Fish stop A Tug.

The sea tug Thomas J Smith, of Phil adclphia, was rendered almost helpless for q time the other day by getting into a tremendous school of bluefish. She corld not steer, and when her propeller was worked ahead or astern, the blood of the fish slashed by its sharp blades spouted up, eoloring the. water all about the tugs hulN The middle of the school was held together by the outer edges pushing toward the center. As the tug got into the thickest part of the school she almost stopped. and it was impos- sible to handle her Hundreds were ground up by the propellers. Sudden ly, as daylight dawned, they dispersed, and their fiuttering in the waterwas vis- ibIe for miles.-N Y. Tribune.

SPANISH QUEENS No1LENEss.
Warm Sympathy Shown for the Family
 of a Dying Girl.

A beautiful act of the queen of Spain is being very favorable commented upon through the entire Spanish press. The queen was riding in her carriage with her brother, Archduke Eugene of Austria, through the Pasco de Areneros, one of the ststreets of Madrid, when they met priest carrying the holy sacrament to a dying girl. Both the queen and her brother stepped out of the royal carriage, surrendered their places to the priest and followed the carriage on feott to Galilee street, where young girl. Maria Louise Fuentes, the daughter of the well-known actor of the same name, was in the throes of death.
 The queen showed great interest in the family and assisted at the ceremony of administering the extreme unction to the girl, who died soon afterward. When the priest left the house the queen and her brother returned on foot behind the royal carriage, in which the priest rode, to the church of Nuestra Sonora de los Dolores, where the priest dismounted and thanked the queen for her kindness.
 When the population of that quarter of the city learned of the noble oct of their queen regent the enthusiastic demonstration seemed never to end. When the queen had reached the palace she sent one of her adjutants to the house of the dead girl with purse containing a round sum of money to help defray the expense incurred by the illness and death of the girl.

5 SUNDAY SERMONS.
Praise the Lord.

Praise the Lord.
 We'll brother the Lord has shed His precious blood for you and said Come What more do you want. You are com ing right now, are you not?
 Christ is waiting for every old sinner in this town this morning. He wants you to come and claim His help. Thank God they never get too tough for our Christ to save. Praise His Hoy Name.
 Christ meant a great deal whsn He said: Except ye are converted and be- come as a little child you shall not enter the Kingdom. Can you trust Him as a child trusts it's mother? Can you look everybody in the eye without fiinching :? Are you teachable and are you perfectly sure that you don't know everything If you can comply with the above you are eligible to membership in His church
 There are enough Christians in B rmiTg- ham to convert the whole world, if they had the power that God would like to give to them If they would only seek a higher plain of Christian living.
 Brother. if you want anything of Gcd, I will tell you how you may obtain it. He has told us to ask and 1t shall be given, seek and ye shall find. knock and it shall be opened unto you Whatsoever we ask for if it is good we can have it. I say that Christians should pray at all times and about all things they do. What eyer it is. eat. drink, work or play, for Christ says that God loves for us to talk to him. So if there is anything that you desire real bad get a person that y-u know is prayerful and both of you pray for the blessing you so much desire and you will receive it if you believe. Again I say urto you. that if two of you sha I agnse on earth as touching anything tha t they shall ask. it shall be done for them of My Father which is in heaven. Fer where two or three are gathered together in my rsme. there am I in the midst of them. (Matt. xviii. 19-20) So, brother, Gnd cannot lie and if your prayer is not answered it is your fault aad not His, for as your faith is SD be it unto VOL.

EOW TO FIND OUT.


 Fill a bottieor common glass with urine and let it stand twenty-four hours; sed- iment or settling indicates an un- healthy condition of the kidneys. When urine stains linen it is positive evidence of kidney trouble. Too frequent desire to urinate or pain in the back is also con vincing proof that the kidneys and blad- der are out of order.
 WHAT TO DO.
 There is comfort in the knowledge so often expressed that Dr. Kilmer's swamp Root. the great kidney remedy. fulhlls every wish in relieving pain in the back. kidneys, liver bladder and every part or the urinary passages. It corrects inapll- ity to hold urine and scalding pain ln passing it, or bad effects following the use of llauor wine or beer, and overeomes that unpleasant necessity of being com pelled to get up many times during the night to urinate. The mild and the extra ordinary effect of Swamp Root is soon realized. It stands the highest Tor us wonderful cures of the most distressing cases. If you need a medicine you should have the best.

ARNOLD TO GET A DIVORCE.
He Compromises with His Wife ana
Is 10 Pay Her $1,000

Atlanta. Ga. March 9.-Charles H. Ar
mold, the leading wholesale grocer, who
recently filed a very sensational bill for
divorce against his wife, Mrs. Ida Pope
Arnold. to-day published a brief card say
ing that he and Mrs. Arnold have agreed
upon a compromise of the case. This
agreement was effected some days ago.
Mrs. Arnold coming TO Atlanta from her
fathers home in Kentucky to be present
at the signing of the agreement. Shortly
after doing so she returned to Kentucky.
All the parties are very reticent about
the matter. and the details OF the COM
promise are being kept from the public
as far as possible. It is stated on reli-
able authority that under the agreement
Mrs. Arnold received $500 in cash and
VIII receive a similar amount upon the
termination of the divorce proceedings,
upon condition that she is to withdraw
her cross bill and allow Mr.. Arnold to 20
ahead and secure his divorce
The Arnold case is one of the most zen
sational that has ever been brought in
Fulton county. Both parties are promi-
nent and of the best family Mr. Arnold
being one of the largest wholesale gro
GERS in the city, and his wife being hand
some and popular in a social way In his
bill for divorce Mr.. Arnold accused mis-
wife of infidelity and named j. H. Pace
as correspondent.
Sensational as this allegation was, the
cross bill of the wife was still more So
She recited at length a train of events
going to establish a conspiracy on the
part of her husband to secure "a divorce
upon the grounds named so he would be
saved alimony, and denying guilt of in
fidelity. She described a sensational scene
at the Arnold mansion, on Washington
street, when one night, at midnight, her
husband sent out for the police to search
the house. with the hope of finding Mr.
Pace and her in a comprom sing situation.
There was a variety of sensational fea-
lures to the case. and If the fight had
been allowed to proceed in the courts, it
would have been sensat ional in the ex-
treme. The withdrawal Of Mrs. Arnold's
cross bill will avoid the fight that was
in prospect, and Mr.. Arnold, by the COM
promise, will be at liberty to prove any
thing he wants, to get his coveted di-
vorce.

NEW LIGHT THROWN ON HALE.
ANOTHER OF HIS DEALS JUST
BROUGHT TO LIGHT.

Bought Out the bankrupt Hermitage
Building and Loan Association Of
Nashville and Issued stock of the
Southern Mutual to Pay For IT.
No Record of the Transaction
Made on the Books of the Latter
AssOciation-Negoti For the
Return of the $4,000 of HypOthe-
Gated Securities.
Atlanta. Ga, March 9.-Attorneys rep
resenting various conflicting interests in
the Southern Mutual Building and Loan
Association litigation held an important
conference here to-day Besides the two
receivers, Messrs. Anderson and O'Byrne
and their lawyers w. V. Harper of New
York. who was to have been the partner
in the eastern agency of the Iowa Life
Insurance Company, was represented by
Hon. Hoke Smith. and the terms of the re-
turn Of the $4,000 of securities of the as
ISOLATION now in the hands of that company
was the leading matter under discussion
What propositions were made is not
known, as the parties do not feel at liberty
to give details to the public until some
thing definite is determined upon.
1t is understood that the ACCESSIBILITY of
asking the court to authorize the receivers
to offer a reward for the arrest of W. C.
Hale was discussed informally, and it may
be that this will be done. Some of the
attorneys present were inclined to the
opinion, however, that the court was not
authorized to take such a step, as the
funds that would be used belong to the
stockholders and could not properly be
applied to any such purpose.
1t has been learned by Receiver O'Byrne
and Attorney Spalding that w. c. Hale,
while managing the affairs of the build
ing and loan association, bought out
the Hermitage Building aud Loan As
sociation of Nashville Tenn, concern
which was on the verge of collapse at
the time the trade was made He issued
stock of the Southern Mutual to make
the trade, and until the visit of the gen
tlemen named to Nashville no one con-
nectcd with the company here appeared
to know anything of the transactions as
Hale had made no record of it on the
books of the company.
