The beautiful Snow.
, Snow began to lull early Sunday morning and
continued all day and until late at xnglit. At
times it fell in large Hakes, and again it fell in
the hominy form. Late in the afternoon, after
the ground had been covered to a depth of over
two inches, parties could bo seen on every street
engaged in snow balling. Yesterday morning
the sun broke through the clouds, but it was still
cold and crisp, and it \va,s 12 o’clock before the
•now began to melt. All the morniug parties of
boys and girls and young gentlemen and young
ladies were engaged in snowballing, aud every
one who participated enjoyed the fun. There
were a few couples who took to sleigh-riding, but
tbesnow was rather thin for this amusement
In the afternoon the snow melted so rapidly that
by night there was scarcely any on the ground.
Last night it was cold and clear and the ground
was frozen.

OVER FIVE HUNDRED DOLL4US.
And the Good Work Only Scarcely Begun—Now
Let Every One Hally to the Noble Cause.
The executive board of tho Young Men’s Chris
tian Association have hardly begun their work,
and they have already raised over $500.
But the good work will not stop here. They
have Just organized and will continue to solicit
subscriptions from day to day until the associa
tion input upon a footing that will enable it to
be of incalculable good to the city. Our people
should not wait to be called upon by the com
mittee, but do like several did yesterday and
hunt up some member of the board and make
their contribution. The money is not required
now; it can be paid in quarterly installments
during the ensuing year. Let every one in the
city take stock in this important enterprise and
it will do each individual good—good to the
young men and good to the city at large.
Below wo present the names of most of those
who have contributed. Quite a number of oth

THE GREAT BLUE SHOW.
Didlaruu's Mammoth Ten Uuut Circus Has
Reuolied the City.
DeHaven, the great 10 cent showman, reached
the city yesterday and has commenced to spread
his mammoth tents on the vacaut lots north of
tho Columbus and Western railroad, and along
side the street ear line. Easy of access, by
taking the Rose Hill car you can get off at the
main entrance of the show. DeHavon not only
has a first-class circus, with its usual quota of
acrobats and clowns, but has a regular menagerie
and museum of rare and wonderful curiosities.
The price of admittance—only one dime—places
the show within the reach of all. The rich, the
poor, all can go, for a dime will neither make
nor break you, send you to the poor house or set
you up in business.
Remember the show remains for one week
only, and you may uev r again have the oppor
tunity of seeing such an aggregation of pleasing
and wonderful things for a dime.
Dellaven knows his business and advertises
judiciously’ and well, lie sends his advertising
cars ahead and thoroughly bills every town in
which ho shows.
B* sure to go and carry your fbmily or your
sweetheart.

Atlanta and tho Snow.
Atlanta, Beoember 6.—Atlanta has been cov
ered with snow since Friday evening, and this
morning is covered about ten inches deep in its
immaculate mantle. The clouds have clcare
away ami the sun shines out bright and warm
causing a blinding reflection anti vapidly thaw
ing the snow. Mucli damage has resulted to
telegraph and telephone lines. All over the oitv
men ore engaged shoveling snow from the roofs
ot huildiugs; and as the great shovelfuls go
crushing down through the wires, already
sagging with their weight of ice, they snap like
strings. It is Inn for the men on the roofs, who
are making from fifty cents to a dollar an hour,
but is rather solemn for the telephone company.
Several severe accidents have resulted from
tlie weight of snow on the roofs, amt property
owners aro having their houses cleared aa rapid
ly' as hands can be obtained.
Saturday night the roof of W. P. Jones’ liverv
stable fell in upon his vehicles, smashing up
about $6000 worth of carriages and buggies.
Last night Mr. John Ryan was ou lop of a
building ou Whitehall street. superin
tending the removal of the snow,
and stepped upon a skylight which
was hidden by the snow, and wtiich was not
stout enough to bear his weight, and he tell
through fifteen feet in the store, sustaining pain
ful injuries
This morning the shed in front of the freight
department at the union depot fell iu, hurting
several persons.
Sleigh riding, coasting and snow balling are
the order of the day.
The Investigation.
Atlanta, December 6.—The joint legislative
investigating committee again failed to got a
quorum this evening. Col. Hammond, who is
obliged to leave for Washington, obtained per
mission to dictate his argument in the case to
tho committee’s stenographer, which he did.
Briefly outlined it is llrst a review of the legisla
tion touching the new capitol, showing that it
was the intention of the legislature to have Geor
gia material used iu the capitol if it
could be obtained on equal terms.
Then a review of Uen. Phil. Cook's interview
in which lie set out that the capitol commission
desired Georgia material but were constrained
by an inadequate appropriation. Then Gov. Mc
Daniel’s message in which lie said the commis
sion in their contest with Miles and Harnc liuvo
wisely reserved the right to eliungc the building
stone. That upon this foundation Mr. Harrison
had cause to make an elforl to change the ma
terial. That every citizen has right to petition
the legislature and where lie does not
know now himself to employ counsel to
do so for him. That there \vv no ele
ments of lobbying in his effort and
all he did was clearly legitimate. That Bisaner’s
affidavit was a lie out of the whole cloth as
shown by his own and other testimony. That
Eager to-tifled that Mr. Harrison came to him
ill the spring of ’83 to secure Mr. Clement’s co
operation. when he and Mr. llarriun were en-
etnie- at the time, and all of the other testimony
shows that the whole affair occurred in Decem
ber, ’84. All the circuinslauoes make Eager’s
statement too bold for a fool to believe. That
the use of newspaper columns for the
publication of articles to mould pub
lic opinion was clearly legitimate.
That nothing that has been developed Iras in tile
slightest manner implicated Judge Fain or Sen
ator Rankin, or in any way impaired their faith
fulness ami reputation as public officials. That
the invest Ration was due to the fair fame of the
state and the reputations of the gentlemen in
volved, and it was proper that it should have
been had.

must buy something for them, and what must
they get. Right here we are going to give them
“a pointer.” They must first make up their
minds how much they can afford to spend for
Toy s, etc., and then if (hey will go to Adams &
Bowets, at Strupper’s old stand, they can find
anyt hing in the way of presents for the little ones
they may desire. If it is a Doit they can get one
from 1 cent cacti to $10, Doll Carriages from 50
cents to $5, Wagons from 10 cents to $5, Veloci
pedes from $2 to $10, Bicycles from $8 to $18, Tri
cycles fabulously low. They have Games of a 1
kinds, tin and woode n Toys of all discriptions.
Tool Chests, Dolt Furniture, House Swings,etc.,
etc. In fact they have almost every imaginable
toy, ranging in price from 1 cents to $25. Besides
they keep constantly on hand a full line of fine
Confectionery. Candies from 9 cents to $2.50 a
pound. The best Fruits that can he bought. Just
think of it, ’ , boxes Raisins at $1. Fine Malaga
Grapes at 25 cents a pound.
It is useless to nttempt to name everything
thf y keep and give prices, if you want something
good and cheap, Adams A Bowers are the men
to go to. In conclusion we will say that they
sell thebest Stick Candy made at 9 cents a pound
in lots ot' twenty-five pounds or more,
