Address ATLANTA PUBLISHING HOUSE Ate Loyd St., ATLANTA, fIA, THOMSON, GA., FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 15, f893. A Western geologist says tnat Kansas cob raise wheat for another thousand years before exhausting the necessary properties of the soil. The Greek style of building, rodi fied to modern needs, has been mosi successfully used in Paris, where many palaces are seen of this construction A New York music dealer says tnat the composer of “After the Ball” will make §IOO,OOO out of his song. Man, other authors of popular songs havt made nothing because they failed t< take out copyrights. Some timo ago an lowa cyclone fol lowed the route of a railroad for sev eral miles, and now, the Chicago Her ald learns that there is a theorist on deck who proposes to steer thes< storms, by means of mils laid and wires strung for the purpose, into open sections of country where they can spend their force without damage. Prince Henry of Orleans, who is no; of rnneh account in most things, has shown wisdom in advising the scions of French royal houses to assist in the colonial development of France, since they can but add confusion to confu sion if they take part in polities, it was upon his advice that the young Duke of Uzoo went on the Congo ex pedition, which proved fatal to him. If half the stories told of him nri true, Lord Cromer, the British diplo matic agent in Egypt, is an original individual. He divides his leisure time between lawn tennis and Homer in the original Greek. During the recent Egyptian crisis Lord Cromer ordered the Khedive to dismiss his prime min ister within twenty-four hours, ordered troops from Malta and Aden in case of an emergency and then went out ami played tennis until sunset. The paucity of American-born sail ors in the United States Navy has ex cited a great deal of comment, ob serves the Chicago Herald. A record of the seamen serving in the navy since the establishment of this system shows that not more than four per cent, of ; the lads who are graduated from the apprentice training system continue in the service of the United States. The reoords fnthur show that of the 7250 seamen allowed by law in the navy,lesi than one-half of those who enlist at the receiving ships arc native born Ameri cans. The interesting fact is shown in the emigration and immigration returns ol Great Britain and Ireland last year that, while the native population iH leaving in hundred of thousands for this country and the British colonies, there is a considerable influx of immi grants into the United Kingdom, com i ing for permanent settlement. Last | year 210,042 British and Irish left j their home, the greut majority, 160,- ! 339, coming to the United States. In ! the same period 22,137 aliens from the j continent of Europe arrived in the j United Kingdom “for permanent set tlement.” Western railroad officials say that this year’s corn crop will be 300,000,- 900 bushels larger than last year’s; that the oat crop 50,000,000 larger; that the wheat crop will be only 100,000,000 bushels smaller; that the hog crop will be 4,000,000 larger and that all roads will have vastly more to haul than in 1892-92. State Secretary Mohler has issued a special report on the corn prospects of Kansas. He puts the area at 6,29(1,000 acres, only 600,000 under the wonderful area of 1889,when the yield w as 273,000,000, and that the condition this year promises a yield jxceedcd only by 1889. The New York Post remarks tha\ “Few people have any conception of the pressure for pardon which is brought to bear upon every Executive. Governor Stone, of Missouri, has at least 500 applications before him, and declares that it is not an exaggeration to say that one-half of his time is ab sorbed in listening to such applica tions, which are presented by mothers, wives, daughters, lawyers, friends from every part of the State, singly, by twos and threes, and often in larger delegations. Most of these applica tions he has to refuse, only nineteen having been granted during the first six months of his term ; but it is easy to accept his plea that ‘an undue pro portion of my time is consumed with these matters, and the strain upon nervous vitality resulting from the pa thetic incidents connected with them is very exhausting. ’ It is obvious that some change ought to be made, either by the establishment of a Board of Pardons or otherwise ; for it is absurd that half of an Executive’s time and strength should be exhausted in con sidering petitions that he wi}l set aside the findings of the court*."

The national World’s fair commis sion at Chicago, Wednesday, received the report of tho spocial investigating committee exonerating Commissioner Mercer, of Wyoming, from tho charges of dishonorable conduct and finding Commissioner Beesone, of Oklahoma, guilty of dishonorable acts. The report was adopted with only one dissenting voice. A cablo dispatch of Thursday from Berlin states that the Rhine haH been proclaimed officially to bo infected with cholera, and bathing in it is for bidden. All the public baths along its banks have been ordered closed and the authorities of all the towns in tho Rhino valley have been instructed to adopt stringent measures to prevent the use of the river water for domestic purposes. A New York dispatcli of Thursday says: Tho Commercial Cable com pany and the South American Tele graph, 37 and 39 Wall street, posted a notice that tho Brazilian government has suspended all telegraphic com munication to and from Brazil for tho present. This order however will not interfere with telegrams passing through Brazil for points beyond. No explanation for the order is given. A London cable dispatch of Thurs day says: The Manchester and Shef field Railway Company has given no tice that on account of tho scarcity of fuel, caused by the miners’strike, they have suspended the services of fifty five trains. The Midland Railway Company has taken off fourteen trains for the same reason. Each company had already curtailed its train service in consequence of the coal famine. A head-end collision between a milk train on the Chicago, Pittsburg and Fort Wayne railroad and an eastbound passenger train on the Pan Handle or Pittsburg, Cincinnati, Chicago and St. Louis railroad, Thursday, killed twelve persons and injured as many more.

Many Cities lu Georgia Raise Their Quarantine Against Her. A Brunswick, Ga., special says: Aroused by the action of Brunswick’s council Thursday the government of ficials roalized tho mistake they were making and the extreme injustice done to tho city in waiting to consult the Snvannah authorities Friday thoy atoned for their mistake by wiring Sur geon General Wyman to order the quarantine against Brunswick raised as all danger was over. Tho cities and towns of Georgia with tho exception of Savannah promptly raised their quarantine, releasing Brunswick from her barriers and once more giving her people a fighting chance for life and business. Tho majority of the 4,000 people in Brunswick now are laborers and many of their families are receiving help from the relief oommittee. In a few weeks their work will bo resumed and the battle for bread will bo more equal ; ized. Help, however, will bo needed for them for several wooks yet and ! contributions will bo gratefully re ceived. SAVANNAH YIELDS.

WRECKED BY A CYCLONE A Louisiana Town Demolished—Five Persons Lose Their Lives. A severe cyclone struck the pretty little town of Lockport, La.,on Bayou Lafourche, at about 9 o’clock Thurs day morning and left a mass of ruins and desolution. Strong winds had been raging tho whole nightlong, ao ; companied by rain. No serious results were apprehended until the wind shift j ed suddenly to the southwest and blew at'n terrible rate, carrying everything in its path. A number of residences and stores' j wore demolished and many other bill’d i ings were badly damaged. Besides „he | five people killed, a largq/number were I more or less seriously Wgiuided. ■*’On the Southern I/aei.ft 'rr>;lioadbo ■ tween Bayou Stile ami I miles west of Now Orleans; i. .if none \ of telephone poles were blow n down, destroying telegraphic communication I with Texas by that route.

High winds are reported from Baton Rouge and Amite City, La., and Mississippi City, | on the gulf coast. HOME RULE REJECTED. The House of Lords Divided and Voted Adversely to the Hill. A London cable dispatch says: The house of lords divided Friday night at midnight and the result was the rejec tion of the motion by a voto of 419 to j 41. All the bishops went with the [ majority. The announcement of the result was received with laughter and I some cheering. Tho house was then | cleared of spectators and adjourned ! immediately. Outside of the building tho polico had kept a freo circulation during the | tho evening. At midnight a distinct ive unionist demonstration was hold, consisting in tho flourishing of the union jack, tho singing of patriotic j songs and cheering for Lord Salis bury, the duke of Argylo and Joseph Chamberlain. Skyrockets were sent up from the precincts of the house and the answer greeted with ringing cheers. THE BRAZILIAN REVOLT. Secretary Gresham Takes Prompt Ac tion In the Matter. A Washington special says: Secre tary Gresham decided Friday morning not to wait longer for official notiiica ! tion that a revolution had broken out in Brazil and he accordingly sent, a | cablegram to Minister Thompson, who is supposed to have reached Rio de ! Janeiro by this time, instructing him j to concur in a general diplomatic re monstrance against the burdensomo interference with the foreign commerce of Brazil through the suspension of telegraphic communication. This dispatch was sent in accordance with a partial promise made by Secre tary Gresham Thursday to tho New York coffee exchange which intimated that Brazil was discriminating against American trade. THE COTTON MOVEMENT. Secretary Hester’s First Report of the New Commercial Year. According to Secretary Hester’s New Orleans Cotton Exchange report, issued at New Orleans Friday, the new commercial year of 1893-94 opens with a much smaller movement of cotton than has been shown in either last year or year before. The statement covers the past week and the first eight days of tho season, making the amount of tho American cotton crop brought into sight for the week 43,661, against 63,804 in Sep-, ' tember, 1892, and 100,860 the sn.ne time in 1801. For the eight days of j September the movement into sight has been 48,820 against 70,801 and | 111,873, showing a falling off of 81 per i cent from l*pt year, and fiO from the | jm before. AT THE NATIONAL CAPITAL. Affairs of Goyernrat art-Ulte flioHonsc and Senate Discnssel Notes of Interest Concerning the Peo ple and Their General Welfare. When tho senate adjourned Satur day afternoon it was a week nearer the repeal of tho Sherman law. But nothing happened during the week to indicate when a voto will bo taken. Tho chief talk outside of the speeches on tho floor has been with reference to tho compromise. Senator Peffer has presented a peti tion in the senate from citizens of Kansas in the form of a resolution pro viding for tho issue of treasury notes to be loaned the different states ac cording to demand at interest, not ex ceeding one per cent to be distributed among the people of the states and to be legal tender for all public and pri vate debts. Innumerable dispatches received at Washington indioate that a general re sumption of business in the manufact uring plants in the north and west has begun or is in preparation. This is particularly marked in the cotton fac tory section of Now England and iron working plants ill Pennsylvania and Ohio, also in tho miscellaneous indus tries of Philadelphia and New York. By direetion of tho secretary of war, three hundred hospital tents have been sent, from quartermaster’s depart ment at St. Louis, to the people left homeless through the ravages of tho groot hurricane on the South Carolina coast. Secretary Lament, was anxious to scud subsistence ns well, but found there was noither money nor storos available for this purpose. A Washington dispatch says: The stato of South Carolina, by its attor neys, filed with tho commissioner of patents Wednesday a motion for a re view of his recent decision declining to register thetvord “Palmetto” on a trade mark in connection with the manufacture and sale of whisky in South Carolina. The commissioner read tho liriof filed in the cast, and at once rendered his decision, declining to reopen tho case. Josiah Quincy, ol Massachusetts, has resigned the office of assistant secretary of state to which lie was appointed by President Cleveland, This action has for some time been anticipated, Mr. Quincy having accepted the position expectation.* of .relinquishing iUBBIn short service. Since] the vention was held, it has been that there would be an imperative de mand for Mr. Quincy to assume charge of the approaching campaign. His resignation, as a consequence, creates no surprise. Secretary Carlisle has decided to meet the treasury deficit by issuing silver certificates against the seignor age of the bullion purchased under tho Sherman law. He estimates that tho deficit for the year will be fifty millions, which would be covered by tho coinago of the seignorage and tho issuo of certificates oil the silver pur chased to September Ist. The neod for money, especially paper currency, is so pressing that tho secretary will recommend the issuo of certificates in advance of the actual coinage, which would enable the treasury to meet its obligations without making further inroads on the gold reserve. (Vrtiflcnlen Not to Ilf Taxed. Commissioner Miller sent out a cir cular recently to tho internal revenue collectors which is causing a good deal of speculation. It lias been under stood to mean in some quarters that the oircular merely intended to im pose alO per cent, tax on clearing house certificates for local circulation. Commissioner Miller stated Friday that there was nothing at all of that nature intended. The circular was in suod merely for tho purpose of pre venting the banks from issuing the small bank notes that have beeu put in circulation lately. That is all there is to it. Tho circular does apply, however, to certified cheeks payable to bearer and issued for circulation in tho placo of money. A Hatch of Nomlnnttoiin. The president sent to the senate, Friday, the following nomidations: Theodore Runyon, of New Jersey, ambassador extraordinary and pleni potentiary of tho United States to Germany; Albert 8.

A delicate invalid custard ia made as follows: Boat up two eggs, mix in of milk, sugar to lemon or nutmeg flavor ing ; when well stirred ponr the mix ture into a buttered bowl, cover with buttered paper and steam in a sauce pan of boiling water, which should come about half way up tho sides of the bowl, for half an honr. A savory custard is made in the same way, sub stituting cold beef ten, free from all fat, for tho milk, and of course leav ing out tho Bugar. —St. Louis Re public. VEAL TATE. Chop fine three pounds of lean voal and half a pound of fat fresh pork. Mix with the chopped meat one coffee cupful of bread crumbs and three well beaten eggs; add two even teaspoon fuls of salt and one salt-spoonful of pepper. Stir all thoroughly together and moisten with a little soup Htock. Pack in a buttered mold which has been rinsed in cold water after greas ing. Cover tightly nml steam over five hours. Turn out of tho mold and put in a warm oven for half an honr, leaving tho oven door open. Put un der a heavy press and allow the meat to become very cold. Slice in thin slices and garnish with parsley.—New York Recorder. BOAST BEET’ S HEABT. This is a dinner dish that always catches the appetite of all English men, and hero is the true English stylo of cooking it: Get from your butcher a nice, plump, firm heart; let it stand in a pan of cold water in which a handful of salt has been dis solved for half an hour. Prepare a stuffing of grated bread crumbs one good-sized onion, a sprig of parsley, a teaspoonful of dried Bago (or better yet is green sago when you can get it), a piece of butter tho Bize of an egg, aud pepper and salt. Mix these to gether with one well-beaten egg, fill all the holes in tho heart with stuffing and boil for one hour in a small saucepan in which the heart can stand upright, so that the stuffing cannot boil out. After it has boiled slowly for an hour take out of tho water, cover the top of tho a largo slice of larding pork and roast for two hours, basting frequently. Sorvo wjt.h ourrant jelly on very hot plates, and see that the slioes are cut thin and lengthwise of the heart —it will be more tender. Serve some of the stuffing on each plate.—Now York Tribune. flB GREEN OBAPJ!

It will be easy to those living in the country or those having their own grapo vines to procure greon grapes. But the most delicious grape preserve I have ever tasted was made of fox grapes that grew wild in stony meadows. It is quite possible even for those living in cities to get wild grapes by bargaining with some huckster or marketman at the right time. The grapes should be bought when they are still hard, lieforo they liavo softened in the least, but when they have attained nearly or quite their full size. Having got your grapes, provide yourself with a small, sharp penknife, and cut each grape iu half exactly ns you would an orange. Then remove the seeds and throw the fruit into cold water. It will talco you all day to do fourteen pounds, but tho preserves arc worth the trouble. Once seeded, tho process is tho samo as for other fruit. Use granulated sugar, allowing pound for pound. Cook until tho sirup jellies when cool, and seal in the ordinary manner. This preserve is very rich and of an entirely different flavor from that made of ripe grapos, and is sufficiently acid not to cloy, and is the best “sweet” I know of to servo with meats. —Chicago Record. HOUSEHOLD HINTS. Mend the torn pages of books with white tissue paper. Clean brass kettles, beforo using, with salt and water. Clean plaster of pans ornaments with wet starch brushed off when dry. A shovel of hot coals held over spot ted varnished furniture will take out the spots. After knives have been cloaned they may b brilliantly polished with char coal powder. It saves timo and labor to have a broom, brush and dustpan for every floor in the house. Flatirons should bo kept os far re moved from tho steam of cooking os possible, as this is what causes them to rust. Two parts ot ammonia with one of turpentine makes a mixture whioh will soften old point and varnish so that they can be cosily scraped off. A towel rock made with several aims fastened to a half circular centre, which in turns fastous to the wall, is a con venient placo for drying dish towels. To clean hard woods and oil cloths wash first with a soft sponge dipped frequently in fresh water. When the door has dried, wash it again with a rog dipped in a mixture of hot water and skim milk. Lemon will do for the yellow white sailor what shoe polish does for the worn black one. Remove the ribbon band, and, with a slice of lemon, clean the straw thoroughly. Put on a fresh band, sad the hat ie white and fresh.
