Atlanta, November 2.—The members <of the legislature and candidates continue to arrive on every train, and everything is in readiness for the opening of the session to morrow. The senate will be called to •order by Hon. W. A. Harris, of Worth, clerk of the last session; and the house bv Hon. Mark A. Hardin, of Fulton, clerk of the last house. The Urst day will be con sumed in the election of officers for tho two houses, and it is not probable that any other business will be undertaken unless they should decide to receive the governor’s message. This ■will probably not be introduced, however, before Thursday. The elections will come on next Monday and in the meantime the •candidates for judges and solicitors must remain on the anxious bench, and con tinue their work among the members. The presence of prohibition causes the Kimball House bar to present a very dif ferent appearance from that of former ■days when the legislators assembled. Kntorprlslug this Men. Atlanta. November 2.—From an invest igation, which has been ordered by the ■city council, it seems that the Atlanta Gas Light Company has been getting in its work for a number of years past at the ex pense of the city.

The petition be ing allowed the main was laid at the city’s ■expense in order to supply the street lamps, and the company at the same time made its connections for private houses. It is claimed that $30,000 has been expend ed by the city in this way and the compa ny has reaped the benefit, A committee from council has been appointed to inves tigate the matter.

PURSUED BY RUM ADVOCATES. A Connecticut I’riilitliUtoiilst Twice Assaulted for Hi* Opinions. AnsoniA, Conn., October 30.—Joseph L. Hakes, who now lies at his home in West Ansonia suffering from a fractured skull and other injuries, the result of a totally unprovoked attack upon him nt his own door, has learned the lesson that it is not always safe to express one’s opinions in this traditionally law-abiding state of Con necticut. Hakes is a prohibitionist, lie doesn’t believe in the liquor traffic, and he has done his best to tight it in Ansonia. His crusade against rum hasn’t been con fined to words, and more than once he has attempted to prevent the granting of licenses to saloon keepers of the town. His course made him enemies, and threats were freely made that he would rue his active work for prohibition. He paid little heed to them and continued to ex press his ideas freely and put them into action whenever he got the chance. Hakes spent an evening in Ansonia Centre last December, and did not start for his home across the Naugatuck river until late. It was a cold, dark night, and he hurried along at a fast walk. He had traveled the road hundreds of times and was utterly unconscious of danger. As he passed a dark corner a man sprang out be hind him and struck him upon the head with a club, felling him to the ground and afterward giving him a terrible beating. Passers-by found Hakes lying in the road and took him tb his home. In the dark ness and the surprise of the attack he had been unable to identify his assailant, but as he had no enemies except the saloonists, his friends laid the assault at their door. Hakes’ injuries were serious, but that didn’t end his foes’ campaign. He received letters‘threatening all kinds of ills upon him and bidding him beware of the pun ishment of which his nocturnal experience had been but a mild sample. The pro hibitionist’s convalescence was slow, and he never fully recovered from the effects of the assault. One night, some months after the first attack, a man cattle to Hakes’ house and demanded admission. Hakes was away, but his wife kept the door closed, and the visitor, after beating in one of the panels with his club, went away, apparently satisfied that he could not get at the inmates. The third attempt, two nights ago, resulted in a fractured skull for the out-spoken prohibitionist, and the arrest of Thomas Feeney, a saloon keeper. Hakes is employed at the Farrel foundry. He is a thoroughly respectable citizen, and his only crime seems to have been daring to express his convictions. It is just such eases as this that have given the Connecti cut piohibitionists such an increase in numbers and earnestness. A Negro Han Kilted b, a White Lad—The Cat- ton llli* Will Probnblr Beaume Work During the Week. Special to Enquirer-Sun. Augusta, November 2.—Walter Myers, a fifteen year old lad, killed Henry Thomp son, colored, at the toll gate to-night at B:30 o’clock. A crowd of small boys were playing in the public road, and one of the members threw a clod of dirt, striking the negro. The negro retaliated with a brick back, which struck little Myers in the face. With a pen-knife the child rushed on his assailant, and striking him in the breast penetrated the lungs, producing almost in stant death. The negro was of age and large in statue. Myers is in jail. Committeeman Wright will formally meet the mill presidents to-morrow morn ing at the Georgia Railroad bank and en deavor to etfect a settlement of the labor troubles in Augusta.

San Francisco, November 2.—A heavy vote is being polled. The American ticket is cutting a considerable figure in the vote in this city. It was supposed at. first that tho American vote would only draw from tile republican party, bin it s now known that it is drawing from both sides. There are several state tickets in the field, which cause heavy scratching. The vote in he city and throughout the state, will be very close. San Francisco, November 2.—Returns from all the counties in the state outside, of San Francisco county give the republi cans a majority, and unless the majority for Bartell (dome lor governor proves to be much lnrger in San Francisco than is expected, Swift (rep.) will lie elected. The American vote, which started out strong, rapidly fell away, and ill the interior it fell behind the O’Donnell (ind.) vote. MINNESOTA. St. Paul, November 2.—Not for many years has there been so much excitement nt all election, and this is augmented by the attack made on the republica pro cession at Minneapolis last night, during which about sixty persons were injured, ex-Governor Pillsbury among the number. One or two were severely hurt. The state central committee claim that the state ' ill give 15,000 republican majority.

St. Paul, Minn., November 2.—At 8:30 & m. the returns from 22 townships give oGill, republican, for governor 1489, and Ames, democrat, for governor 1441. In the presidential election the same town ships gave Blaine 1832 and Cleveland 1231. The same ratio of loss carried through the 800 townships of the state would reduce McGill’s majority to 3000: bu the town ships reported are small railway points, where Ames’ influence would naturally be strongest. There are no returns from any Minnesota cities yet. NEBRASKA. Omaha, Nebraska, November 2.—Not over 9000 votes were polled here. The re publican state ticket has been elected by over 25,000 majority. James Laird, the present member of congress from the second district, and Gen. F. Dorsey, con gressman from the third district, both re publicans, have been re-elected.

Milwaukee, November 2.-The labor party is cutting a big figure, and in some of the democratic strongholds the vote of the democrats has been divided by the new party. Defection from the old parties to the labor party is strongest in polish seotmns, which means a democratic loss. Milwaukee, Wis., November2.—Thirty nine towns and cities show a net republi can gain of 391. Indications are that Small, laboi candidate for congress, is elected in the fourth district. Milwaukee, November 2.—At midnight it is conceded that the entire state republi can ticket has been elected by a handsome majority, with Governor Rusk leading. The plurality will probably exceed 20,000. The legislature is republican, with a re duced majority on a joint ballot.

He was summering at a foreign watering place, and was constantly beseiged by the Countess Somebody to perform some of his tricks. He pleaded that he was on his vacation, and that he desired to rest. Finally she corner ‘d him in a pavilon overlooking the sea, and in the presence of a large company entreated him to show them what he could do. “You have a beautiful necklace,” he said at last; “please let ine have it.” The countess complied, and Hermann immediately threw the costly chain of gems into the ocogia. ‘.‘Iloiv dare you ilo. that 1” de manded the count, angrily. Without replying Hermann reached forth and bnugiit forth a large bouquet from the gentleman’s coat. Handing it to the countess, he bade her open it. “She did so,” says Hermann, laughingly telling tho story, “and right in the bouquet she found her necklace.

In 1864 I contracted blood poison. Since that time I have suffered tortures from an affection of the skin, rheumatism and ulcerating sores. During those long years of disease I underwent treatment at the hands of leading physicians in Norwich, Hartford, Providence, Boston and Chica go. Failing to get relief at one place, I would go to another, but met with the same treatment and effect everywhere. The quantities of mercury and potash I have taken have not only done me no good, but I believe it Ipis done me much harm. I hitve taken S. S.
