No firing took place last night but at
10 o clock this morning the artillery
opened on the town. The Moorish gun
ners showed utter incapacity in handling
their guns and the infantry fired haphaZ-
ard. Two shells dropped inside the fort
ress without reply and thereupon a body
of the sultan's troops charged, shouting,

Engineer.

The insertion of a want ad in
the want column of one of the At

the city council of Americas to the
end of securing a city engineer and

council, by the way, has raised the
salary of the office very considerably,
and the want" ad to be inserted in
the Atlanta paper will announce that
Americas will pay $125 per month to
anyone who will take the job and fill
it. This is an increase of several
hundred dollars over the salary paid
heretofore, and it is expected that
there will be a pellmell rush of idle
