when both empires reached the hotel

"Why should we make the first
visit?" asked Togo.
"We shall not call on the Japanese,"

BLOCKING STREET
Temple Baptist Asserts
That A., B. & A. Will
Ruin Its Property.
ASSEMBLY ADOPTS
A bill of Injunction seeking to pro
vent tho Oat. City Terminal Company
from blocking Mangum street, or In
any way Interfertrtg with the present
condition of the thoroughfare from
Foundry atreet to Hunter, waa filed In
superior court Tueaday by the Temple
Baptist church.
After setting forth the fact thet It
owns a tot and a church building at the
comer of Mnngum and Hunter streets,
the plaintiff alleges that the Gate City
Terminal Company has secured from
the city a permit to change Mangum
street nnd block It at the point specified
on condition that It build a new Man-
gum street, parallel to the old, which
will be fifty feet wide. The petitioner
charges further that the company Is
preparing to build railroads In the vi
cinity of the church property and that
the constant presence of switching
trains and smoking engines will practi
cally render It Impossible to hold serv
ice. In the building. It I. averred that
the smoke and ashes and (lying cinders
will prove so obnoxious that members
of the church will have to abandon
their attendance upon services held
there.
The church does not ask that the
company be restrained from laying Its
tracks and operating its trains, but
does ask that It be restrained from
blocking up Mangum street and leaving
It In an Impassable condition.
A temporary Injunction was granted
by Judge Pendleton and the case Is set
for a hearing on May 35. .
Smith, Berner. Smith & Hastings are
attorneys for the plaintiff.

SATURDAY'S BATTLE
TO BE_A_BIG ONI
Troops From All Georgia
Expected to Take Part
in Fight.
If the present plans of’ the commit-
tee which has the matter in charge are
caurled Into effect the sham battle at
Piedmont park nqxt Saturday after
noon will be one of the best military
displays ever witnessed In Atlanta, and
all past affairs of tho kind-will fade
away Into hasy Insignificance.
The reception which Is being planned
for tbe visiting troops on that day l»
being carried forward on a very large
scale. It Is expected that practically
every outside company will nccept the
Invitation of the Gordon Monument
Commission, supplemented by the Invl
tmlon of the officers of the Fifth regl
ment In Atlanta, to be present on that
day, and the reception with which they
will meet will far excel anything which

A committee from the Fifth regl
ment will meet every Incoming com
pany, and they will be escorted to the
armory of the local troops. The troops
will be cared for during the day and at
2 o'clock In the afternoon a barbecue
will be served In their honor at Pied
mont park. Cara will be In watting at
the capital, and after the unveiling of
the Gordon monument the troops will
be transported to the barbecue grounds.
They will return to the city on cars
after the battle and will thus escape
any unnecessary fatigue.
The sham battle Itself will be a mam
moth affair. Heretofore nothing blit
Infantry, with one dr two cannon on the
side, have participated. On this occa
slon there will be gpur guns In tho ar
tlilery corps, at least too mounted cav
rymen. the mechlne gun and the Gov
ernor’s Light Artillery.
In addition to these, the cadets of

don Institute, at Bsrnesvllle, will take
part In the fight. Captsln Orville H.

Lieutenant Graham L. Johnson, U. S.
A., a well-known Atlanta boy, son of
Mr. and Mrs. R. A. Johnson, Is now
stationed at Morro barracks, Santiago,
Cuba, and letters from him to his pa
rents tell of the terrible condition of
affairs resulting from the scarcity of
water In that part of tha Island and
wliut privations the United State* sol
dlers have to endure.
All water, he writes, was cut off from
the officers' quarters and barracks, and
the small quantity of water allowed
each man Is delivered In a tin csn. The
soldiers haven't water to wash their
faces and hands, and bathing and
laundering Is Impossible except In sea
water.
Added to these hardships. Is the dan
ger to health arising from the fact that
the city of Santiago hss been without
water to flush Its sewers for the past
four weeks.
So scarce Is water that It has come
to bo sold by the drink. The horrors of
u water famine In a hot country are
not easily to be described, but Lieuten
ant Johnson writes that unless rain
comes soon great sickness and suffering
are feared.
