BROUGHTON AGAIN RAMPANT.
ANOTHER ATTACK on THE MAYOR
AND CITY COUNCIL.

Charged That Certain Members of
AtIantn's Council Had Borrowed
Money From II. VI Atkinson on
Poor Security-Went for Council
for Failure to Punish the Mayor.
Criticised the journal and That
Paper Came BACK n I Him.
Atlanta. July o The sensation Of the
hour in Atlanta is the attack made by Dr.
L. G. Broughton OF the Tabernacle Bap-
fist Church last night upon the City Coun-
Gil because Of It's failure TO punish Mayor
woodward for his misconduct.
For some time past DIR. Broughton has
made practice Of roasting the mayor
every Sunday night and the people have
ceased to pay much attention to what he
saws on that score: but when he declared
from his pulpit Sunday night that certain
members of the City Council had borrowed
about $1,000 from Mr.. II. N. Atkinson on
real estate security worth only about one
third Of that amount. he injected new in
terest into the fight he has been making
upon the administration. Dr. Broughton
declared he was prepared to prove his
charges.
1t was learned to-day that representa-
tive of Dr. Broughton had spent consider
able time last week examining the records
Of mortgages at the Court House and it
is supposed he furnished the information
upon which the charges were based.
The Loans Referred to.
II is known that two members OF the
through Mr.. Atkinson as agent for Boston
capitalists. but the security given by both
is worth far NOR than the amount of the
loan. In both cases II is said the mort
gagged property is bringing rental to more
than pay the interest on the loan. one
OF the loans was made before the borrower
had been elected to Council. These are
said to be the only cases upon record
in which Mr.. Atkinson has loaned money
TO councilmen.
DR. Broughton declared at a meeting of
the Baptist ministers this morning that
be had done what ne considered pubic
duty in exposing what he termed the rot
tenness OF the city government He
added that he was through for the pres
ent, but that if he found anything else
or color in the city government he would
not hesitate 10 tel the public.
IAN the corporations in the country
have not enough money to stop my
mouth, he declared.
journal Came Back at Him.
The Atlanta Journal was also roasted
by DR.. Broughton for declining to print
a notice giving the subject of his sermon
last night in its Saturday paper. Mr..
Atkinson is one of the owners of the
Journal and Is treasurer of the company.
He is out of the city. In an editorial this
afternoon the Journal says:
n he
Journal last night for declining 10 print
an extended advance notice of one of his
harangues. So many statements of an
unclean character emanate from the
mouth of Mir. Broughton that the Jour
nal cannot afford to open it's columns for
the purpose of advertising a thing abso-
lutely harmful to the community. Mr..
Broughton also made an attack on one
of the Journals stockholders, who hap
pened TO be out of the city, but who. upon
his return. will prove quite able 20 de-
fend himself"

MOUND BUILDERS TEMPLE.
Supposed to Have Been Found In
Carolina. Near Beaufort.


Beaufort. s. c. July 23.-Little Island
some twelve miles from here, contains an
interesting relic of the ancient race of
aloLno builders The discovery Of frag-
ments of ancient pottery on a high Dluf
extending due north and south along the
eastern Il. argin of deep creek excited
the cupidRy Of the negroes inhabitin5
the neighbortood. who reported their find
and exhibited their specimens TO Prof
Clarence B, Moore, president of the
Academy OF Natural Sciences in Phlla-
delphia. With two associates, Prof.
Moore CHANGED to be near by conducting
researches. The three scientists repaired
ne once to the spot indicated to them hy
an Did I.cgro who volunteered to &C. IS

almost PaTpeIdicularly TO a hight of ten
feet above the level Of the creek. SUI
mounting which was an artificial en-
hankment twenty feet hign, resembling,
in contour. huge ablong dome, on which
were ii ree full grown oak trees. The
largest treasured twelve feet in diarne-
ter. and is estimated 10 be several cen
turtles old. 4 large force of negroes was
set to work excavating under Prof
Moore's direction, with the result that
perfect structure. formed of a quality of
clay that tho professor was convinced
could no, have been obtained within goo
miles Of the coast, was unearthed This
structure Saws on the original bluff tr:t
feet back ron its present edge. and IS
wonderfully well preserved. In shape IL
is almost square. having but one en-
trance, in the northeast corner. What
appears to have served as an altar
stands exactly, by actual and careful
measurement in the middle Of the west
ern wall The hight Of the wall, which
is absolutely uniform, is five feet and four
inches and the impression in the clay
made by wooden rafters is distinctly Wis
ible. In one or two portions the dark
brown powdered remains of the rafters
themselves can be discerned adher1ng to
the clay. The floor, also Of clay. is hard
as adamant and absolutely level. Spaces,
appearing at regular intervals, along he
top Of the structure suggest that roof

four inches in thickness, and are fully rs
substantial as any constructed of m)dern
brick. The dimensions of this prehistoric
ruin. together with the fragmeutary Ie-
mains of pottery found within and about
it, would seem TO Indicate that il was
used by its builders a temple How
many centuries have elapsed since 1t W.

also a standard of measurement not in
ferior to that employed in our day. Prof.

MAKING TOPOGRAPHIC SURVEY
An Important work Now in Progress
in North Georgia.


Atlanta, July pa topographic survey
Of the northern part Of the state is now
in progress. The work is being done un-
der the supervision OF Topographer Albert
S. Pike. 1t has been several years since
the government has made such a survey
of the northern part OF the state, and
the present work is a result Of the efforts
OF State Geologist Yates, who made sew
eral trips to Washington recently TO Sc
cure IT,
The survey will be of greet benefit to
the geological department and to that
portion Of the state where the work is
being done. The headquarters of the
surveying party IS at Blairsvile, in Union
county where Mr.. Blair, has a large
party assisting him. The last Congress
made large appropriation for topogra-
phic work. and il is very likely that $40 =
600 Will be expended in Georgia.
A great portion Of the work done by the
geological department IS based on the
maps made by the topographers and
maps, which will be issued as soon as the
survey is completed will be of valuable
assistance TO Prof. Yates and his assist
ants.

tober when they are hand picked and
placed in a dry room to ripen.
Paulding says the apples are thorough

and grinding apples is very great
You will know the difference between
crushed app es and ground apples il you

Andrew Hanley Esq, President and Gen
eral Manager Suwanee Springs Co.:
Dear Sir-For a period of more than ten
years I was a constant sufferer from the
pa n, inconvenience and anxiety of that
troublesome disease, known as Stone
in the Bladder" and any one who has
been afflicted in that way knows what it
means. l suffered all the time, and often
to such an extent IL almost made my
life miserable. / was treated by dffere Mt
physicians In the various cities where I
have been stationed from time to time
and tried numerous mineral waters with
little effect Six months ago, at your sug-
&c stion, l commenced a course of Su-
vance Springs Water, and the result can
rot be told in any better or more effective
way than by truthfully saying that l am
now cured. This speaks volumes and tells
the whole story, and is induced by my
grateful appreciation for the benefit de-
rived. Think of it, after spending hun
dreds of dollars for medicines and doc
tors bills a few gallons of Suwanee
Springs Water cured me, and without
even visiting the springs, which proves
your claim that the water is just as ben
eficial when drank at home. l shall al
ways deem IL duty l owe to the water
and to mankind generally to tell my ex-
perience. and you have my free permits
sion to use this letter as you see fit
Trusting that If you publish it, it may
be the means of doing as much good to
others.

MUST HAVE HER OWN RACES.
Atlanta VIII Not Be Governed by the
Smaller Towns.

Atlanta. July 3-RadicaI changes
were made at a meeting of the Racing
Committee of the Georgia Fair Associa-
ton this morning.
The principal matter that came up was
the question of whether Atlanta should be-
come a member OF the newly formed
Southern Interstate Racing Association.
This was decided in the negative.
As matter of fact when Mr. Martin
was elected secretary in Atlanta for the
new racing circuit. there was a hope and
a well developed one. that Atlanta would
take hold of the new racing circuit and do
ali IN It's power TO further the sport he-e.
Now 1t appears that offense has been TAX
en- at the failure of the Waycross meeting
to give Atlanta the chief say in the new
circuit and this city Will draw out and
throw in lis lot with Birmingham.
Il believe" said Mr. Martin al the meet
ing of the Racing Committee this morn
Ing, that it would be better for the sport
OF this city for US to cooperate with
Birmingham or Augusta which are TO
nave racing this fail, preferably Birmng-
nam Atlanta cannot be dependent upon
little places like Waycross and Valdosta
in case like this. and they have placed
this city in the background; therefore.
ONiu suggest that we nave nothing to
do with it."
This view seemed to meet the approvaI
OF Cape John H Miller. Mr. John II. OFT
ley and Mr. Brooks Morgan of the com
mittee. Mr.. Ottley expressed the opinion
that Atlanta would possibly do better
To go it alone. This seemed 10 be the
popular view of the committee. The mat
ter OF racing was referred back to Mr.
Tranfor for final arrangements. He Is
now In the North making arrangements
with the owners 10 bring their horses TO
Atlanta In October, when the racing be-
gins, and he himself will be here on
Sep. TO put the track in condition and
arrang. for stabling the racers when they
arrive.
