We truet The Conetltutlon will call a halt upon Ita peailmlstlc vein In depreciating Atlanta too much on nc count of a riot with which the better claaa of ita people bad nothing to do. The Constitution has had too much to say about the falling off In our bank clearing statements during the last week, and Is mistaken In crediting the Incident to the events of the preceding Saturday. All of this may be interesting enough, but It does not follow that The Constitution should rub It in too much or attribute It too directly to the depreciation of At lanta's business or to the Influence of the riot. The Constitution might at least remember two or three things In connection with tjie dellclt In the bank clearance* of last week. In the tlrst place we had a week of almost Incessant ratn. The conditions of the weather were almost without precedent nt this time of year. Many business enterprises such us that of Mr. Gholstln'a factory were halted with workmen waiting at hand on account of the rain. Pedestriana were kept from the stricts and the atorea were not nearly no well patronised. And If The Constitution will think a moment It will realtxe that the cotton receipts for this year by reason of the late season, are fully two weeks behind those of the same week last year, which by the record wbs a bright, sunshiny and inspiring week for trade. Joining all of these things to this unwelcome weath er, we enn And something at least to modify the doleful tale of Atlanta's reduced hank clearances during tho past week. And wo bid The Constitution be of good cheer In the assurance that Atlanta Is neither dead nor dying, and that Its bank clearancca and receipts of all kinds will speedily resume their normal tone. Georgia’s Building at Jamestown. At the recent meeting of the Georgia Commission to the Jamestown Exposition It wbs unanimously agreed to have n Georgia building, and Colonel Mitchell, the president of the commission, advised that he had selected a plot of ground fronting the water contiguous to the state buildings of Virginia, Mnryland and Ohio. Under the act of the Georgia legislature appropriat ing $30,000, no part of this fund can be used In the erec tion of a building. The amount necessary must he railed from other sources. The plan of President Mitch ell la, aa our local Interview shows, to have the principal cities of Georgia contribute—and n room In the building designated for each city so contributing, nil decorations and furnishings being tho product of the city occupying the room, showing In the room the diversified manufac tures, fine arts, educational nnd historical of the city. This plan appeals to The Georgian and should and will, we believe, touch a responsive chord In the munici pal pride of our Georgia cities. Oeorgta must be splen didly represented at Jamestown, showing to the millions that will be present that she In the Empire State of the South, and within her state building will cluster her cities—and aa the visitor to the Georgia building goes through the various rooms Georgians can point with pride to the prosperity nnd enterprise of her municipali ties. Through the courtesy of the architect, Mr. Msrye, a former Virginian, who built our beautiful Terminal sta tion, his services have been given the commission free. This will surely set an example to Georgia cities, and The Georgian believes that a quick, liberal response will be given by each Georgia city when the case Is presented to them. An Apology to Our Correspondents. Our correspondents must bear with us If we are a little slow In handling the various communications with which they have favored this pnper during the last fort night. The rush to the columns of The Georgian on the part of the people has been practically unprecedented. We have a stack of manuscripts upon our desk more than a foot high, and more than enough to fill every column of every page of every newspaper In Atlanta. We appreciate this evidence of partiality on the part of the people who think and read in Georgia. We appre ciate that preference for the clean, fair columns of The Georgian In which to exploit their views, and we trnst In time we shall be able tc use them all, or at least all of those that are not now rendered Ineligible by the passage of events under discussion. It has been simply Impossible to use them before. The Georgian every day In the press of Its local and vital matters, has been compelled to leave out telegrams for which we pay in good hard cash, and we hare every day within the last fortnight left out of each paper much reading matter. We are glad to hear from our friends tt any time and we enter only the admonitory caution '-O make every communication as brief as |K>sslble in arder to insure both Its appearance and its reading by the people. An Armory Auditorium. There never was a time when the necessity for an armory and an auditorium was more apparent In Atlan ta than just now. In the first place we owe It to our splendid military organizations that they should have a place to be housed from the weather and the mob when retting In time of danger and riot. Atlanta Is growing -o be a large city now and every large city has found the necessity for an armary for Its soldiery. New York has half a dozen, other cities have more than cne, ant. Atlanta needs one Just now. An establishment of this kind consistently under guard would be an effective and ready rendervous for our military men In time of emergencies, and with the guns and the men in perfect equipment at all times It would be a source not less of pleasure than of absolute comfort and helpfulness to the vital Interests of the city. The proposition to build this establishment large enough to include In it a great central hall for conven tions, state and national, and a city hall of large propor tions will appeal to the common sense and Judgment of the city. The only question Is the money. The proposition to Induce many of the subscribers to the exposition fund to divert their subscriptions to this new and admirable enterprise, Is a good one. We take It for granted, however, that not all of those who en tered Into the exposition will he willing to go the full atr.runt of their subscriptions to this cause, but even if they give half or oiy-thlrd of their subscriptions It would make a nucleus around which the public spirit of Atlanta could readily revolve to raise tho remainder. Our volunteer soldiery has won the right to such an institution. Atlanta needs the auditorium and the city hall which Is a part of It. and having nothing else of transcendent Importance In the way of public enter prises at this time, why should we not Join forces togeth er and build the armory and auditorium? OUR PLA TFORM—The Georgian stands for Atlanta's Owning its own gas and elec tric light plants, as it now owns its Water works. Other cities do this and get gas as low as 60 cents, with a profit to the city. This should be done at once. The Georgian believes that if street rail ways can be operated successfully by European cilies, as they are, there Is no good reason why they can not be so operated here. But We do not believe this can be done now, and it may be some years be fore We are ready for so big an undertaking. Still Atlanta should set its face in that direction NOW GOMPEflS FLAYS INGFi Chicago, Oct. 1.—Samuel Gompera conducted his “Sunday achool” for teamsters yesterday at Appolo hotel, and In the first lesson laid down the commandment, "Thou shalt not slug.'* Nearly 500 drivers gathered to hear the labor leader. A few of them early Jn the meeting showed a disposition to be unruly, but peace was established when Gompera rebuklngly aald: "Don’t fight with your fists or with pistols; fight with your brains and go as far as you like In that regard." The drivers were told plainly to cease bickerings and get Into line for a solid front In the coming election. TWO BATTALIONS READY TO LEAVE FT. MPHERSON TO JOIN TROOPS FOR CUBA The parade ground at Fort McPher-. son had an unusually lively appearance I Monday morning. Not that any war or | preparation for war was In evidence. It was the same old routine, but officers and men moved about with more ani mation than on ordinary days. Guard mount was carried through with a snap that Indicated interest, the band played stirring marches and quicksteps that set the heart leaping. The atmosphere as one of expectancy. • For the Seventeenth is expecting or ders to inarch. Any minute may bring the telegram from Washington order- An Early Mercenary—A Sermon. And Herod was highly displeased with them of Tyre and Sidon; but they came with one ac cord to him, and, having made Blastus, the king's chamberlain, their friend, desired peace; because their country was nourished by the king's country.—Acts xll. Few people have an aptitude for reading Scripture with a vivid conception of the times and surroundings, Properly to grasp the significance of the bare narrative of holy writ. It Is needful to clothe the bare skeleton of the story with the flesh and blood of reality. If one would comprehend all that Is set down In -the text It Is necessary to grasp the historical setting and seo clearly the character and motives of the times Herod was a creature of Rome. His family boasted of descent from the Maccabees, though In truth they were bastard and Incestuous race In whose veins were small trace of Jewish blood, far less of the royal and pa triotic strain of tho noble family in whose right they claimed to rule. ■ The Jews of that day were sunk under a heavy load of privilege. Every avenue to wealth and fame was closed to merit. The favored few had usurped all oppor tunity. The people were In a worse condition than ever before In their history. The dry rot had settled llW-a pall on the Jewish state. Under these conditions It Is not curious that a foreign and militant power had been able easily to dominate the policies of Jerusalem and seat by force upon the throne of David a set of viceregal pretenders nnd depu ties. Nor Is it surprising that the rulers were corrupt, selfish, unmindful of the welfare of the state, reveling In beastly excesses nnd open only to the solicitations and cajollerles 6f Intrigue. Tyre and Sidon were portB on tho Mediterranean, de pending for their opulence upon the commerce of the East, tho rich traffic of Asia, costly Bluffs and luxurious viands that from the fnr valleys of the Tigris and the Euphrates sought an outlet to the world through the highways of tho great deep. In their rivalry with other ports the merchants of Tyre and Sidon found It Imperative to maintain friendly relations with Herod’s government. Not only the com merce of his own vicoroyalty was to be played for, but his land lay In such position that he could at any time cut off tho passage of traffic either by open force or the Imposition of prohibitive tariffs. Therefore, It was that “they of Tyre and Sidon were nourished by the king's country;” nnd therefore also was It that when he “was displeased with them," these canny merchants of the sea felt the Imperative need for peace. With a more honest or patriotic ruler, open negotia tions would have resulted and a treaty been made, out of which good would have come to all the people of Herod's domain and corresponding benefit to the commercial porta. Dealing with such n man ns Herod, they of Tyro and Sidon knew that considerations of pa triotism or of public good would weigh as nothing, and therefore they “made Blastus, the king's chamberlain, their friend and desired peace." What a picture of the times. To the thoughtful Im- nglnntlon. what a suggestion of graft and intrigue Is hero. Blastus, a high official, with the ear of a corrupt monarch open to his blnndlshmentg. It Is so easy to All out the rest. But what of the people? How and where were their interests considered? What must have been, what does history tell of their fate? And now having dwelt upon the moral and political aspects of this suggestive text, let us take up just one of the collateral lessons that It teaches and mRke a pres ent day application. As Tyre nnd Sidon rould be commercially destroyed or their growth nnd welfare retarded by the Imposition of unjust tariffs on the imports and exports of the East passing through Herod's territory, and all eastern com merce forced to seek the West by other ports, so today any other port in all the iorld Is dependent for Its power and wealth on the free passage of traffic through its "hinterland.” Take Brunswick and Savannah for example. The government and people of Georgia desire to see the com merce between the United States, on the one hand, and South America and the Indies on the other, enriching and upbuilding these, her cherished cities, so favored by God nnd nature that the average haul through them Is shorter thousand miles than through New Orleans or the Northern ports. If the people of Georgia had their way, these things would be and our ports would grow rich. But we have put Into the hand* of certain railroad kings a vice- royal power to fix the tariffs for the transit of commerce between America and the Indies, and somehow these ieeroys must be "displeased with them of Brunswick and Savannah," for they force the Indian commerce through distant ports to our Impoverishment. Brunswick and Savannah have no access to these viceregal ears. Other ports far to the North profit when the viceroys of Georgia put prohibitive tariffs on the com merce of our ports, and therefore they have already made Blastus tlielr frleml. The people of Georgia and her parte have no longer hope In relief by intrigue. They must use force. We may call it competitlcn. hour day strike was held In the after- 1 noon at the Second regiment armory. ’ US, GOULD'S SISTER A The largest meeting of prtnters held S'"”.tVl®«'“-."L\ h if. t'e: .ng ^Vq^d's^d'KloS"; entrain for Newport News preparatory for embarkation for Cuba and active service. No order* have been received Monday nt noon, but this did not pre vent every preparation. The Seven teenth It ready to leave Its post In an hour. "I have received no orders as yet,” talc! Colonel Van Orsdale Monday morning. The colonel was up early and at his desk In regimental head quarters, ordering officers and men! about as certain matters of preparation | became necessary. An almost steady stream of men came In at his door to salute, receive instructions and return to carry them out. The colonel talked between times, though, like most army officers, he said little. Regiment is Ready. "The regiment Is ready to go at any time now. Yes, I think all of us are looking forward to It with pleasure. Two battalions, the First and Second, will go, I understand. That Includes Companies A, B, C, D, E, F, G and H, with 65 men to the company. "Arrangements for transportation are being made through the quartermastef at the offices of the department of the gulf. We are. not concerned with that here. It will require seven or eight day coaches for the men If we use day coaches. If they have tourist sleepers it will require more. Two or more Pullmans will be required for the of ficers. Then a number of flat cars and stock cars for the wagons and stock will be needed. I expect that three sections of the train will be required." It has not been decided by which railroad the regiment will travel to Norfolk and Newport News. Bids will be received nt the offices of the depart ment of the gulf at 4 o'clock Monday afternoon nnd the Southern, Seaboard. Atlantic (Toast Line and Georgia rail road will submit bids for furnishing the trains. The hour set for receiving the bids Indicates that no movement Is ex- San Francisco, Oct. 1.—"I am hap py, very happy," said Ella May Clem mons-Sun Yue, sister of Mrs. Howard Gould, today as she displayed a jade ring, her wedding ring. She had only recently been married to Sun Yue, a Chinaman, who was working as a la borer at $2 a day In the ruins of San Francisco. Mrs. Sun Yue once ruled as the wife of Charles Overijcker, a rich merchant Then she enjoyed the same social standing as Mrs. Howard GouJd enjoys In New York, but the couple were di vorced and she resumed her maiden name. REV, C,P, BRIDEWELL LEAVES PASTORATE It was announced Sunday morning at the First Presbyterian church that the Rev. C. P. Bridewell, D. D., pastor for the last eight years, had resigned owing to a great sorrow In his family. Dr. Bridewell left Atlanta Saturday for the home of his father In Arkansas and may never enter the pulpl It Is said. The session of the First Pres church will Wednesday night the resignation. The reason for Dr. Bridewell’s resig nation has not been announced public- physicians pronounced It a cancer. GENERAL T, M, HARRIS Silenced Last Battery Placed by Lee. i GOSSIP I COL. J. T. VAN ORSDALE, Who will command tho two bat talions of the Seventeenth Reg iment in Cuban Service. pected before Tuesday, at the earliest. One Battalion Left. The two battalions will be command ed by Colonel J. T. Van, Orsdale and Majors Money and Chynotveth. Major Frank B. McCoy will be loft nt the fort In command of the Third battalion and will be ranking officer at the post dur ing the nbsence of Colonel Van Orsdale. The machine gun detachment under Lieutenant Murphy will also go v the two battalions. The regimental band, the hospital corps and tho regi mental staff officers will accompany the expedition. The regiment will wear the regula tion khaki uniform nnd overcoats will not be taken. The latter order Indi cates that no long occupation of Cuba Is expected. Orders have been given, however, for overcoats to be boxed and shipped to Newport News, subject to order, if needed later. The orders call for head nets and mosquito bars, and It Is evident that every precaution against yellow fever will be taken. Parkersburg, W. Va„ Oct. 1.—Gen eral Thomas Matey Harris, 93 yean brigadier general In the Unlor army during the civil war and brevet front of General Lee’s advance nnd on him it devolved to sllenc last battery that General Lee placed In position. After the assassination of Pres Lincoln, General Harris was order Washington and detailed as a me of the military commission that tried the conspirators under arrest. LEADING NEGRO GIVES TO FONO Colonel Harry L. Schleslnger has re ceived the following letter from Dr. H. R. Butler, of 104 Auburn avenue: Mr. H. L.

Eatonton, Ga., Oct. 1.—Mrs. Mary ? SEN. CARS WEI BY AN ARA WHOM 1 • Special to The Georgian. Gordon, Ga., Oct. 1$—Sunday morn ing about 9 o’clock, John Carswell, a negro, was cursing on the street near Senator Carswell’s home. Mr. Cars well went on the street near the negro and asked him to stop cursing. The negro becoming more enraged, knock ed Mr. Carswell down and beat him terribly. ' BEATEN MED NEGRO HE REPROVED Mr. Carswell was unarmed. The negro escaped. He Is armed with a shot gun, pistol, a Winchester rifle and a supply of ammunition and defies the rest. The sheriff at. Irwlnton telephoned Gordon for men and rifles nnd they are in pudsuit of the negro. The ipeople of the community are very much wrought up over dhe affair nnd If the negro is caught a lynching is feared. DOW IE BEGS FOR MONEY TO WIN BA CK HIS HEALTH Chicago, Oct. 1.—John Alexander Dowle made his last pathetic appeal for money to his former followers yes terday. Haggard and weak, the old man leaned upon the arm of his wheel chair while he pleaded for funds to carry him comfortably to OYotlan, Mexico, where he hopes to regain his lost health. The spectacle of the sick man—prob ably dying—whose eloquence in the past had brought the dollars from the pockets of the faithful, begging for money to pay his personal expenses, brought pity to those who no longer believed in his teachings. Among the straggling group of curious who had gathered about Shiloh house to hear his address were those who long ago had left the flock, but responded to his call once more. "I just want to borrow the money," he said, as the tears poured down his cheeks. "I am coming back hero well and hearty once more, and I will repay everything. But I must get to Mexico. I must go in a private car, and that costs money. Unless you help me you will regret It." And the old man leaned forward In his chair and closed hIs eyes from sheer exhaustion. Last evening considerable money was needed to pay the expenses of the car. CHEESE EATING CONIES7 ENDS LIFE OF CHAMPION 1 Llbertyviile, III., Oct. 1.—Frank Miller, aged 21, proved that he could eat more cheese than any other cheese lover in Johnsburg, and then he died. Fred Justen proved that he could eat almost as much of the litnburger va riety as Miller. He probably will die. Jake Brayfleld made a poor showing as a cheese consumer, and he is only deiperately sick. l Such Is the result of a contest that ended many nights of argument in Johnsburg. Miller’s capacity for cheese l was n household proverb in the vil lage, and Justen was envious. Bray- I field also thought be might be in It If there was any way of settling the dispute. Next day ail three were in i the hands of physicians. Miller’s case was the worst. It looked like appen- 1 dlcitis to the doctors, and they oper ated upon him for it. I THOUSANDS SEE RESCUE OF GIRL AND FIVE BOYS I Chicago, Oct. 1.—A young woman and five youths, who had ventured out In a fierce gale, were saved from Lake Michigan, off Lincoln park, yesterday, where their laun h, the Surf, with dis abled machinery and half filled with water, was In great peril. The frail craft was In imminent danger of being dashed to pieces against the concrete and stone wall. Captain Charles Garland, of the United States life saving station. # reached the imperilled launch with the lifeboat Dauntless not a moment too tc soon. The rescue was witnessed by j- thousands of ipeople who lined Hr* tt shore. Adams, of Amerlcus, Ga., died here yesterday morning at 9 o’clock at the residence of Dr. D. L. Thomas, her son-in-law. Her death was caused from heart failure and wus very sudden. She was 75 years of age and the wid ow of the late Hon. A. A. Adams, of Amerlcus, and was here on a visit. She leaves five daughters and one son, Mrs, s T. H. McGlllfs, of Amerlcus; Mrs. J. \v Weston, of 8wain*ty>ro; Mis. T. t\ <’ Jeffords, of Sylvester; Mrs. W. F. y Gard. of Dallas, Tex.; Mrs. I).

New York, Oct. 1.-*—News comes from Chicago that Louis A., Gourdaln, the eccentric financier who was so determ ined to serve a prisog sentence at Joliet that he announced he would build himself a dungeon ceil just outside of the state Institution and Insisted upon living there In solitary confinement, is transacting business again along new' lines through a bank he has estab lished there. , Goimiain apparently needs money. His private jail has not been built and he is confined in his apartments at tho Auditorium annex by sickness. Fred erick Lindquist, who drew plans for the miniature penitentiary, has sued him for $3,000 damages because Gourd- ain refused to accept the plans. Now Gourdaln is waiting for investors in his new cashier’s checks saving sys tem. In the absence of Gourdaln and Ills assistant cashier, the dispatch says, B. H. Mullen, the clerk, could vouch safe no information as to the merits of the new- system. It Is understood, however, that the bank Issues what is termed "cashier's checks." drawing 4 per cent interest, (’ashler Mullen is sending out C. O. D. a check for $1 and a leather pocketbook, his descrip tion of the latter being "to carry your money and cashier’s check." The checks are offered in any amount, ranging from $10 to $10,000 if one wants to pay for them. The "little black man," which fig ured so prominently In the trial for murder of George Woods, who asserted he had been driven to his crime by mch an evil genius, has been revived. Araift TashJJan, the fratricide, has ’ brought the black spook to life. In a | fresh confession, Aram said: "The spirit, the little black, awful ’ pirit, was at me all the time. Tho : little spirit told me to kill my brother. ■ "I fought the spirit off fqfr two J months, but It gave mo no rest. Day and night that little black thing whis pered, ‘Kill, kill, kill your brother. He is the meanest man that lives.”* Jn the freshman class of Columbia University are two blind young men who intend to take the full course. Neither has enough money to pay Ills expenses and so both will have to work their way through college. One of tho men, 13. Bernstein, is from Albany, where he won a scholarship. ’J.’ H. Muller, the second blind man, Is .mak ing his way by tutoring. Has John D. Rockefeller made anoth er of his remarkable disappearances? The question Is agitating his frientfsdn this city since a dispatch was received from Cleveland to the effect that Mr. Rockefeller had not attended church in three weeks. The Cleveland dispatch says: "One rumor places Mr. Rockefeller In Chicago, visiting friends. Another says Standard oil business required his presence In New York. Still another places Mr. Rockefeller on the farm of a friend lie has known 50 years. Mrs. Rockefeller is still at Forest If III.” There are no process servers to dog the footsteps of Mr. Rockefeller and there would seem to be no extraordina ry reason why the Standard Oil man should "disappear.” Mrs. William Astor has been brought back to her home on Fifth avenue.
