Special to The Ae-Heraid:

Special to The Ae-Herald: Atlanta, Nov. 1s.-The Setinau case as it is called, will be a mystery for some time to come.
 The Age-Herald readers know the leading facts. Louis stefnau failed. His wholesale liquor store was turned over to a receiver and locked up. Policeman Ponder watched and saw somebody in- side. He went fn and was shot dead
 The person who shot him could have enterd the store fren the saloon next door, kept by Steinau's brother-in-law, Julius simon. The safe in Steinaus store was found unlocked It had been opened by somebody who knew the combina- ton.
 Steinau, simon, and latter's bartender, Walter O'Quinn, all knew it. They are all under suspicion and have been held for murder. The evidence against them will be c.rcumstantial, but it will be strong.
 The theory is that enc of these persons opened the safe to get something Steinau wanted, and shot Ponder No common burglar did it. The guilty man knew the combination.
 As might have been expected the legis- latuge has killed the bin for a constitu- tional convention.
 It ought to have been killed. The bill was fool bill. It provided that the delegates to the convention should foot the bill. They were to draw no salary or mileage. They were to pay for ink, pa per and desks, and furnish wind free.
 Such rotten nonsense was never put in an important bill before.
 The state needs new constitution badly, but every little 10-cent demagogue is afraid of it-afraid it will cost money i; afraid it will leave him out in the cold {; afraid that the capital will be moved {; afraid that there will be the very devil to pay.
 Just now there is a big furry over educational matters The legislative re- port says that the state university is in a very unsatisfactory condition, and it's landscript should be taken away. Its model farm is said to be complete fail
 
 all want to be professional men. So there is some talk about moving the university from Anthems.
 Dr. Warren Candler, Dr. Curry, Dr. Boggs and other college presidents have been making speeches to the legislature. These able addresses have done no harm, as the average legislator takes to the woods as soon as he hears that college president is looking for him.
 The speeches have been heard mainly by good little boys, who were sent there by their parents to hear something that would improve their minds.
 Co-education is looming up. Dr. Boggs is for it. Mrs. Louise Myrick, editor of the Americus Time Recorder is against it. Lots of distinguished gentlemen are on the fence.
 Some people don't know exactly what co-education is. The boys and girls are for it. They think it would be jolly fun.
 Such startling innovation has aroused the old-timers and they do not hesitate to say that the state is going to the dogs.
 Some of the teachers who favor it think that it would cause a big shlake- up and make bettsr places for taem.
 Un1er the auspices of the chamber of commerce., a committee will go to work ard get up a statistical pamphlet filed with information about Atlanta's aivan- tages and resources.
 Every nerve is being strained tl, get up @ showy and impressive pamphlet at the least possible cost. u will be the work of cfsap men, and will probably have the Cheap John stamp on every page.
 It's summary of manufactures ought to be interesting reading. It should ted how Atlanta's soap, corset, sewing ma chime and piano factories startsh, an1 how they went out of business. It should have list of the closed factories and state the amount of wages paid to men, women and children.
 The faks news factory should have a leading place among these industries. It's profits on the amount of capital in- vested gre simply immense.
 The night kin1 of news fak'r can make, dead loads of money in Atlanta. The greenIhlcrns who manage the big north ern daiiies will take the widest yarns ever lilVsEteI, anu pay leT uieih III tHey bear an Atlanta dale.
