Now a Necessity, has often been mentioned through these columns that a llrst- class restaurant for ladies and gen tlemen would be a payiug invest ment, and a great convenience. It now come to a |>olnt where such a place is a necessity. Amerl* with its metropolitan airs can not be without one longer. As it now is, a gentleman can get his lunch day or night, but with u lady it is Impossible. Often after a play at the opera house, couples desire to take some light refreshments, and if such a saloon was hero, it would become a custom for all to visit It after the theatre. Then dur ing the day many of nur ladies de sire to stop and get a cup of coflee, and such a place could not fail to be a profitable investment.

W. A. Cook. A Bunaway. An old negro woman came near getting badly hurt down on Cotton aveneue yesterday. She was sit ting in a buggy when a bicyclist passed on his wheel. The mule was freightened, and made a jump, throwing the woman out and bruis ing her considerably. The mule was caught be fora doing any further damage. It will be'tho biggest thing of the kind ever gotten up in this part of the Htate. There Is little time to arrange things, but the people are wrought up to such a high pitch that they will work wonders. The project was not mentioned until nearly night, but was taken up immediately and with enthusi asm. It was talked over, subscrip tions to defray the expenses sponta neously offered. Plans were ar ranged, and to-day they will crys- talize, resulting In the jubilee to morrow night. Everything hat beeu arranged for the culmination, and all that Is now necessary is for the people notified so they can be ou hand and let out some of their pent up enthusiasm. Judge Crisp and others will deliver speeches, and a regular old Demo cratic love feast will be had. Brass bands will give forth stir ring strains, and fireworks of all kinds will lend their beauty to the scene. No suggestion ever met with such a reoeptfbn as this, and while not many could be notified last night, every one who heard of it seized the idea at one. The fact is the people feel so good over thejr sweeping victory that they are just obliged to flud an out let for tbelr enthusiasm. Ho let It come, and those who could not be notified till this morn ing, just let yourselves out and see how big a time we can have. Close up the stores early and let both proprietors and employees help cel ebrate. Never in the history of the psrty has there been such a victory, and it Is right that all should bo allowed the privilege of expressing their Joy. And what an enormous expres sion it is golug to be! If you are called on to-day to help in any way, don’t fail to respond. We are going to show what wo think of the party, and waut you to help. Of course, you waut to as sist, and just let everything else drop, and let your heart pour forth its gladness Fruits—all kinds, at Cohen'i Telephone 08. Taken Up.

Atlanta, Nov. 0.—Both Houses got down to business yesterday. The Henate scored one bill read ; Ibe Hdnse had sev eral. Most of the day was taken up, however, in the examination and consolidation of the returns for the last statu election, requiting a joint sex-don. The bills, It is worthy of remark, were read in full; following the old custom. The committees of tho House and Henate will probably bo announced Monday. THE HOUSE. Bevera! bills were introduced and read for the first time. The first bill was by Clifton, of Chatham. To Incorporate the Elec tric .Railway Company of Savan nah. Baxter, of Bibb—A bill to extend charter. Macon and Atlantio rail road sixty years. -- Humphries, of Brooks—A bill pro vlding for the appointment of t board of commissioners by the ordi nary of Brooks county to appraise estates of all deceased persons. Harper, of Carroll—A bill to In corporate the Atlanta and Birming ham railroad. Davis, of Burke—A bill to incor porate the Southern Exchange Bank. Cliftou, of Chatham—A bill to regulate trial by jury requiring Judges to stipulate cause of grant ing new trials and restricting such methods. The first Senate’,bill—and tho only oue, so far—wss to "creatoanew charter for the citv of Columbus and to consoildste and declare the rights and powers of said corpora tion and for other purposes"—by Hays, of the 24tb. It was read Id full, after the old fashlou; as though no constitutional amendment had ever been submit- 1. The question is not regarded settled, but the Senate wanted to boon the safe side; and tho old manner of reading bills will be kept up until the matter Is definitely de cided iu some way. THE CONSOLIDATED JtBTURNB, The consolidation of the vote in the last State election resulted as follows: Nortben 105,305 Cook 103,098 Hardeman.. u. 102 011 Wright fb2,621 Lester 100,033 Nesbitt 00,400 As soon the count was com pleted with both houses adjourned uutil ten to-morrow. GOSSIP. The legislature has got squarely down to business, and ibis morning there was a large number of new bills introduced. From the reading of the uew bibs it would not appear that tfeifl was an anti-railroad legis lature,for most of the bills wero for the chartering of new railroads or the amendment of charters for old ones. At 11 o'clock there was a Joint meeting of the House and Henate to o|>en and tabulate the election turns forGovernor and State House officers, a proceeding more monot onous than Interesting. The senatorial question Is the main theme of Interest and will continue to be so for a week, for the election does not come until a week from next Tuesday. The opponents of Gordon are moving slowly in the matter. They have held one meet ing for the interchange of opinions, but did not attempt to' concentrate upon any one man. Judge Hines’ friends claim that be hoe sixty votes, but the friends of the other candidate* make equally as large claims, and the result is therefore uncertain. The Alliencemen claim that they have one ’hundred and r.izty-fonr members of the legislature pledged to oppoee Gordon and vote for any man whom they may unite on, and to etlek together at all haxxarde. The general talk In the hotel cor ridors Is that Calhoun will be the man upon whom tba opponents of Gordon will anlto, and many Gor don men express a preference for him a* second chlce, as they say if Gordon la defeated they want a man who has the ability to represent Georgia with credit, and all ooneede that Calhoun has that ability! ■ The election news has put all Democrats In tbelr best hutppr, al though most of them cannot fully realize the site of the victory, LAST NIOHT'S CAUCUS; Seuato'shlp gossip is plentiful this morning; principally, of course, about tho allianoe oauout last night. Two things were done. First, a' resolution was passed, without dis sent or division, that no man be elected, eeoator "unless ha stands squarely upon theamnooe plat form." This was dearly understood to be anti-Gordon; and It seams to show that while It Is atlll an opan question as to who will be senator, Gordou has no chance. Secondly, Calhoun’s natna woo mentioned, contrary to the general expectation. Livingston himself did It. The result of this was that several alliance membari retired from the caucus. Of course there Is no predicting the ultimate effect of this demon stration. Efforts are now being made to solidify the allianoe In Calhoun’s Interest. Speculation about It Is Idle. Norwood is hero hard at work. So Is Hines. One of t ie best legislative storlaa going the rounds now la one Ex-Senator Joe Btrother, of Lin coln—"from the dark oorner of Lincoln," la fact. To this effect. . Last year, while In tho Senate, Col. Strother bad occasion to point out the degenerate uselessness of petitions, In which he severely rid iculed the getting up of saeh pa pers. "They don’t mean anything now aday*,’’ sold he. "This promiscu ous signing of petitions la a nui sance; and the way to stop Rio to make the people that sign them re- sponsible for what they say. Peo ple ought to be careful In suoh matters." Next day tho Senator was at hla desk when a colleague put a paper on the desk before him. "Joe," he said, "sign thglml a petition to the goverm^P What Is It?" asked Col. Btroth- "Who signed It?" Oh, then, duBIgnon, and Steve Clay and John T. Hall—everybody but you." And the unsuspecting colonel actually signed this petition: "We, tho undersigned membere of the House and Senate, respectfully pe tition your excellenoy to have Joe Strother, of the 29th, hanged until he Is dead." The paper is still Inexlstenoe, and amongst the signatures la that of Hon. Joe Strother, of tba 20th. The paper baa never bean pre sented to (he Governor, and Col. Strother hasn’t been hung yet, but the Joke'was complete. Note—Bob Lewie, of Hanoook, odds that a movement Is on foot In the Senate—in which body Col. Strother Is now dark—to present the petition and have the sentenoe carried into effect. THE FIRST DAY. WHAT WAS DONE BY THE SYNOD YESTERDAY.
