2 BROUGHTON AGAIN RAMPANT. ANOTHER %TTACK o\ THE M IVOR AM) ( ITY COl NTIL. C lia reed That Certain Member* of Atlautn's Connell llal Horrowrd Money From 11. M. AtWimon on Poor Secnril y—Went for Connell for Fnllnre to Pnnfah the Mayor. Criticised the Journal and That Paper Came Hark at Him. Atlanta. July 38 —‘The ?e motion of the hour in Atlanta is the attack mad* by Dr. L. G. Froughton of the Tabernacle Bap tiat Church lnsc night upon the City Coun cil because of its failure to punish Mayor Woodward for las mis 'onduct. For some time pa?* Dr Broughton has made a practice of roasting the mayor every Sunday night and the people have ceased to pay mu h attention to what he nave on that ?eor*; b .t when he declared from his pulpit Sunday right that certain members of the City Council ha-i borrowed about $50,000 from Mr. H. M. Atkinson on real estate security worth only about one third of that amount, he injected new in terest into the fight he has been making upon the administration. Dr. Broughton de lared he was prepared to prove hi? charges. It was learned to-day that a representa tive of Dr Broughton had spent consider able t.me last week examining the records of mortgages at the Court House and it is supposed he furnished the information upon which the charges were based. The Loan* Referred to. It is known that two members of the City Council have borrowed money | through Mr Atkinson as agent for Boston capitalists, but the security given by both is worth far mor than the amount of the i loan. In both cases It is said the mort- ! gaged property is bringing rental to more than pay the interest on the loan. One j of the loans was mode before the borrower had been elected to Council. These are Bail to be the only cases upon record in which Mr. Atkinson has loaned money to coun, ilrrcn. Dr. Broughton declared at a meeting of the Baptif*! ministers this morning that he had done what he considered a public duty in exposing what he termed the rot tenness of the city government. He added that he was through for the pres ent. but hat if he found anything else off color in the city government he would not hesitate to tell the public. “All the corporations in the country have not enough money to atop my mouth," he declared. Journal Came Rack at Him. The Atlanta Journal was also roasted by Dr. Broughton for declining to print a notice giving the subject of his sermon lest night in its Saturday paper. Mr. ( Atkineon ia one of the owners of the Journal and ie treasurer of the company. He is out of the city. In an editorial this afternoon, the Journal pays: “Rev. Len G. Broughton attacked the Journal last night for declining to print | en extended advance notice of one of his •harangues. So many statements of an j unclean character emanate from the month of Mr. Broughton that the Jour- J ral cannot afford to open its column? for the purpose of advertising a thing abso lutely harmful to the community. Mr. Broughton also made an attack, on one of the Journal s stockholders, who hap- j pened to be out of the city, but who. upon hie return, will prove quite able to de fend himself.” >ll ST HAVE HER OWN RACES. Atlanta will Not lie r.ovprnrd by the Smaller Tnvrna. Atlanta, July 23.—Radical chances In racing plans contemplated In Georgia were made at a meeting of the Racing Committee of the Georgia Fair Associa tion this morning. The principal matter that came up was the question of whether Atlanta should be come- a member of the newly-formed Southern Interstate Racing Association. This was decided in the negative. Asa matter of fact when Mr. Martin ■was elected secretary In Atlanta for the new racing circuit, there was a hope and a well developed one. that Atlanta would take hold of the new racing circuit and do all in Its power to further the sport hero. Now It appears that offense has been tak en at the failure of the Way cross meeting to give At.anta the chief say in the new circuit and this city will draw out and throw in iis lot with Birmingham. "I believe," said Mr. Marttn at the meet ing of the Racing Committee this morn ing. "that it would fa- better for the sport of this city for us to co-operate with Birmingham or Augusta, which are to have racing this fall, preferably Birming ham. Atlanta cannot be dependent upon little places like Waycross and Valdosta in a case like this, and they have placed this city in the background; therefore, I would suggest that we have nothing’ to do with it." This View seemed to meet the approval of Caps. John H Miller, Mr. John H. Ott ley and Mr. Bro:ks Morgan of the. com mittee. Mr. Ottley expressed the opinion that Atlanta would possibly do better to go it alone. This seemed to bp the ropular view of the committee. The mat ter of racing was referred hack to Mr. Trsntor for final arrangements. He is now in the North making arrangements with the owners to bring their horses to Atlanta in October, when the racing be gins. and he nimself will be here on Sera. 1 to put the trock in condition and arrang- for stabling the racers when they arrive. tIAKIiVG TOPOGRAPHIC SIRVEY. An Important Work \ovr in Progress In Ninrtti Geornin. Atlanta. July 23.—A topographic survey of the northern part, of the state is now In propresa. The work Is b<ing done un der the pupervieion of Topographer Albert 8. Pike. It has been several years since the government liae mad** such o survey of the northern part of the state, and the present work If a re-ult of the efforrs ©f State Geologist Yate.<, who made sev eral trips to Washington recently to se cure it. The turvev will be of Krr<i# benefit f0 the geologVel department and to that portion of the etate %vhf*re the work is hem* done. The hee<lounrters of the surveying party is at Hiairsville, in Union county where Mr. Blair, has a large party assisting him. The Inst Congress made a large appropriation for topogra phic work, and it is very likely that $20.- 000 will be expended in Georgia. A great portion of the work done by th° geological department is based on the maps made by the tof>ographers and ■naps, which Will be issued soon as the survey is completed will be of valuable assist an re to Prof. Yates and his assist ants. M/irrliip at Mllnon. Markov. Ga., July 23. —At the home of the grodm’s parents in Stllson. Bulloch county, yesterday Mr. J D. Strickland was married to Miss Mamie Strickland, Rev. J. W.

Sup-posed to Have Been Found In Carolina. %enr Beaufort. Beaufort, S. C., July 23.—Little Island, some twelve miles from here, contains an interesting relic of the ancient of mount builders. The discovery of frag ments of ancient pottery on a high blu.T extending due north and south along the eastern n.argin of a deep creek • xcited the cupidHy of the negroes inhabiting the neighborhood, who reported their find and exhibited their specimens to Prof. Clarence B. Moore, president of the Acu<i<my of Natural Sciences in Phila delphia. With two associates. Prof. Moore chanced to be near by conducting researches. The three scientists repaired n once to the spot indicated to them by in vM negro who volunteered to net as guide, rnd found a natural bluff rising almost perpendicularly to a high* of ten feet above the level of the creek, sur mounting which was an artificial em bankment twenty feet hign, resembling, in contour, a huge ablong dome, on which were ti full grown oak trees. The largest treasured twelve feet in diame ter. and is estimated to be several cen turies old. A large force of negroe was set to work excavating under Prof. Moores direction, with the result that a perfect Mircture. formed of a quality of clay that the professor was convinced could noi have been obtained within 200 miles of the const, was unearthed This structure Lia r's on the original bluff ten fe I back from its present edge, and Is wonderfully well preserved. In shape it is almost square, having but one en trance. in the northeast corner. Whai appears to have served as an altar strnds exactly, by actual and careful measurement, in the middle of the west ern wall. The hight of the wall, which is absolutely uniform, is five feet and four Inches and the Impression in the clay made by wooden rafters is distinctly vis ible. In one or two portions the dark brown powdered remains of the rafters themselves ran be discerned adhering to the clay. The floor, also of clay, is hard as adamant and absolutely level, spaces, appearing at regular intervals, along he top of the structure suggest that a root originally surmounted It. The walls ore four Inches in thickness, and are fully as substantial as any constructed of madam brick. The <hmensions of this prehistoric ruin, together with the fragmentary le mains of pottery found within and about it. would seem to indicate that it was used by it® builders as a temple How many centuries have elapsed sine? it w i s obscured from human observation, be neath the artificial embankment, the learned scientist® hardly dared to surmise They ct uld only conclude that before them wi3 the work of a race of people possess ing a far higher order of intelligence than the American Indian, and who possessed also a standard of measurement not in ferior to that employed in our day. Prof. Moore if* a millionaire and devotes his time and means to scientific reseam. >-e is the author of several works on the mysterious race of motini builders and is of the opinion that they are as ancient as the Egyptians.

Dixon, a farmer living four miles west of this place, and murdered him. His wife had been to the home of a neighbor, and returned about 12 o'clock, finding her husband and children asleep. She soon fell asleep, but was aroused about 1 o’clock bv the struggles of Mr. Dixon. She struck a match, and seeing his face bloody, wnt for her brother, living near by. He came Immediately and found sev eral wounds above the ’.eft eye and on the forehead, which seemed to have been made with un instrument like a hatchet. He lived about an hour after his brother in-law arrived, being nil the while uncon scious. There is no clue to the perpetration of the crime. The coroner has impaneled a jury and gone to the scene of the mur der. SMITH GETS THE POSITION. tnnrded School Conimi*nionr rliip of Houston County. Atlanta. July 23.—The contest over the county school oommissionership in Hous ton county was brought to an end this morning by State School Commissioner Glenn, who decided that George Smith was eligible to hold th* place. At the recent election held in that coun ty for the place, E. S. Wellons, the in cumbent, and George Smith were the con testants. Smith was elected. At the time he was teaching school outside the county and Wellons objected to his election on the ground that he was not eligible, as he did not live in Houston county. Smith claimed that he was eligible, ns Houston county was his home. The case has been pending before Mr. Glenn for some time, and after hearing the final argument Saturday he made his decision.

I suffered all the time, and often to such an extent it a'most made my life miserable.

I commenced a cours? of Su wanee Springs "Water, and the result can not be told in any better or more effective way than by truthfully saying that I am now cured. This speaks volumes and tells the whole story, and is induced by my grateful appreciation for the benefit de rived. Think of it. after spending hun dred® of dollars for medicines and doc tors toil s, a few gallons of Suwanee Springs Water cured me, and without even visiting the springs, which proves your claim that the water is just as ben eficial w'hen drank at home.
