which were successfully treated and
finally driven together. Then the pro-
fessor tackled the man-killing Middle
ton horse, Thunderbolt While the
preliminaries of Thunderbolt's lessor
were being conducted, Prof Gleason's
assistant, DR.. Anderson, put a great
kicking bay through the usual course,
finally bringing him to a state of per-
feet docility.
DR.. Anderson, although a horse
trainer Of no mean ability, can not
handle the guy lines and training
bride to any degree as effectually as
Gleason
1t is reported that Prof Gleason
delights in handling a fierce and vi
cious kicker. If this be true he must
have been in high glee last night
while handling Thunderbolt The big
Middleton sorrel is the most proficient
hoof manipulation that has been
handled in the show during it's stay in
Madison. He can kick with one, two
three or all four feet at once and
seemingly in different directions and
with remarkable accuracy with each
foot He can, if occasion require, kick
while lying down or rolling over. AL
though Prof Gleason made great pro-
gress with Thunderbolt last night, the
horses education is by no means com
plete. Last night he was driven
around the ring with the bay which
had been handled by Dr. Anderson
and tonight Prof Gleason promises tc
drive him singly.
After Thunderbolt has been trans
formed from wild man-killing brute
to a gentle family driving horse, he
will be ratified off. Each spectator to-
night and tomorrow night will receive
number, duplicates Of which will be
drawn and the holder of the
lucky number will be presented with
the educated horse.
Besides the second lesson in Thun-
derbolt's course of training, a power
full team of grays will be handled to-
night as we'll as some other choice
specimens of supposedly unmanage-
able horsefesh.

Vagahonds.

God gave unto the philistine,
Who tolls at desk or mart,
The silver pieces broad and fine
And broidered coat and smart,
But gave, oh brothers, for our part
The rowing feet and free;
The children of the merry heart
Life's yagabonds are we.
The elder son hath glowing hearth
And quiet home and house;
The younger son hath all the earth
Wherein he NAV carouse.
The elder son his goodly spouse
For once and all has ta'en;
Upon the youngers tattered blouse,
More heads than one have lain.
Then no, for stirrup and for spur,
Across the world away
Nor pause to snatch a kiss from her
We courted yesterday.
IT'S some must dance and some
must play,
Some pay and some go free.
God keep you, sirs, who stare and
stay
Life's yagabonds are we!

IT'S this little reel
And the old-time wheel


And the old-time wheel
That my grandmother used to spin
That brings back the days
Of youth, and the ways
OF that good old dame, when within.
Her dear little cot
Twas my happy lot
To sit by her fireplace and hear
The hum of this wheel,
Or noisy quaint reel,
The stories to me that were dear.
All! quickly years fly;
A grandma am I,
And I, like that sweet dame of yores
Love dearly to spin
Out doors, not within,
BY meadows and forest and shore.
This wheel, to speak truth,
Is not ofmy youth,
And though I am not young and fair
To sit by the fire
Is not my desire
l greatly prefer the fresh air.
We're heated by steam,
So how can | dream d
AS grandmother did long ago.
By the old fireplace
Shone a delicate face
But mine has a ruddier glow.
Dull cares left behind
On wings Of the wind,
And youths strong renewal / feel.
To meet happy health,
Contentment and wealth,
spin far away on my wheel.

Atlanta's Station.

The Atlanta papers seem to have
abandoned the idea Of inducing the
state to build union passenger station
in that city upon land owned by the
state. A recent number Of the Journal
had suggestion for the building, in
Atlanta, of twentieth century station
by the railroads and the city.
No matter how it gets it, Atlanta
needs new station and it is to be hoped
that the present plans will not mis-
carry. ! cannot help thinking, how
ever, that it was the erroneous law
opinion that made the appropriation
for the station constitutional, when it
did not provide that the amount used
for that purpose was to be returned to
the bonded debt fund, was largely re-
sponsible for the defeat of the measure
by the Legislature. 1t gave the oppo-
nents of the bill all the opportunity

The Beers Again.

After period of great rever3es which
indicated the certain, complete and
prompt overthrow OF the Boer cause
before the relocated hosts Of Britain,
the hardy burghers, collecting their
scattered forces Tor at least the few
that have not fallen in the hands
Of the enemy. have again become
quite active in their offensive opera
tions against the British. They have
invaded Cape Colony, which is British
territory, and are causing panic in
that region. Many of the Dutch stock
of the Cape are joining their standards,
and are helping to spread in the colony
discomfort with British rule, Kitchen
err, Notwithstanding he hes vast army
on the spot, is calling loudly for rein
forcements; and Lord Roberts is so de-
pressed in London over the situation
in South Africa that he has requested
that all great functions and demonstra-
tions cease.
No matter what the final result OF
this war may be, it has already cost
Great Britain in blood and treasure
many, many times more than the Trans
vaal is worth or ever will be worth to
her. A man fighting for his home, his
liberty and his institutions is always q
better soldier than one who battles
simply for glory or mercenary consider
atoms. This explains why about fif-
teen Thousand Beers are too much for
one hundred and forty or fifty thousand
Britons. The British. soldiers are weary
and wish so return home, and if Kitch-
ener's re-inforcements are not soon at
hand there's no telling what will hap

A MELANGE OF
LIVE TOPICS
Penned for Journal Readers
by a Local Scribe.

The Macon Telegraph proposes that
in the future the South nominate no
presidential electors pledged to vote
for any of the candidates nominated by
the varions parties of the country
The Telegraph thinks that as the South
furnishes the bulk of the votes of the
Democratic party, it should have some
voice in the affairs of the party, such as
furnishing the candidate and debating
the platform. and if these rights can
not be obtained, the electors repre-
senting the southern states should cast
their ballots for the candidates of that
party which pledges itself to act most
favorably towards this section.
If this plan could be successfully ex-
ecuted it would probably be wise
move for the South, but it is to be feared
that there are obstacles in the way
which would render its operation im-
possible. 1t would cast responsible
ties upon the electors which it would
be unwise to entrust with any small
body of representatives, no matter how
honorable or able they might be. They
would have the right to determine, in
case two propositions were made to
them, which one would prove most adj
vantageous to the South and all vote
accordingly; or each individual might
select for his vote the candidate which
he might think would best fulfill the
required conditions. In either case the
majority of the people, il informed of
the proposition, might think very diff
ferently from the electors as TO what
would constitute the best interests of
the South. The opportunity, too, in
such cases for log-rolling, fraud, bribery
and the like would be very great. Every
presidential election would cause i'll
every state the scenes witnessed in
some legislatures, attendant upon the
election of United States senator.

they desired to cry unconstitutional
and to make it appear that Atlanta was
trying to ride rough shod over the con-
stitution in order to carry out it's own
selfish purposes.
If the matter is approached constitu-
tionally and with the proper spirit it
might be successful in the legislature
at no distant day in the future.

EXPERIMENTS WITH NEW BEAR
 INGS.

1 Superintendent Henney Conducts Them l at New Britain-Have Been Used I Here.
 | The experiments recently conducted | by Superintendent John Henney of the
 motive power department of the New | York, New Haven and Hartford rail- | road, with the Moffet roller bearing cars, have proved eminently satisfac- tory, and it is extremely probable that before long the company will give an | order for a few of these cars. MT. Henney carried on his experi-
 ments oif the third rail system between New Britain and Hartford, and ac- cording to reliable authority he was
 much impressed with their easy motion and other superior qualities. The Moffet roller bearing car is not
 entirely new In this section. However,
 there are few who know that few of
 them have been in operation on the Shore Line division of the Consolidated
 road for the past month. They are of gondola shape and have been used for
 the transportation of coal only. There
 Is no noticeable difference in the trucks only upon close inspection, when 1t is seen that the Journals are made in con- nection with the roller bearings. The
 bearings are similar to the ball bear ings on a bicycle and any rides knows with what ease they can be worked. The bearings are inclosed in dust tight journal box to protect the bear ings from the admission of any for eign matter, which would tend to im- pede their movement Another feature of the roller bearing Is that they do not require as frequent oiling as the old style bearings. which is known as a journal bearing or brass bearing, one of which is set on either side of the journal at.
 The iroller-bearing is novel inven- ton and the cars which have been in use on the Shore Line division are held in much better favor by those who un- derstand their working.

- ------------------- THE STOCK MARKET,
Professional Traders Make Quick Turns

| | New York, Sept, 5.-The operations
 of professional traders, to which busi-
 ness on the stock exchange is now al-
 most wholly confined, do not make
 more than a superficial impression upon | the market When the professionals perceive that in selling stocks they are | getting into sparse company, they | turn with the utmost cheerfulness to | the buying side, as they did vest erday 1 and for time this morning; and when | the buying demand diminishes and there seems danger of becoming loaded up with long stock, they sell with equal alacrity, as they did this after
 noon. The news from day to day may continue much the same without dis turbing values in such market. As | a background lie the strong general conditions of business, the prospect
 that the interruption to the prosperous
 conduct of the steel industry will not
 be much longer continued and the de- termiation with which controlling in- terests in the great properties cling to their holdings. It is the obvious policy of large capital at this time to discour-
 age active speculation, pending the
 clearing of the autumn money require
 ments, and at the same time offer ef-
 fective support for prices of securities
 when threatened.
 The principal development to-day
 was the renewal of the interior de-
 mand for currency. Yesterdays sub
 treasury operations yielded a small
 balance to the banks on account of
 payments for gold deposited at Pacific
 coast points and there were further
 payments for the same account to- day.
 But it is obvious that hte current gov ernment surplus will render nugatory these relieving influences The offer ings of United States bonds for re- demption under the offer of the secre- tary of the treasury have increased slightly in the last few days, but they are insignificant as an offset to the drain on account of the government revenues Wall street is discussing re- lief measures by some new action of the treasury department but no plan has been announced. Money worked firmer in all departments to-day, and sterling exchange fell an additional fraction, ana reports were in circula- tion of $500,000 engagement for ex- port. Discounts hardened in London, but the release of funds following to- days payment of an instalment on consul subscriptions may relieve that market. The weekly statements of both the Bank of England and the Bank of France show losses in gold re- serves. To-day's early show of was confined to the coalers Vanderbilts, grangers and Pacifics the railroads and Sugar and a few minor speclalties amongst the in- dustrials. The market closed weak at declines running up to points.
 Railroad bonsd were irregular in to1fe and dull. Total sales par value $1,455,- GOO.
 United States bonds were unchanged on the last call.
