RACED AGAINST A FUSE
■
A writer ia the Washington Stai
givas his experience in tha coal mines
during the strike. He says: The tw<
days I spent in the Hocking Valle)
taught me a lesson in regard to tin
miners being thoroughly reckless .
There was a coal train coming uj
the valley, the engineer, fireman aud
trainmen being known to every om
of the little bind of strikers that hat
collected at a wooden bridge ovei
which t'.e train must pass. The train
men had not received orders to quit
aud were gritty and ha.l determined
to put the train through.
beveral militiameu were on the
tram aud kept back the strikers.
Abous a quaiter of a mile down the
line from the bridge the strikers hall
ed the train and told the engineer
that he must not pull that tram
through. He arid he would.
Come down, Jim. sang oat one ol
the striker , we ail know you too weij
to harm you Come down. We Lave a
keg of powder on that bridge up there
and when the boys see yon coining
they are going to light the fuse,
All right,replyed the engineei ;I’ve
promised to pull this train through,
and through she got s
With these words he opened the
throttle and the train dashed on, The
strikers saw the train coining and
lighted the fuse. I held mv brsath in
dismay, waiting for the shock as the
train reached the bridge. On and over
it went, and ae the last car cleared
the structure, bang! went the powder
and the bridge was blown to atone.
The fuse was a quarter of eu inch too
long,

Announcement
' TO THE PEOPLE
of GEORGHA
AND OF THE SOUTHEAST
THE ATLANTA CONSTITUTION make* an announcement of more than ordinary Inter
est. Bv special arrangement with the publishers of that greatest of all reference libraries, The Ency
clopredia Britannica, ninth (latest) edition, we are enabled for a short time to place this King of Booki
within easy reach of every reader. This edition is bound tn
2§ ROYAL OCTAVO VOLUMES
And is the only complete and unabridged edition of this great work In existence revised Ito date. That
some sort of an Encyclopa-dia is a necessity, all must acknowledge. That the Great Britannica Is the
very best Encyclopedia, none will deny. Only Its great cost —Sus for the Scribnor Edition, saoo for
the Edinburgh Edition—has prevented its purchase heretofore. At these prices none but tne rich could
afford to own it. We offer for a limited time to the readers of The CONSTITUTION ar. edition superior
even to the costly Edinburgh Edition at the unheard of Introductory rate of
TEN CENTS A DAY
For this small outlay you can secure these a8 Royal octavo volumes, complete and unabridged,
revised to date. The Britannica itself needs no endorsement. For ny years It has stood the crowning
work of our English language, the noblest work In all literature, the one only adequate representative of
the advanced thought and scholarship of the world. It Isthe only Encyclopedia inwhich each principal
subject is treated by an acknowledged authority upon that subject. No other Encyclopaedia has glv-n
Ten Thousand Dollars for a single articla, nor Six Hundred Dollars a page foe written matter. Iby
fact that
> sJ,o(o>o 9 o<o>o
Was expended In Its preparation, requiring the labor of a.ooo of the world's greatest scholars, tells the
story of its exalted superiority. Over 600 American authors were employed on American subjects and
American Instltu’lons. _
THE EDBTDON WE OFFER
To our readers comprises many features worthy of special mention.
1. A thorough equipment of new maps up to date, costing Sjo.ooo to produce.
a. The American Copyrighted Articles, rewritten to date, by eminent American writers. In other
respects this Edition is word for word, line for line, page for page, identical with the expensive Edin
burgh Edition, costing SB.OO per volume.
j. But the crowning feature of this Edition Is Its American Additions and Revisions, prepared under
the suf ervision of that widely known Encyclopaedic Editor, W. H. DEPUY, D.D., LL. D., assisted by
a corps of Trained writers, thoroughly revising the entire work to date.
Not only are ail Scientific and Historical Subjects brought absolutely up to sate, but a vast fund
of new information Is added, relating to the material, social, industrial and educational progress of the
world, together with many thousand New Biographies not in the original Edition nor In any other Ency
clopaedia.
FOR A SHORT TBHE
This elegant Reference Library will be offered to subscribers of THE ATLANTA CONSTITU
TION at remarkably low introductory prices, and on terms so easy as to seem almost ludicrous.
There are four styles of binding, and all styles have double-hinged, flexible backs, sewed precisely
like an Oxford Teacher's Bible, so that they are durable and convenient. It is an actual fact that
this book is more strongly bound than the Edition which Is sold for SB.OO per volume.
Upon application we will send you description and prices of the various styles, and you may select
any style of binding you choose and have the privilege of paying for it at the rate of 10 cents a day,
half the set being delivered to vou at once: or. we will deliver the entire set of 28 volumes on paymeat
of $5.00 per month. All charges paid by us to any railroad station in the United States.
