ATLANTA'S llltKATXKSS (JONH. It la • (Irttl Hit; It lUpprntd—It la » tlrrat l’ltf Hon It Happened. Atlanta hoa been n great city. Thia wood* rlnnned metropolis hoa grown and bulged until i. roaeinblea a bale of cotton with the middle hoop broken; and It has long assumed the metropoli tan air of professing surprise at nothing. Atlanta in the past has been noted for getting up sensa tions and gazing at them and enjoying them and 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.; been talk of moving the Atlantic ocean to At lunta in order to make it a seaport, but H. I Kimball Is busy with some other enterprise, and I ,y from continued rains during June, pro tho project has been abandoned for the present. I venting H proper cultivation of crops, in It cannot be denied thnt the salt which the ocean j eluding corn. Many sections could not would bring with it, would help Atlanta. make ^leir usual supply of corn.

The report is up to the first tige; and now it is the laughing stock ol all the j instant, and since then the rains have eon- hamlets and villuges that were wont to gape i.t j tinued daily. 1 Special to the Enquirer-Sun.

' 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. INDKIi THE HAMM KB. lhu) Estate Sold at Public Outcry Yesterday— Good Prices Realized.

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.” covered yet from a painful boil on the in step of his foot. Mr. R. \V. Slaughter is in u feeble state of health.

We heard an old cit izen say a few days ago that it could rain with less provocation now than he ever saw. The mad cow that created such con sternation on our streets a few days ago has died. Wo are of the opinion that ivy did the work. We note the arrival in our little city of Mr. S. Beall and wife. They are the guests of Mr. Cameron. The West Georgia A. and M. College has just sent out new catalogues. They were printed by the Journal job worker, anil show taste in the writer and excellency in the printer. Mr. V. A. Ruthertord, who has been spending some time in Hamilton assisting Prof. Dozier in the exercises of the col lege, left for home in Florida this morning. We will sadly miss the professor, for it was quite pleasant to hear him on his guitar in the quiet of night,. To-morrow, Harris county wrestles again with the fence question.
