NJ. de Blowitz, the Paris correspond

civilized world agog by publishing a
story, which he declares to be we'll
authenticated, that Czar Nicholas, OF
Russia. meditates abdication Of his
throne in favor of Grand Duke Mich
ael Various reasons are assigned for
the act alleged to be in meditation, and
the keynote throughout is disappoint-
ment But NJ. de Blowitz has a repu-
tation, and It will be noticed that his
letter contains several saving clauses
saving to the czar, and saving to him
self. In other words. he declares that
the czar meditates abdication, but that
he may be dissuaded from his purpose.
A letter of that sort is reasonably
safe. II the czar should abdicate M. de
Blowitz could pat the world on the
back and say: Il told you sol" On
the other hand, if Nicholas should con-
tine to exercise the functions of Auto
crat OF All the Russias" the shrewd
correspondent could face the world
with the saving clause. and contend
that he had been dissuaded from exc
cutting his purpose. Until the car ac'
tually abdicates the reading world viii
take but little stock in the story.

A week later people turning out Of the
mark one sweltering afternoon were horri-
fed TO see a hanson cab, the horse of which
had evidently bolted, dash furiously past the
corner and on up Piccadilly. Following It
with their eyes up the hill they saw it, after
escaping by some extraordinary chance IN
Vulnerable collisions, at length came to
sudden and violent stop, while down the
wind came r0srd after round Of hearty
cheering
What actually happened, according 20 the
evidence Of bystanders was this: The cab,
which contained young lady Of great per-
sonal attractions, was heading straight Tor
the big lamppost in the middle Of the road,
collision with which would have meant little
! short of humiliation, when gentleman, i'm
macuiatelv dressed from top TO toe, sprang
from the path and threw himself bodily onto
/ the horses bride For some yards he was
/ dragged violently along, half on the ground,
| half in the air, but still retaining has grip on

from the infuriated animal. A moment
more. gnd IN the very nick of time, success
crowned his efforts. The horse was brought
up painting within a foot or two Of the post,
while cheer after cheer broke out from the
gaping crown.
Another hero had been added to the list IN
London: another man had grasped the op-
portunity that comes to most men but once
IN a lifetime. How often have men prayed
for a runaway horse that they might display
the bravery Of which they are capable, and
how seldom does the opportunity come te
them.
II takes genius as well as a steady nerve
and hand to win a hero's crown, and one
young man had had the genius as well as the
nerve His genius might never be suspected
but his bravery would never be questioned
and that IS what be desired. Love had &c

Cotton NH Men in the State VIII
Warmly Oppose 1t.

Warmly Oppose IL.
Atlanta, Nov. S-The cotton mill men
have started a fight on the child labor
bill, introduced by Senator Nesbitt of this
district.
The first opposition comes from Macon
Representative Ellis of Bibb to-day re-
ceived telegram from Macon attorney
asking that the hearing this afternoon be-
fore the Senate Committee on Labor and
Labor Statistics be continued until GER
tain of his clients could come to Atlanta
TO appear before the committee. In defer
ence to the wishes of these gentlemen the
consideration of the bill was deferred till
tomorrow by the committee.
It is also reported that there is to be
concerted action upon the part of the mill
men of the state In opposing the measure.
1t now appears that the child labor bill
Will have 20 run the gauntlet of stubborn
opposition before it becomes a law.
The bin provides that children under 10
years old cannot work in factories and
those between the ages of 10 and IA only
when the superintendent of the mill makes
an affidavit that they have attended school
for at least twelve weeks for the year
they are sought TO be employed Ii is no,
thought that the mill men will fight the
first provision, but their opposition is di
rected against the latter
Another relormatory bill is being prepar-
ed to be introduced this session 1t is
being groomed by the ladies and they will
beseige the members with appeals and ne
utions in the hope of passing it.

INVESTIGATING SHORTAGES.
L. j. Hin May Be Made Union Ticket
Agent in Atlanta.


Atlanta, Nov ga called meeting of
the Board Of Control of the union depot
was held in the office of President Smith
its chairman, this morning
1t was the first meeting held in many
months, and there was much speculation
as to its object. Representatives of the
various lines were at the meeting. A men,
Der of the board stated that no action had
been taken by the four roads in regard
to the election of a successor to Col Al
bert Howell union ticket agent
The opinion seems to prevail in railroad
circles that Mr.. l.. J. Hill. who has been
acting agent since Col. Howell was check
ed out. will be elected TO the position.
President George c. Smith stated this
morning that there were no new develop
ments in regard 10 the alleged shortages
as the final report of the expert account
ants had not been received, although a
number Of reports have been submitted
from time to time during the investigation
of the books of eX-Auditor T. ]. Hunter
An interesting branch of the Atlanta
and West Point Railroad shortage affair
has found its way into a justice court of
this city. Mr.. James w. Warner has filel
suit for $75, the amount for his salary as
clerk in the freight department and city
ticket agent in the city of Atlanta Mr.
Warner is alleged to be short about 81 ,200
in his accounts with the company, but this
he denies. His salary for the month Of
october was not paid and he instituted
suit in Judge j. y. Bateman's court for
the money.
The question OF an alleged shortage may
play an important part in the trial, and
for that reason more than ordinary inter
est will be attached 70 the outcome.
