Mr.. Gates talked TO the young men upon
the impor lance of extending the Y. NJ. c

slight effort that has thus far been made
and commencing greater labors TO all lie
made a comparison Of the work in TINS
country and that abroad, reasoning that
there should be as great interest taken
in the spread of the influence OF the asso-
citation abroad as at home as IL was de-
signed for the benett of young men IN eV-

He told how it Is governed, eommending
the system under which II Is managed. II
has been said thai this system is even
more complete than that by which the
Jesuits are ruled but the speaker feels
that there should be more OF the spirit OF
Christ introduced into the whole scheme.
Young men are too prone, he said to JON
the local branches of the association

HIS UNCLE on THE JURY.
But the Coroner Held Adkins for
Further Investigation.

Atlanta. March 4.-Much talk has de-
veloped here over the coroners verdict on
the killing of young Edward Brooks by
Lucius Adkins Friday night last The
young men had a trivial quarrel about
a match and Adkins claims he shot Brooks
in self-defense.
On che coroner's jury which was empan-
eied yesterday, John Neil, an uncle OF
Adkins, was chosen foreman, and it is
said Neill talked in very temperate vein,
advocating conservatism. 1t is not gen.
orally known that NELL was relative Of
the accused
A peculiar feature of the case is that
the family of Brooks, the dead man, has
rendered sympathy and coincidence TO that
OF Adkins. The coroners jury held youna
Adkins for further investigation.
