Atlanta hoa been n great city. Thia wood*

in the past has been noted for getting up sensa

retaining her equilibrium. With her the mos,
liarrowing and nerve-tensing event was taken as
n matter of course, and she wus wont to explain
the wonder to gaping provincials by saying, "In
London and New York and Atlanta everythin,;
happens sooner or later.” In fact, there hr.;

her glory. Atlanta has been duped and done lip
in a manner that would disgrace a crossroads.
Yes, the great metropolis that was, has been
hoodwinked and swindled, and turned inside
out generally. But that, isn’t hall. How was the
Gate City brought down In the dust? By a
storm? No. By an earthquake? No. By an
army with banners? No! Atlanta was wound up
and rundown and mude miserable by three shady-
charactered members of an alleged female base
hail nine. Ministers of grace, defend her. But
here is the story:
For days Atlanta has chuckled and waited for
the female base ball nine to arrive. On Saturday
it came—at least one-third of it came, and that
third was too much by three for Atlanta.
At first rumor said the mayor would forbid the
game, which was to be a match with a local nine,
because it was an immoral exhibition. This
rumor fevered the great city, and the symptoms
most apparent were protests aud indignation.
Atlanta was hungry for some female base ball
fun and was determined to have it. She got
it. The manager of the alleged fe
male nine called on the chief of police to know if
he intended to stop the game. The chief hesi
tated before he answered. Fatal hesitation. For
then the cunning manager suggested that the
-ch ief go with him to the hotel and see one of the
girls arrayed, or rather unarrayed, in her playing
costume, so as to see if it would pass muster. And
the chief, naughty man, came and saw and
yes, saw. The girl was rigged up and brought
out before the chief. Her dress was cut on the
pattern known as low—low and behold! And the
.skirts were not dragging the ground. The chief
said she would pass, and the good news was noised
abroad.
Saturday evening nearly two thousand Atlan
tia ns gathered at Athletic park and paid
their quarters to see the pretty pilgrims-
But when the game was called only three girls
showed up. The crowd became impatient. It
was announced that “owing to a delayed train”
the other six vere not in the city, but the game
would proceed by employing male help. But the
Atlantians had paid to see nine little fairies, not
three, and they became wratliy and resolved them
selves into a committee of the whole—whole
mob. They attacked the ticket office and tried to
batter it down while the dude manager clutched
his shekels and crouched in a coiner and would
have prayed, but he didn’t think there was any
route from Atlanta. The mob raged and surged
and howled for blood. The three fairies pretend
ed to try to play, but nobody wanted to see them.
Besides, they had already played their little game
on Atlanta and were ready to go. The police
finally smuggled the manager into a hack, and
the driver tied with the mob at his heels. The
manager got away with the money and Atlanta
too. Tim Gate City can take a back seat now.
The glory has departed from her. Her plumes
have been plucked. It is a great pity it happened
Jt is a greater pity how it happened.

STATE FINANCES.
State Auditor Burk gives me the follow
ing favorable statement of the state
finances:
The revenue of the last ten years, ending
September 30th last, amounted to over
$1,000,000. of wnich barely #250/
remained uncollected, against about
thirty thousand uncollected former
ly. The finances of the state is in a splen
did condition and the einprovement steady.
The revenue officers generally are settling
more promptly than heretofore. The aud
itor states that taxation can be materially
reduced without danger to the public credit
if a full assessment is made.

A Crushed Jinirindhd.
New York Correspondence.
Once during the career of young De Nyse
he was made managing editor of the Tele
gram, and he was informed by Mr. Ben
nett that the editorials for the paper would
be furnished from day to day by Mr. Le-
vein, who occupied a position on the Her
ald staff, These editorials used to come in
written in a number of different hands,
and marked “must” by Levein. De Nyse
became dissatisfied with them and imagin
ed that they were hurting the paper very
much. So one day he called on the pro
prietor. Said he:
“Mr. Bennett, you have made me the
managing editor of the Telegram, and I
am trying my best to push the paper to
success; but this man Levein is hampering
me very much.”
“How so?” questioned Mr. Beunett,look
ing up with some surprise.
“Well, I don’t want to interfere with
any man who is earning his bread and
butter, but, at the same time, Levein sends
in n lot of editorials every day that are not
written by himself, ana I suppose he is
f etting his friends to do the work for him.
shouldn’t object to that if the editorials
were good, but they are simply infernally
bad. There is one man in particular who
turns in about the worst rot I ever saw in
a newspaper. I haven’t the faintest notion
who he is, but the stuff he sends through
Levein is laughed at all over the office, and
is so trivial that it just about destroys the
effect of any work I do in the news depart
ment. Here is some of the manuscript.”
Mr. Bennett took up a slip of paper and
looked at it for a moment. Then he said:
“So you don’t think the writer ought to be
allowed to put his stuff in print?”
“ No,” responded De Nyse, “ frankly 1 do
not. It is quite evident that this particu
lar writer is a d—d fool.”
“Quite possible,” said Mr. Bennett, very
quietly. “ I wrote those editorials my
self.”
De Nyse fell back in his chair with a
gasp. His hair fairly stood on end. He
started to make some sort of an explana
tion, but Bennett cut him short.
“ None of that,” exclaimed the proprie
tor of the Herald," none of that. I thought
those editorials were pretty good ; but, as
they do not seem to impress other people
in the same light, 1 shall never Write
another. Good day.”
Mr. De Nyse returned to his post consid
erably saddened, but he never had any
further editorials from Mr. Bennett.
Atlanta’. flavor’s I’roilnmation.
The following is the proclamation that
Mayor llillyer, of Atlanta, issued July 1:
In obedience of popular will, the bar
rooms were all closed last night with the
intention never again to be reopened or
tolerated in our much loved city. It has
been charged that you will not tie able to
| live up to the high standard of morals
which this step implies. Those who think
so do not know you as 1 do, and as you
know one another. In the mightl of your
integrity you have borne with patience the
unfounded comments of the uninformed
or of prejudiced men. It now becomes
you to prove them in the wrong. You
were and are conscious that you acted from
principle, and have done what is right. In
the purpose to stand by the right the great
popular heart of the city does not falter.
The decree has gone forth;
you have closed up the bar- I
rooms in Atlanta, and because you love |
the city and love one Another and love
your children—blessed children—your will -
is that the barrooms remain closed forever,
i You will, in a spirit of forbearance and
moderation, and yet with such firmness as j
becomes you as men, unite to sustain the !
authorities of the city in the enforcement
of the law. A healthy public opinion is I
the safeguard in every community. As
those who have difitred with you set- tin-
good effects, opposition, if there lie any,
will tjiiit t down and disappear. It is the
high destiny of Atlanta to prove to the 1
world that prohibition can lie enforced in
a ia-ge city. Sin- is, indeed, “set upon a
hill. and her light cannot be hid.”
