BIG ATLANTA FIRE
Started in Terminal Hotel,
Burns Two Squares.

Atlanta, Ca, May 8.-Two solid
business blocks of Atlanta are in
ruins to-day as a result of fire
which threatened for time to carry
its destruction through the business
section of the city and perhaps wipe
out the entire downtown district.
The fire loss may be conservatively
estimated at $1,500.000. The Ter
minal Hotel, one of the largest in
the city, is a mass of bricks. 1t had
on its register 200 guests when the
fire started block away. Every
one escaped. Nearby were several
other small hotels, but in these there
was no loss of life.
The fire started in the Schlessing-
er-Meyer Baking Company. Madison
and Nelson streets, at $3.50 o'clock
this morning, and within few min
utes the building was in flames.

were brought by the English house
wives from their homes in the old
country to their gardens in the new
world. Others were transplanted in
hay or forage, and others came with
the cereals. The wheat, rye and cat
bags from the British Isles contained
not only the seeds that were to fur
nish breadstuffs, but also the weeds
destined to plague the farmers of
this country to the end of time.
People thought nothing then of the
expense and loss to which their de-
scendants would afterwards be sub
Jected. twenty-five or thirty years
ago Scotch emigrant carried with
him to Australia a few thistle heads
in order that he might see his coun-
try's plant growing around his cot
tage. Now the Scotch thistle is al
most as much of nuisance in Aus

FUZZY PEACH IS KING CONG. BARTLETT LAUGHS
This Years Crop One of Larg-
est in Our History.
GEORGIA TAKES FIRST RANK

This State Has 100000 Trees Now
Bearing, and Raised Five Thous-
and Carloads. Big Crops in New
Jersey, Delaware and Maryland. e.
The peach is now the king of the
fruit world, and will continue an I'M
disputed reign for the next three
months, when it will make way for
the apple. All the southern states
are now shipping their peaches north
in hitherto unheard-of quantities.
Georgia takes first rank as a peach
growing state. This great state has
now 100000 peach trees in bearing.
The crop from these trees will aggre-
gate more than 5000 carloads. Per-
haps no better idea may be conveyed
as to the size of this years crop than
by comparing it with the crop of last
year-that was considered a fair av-
erage crop-when the shipments ag-
gregated only 1900 cars, as against
the 5000 cars this year,
1T is not alone by the stupendous
size of the crop that the Georgia
peach commands such attention this
year, but also by its excellent quail
ty. Not only has the weather been
just right for their proper growth
and ripening, but the trees are alse
mostly free from disease d,
| New Jersey which for so IONS
held front rank as a producing re
giOn for peaches, has lost it's claim
because of diseased trees. The south
| Jersey crop is always very uncertain
but this year is much bigger and bet.
ter than the average.
| Delaware has an unprecedentedly
large crop. Not during the last Is
years has there been anything like it
The crop will reach over 100000
baskets, of is quarts or a little more
than half busheI each. This would
make about 5000 carloads, of which
Philadelphia will receive from 400 tC
500 carloads.
Sixty per cent of the crop will be
sold at the orchards. For the first
time in two years the Baltimore can
neries have started up, and they are
buying the peaches from the orchards
of Delaware and Maryland in enor-
nous quantities. They are making q
speciality of buying them only where
they may be shipped into the can
neries by water, as the railroads are
taking advantage of the opportunity
and charging very high rates for such
perishable freight as peaches.

SILVER DOLLARS AT DENVER.
Visitor Was Given WheeIbarrOw Full
in Change for $1,000 Bill.

One of the many surprises for east
ern visitors at the recent democratic
convention in Denver was the general
use of iron dollars that is, silver
to the exclusion of paper money.
It is related that a "well-heeled'
Tammany man passed a $1,000 bill
over the bar of leading hotel and
waited for his change. Tom" said
the bartender, turning to the colored
porter, take IS cents out of that
and hand the gentleman his change. "
The negro never turned a hair. He
took the bill, walked around to the
stock room, and in 40 seconds came
trundling a wheelbarrow load, touch
ed his hat and said: "Yo' change,
sab" There was the change-999
silver dollars and a 25-cent piece!
