Washington, February 17.— (Special.)— -At the meeting of the National American Wo man’s Suffrage Association this morning, Atlanta was decided upon for the next an nual meeting of the association. The contest was between Washington, Cincinnati and Atlanta, and the vote on the first roll call was as follows: Atlanta 67, Cincinnati 57 and Washington 39. Atlanta was then chosen by a practically unanimous vote, there being but one objection to mak ing it unanimous. Atlanta had for its champion Miss Au gusta Howard and Miss Maxwell. Miss Maxwell said that a woman convention was regarded in the south as a curiosity, and to bring the woman suffrage convention to the south would bring women together from all over that section of the country. Mr. Henry Blackwell and the Rev. Anna Shaw also thought that Atlanta was the proper place for the next meeting. They said it was the heart of the solid south, where the conven tion could appeal to the men to extend to the women the political equalities vouch safed to men. Favorable words for Detroit were spo ken bv Emily B. Ketcham and Dr. Mc- Naughton. but later Detroit was withdrawn, thus narrowing down the choice to Wash ington, Cincinnati and Atlanta. It Wan ii Surprise. This is the first time in the history of the National American Woman’s Suffrage Association that it has voted to hold an annual convention outside of Washington. The scene preceding the taking of the vote was decidedly interesting, and marked the breaking away of many of the followers of their veteran leader with respect to sub mission to her wishes. Among those who spoke in favor of Wash ington were Misses Susan B. Anthony. C. B. Colby and Lillit Devereaux Blake. Miss Anthony’s argument was devoted to show ing that by the convention’s annually meet ing in Washington more had been done in making sentiment in the states than could possibly’ have been accomplished by meeting in any other place or places. She also re ferred to the full press reports of the pro ceedings published in the local papers here and sent out by the press associations, thus giving plenty of information to congress and the county at large. Miss Clay, of Kentucky, Mrs. Murphy, of Ohio, and Carrie La.no Chapman were three of the warmest champions of Cincinnati, while Miss Howard, of Georgia, Rev. Anna H. Shaw, Rachael Foster Avery all spoke in favor of Atlanta. Miss Ketcham, of Michi gan. said the women of her state were will ing the convention should go either to Cin cinnati or Atlanta. She voted for Cincin nati at first but changed when she found Atlanta was the favorite. February out todav. Bodneed 10 etq - At news stands or of I atriotic American Magazine Co., Philadel phia. SAM SMALL IN OKLAHOMA. The Strange Complications Into Which lie llrtM Fallen. St. Louis, Mo., February 12.—The Post- Dispatch prmts the following special from Oklahoma City: ■•Just one month ago Rev. Samuel Small, the Georgia evangelist, began the publica tion of a daily paper here. He had been conducting a revival for some months, and becoming convinced that there was a great future in store for this territory decided to live here. Being a bosom friend of Hoke Smith, he started his paper as the official organ of the administration in the terri tory and made a great flourish. He had run the paper but a week when the church people found him to be untrue to ins teach ings in tne pulpit, lor he published nis uaiiy bom Sunduj' and Monday mornings and thej- began to withdraw their patronage. At the 1-erry statehood convention the dem ocrats became convinced that Small was on the track for the United States senate and they began to knife him vigorously. "A week ago the tunas of tne paper begun to run low and Small went to Texas to lec ture and preach to get money to run the paper. la the meantime a row started among his associate managers and editors who were at home. Night before last Judge Rock, an ant'.-administration demo crat, on the editorial force, slipped in a bo gus dispatea assailing Governor Renfrow on the statehood question. Business Man ager Reynolds and the telegraph editor wired the governor that the thing was a fake and determined to have an apology in the paper the next morning. Kock. Frank McMasters and Junge Witten, all associate editors, determined not to have the apology printed. A pitched battle ensued, the police being called to quell the riot. The feeling is so bitter that now the paper is being is sued with a police officer in charge ot the office to keep the peace, while it is thought that. Small has become disgusted witii the whole outfit, and will not return at all, although he is being wired for about three times a day.” February ‘‘Blue and Gray” out today. Reduc' d to 1(‘ cents.

Atlanta, Ga., February 14.—Editor Con stitution; On reading in The Sunday Con stitution of the case og John Carberry, of New York, who is suffering from an acute attack of hiccoughs, 1 was reminded of a simple remedy icr this very distressing complaint, which 1 learned ot some ten or twelve years ago. At that time I was fore man in the \ve.stern Electric Company’s shops til A-.-w Vo, K. One day 1 had a se vere attack of hiccoughs and one of my men, unsold Englishman, told me he could relieve me in one minute. He did so and 1 have tried this same relief on myself anti others on several occasions since then and always with success. It might be termed an ‘‘electric cure,” and is operated as fol lows: Let the person afflicted hold out his or her hands just in front, the palms of the hands upward, the ends of the fingers turn ed sligntly up. Now let another person of the opposite sex hold his or her hands over the other ones, palms downward, then low er the hands till the tips of the fingers of each person lightly touches the wrist of the other. This complets the circuit. In a few seconds a prickling sensation will be felt by each person like a slight shock from a. galvanic battery, and the hiccoughs will stop. It may not be successful in ev ery case, but 1 have never seen it fail. Should you think tins deserving ot a space in you valuable paper, it might be the means of relieving some of this truly dis tressing ailment. g. C. February "Blue and Gray” out today.

Sylvester, Ga., l’’ebruary 11.—(Special.)— nile philosophers north and south are wrestling with the so-called race problem many ot the colored men of the south are solving me problem for themselves. Among the latter is Augustus Carter, who was freed bj- the civil war and now lives near Isabella. Like many of the ante-bel.um slaves, he has developed the thrift and energy ot his white neighbors, and made a useful and trustworthy citizen. He has raised a family of over twenty children and is, while now in his sixty-fourth yeal, hale and hearty and seems good for several years more. Five y.-ars ago he settled in the pinoy woods at his present home, and despite his age iias paid for his place, has two good mules and a year’s supply ahead and is building a handsome new residence. A singular fact in connection with his family is that his mother died at the age of eighty years with a full set of new teeth in her held that she had cut a few years previ ously. and h.’s little six-year-old grandchild recently had two complete rows of front teeth in her lower jaw, ane row of which was extracted by an Albany dentist last week.

Ths Old Veteran* of Tecamaeh’* Army, who Made an Excursion Through Here in ’O4» Want to Pay Another Visit. Bloomington, 111., February 13.—(Special.)— At the regular meeting of William T. Sher man Post, H 6, Grand Army of the Republic, of this city, tonight, the following resolu tions vere adopted unanimously and with great enthusiasm: “Resolved, That this post has learned with much pleasure that tl.e common council of Atlanta, Ga., a few 'weeks ago, passed unanimously a resolu tion making an appropriation and calling for the appontment of a committee to visit the annual national encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic this year at Pittsburg and formally Invite the veterans to hold their next annual encampment at Atlanta, and that the mayor, prominent citizens and the entire city press of At lanta, endorsed the resolutions in the most cordial manner. “ztesolved, That It is the sense and desire of this post that the Grand Army of the Republic shall accept the invitaion in the same spirit, with which it slutll be tendered, and that the luvtional encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic for 1895 shall be held at Atlanta, Ga.” v\ illiani T. Sherman post contains many very distingushed soldiers, among them ex- Governor Filer, of Illinois, and General John McNulta. The late General Giles A. Smith and W. W. Orme were members of the post. Os its four hundred or more members, fully one-half inarched with Sherman “from Atlanta to the sea.” “Its Influence Will He Far Reaching.” Ulysses S. Grant Post No. 28, Department of Illinois, G. A. R., 204 Dearborn Street, Chicago, February 8, 1894.—Editor Consti tution: I read in some of our papers of a little opposition to Atlanta for the encamp ment of 1895 because of the distance. That makes but little difference. Portland was off on one corner and Minneapolis and ’Frisco was as far away then as now. The crowds go all the same and we have glorious times. It’s in the atmosphere. When the invitation comes spontaneously the distance seems to vanish. Boston was a. good long journey, but say, from start to finish and back again it was one grand revelation. The atmosphere was freighted with patriotic feeling and hearty good will for the veterans, anti as we marched through their streets 75,000 strong to the music of 350 bands the sga of bright faceS amid the profuse decorations, the cheers, the waving of hanukerchiefs and tiny silk flags was a picture long to be remembered. Think ot it. The windows, temporary seats, the house-tops and the sidewalks literally packed witii people from 9 o’clock a. m. until 7 o’clock p. r.i. cheering on this mighty army of peace 75,000 strong. This scene was repeated in Washington in 1892, and I hope to see Its counterpart in Atlanta in 1895. We ought, to go to Atlanta. Hun dreds of thousands south of the Ohio de sire us to come. Nothing but a hearty welcome awaits us from the gallant men who served under Lee, Longstreet. Hamp ton. Johnson, Beauregard or Hood. The children, and the youths and maidens, who have heard so much of the blue and gray, who have heard so much of the Grand Army of the Republic wish to see these men who took part in the mighty strife so many years ago—men who came as enemies then, but as friends now. We were in our prime in 1862, now we are on the shady side, but as the shadows lengthen animosi ty grows dim. The Grand Army encamp ment at Atlanta in 1895 will bear object lesson of great value. Its influence will be far reaching for good. North and south will come together as before and vis ions of hostility and ma'ice and hate will vanish forever. Yours, etc., A. P. CONNOLLY. ATLANTA AND ST. PAUL. St. Patil, Minn., February 7, 1894. —Clark Howell. Editor Constitution. Dear Sir: Your telegram asking an expression concerning the meeting of the Grand Army of the Re public in Atlanta came while I was out of the city. 1 can assure you that (speaking both for Ths Globe and myself personally) nothing would give us greater pleasure than to see the Grand Army select Atlanta as Its place of meeting in 1895, provided it does not come to St. Paul. St. Paul is an ac tive and aggressive applicant to secure that notable gathering, and, most naturally, we most earnestly desire to obtain it lor our own locality. Wiide other candidates are in the field, I think the real contest lies between St. Paul and Atlanta, owing to their respective geo graphical localities. It is a friendly rivalry between a northern and a southern city, and the kindliest of feelings are entertain ed here towards Atlanta. 'Hie decision will, undoubtedly, very largely rest upon me question ot going south or coming north, and, whatever the result, it will be no re flection upon the hospitality or liberality of either of the contesting points. We hope to obtain it for St. Pau), and shall do our best; but (speaking for The Globe and myself) if we cannot secure it here, 1 can say we would most surely favor Atlanta. Atlanta has so many of the characteristics of St. Pau! that I much admire it. I can best emphasize my view by slating that when health considerations required, a por tion of my familj' spent two winters in that city, the stay being so delightful that, In one instance, it was prolonged for nearly a year, a residence on your famous Peach tree street being so charming that they were loath to leave. During my only brief visits, I was greatly impressed witii the enterprise of your citizens, as well as with the fact that your railroad lines make Atlanta a great distributing center. I per sonally know the hospitality of your peo ple, and if you succeed in the friendly con test with St. Paul, will extend you congrat ulations as hearty as though I were in a position to be an original Atlanta supporter. Very truly yours, N. P. HALL. Managing Editor St. Paul Globe. A Might cold, if neglected, often attacks the ungs. Brown’s Broxcuial Troches give sure and imniediate relief. Sold only in Loxes.

That was a graceful act on the part of the city council of Atlanta, Ga., in sending an invitation to the Grand Army of the Republic to make Atlanta the place of the annual grand encampment of 1895. It should be, and doubtless will be, received by the Grand Army of the Republic in the same fraternal spirit with which it was tendered. It will be exactly thirty years next May since tlie Second Minnestofa entered upon the Atlanta campaign by routing the ene my at Tunnel Hill, eighty miles to the north, followed by the evacuation of Dalton on the 12th and Resaca on the 15th. It will be thirty years on the 2d”iif next June when the Second Minnesota was ordered to the front to enter upon a continuous siege and succession of maneuvers and assaults, which did not end until the batter of Jonesboro on September Ist and the evacuation of Atlanta the next morning. Minnesota veter ans, who served under the gallant Thomas at Atlanta, could not think, we doubt not, of a more desirable spot for the annual en campment than the scene of the memorable 100 days’ siege—unless, of course, the en campment should come to Minnesota. If St. Paul desires the encampment, as inti mated in a recent committee circular, Min nesota will stand bv St. Paul. Next to St. Paul, Minnesota will elect the spot conse crated by the siege of Atlanta.

Walton News: Atlanta’s great exposition for 1895 promises to be a marvelous success. The interest and zeal of the best towns in the south are pledged to the enterprise, and from the first it is a go.

The serious mistake which so many peo ple make in the treatment of catarrh that chronic catarrh is regarded as a local disease, and not a systemic disease. If the patient has catarrh of the nose or throat, sprays and gargles are used; if the catarrh is in the larynx or bronchial tubes, inhal ents are used; if the catarrh is in the stom ach, medicine is swallowed, if the catarrh is in the bladder or urethra, injections are resorted to; hoping in each case to cure the disease by applying the medicine to the ex act spot where the disease is located. While it is a fact that sprays, inhalations, garbles and injections are often helpful in the treatment of a case of catarrh, they can never accomplish a cure. Catarrh is a dis ease of the system which manifests itself in some mucous membrane, oftenest of the nose, throat, bronchial tubes or lungs, but frequently of the stomach and bowels, and again of the urinary and sexual organs. A persistent use of Pe-ru-na according to the directions on the bottle will remove the ca tarrhal taint from the system, after which the diseased part, wherever located, will soon recover. That this is the correct the ory of thet reatment of catarrh is amply proven by - the multitude of testimonials that are constantly pouring in from all parts of the country. It is needless to attempt to give only' the vaguest outline of the wonaerful success wrich Pe-ru-na has met with in the cure of catarrh. This success is entirely due to the fact that Pe-ru-na eradicates the disease from the system, instead of temporarily relieving some disagreeable symptom. Not only is catarrh in all stages and varieties cured promptly, but also colas, coughs, bionchitis, la grippe, catarrhal dyspepsia, all yield, surely and permanently to the curative virtues of Pe-ru-na. A valuable treatVe on catarrh by Dr. Hartman sent free to any address by the Pe-ru-na Drug Manufacturing Company, of Columbus, O. t A TUl’.llnsa SCENE. A Cable Car Suspended SOO Foot Above the lUver. A^?° XViiie ’, Tcnn > February 18.—(Special.' n,?? a . e bc:ow on the Ten is a hign bluff, known lot Cherokee bl uff. but more recent.y hil > . 1 1 “ Street b '«“ts. The bluff anc i U behind it is owned by the Unaka Park n'p? l ?- 17, whi ? h Planned to establish a pa. ground there. niie e at that point ls one-fourth of a mlu b!oad ana very deep. The bluff is io aUt ’ Vu the water, out the opposite bank is only about twenty feet high. As s-inih ;ti Ul transit from the north to the h1 f the rlver the park company nas ii oa ea up a unique contrivance calico c::b ! 3 car - Two heavy wire cab.es a !.°.J c 1 S c ‘‘ e 4 across the river four feet t l :■ 7 '\ uh both ends firmly fastened in the earth. On these cables is suspended nv. fee J Wl ' le and twenty feet long aft-Ah i to ? of . tbe car running wheels are attached, traveling on the cables. The tor I car IS somewhat like tne floor of a lamoad car turned upside down. Attached to toe car is another smal er cable which lulls through a pulley on the bluff and is wound around a drum in the engine house on the north side of the river. The locomo tive plan of the road is like that of an in clined cable road. A suspended car is equipped with automatic brakes and thus ‘be conductor and engineer can control it. - he.-'e details are necessary to understand the accident, for the.- whole contrivance is strange, and is the only passenger aerlaj line in the United States. The Cable Breaks. This afternoon the car was running as usual and a large number of passengers had been carried over. About 4 o’clock six people entered the car, including one young lady. The trip was made safely until the car was wituin two or three feet of the bluff, when a loud popping sound was heard in the engine house and the pulling cable began to run out with great velocity. The engineer was not much alarmed, for he thought the brake would stop the car. which it did within thirty or forty feet o! the bluff. The proper forethought had noi been given the action of the small cable. This is, of course, doubled, and the weight of the cable was pulling it through the pulleys with great rapidity. The cable is tarred to prevent slipping and great flares ot flame shot out around the car. Suddenly there was a crash and the car was seen to rock from side to side and then the hor rifii.-d spectators saw the planks shoot out and down as if the car was falling to pieces The broken end of the cable had struck the end of the car and knocked it in. When the smoke from the burning tar ha' cleared away ft was seen that the car was at an angle of at least 45 degrees and that the passengers were clinging to the window frames, the sides and the upper end of the car with the energy of despair. Their po sition was most perilous, for they were sus pended over the river at a height of not less than 200 feet. The Work of Rosene. The employes of the company pulled themselves together as quickly as they could, and, shouting to the passengezs iC keep tip their courage, they jumped .n a boat, pulled across the river and c.imbeo the precipitous bluff, appearing soon at the other end of the cable, bearing a long coil of rope. One end was thrown over the ca ble and slid down to the ear. It was then doubled over the end, iallirtt to the river, where, in the boat, was a larger rone and a heavy block and tackle. XX'hen this had been milled up to the c; r the work of rescue was begun. A loop was made and placing a. foot in it four of the passengers reached the boat in safety. Oliver Ledgerwood Killed. But a man and woman were left, and a negro man stepped in the loop to bring them down. When he reached the car it was readily seen that the horrors were not all over. A body was handed out that was limp and helpless. It was Oliver Ledger wood, a you::;: la v. ye;- and politician, of this citv. in his temple was a horrible wound and his face was battered and torn, lie di< 1 b re he c< ul Ibe br< tight to the city. Miss Waddell, who had accompanied him on the trip, was rescued also, and was the coolest pe on in the party % A boy <on the bank, Hugh Rule, was also wounded by the trailing cable. Examination of the parted cable leads some tn believe that it had been cut, but this belief is not shared by a great many people. This is the second accident on this line, th-- other not being fatal. The matter was investigated bv a coro nc-'s jury, who returned a verdict that the accident was due to negligence of the com pany. DOUBLE LY NCHING IN ALABAMA. Two Negroes Strung Up I(n <l Shot.
