LIFE IN LONDON.
Some of the Things Which the
american Visitor Soon Learns.

Americans sojourning in London are often
puzzled in their first few hours there to account
for the frequent blowing of mouth whistles IN
their vicinity, resembling the blasts Of sound
with which the New-York postnan accompanies
the delivery of mail A Yankee who arrived
IN the British metropolis one night this summer
greatly fatigued by his journey retired early
at his lodgings, but was kept awake until mid
night by the unaccustoned and continuous blow
ing of whistles, which suggested to his droWsy
brain that letter carriers were calling every rev
minutes at the adjoining houses.
st breakfast the next morning he remarked
that he had often heard Of London's frequent
mai deliveries, but he had never supposed there
were so many Of them IS he had heard the pre-
vfous evening
"Heard?" inquired his seatrnate.
.-yes- didn't you hear the postnen blowing
theft Whistles every few minutes until after
midnight"

HARGIs FAMILY VOTED OUT.
Shot Gun Rule at an End in Bloody
kentucky Town.

A bit of pleasant news comes from
the Kentucky county known as
"Blcody Breathitt, where the "bet-
ter element went to the polls at the
last election and voted down and out
the Hargis family, who have ruled the
country with the help of shot guns for
ten years past. During that time there
are said to have been seventy-fve cold
blooded murders in Breathitt with no
more than five or six convictions.
James H. Hargis, who has held the
office of judge of the county court dur
ing this reign of terror, naturally
talks of contesting the election, but
the majority against him is so large
that if he attempts to upset it by vi
olence he will probably be killed for
his crime.

ABOUT THAT "JINT 'SPUTE"
THE ATLANTA CANDIDATES EN-
CHANGE SHARP LETTERS.

Glow of the Calcium Envelopes the
distinguished Gentlemen. The
Openin@ Gun Giving Trouble.
Following Hon. Clark Howell S chal-
lenge to Hon. Hoke Smith 20 meet him
in Joint debate in Columbus there
ensued quite warm correspondence.
Mr.. Smith expressed qualification that
| Mr.. Howell had consented to meet him
and then went on to say he would
heartily cooperate with Mr.: Howell
in bringing about joint discussions
which, he said, might assist the voters
of the state to determine to some ex-
tent the fitness of the Irrespective can
didates for governor. He suggested
the appointment of three friends on
each side to arrange the times and
places of meetings, and said that while
he had received no invitation from the
people of Columbus to speak there
Columbus would be agreeable to him
as one of the places.
Charged with Evasion.
In reply Mr.. Howell charged Mr..
Smith with evading acceptance of his
invitation to meet him at Columbus
by saying he had received no invita-
ton. He charges Mr.. Smith with talk
ing a good deal about joint debates at
long distance and then beating around
the bush when the question is put up
to him. He expresses the hope that
Mr.. Smith will find way to meet him
on the occasion of his opening address,
which, he states, will be one of the
most important, as it will be more or
less the basis of others that are to fol-
low. After his opening address, Mr..
Howell states, he will be glad to ar
range with Mr.. Smith and other can
didates for a series of joint discussions
in which all candidates may partici-
pate.
Mr.. Howell's reply somewhat nettied
Mr.. Smith, who charges Mr.. Howell, |
in his second letter, with purposely
misconstruing his first letter in order |
to make political capital for himself.
Mr.. Smith says the suggestions about
long distance discussion and evasion |
are wholly unwarranted. He concludes |
by accepting unqualifediy the invita-
ton to meet Mr.. Howell in Columbus,
and then renews his suggestion for the
appointment of friends to arrange for
a series of Joint discussions.
HoweIrs Letter the Final One.
The final letter written by Mr.. How
ell suggests that as Mr.. Smith named |
no date for the meeting between Jan.
and Is he either do so or let the
matter be determined by one friend |
named by each of them. Mr.. Howell |
says that as to any construction that
he may have placed on Mr. Smiths |
previous letter the correspondence
speaks for itself. Mr.. Howell repeats
that after his opening address he will
be glad to take up with Mr.. Smith,
and all the other candidates who may
wish it, the question of series of Joint
debates.
Mr.. Howell concludes with the state
ment that in the meantime he will be
clad to exchange with Mr.. Smith the
names of the friends to represent them
at the Columbus meeting.
