HENRY W- GRADY’S SUCCESSOR. Frank L. Stanton Who Sings of Sunshine and the Brotherhood of Man. In the office of the Atlanta. Cons'titn- tion no eifete luxuries conspire to weak- en the temper of journalists. Stern simplicity is the rule, and a loyal re- spect for the institutions of the past. even to the dust which had gathered upon them. Northern neWspapers are installing themselves in new ofiices, adorned with the glory of mosaics and frescoes and precious woods and wrought iron, but this Southern news- paper feels a. conseruative scorn for such splendors, and turns out craters, story tellers, poets, from dens which modern art would not dare to desecrate. I invaded one of these dens in search of a poet, remembering, as I passed along the hall, that Henry W. Grady had lived and wrought here, and that Joel Chandler Harris still gives here to journalism the hours not sacred , to literature. I'fcund- Frank. L. Stanton in front of a desk in a room not more time honored than the-rest, adorned with wall paper not more reminiscent of bygone taste. The desk was heaped with papers in every stage from menu- script to the printed sheet, and every pigeonhole was doing it full share of duty. - “Oh, yes,” said Mr. Stanton. turning from the clearing where he had been at work, ”there’s no hope for anything which once gets-caught—in here. I-put a Clipping aWay to remember or refer to, knowing in the bottom of my heart that if it ever should, be wanted I could not find it. And then once in a few months I get a fit of impatience. sweep everything that comes to - the sur- foce into the waste paper basket, and begin- afresh.” . It was a dark. strong looking man who faced me, with touches of gray in the mustache and heavy hair; manifest- ly a democrat, ready to meet any kind of creature on_equal terms, fromas‘treei dog to a lady manager. Not so mani- festly La Southerner, by token of voice and. manner, Eso I questioned him on that oint. a “ es, I belong down here,” he an- swered. “I have thought-sometimes of trying life in Chicago, but I could never stand those cold winters,” and the poet screwed up his expressive face into a hard knot of disgust. “I should freeze into a monumental icicle.” Fearing that his face might freeze in- to its present expression, I recalled him to summer thoughts. This time it was hlsart we talked of, and he gave the subject a laugh. “Oh, yes, I have a fatal facility. If facility counted for anything I should be a great poet, for the rhymes string off as fast as I can talk. .But most of such verse is merely journalism—writ- ten for to—day and gone to-morrow, I It- -_ is only new and then that one comes to, , -me"fz_.vhich may be worth putting in a book.’ - 4 , ~ - He told of amusing experiences with better. writers. One young gentleman in Michigan, for example, had added to one of Stanton’s poems the compliment of his own signature, and sent it to the Constitution for publication. Another had offered to sell him subjects and even rhymes for a small consideration. He explained the circumstances under which he wrote the ode for the dedica- tion of the Atlanta Exposition. “The day before the show to open some of those fellows came to me and said they wanted an ode. I told them I couldn’t write anything in so short a time, but they said Imust, so I went to work that night and reeled 01f something »-—I hardly knew what.” I drew a long breath of wonder. These Southern directors were as bold as those in Chicago, who, during the autumn of [890, ordered the consulting architect of the Columbian Exposition to present "completed plans and specifications” within 24 hours. Poetry and the arts must move at railroad speed to keep up with the modern procession. Brice’s Early Financiering. An old gentleman from Springfield, Ohio, stopping at the Gibson the other night, told a story about Senator Brice, which, although it is not attested, is still somewhat characteristic of the great financier. “When Brice was a boy,” said he, “he 'got possession of a small toy ship, which he used to sail on a duck pond in the barnyard. One day a little neigh- bor boy came along with 'a splendid new knife, that must have cost about $2. , lErice coveted the knife, and after the coy left began to figure on a trade. He told one of the family that he thought of offering the neighbor boy his shipfor the knife. “ ‘Don’t do that, Cal,’ said his con— fidant. ‘Your ship is not worth half what the knife is worth.’ “ ‘I can’t help that,’ said Calvin, ‘for l i must have that knife.’ “In a day or so, young Brice turned up with the knife, 3. fine sled and a fiozen marbles, all of which he had . got in exchange for the ship. The next day the sled was gone, but he had the ship oack,'and rejoiced in the possession of 00th the knife and the ship. “The next day his marbles were gone, out he had the sled back, and now own- ed the sled, the ship and the valuable knife. The next day he had the mar- bles back, but was letting the neighbor boy coast a little on his sled, as it had snowed during the 'night, while he was the proud possessor of the ship, the sled, the knife and the beautiful glass marbles—and yet some peOple wonder why some men grow richer While others sontinue to get poorer and poorer.”— Giucinnati Enquirer. The Reason.

' - _ Will Probe the .Mystory. TRENTON, Oct. 1. =.—Proseoutor Stock- ton of Mercer county intends to have the grand jury inveétigate the attempted poi- soning of Captain Charles ,Vaanirk, bet- ter known as “the apple brandy king.” Van Kirk is wealthy and lives near Prince- ‘ton. The captain had been ill most of the summer. Finallyhe suspected that an attempt to poison him was being made . by two of his servants, Qharles Dolly and Maria Miller, both colored, A quantity of soup Was sent for analysis to Professor Cornwall of Princeton college, who found it contained poison. The captain accused his servants, and, it is alleged, they con- fessed, but before they could be arrested he sent them to Virginia. The authorities are suspicious and Believehau investigzr tlcn by theflgrand jury will Zshed a. new light on the case. Scott Beaten by Hackenberger. DENVER, Oct. 1\.—0. B. Hackenbergcr won a 25 mile track race with Monte Scott of Providence, the time being 1 hour 16 minutes 4 3-5 seconds. Jockey- ing made the time slow, but the race was the hardest test HaCkeuberger has yet had. It is .theexpressed‘oplnlon of many bicycle experts that but for the altitude, which visibly nflected Scott, the result might have been different. The riders started on opposite sldes'of the track, and'Hacken- berger caught Scott in the seventh mile. After that the race was a seesaw: Scott several times regaining the loss by strong spurts, but being unable to hold it. The twenty-second mile was made in the re- markable time of tw0 minutes 13 seconds. The first five miles Were ridden in 12 minutes 16 seconds and the .tcn in 25 minutes 33 seconds. ‘ . 7 I WVoodrufPs Eligibility Contested. BROOKLYN, Oct. 1 a.-—-Presldent Towns - and Secretary Kremen of Bryan and Sew- all campaign club No. 1 of this city have issued. a signed statement to 'the efiect that from the result of the club’s research- es they have come to the conclusion that Hon.‘ Timothy L. Woodruff is ineligible for the office of lieutenant governor. They announce their purpose of contesting his eligibility for that office both before and after the election. ' Mr. Woodruff is new park commissioner, and the ground taken in the statement of Messrs. Towns and Kremen is that the office of lieutenant governor is a legislative office and there- fore comes under the provisions of. article 3, section 8, of the constitution, which prohibits any officer under any city gov- ernment from holding a legislative oflice in the state of New York. The Chin-so Expulsion Act. WASH OToN, Oct. 1 s—Au htgreeting question as arisen in the treasury depart- ment involving a new interpretation of the Chinese exclusion law. Some months ago a Chinese laborer named Long Fo Kim left California for China and before sail- ing complied with all the prescribed regu— lations except that of obtaining a. certifi- cate from the collector at San Francisco. There is no question as to his identity or his right to return under the law save in the particular of the certificate. . This he applied for at the steamer deck, but it was then‘too late to issue the paper before the vessel sailed. There are said to be two similar casep’ at ,Blat-tgburg. N. Y. The matter has been referred tag—the attorney; general for his opinion. Lord Congleton Dead. LONDON, Oct. 1 ;.—-Henry William Par- nell, third Baron Cougleton, died at Folke~ stone.

GRENADA, Miss, Oct. 1 s —The white people of Carroll county are terribly ex- cited over the discovery of an alleged plot by negroes to inaugurate a war of exter- mination. Word from Carrollton is that a letter, which exposed the plot, was found“ in the road addressed to a negro. A se- cret society ofnegroes had negotiated with the Winchester Arms company for a large number of rifles, and with these they pro- posed to Slaughter white men, women and children. ' Several leaders have been ar- rested, and the excitement is intense. Further particulars are anxiously awaited. Carrellton is the home of Senator Money. A number of negroes were killed in a riot there a few years ago, and bad blood still exists.’ There is no doubt that the situa- tion is now critical. Satolli at “'est Point. HIGHLAND FALLS, N.

Scheme for Shooting The * ’ " "Cataract. ' ,AbOut once; also many years some- body turns up with a. consuming desire to. glide ,over Niagara Falls, just to provethat it can be done. Mr. Coryell Bartholomew. aeronaut, of Jackson, Mich.,lis~the man who now has his eye on;Nia'gara.v . , - ' ,Mri' Bartholomew, knows all about th‘e‘d‘izzy- headed adventurers who have tried the. same game and lost. He is wiser than all the rest, and, knowingln his o'wnmind the secret _ of success, he is impatient to shoot the Falls and show how it can be done. , . ‘ Mr. .Bartholomew's scheme does sound very reasonable, and his argu- ments seem sound—but then this was equally true of the others whose bodies floated down the stream after Niagara had got through with. them. Still Mr. Bartholomew. has hit upon a device which does look mot-alike a. match for the'cataract than anything invented by others in the past. , , Bartholomew, having experience as an aeronaut, intends to try to combine a balloon and a boat into a ccntrivance which will have the best points of each. - .j . ’ This, machine is in eflect a colossal balloon in the shape of a great dumb bell, between the two globes of which the aeronaut will hang suspended from a .steel bar on a trapeze. A hollow shaft of light steel one hundred feet in length will extend from one end to the other of, this apparatus. , At either end of the steel bar will be asphere forty feet 'in diameter. This will leave a space of about twenty feet between the two huge balls. Here the aeronaut is to be suspended on his trapeze. . - The two Spheres will be built on a light steel frame. Each of them is to have a thick covering of cork. The cork covering will be useful in deadening the shock from any rocks that maybe encountered in the perilous trip over Niagara Falls. It will also be useful in floating the structure in case the ‘spheres should be punctured, letting gas out and water in. The structure will have a consider- able lifting capacity, and it will rest very lightly on fire water. Indeed, the inventor. of this extraordinary appar- atus says that it willso-closely resemble a balloon in its lifting capacity, that ballast will have to be used to keep it down‘in the water. This dead weight is to be stored in such a way that the daring aeronaut, at any time during his trip over Niagara Falls can release his ballast in case he finds his airship sinking. That. he thinks, is what- he may have. to do the instant the machine ' shoots .over the edge of the Falls. _ The huge dumbibell will b9 so light clear of the volume of water coming over the brink, and that from this lofty point, in full view of the thousands he expects to.line the shore. he will sink easilynnd gracefully to the bosom 'of the calm water below. There the Maid of the Mist and smaller boats will be in readiness to take him on board. Surprise On Both Sides. ' Teacher—What great event occurred on the Fourth of’July?
