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. In Ihc U. S. Court.

HOW’S TlllSf A Reported Deni by Whleh Cleveland in In Oppoae Crisp. From Monday's Evening Herald. The Augusta Croniclo of yesterday prints the following from its Wash ington correspondent: A mugwump congressman from rk made New York made some starling state' ments to tho Croniclc representativo this morning. His disappointment at not being able to control certain pat ronage in his State prompted him to divulge wlmt would otherwise have 90 BROAD STREET. 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. If this is true, and circumstances point that wgy, the great deal will create a wnat tub jmw nai depart ment DID I.A1ST NIGHT.

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.
