RACED AGAINST A FUSE ■ A writer ia the Washington Stai givas his experience in tha coal mines during the strike.

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.

In a little backwoods town iu Pennsylvania,ssid a drummer who was spinning yarns, an exhibition day was being held, and the class was going through its sprouts, The teacher asked if any of the schol ars could tell what State they were in, and promptly got the answer Pennsylvania. Then she asked what was the greatest city iu the State and the answer came correctly—, Philadelphia. w * * * Then she asked if any of the lie children could tell what build ing there was in the city of Phila delphia immediately connected with the history of this country, uid at the mention of the name of which every patriotic Americans heart would leap with pride,mean ing of course, Independence Hall. She got no answer, aud the class .vas stumpe' 1 until finally a little Hebrew boy over in the corner rais •d hia hand and said he could tell.

Fo a<de by J, T. Crouch I I G , Announcement ' TO THE PEOPLE of GEORGHA AND OF THE SOUTHEAST THE ATLANTA CONSTITUTION make* an announcement of more than ordinary Inter est.

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.
