On Sunday, Jan. 5, the Morn Ino News will begin the publication of anew serial story, entitled, “The Great Mill Street Mys tery,” by Miss Adeline Sergeant, author of “Jacobi’s AVife,” one of the most successful of recent stories. “The Great Mill Street Mystery” is a powerful story, and will run six months. It has been secured at very considerable expense, and will appear in the Daily aad Weekly Morning News. It can be safely said that it is one of the best stories that have been published by the newspapers for a long time, and wo feel certain that it will be greatly enjoyed by the readers of the Morning News. Those who want to read it should subscribe at once so that they will be certain to get the numbers containing the first installment of this great story. The story alone i= well ■worth the subscription price of the Weekly Morning News. Nearly every weok anew candidate emters the race for United States senator of Ohio, but Mr. Brice’s chances of election continue to be good. The fight which is being made against Mr. Brice by some northern newspapers is probably doing him more good than harm. He is not receiving fair treatment at their hands. The bill to allow a clerk for each con— gres-man cannot be kept down long at a time. It may lie defeated, or pigeon-holed, but it will bob up again. The argument has been recently advanced in Its favor that the congressmen need someone to look After ccngressional matters while they are trying to get offices for constituents. This country is evidently very much in need of a strict enforcement of the civil service laws. The New York I'ress prints a picture ■which it calls “Solving the Race Problem. ” The soene is in the south, and a white man is represented as sitting upon a colorod citi zen, who lies sprawling upon the ground. The white man has a gun in his grasp, and is evidently threatening to use it upon the negro if he doesn’t keep quiet. The day for pictures like that has passed. The people have found out that they are base libels upon the southern people. The annual report of the postmaster at New York shows that during the last year the business of that office was considerably Increased. Tbe grand total of pieces handled was 567,340,945, an increase over the pre vious year of 49,779,648 pieces. The number of letters received and forwarded was 234,- 726,667, and of postal cards 39,130,678. The registered mail was increased by 354,999 pieces, and there was an increase of 32,945 in the number of money orders. Iceman Turner, who was recently elected to congress from New York, isn’t very hopeful that New York will get the world’s tair. He says that he finds it difficult to convince congressmen that that city really wants It. This is not very surprisin g. New York has shown a remarkable degree of in difference as to the location of the fair, as compared with Chicago. Her indifference has surprised her friemls and delighted her enemies, but it is to be hoped that it will vanish before the time for the decisive bat tle arrives. Mr. Cleveland delivered an address before tbe students of Cornell university a few days ago, and ho was presented as “the one man in all the nation who needs no introduc tion. ’ This was quite appropriate, and it contradicts the statements of some re publican organs that Mr. Cleveland has teu forgotten by the public. No doubt these organs wish that the public would orgel him; but it lean encouraging fact | that such men are not allowed to pass out * I,uhlic mind ’ Cleveland is a name that will be heard more and more as the next presidential election approaches. Death of W. Grady. Georgia mourns for one of her mast dis tinguished sons. HfcUrv W. Grady, who, a week ago last Thursday, held entranced, and at times movsd to enthusiastic ap plause, by his eloquence, an audience com posed of Boston’s prominent citizens, and whose name on the following day was on the lips of millions of people, is cold in death in his Atlanta borne. He died be fore he had reached the meridian of life or the zenith of his fame. His mind was steadily broadening, and he was constantly giving evidence Cf the possession of still greater ability than he had yet displayed. In his Boston speech he bandied the race question in a way that showed that he was not a mere rhetori cian, but a j genuine orator, who couid direct the minds of mn as well as touch their hearts and dazzle their imagi nations. Had he lived, he would have won a name that would have had a permanent place in the history of his country. As it is, he will be remembered as a brilliant young man whom death claimed before he had time to show that he was fully capable of meeting the expectations which were en tertained with regard to him. Mr. Grady was full of resources and a tireless worker. He entered the profession of journalism very early in life, and such was the energy and intensity with which be devoted himself to it, that even if he had not possessed extraordinary taleuts, he could hardly have failed to succeei; but, having a special fitness for his work aud ability of a very high order, it was not sfango that he quickly made a reputation that was not confined by the lines of his state. Mr.Grady was never satisfied with what he had accomplished. He felt that he was ca pable of still better things, and ho strove constantly to reach a higher mark of excel lence. No sooner was he done with one un dertaking than his busy brain was engaged with auother; and it can be said of him that his aims were not selfish ones. No doubt be had the ambitions which every man of marked ability has, but the good of others entered largely into bis thoughts aud plans. Atlanta owes to his memory a debt she can never repay. During all the timo he was a resident within her limits he kept her interests steadily in view. He con tributed to her prosperity in a hundred ways, and when her people were lukewarm in enterprises which ho or others suggested, he pointed out to them their duty, and urged them to perform it so eloquently and strongly that they fell into line and won succees when many thought success was impossible. Mr. Grady was not apparently anxious to accumulate wealth. Money did not re main with him long. His purse was always open to his friends, and those who had claims never had to ask him twice for assistance when he was able to render it. Doubtless there are hundreds in Atlanta who are able to speak from personal knowl edge of bis free-handed liberality. Mr. Grady never held public office. Had he lived, however, it is probable that he would have entered the political arena. He was gradually being drawn in that direc tion, and during the last two or three years his name was frequently men tioned in connection with the offices of senator aud governor. His triumphs wore won as a journalist and an orator. In the latter character he first achieved a national repetition at the dinner of the New England Society in 18S6. Georgians loved Mr. Grady and were proud of him. The death of very few other men could have so filled their hearts with sorrow. Europe’s Epidemic. The infiuetiza has a grip upon about 500,- 000 people in Europe, and it is a grip that isn’t laughed at any more. When the disease first made its appearance in Paris it was the subject of innumerable jokes, but the joking season has passed. It is regarded now seriously, aud many thousands of people are trying to get away from it by going to the country. It attacks the people in the country, however, as well as thoßo in the city, and there is no use, therefore, in trying to run an ay from it. Kings are Its victims as well as the peasants. It enters the palace as easily as the hovel. In parts of Austria it is dealt with as other infec tious diseases, but it cannot bo barred out by quarantine restrictions. Those who have tried to avoid it by remaining indoors and keeping their doors and windows closed have fared no better than those who have gono freely abroad at all hours of tbe day and night. It is in the air, and there fore no effective precaution can bo taken against it. The symptoms of it nro different in dif ferent countries. In the warmer climates it is accompanied by chills, bone aches, and headache, and in the colder climates its victims are afflicted with cerebral disturbances, nausea, sore throat, diarrhea, muscular weakness and cardiac pain. Nobody can speak with certainty about the cause of the disease. It has been said that the remarkably warm winter has nourished germs that are killed by cold, but this can hardly boa satisfactory expla nation, because the disease has made its appearance in localities in which there has been already a great deal of cold weather this winter. A few days ago it was said that tho disease had made its appearance in New York city, but it is now thought that those in that city who were believed to be af flicted with it were only suffering from bad colds. There was some talk about its being in this city, but there is no good reason to think that it has readied here. For several weeks a good many people havo been suffering from colds, but they haven’t the symptoms which the victims of it in Europe have. In Europe tho remedies are aatipyrine aud quiuiue, but the disease seems to run its course whether it is treated with medicines or let alone. Happily, it causes death very rarely, aud only in cases in which there is little power of resistance. Avery silly rumor was circulated in New York the other day concerning Mr. Cleve land. It was that he had decided to give up his residence in that city because he is so greatly annoyed by appeals ior public charities and by begging lettors for individ ual help. Half a dozen reporters were soon at his home, and ho told them that he know nothing about the rumor. It would have been safe for them to deny it without consulting him. Nobody has ever accused him of being devoid of common sense. Cedartown, Ga., is considerably excited over the exodus from that town of a good many colored people. The emigrants went to Arkansas, and the ncheme to get them to go Was so quietly worked that it was hardly known before they left. THE MORNING NEWS: TUESDAY, DECEMBER 24; 1889. Beform the Jury Fystetn. The rough handling which Mr. Culver, one of the jurors in the Cronin case, is re ceiving is calling attention to that feature of the jury system which requires that all twelve members of a jury shall agree before a verdict can ba rendered. The opinions that are finding expression through tbe newspapers with regard to it,‘are that the law should be so changed that a verdict could be rendered by either a majority or three-fourths of the members of a jury. It is now in the power of one juror to save a criminal from merited punishment, and he may do this because be is corrupt, or be cause, from prejudice or ignoranoe, be can not try a case in accordance -with the law and the facts. Juror Culver is not an ignorant man, but there are grave doubts whether he is in his right mind. He appears to have gone into the jury box with a determination to acquit the accused parties if possible. The evidence which was presented by tbe state, and which was sufficient to convince the other eleven members of the jury that the defend ants were guilty, does not appear to have been regarded by hi m as worthy of belief. Before becoming a juror in fcpe Cronin case there does not appear to have been a doubt about his integrity, but sinco tbe trial he has received many threatening letters ac cusing him of being corrupt. The Chicago newspapers have not hesitated to question his honesty, and he has already brought suits for damages against several of them. Mr. Culver is doubtless an honest man, and he went into the jury box, in all prob ability, with a determination to do his duty conscientiously and fearlessly. That he is narrow-minded and pig-headed Is pretty certain. He is what is called a religious crank, and believes that he is better able than his follow men to see the path of duty. He doubtless felt a certain sort of pride in differing with all the other members of tho jury, and would have rejoiced if he had suc ceeded in inducing them to agree with him and to render a verdict of acquittal. If it should ever appear that the con victed men are innocent, of which there is scarcely a possibility, many of those who are now declaring that Juror Culver ought to be hanged would be the first to praise him for his firmness and for his ability to ap preciate the true value of evidence, although he would not be entitled to credit for any such qualities. The lesson to be drawn from the Cronin case is that the requirement that all the jurors shall agree before a verdict can be rendered is one that is calculated to defeat the ends of justice. A majority of tho su preme court of the United States and of the supreme courts of the different states decides the most weighty matters, and there is no reason why a majority or three fourths of a jury should not render a ver dict, even m cases in which human life is at stake. The jury system of Illinois is receiving a* pretty thorough overhauling. It is said that although the court told the sheriff, time aud time again, that the jurors in the Cronin case should not be permitted to havo any communication outside of the court room with any person except tho officers who had charge of them, several of the jurors field conversations about the case with persons in no way connected with tho trial, and were warned that the public would be satisfied with no other verdict tbau that of guilty. It is evident that the sheriff did not attend to his duty very strictly. Tho Philadelphia Inquirer remarks that the President's first veto has not yot appeared, and that there are no indi cations that he is going to be much of a veto President. So much the worse for him. A discriminating and capable President could use the veto power to the public advantage, but of course if President Harrison is unable to distinguish between good and bad bills, the public will have to get along tho best way it can. If, for instance, congress should pass an obnoxious pension bill, such as Mr. Cleveland vetoed, the President should not hesitate to send it back with his disap proval. But lie wouldn’t do anything of the kind, notwithstanding even Boss Quay has ss id that men who did the actual fight ing, and who have some pride iu their rec ords as soldiers, don’t want to be placed in the position of paupers. Tbe McGinty joke is responsible for the death of John Rusk, of .West Chester, N. Y. The other day Rusk and some of his com panions were standing on the street, when Thomas Hart, an ex-policeman, came along. The young men thought they would have a little fun out of Hart, and one of them asked him if he had arrested “that fellow.” “What fellow,” inquired the ex-policeman, and someone answered, “Why, McGinty,” and then tho young men began to gibe him. Mr. Hart didn’t know how to take a joke. He whacked out his revolver and fired into the crowd. The bullet struck young Rusk, and he died some hours afterward. A war rant was issued for Hart’s arrest, but be had gone to parts unknown. A copyright suit has been brought in tho federal court at Indianapolis by the widow of Stephen C. Foster against Kinsley & Pauley, music publishers, igffayette, Ind. Mr. Foster composed the well-known song, “Down on the Suwannee River,” and it is alleged in the petition that the defendants publish and sell it under the title of “Old Folks at Home,” giving Mrs. Carrie A. Stone Banter the credit for its composition. It is also set forth that Mr. Foster had the song copyrighted in 1851, and the copy right renewed in 1879, aud that the com plainant’s revenuo from tho sale has been materially decreased since the pirated edi tion appeared. A Washington correspondent estimates the individual wealth of the notoriously rich members of the Senate as follows: Barbour 91,000,000, Brown 92,500,000, Cam eron $3,000,000, Farwell $3,000,000, Hale $1,000,000, Hearst $10,000,000, Jones (Nev.) $2,000,000, McMillan $10,000,000, Payne $5,000,000, Plumb $1,000,U)0, Sawyer $3,- 000,000, Sherman $3,000,000, Squire sl,. 000,000, Stanford $30,000,000, Stewart sl.- 000,000, Stockbridge $1,000,000, Washburn $1,000,000. No doubt the estimate is too high in some instances, but it is probable that there are seventeen millionaires in the Senate. The Toledo, 0., bank official who was sentenced to five years in the penitentiary for stealing $75,000 of the bank’s money congratulates himself, no doubt, that he hit upon an easy way of making n fortune. It is not probable that he will fare very badly in prison, and his wife has assured him that she will ba waiting for him when he comes borne. In the meantime, under his direction, she will invest tho $75,000 so that fie won’t be tempted to steal any more. CURRENT COMMENT. No Joke. From the Boston Herald (Ind.), The observation that th* administration of President Hayes was brilliantly successful, compared witn that of Pre-odea* liarri-on up to date, is said to be one >f tbe current jokes among some of the republicans in Washington. We fail to see where the joke comes in. It is sober truth. Republican Law. From the St. IjOuit Republic (Dem.). Tbe republicans in Montana, finding a con stitutional provision i n the way of their plan of organizing the State Senate, disposed of tbe constitution hy the chair s ruling that it did not apply until after tbe organ.zation was effected. This is good republican logic. It suspends the law against burglary uatii after the burglary is committed and the burglar has made off with hia plunder. /• Portugrai and John Bull. From Sen York I Vorld (Dem.). There issomething ludicroua about the style in which poor little Portugal is strutting up to big, burly John Bull. The last time the English visited Portugal as friends, under Wellington, they nearly ruined the country. Wbat would they do if they went there is enemies? Legitimate Growth. From the Louisville Conner-Journal (Deni.). More railroads have been built in the south this year than iu any other part of the union. Even in the great west, where construction is cheaper, the activity has not equaled that of tbe south. Lines were built in the vest far beyond the needs of the population, but in the south they were obviously too few for th - demand, and present enterprises are the legitimate outcome of neoessity. bright bits.

A cook who had burned up a piece of veal weighing four pounds threw it away, and after ward explained to her mistress that the cat had eaten the meat. “Very w -11,” said the lady, “we will see that directly.'’ So saying, she took the cat and put it on the scales, and found that it weighed ex act Jy four pounds. “There, Frederic Ice,” she said, “are the four pounds of meat—but where is the cat?”— Kolner l'arjeblalt. Thirst for Knowledge.— City Belle—l hope your stay in our city will not be short, Mr. De fecience. Mr. De Science (member of the American Ornithologists’ Union)—Thank you, but my sojourn must be brief.

On one occasion the regiment was about to start on a _ long march through Texas, ana orders were issued that baggage should be re duced to the minimum. Lieut, B had just received from bis father a small box of bonks, 12 by 34 inches in measurement, and timidly asked the colonel if he might not take it along. “Good gad! No. sir! Couldn't hear of such a thing, sir.” “I’m very sorry, colonel! It will be very dull out there without any reading. My father sent me a barrel of whiskv, too, but of course I couldn’t take that.” “Good gad! Sir! Of course you can, sir! Anything in reason, sir!”— Time. PERSONAL. Mr. Cornelius Vanderbilt, who often visits Concord in his private car to meet his son, who is b -ing educated at the noted St. Paul’s School —two and one-half miles from the city—is a welcome guest at the hotels and to the hack drivers. To tho latter he hands a $5 note for passage from the city to the school, refusing any return change, the regular fare being $2. Mr. William Morris is undoubtedly one or the most remarkable men in England,' and one of the busiest in London. He is socialist, scient tist, poet, essayist, antiquarian, lecturer, de signer. workman, editor of The Commonweal, manufacturer, with one factory out of London and more than one iu it, merchant, with a shop on Oxford street and also on Union Square, New York. Queen Victoria and the Princess of Wales never carry inouoy about with them, and they are frequently subjected to awkward, and some times amusi Jg.contretemps in consequence. On one occasion last summer the Princess of Wales, when seeking admission to a pubiie entertain ment in London, found hei-self in the predica ment of not possessing the two shillings re quired for the payment of the entrance fee. Lawyer Forrest of Chicago, who has be come famous through his work for the defense in the Cronin trial, is a Baltimorean. His mother's name is Laughlin, the son having taken the name of Forrest when a young man. Mrs. Laughlin is now supported in comfort by Forrest, but was formerly employed to attend to household duties by Gen. John S. Berry. While at Gen. Berry’s country home, about fifteen years ago, her son, who was then a stu dent in a northern college, visited her, and per sons who came in contact with him described him then as very bright and quick-witted. For rest was enabled to get an education through the aid of a wealthy friend who took an interest in him. James Russell Lowell played a clever trick upon James T. Fields when the latter was editor of the Atlantic Monthly. Wishing to ascer tain whether articles were accepted on their merits or on the reputation of the writer, he sent Mr. Fields an article on “American Humor,” signiug it “W. Perry Paine.” Hear ing nothing from it, he called upon Mr. Fields, and turning the conversation to the subject of American humor, the editor produced Mr. Low ell's own article, as an example of the stuff that was being constantly received, and pronounced it “an absurd farrago of stuff.” When Mr. Lowell laughingly proclaimed himself the author of the article, the editor made a very lame attempt to crawl out of his embarrass ment. Congressman William Martin of Texas, who was the innocent butt of a great deal of fun and practical joking at the last congress, is perhaps the heaviest smoker in the official life of the capital. He has been described and illus trated extensively, but all the pen and pencil pictures of him lack one all-important feature, Die never-failing cigar. The fragrant weed is his great comfort and consolation, to which ho resorts almost constantly in his waking hours. He is not particular as to brand, quality, style, or price. There is a cigar stand iu the corridor of the House, which he patronizes unremit tingly. When he steps up to the counter he says to the clerk, briefly, “Cigars.” If the clerk lays down on the case a handful, Maj. Martin counts them, lights one, puts the others in his vest pocket, and asks, 'How much?” The amount is stated and paid. If only one cigar is laid on the #ise, he takes it just the same, and says likewise, simply. “How much:”’ Tbe clerks, as may be expected, keep him well supplied. Christmas Carol. From the Youth's Companion. The earth has grown old with its burden of care. But at Christmas it always is young. The heart of the jewel burns lustrous and fair. And its soul full of music breaks forth on the air When the song of the angels is sung. It is coming, Old Earth, it is coming to-night! On the snowflakes which cover thy sod The feet of the Christ-ehild fall gentle and white, And the voice of the Christ-child tells out with delight That man Kind are the children of God. On the sad and the lonely, the. wretched and poor. That voice of the Christ-child shall fall; And to every blind wanderer open the door Of a hope that he dared not to dream of before. With a sunshine of welcome for all. The feet of the humblest may walk in the field Where the feet of the holiest have trod. This, this is the maryel to mortals revealed When the silvery trumpets of Christmas have pealed. That mankind are the children of God. 1889. Phillips Brooks.

Our suggestions as to useful things being best adapted for Holiday Gifts must have been unanimously adopted by the purchas ing public, judging from our business last week. We hai about all we could manage, but, to use an expression not very elegant, but certainly expressive, “we got there,” and HOGAN’S establishment has been the most popular place in the city. But few days are left for Xmas pur chases, and it is a waste of time to attempt to look round. The sensible thing is to come right to our place and let the pur chasing be done here. We have what you want, and at a price less than you can find it in the city. We reproduce last week’s list as a sort of reminder of what wo have, but the best plan is to come straight to the corner of Barnard and Broughton streets.

Suppose you come and select your Xmas Gift from our unapproachable stock of Ladies' and Misses’ Wraps.
