A Defeated Candidate to Get Even
With "a Political Enemy.
Atlanta, Ga, Oct 12.-The recent city
election promises to be far-reaching in It's
results in more ways than one.
Among the candidates for aldermen was
George P. Howard, now councilman from
the Fourth ward. He was defeated, and
among those who contributed to his DOWN
fab was Mllt Camp, councilman from the
First ward Howard is very sore over
his defeat, and as a means OF getting
even he proposes to show that Camp is
guilty of malfeasence in office. There is
a law in the city code making it illegal
for any one connected with the city gov
eminent TO sell goods of any kind to the
city. Howard claims that Camp, who is
a wholesale dealer in grain, has been long
a violator of this law aud has been SELL
ing goods to the various departments
Formal charges of this kind viii prob
ably be made at the next meeting of the
City Council.
Camp denies the charge.
It is a fact that several city officers
have at divers times violated the law re-
ferred to, and several Of them are quakng
in their shoes lest their doings may be
brought to light.

The two men met for the first time since
the election in the Aragon Hotel last
night Hawkins offered his hand to Orme'
but Orme refused to touch the proffered
hand and proceeded TO express his opinion
of Hawkins in language not elegant, but
very expressive.
In fact, he cursed Hawkins forcibly and
applied vile names to him. Hawkins did
not resent the insult at the time, but II is
his intention so it is said, to challenge
Orme TO mortal combat.
Early this morning Hawkins telegraphed

Queer story of Two Lakes.
From the London News.


The Wetternsee In Sweden like so many
other lakes, has long enjoyed the local
reputa ton of being bottomless pit. The
Swedish scientist have now destroyed
the venerable legend, for in the measure
ments taken a few days ago, they have
successfully demonstrated that the great
est depth of the lake is only 119 meters.
There still remains, however, a series of
mysteries which science must be content
to leave unsolved-at least for a time. 1t
is not only legendary belief, but there
is a quasi-scientific ground for the queer
supposiiion that living creatures, animals
and vegetable can, and do make journeys
to and fro between the high northern
lake of Wettern and the South German
Lake of Constance. This bold conclusion
has been partly justified by the appear
ance of exactly the same fauna, and even
of the same animal life, in the Swedish
and the Swabian inland seas. 1t is even
asserted that whenever there is a storm
on the Lake of Constance the Lake of
Wettern begins sympathetically to roll
and swell, and that the southern lake is
similarly moved by any agitation in the
distant northern lake. The Eleine Zeitung
soberly declares this sympathetic phe-
nomenon to be a known fact, but consid-
eUately adds that we have to wait some
time for the rational explanation of it.

EASTMAN'S NEW RAILROAD.
A Road TO Connect with Boats on the
OcmuIgee River.

Atlanta, Ga, Oct. 12.-The people of
Eastman intend to have competitive
freight rates, and will build a railroad to
accomplish that object.
The Secretary of State to-day issued a
charter to the Eastman and Ocmulgee
River Railroad Company, which is capt.
talized at $25 600, and is to run eighteen
miles from Eastman to tap the Georgia
and Alabama at or near Rhine. on the
Ocmulgee river.
The road was projected to secure com
petitive rates for Eastman which is now
dependent solely on the Southern Rail
way. The people there thinks the South
ern charges them higher rates than they
are entitled to. and they propose to help
themselves 10y securing water competition
by the Ocmulgee and railroad competition
by the Georgia and Alabama Railway.
