Historic CaArtoft frelUi'ned.
AJftetr A absence from the city
of t?e!0Sdbua, In which It was made,
’The Ladles' Defender," a historic can
non which the federal authorities
agreed recently to restore to Colum

The cannon was cast In Columbus
during the civil war, the metal being
contributions from citizens of Cktlmn-
bus. The gun was presented 10 the

during the Wal. It was captured by
the fedUfals, and for many years was
kept at an arsenal In a northern city.
For the past few years It ha* bt-on

historic old cannon was discovered by

BY REV. OR. W. R. HUNTINGTON;
Gas and Electrla Companies Merge.
Joint ownership of the Atlanta Gas
Light Company and tho Georgia Rail
way and Electric Company and the In
fusion of new capital and new influ
ences Into the Georgia Railway and
Electric Company are the direct re
sults of a transaction which Was coil-
summated and announced A tUy br two
ago.
The Georgia Railway and Electric
Company has simply exchanged part
of Its stock for that of the Atlanta Ga3
Light Company. An equal amount of
the preferred and common stock of
the latter company Is retired and to Its
holders will be Issued stock of tho
Georgia Railway and Electric Com
pany.
While thero has been no cntisollda-
tlon—one reason being that tho char
ter of the Georgia Railway and Elec
tric Company does not permit It to do
a gas lighting business—It Is a
fact that the same interests which
will control the street railway and
electric lighting company will control
tho gast lighting business of Atlanta.

Trouble Overtakes Miss Campbell.
bliss Dora Campbell, aged 2G years,
and up to early In- May last postmis
tress at Maysvllle, when slio resigned,
was arrested In Baltimore a few days
ago at tho reqne3t of the federal au
thorities upon a warrant charging her
with the alleged embezzlement of pos
tal funds to the extent of several hun
dred dollars.
When Jllss Campbell reached Balti
more on May 23 last, says a dispatch
from that city, she engaged board at
the Maternity hospital, registering un
der the name of Dorothy Herndon.
She had in her possession considera
ble money, Jewelry anil deeds of prop
erty. She became dlssatifiod with tho
idea of remaining at the hospital until
October, and prepared to go to Swans-
town, Va., In company with a young
girl, who was also a patient at the hos-
pital. It was while she was attempt
ing to board the train that she was
placed under arrest.
Miss Campbell denies that she em
bezzled any of the postal funds amj
expressed a willingness to return to
Georgia. She claims to have been rob
bed of some money in February, but
no postal money.
Miss Campbell is a daughter of Geo.
Campbell, a confederate veteran, and
quite pretty and,attractive. The fam
ily removed to Maysvllle from Lula.
She tnught school near that place.
Colonel Mills Arrives.
Colonel Stephen C. Mills, of the In
spector general's department In the
United States army, arrived in Atlanta
Sunday for the purpose of Inspecting
the Georgia state troops while in en
campment. The Inspection by sepa-
rate commands by Major French, of
tho quartermaster general s depart
ment, has already been accomplished
and the results will probably be
given out from the war depurt-
nel MIIIb will Inspect the entire per
sonnel and performances of tbe troops
and report upon their fitness for ac
tive duty, or whatever may he lacking
to make them so.
Co'onel Mills will go flrst to the Grif
fin encampment of the Second and
Fourth Georgia regiments and thence
to the other encampments at Rome,
Augusta, Macon and Savannah.
On his visit to Georgia the colonel
will have opportunity to meet many
old friends of the line and many wtio
knew him In the active emergency
days of the Spanish-Amerlcan can
palgn.
The report which Colonel Mills may
make of his Inspection of the Georgia
troops is likely to largely influence
their future In the consideration of ‘he
war department under the terms of the
new militia art. If his report shows
that our soldier boys are lining the
best possible with tlielr resources It i!
more than probable that the request;
for equipment and encampment aid
hereafter lo bo made will be readily
granted.

AiW R. Huntington, rector of Grac$
Ohurch, preached recently a sermon, to a
fashionable school for girls- which ha*
ittracted much attention, ana-by tftylfftfc
t is here given, {Elth wdi chosen From
isnjah Xlvli: i: •Thou saidst, l shall be

first instance, addrrced to a woman, but
they were not. Tbe aspirant after an
everlasting ladyship wan no womap.a.t alJi
oat a city—an ancient city, $ city opulent,
md Babylon the great.
Emboldened like ancient Rome by its
military conquests, intoxicated like medi*
•val Venice by its commercial prosperity,

sesion of resources which seemed measure*

A mighty bridge which crossed and A tun
nel which uijderran the river Euphrates
were nnjBttg its engineering triumphs. The
fmmit of the walls, lofty and broad al
most beyond belief, was between fifty and
sixty miles.
But there was n man in Jerusalem whom
none of these things greatly moved in the
sense of stupefying or alarming him. The
man’s name was Isaiah and his father's
name was Ainoz. When people came to
with their panic talk about the big'
i of Babylon and the litt,leries*i «f uerU* :
littleness _ _
pfenenSibnS bii the
CflnttArV; ho Apbkfc tip and harangued
Babylon with much plainness of speech.
"Sit thou silent." lie cried,‘"and get thee
into darkness, O daughter of the Chal
deans, for thou shalt no more be called
the lady of kingdom*. Thou saidst 1
shall he a lady forever—therefore hear
thou, thou that art given to pleasures,
that dwellest carelessly—these two things
shall cotne to thee in a moment, in one
day, the loss of children nnd widowhood.
They shall come upon thee in their perfec*
tion for the multitude of thy sorceries
and for the great Abundance of thiue en
chantments.'*
Thus sternlv. almd* 1 :.fiercely; Isaiah; son
ot AinO*. Addresses mighty Babylon. He
speaks of her. as to a woman of rank whose
pride And indocility arb presently to prove
her overthrow’ and tb transform her pleas
ant palaces into ruinous heaps. She leans
upon her advantage of high station all un
aware that the staff is too brittle for the
weight. Forgetful of the duties which con
dition privilege, she fancies that old time
prerogative nnd the accumulated prestige
of many generations will be her safety.
God’s prophet determines to shake her
out of this illusion, to compel her to open
her eyes to the hard fact and he docs it,
as we have seen.
With the text thus well in baud, we
proceed. Under what conditions is it pos
sible, either for a city or for a woman, to
become, in very deed and truth, a lady
forever?
This is the question to which J t shall ask
you to bend vour thought to-night, and
•whether we have respect to the week
which ended yesterday or to the week
which has been entered upon, to-day I
cannot hat account the topic a timely
with great to name the commencement
week of a scnool for girls in the same
breath with the cqpmicmorutive week of
city which has lived through the fourth
F >art of a thousand years, nut, perhaps
icforo we are done, my boldness
taring thus to couple the two may be for
given me.
Of tlic sorts of ladyship of which I have
made mention, that to which communities
and that to which individuals may attain,
we will look at civic ludyship fivsj. With
civic ladyship wc associate those qualities
which win for cities a*i admiring love.
Physical strength, riche*, commercial en
terprise will give a city lordship. That is
one tiling; but ladyship is quite another.
For the compelling of respect lordship
mnv suffice a city, for the winning of at-
fection something of la. ship is essental.
How about the Lady of the Hudson? Has
she any better ground for counting upon
the perpetuity of her ladyship than had
the Lady of the Euphrates? Can we trust
her any more implicitly than Isaiah trust
ed Babylon when she says confidently "1

measure of importance
sign to the treasures of (lie market as
compared with the treasures of the soul.
I am using the word, "soul" in a large
and comprehensive sense. Religion and
religious interests are of course foremost
in my thought, since, without a due re
gard to these no city can permanently
live; but when I speak of the treasures of
the sou! as essential to the city that would
adventure ladyship 1 have in mind all of
those precious things that go to make up
the idealistic as contrasted with the ma
terialistic aide of human life—Righteous
ness?’ Yes. Worship? Yes; but beside
these, poetry, letters nnd whatever else
there may be that ministers beauty to the
eye of harmony and melody to the car.
These last are whut make the treasures of
the soul. These, mingled in due pronor
and gold and negotiable securities of them-
■elves can never give—that indescribable
quality which I have ventured to call civic
ladyship.

tion. Whatever flags and flowers could
prevailing note during the past
as been the note of sclf-congratuln-
ear has been attempted. It has been
jubilate throughout, os was proper enough
in connection with birthday festivities,
and yet there is another ride to it all. The
statistics of the city's trade are marvel
ous, but what of the inventory of its
spiritual possessions and the roster of its
great men? How many poets and how
many seers, how many composers and how-
many Artists, how many scholar* and di
vines, how many philosophers and states-
meu has this community produced in the
course of its two hundred and fifty years
of organized existence? Nay, of those
whom we recall as having come under one
or another of these head-, how many have
been of first rank, how many even of sec
ond rank, when the complete census of
“tbe great of old" is taken into account?
These, perhap*. are humbling reflections,
but they are wholesome. It is by count
of heroes, not by count, of heads, that a
city’s place in the final list of houor* is to
be determined. Whether this city of mag-
nificeut npjMirtunitios is destined to accom-

divisional lines af: drawn by tlir? pencil ot
authority? Here; thank God; we have u
)nucH worthier Ueflnition bf the word and
more satisfactory iittfcfpi'fetiUtert bf the
thing. Ladyship, under a democracy,
means and can mean only one thing,
womanhood at its best. Not nil woman
hood is womanhood at its best any more
than all manhood is uia ' ood at its hc»t—
would that it were. And what are rhe
characteristics of womanhood at its best?
What arc the tc’:e~~ by which it is au
thenticated? We cannot greatly differ in
opinion upon this point. Surely of these
cue.rncteriKtics dignity is one, gentleness is
another, fortitude is a third and sym
pathy tonlplfctC'4 the bluster. It were un
reasonable. bf t’durscj tb expect the full
ness of each one of these tnur trait* in
iny single personality, no matter how rich
ly endowed by inheritance or carefully
mature J ly training. And yet it is beyond
queoliou hint some tincture of each one
must be found present in a woman before,
under democratic conditions, her claim to
ladyship <an be accounted valid.
# Dignity—there are n thousand imita
tions of it. counterfeits beyond number,
but how wholly admirable is the genuine
article, what ‘ aip excellent thing in wom
an!" Mot bv iipirtg dignity do wc become
dignified. Aloofness is not dignity, hau
teur is not dignity, stiff uv* i* not dignity.
- *nanner and a brocaded stv'r
of uneecii— these are net dignity. 'J rue dig
nity i* not of ice, it U of ilame. A certain
debcati’ and liery nimbus which circles th*
anctrarv of personality to Lifeguard it
from intrusion and encroachment. “Their
dignity." exclaims an old Hebrew pro-
pliet. giving us the wlio'e tiling in a nut
shell, "their dignity shall .proceed of them-
selves." Dignity ia reconcilable with all
forms of occupation, even the most men
tal. It consorts with many qualities, al
though with vanity it is reluctant to walk,
and with immodesty it wil] have nothing
to do. Immodesty io tho fcin against pro
portion, its Very name so signifying, and
the philosophic emperor remarks in his
meditations^ “There is a proper dignity
nnd proportion to be observed in the per
formance of every net of life." Hence to
do anything out of measure and in excess
is undignified.
Then as to genuine*?, our second attri
bute of womanhood ui its best, what shall
we say of gentleness? Can we say any
thing better or truer than that it is the
child, the direct offspring of dignity. The
truly dignified can scarcely be thought of
as the ungentle, for here itjrnin that ques-
ways and boisterous talk aland self-con
demned. Few things indeed can wc so ill
afford to spare out of the daily intercourse
of life as woman’s gentleness. And this, is
only the more true the noisier the world
becomes. With life punctuated for us by
the shrieks of steam whistles, the rattle
of the chariots of iron and the strokes of
*11 manner of gongs, how restful, how
healthful, how reinvigornting are the ac
cent* of gentleness! Ah. my dear young
friends, whatever else you forget to lie,
remember to be gentle. An anxious fear
in the hearts of many thoughtful people, a
fear which personally 1 do not share, but
of which it is just os well to take note, is
that out of all this contemporary struggle
of woman for a complete independence,
this duplication on her part of as much ot
man’s work us is imitab.e. there may
eventually an impairment of the world**
total stock of gentleness. Let us he mi«erw
here. The tide of this sweet grace is nevet
at the flood. Thprc is no peril of any over
flow. We need to treasure every drop
there is.
As to fqititude. I eho**e the word with
care, wishing to mark off from courage in
general that spreinl form of this virtue
which has found frequent and sp'endid il
lustration in the annals of womanhood.
Courage of the sort which qualifies one "to
drink delight of battle," to head Kiorming
parties and to volunteer on forlorn hopes
is not expected of women, and, for that
matter, i* not mi common among men a*
men would Jibe to have it thought, hut of
that other and more Praiseworthy fearless-
lies-, which, without the excitement of con
flict. is able patiently to suffer, persistent
ly to endure, in this Christlike virtue, it i*
liosrible—it lias ten thousand times been
rhowii to be possible that women *hou!d
,i.„ *
cel. With th
wholly absent no woman's character even
so much as approximate? perfection.
But it in not enough to he able uncom
plainingly io suffer—have we learned to
suffer with? That is what sympathy means
—"suffering with’’—remember that ►ympa-
thv won the !a*t of the four blossom* we
set out to twine into our wreath. It doe*
not matter how well bred a woman may
be in o*her respect*, it does not matter
how varied her iteconiplislimcnl*. intellect
ual or artistic, if tender heartcdtiess, the
power to enter quickly and deeply into the
t'c< iinr of others, if this be wholly absent,
it ri idle to talk about "charm.” it «*mp!y
is not there. It is tin-* insistent i«po*»
sympathy, as a necessary ingredient ot
true womanhood that renders the Chris
tian type uo infinitely superior to the old
classic type whether or maid or matron.
That a woman can look on composedly at
a bull light is the opprobrium of Spanish
civilization, but there was a time when
not in one corner of the Mediterranean
exclusively, but all over the Latin world
women called ladies could both tolerate
and even fiercely «!ciight in the shedding
of innocent blood.
What has changed all this? Only one
answer to thui question i* possible. Jesus
Christ has changed all this. To Him we
owe it that today not only dignity and
fortitude (stoic virtue* a* well as Chris
tian; not only dignity and fortitude, but
a!»o gentleness and sympathy are recog
nized * as necessary feature* of nil true
lrtd> ship.
But who i* Kufii'ient for tbe-e tilings?
