FOR THREE CENT FARES.-
Major Collier’* lloal Object In Seeking to
Kill the CouMolidatede
Atlanta, July 3.—Mayor Collier gave
a new turn to the fight between the city
and tne Consolidated Street Railway
company bv announcing that his real
object in seeking the dismemberment
of the system, as previously announced
in these dispatches, is the securing of
S-eeut fares.
The mayor holds that, if the six sys
tems which were nuited to form the
Consolidated, were operated separately,
the competition would force a reduc
tion of fares below 5 cents.
The ground on which the breaking np
of the comimatioii will be asked is that
it is a conihin.irn.il of competing lines
and thereby violates the state constitu
tion.

London,'July 3 —The Prince of Wales
inspected the colonial troops at Back-
ham palace aud bestowed a medal, com
memorative of the jubilee, npou each
man preseut. The entire force passed
the prince in single file. Arriving in
front of the priueo and several paces
away, the colonial soldiers sainted aud
then turned toward the prince, ad
vanced, halted iu front of him, sainted
again and received the medal. The
medals of the officers are of silver and
those going to the non-commissioned
officers aud privates are of brouzs.
At the conclusion of the ceremony
the Prince of Wales called for tnree
cheers for the queen and they were
given in the heartiest manner possible.
The Princess of Wales, Princess of
Schleswig-Holstein, Duchess of Con

Holstein, all the colonial premiers, the
secretary of state for the colonies, Joseph
Chamberlain, the Dake of Couuaaght,
Lord Wolseley" and Lord Roberts of
Kandahar, were among those preseut at
the ceremony.
During the presentation of the med
als, the Princess of Wales held a re
ception beneath a great elm tree in
front of the terrace. All the colonial
premiers and their wives and daught
ers were separately introduced to the
princess, who received them most cor

Bulletin, commenting editorially on the
matter, says that the Republican sena

Cleveland, July 3.—Jndge T. K.
Dissette baa decided the Smith lynch I
law invalid. The law permits persons
injured in riots to recover from the
county. It went before the court in the |
form of a damage suit brought by J.
W. Caldwell against the county to- re
cover damages for injuries received in |
a strike.
The court did not hold the law mak
ing counties and municipalities liable |
for property destroyed by mobs uncon
stitutional. bat he did bold that the]
conviction and punishment of the of
fenders shonid be a bar to the recovery
of any damage.
The serious defect lies in the wording
of the law fixing damages absolutely at
$300 for slight injuries aud $1,000 for |
serious injuries iufiicted by a mob.
The court held that two or three per
sons may constitute a mob and that the I
law opened np the way to innumerable |
damage suits against the county.
Moreover it placed the damages beyond
the jurisdiction of a jury, and the |
amonut of damages wonld likely be al

ies indicted.

Which tho President Has Laid Down.
New Yobs, July 5.— A Washington
dispatch to The Herald is as follows 1
Two developments in connection with
the Onban question have just become
public. The first relates to the home
coming of Oousul General Lee, who
will be in Washington within the next
two weeks for the parpose of conferring
with Minister Woodford in regard to
the oandition of affairs in Onba and the
Rniz case. The other is that Secretary
of War Alger has quietly intimated to
Captain Taskar R. Bliss, who will
shortly proceed to Madrid as the mili
tary attache to the United States lega
tion, that it wonld be inadvisable to
take Mrs. Bliss aud her children. Lieu-

From the latter facts it is evident
that the administration proposes to

Caestloo of Whether a Man Can Be Im
prisoned For Debt.
Charlotte, N. O., July 5.—The ques
tion whether a man oan be imprisoned
for debt in this state has been warmly
debated the past week; Sections 53 and
63 of the revenue act passed by the late
fusion legislature, provide that the
sheriff make a return to the court of all
who have not paid their taxes, and that
each person who fails to pay his taxes
is guilty of a misdemeanor and mnst be
punished by a fine not exceeding $500,
or be imprisoned for a period of not ex
ceeding six months.
As the state constitution provides that
there shall never be imprisonment for
debt except in casas of fraud, it was
thought that these sections wffuld re
main inoperative, bnt the attorney gen
eral has decided that any one may be
jailed for the nonpayment of taxes, as
it is not really a debt, bat a duty or ob
ligation of citizenshiprfhat the citizen is
obliged to perform. His decision mnst
stand until autumn, when a test case
will be carried to the supreme court for
its final decision.
The validity of the law providing for
local taxation for public schools has also
been assailed the past few days, on the
ground that section 14 of the second ar
ticle of the state constitution provides
that law to raise money on the credit of
the state, to pledge the faith of the
state for the payment of any debt, or to

ranks of its population advance in edu

law of evolution is at work upon the
southern negro. With the facilities for
schooling which the laws everywhere
extend to him, the race must be stead

the sense of personal dignity and the

There is more than one passion to be

Let public sentiment—and that
means the newspaper—staud by the
sheriff who tries officially to shield his
prisoner from the lynchers, when per

hero, aud there would be more of them
if they felt sure of the support of the

A mother
is always
ready to sacrifice
self for her baby. _
nature does not often
call for any such sacri
fice. On the contrary ;
nature calls upon every
mother to carefully pro
tect herself and in that
way to protect her baby.
During the critical
period when a woman is looking forward to
motherhood, the best protection she can
give to the tender little life which is depend
ent upon her own. is to fortify herself with
the health - bringing " Favorite Prescrip
tion” prepared by Dr. R. V. Pierce, chief
consulting physician to the Invalids’ Hotel
and Surgical Institute, of Buffalo, N. Y.,
and sold by all dealers in medicines. ©
All the dangers of motherhood and most
of its pains’and discomforts are entirely
banished bythe use .of this rare “Prescrip
tion.”# It gives elastic strength and true
healthful vitality to the special organs and
nerve - centres involved in motherhood.
This healthful condition is transmitted to
the baby both by the improved quality of
the mother’s secreted nourishment and by
the child’s increased constitutional vigor.
It is a perfect health protector to them
both. No other medicine was ever devised
by an educated, scientific, physician for the
express purpose of bringing health and
strength.to.the special feminine organs. No
other preparation ever accomplished this
purpose so scientifically and effectually.
A more particular description of its re
markable properties with a full account of
some surprising cures of female difficulties
is given in one chapter of Dr. Pierce’s great
thousand-page illustrated book, “The Peo
ple’s Common Sense Medical Adviser,”
which is sent free paper-bound for the mere'
cost of mailing-: 21 one-cent stamps; or,
cloth-bound, for 31 stamps. Address the
Doctor as above.
There is a right and wrong principal
in the career of everyone’s life. Some
are so constituted and sanguine in their
own estimate of what is right and wrong
that they believe all their ways are
right. Snch have bnt one ideal, that ii
believing wbat they do as perfection,
while others wonld see their own
wrongs as soon as they wonld in others.
These kind of people are broad-minded,
not wrapped up in eelf-oonoeit. You
will Had bigotry in some of the mem
ber! in every aooiety. It is not always
the ones making the most noiee and
greatest stir in the world that are -the
nearest to that whioh is right. We have
known some and heard of others that
would make the greatest pretentions as
being right, taking the.amen corner in
society, attracting atention by their
atnana, when in point of bueineia they
are no nearer to that whiob is right and
justifiable than those that profess noth-
Icg hypocritically to attract the atten
tion of a certain class of people to tbelr
ways and business. It is strange how
some of the human race oan so prosper
ously succeed filled with bypocracy,
they are blinding the eyes of those
around them. Yet they do and are
looked upon as being and doing
right. Deception ia praetioed to
a greater extent than many
are aware of, there ia comparatively
but few live without it, and those that
stand the highest in the estimation of
the people are the ones that oan best
practioe it. There are some people
that are trying to do right, and if it wss
not for the wrong influence surround
ing them would oome nearer to it than
they do. Can any one expect to be a
aaint and live with devils. It can’t be
