, Ca. Jan. s.-The country
around the little village of Baconton, on
the Savannah. Florida and Western rail-
way, has recently been the scene of oper-
atoms for a very smooth fake African
colonization agent, and not less than
twenty-five negro families in that com
munity have had their dreams of a home
in a land flowing with milk and honey
rudely dissipated.
The fake agent who was a bright mu-
latto, well dressed and apparently well
educated, went at his work in a syste-
matte way, causing his dupeS to sacrifice
all their earthly belongings in order to
Africa and TO set them up in business
after they had reached the golden shore
BY artful representations he succeeded
IN getting into his hands $500 or $500 and
then left, ostensibly for Brunswick to ar
range for transportation. He appointed
last Friday afternoon as the time when
he would arrive in a special train in which
they would begin their long journey.
There was no failure upon the part of
the would-be emigrants TO meet the Fri
day afternoon train. Whole families
from the infant to the gray and bent
grandfathers and mothers. awaited in
fond anticipation, only to have their hopes
blighted with the frosts of cruel dis
appointment The train came, but not
the agent, nor the special car. He had
gone to play his game again elsewhere
and so they were forced to turn back TO
the friends that they had sought to de-
sert, TO help them in their distress. If
the sales of mules and horses in this city
means anything II means a tremendous
increase in farming activity throughout
this section. There have been more mules
and horses sold here than ever before in
the history of the town.

OUT OF A RECEIVERS HANDS.
An Atlanta street Railway to be Re-
organized.

Atlanta, Ga, Jan. S.-Judge ]. H.
Lumpkin to-day signed an order discharg-
ing the receiver of the ChattahOochee
River Street Railway Company. which
has been in the hands of the court for
the past two years. The line runs from
the center of the city to the Chattahoochee
river and at the outset appeared to be
valuable property. 1t was hardly complet-
ed, however, when, on the petition of the
Short Electric Company, whose claim
amounted to $4,000, and other creditors,
aggregating $4,000, "a receiver was appoint
ed. The failure of the company, which
was organized by Jerome Simmons, who
was the president, was precipitated by an
accident two years ago, in which four per-
sons were killed and several badly In
jured. A locomotive was pulling several
cars of passengers, the electrical equip
ment not having been completed. On a
heavy grade the engine jumped the track
after running wild for some distance, ana
all the passengers were thrown out. I'M
mediately after the accident a lot OF
damage suits, aggregating 100000, were
filed against the road, and this resulted
in the receivershlp. The property is es-
timated to be worth 5000, 600. The dismis-
sal of the receiver was effected by a set
tlement of the claims and the road will
now be reorganized.

the present indications, Atlanta will have

they will have a club in the Southern
League and at least divide patronage

claimed in the past that there was no
money in base ball, and yet those who
claim that they have always lost on the
game declare that they will take their
chances on the town supporting two clubs.
Those interested in the new league. how
ever, think that the old managers are do
ing THIS kind of talking for the purpose
of bringing them to terms.

enthusiastic, and believe that with At

Charleston league can be maintained
that Will be more successful than the
