TAX PAYERS ASKED 10
 APPROVE SCHOOL SITES
Four Sites Have Been Tentatively Se- Iected by School Board-Mass
 Meeting Wednesday, Dec. 29.

Tomorrow night at 7:30 o'clock there will be a mass meeting at the Central school building for the purpose of giving the tax payers an opportunity of approving or disapproving of the general plans of the school board in reference to the selection of sites for school buildings as authorized by the issue of school bonds for s125,000.
 Five sites are to be selected and three buildings erected. After great. deal of investigation the school board has decided on the following parcels of land as the best adapted for school purposes.
 A three-acre block on west Adams street between Seventh and Ninth ave nues owned by Mrs. Pemberton. Price s13.Q00
 Block facing on Montgomery avenue between Fourth and Fifth avenues. owned by Lysander Cassidy and Judge Phillips. Price S2.1o0.
 The southeast corner of Seventh and Van Buren streets. comprising little less than two acres. owned by Mrs. George Hageman. Price S13,500
 No ste has been determined on for the coloredA children.
 Block in East Evergreen. between Third and Fifth streets, fronting on the Mcdowell road. owned by F.. J. Bennitt and company. Price 5000.
 The Pemberton block, north of the public library. is for a grammar school to cost s75.O00. It is the plan of the board to construct a s10000 or $l2,- 900 building for smaller pupils on the East Evergreen tract and to hold the Cassidy block for the future needs of the south side.

cUBA's BIG PINEAPPLE CROP.

Charge d'Affaires Fred Morris Dear ing of Havana has forwarded the Octo- Der number of Cuba. a monthly maga- zine, from which the following statis- tics concerning the pineapple produc- ton and trade of Cuba are extracted:
 Cuba exported 1.263. 466 crates (631,- 732 barrels) of pineapples during the year ending June 90. 1909, of which s62,S44 crates went to New York, 207,- SIS to Mobile. 114.SO1 to New orleans and 7S.2O2 to Knights Key. More of the fruit could have been sent to mar ket had the prices obtained made it worth while.
 Growers and shippers suffered heavy losses this past season, because the pineapple market in the United States was flooded, Cuba's tremendous crop contributing to break the market. Small settlers, Americans and Cana dians, who had planted pines hopeful ly because they are comparatively a sure crop and yield their returns soon, suffered.
 Growers are Investigating the pos sibility of canning pines for sale in Canada and England. They also expect to dispose of much fresh fruit in the Dominion. The Canadian government has an agent in Cuba studying up re- turn cargoes for a subsidized steam ship line between Canada and Cuba, and he is much impressed with the op- portunity the present crisis in the pine apple industry presents.

FLIES STOPPED A TRAIN.
Peculiar Cause that Brought an En-
gine i'm Canada to Il Standstill.

A few days ago the Grand Trunk
says the Baltimore American At
Napanee the steam box on the big
engine got overworked, or some
thing, and refused to continue the
freight train helped. The cars were
shunted to a siding, and the freight
engine brought into commission on
the express, taking it as far as
gine was secured.
Now comes the peculiar part of
the troubles of that train. When
about 20 miles out of Cornwall it
We're millions of them-perhaps bill
lions, but the train was going so fast
1t was impossible to count them. The
cars became quite dark as the train
and then the train came to another
sudden stop. The engine was full of
flies The little things were ground
into mass in the driving rod. They
were in everything on the engine.
The train had been ploughins
through the flies at a mile a minute
for several miles. The track was
covered with crushed insects and the
engine wheels baked at going round
on it. After little persuasion and
a lot of cleaning up the train went
upon it's way again.
On arrival at Montreal the engine
presented a truly curious spectacle.
The bars Of the cowcatcher were
filled right up with flies. On the
front Of the engine they were several
inches thick.

THEY'RE AFTER THE JUDGE.
Threats of Rcclfootcrs Cause Judge
to Go to st. Louis.

st. Louis, Aug. 1.-Harried by un-
ceasing threats against his life which
time and again has been jeopardized
by the bullets of unseen enemies,
Judge Harris, Of Union City, Tenn,
whose Injunction against ffShing in
Reelfoot Lake formed Tho foundation
of night riders outrages, has sought
refuge from his enemies in ST. Louis.
He is registered at the American
Hotel, and is accompanied by his wife
and secretary, j. p. AbramSon. While
Judge Harris denied himself to vis-
itors, his wife was not loath to say
that it was owing to the unceasing
threats Of the night riders that he
had come to this city.
During the past six months threat
after threat was made against the life
of Judge Harris. He was In constant
dread Of assassination, but stuck to
his post. So intense was the feeling
against him from the night"rider ele-
ment that it was impossible for him
to have light IN his house at night,
and he and his son took turn about
watching, a rifle on their knees.
Judge Harris was fired on a number
Of times, but the shots went wide.
OF late these annoyances have not
been so numerous, according to Mrs
Harris, but it was thought best for
her husbands health that they come
to this city.

out. The question is whether the
route will pass directly south after
leaving LavOnia, through Bowers
vile and Canton to Royston, and
there turn east to Commerce through
Franklin Springs, or whether 1t will
follow the hypotenuse of the trian-
gle and proceed along the more di-
rect road southeast to Commerce
through Gainesville. The Carnes
vie alternative is shorter in mile
age and leads through the county
seat OF Franklin county, upon whose
government the improving of either
road would devolve. But the Roys-
ton alternative takes advantage OF
the best mileage that the scouts ira
versed anywhere in their travels, fol
they followed that road after one OF
the. most severe storms known i'm
many years in that section, and
reached Royston from Lavonia with
out crossing even a brook.
Another question to be solved is
whether the official route from Law
rencevile into Atlanta will be fixed
through Charleston, Stone Mountain
and Decatur, as it has always been
Travelled heretofore, or whether iC
will cut across from Lawrenceville
TO Norcross, on the Southern Rail
road, to Norcome, thence via Cham
blee and the Peachtree road into At.
lanta. The roads on the Stone Noun.
tain alternative are not Of the best,
and If the connecting link from Law
renceville =" Norcross proves practi-
cable, the Slrne Mountain, Charleston
and Decatur people will have some
serious competition on their hands.
On account of the fact that the
Journals pathfinder will have so
much more work to do than the New
York Herald's pathfinder, the former
will make an earlier start, probably
making its departure from Atlanta
next Monday.

BLOOD FLOWS IN CATALONIA.
Wrath of Spanish People Kindled by
Moroccan War.

Madrid, July 2S.--The revolution
in Catalonia has reached serious
stage. There is much bloodshed, ami
artillery has been employed in the
strtets of Barcelona to quell the
outbreaks. The city is terror-strick-
en-. The revolutiohists are reported
to be fighting desperately behind bar
ricades.
King Alfonso fastened back to
Madrid from San Sebastian to-day
and at once issued a decree pro-
claiming martial law ard the suspen-
sion Of constitutional guarantees
throughout Spain.
Orders have been given to tie gov
ernors of the provinces to crush the
revolution at any cost without hest
tationf and without pity.
To-day marks black chapter IT.
Spain's history, for there was trag-
edy both at home and abroad. The
king reached here in time to learn
that part OF his army at Melillia had
had bloody battle with the Moors,
which, though finally victory for
the Spaniards, cost the lives of many
officers and total of 200 Spaniards
killed or wounded.
An exact estimate of the dead and
wounded in the clashes between the
troops and rebels in Catalonia is i'm
possible owing to the rigid censor
ship.
The centre of the rebellion is Bar.
oelona, to which place the govern
ment is rushing extra troops.
The greatest inquietude reigns in
Madrid. King Alfonso was closeted
until late hour with Premier Maui
ra and an official not was issued say
ing the situation was exceedingly
grave and that the rebellion must be
repressed with an iron hand, as the
Catalonians were struggling to en-
gulf all Spain in a revolution.
The hostility of the people against
the Moroccan campaign is based on
resentment that the nation has been
plunged in foreign war and that the
nations sons are being sacrificed
merely because of opposition to
private mining undertaking.
The lower classes, from which the
regiments are principally drawn, are
especially bitter.
The greatest antagonism has been
aroused by the mobilization Of the
reserves. Many of the men in the
reserve forces have large families.
Advices from the front state that
the holy war sentiment is spreading
among the interior tribes, who, so
soon as their crops are gathered, are
expected to flock to the coast and
join the Riffians.
