marini as "Azucena." Possessing voice
of marvellous compass, combined with
pramatic ability OF most high order, Col
lamarin is fast gaining the top rung OF
tie ladder of fame.
To particularize would require, indeed,
an extended article. Suffice it to say
that each individual member of the com
pany is an artist, and such singing was
never before heard in Central City.
Though the audience was small, yet it
was appreciative, and this counted for

there Abel Preston and his son, Dick,
are not of the same opinion concerning
the subject of marriage. Abel contends
that man is infinitely better off in a
state of single blessedness, while the son

This action on the part of Dick means
disinh eritance, and the situations and
complications that arise for the older
Preston are too farcial for explanation.
Brown is an assumed name and there are
no less than three women figuring as Mrs.
Brown. These complications arise from
a call of the elder Preston upon the

H. M. ATKINSON DENOUNCED

Atlanta, Ga, August Flowing to de-
nunciation of Harry NJ. Atkinson, formerly
of Boston, Mass, and nephew of Edward
S. Atkinson of that city. by W. s. Thomp
son, councilman from the Fourth ward, al
a meeting of the general council this even
ing, the police reserve was called out to
preserve order and quell what threatened
at one time to be a riot
Several days ago card was published in
one of the newspapers in this city support
ing a petition for franchises which Mr. At
kinson was asking from the city. In the
card several members of the council and
board of aldermen were said to nave col
lars around their necks branded with the
name of the opposing corporation, the At
lanta Railway and Power company.
Mr.. Atkinson is capitalist well-known
in Boston, and is secretary of the Park
and Belt Railroad company. Councilman
Thompson resented what ne termed
as an insult and said of Mr..
Atkinson, after intimating that
the latter had falsifed regarding certain
statements before a committee: 'fie is the
meanest of all creation. Plutarch said,
Lying is the vice of slavery Men who
march to the cannon's mouth where blue
belied yankees We're as thick as hops are
here told by one of that ilk that we have
a master. He makes my blood boil The
idea that man can come from that seat
of learning and say that We have a mas
ter-oh, 1t makes my blood boil to be
singled out for the venom of this viper
and then to know what a cur he Is, be-
meath the whip of his master, money. And
then he thinks he is the equal of gentle
men. What insult could be greater than
ths?'
Mr. Atkinson was also denounced by AL
dernSln Turner. After the session adjourned
Mr.. Atkinson aecosted Colonel Thompson
and before words could pass they started
for each other, when the reserve OF police
interfered and prevented blows.

FOOT BALL TEAM
University of Alabama Will Have Strong
One in Field

1t will be remembered that the board of
trustees of the University of Alabama at
their meeting in June granted each of the
athletic teams of that institution the right
to take three trips away from Tuscaloosa
each season.
For three years past the teams had been
prohibited from leaving the campus, and
consequently athletics at the university
had become greatly demoralized So much
SO, that last spring the students made no.
provision for a football team this fall.
Now, however, that athletics are again on
such favorable basis, an effort will be
made to put out the best possible football
team this fall. For this purpose, ]. w.
Stickney, a student now residing at the
university. has been appointed by the fac
ulty as manager of the team until college
opens, when the students will select Mr..
Stickney or whoever they choose as cap
tain and start their athletic career anew.
