Several Bills Read the Second Time and a Few New Ones Introduced— Vice President Stahlman Talus About the State Road Question- Value of the Atlanta and West Point Road. Atlanta, Ga., July ia—The Senate was In recess to-day, as is usual on Satur day. Much of the time in the House was de voted to readi g bills the second time, but the following new bills were brought in: By Mr. Clifton of Chatham—To incorpo rate the town of Warsaw. Aiso to allow notaries public, who are ex-officio justices of the peace of Chatham, to hold their •ourts at separate places from the places of holding elected justices’ courts. By Mr. Smith of Gwinnett—To provide for the payment of costs in divorce cases iu ad ra ce. By Mr. Hardeman of Bibb—To authorize the and awing of jurors from cou ties oi .er than that in which is pending a trial of a felony case. THE STATE HOAD SENSATION. There was considerable talk about the capital to-day over l' e pubh-hed rumor that the Louisville and Nasnvilie pr posed to precipitate au issue with the state on betterments by tearing tip sidings, and, to go to the Tennessee courts, and bad put the scheme iu the minds of H. I. glimhaFl for execu ion. \ .ce Pre.-ident t hlman, of the L uisville and Nashville railroad, said to the Neivs to-day that the rumois were without foundation so far a they c meet Mr. Kimball with the Louisville and Nashville. They have not employed Mr. Kimball in any capacity, and be is not in any sense authorized to speak for them. TV bile it is true the Lo is ville and Nashville company, which lias the largest into est in the expiring lease, has discussed i lans of taking the question into the courts, it has no desire to do s>, and isopes au equitable settlement will be reached with tue legislature. Vice Presi dent Stahluian further advised the News' correspondent that the I, uLvulo and Nash ville Company would probauly bid for the lease. He (rankly slated that the Louis ville and Nashville company was pre paring to ask the legislature for betterments, and the claim would be for the amount of betterments ascertained by the couimis sion wbfih recently up 1 raised the road, putting them at $750,3)00. Mr. Stahlman ir.s.sfs that if the minimum rental is made $35,000 per month it will be leased to some corporation having necessity for the r ad, as the figure is beyond its earning capacity, •which would drive off individual bidder-. He further declared that the lease has paid ro dividends—not #1 since the Kast Tennes see road was built, six or seven years. VALUATION OF THE ATLANTA AND WEST POINT. Tlie board of assessors appointed by the fovernor to appraise t e Atlanta and West Pint railroad completed its report to day, valuing the property at $1,592,975, against $1,504,410 as returned by tbe roa i. The Western and Atlantic lea*e bill w i 1 be reported to the House next Tuesday or Wednesday. The committee has tiearlv perfected the bill, and will probably hold Its last mee ing Monday. Judge Harden was here to-day, in the hands of the Chatham delegation, and was tendered a seat on the floor of the House. MOVEMENT OF MELONS. The Car Loads Moved Yesterday and Their Destinations.

He calls her a “magnificent ship," ar.d says she will be one of tho m >s. formidable vessels afloat when fully equipped and armed. Tue run lasted three days, ad was taken by the contractors for tho purpose of ascertaini g how the ma cbinery worked in the sea-way. A COMPLETE SUCCESS. “The trial,” said the commodore, “was a complete sun-ess. Tho vo sol was taken outside, a..d was run through a heavy swell. She wns uu-equipped. and her gun • were not compensated for by extra weights. Everything worked beautif dly, and pointed to the complete fulfillment of tho contract requirements.” Commodore Schley said that be did not want to give any official figures of the three days’ run, ns he thought they should come fro Mr. Cramp. He adds that he is thor oughly satisfied with h:s prospects. THE NEW 3.000-ton CRUISERS.

ROSENTHAL GETS OFF. Criminal Proceedings Dropped After He Had Paid Up. Quitman, Ga., July 13.—Rosenthal’s SI,OO ) lias cmie and he has paid all claims against him and left to-day for New York. A good many regret that the criminal s.de of the raso was not pushed, but there was some doubt of being able to get the evidence iu proper shape to insure a conviction, and apr secutio would also probably have de layed those who hart lost through Rosenthal in getting their money. Tfii- case will, at any rate, have the g >od effect of making the people more careful iu the future. RAIL AND CHOSSTIE. Tho through sleeper via the Central to Birmi gham will bo resumed, commencing to-night. Ttie fastest regular express trains in the United States ru.t between Philadelp ia and Washington. They maintain an aver age speed of forty-five miles an hour during toe entire distance. The Jacksonville Metropolis says that Capt. \\. B. Watson is now in Now York looking after tho details of the proposed new steamers to be built for next season's business on Indian river. The citizens of Eastman and Dodge county met at Eastma i Friday for tho purpose of taking neti in in regard to the elf > t being made before the legi-laturo t > forfeit the eha ter of the Sava mall and Western Rail road Company, ad also to give expression with reference to what is known as the “Ouve bill." Resolutions were pa sed con demning the bill to forfeit the Savannah and Western’s charter, and also the Olivo bill. The W n.ll Street News thinks it would bo interesting to know who took the responsi bility of assembling toget er the capitalists and the owuers of the great rai roads of the United States, for the purpose of forming a trust, and, copying after the industrial trusts, organizing one grand proprietary company, a sort of a mauuuouth Richmond Terminal, to run all the western roads. Certainly no man of intelligence over sup posed for a moment . hat it would bo possi ble io organize any company to do for the great railroads of the we t what the Rich mond Terminal C unpmyis trying to do with the railroads in a single district. The Richmond Terminal undertaking, as co n parod to this, is like running a penny candy stand and John Wunamai; *r’s establish ment doing a bu iness of $15,000,000 every year. We are uot likely to see a thousand million dollar railway trust either this year or next. HIGH STRUCTURES VIBRATE. A Remarkable Peculiarity of All Tall Buildings. Front the New fork Telegram. The attention qf President Orr has been called to a remarkable peculiarity of the produce exchange tower. Ho was informed that the tall structure vibrated perceptibly whenever there was even a light wind, and that a gale caused a decided swaying motion. Some of the brokers were surprised when they learned that the tower did not stand firm, but Alfred E. Pearsall cai n-d them by saying that ail tall structures had tho same peculiarity. Any properly built .vail w.U vibrate. The tallest piece of masonry work in Denver as just been completed in the finish of the slack of the city railway building. This stack vibrates. When th.,' large chimney was built at the Grant smelter, in Denver, the me i wno were finishing it c uld just see the edge of tbe roof of some freight cars under the e tst wall of the building, and in order t demon strate to fi tends they invited them up, and all who w ent and lay down on the platform on the top, so they could not move their bodies, say that one moment they could see tbe edge of the car and the next they could not. There was little or no wind at tie time, and yet the stack moved nearly five inoaes. But five inches only makes a brick layer srni.a; eigh.eeu does uot frighted him in the least. Another strange circumstance is the dif ference tit tho inside measure nent of walls. An arc .itect denies it, but the carpenters find the br.ck lays right. Suppose two | walls,carried 110 ftet high, 100 apart.should be erected. According to the plumb bob each wall is perpendicular and a straight as a die, but st will take throe inches m ue j of lumber to build the roof than it did t e j tlr t floor. Actually the walls are three I inches wider on the insi le at the top than j at the ground line, and contractors for high j building* also figure tor it. Still, both ' w lls are built *ti aight sky ward. The ex j planation is simple: The earth is round; the na Is were star.ed 100 feet apart, eacn : built 110 feet high aujl strnignt. They are j onch on a different portion of ;hegl be,and ' are, therefore,erected ou entirely i idep? pl ant angles, carrying teem three inches apart, with no danger of falling, because they are held by gravitation.

WOMAN HAS AT LAST CON QUERED THE BICYCLE. Central Park Alive With Fair Cyclers Pauline Hall the Most Skllllul Rider In New York-Hew They Are Taught. (Copyright ISS9.i New York, July 13.—The tricycle is about to bee ms a thing of the past. The ladies’ b.cj-cle, which was introduced last season, i* already superseding the clumsy three-when led machine and is winning its way int > general favor at a rapid rate. At Bid well’s instruction hall, on Broad way and Fifty-Second street, half of the learners are women. The attendant gives, on an average, eighteen leone* a day in the art of wheeling, and not more (ban half of them are take i by the sex tr.at for so many year s has moncpoliztd the bicycle. Pauline Hal! is peri Bps the best known of all the New York w men who use the bi cycle. It wa. introduced in New York last August and she was tue second woman ia this city who learned to rid;. Hhe takes great pleasure iu cycling, declaring that she gets more sat.sla-Don out of h-r w esl than out of any of her other possessions. She can be seen in Cos tral park almost any tine duy, where her skill in handling the machino and her rapid riding always at tract attention. S e wears a cycling suit of dark blue flannel, made with a full, plaiu skirt and blouse waist. The first woman in this region to adopt the bicycle was the -. ife of District At or nev O kez of Biooklyn and she was soon f Bowed by Mrs. A. ij. Cos sitt of Harlem, Mrs. Jo ephir e Redding, the editor of Art Interchange and Home Decoration, Mrs. Boerui) ei, whose hu ban lis prominent in athletic spor.s, Mrs. E. .1. de Coppot, Mrs. S. Hollander, Mrs. A frt-d Watkins. Mrs. W. W. Besson, Mrs. E. J. Shimer, Mrs. L. H. Newcomb, and so many o h rs that the -ale of the ladies’ wheel has received a great impetus. H.therto the majority of those who have learned w ere mhrried women whose hus bands were cyclers, but this spring a groat many misses aud young woiu-ii are follow ing their example. The attendant in the iustruction hall declares that it is much easier to t“aeh a young girl how to inou it and control the cranky two-wbeel?r than a woman. The former will frequently larn in three or four half hour lessons, while the latter will req lire anywhere from ion to fifteen. Great care is taken that, the women pupils do not get either hurt or frightened. They wear a broad, stout licit with a handle on one side which the at eu danc holds with one hand while ue guides the steering blr with tlie other. Tho learner is gradually accustomed to the mysteries of balancing i,e self, altering the macnine and working tho pe tali and sbo is not turned loose on tho public drives until she is quite competent to take care of herself. As yet there lias not been a single case of even a trifling accident to a woman b cycler. A good many of the cycling clubs in and around New York have already begun to consider the question of admitting women to in mbership. Those that, act with tricy cles have long had nomen on the roll, aid the bicycle clubs wiil pro ably soon open tneir doors also. There are two young ladies in Newark, the Misses Mulford, who have attained gn at ski.l with the bicycle. They recently rode from Elizabeth to New ark in fifteen minutes. Most of the ladies who have taken up cy cling have done so because they had lius baads, friends or relatives interested in the snort, but a few have mounted tbe wheel at the earnest request of physicians. Among these, and perhaps the most conspicuous of them all, so far as resulting be iefit is con erned, is Mrs. Josephine Redding, whose work as editor of two popular art journals had well nigh worn her out. She was on tue verge of nervous prostration and had a so come perilously neart >j aralys's, whoa, as a last resort, she tried wheeling. The woman’s bicycle came out only a few months after she began and then she de serted the heavy, clumsy and hard run ling tricycle for the other light aud easy ma chine. She wheels herself for an hour every morning around the park or and nvn the Riverside drive, and is now a perfectly well woman. Tho woman’s bicycle h made on tbe same general plan as the tnon’s saf ty, and any serious accident with it is almost an impossibility. Tne woman’s machine has a dropped frame and is of the 2S inch size geared to 50, while the man’s is 8J getrsd to 54. But the former is as well fitted for bein ' ridden by a mail, if he wishes to, as the iatter. On a recont fine day a wheelman counted thirteen wotr ui on bicycles during a two hours’ ride through Ce itr 1 park, across Harlem and down Riverside drive. New York and tho western cities, how ever, monopolize the wo na i’s . icyc.e as yet. New England will have none of it, and the south looks at it askance. Florence Finch Kelly. PUGILISM FROM A CHICAGO PUL PIT. A Presbyterian Divine Finds tho Re cent Meeting Full of Valuable Sug gestions. From the Chicago Tribune. “If Mr. Brobst has never b en a profes sional trainer bis sermon in a great compli ment to his imagination,” said a gentleman from Clark street who was attracted to t ,e Westminster Presbyterian c uirc’i lateven ing by the announcement ihtt the minister would preach on “Prize Fights.” Mr. Brobst turned the thoughts of his audience into pugilistic channels at the outset y reading about “(li d’s strong right arm,” in the ninth verse of the ninety eighth Psai m. He quickly followed this by a lesson front Paul’s pa-sage: “I have fou fc ht a good tight..” Then he prayed tha, the audience might enter the arena of Christian faith. Finally ho sjlected for the c oir t e most combative hymn in the song book, “Brightly Gleams Our Ban nei!” Having thus prepared his audience, Mr. Brobst rolled up bis sleeves a little from the cuffs, and attache i the subject of the dis course. His text was the sentence in Paul’s first latter to tha church in Corinth; “Bo tight I, not ns one beating the air.” “Tiie gaze of nations and foreign coun tries,” he said, “is now centered on two men. The teles aph is throbbing with their movement*. Ine dailv press is given up to accounts of their condition. The pictorial press is filled with cuts, of their every mus cle. The world has followed them south to New Orleans. Throe governors have issued proclamations t > prev-n, their mooting. But t ey will meet, a id will meet to-mor row. “Who are these two men? They are too trained pugilists—two men of brawn. One is John L. Sullivan, who has anta-se i a fortune <>f over $600,000 tnr tig l his prowe*B in the prize ring. The other is Jake Kilratn, who tninks he can knock the Boston champion nut. “See them as they face each other for the fight!” Mr. Brobst squared himself behind tho pulpit. Ho threw his fists before tiis breast in a defensive, yet ready attitude. He slugged fr< m the shoulder, he sparred, he countered, he even closed with the pulpit, aud could easdy have thrown it over the ropes—from the rostrum. People almost, rose in their seats iu tne intensity of their interest. “Has the world advanced since the davs of tne Coliseum?” asked jir. Brobst, after a pause iit which he rubbed himself down wit i Ills handkerchief. “Has the world advanced? See the money poured out like water to witness this modem encounter. It used to be poured out iu Rome the same way. But Clear then pour dit out. The nobility poure I it out, Maide s poured it out. But tne President of tne United States is uot ou his way to New Orleans. Aud tht three governors who have issued their proclamations will not act ai referees. No la lies will be present. Iu view of this and ff< r enee in the class of attendants then aud now. I say the world has advanced. “Lock at the preparation these two men have gone th ough,” be said. “A short time ago they w -re dri ikers, sen-cal. beastly. But for week', and mouths they have been tern' erate— they have denied themse.ves. They have pa*ed througu the severest training. Talk about taking u < your cro*s. Christians! You ought to be ashamed of yourselves. Take a les-yn in hardship and denial from these pugilists! Think how they have worked to be ready for a fight which may last only a half hour. “What a lesson this is to u-l” wont o.i Mr. Brobst. “Many of us are letting ti e time for preparation slip by when we have haven’s battle to fight. “See the force they exert in the ring,’’ said Mr. Brobst, “the will power, the de termination. They hu r l themselves against each other. They struggle for hour after hour, round after round, until one falls. “They bond their every muscle and every thought to the fight,” continued M . Brobs . “They are willing to kill themselves to achieve victory. Tke another lesson, C'-risrians! “Then look at their skill. They have spent years learning the art of parrying, auil striki g. and grappling. Their train ing has aroused tie faculties of their brain so that they are rational in their work. They know what they are doing in the ihic-Ke-t of the fray. Mi isters hear it sai l that if th-y want to proach good sermons they should go l to the puipit and leave it to God to tell them what to say. But it takes skill to preach ag’O 1 sermon. Minis ters, take a lesson from the prize fighters! Christ aus, take another lesson! “L >ok next at the courage of these two men. We hear of Sullivan’s boasting and Kilram’s self-confi ieuCe If we could get near enough to them to-night, just on the eve of the battle to-morrow morning, I ex pect wo could boar iheir earts beat with anxiety. Reports get started that this one and then that one is going to back down. You hear it said that their trainers have to spur them up to make them come to t e scratch. Well, it takes courage to walk into a prize riug and stand up before a hu man catapultand take thechanceuf having your jawbone knocked out of recognition. But dal you over hear of prize fighters fail ing to cone to ti e? ihe.-e men will enne to time in themor ine juit as the Bro klyn champ'on a few week- ago showed up fresh after losing one side of his face. “The e.yes of the world areon these men,” said Mr. Brobst. “and they will face each other. Take another les-,011 from ti.eir cour age, Christians! “Look at the toughness of these two men. They are no delicate fellows. They are not to be scared by a firecracker. They are not to bo paralyzed by a scratch. They stand up as that man in Brooklyn did and take ox-felling blows. What contempt these men in their toughness have for suit, ri gl Take auother lesson, chri3tiaas! We are called on to suffer. Learn how to do it from these pugilists!” Mr. Brobst made a rush at the pulpit, grappled with it iu ai eloquent peroration, and pronounced the benedicti m over a audience which would have backed him on the spot against any featner weight in the ministry. A VANDERBILT VILLA. The Palatial Residence That Is Now Being Erected at Rough Point. Newport Letter to Chicago Tribune. Rough Point, Mr. Fred Vanderbilt’s $!,- 000,000 palace, as it is eloquently denomi nated by the stage drivers and other cicer ones, of course carries off the palm. It stands on one of the most advantageous corners of the cliff, where the great ledge of rocks juts straight out into the Atlantic, nnd the view is superb across the blue stretch of ocean to tne Brenton reef light ship, Narraga.isett pier, Poiut Judith, East river, Sachnest beach, Easton’s Point, West- Island and Little Com ,ton, and the 6 are nine acres in the grounds, which co n prise toe Tucker and Bunnell pla es thrown i-too ie. Fifteen hundred fee' it fronts upon the ciiffs, where the walk is open to the public. Landscape gardeners have been at work ever since the spring wns far enough advanced to allow them to make aiv progress against wind and cold, and the gr unds an already beginning to holl their own with any in Newport. As for tte house, which is long and low after the prevaili ig fashion, b tilt of gran ite and brownstone, it is—well, Vanderbitty! What better adjective could one apply? There is a large hall i t the center of .he main buil dug, opening straig it up to the roof, a id surrou .ded in the second story by a gallery like that in “The Breake, s,” Cor nelius Vanderbilt’s establishment. Astai od glass window in the rojf lights this hall with all ,od of rich, warm color, and il luminates the beautiful staircase of dark carved (-ak, and an enormous fireplace of granite facing the door adds to tue quaint old E iglish air of the Tnere is on first tl nor a handsome reception room in oak, with a wainscoting four feet deep, aud hangings of old loader, a ceiling of marvel jus stucco work, aud another fire place where Cinderella might expect to see the grandest kind of fairy godmother come down. Only there never could be any Cinderella in a Vanderbilt house. The di ring-room is also in oak, the walls being almost entirely covered with the carved wood, which reaches well up to the ceiling, fiuished by a frieze of gilded leather, the ceiling itself being formed of heavy timbers of oak. A • exquisitely carved sideboard of old oak, largo and sumptuous, is built into the room o.i one side. All tho rooms on the second fl ior are open aud spacious, artistically though not obstrusively finished and everything m the whole establishment is in careful ta-te, rich and expensive, as be fits the residence of a millionaire, but not in the lea-t garish aud showy. Mr. and Mr*. Vanderbilt have been staying at Hart man’s anxiously waiting for tueir charming homo to bes iiticie itly completed to allow t em to take possession of it. That they will entertain extensively rhis summer is probable, though their hospitality is of the most uuos ou.atious kind a.;d confined principally to dinners and luncheons.

In her death her husband was bereft of a lov ing. tender, devoted aad self sacrificing wife, her children lost a mother whose every eare, early and late, was for their eternal interests, and her neighbors and friends one who was dili gent in good deeds, quick to respond to the calls of charity: never considering self, but always the good others might derive from her deeds, silently giving—never letting the left hand know what the right doeth. The widow and the orphan were deprived in her death of a ready conn ellor and a quick and generous giver. She valued more the tear dropped from the eyes of grateful poverty on her hands tuan the and a monds that luxury wears. Her name was a synonym of charity. Her church, its service, laws and priesthood, were dear and tender to her; she knew them aud loved them, este-miug her gft of faith above riches, her duty to her God paramount to all worldly interest. In Faith and Hope and Charity she had lived the life of a consistent and practical Catholic, and God hath rewarded her with a happy and peaceful death—surround ing her dying bed with her large family, one a priest of God’s altar, the other a Sister of Mercy. She died the death of the just. “I have fought a good fight. I have finished my course. Iha e kept the faith. As to the rest there is laid up for me a crown of justice, which the Lord, the j u st judge, will render to me in that day: aud not culy to me, but to them also that love bis coming.”—St. Paul, Trio. ix. 7, 8. S. In remembrance of CHARLES ZINK, Died May 3. 1889, and CHARLIE ZINK, Son of the former, who died July 5, ISS6. v B-reft of them, our hones have fled, They're crushed by death's r lentless grasp, And what in them our hearts have lost. They only know who knew them best. As our mourning and our weeping, Our direct lamentations sound, A comfort for our woun ed hearts Far from celestial spheres resound. “Weep not for us. now we are gone. You once shall see our face again. There wtiere we live in heaven's light. Where pal ns o peace do ever bloom. Be of good cheer, we think of you; We s i ite o:i you who’re dear to us. Oh, only dry those bi: ter tears. YVe’re sleeping now in sweet repose.” Mrs. Zis-r and Children. MEETINGS. UNIFORM HANK ti. OF P. " He IDqi’ARTEHS ) First Regiment oe Ga, . U. R.
