MAIDS MADE MAD.
'Aflcorgla Female College Rebellion.
Gov. Atkinson Hissed Off the
Stage by Girls.
A special from Milledgeville, Ga., says:
There was a sensation on Thursday during
tho commencement exercises of the Georgia
Normal and Industrial College, growing out
of the conflict of tho authority between tho
trustees and faculty. In the caso- of one of
the students expelled for breach of discipline
involving the integrity of her examination,
the faculty decided that ehe was not entitled'
to a diploma. The trustees decided other
wise, as previous to examination in question
the younar lady had been found to be entitled
to a certificate a3 a graduate. .
After a full hearing of the case, the trus
tees decided to reverse the action of the
faculty and issued a diploma. When the
voting lady's name was ar.uouneed among
the graduates. Tresident Chappell arose and
pr6testd on behalf of the faculty against the
n?;tion of the trustees. Governor Atkinson
held that the cas-"s had been investigated fully
and that the trustees had determined in ev
eordance with the law of the college to issue
the diploma and to assume all responsibility
for its action. There L-t no question ? to
the authority of the board of trotter cr a
to the right of a student to appeal !rem thi
faculty to the board. When Governor At
kinson announced that the trustees would
deliver the diploma, the students, the faculty
and the audience were amazed. After Pres
ident Chappell made his protest. Governor
Atkinson stepped forward before the ap
plause had died away, and with a fa-re white
with rage and in a voice choked with anger,
he turned to Professor Chappell and uttered
these words amid a death like since : "I
have knowu Prof. Chappell a long time, but
I never thought he could be guilty of an at
so unbecoming a gentleman and so unchiv
alrous as persecuting a defenseless girl."
. He waited p moment to give his words
effect and then he said further? "Tb board
of trustees were guided solely by justice in
this affair and they have stood between a
(rross wrong and the most absolute justice."
Agiintheri was silence. "The teacher.- in
this-institution," lie said, "cannot confer di
plomas. Their terms end with this com
mencement and they have no light to do so
under the law."
In the pause that ensued, every teacher
on the stage and every student present .rose
en masse add accompanied by nearly the
whole audi'-nce. started to leave the room.
The governor rteod in amazement at such a
fpe-taeje. a blush mantling his cheeks. Gray
headed men present never remembered BU"h
spectacle of silent indignation hurled at the
ehief executive. Trof. Chappell stepped
quietly forward and in e few words called
the audience ba'-k, the Governer meanwhile
utterin? some remarks, the purport of which
was not r-learlv understood.
Then Fleming DuUignon asked the privi
lege of a word and stated that tho trustees
merely waut-d to d- justice to the young
lady. Tho benediction was propounced and
the exercises were over.
Biit the mo.-t humiliating experience yet
remained for Ge"rgia". ehief executive.
Governor Atkinson has been the ideal
of the college. The fctudeuts enthusiastically
ruprited l:m in their own way in his race
f-r Governor and when he was inaugurated,
1l.:o,y moved heaven and earth to get per
rpufjion to attend the exercises in a body.
' Ii'tt 83 the Governor stepped from the
stae, he was met by 200 angry, tearful
faces, and. ignoring aTT rules of courtesy, the
young maids hissed him to the echo. The
; tenior class imme.tiately held n session and
unanimously refused to receive their di
plomas from the board of trustees." Tha
coiiege has 310 students.
The South Carolina Registration Case.
Tho Tliehinond (Va.) Times eays
editorially of the registration case now
before the U. S. Circuit Conrt:
"The record and argument in the South
Carolina registration case, heard here before
the United States Circuit Court of Appeals,
present the case of the State in a clearer light
than it has yet been seen. Whatever Federal
question was involved and that was the
only question Judge Goft could have dealt
with must have arisen out of the fourteenth
and fifteenth amendments to the Constitu
tion and the ai t of Congress of June 25. 1868,
admitting South Carolina into tho Union,
after her adoption of the reconstruction
Constitution. It can hardly be held that the
provisions of that a-t will bind the state of
South Carolina for all time, and limit those
powers wlii- h. as a free, sovereign, nnd inde
pendent Sfat are guaranteed to her under
the Constitution of the United States. If,
therefore, there is nothing in the registration
laws lvhi'-li -.apply specially to negroes, if
white and Ma-k are treated, under the law,
exa"tlv ii'.ide. i. o eitizen ha t'n deprived of
his ri:.Fht to vote beruuse of ra-e, color, or
pre-ioi;s C ondition of servitude, Hiidtlie pro
isior.s of the llfteenlri 'amendment have not
been transgressed. As a matter of fact, no
such dis"riu:iii.ition xgainst the negroes has
been dis I.mm-J , indeed, strange to say. it
doe uppeitr from tl;:s record that the peti
tioner. Mill", w.is a negro, although Judge
. Goft' so slates in opinion, and it is said
- that o:ne of the most ol.j.-ctionabl" rulings
under the nxistf ntion law were against
while men. The i:r. port.'ini-e of the case does
not diminish on examination, and the in
dications are tlwit Judge Goff will be reversed,
and 'if this reversal should stt the court's
seal of disapprobation upon that construction
f f the act of Congress admitting South Caro-
linn into the Union which would mike that
at i'iuding on the State after she was re
stored to her i dace, it would be a most salu
tary lesson in constitutional; law. The re
eonsti action acts, ami all the theories upon
which they proceeded, and the conse
quences whieh followed their enactment and
enforcement, have ten most .ptTeesive viol:i
icnsvf the Constitution, and opposed to all
logical views of the Constitution, even from
the standpoint of ttie Unionists. If South
Carolina politics are corrupted, let her good
p-ioplo purity them themselves, and not in
voile 1'eder.a! interference." "

Hasty Work on tlio Bench An Inter
esting Story Told by a Jevr Jersc
Lawyer.
7T PROMINENT lawyer of New
Jersey, who has an office on
lower Broadway, tells a story
about Now York City judges
of forty years oO that always fetches
n o mile". Judge John T. Irving, the
upright and con&tentimis brother of
Washington Irviag, is the hero of the
alleged incident. It occurred in the
days when judges Teceived a fee of $1
for Terr paper fbey signed.
One day two porominent New York,
lawyers, so the story runs, were in
Jnusjo Irvlhg's court when he was
busily engaged in signing papers.
There was a long lino of lawyers filing
slowly In front of liis desk, and as
each passed up his papers he at the
same time laid down a corresponding
number of dollars. Tho Jndgo would
glance at the papers, make a scrawl
on eaoh and taZte up the next package,
tho pile of greenbacks growing stead
ily as the line of iMrywa thinned out.
One of tho two latyws looking on
said to his coanpanlc
"I have the highost ftwpect for the
Judge's integrity, but I'm eatisfied he
doesn't know half the tima what he is
signing. Why, watoh him. It is im
possible for him to get Half of an idea
of what is on the paper. If he ex
amined each one closely he'd never
get done ; but he should be more care
fnl, nevertheless." The other lawyer
declared tho Judge caught at a glance
the important sentence or phrase of
eaoh.
Xf eV, I don't believe it," exclaimed
the otheri "I feel sure, in spite of
better iit?9tione, that that one dollar
fee acts as an incentive and causes
His Honor to slfgnt hi work, and I'm
going to prove what I s,y." With
that ho strode out of the room, and
presently returned with a legal form
signed by tho Sheriff, and which set
forth that on such and such a day,
and at & certain hour and in a certain
place, Judge Irving was to be hanged
by the neck until he should be dead.
The lawyer then took his place in tho
line filing before tho Judga'a desk.
When it came his turn he held up the
paper, folded between his fingers in
a nonchalant manner, and laid down
his $1 with the other hand.
His Honor unfolded the paper and
hurriedly plunged his pen in the
ink. There was a splutter and a
scrawl, and Judge Irving had
signed his own death warrant. That
night the lawyer went to a social gath
ering, which Judge Irving was to at
tend, with the death warrant in his
pocket. When he found himself in a
corner with the Judge ho said :
"Judge, I was" watching you signing
papers to-day, and I couldn't for the
life of ine understand how you con
read them all. Do yon really read
them?",
"Why, certainly,
it's a matter of
habit you know. I
by years of practice.
have acquired it
I can at a glance
detect the really important sentence
or word."
"Well," said thelawyer, producing
the death warrant and folding it) : in
such a manner that the name of Judge
Irving only was visit le, "is that your
signature?'
.The Judge pui on his glasses, stared
at the paper an instant, and then de
clared it wan his signature. The law
yer then uniclded the paper and hand
ed it to the Judge. The latter read it
and turned crimson.
After that the signing of papers in
Judge Irving'e court was as long and
tedious a process as it had been rapid
and careless before. New York Press.

intimately associated all his life with the de
velopment of the two best American rifles,

e was Superintendent of the E. Remington

-leaving there he refused a tempting offer of
i he Chinese Government to go to China to
uperintend their government factories,
and accepted instead the superintendeney of
the Winchester-Arms Co., at New Haven, at
a salary of $7,500 a year. J
It was after this long term of active labor
as a business man that he found himself in
tapacitated for further service by the! em
bargo which rheumatism had laid upon1 him
nnd resigned his position more than j two
years ago. and returned to Belchertown,
Mass., where he uow lives and owns the
Thelps farm, a retired siot where he has five
luindred acrvs of land. !
Being a man of means he did not spare the
est and was treated by leading physieians
and by baths at celebrated springs without
receiving any benefit worth notice. During
the summer of 1893 and the winter of 1894
Mr. Clough was confined to his hous iu
Belchertown, being unable lo rise from his
bed without assistance, and suffering con
tinually with acute pains and with no taste
or desire for food, nor was he able to obtain
lufncient sleep. j
Early in the year 1S94 Mr. Clough heard of
Dr. AYilliams' Tint Pills for Pale People
He began lakiDg these pills about the first of .
March. 1894, and continued to do so until
the first part of September following. ! The
first effect noticed was a better appetite and
he began to note more ability to help himself
eff the bed and to be better general! v. Last
August (1894) he was able to go alone to his
.ummer residence and farm of 163 acres on
Grenadier Island, among the Thousand
Islands, in the river St. Lawrence, where
from the highest land of his farm ha com
mands a view for .13 miles down the river,
and 60 of the Thousand Islands can be seeD.
Instead of being confined to his bed Jlr.
Clough is now and has been for sometime
able to be about the farm to direct the

what Dr. Williams' Pink Pi!ls have done for

portait of a woman who j was Bis
marck's sweetheart in his early days.
Bismarck was living at Kniephof in
the year 183'J. His personal life dur
ing that year was of that lively char
acter over which he -afterward lament
ed bo bitterly. It was the Sturm und
Drag Zeit of h!a existence. Stories of
his dissoluteness and pride, his daring
feats as a rider, and his achievements
as a boon companion, his disregard of
conventional rule?, and his love of
wild adventure are numerous. The
youthful owner of Kniephof was ta be
often seen careering wildly across tha
country alone ox in the company of
gay friends who were his guestn, and
such was tho impression . he produced
on the quiet population that he came,
to be generally known as the "Mad
Bismarck." Near Kniephof there
lived a farmer of the name of Goetz.
He had an only daughter,! Malvina,
who was known as the beauty of the
neighborhood. Bismarck met her and
paid Lis addresses, but as it was im
possible for the proud young master
of Kniephof to make this lowly maid
his wife her father frowned upon their
intimacy. Soon after Bismarck, on his
mother's death, moved to Pomerauia
and probably forgot all about his early
attachment. Malvina Goetz married
in her own station of life.
Years altewards, when Bismarck's
name became famous throughout the
world, the respectable middle-aged
Malvina became local celebrity, and
the Chancellor's enemies tried to make
capital out of bis old love affair. Il

. It is curious to note the different
ideas different people have about
well, say, Napoleon Bonaparte's per
sonal appearance. You might fancy
Lim a chameleon-like hero,! to be in
vested according to the whim of his
worshiper with brown eyes and with
a commanding presence, surmounted
by that dark imperial curl which for
ever caressed the marble beauty of his
nobfe forehead. It quite unnerves one
to be assured that the hero of Maren
go and of Austerlitz was but five feet
lour in height, that he had red hair,
and that early in life he became so
bald that the famous curl which is to
be seen in his portraits was actually
brought forward in a long 6tringy
mass over a hairless stretch from the
back part of his head. Chicago Hec

New United States" i rmy Cap.
Herewith is presented a picture of tha
new oap for the United States Army, a
cap that seems to be a much more sensi
ble piece of headgear than the one which
it will displace after July 1,: as to j of
ficers, and after January 1; 189G, for
enlisted men. Those among army
officers who see no necessity for a
change criticise the new cap as being
devoid jof what they term "military
smartness," but none of them has aa
yet attempted to assail the cap as
practical piece of wearing apparel.
Among the advantages it has over the
present headgear the most conspicu
ous one is that it will stay oh the head
without being held ; another advan
tage in the sloping visor, which affords
grateful protection to the eyes.

feet in depth through columnar basalt,
the hardest kind, and in this rock the

Petrified trees have been found at

has stood on that spot is a problem
for geologists to wrestle with. It was
200 or 300 years growing. Then who
can tell how long it took to petrify it,
or how this was dono where it stands?
This process must have been 'Com

If any one wants specimens of petri
