Editorial Mang’r. entered at Atlanta P. O. as second-class matter. Ice is a necessity in summer. Icb at 85 cents a hundred is a dear lux- ury. Athens has an interesting revival on hand. The Congressional races in each district are getting interesting. Icb in small quantities in the city is 75 and 85 cents a hundred pounds Tub President does not use the plural pronoun in conversation with ease yet. The threatened mill strike at Augusta has been averted by the overseer in the troublesome room resigning. Thk canvass in England, now that Par liament has been dissolved, will, for the next few weeks, be a warm one. There is considerable talk in the city over the necessity for a central office to record births, deaths and marriages. M. Pasteur is waiting for some one else to get bitten so that he can prove the efficacy of his wonderful inoculation pro cess. A stock company of $50,000 capital to deal in ice and deliver it at reasonable prices over the city would be a paying one. Intkrest intase ball is waning in At lanta. The crowds are very light and there are not more than a dozen ladies in attendance. Atlanta has four times as many street railway companies now, than she had three years ago. One newline is now be ing built out to Grant Park. Wiiv does not some enterprising Arms put out a few ice delivery wagons ? They are needed badly outside the centre of the •city. The business would prove very j>r< fltable. A good brass band is a necessity to a city like this, and now that we have the Atlanta Capitol band with a distin guished leader, let the public support and encourage it liberally. Captain Mani.ky, of the police force, must be very proud of the circulation giv en his picture by a patent medicine. There is hardly a paper in the SouQi that has not had it, together with quantities of praisesand compliments. • BATH •FchTEbBKN. Cannot medical skill have some control over the nearly always fatal disease of dysentery ? When children get sick with this dread ful disease it is seldom that they get up again. We do not wish to alarm any one, nor do we wish to complain of the skill of the physicians, for in the one case, taking the death records of the city into considera tions, there are not as many deaths this year as last, and in the other case we pre -auuie that scores of children may have been sick with this disease and getting well again quickly, their cases did not come under our observation. But a great many bright little children of the city have fallen a victim to its rav ages, hence we ask, can not medical skill arrest the progress of tins malady. We hope that medical skill will be pointed towards this disease successfully, and that fewer homes will be left desolate by the losses of loved little ones. ECLECTIC NIBDICINE. The great assemblage of eclectic physi cians in Atlanta from all parts of the country has awakened the interest of the people, especially the entire medical pro fession. This method of practicing medicine eclecticism, or, in other words, the reform system of medicine—is fast taking ast rong hold throughout the country. There are but few people who understand this branch of materia medica. Since investigating their purposes more closely we are confident that if the public will only inquire into eclecticism they will see the beauties of this profession of medicine and the great injustice that is being done them. Eclecticism is claimed by eclectics to embrace all that is valuable in materia medica. and that they propose to do away with that which is inert and administer and apply those agents that are effective ’in direase, and thus carry out their motto “viles vitales suetenetes.'’ This profession takes a great pride in introducing and p’acing before the public new remedies, and to them is due credit the discovery of some of the best new medicines of to-day. They were said to have produced the Gelsiminum, the Belladonna, the Cocaine and many others of the best recent dis coveries. They claim, with some reason, that their system of practice is the most suc- THB EVENING CAPITOL: ATLANTA. GA.

They give a medicine that is especially adapt ed to, and will meet the different symp toms. Whether their claim is just we would not say. Aimmg the first eclectic physicians are John M. Scudder, A. M. M. D., I. J. M. Goss, A. M. M. D., John Ling, M. I), and Alexander Wilder, A. M. M. I)., and their efforts for eclecticism have been untiring and unlimited. The Eclectic medical college of this city (formerly of Macon) is a noble institution, and is a great help to this system through out the country, and their class increases yearly. The prospect at present predicts a great future" for this profession. The body of men now in convention as sembled in the city will do much for this branch of medicine, and while we extend to them a most cordial welcome to the city we express with it the wish that they may succeed by this convention in dis seminating more liberally their principles and thus become better known. CAPITOL CRAYONS. Tat special services of las Sunday for chil dren was generally observed all over the Union. Tnx question is asked, does the amount of money bet have anything to do with the um pire’s decision ? PatHintsT Cleveland says be is in hurry to close up his work in Washington and to hie away to the Adirondacks for the summer. Don’t speak ill of even an enemy. A hasty word creates lots of trouble. If you can pos sibly hunt up a redeeming feature speak of that rather than in criticism. Col. David A. Bailkt, of Griffin, has been suggested as a man for the Senatorial honors of his district. He is an honorable, upright, true citizen, and would serve his district with fidel ity- In the Augusta city council Monday a Mr. Lofiin offered the following amendment which was adopted: “Resolved, That the resolution of January sth be now made of full force, and that the new gas company bo allowed to come into the city with full rights and privileges with old gas company.” Augusta will now get a reduction in gas rates, Gen. Sherman has shaken off the dust of St. Louis, and taken up bis residence in New York. One reason given for his retnoval from St. Louis is that the newspapers made it very un pleasant for him by their persistent quizzing and misrepresentations. There is positively no accounting for tastes. A farmer in Condon, Neb., advertises for a wife and stipulates that she must be about 6 feet tall, weigh 250 pounds, have red hair, and be an atheist. This is the worst specimen of Nebraa kality we have over read of—even discounts grasshopper blizzards. Col. Richard M. Hoi, the foremost man in the world in the development of the printing press, died suddenly from heart disease at Florence, Italy, on Monday evening. By the application of his great inventive genius to the art of printing, he has been one of the world’s greatest benefactors. The guard was withdrawn from President Garfield’s tomb last Monday. Lieut. Edwards, who was in charge of the detachment, is re ported to have said: “If the ooffin is kept in the vault without a guard the relic hunters will chip the vault away and reach the casket within a month.” The Edmunds Utah bill, which passed the Senate early in the session, has mot with deter mined opposition from the powerful Mormon lobby in the House, and there is little hope of its being adopted at the present session. The Mormons profess to be Democrats, and have been using this for all it is worth to delay con sideration of any anti-Mormon bill in the House. Samuel G. Craig, a stalwart colored citizen of New York city, has made application for ap pointment on the police force, but the New York Sun says that even if he should pass his examination creditably, it seems to be assured that he would have no chance of being appoint ed. The color line is evidently more closely defined in New York city than in any Southern city. Electric Light. The proper thing to do now is to put a light at the artesian well on raised poles over the water tank, which, from its favorable loca tion aud great height, would give light to a great distance down some tine streets. Let there be more light. Scwiped. , A newspaper reporter in talking with a man who had been scalped, elicited the following in formation: “It is a dreadful sensation,” he said. “One thinks, as the skin is being torn from the skull, that his feet are coming right up through his body to the top of his head. Oh, it is terrible It is so painful that you cannot utter a cry, and thousands of stars dance before your eyes. You imagine red hot needles are darting in and out of your flesh, and yen clasp your hands so closely that the finger nails cut into the flesh. I would rather be run through a threshing ma chine, ground up in a sausage mill, or thrown under a locomotive than ever undergo such an ordeal. It makes me shudder to think of the tortures I have gone through with, and I never want to look upon the face of another Indian." An interesting special special from Colonel Avery, who is in Athens, will be found else where. The Delectalave Company of the city are on a regular boom. Delectalave is endorsed by eminent physicians. Tie socialistic and bombastic speeches, as reported in our telegraphic clipping, indicate a strange state of affairs. Sixes Hon. R. B. Nesbit has entered the Con gressional race in the Sth District Capt. Henry Carlton has withdrawn. Tbi Home, 14T Marietta, ask for any surplus of milk or vegetables that any charitably dis posed person may have. They have some siek children who need these things. W i hope that now that Cal Yarnedoe has been freed from a five years imprisonment, that he will in the future live a true upright life and snake himself loose from all former asso ciates and habits. His father, one of the best men in Georgia, has worked untiringly for his son’s release. Indian Spring*. Indian Springs is one of the most beautiful spots in the country. The Elder House is situated right on the rise of the hill just away from the springs at a pleas ant walking distance from it. The whole place is covered with lovely, majestic old shade trees that make everything cool and comfortable. From the present outlook, the Elder House will have a big run of trade for the summer, and ought to have. You can get there the sweetest fried chickens in the State, the freshest of veg etables, and the many luxuries obtainable only in a country place like the Spring. Rising in the morning you stroll down to the springs an 1 get a cool draught of the healthiest, purest, most invigorating of waters, and when you return to the house your appetite is keen and sharp. After a hearty breakfast you stroll out in some of the shady dells about the place, or over on the square, or sit in some of the nu merous settees under the trees and enjoy all there is of life to enjoy. Everybody who goes to the Elder speaks in the highest terms of the treatment received, and they could not do otherwise, for your every want is supplied, and a good number of genial companions are always sojourning there to make the time pass more pleasantly. A good band has been engaged, and altogether everything possible, as in the past, will be done for the comfort and pleasure of visitor s. CAPITOL- SALMAGUNDI. One of the Rev. Sam Jones critics says “he owns a farm near Cartersville—his wife and children ride in a carriage drawn by good horses ” Suppose that is true, what minister does more hard work ? Mr. Jones preaches generally eighteen or twenty sermons a week, and dur ing a month preaches as many as most other ministers do in a year. Should such a man’s family be compelled to ride in a cart drawn by a pair of spavined mules? According to a New York medical journal one-half of the adult men in America living in our cities are bald headed. M. Goudon is about to compose an opera fonnded on the story of Fleloise and Abelard, it will ba brought out in Paris in 1889. A Texas paper describes a recent rainstorm as “a regular root-soaker and gulley washer.” The vernacu lar of the Lone Star State is expressive. Thb Boston Society of Architects is trying to raise $5,000 for the erection of a monument in Trinity church in that city to the memory of the architect, the late Mr. Richardson. Mr. Elliott Stock has secured the wood-work of th room in the house at Dumfries in which Robert Burns died, and will transform it into beck-covers for an edi tion of the poet’s works. Crystallized violets at six dollars a pound are the latest things iu confectionery. Candied rose leavel are also very popular. Girls like to eat flowers and will pay as high as ten dollars a pound for some of the more expensive kinds. Thej are all brought from France. Mme. Minnie Hauk has let her Swiss castle for the season to a Russian family and will spend the summer in this country. One condition made in the lease re quires that the stars and stripes shall t e constantly kept flying from the towers of “Minpingen.” Th* poet preacher, the Rev. George W. Crofts, of Council Bluffs, formerly pastorMf the Congregation Church of Sandwich, contributed the following sonnet to a joyours occasion : to hettie and will. Out of the ruddy East beamed forth the sun And saw a dew-drop sparkling od a rose, Then swiftly to its side it sped and close, And whispered low, “ Dew-drop, let us be one! ” As by some magic force a bird begun To waken all the orchards from repose, Trilling a song to that bright flame that glows All hearts within, as rivers seaward run : Then blushed the blooming flowers, and shyly glanced, The air its golden wings with fragrance filled, And warmer still, and brighter «hone the sun, As o’er the sighing leave* it shimmering danced And laughed. It found at last the dew sweet-willed. And drew it gently up, and they were one. Geo. W. Crofts. Council Bluffs, June 10. OUR GEORGIA EDITORS. Quaint Nations and Witty Quips of Th* State Press Leaders. B. H. RICHARDSON. The daily newspapers of New Orleans have abolished the custom of redeeming unsold copies. The proprietors had their suspicions aroused lately that they were being systematically robbed. An investi gation was instituted, and it was found that a number of dealers had established routes on which they rented papers at a reduced price, instead of selling them. They delivered the papers in the morning, gathered them up in the evening and re turned them to the office and had them redeemed. It was also found that by a trick in folding a number of papers in a bundle they were counted two or more times, so that a package supposed to con tain a hundred really contained only sev enty-five. The newsboys, it is stated, at tempted to “boycott” the papers because of their determination not to redeem pa pers, but the movement failed. A. L. HARRIS. Since the practical settlement of the labor troubles a better tone and more hopeful business feeling has been estab lished throughout the country. There has, however, been little increase in ac tivity at the seaboard ports, while in the interior some of the large business centers have shown a slight improvement in the movement, which is attributed to the ac cumulation of supplies and orders, owing to the recent interruptions in traffic. AU the country is healthier and shows more life, but no more briskness is observable anywhere yet, probably owing to the lack of speculative feeling aud close hand-to hand policy, which the recent past has rendered most people accustomed to, but which will insure a strong and sound foundation for the business expected this fall. J. H. ESTILL. Savannahians are pining for a boat or a train or something that will carry them to the beach these hot afternoons. The prospects are that they will not be sur feited with sea bathing this summer. For the past week or two the few ques tions of State policy involved in the cam paign have been discussed in an able and unimpassioned manner. It has been seen that the personalities indulged in have been the poorest sort of campaign materi al. and they have been dropped. This is well. It would have been almost infinite ly better had they never been resorted to at all. The good counsel of the Morning News and its conservative contemporaries throughout the State has accomplished a wonderful amount of good.

Important Announcement to the Public. The “Baltimore Syndicate” takes this means of informing the public that it has decided in order to meet the wishes of a considerable num ber of persons who have heretofore negotiated with the company for the purchase of homes, to modify the terms of payment so as to bring the purchase of its elegant homes within the reach of a larger number of the people than the terms heretofore established permitted. To this end it now announces that it will sell any of its homes upon the cash payment of SSOO and permit the balance of the purchase money to be paid in monthly instalments. THE BALTIMORE PLACE HOUSES. These elegant residences need not be dp scribed in detail. They are so generally well known that to enter into a description of their plan, with the innumerable comforts incident to their construction, their healthfulness, compac tion of arrangement, their high temperature in winter and low temperature in summer; the completeness of their sanitary arrangements aud the dozen and one features which can alone be appreciated by practical use, to describe which in detail would occupy more space than is necessary or the limits of this communication will permit. It is sufficient to say here that Nos. 9, 11, 13,15, 17 and 19 of the block are for sale. Either of these can be purchased for $3,500 subject to a ground seat of sllO redeemable at any time within a 1000 years. The ground rent system is universal in the North, is the secret of almost every merchant and mechanic owning his home, without which this ownership might be impossible. We prefer to sell in fee. Every purchaser thus far has purchased subject to a ground rent. The fact that he can carry a re deemable ground rent at so low a rate of inter est as 5 per cent, which is all he pays, is the se cret why every one thus far has purchased sub ject to a ground rent. At all events the compa ny will sell either in fee or otherwise just as the purchaser may desire. Now a few words about the business part of the transaction. The com pany will sell any of the houses above mentioned tor $3,500, subject to a ground rent of sllO per annum. It will take SSOO cash, and will allow the remaing $3,000 to be paid in monthly instal ments of S4O, with six per cent interest on the deferred payments, interest ceasing on each payment as made. It will take, say, seventy two months, or just six years to pay off the bal ance of purchase money at S4O per month. Now let us see what the total annual charges are: Twelve monthly payments S4BO One year’s ground rentllo “ average interest 90 “ tax 72 “ insurance 5 Total lor one years7s7 It will be observed that every charge of every kind is included in the above. Now let us see for a moment what the actual strain is on the purchaser, and that after all is the true and proper test which one must apply to himself in testing his or her ability to pur chase. We have seen that the total annual charges of every kind and character aggregate per annum $757, or $63 per month. Now the purchaser during the time that he is making these payments and securing his invest ment is at the same time securing its fruits, for he is occupying the house and thus saving the rent that he would otherwise pay. Now put ting the rental value of these houses at $45 per month (and they are generally conceded to be worth SSO) he ought, injustice to bis purchase, deduct the rental value from the total annual charges, for until he owns his home, the rental value should be deducted. The calculation would accordingly stand thus: Total annual charges 757 00 ■ Annual {rental value 540 00 Annual strain on purchaser . 217 00 It will thus be seen that the annual strain on the resources of the purchaser are just $217 or SIB.OO per month. In other words, the purchaser of one of these houses as compared to a tenant paying $45 per month rent is just SIB.OB per month more to pay than the tenant, and in consideration of said payment the purchaser gets back every month S4O clean and clear as a credit on his bal ance as purchase money. lie pays SIB.OB a month more, and at the end of six years has bis home, whereas the tenant, as above illustrated, has just exactly seventy-two rent receipts, and liable to be kicked out if he should fail to pay the seventy-third. Let us now go a step farther and FIND OUT WHAT THE HOUSE ACTUALLY COSTS the purchaser. His first payment wass 50# Six years, $217 each 1,302 Total costsl,Bo2 These figures may seem remarkable and their accuracy may perhaps be doubted by some. It is sufficient to say in reply, that the company is prepared to guarantee their correctness. It will thus be seen, that the people of Atlan ta have here presented an opportunity of which it may truly be said is unprecedented in any city in this country. There is no clap trap about this announcement. The figures are given and their accuracy guaranteed by a com pany of responsibility.' Bring your architect with you and let him aid you in making an inspection of the property and ask him for an honest dispassionate judg ment. Ask him what it would cost you to du plicate the house, in hard cash. And after you nave asked him these questions and have re ceived a satisfactory answer, then go and ask snch well known and respected citizens as Dr. Brockett, Colonel Goldsmith, A. P. Tripod, Col. Avery, I. C Bandmann, Capt. Rust, all of whom have lived in the res pective houses which they have purchased, from two to eleven months, and ask them and their wives and their visiting relatives and friends whether they are delighted with their purchases. The writer is sure that there is not one but what is charmed with his purchase. Ask them what temperature they experienced last summer, and they will be apt to tell you that their homes were charmingly cool. Ask them whether they suffered from the severe cold of the past winter, and they will tell you that, if anything, their houses were at times too warm. In brief, ask them, if you choose, whether you ought to buy or not, and act accord ingly- SPRING STREET OR “PARK PLACE” HOUSES. There are six houses left for sale on Spring street: No. 1 has been sold to Miss Hanna; No. -6 to Wm. A. Wimbish; No. 7 to James A. Gray; No. 13 to Mrs. Fannie McCandless. Nos. 3, 11, 15, 17 and 10 are still for sale. These houses will be sold for $2,350, ground rent S9O, redeemable at any time. SSOO cash, balance in monthly payments of S3O. Total annual char ges: Twelve monthly paymentss36o 00 Ground rent 90 00 Average interest 55 50 Tax 33 75 Insurance 4 50 Total annual chargess43 75 Or about $45 per month. No one who has seen these homes will hesitate to admit that they are cheap at S3O per month rent. Assuming this to be true the actual cost of the house would be as follows: Total annual chargess 543.75 Annual rental value 360.00 Annual strain $ 183.75 As it will take a little less than 62 months to pay off the balence of purchase money, the ac count will stand like this: Cash payments 500.00 $183.75 per year lor 5 years and 2 months.... 949.37 Total cost of house $1,449.37 These figures must be their own demonstra tion. It would be downright supererogation to attempt to give them additional force by fur ther argument or illustration. The man who can’t, after due reflection, un derstand their force and potency ought not to bother bis brain about buying a home, but ought to continue as a tenant. The company hopes, after having made these conces sions, to be able to at once dispose of its remaining houses. In two or three years they will doubtless be worth half again as much. Every indication shows that these houses are situated in the earning residence sec tion of the city. No portion of the city has such a beautiful prospect before it. Whether there be any ad vance or not, there will surely be no retrogression. So that a purchaser Dot only secures a home for his family in away that can hardly strain his resources, but he has in addition an incentive to save, coupled with the fact that he is securing an investment which affords him •▼try reasonable expectation that after it Is onee paid for it will be worth more than the origin*! purchase money, to say nothing of the years of rent that he has saved to himself and family.

For over two vears I suffered intensely with muscular rheumatism. I became al most helpless, and had to be helped fre quently out of bed. At times I was unable to turn myself in bed, and had to be han dled as tenderly as an infant. My body, from my waist up, was involved, and the pain was intolerable at times. All the old and well-known remedies were ex hausted, but no permanent relief was ob tained. About a year ago I was in duced by a friend to try Swift’s Specific. The effect has been magical. My friends scarcely recognize me. My rheumatism is entirely gone, my general health is superb, and I am weighing thirty pounds more than when I commenced taking S. S.
