ATLANTA'S DEPOT SCHEME.

Atlanta. May 15.—’There was another
coming together of the city father*
and the representatives of the railroads
to-day. But still the new depot seems ns
far away as at the most remote period of
its fancied existence. Ten days ago the
councilmen and the representatives of the
railroads met for a few moments, then j
tin Council adjourned, without giving the I
railroad men lime 10 say a tiling, even if
they had wanted.
Tins action caused something of a sen
sation, and it was alleged that the coun
eilmen had treated the railroads discourte
ously, and, therefore, the city’s chances
for getting ihe new depot were much
lessened. Mayor Woodward and his ad
visers finally became convinced that they
had acted hastily. Several days ago the
Mayor wrote a letter to the representa
tives of Ihe roads inviting them to appear
before Council this afternoon and present
their plans, if they had any.
When Council met this afternoon Messrs.
J. Carroll Payne, represented the lessees
of the Western and Atlantic road, and J.
B, S. Thompson, representing the South
ern, were on hand. Mr. Payne made a
nice little talk, telling what the roads
thought about doing: that is, to pm a sub
way under the roads at Pryor street, and
the city to viaduct at Whitehall. But he
did not make any regular proposition.
1 . ore, th meeting ended, like all the
Others that h ive taki n place on the de
pot subject, In a fiasco.
Th< city fathers gave the railroad men
to understand that they wanted an open
and shut proposition, and when they get
that they will be ready to talk business.
This Is understood lo put the onus on the
railroads.
Tlie Wislwall-DeGlve Case.
The case of Mrs. Wist wall against Man
ager De Give of the Grand Opera house
for damages on account of her husband's
death in falling down Mr. De Give's stair
way, continues to attract u good deal of
attention on account of its various fea
tures of peculiar interest.
Anew element of attraction was added
to the case to-day by tlie arrival upon the
scene of Mrs. Wistwall, the plaintiff. The
lady is a resident of Boston, and d'id not
Intend to appear in person in the case
until an attack was made by the defense
upon tire character of her deceased hus
band. Then she decided that it was time
to come down to Georgia to defend his
memory in the courts. The defense, it
will be recollected, takes the position that
Mr. Wist wall was a very gay old gentle
man. though he has got a handsome young
looking wife. It was set up that he went
out to see the town, spending a whole roll
of money with the girls ahout town, and
finally falling down Mr. De Give's stair
way in a fit of intoxication, while en
deavoring to make his unsteady way back
to the Aragon House, where he was stop
ping.
Mrs. Wistwall Is accompanied to Atlan
ta by Mr. W. H. Wellington, a Boston
capitalist, it is understood that both will
go upon the stand in rebuttal of the testi
mony reflecting upon the character of the
deceased.
in the trial to-day Mr. De Give had a
large number of his friends to testify that
there was little likelihood of a sober man
mistaking the opening down which Wist
wal. fell of the entrance to his drug store.
He also had some of his employes to
testify that the stairway smelt of whisky
when Wistwall was found there. There
is a saloon on one side of this stairway,
but the witnesses were positive that the
whisky they smelt was what Wistwall had
been drinking and not the odor from the
saloon. It seems that the saloons do not
sell the same sort of liquor that is deal out
to a gay old gent when he goes "down
the line.” The latter not only causes Its
partakers to fall down stairs, and then
wobble homeward, but an up-to-date
young sport can tell the difference by the
smell ten feet off.
Methodist Hook Concern Annin.
The Methodist ministers of Atlanta took
up the action of the bishops recently in
disposing of the controversy over the
money secured from Congress through
the efforts of Maj. E. B. Stahlman. A
heated discussion ensued over it, and
finally resolutions condemning the action
of Ihe bishops and appointing a commit
tee to go before the conference and ask
that an extra general conference of the
church be called to go entirely over the
matter again. Some of the ministers re
ferred to the action of the bishops as
“hushing up" the matter and causing
great dissatisfaction among the church
by the manner in which they had seen fit
to dispose of the matter. Dr. Dovejoy of
Atlanta was given the npproval of the
ministers for his course in resigning from
the book commission in consequence of
the controversy over the money.
Death of Dr. H. Si. Sledd.
Dr. H. N. Sledd, pastor of the Main
Street Methodist Church of Richmond,
Na., died at the Grady hospital in this city
this morning, ofter an illness of but a few
days. Dr. Sledd was on his way
home from the htshoiai’ meeting at Nash
ville, and stopped over in Atlanta oil Fri
day, intending to go on to Richmond in
time to fill his pulpit yesterday, lie was
taken suddenly i]l, however, and went to
tlie hospital, thinking that he would be
soon able to leave. Typhoid fever devel
op-d rapidly, and in a short lime the dis
tinguished minister had succumbed to it
Dr. Sledd's son, Prof. Sledd, of the Uni
vers.iy of Virginia, accompanied by his
wife, who was formerly Miss Candler
daughter of Bishop Candler, arrived this
morning, and will accompany the remains
back to Richmond.
A itcwfinl Offered.
° av Candler to-day offered a reward of
$-'i tor ihe arrest and delivery to the
sheriff of Fulton county of the murderer
or murderers of Robert F. Davis, who was
assassinated at his home In DeKalb coun
ty last Friday night. The proclamation
dor s not name the suspected negro, but in
consequence of the excited state of public
feeling in DeKalb county the reward is
in tde payable upon delivery of the guilty
county. Once here there will be little
danger of a mob getting him into their
bands.
Meeting of Hill Buster*.
Bill posters from all the important cities
of the* South met here to-day and organ
ized an association lor mutual benefit and
protection m their business. The meetings
took pface at tlie Kimball House. ,i. t>.
I lummc-r of Asheville, was made presi

Charles Barnard. A constitution and in
laws were adopted, regulating the objec's

Associated Bill Posters’ Association of the

“ Welcome, Evil, If
‘Thou Comest Alone. ”
Oiie evil that cannot come
alone is impure blood. If
this is allowed, it is at
tended by kindred ailments
galore. This condition means
that every vein and artery of
the body, instead of carry
ing to the organs a health
giving flow of life, is laden
with a slow and impure
fluid that is harming instead
of healing.
It is unfortunate when there is “had
blood” between people. It is worse
when it is inside of you. Hood’s Sar
saparilla will not make enemies friends,
but it will make “bad blood” good
blood, and blood should be of the best
quality. Hood’s Merer disappoints.
Blcod Poisoning -“When I enlisted in
Montana for the C ” war I began taking
Hood’s Sarsaparilla nd got several com
rades to do so. It seemed to make UK
proof against heat and fatigue at Key West
and Tampa, while others gave out, also in
Cuba. I was wounded at San Juan with a
brass jacket bullet, but got no treatment
until I arrived at Fort McPherson, Ga.
The surgeon said if it had not been for my
good rich blood that the brass shell would
have poisoned me sure and i would havfi
lost my arm.” George P. Cooper, Cos. 0,
25th F. S'. Inf., Washington Barracks, D. C.
Scrofula “ For months I went to hos
pital for treatment of scrofulous ulcer
without results. They said it was the
worst they ever treated. I tried Hood’s
Sarsaparilla. Twelve bottles entirely cured
me.” Cyrus G. Upham, Needham. Mass.
Leg Sores - “Sores on nty wife's limb
were so bad she could not walk. Phy
sicians’ aid of no value and she used
crutches. After taking Hood's Sarsapa
rilla, she laid them aside and walked freely."
Fred A. Hoyt.e, Reynolds Bridge, Conn.'
Balt Rheum “My mother was seri
ously afflicted with salt rheum and painful
running sores. No medicine helped hei
until Hood’s Sarsaparilla was used, which
made her entirely well.” Esse E. Mapl

Stoops of Chattanooga was elected perma

Savannah, vice president.
The meeting to-day was a pleasant and
successful one. The bill posters thoujgi al
ways "sticking up” for other people, are
not all "stuck up” themselves, and they
consequently had a good time.
Suit Against the Central.
B. F. McWhorter of Jonesboro, through
Atlanta attorneys, filed suit against the
Central Railroad in the Clayton Superior
Court to-day for $25,000 damages. He was
a conductor on one of the Central's su
burban trains running out of Atlanta, and
was hurt while arranging an air-brake, he
alleges, through the negligence of the
company. One of his arms had to be am
putated.
Meeting of Commissioner*.
The county school commissioners and
members of the* county boards of edu

of Representatives, and will be in session
for three days, during which time many
of the most noted and distinguished edu

and discuss Important papers. The con
vention will be called to order by the
president, Hon. G. R. Glenn, state school
commissioner, the presiding officer of the
convention. An address of welcome will

From all parts of the state the delegates
began arriving this afternoon and to

Case In Tutted State* Court at Jack

Jacksonville, Fla., May 15.—The cases of
the United States against the steamei
Dauntless, for alleged filibustering which
were begun against the vessel nearly
three years ago, were dismissed in the
United Slates court to-day, on motion of
the government.
This was done on an agreement that the
claims of W. A. Bisbee, owner of the
Daumless, against C. R. Bisbee, formerly
collector of customs in this city, and
against W. F. Kilgore, commander of the
revenue cutter Boutwefl, for detaining the
Dauntless on various occasions, should
ills . lie dismissed, which was done.
The boat has been for more than two
years in Ihe custody of the United States,
carrying at all times a United Stales dep

and for tlie first time In twenty-six months
the boat will be absolutely free to come
and go in legitimate business.

DON’T .MOVE AGAIN. “THREE
MOVES ARE AS BAD
AS A FIRE.”
My friends (I. e. partler who have been
looking at lots on Ninth street) want to
know when wifi there be a sale of Ninth
street lots. They mean at auction. Some
people like to attend auctions. I have a
taste that way myself. I am always hap
py on such occasions. Now the owners of
those Ninth street lota would like to seil
as many of them as possible at “private
sale.” You know It is cheaper to sell at
private sale than at auction. An auction
means big advertising bills, big posters,
and a brass band. It is expensive. The
auctioneer's sweet voice itself is costly. It
is worth $5 a tune for the auctioneer for
a S2OO lot! Of course somebody has to
pay for ali these adjuncts to an auction. Il
is simply to save you money, my friends,
that I am writing ihese epistles. If I sell
at auction every one who buys a lot pays
for his share of the music, advertising
and auctioneer. It don't look that way, but
in the immutable course of events it must
be that way.
But I am now making up a list of those
who want an auction, a real old time en
joyable auction, where there will be lots
of smart things said. As soon as Ihe list
is completed I shall study over the situa
tion and see what can be done. In the
meanwhile "cross the Rubicon” and pick
out the lot on Ninth street that you want.
Take yottr wife with you, for as a rule it
is her little economies and savings which
help to buy the lot and build the home. If
you make up your mind, I mean you and
your wife, to get a place where you can
have not only home comforts, but have a
few fruit trees and raise chickens, maybe
keep a cow, 1 know you can pay for it for
less than you now pay your landlord for
rent and spend In cigars and other luxu
ries and summer excursions, and then have
something lo put aside. I know what I
am talking about, because there are hun
dreds of people in this town who have done
and are now doing 10-day what I have out
lined, and I am glad to say that incident
ally I am the maker of the good for
tunes. There are only three things neces
sary in order to secure a home, namely:
a building lot. industry and economy.
Call and see me and bring yottr wife. She
is doubtless tiled of moving 4bout, because
just as she gets the house in order and her
little garden planted, and become acquain
ted with the neighbors, she has to "pul!
up stakes” and move. Many a poor wo
man's life !s worn out by moving. Give
your wife a home and she will be a hap
pier woman. Hoping to see you at an
early day, I am, encouragingly yours,
