Special to the Hkiulr,
Atlanta, March 10.—The grand jury
notv in session here, has several sensa
tions to spring on the publlo.
Among other things, it is said that
Ordinary Calhoun will be Investigated
for holding that lunacy trial on Mias
Julia Force when a warrant for mur
der had been sworn out.
Sheriff Rarnes has the Indiotment of
the Grand Jury, charging Julia Force
with murder, and will pay no atten
tion to Ordinary Calhoun's order di
recting Miss Force to be sent to the
lunatlo asylum at Milledgeville.
It Is reliably reported, nlso, that the
Coroner will be investigated by the
Grand Jury for not holding an inquest
over the body of Tom Cobb Jackson,
who suicided several weeks Ago, There
have been innumerable stories In cir
culation about the matter, and though
the Coroner, it Is believed, should have
held an inquest, there is no probabil
ity but that death ocourred exactly as
reported.
“ATLANTA’S BLACK WKKK."
I.ee Langley, a young newspaper
man well known in the State, line sud
denly jumped into notoriety by the pub
lication of the faot that he was tu issue
a book called “Atlanta's Black Week’’
connecting Redwine’s defalcation, the
Gate City Bank suspension, and the
several suicides and murders which
occurred here. Ten thousand copies
have been printed, but a t.emendoua
pressure is being brought to suppress
the book.
Thus far, the book has not appenred,
and the printing establishment isbeing
carefully guarded to prevent a copy
from being seen.
It is believed by many that I.nngley’s
book is not so sensational, perhaps, as
the publishers would have the public
believe.

HOW’S TlllSf
A Reported Deni by Whleh Cleveland

From Monday's Evening Herald.
The Augusta Croniclo of yesterday
prints the following from its Wash
ington correspondent:
A mugwump congressman from

not being able to control certain pat

remained a secret tiutil the proper
time Imd arrived for the scheme to
have been carried out, it is a fact that
Cleveland will oppose Crisp and it Ib
also a fact that tlie New York con
gressman will vote for no anti-silver
candidate. Richard Croker is said to
have arranged the combination in
order to save Tammany hall. The first
step was taken a few days ago when
Congressman Beckwell, Senator Hill’s
personal representative, visited the
White House. Asa result of this in
terview Senator IIIII called on Mr.
Cleveland yesterday and spent nearly
half an hour in earnest consultation
with the President. When lie left, as
well as when he entered, Mr. Hill
never‘looked happier or ill better
spirit in his lile. Newspaper men
have vainly endeavored to ascertain
from him what pass d between the
President ami himself, botali tlieir ef
forts have been futile. But here is the
whole substance of the conversation,
if a congressman’s word is worlii any
thing: Murphy and Hill are to con
trol the Federal patronage of New
York city and largely of the State, and
in return for this recognition from
Cleveland the Tammany congressmen
are to support Mr. Cleveland’s Can
didate for speaker, either Wilson or
McMillan,against Crisp. While suoli
a course would hardly benefit Senator
Hill, it appears that he had no alter.
ad in order to still be master
native am
of Tammany, he was forced to enter
the combination upon the terms stated.

pany with a woman and one or two
other Negroes, when some one on the

with a load of duck shot.
The would-be assassin spied his vio

wanted to shoot him. Tile mail who
did the shooting Is unknown.
Dr. W. L. Dnvis, of tills city, was

CUSHIONS.
Nowadays one cannot have too

shapes and covered with various kinds
of cloth. Those for the lounge may be
tilled with down, or feathers or the

Floor oushions are muoh liked where

Is securely fastened an upholsterer's
spring with twine and ap upholster
ing needle. Near each, of the four
smaller springs, ourled hair is then
paoked around these springs until
they are well aovored and then the
extra piece of burlap is fastened in

wool Ib laid over tho top of this cush
ion and another cover of unbleached
muslin is sewed uver the whole thing.
The outer cover mny be of silk, tap
estry, pongee, plush, chintz or any
other suitable material.
A heavy cord Is used to finish the
edges.
WALL DECORATIONS.
Fresoolng is reootnmended ns n now
departure in the list of feminine SO'
complishmcnts, and several very al-
luring accounts are given of tho work
done in this direotion by n certain
olever and artlstlo girl. * • -Hav
ing learned by experiment that she
had some talent in that direction, she
has been spending her time sines a few
months In transforming her boudoir
into a woodland bower, llalfway up
the wall she has painted the slim sil
very trunks of dogwood trees, and
from these spread upward, until they
cover the entire ceiling, branches -set
with the gray green leaves and broad
masses of white blossoms which make
the dogwood beautiful in spring. The
impression, upon entering tho room
almost takes away one’s breath with
surprise, sn much does it seem as
thougli one had suddenly stepped into
the heart of Ihe spring woods, the ef
fect of blossoming verdure is so realis
tic. The furnishings of the room are
being all arranged in white and green,
which matches the beautiful canopy of
llowers, and so delighted is the painter
witli the success of her work that she
has already made designs for the
adorning of her bedroom, which- is to
bo decorated with a wisteria vine in
full blossom.
A pretty and inexpensive way to tlx
the walla of a bedroom is to cover them
with some pretty colored cheesecloth
Just as If you were papering, except
tucks are used instead of paste, and
enre should be used that the tacks do
not show, or if any should, they must
he brass headed. Finish around the
top of tho wall with a border of pretty
flowered cretonne or calico, harmoniz
ing with the color of the cheesecloth
You will be surprised at the beauty of
the room If the work is neatly done.
It Is an excellent covering for an un
finished or soiled wall. Of course,other
material can be used, but the cheese
cloth is very soft looking nnd is espec
ially effective in light blue or pink,
and is inexpensive.
I have the prettiest line of new
Spring Millinery ever seen in Albany.
