Atlanta, Ga., Aug. 16.— 1 The State Su¬ preme Court has decided the Seaboard Line appeal of the boycott case In favor of the Seaboard Air Line. Last spring the Southern Uulhvuy and Steamship Association ordered a boycott against the Seaboard Air Line, charging It with Irregularities and manipulating rates. The Sea¬ board wuh not a member of the asso* elation. It denied irregularities and petitioned the Superior Court for an Injunction restraining the Western and Atlantic 1 tall road from enforcing a boycott against it. The Seaboard produced a traffic contract with the Western and Atlantic, which 1 h leased by the Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Louis, under which contract the Sea¬ board was to enjoy all the advantages of traffic allowed by the Western and Atlantic to any other road. Judge Lumpkin, the Superior Court Judge, rendered a decision restraining the Western and Atlantic from using the boycott against the Seaboard on local business, permitting It on through business. The Seaboard ap¬ pealed to the Supreme Court of the State, and has obtained a decision which prohibits the boycott. The de¬ cision has no. practical effect on the road, since they came to a compromise two months ago. t i :u.on FE v id it Tin* I'll H«*n t on MuIiiImm-im* ImIiiimI I)Ii*iI From Hm* IIIMt»n h** Hv Southern Ahho«um(*m1 IVohm.

MARTIN EX CAMPUS MIST SOON YIELD NEGRO DOMINATION WOILU FOL¬ LOW INDEPENDENCE Tliut Is W Ii> tlie Decisive llluiv Is Deferred ■ By Southern Associated Press. Quarantine Station, S. 1., Aug. 12.— The Ward Line steamer Seneca, from Mexican and Cuban ports, arrived ear¬ ly this morning at Quarantine. One of tlie Havana passengers, in speak¬ ing of affairs a I that place sayn that on Aug. 7, tlie day before the Seneca sailed, Capt. Gen. Martinez Campos called together all of the organizations and demanded the transfer to the reg¬ ular army of on«* hundred men from each company. General indignation prevails among these organizations, hut the order will be enforced. The insur¬ rection is more widespread than we of Havana are allowed to believe, ami Campos will not last long. He was caught in a bad trap at Brayamo and but for the impulsive action of the Cu¬ ban general, Mueeo, who precipitated Ills attack, Campos would certainly have been captured. The insurgents win in every fight. In the paet four mouths 'tlie Spanish forces have lost, by disease, drunkenness, and killed in battle, fully 15,000 men. No reports are allowed to be circulated concern¬ ing losses in battle, but authorities ad¬ mit that in this period 10,000 have died from disease, or excessive indulgence in food or drink. Thirty tuousand insurgents are known to be in the field, overrunning the country, and making their camps in the mountain fastnesses, from which they sally to strike n blow and return to camp, depending on their rapid movements to disconcert the enemy. They have been asked by sympathizers of the revolution, of whom there are about S.000 in the city and suburbs of Havana, tvhy they do not capture and occupy Santiago or some other im¬ portant city. This they .claim that they cotiid do, but their plans as to tin* future would not permit it. That to to say, a large majority of the in¬ habitants of Cuba are negroes, and independence would mean negro gov¬ ernment. If independence could hg se¬ cured with tlie establishment of a pro- tee turn te under the United States or some other strong government then the question would soon he settled. Failing in this, tlie general desire is to secure home rule from the mother country The capture of an iuqsirtant seaeoast town would be followed by the recognition of their rights as bellig- erents Until some definite plan can lie settled, the guerilla warfare will be continued \ large majority of people are hoping for concession from Spain In preference to independence, as tlie feasibility of n republic with¬ out negro domination would he diffi¬ cult to obtain. gjpnulslt Victories.

From May till October the girl with na¬ turally curly, wavy hair can erow over ner sister with straight locks, for heat and tampness are deadly, invincible foes to artificial curls The reut of the year it is share and share alike, for cold, crisp weather makes tlie natural curls stiff and straight There are a hundred and one Inventions and appliances to make tlie hair curl, and some are remarkably sue. cessful. But the trouble with all is the same The results are not lasting, and a sudden slo wer any fog, or. the thermo- meter going up into tlie nineties, makes all previous toil fruitless. It may seem a small matter to the world at large, but it is no small matter to the woman con¬ cerned to start out looking trim, neat. and really pretty, and in half an hour to lie a hideous fright, with long lank locks in place* of the coquettish, trimly arrang¬ ed ringlets. proved efficacious The only plan that has i,4 to wet the hair thoroughly with alcohol or cologne, curl it while wet, leaving the curls uncombed until the hair is thorougli- ly dried Then putting a touch of powder both on curls and forehead will remove any temporary dampness, and the curls will stay in—mysterious saying—for hours. The alcohol dries up the natural mois- turt of the hair, and tlie curling while wet with the spirit is what produces the destr- vd results Tlie dash of powder is so slight as not to show, and gives additional dryness, The curls must be curled with hot tongs ; there is no use in using the patent curlers for this purpose. The waved effect which has been so fashionable for the side locks comes under this same rule, and it is surprising how long t'he waves remain wavy even on the hottest day, and, best of all, how natural they look. with hot Constant curling and waving irons is bound to be prejudicial to fine hair but much damage can be prevented by being careful not to use the irons if they are in the least rough. A perfectly smooth, evenly healed iron, not hot enough to burn the liair, will do no harm, and t’he roughness that culs can easily lie discerned, and consequently guarded against. It is a good plan if one is in the habit of constantly curling the hair with irons to take a vacation for a month or six weeks, and during that time wear one’s hair quite smooth. A good way to make the hair look na- uraliy wavy across the lop of tile head s to wet the front locks very thoroughly before going to bed. then to pull them forward anti tic as tightly over them a*4 is comfortable a band of net. Phis holds the hair down, and when taken oif in tlie morning makes a most natural and be- coming wave mucli more graceful than can be produced by tlie broadest iron. The various' washes which are sold to nake the hair curl have til a tendency to fade, even alcohol and cologne have the same fault, lout in a mqditied degree, so that it is as well to examine very thor¬ oughly anything of the sort Washing i wtee a week with pure soap and warm water will keep tlie front and side locks in good order, and will i way with'any injurious effect of the alcohol used every dav. for Bang nets, t is are called the nets the front hah *, are necessary parts of every woman’s s i mer outfit, and save a lot of trouble, keeping the hair n place nicely.—From Harper’s Bazaar.
