The enterprising people of Atlanta,
the (late C ity and future metropolis of
the south, have long been joyously cer­
tain of the complete realization of their
creams of a great and wonderful exposi­
tion within their borders. Only a few
days ago they received a rather interest­
ing proof that the people of the whole
country share in their expectation. This
proof came in the form of information
that all sorts of itinerary shows are now
gradually moving toward Atlanta—
working their way, so to speak— in or­

The story that theDnke of Y'ork some
years ago contracted a morganatic mar­
riage w ith the daughter of an English
admiral has been jK-rsistently revived
nntil at last it has called forth an official
denial. The Prince of W ales’ secretary
wrote a letter to a private inquirer last
week saying:
“ I am desired by the Prince of Wales
to state that the report to which yon al­
lude is so obviously invented for the
mere purpose of causing pain and an­
noyance to an innocent young couple
that his royal highness has always de­
clined to allow the story to obtain fur­
ther currency by any contradiction from
him. There is of course not the shadow
of foundation for it. but it is none the
less cruel and m alignant.”
A rattier unsatisfactory denial from
the archbisohp of Canterbury is also
printed. The story continues to be cir­
culated and believed. I have even been
approached by the pretended possessor
of the woeful secret, who was anxious
lor a consideration to arrange for an in­
ter view w ith the discarded w ife at her
residence, S t John's Wood.— Loudon

GOIN’O TO TH E GROUNDS,
ing the contiunance o f the exposition.
A t first blush it may not occur to you,
reader, that this is a very important sign
o f public interest, but it is, since noth­
ing fcnt continuous talking of the com­
ing Atlanta show by the people a ll along
the line conld induce the tent showmen
to travel >n such numbers toward this
one point.
There is now every reason to conclude
that the Atlanta exposition w ill he a
really great affair. In the first place, it
w ill represent the investment o f consid­
erably more than t2.000.000, and this
vast sum is being laid ont most judici­
ously and w ith such economy, i f the
term may he nsed, as to produce the
very best and must striking results. It
is hoped by the Atlantans themselves
tha* their show w ill be larger and supe­
rior in every w ay to any previous expo­
sition ever held in the United States,
b a rin g only the W orld’s fairs at P h ila­
delphia and Chicago. Certainly those in
charge have bent a ll their energies to­
ward producing this laudable result,
aud the popular interest in the project is
w e ll indexed by the fact that every Sun­
day people visit the grounds in such
large numbers to inspect tiie work and
comment upon the progress made that
the trolley cars are crowded beyond all
precedent. This weekly visit to the ex­
position’s site has now become so gen­
eral that most other Sunday resorts of
Atlanta are practically deserted, greatly
to the discomfiture of their proprietors.
The selection o f the Piedmont D riv­
ing park as the site o f the exposition
was undoubtedly an exceedingly wise
move, since the driving park grounds
aie spacious, accessible and of great nat­
ural beauty. T o this latter feature the
exposition authorities are adding mate­
rially by laying out driveways, creating
artificial sheets of water and plant­
ing many ornamental shrnlis and trees.
The buildings, as is plainly discernible
even now, w ill be o f a most impressive
and really satisfactory character. The
gates w ill open on Sept, 18 and remain
open for 90 days. A n average daily a t­
tendants* of 15,000 at 50 cents admission
fee w ill hardly pay all the cost, bnt an
attendance o f 17,000 w ill leave a mar­
gin, and o f course every effort w ill be
made to bring it up to those figures.
The railroads centering at Atlanta are
doing all in their power to assist in this.
Only tine of them, however— the South­
ern, w ith its thousands of miles of track
extending all through the south— w ill
be allowed the privilege of entering the
grounds with its tracks. But all the
great railroads have agreed upon a uni­
form fare of 1 cent a mile, and besides
the stea-rsL’ p lines along the Atlantic
roast have m tde special concessions, and
the Pacific M ^il and Steamship company
ha.- agreed to transport the exhibits of
Central and South Am erica from aud to
all points reached by its lines and to
make reductions in fares to government
officials aud others who desire to visit
ihe fair.
At present the energies o f the mana­
gers are centering upon the bnildings.

T o the energy, enthusiasm ar.d geniuR
of Mr. Charles A. Collier, president and
director general, the Atlanta exposition
of 1895 w il’ , more than to any other
man, owe its success. He was born in
Atlanta 47 years ago, played as a boy
in vacant fie ds now covered w ith state­
ly business structures, handsome resi­
dences aud busy public buildings; passed
his youth amid the scenes of the c iv il
w ar; took tbe collegiate training afford­
ed by the University of Georgia, and
was admitted to the bar in 1871. A fter
some years of devotion to the legal pro­
fession he entered mercantile life, and
his success i t this and the field of finan­
ciering has been notable. He was the
projector of the first Piedmont exposi
tion, e nd it was very largely to his e f­
forts that its remarkable success was
due. But 1C4 days were left after the
enterprise was agreed upon before the
fair was to open, bnt so rapid and sure
were the operations directed by Mr.
Collier that everything was ready when
the gates were opened, aud tho enterprise
proved a winner from the first day to
the last, completely performing the
functions for which it was organized—
viz, exploiting throughout the country
the enterprise o f Atlanta and the re­
sources of the south.
The Atlanta exposition of 1895 w ill
have a "M id w a y plaisance,” thongli it
w ill not be called by that name. It w ill
be conveniently located upon a lieauti-
fnl terrace, and its attractions, it is ex­
pected, w ill be as diversified as were
those of the M idway plaisance of the
Chicago show. Various titles have been
suggested, among them D ixie terrace,
Midway terrace, etc. There w ill also
be Japanese, Mexican. Indian, Swiss
aud other villages, and, in fact, about
every sort of attraction that the mind
of man can invent and the energy and
enthusiasm of President Collier can se­
cure.

A n interesting discovery has just been
made by a contributor to a French peri­
odical, who has apparently a touch of
superstition in his character concerning
numbers. Whether or no he believes in
the mysterious and uncanny influence
of number 18 is not stated, but he points
ont that the unfortunate President Car­
not was throughout his life under the
influence, so to say, of the figure 7.
He was born in 1837 and entered the
Ecole Polytechniqne in 1857. He be­
came president o f the republic in 1887
by virtue of the seventh article of the
constitution. On the 17th o f May in the
present year lie presided at the cente­
nary fetes at the Ecole Polytechniqne.
He died in the fifty-seventh year of his
age and in the seventh year o f his presi­
dency.
In the carriage in which he was seat­
ed when assassinated there were, in­
cluding the driver, etc., seven persons,
the crime being committed ou a Sun­
day, the seventh day o f the week, by
Cesario, an Italian, there being respec­
tively seven letters in these two words.
T o conclude this list of sevens, it is
pointed out that M. Carnot’s remains
were laid in the tomb in the seventh
month of the year and on the seventh
day after the murder was committed.
It might, be added that Cesario came
from Cette to commit it, and that the
pronunciation of Cette and sept (seven)
is identical. — London Standard.

“ W h o is Hogan?” is a question which
has troubled prison officers at the south­
ern Illinois penitentiary for years.
Hogan is the brightest convict, intellec­
tually, in the prison and and is one of
the most valuable because o f his versa
tility. lute-rest in Hogan has increased
m aterially since Governor Altgelel, a
few days ago, commuted his sentence
from 48 to 21 years, aud on next Christ­
inas eve Hogan w ill transplant his ta l­
ents to more congenial surroundings.
Thomas Hogan, “ P egg y ” Ryan and a
man named Pritchard were beating
their way across the country in 1873,
and one day in September they boarded
a ( liicago and Alton freight train in
Greene county, uear Carrollton, and
found several other tramps in posses­
sion. A tight ensued. During the melee
one of the tramps was thrown from or
fell off the train and was killed. Hogan,
Ryan and Pritchard were arrested for
murder. They were quickly disposed of
at the rate of 48 years each in the peni­
tentiary.
The prison officers soon recognized
Hogan's superior talents and placed
him where he conld render valuable
service. Ho took a deep and intelligent
interest in every duty assigned to him
and was very quiet, orderly and neat in
everything he did. He never gave np a
word as to his parents, relatives nr
home. He never wrote a letter, except
to his lawyer, or received one, but it is
confidently believed that Hogan is high­
ly connected. He is a college graduate.
Said Warden Baker, speaking of H o­
gan: “ Do we want a translation from
the Greek or I.atin inscription, Hogai
does i t I f any piece o f copy is to be
written in a copper plate hand, Hogan
does it in the most elegant manner. I f
w e require a trial balance made, Hogan
makes it. He is filled w ith accurate in ­
formation upon all sorts of subjects and
makes all kinds of calculations with
ease, yet he never volunteers to say a
word unless asked. He appears to be
contented and applies himself diligently
to his duties. He is one o f the best pris­
oners we have. ”
A correspondent met Hogan in the
office the other day and was greeted by
a cordial handshake. “ Yes, I am very
glad I aui going ont, ” he said. “ 1 have
been here 21 years and am anxious for a
change. I have had some very warm
friends here during that tim e among the
officers, whom I shall be pleased to see
again. ’ ’ Aud he led the conversation
away from him self as it' he wished to
avoid it.— Chicago Correspondent

A represe) tative o f the Oregon C ity
Enterprise v sited M r A . N. Tompkins,
the w ell-k m wu carpenter aud builder
o f Oregon C ity, and finding him hard
at work, ask-td i f he was the man who
had been i l l o f rheumatism. R eceiv­
ing uu affirm ative answer, the reporter
asked i f he would have any objections
to m aking a stat -ment o f his case, how
he w*as cared, e t a , for the benefit of
the public.
" N o objections at a ll,” said Mr.
Tompkins
“ l have suffered w ith
lumbago for yiars, having had bad
spells off and o l . Sometimes it would
lay me up entirely. W henever 1 did
any heavy liftiu f, or got w et or caught
cold, I would have a bad spell. Some­
times 1 would la so bud that I could
not straighten up. 1 was always look­
ing for somethin f on which 1 could
count for certain relief, i f not absolute
cure. I tried in my physicians. One
nearly succeeded in making a m or­
phine fiend o f u e by injecting mor­
phine into my h o ly to relieve the pain
he could not cure and was not honest
enough to admit. A l l these medicines
aud doctors did me no good, some even
as in this case, doing me harm.
“ W h ile w orking
on the Barclay
bnilding some months ago 1 had an at­
tack. 1 im m ediately went to Cliamiau
& C o.’ s drug atore aud told Mr. Char-
man to g iv e tie a box of Pink P ills
H avin g bonghl the n 1 commenced tak­
ing them at ouoe, and after the first
day I experienced relief, aud in two
weeks I was entirely w ell. 1 had in
that tim e nsed p >rt of the aecoud box.
Being at the home of my daughter-in-
law, Mrs. Lena Tompkins, a.ud hearing
her complain o f rheumatism, 1 gave
her the balance.
“ N ow , 1 have worked righ t along,
and in spite of the present wet weather
and the fact that 1 have a heavy cold
just now, 1 have no indication of the
presence o f my old disease, and any
one of the three things (heavy w oik,
wet weather aud a cold) which I now
have combined, would have given me
a bad spell heretofore. I consider Dr.
W illia m s ' P ink P ills a great remedy,
and I believe they have absolutely
cured me. A t least, i f they have not,
it is only a question o f continuing the
remedy long enough, and i f I ever have
a return o f 'h e pain 1 shall tty to Pink
P ills .”
Dr. W illia m s ' Pink P ills contain, in
a condensed form, a ll the elements nec­
essary to g ive new life aud richness to
the blood and restore shattered nerves.
They are an u nfailing specific for such
diseases as locomotor ataxia, partial
paralysis, St. Vitus dance, sciatica,
neuralgia, rheumatism, nervous head­
ache, the after effects o f la grippe, pal­
pitation o f the heart, pale and sallow
complexion, all forms o f weakness
either in male or female, and a ll dis­
eases resulting from vitiated humors in
the blood. Pink P ills are sold by all
dealers, or w ill be sent jsistpaid on re­
ceipt o f price (50 cents a box, or six
boxes for $2.50) by adresaing Dr. W i l l ­

I have been stimulated by the recent
trials o f the ballet proof cnirass to try a
few experiments on the subject. I w ill
only mention one experiment, which 1
made this morning, assisted by several
members of the Junior Scientific club
here. I t occurred to me that, i f the en­
ergy of the bnllet conld be made to act
at rather a large angle to its line of
flight, its penetrating power would be
diminished.
T o effect this I arranged a nnmber of
soft iron rods one-quarter inch in diam ­
eter and 5 inches long side by side and
touching a piece o f deal board. On those
another layer was placed, so that one of
the upper rods touched tw o of the under
ones. A sheet of thin rubber one six­
teenth of an inch thick placed on this
separated it from a similar combination
attached to it at right angles, and the
