Atlanta, August 3.—To-day eighteen stone cutters engaged on tile new capitol building demanded the discharge of Boss R. W. Douglass on the ground that they could not please him, ana he was unjust and unreasonable in his orders. Contractors Myers and Horn de clined to accede to their demands and they struck. These men belong to the Stone Cutters’ Association and no other members of it can take their places. The contractors must send elsewhere to pro cure men before the work can .proceed.

The giant was first seen by one of | our most trusted citizens about 10 o'clock tins forenoon. He immediately circulated the report and a formidable force of fellow- townsmen accompanied him to the spot where he saw it disappear.

Futures closed quiet. market quiet; Aberdeen, Miss., August 2.—A spirited prohibition campaign, under the provis ions of the local option law adopted by the last legislature is being waged in Missis sippi. About thirty counties will pass upon the question this summer. Two years ago the prohibitionists were highly successful, aud many Mississippi counties in local parlance “went dry.” This year the whisky men have made a stronger right and have wrested two or three counties from the prohibitionists. Eight or ten counties have already voted upon the question. Lauderdale, Mont gomery, Clark, Greene and Copiah have voted the “dry” ticket, while Adams, Jssaquiua, Warren, JJackson, and others have been carried by the “wets.” Sixteen more counties will vote for or against the sale of whisky early in August. Thus far politics have been carefully ex hausted, but the prohibitionists now show a disposition in some sections to make a political question of it. Heretofore the opponents of the sale of whisky have re ceived strong support from the negroes, who were influenced to vote against license by negro pastors who have taken an active interest in the question. Tiiis year the ne groes have shown a disposition to support the “wets.” As a result the contest has developed a new phase. One of the largest counties in the state is Lowndes. Here a heated canvass is now in progress, with the chances in favor of the whisky men, who are supported by the mass of the negroes. A few days ago the prohibitionists changed front entirely, and insisted that the question, as it affected the best inter ests of the state, was largely one of party politics. They therefore decided that it should be settled not by popular vote, but by a democrat ic primary, at which only democrats could vote, and the result of which was to be binding upon the county supervisors. If the “wet” ticket carried the primary, license to sell whisky should be issued. If the “dry” ticket was suc- New Yo;ik, sales 200 bale; leans 9 : ,c.

The general sentiment throughout Mis sissippi is that the prohibition question must be divorced from politics, ana the re sult of the extraordinary proposition made b % v the prohibitionists in Lowndes county will be likely to prevent a similar move being made elsewhere. It will also have the effect of throwing the negro vote, which the prohibitionists proposed to dis franchise, more solidly for whisky. THE FIRST RAZOR.

Referring to the tobacco crop in Vir ginia, Colonel Randolph Harrison, com missioner of agriculture lor that state, iu a report issued Thursday, says: -There is no doubt that the outlook tor a good tobacco crop, or, to speak with more precision, tor a crop of good tobacco, is very uu- I promising in Virginia. Plants were not lacking, as a general thing, but there has been so little interval between rains since planting season began that much j of the tobacco was doubtless .planted on ‘too much season’—a great hindrance to its growing off well, as every old planter knows. Then the land has not been in | good condition to work, and the workings that could be given have done very little good, because another rain would come directly afterwards and set all the gross that was cut up, at the same time packing the ground so that plants could not thm e.

The earliest reference to shaving is found in Genesis xii, 14, where we read that Jo seph, on being summoned before the king, shaved himself. There are several direc tions as to shaving in Leviticus, and the ^ „ practice is alluded to in many other parts el ., s p, e ii e f,bused upon wlnit lie ha of scripture. Egpyt is the only country j u>al . ( mentioned in the Bible where shaving was practiced. In nil °tnpr countries such an act would have been ignominious. Herodotus men tions that the Egyptians allowed their beards to grow when in mourning, “o par ticular were they as to shaving at other times that to have neglected it was a sub ject of reproach ana ridicule, and when ever they intended to convey the -dea ot a man of low condition and slovenly habits, | the artists represented him Unlike the Romans of a later tians did not confine the i jngto free citizens, butob..
