Atlanta, Aug. 14.—(Special.)—A suit waa filed here this morning which will necessarily open afresh all of the sen- national details In the late Harry* Hill case. The plaintiff In the case Is Mr. W. E. Hill, and he has entered suit against Mrs. Fanny 'Lowry Porter for the sum of $200. which he claims to have loaned her on May 12, 1893. through her agent, John W. Echols. Esq. This was at the time when certain notes, alleged to have been signed by Mrs.' Porter and afterward negotiated i by Harry Hill, were repudiated by Mrs. Porter, and Mr. Hill recites in his suit that Mrs. Porter borrowed the money from him for the purpose of getting Harry Hill beyond the reach of prose cution. He avers that the defendant promised to refund the amount bor rowed. <but has since persistently re fused to do so. Mr. Hill sues for the principal and the lawful interest that has since accrued. The plaintiff In the suit is a cousin of Harry Hill and a gentleman o-f prominence In the most exclusive social circles of the 6tate. He is a member Of the Governor’s Horse Guards and his Atlanta connections are of the In ner circles. He was the leading wit ness for the defense when Harry Hill was recently tried for forgery and con victed. The suit is the topic of gossip here today and everybody is looking for spicy additions to the sensational evi dence that has already become a part of the Fulton county superior court records. Harry Hill in the meantime is serv ing out a sentence of five years at the Gress lumber camp. Little has been heard of him for several months, but It is understood that he Is behaving himself so well ns to authorize a reas onable hope of an early pardon. A COFFIN FOR SENATOR HOAR. Atlanta, Aug. 14.—(Special.)—Old Sen ator Hoar of Massachusetts, whose place In the senate has been so persist ently used to vlllify the South, has a gruesome but suggestive surprise In store for him some time tomorrow. It Is in the shape of a coffin contain Ing the remains of ,the Kolb boom which died so completely in Alabama tt few days ngd. The coffin Is a present to Senator Hoar from some of the Democrats of Governor-elect Oates' 6tate, and It la intended to suggest memories of the $5,000 contribution Blade by the Home Market Club, of Which the senator is chief, to "split the solid South.” The coffin passed through Atlanta to- day* .en Tputa to the senator’s address in Washington and was an object of great curiosity. It was the kind of casket used at Georgia pauper farms, but Its outside surface was thickly cov- er ed with inscriptions, every ono of which breathes a campaign story. On the centre of the lid a com cob held in place by a piece of crape told who was (lead. Senator Hoar will doubtless feel that partisan stateemahship has Its penalties when the express messenger drives up Ws door with the solemn reminder or Alabama b cyclone.

One of the Congregational Churcfrea Would Not Tolerate Social Equality. Atlanta, Aug. 14.—(Special.)—Har mony Grove church, about seven mfftfl from Atlanta, is no longer a part nnd parcel of the churches of the district conference. At a meeting of the con ference at Gainesville on Saturday it wus kicked out because it refused, to conform to the doctrine of social equal ity, ns laid down by the national coun cil with headquarters up North. 'Plus ‘church, believing that social equalty between the races would lead to amal gamator has been outspoken on the subject, and for mutated the following resolutions, with the disastrous result above named: . “Resolved, first. That we recommend a dissolution of the general Congrega tional convention of Georgia, organized December 3, 1890. (Resolved, second, That no union of the white and colored churches should ever decur, and that separate organi zations should ever be maintained. • "Resolved, third, That we should put ourselves squarely upon the white side of this question and as opposed to the amalgamation of the races. •'Resolved, fourth. That these resolu tions be spread upon the minutes of this conference, and that we correspond with sister churches and inform them of the action of Harmony Grove church upon the race question, and ask them to co-operate with us. Also that a committee be appointed to correspond wittt the Congregational churches of the state and see what can *be done towards calling a con vention to meet some time In the near future lor the purpose of discuss ing and formulating some plan of ac tion which will adjust the whole mat- te Jt Is not kndwn where the issue will end, but *t seems that Harmony Grove has the best of it so far. : ONLY A MATTER OF TASTE. - Atlanta., Aug. 14.—(Special.)—The queen of song and dramatic pose, who has put in the summer at the Edge- wood Avenue Theatre, rounded off tier engagement by a one-act drama at the oar shed Sunday that enveloped her departure in a cloud of conflicting emo- ' Several dava ago th'* giddy godd^s emphasized be* beiler in social' equal ity of the races by having photograph* struck with her head leaning lovingly against-that of her-black negro maid. But on Sunday, when she was taking leave of her Atlanta friends at the car shed, she literally covered the face of her maid with hot, passionate kisses, at the same time giving her the hug of a human bear. This might have been one of the woman's delightful eccen tricities, but those who witnessed the disgusting exhibition will ever after? wards Hold their noses If forced to listen *o th* 1 musioal tones of her ange.lc voice.

In the artistic development of the banquet John Chinaman has passed all rivals, ancient and modern', by the cre- utlon of the sing-song girl, says the New York Sun. This la a wonderful combination of waiter, valet and vocal ist, iustrthnentalUt, raconteur, ■ toward, pipe bearer, clgarelite holder, flirt, and, above all, n thing of beauty and a Joy forever. She came into being a thou sand years ago, a century or so after •the sages and philosophers of the Flowery Kingdom had establish'd tihe system of keeping the sexes as far apart as law, custom and tho police tan separate bhem. To nveiJ't a sing-song girl In all her glory you must go to a dinner where •the guests are congenial and of about the same rank. Where itho host is a great banker and h^s friends small merchants, or where he Is a powerful mandarin and they inferior officials, there are always certain condescension on tahe part of the former and a ner vous uniMisInoess on the part of 4hc latter which play havoc with good fel loovshlp. In the corner of the room are the sing-song girt*. They range from three upward. -At a very luxurious dinner there may be two to each guest. This, however, is rare. The .cost is vtfry great, and when there is such a mul titude they interfere with one another, One to a guest in the moat convenient number, and seem* to lye preferred by the regular diners out. One Lo every two guests Is u1h> common. The artists are > oung women whose ages arc any where from sixteen to twenty-eight. They are pretty from a Mongolian standard, nnd pttractive even from our own. Tholr Ups nnd cheeks ore deli cately tinted, their brows and necks powwred with flour de rJz, The tralr Is a marvelous work of art, brushed, oiled, Htlffened, perfumed and set full of wonderful pins. Diamond or Jid*» earrings hung from exquisite ears; a necklace encircles the throat; brace let*, bangles and j.ide rings half con ceal fair arms, and a score of rings load down slamder and graceful fingers. A3 for the costumes, their splendor baffles description. Each wait consists of a coat and a pair of trousers of the finest silk, entin or brocade. When the guests have been conduct ed to the banquet hail the sing-sbng girl comes forward with a low stool and slt/» half behind you to ypur right. The girls have relinquished their mu sical instruments, and now each bears a silver tray on which are a waiter pipe, cigar lighter, dgare«i< » ajid cl gars. This they lay on the floor bo«lde them. The waiters bring Jn the first course. The girls rise and serve the guests from the central dtelhr*. At first they do it in a dignified and serf ous fashion, transferring the food to your plate, bringing dellcncl?* to you from various parts of the table, filling your teacup and pouring into your drinking cup the hot whv‘s ond liquors SO popular with the Mongolian. AH the itime they keep up d running fin? of conversation. Joking one second nnd telling a pithy story the next, making fun-of you at one moment and of your neighbor Immediately aft. rward, hum ming an air. whistling i catch, imitat ing a bird, doing everything to provoke tnirth nnd laughter. At the end of fifteen minutes, or ns soon a* there corner a lull in the pro ofings, a recess is taken and l truce declared with eating. The girls have foreseen it, and as the guests lean back In their ctritrs they offer them their cholo* of pipe, cigar or cigarette. In many cases a smart girl T will have found a man’s preference, and have ft at his Ups before he knows what she \» doing. Those who prefer to aid re main ln.,,their chairs; otih'ors rise nnd stroll around Mre two rooms nnd such halls os may be open to guests, nnd still others He down on a bunk and try the seductive fumes of opium. No other medicine has equalled Hood’s Sarsaparilla in the orllef it gives in pevero coses of dyspepsia, sick ueadacitac. etc. A STRIKE IMMINENT.
