THE FORMAL, OCCUPATION OF THE
NEW CAPITOL.
The Adjutant General Runs Up Hts
New Flag-*—Alliance Men Stirred Up
by the National Lecturer's Attempt
to Influence Action on the Olive BIIL
Atlanta, Ga., July 2.—The adjutant
general hoisted two brand new state flags
over ths capitol today, firing them over
th:- House and Senate wings in honor of the
arrival of the legislature. Nearly all the
n* mbers reached the city to-day, and most
of them visited the new building. The lag

morning at 10 o'clock in the old capitol.
The governor will send a me sage announo
ing that the new capit 1 is ready, a id both
bodies will march over at once. The
further ceremonies will be arranged after
organizing in the new chamber.
THE OLIVE BILL.
There has been sr me gossip here to-day
about an alleged difference between the
National Farmer’s Alliance and the state
alliance with refe euee to the Olive bill. J.
R. Sledge, of the natio al alliance, is a
member of the national e tton committee
and one of the ow ers of t e National
EeoYi mist of Washington, D. C , and
it is reported a coining from
him that the national alliance is hoatile to
the Olive bill, and will opp'e it* passage.
The News cor aspondent brought this re
port to the notice of leading members < f
the state alii nee, and they expressed some
indignation over it. On -• f them said that
the officials of the national alliance have
been too much inclined to interfere in
purely local matters pertaining to the
Georgia tsate alliance.
LECTURER TERRELL'S VIEWS.
Recently CoL Benjamin Terrell, the
national lecturer, while in this state took
occasion to express views somewhat similar
to those reported as those of Mr. Sledge and
was disposed to talk against tne Olive bill
till the state alliance shut him up. They
are n >w af er Mr. S edge, and if he is mix
ing up in the matter as reported, he will be
ordered out of the state. They quote Presi
dent McCune of the national alliance as
saying very recently that the national or
ganization had nothing to do with the posi
tion of the Georgia alliance on the Olive bill
and would not interfere.

KILLED BY A RUNAWAY HORSE.
A Woman Run Over on the Sidewalk
at Columbus.
Columbus, Ga,, July 2.—At noon to-day
Mrs. R. M. Hill, an estimable woman of
Browneville, was run over and killed by a
runaway horse. The horse belonged to M.
Joseph, and was attached ti a sulky drive l
by John Joseph, a solicitor for M. Joseph’s
establishnie t. At the time of the accident,
•which occurred at. what is known as Pitt
man’s corner, Mrs. Hill was passing al ng
the sidewalk en route to the Eagle and
Phcenix mills to carry dinner to her chil
dren, who ar* operatives there. The horse
became frig tened at something and ran
away, throwing the driver out.

The horse then took the sidewalk, and ran
over Mrs. Hill, killing her almost instantly.
She saw the frighte e.d animal coming, ami
tried to get out of the wav, but being large
and fleshy, as well as aged and feeble, she
could not do so in time. Sue was struck
with full force in the breast by ihe s iarp
shattf of the vehicle, and was theu tram
pled on by the horse. She lived a few
moments after the accident, but never
■poke, and in a short while life was extinct,
notwithstanding the earnest efforts of
friends and physicians* She was an esti
mable woman, and had many friends.

SHE MARRIED BOTH SUITORS.
Her Unwillingness to Displease Either
Causes Her street for Bigamy.
From the Sew For* World.
Columbia, S. C., June 24.—At the ap
proaching term of the court of general ses
sions for York county, which ojiens on
July 1, there will be tried one of the most
sensational cases ever heard tn this state,
and one which will cause tne greatest inter
est, not only because of the oro iiiuent char
acter of the persons implicated, but from
the peculiar character of the ev.dence
which wlI be given. Mrs Dr. D. C. At
kinson, who is generally caLed Miss Flor
ence Little, and sometimes M s. Angus:
Mintz, will be tr.ed for bigamy. Mrs. At
kinson is an exceedingly ha id me and re
fined >ouiig lady of Id, and is a member of
one of the most respected families of York
county.
Two years ago, after her education was
completed, Miss Little, wbioh was t en her
name, whatever it may now be, went to
live with an aunt in the town of Blocks.
She ian orpha i. She very soon became
the belle of that little place, aid the fame
of her beauty quickly spread to other
towns i. the vicinity. One ofter most de
voted admirers, and the one to w hom she
seemed most fav rbly disposed, was Au
gustus Mintz, a you.b about her own age.
He fail in love with her and they became
eecretly engaged. In the meantime, how
ever, Dr. I). (_'. Atkiuson, a prumine.it and
good-looking young man of co siderable
means from Chester, S. C., had met Miss
Little, and it had proved with turn a case
of love at first sight, He soon felt himself
sufficiently encouraged to ask for her hand,
an i he, also, was promptly accepted.
After several postponements the mar
ria,e with Dr. Atkinson was definitely fixed
for April 1, IbSS. On the evening of March
31, the day before she was to be married to
Dr. Atk.uson, Mss Little went to drive
with you g Mintz, who knew nothing of
his i eti othed’s second engagement. T .ey
remained out for several hours, aud dark
ness overtook them on the way home.
When passing the house of a country
preacher Mintz begged Miss Little to marry
him then and there. She finally con
sented to be married on condition that the
contract would be kept a secret for thiee
years, and that he did not claim her as a
wife during that time. Mintz agreed to
those terms. The Rev. J. G. Carter was
thereupon called out of his house, and by
the light of the rising moon married the
lovers while they were seated ii the buggy.
The couple immediately returned to town
and the young ladv parted from her hus
band at the door of her aunt's house.
But during the absence of Mrs. Mintz an
accident bad happened. Dr. Atkinsou had
come to be married, and finding his in
tended wife absent after dark with a man
whom he had regarded as his rival, he be
came exceedingly angry nnd declared the
marriage a id engagement ended, and re
turned to hs home without seeing Miss
Little. When the young ladv heard of tins
she immediately wrote to Dr. Atkinson,
begging him to return and receive an ex
planation. She also succeeded iu getting
some of the doctor's relatives to intercede
for her, and they finally pe, suaded Dr. At
kinson that, he had acted harshly toward
t.;e young lair, and a week afterward he
returned to Blocks and they were imme
diately married.
As soon as the ceremony had been per
formed August Mmtz tola his father of his
own marriage, and claimed Mrs. Atkinsnn
as his lawful wife. The young ladv re
fused to go to him, and stoutly denied his
story. Dr. Atkiuson was persuaded that
his bride bad never married any one but
himself, and took her borne with him,
where t .ev lived together for two weeks in
happiness’ But at tne end of that time
Florence made a tearful acknowledgment
to tje doctor that she was not his wife, and
that Mintz’s story was only too true. Dr.
Atkinson immediately se it the unfortunate
y ung woman to her relatives.
Tne unfortunate young lady was now in
a very embarrassing position, Her la-vful
husband would not have any hing to do
with her. Dr. Atkinson would not lake her,
and unfortunately it was impossible for any
of the parties to obtain a divorce in this
state. The young lady finally returned to
Dr. Atkiuson, and they lived together in
Chester until five months ago, when the.
moved to the town of Yorkville, and have
been living there eversinoe. A mouth ago
Mrs. Atkiuson was arrested on a charge of
bigamy, but was released on bail. The
prose utlon is bei g pressed by J. C. Mintz,
ihe father of Augustus. He has engaged
able attoi neys to assist the state’s solicitor.
The crime of ; igaray is punished in tuis
state by imprisonment in the penitentiary
at hard labor, ad tuere is uo alternative.
Marriage is not held to le logal here,
however, uuless the eouple have lived to
gether, and as this was not the case with
Mr. Mintz and his wife it is proba le that
thedefeuse will eodeavor to prove that
their marriage was not a legal one and that
consequently Mrs. Atkinson is not guilty of
bigamy. All her trouble seems to have
been caused by the thoughtlessness of a
young school girl. Since her marriage to
Dr. A kius m s e has conducted herself in
such an exemplary manner toat she has
gained the respect and esteem of all with
whom she has co tie in coutact, and she is
pitied very generally. The reason for the
harsh measures reported by Mr. Mtutz can
not be understood, unless it is to have his
son freedjfrom the|bonas which now encum
ber him. It is thougnt pretty certain that
no 8 iuth Carolina jury will condemn a
young and t eautiful girl to the penitentiary
for a crime caused by indiscretion, and, if
it did, is more certain that the governor
would not let her stay there.

HEALTHFUL FOR WOMEN.
Horseback Riding Recommended by
Nearly All Physicians.
From the Xew York Evening Prjit.
Of all out-door exercises hors-joack riding
is one of the most popu ar. Besides the
exhilaration of the ex-rcise to the rider
there is a kind of power, real or imaginary,
in t,e ability to move about a few feet
above the ordinary level of mankind
For many years our riding schools have
been full of ladies and gentlemen, some en
tering merely as pupil > and e thers choosing
the ring for the exercise in preference to
the park. The latter place is the vantage
ground for the really enthusiasts ndera,
and it is a pity to t link there is any injury
in the exercise, altao-jgh the prot st is
heard occasionally in regard to women. It
is interesting to know the opi.iion of sev
eral of the leading physicians on tne sub
ject.
Dr. T. Galliard Thomas, who is an author
ity on the ails of women, having given his
time to taeir study all his life, says:
“I advocate horseback riding most thor
oughly. I consider it one of the best exer
cises we have. Of course, ar.y exercise nay
be indulged in t o freely-bicycling, rim
ing, dancing, walking or driving—so that a
woman wi.l iujure herself; but iu modera
ti n I know iiorsrback riding to be very
aealthful. I believe rowing to be tne most
idesirab.e aclio i for bringing all the m is
cl -s into play, but horseback riding comes
in among the best possible modes of exer
cising the body. Tne members of my fami
ly ride every day, I ride my elf end send
numbers of patients to the riding school.
“I cannot say that I advoc te riding
all day long aud every day, as some ladies
do who go to the hunts that have now be
come popular in various piris f the coun
try; but that is the excess of the exercise.
A w .man might kili herself praying, but
that is no sign that praying is not go-d.
Driving is not co isidere 1 an injurious ex
ercise by any means, an l still I have known
women who have, at the end of a drive,
made a jump irom the carriage to the
ground, aud have fatally injured the n
selves. Not that jumpnig is always bad for
women, but it is the way it is done, aud so
with horseback riding.”
‘‘Do girls who have been brought up to
ride ma*e hea thi-r w.men tuau tuose wuo
have not?” Dr. Tuom is was asked.
‘'Without a doubt,” was his reply.
Dr. Josepu W. Howe, one of the consult
ing surgeons at the Charity Hospital, when
questioned as to his opinion aDout horse
back riding for women, said:
"Indulged in moderately there is no more
reason why a womau should not ride than
a man. U course we ca i kill ours-lves
eating or drinking or doing anything else in
an extreme way, which, done in an ordi
nary manner, simply carries out the laws of
existence aud bealtn. I often order horse
back riding for my patients.”
"Does it matter what s >rt of gait the
horse takes?” Dr. Howe was asked.
"Yes, the movement of an untrained
horse that tr ts card would be far more apt
to injure a wumau than the easy canter of
a good auitnaL I consider the latter gait
the mure do irable. Anything carried to a. i
extreme might become injurious. Com
pared with norsebacu riding, da.icing is a
much more harmful exercise. Ladies danc
ing in a heated room and then standing in an
open window or going out into the nigut air
thinly ciad are in far greater danger tnan
those who ride horseback.”
Dr. Mary Bafford, a physician of wide
experience in the treatment of women,
said:
“I most earnestly recommend horseback
riding as a healthful exercise. It stimulates
both the muscles and the miud. olaay
women think they are ill, and stoop and Od
conia bent with .he calamity which they
suppose is upon them, instead of taking the
wiser method of healthful exercise aud oc
cupation to work themselves out of their
uncomfortable state ”
Dr. T. A. Emmet, whose name is well
known as a physica l for women, when the
question was put to him, said:
"k depends entirely upon the individual,’
and alihouga the answer has the air of be
ing a little more conservative tuau the opin
ions of the other physicians, it may be
taken as being far from an indication that
Dr. Emmet is not an advocate of the exer
cise.
It will be readily agreed that ladies have
a more jaunty and trim appearance when
mount-d for a ride now tnan they had a
few years ago. Skins are worn m eh
shorter, and tueiutroductiun of a white or
scarlet waistcoat is far from being an ob
jectionable addi.ion. There must not be
an unnecessary inch used iu tue habit.
When a lady’s measure is taken her hignt
is obtained from t-.e waist down on the
right side, Tue skirt at this point is made
merely a good walking length; on the left
side it must be long enough tc cover the
feet when the rider is mouuted. If she de
sires to walk she lifts the skirt on the leit
side and attaches it to a hook on the belt,
and in this garb may step in absolute com
fort. ihe material used is called riding
usbit doth, and is heavy enough so tuat
when made it clings to the figure and does
not require a border of snot 10 hod i: in
place. Melton cloths are sometimes used
tor ruling habits, a lighter quality being
chosen f-r umuier than for winter.
Black i- tue prevailing color, but it gives
place to gray, tan and navy blue during he
warm season. Trousers are always made
of Jersey cloth, as this material submits to
the strain of tne figure in different posi
tions. that ladies have a strong inclina
tion to assume man’s attire is illustrated in
their speedy adoption of boots ami a nigh
hat when it is considered good taste tor
them to bo worn. No fnsuio.mble riding
costume is complete without the e appur
tenances, although a preleronce is given to
the derby hat ii it is more becoming
Tno bodice must fit as well, and look as
snug and trim as the hand of a tailor
cun make it, and the only suggestiou of
adornment is in the white or colored waist
coat airrady mentioned.
Jewelry Is entirely out of place on n
horseback rider, anil is never to be indulged
in under any p.etext. The gloves are usual
ly tan color, aitaough for dresi occasi ns—
parade, so to speak—tne hands are incased
in gloves of a light shade of lavender, l'nis
style is copied from English radies. Suede
gloves are chosen in preference to any glace
kid, because with them it is possible to b Id
the reins more steadily.
A ROYAL BRIDE’S TROUSSEAU.
A Wealth of Finery for the Princess
of Greece.
St. Petersburg Letter to Pall Mall Gazette.
Visions of filmy laces, stka, embroideries,
ribbons, satins, furs and plushes rise now
before my eyes after an inspection of the
trousseau of the Princess It >yal ot Gi oece,
the wedding present of the Empress of
Russ a to her niece.
Two of the salons of the Winter palace
were required to hold it, which is nothing,
however, to be wondered at when one re
members it has o st over 30J,000 roubley
about £BO,OOO of English money.
In the first salon—which happened to be
the famous white salon of the palace—were
arranged ail round the enormous trunks,
bound in red morocco leather with band
some brass m luntings, a royal present in
themselves, which were to hod the trous
seau, ad under a white linen covering on a
side table were piled the damt. pillows to
be used by her royal highness. These w ere
ail sizes aud shapes, from the wide fuil
1, ngta pillow to tue charming little guost
of a pillow about the size of one’s bund,
which Russian ladies find it impossible to
sleep without, ad which rest ju-t under
the ear, reaching to about the middle of tue
cheek. They were of eiderdown, softer
than anything I have felt ref ore, and weie
inclosed in a slip of the finest Chinese silk
of a perfectly uelicious s ell-pink color—a
color to make one dream ot ethereal clouds
and the dawn.
Opposite tnese, on another table, in a long,
wadded, satin-lined box of ruse wood, w ere
the furs—a circular cloak of magnificent
black sable, faced with rich ruby velvet; a
boa of the same, which even when tied
must reach to the toes of her royal high
ness. and a dainty muff.
Besil-s these were the traveling dre-sing
cav-s of silver, ons holding al- the dozen of
tr flex ary for a tody's toilet, with a
hand-ome oval-hap-d mirr r repo-ing on
the blue velvet li mg, and w,th a drawer
unierueath, wnich. when opened, disci sel
a tonet bom and jug, with amorous little
snap dishes, all of sliver: the sec md case
containing the siiv-r spirit lam .for heating
water, a tea and c .'fee pot a.d hot water
juir all, too, of s.lver.
In the second room, the famous Golden
Saion where tne empress holds her recep
tions, were all the gowns, dresses, gooes,
faus, u-idei cloth.ng, cloaks and mant.es of
ail descriptions.
The first gown we looked at was, of
course, tne all-impor'ant wedding oue! It
was simo y dazzuug. It was being made,
of course, alter the style of ail Russian
court gowns, the entire train, several yards
long, being of a wonderful cioth of silver
manufacture! at Moscow, and worked all
over in silver also, with a magnificent
highly raised embroidery. It was cut low
in the neck, with wide, long sleeves to the
wrist, where they were narrowed aud
fastened, being open, however, from the
shoulder to display tne inside of the arm,
the o dy r-dief to all the magn.ficene being
a tiny niching of white swausdown all
arou .and the sloeves from the shoulders and
around tue bodice.
Another court gown quite on the same
pattern was of royal blue velvet, and with
the same wonderful em Tindery, only of
g >ld roses and trails of leaves and buds,
being heavily raised ail over the entire
velvet train aud budice.
Then there were biu- silks and sati is of
all shades, whites, w hich were variously
e nbroidered i.i gold, silver ad pearl, a
gray silk with pretty pink bows, some
greens n all shades, and a heavy gros-grain
silk in dull brick red, wi,h handsome trim
mings of jet. Browns and creams were tne
only two colors we missed. Among the
unmade gowns were b.ack brocided silks
and tulles, spinglei witu tiny dots w silver
and gold.
Tne opera cloaks and wraps were all if
them perfectly supe b. Some we e of
plush, others of silk, but all tri ~mel with
hanjaome embroidjiies and long fringes.
One rich white silk was almost covered
with exquisite.embroiderv ii gold, anotner
in heliotrope, and a soft pearl gray piu.su
was covered with a wonderful Fers an de
sign in gray, rod and blue silk, something
like the inu mprenensible ide you see in
P iisley shawls; one small mantle ii pale
heliotrope silk, with handsome lace ti lm
mings, being delicious in its and lintinesi
All of the mantlet nad jeweled clasps, the
das,, for the fur cloak being gold heavi.y
studded w ith diamonds.
O.i one lung rack reaching the entire
length of the salon were an ange i the .petti
coats. We noticed tao only of flannel, one,
a white one, being trimmed with two
flou'ic -s of lace, and the other, a red one,
embr i lered after a Russian desigu in royal
blue silk. Tnen there were white silk aud
sa m pettic ats without e id; d-licious petti
coats in lawn, some covered with lace and
ribbons, others with flsunces and frills of
beau lful Valenciennes lace and the fine-t
possible pleats and tucks, while otae petti
coats were of rich pale silks and satins, one
beautiful one being of a Deautiful crimson
with coffee colored lice.
The morning gowns alone were a sight in
themselves, s me of the white lawn ones
being perfectly delightful. One very haud
s ime gown was of paly ros> oink plush,
wirh broad moire ribbons and Brussels lace
and an unusually long train of p.ush edged
w ith lace. Another lovely one was of rich
blue silk, and still anotner of white foulard,
with dainty sprays of pale pink rosebuds
stamped upon it.
A large square table alone was required
to hold the almost endless varieties of dainty
silk stockings; these were of all hues and
patterns, some extra beautiful ones bei g
embroidered in gold, others in silver, others
in pearl, while some pairs had beautiful in
sertions of lace worked in over tne instep.
On another table were placid the stioes
and gloves, both being in endle.-s profusion
and var ety, but am ng ail the dainty
satins and kids of all forms I noticed some
pairs of strong high boots, witn two soles
t gethei, quite an inch thick, made on the
pattern of t 09e the empress herself always
wears at Gatscnina of Feterhof, or any of
tho summer pal ices, for walki ig.
Tne gloves were of all lengths and prin
cipally kid, many of the snorter ones being
of a ric i, deep tin c dor.
The fans and handkerchiefs, too. were all

Florence Nightingale has written the fol
lowing. letter to a "Band of H pi” con
necter with a church in Edinburgh, Scot
land: “Don’t think you can do anything
worth and dug iu a fit of enthusiasm, but
train y mrselves carefully to auy work you
are called o i to do; aid think nothi g too
small to do earefudy, or to train carefully
for, that is for tne go .and of your feLow
creatures. F r instance, good or bad cook
ing may make or mar the lives of thou -
sands, and tuose, too, who ire trying to do
g eat things for our race. Gsi sends us
■ eal and Tasting enthusiasm—that is, the
spirit of love ad of power, and of a souu i
mi,id to carry us through our training and
our discipline.”
