No Extortion Practiced Anywhere— The Hos: atnlity Eel With a Visitor. am] Clubs Display Characteristic “{ have none but good tidings to commu- nicate about the Atlanta exposition,” said Mr. Frank V. Bebnd$t, the manager of the Arlington Hotel, to a Star reporter, who asked him last night, on his return from Atlanta, to tell him about the show. “The people of the south are to be congrutulajed and praised without stint for the marvel- ous enterprise they have shown in organiz- ing such a splendid exposition. Everything combines at Atlanta to make the visitor feel satisfied and comfortable. There never were such perfect arrangements for the easy handling of large crowds. Cars run from the center of Atlanta inside the expo- sition grounds at intervals of every two minutes. There are herdics inside the grounds that will take the visitor all over them for a nickel fare. On the lake one may ride in a steam launch for a distance of over two miles and get a splendid bird’s- eye view of the exposition buildings for twenty-five cents. These herdics will pick a person up and Stop to let them get off at any point desired. ‘The arrangement of the grounds 1s artistic, and everything moves in the way of order with clock-work pre- cision. Trere is absolutely no extortion no- ticeable, elther in the city or at the exposi- tion grounds. The hotels charge extremely moderate rates, and 4 large number of pri- vate citizens have opened their houses for the accommodation of visitors at simply ridiculous prices. 'Then it is possible with- in the exposition grounds for sightse2rs to buy milk by the glass, excellent sandwiches and cheap substantials of that character, while for those in good circumstances there are excellent restaurants, where the prices are moderate in the extreme. “I dwell particularly on these features,” continued Mr. Bennett, “because they are not the least important things to be con- sidered by a person who intends visiting the exposition. To those who are so fortu- nate as to be extended the club privileges of either the Capital City Club or the Pied- mont Driving Club diring their stay in At- lanta, a splerdid opportunity is presented to enjoy life so far-as the stomach part of it is concerned, to the fullest. The Capital City Club, which’ is situated on Peachtree street, has added very large additional res- taurant space to its dining room, and lur- ing the exposition allows ladies accompa- nying members and those who have the privileges of the chub to enter the estab- lishment and enjoy the meals provided ‘there. The Pledmont Driving Club, whose hevse is out near the exposition grounds, adopted the same hospitable system, and so the possessor of cards to either of these club houses is fortunate, Indeed. Mr. Clark Howell put me up at both of these, and I enjoyed the privileges almost as much as I appreciated his kindness. “Too much cannot be said in praise of the exposition proper,” continued Mr. Bennett. “The government exhibit is simply super! ‘The manufacturers building contains a vast and instructive collection of every appli- ance and machine used in the practical art, while the electrical exhibition is simply wenderful. The midway is scarcely up to the Chicago standard, but one can see queer sights there, and not the least inter- esting part of the walk through it is listen- ing to the fakirs, whastand in front of the various shows and toudly endeavor to at- tract the sightseers.toi the box offices. The illumination at night is very fine, and they have a prismatic fountain and other features, of which any, exposition ever held might be proud. J ¢annot give you any better idea of the Attractions at the exposi- tion than to tell you that each day of my visit I went out at, 1Q\o’clock in the morning and remained untifj§fter 6 at night, and was interested and/inptructed all the time. No one who can possibly manage it should miss the trip to athe ‘and her exposition. The realization ofthe tremendous energy and enterprise of the southern people 1s sufficient to repay sych a journey regard- less of the other netive things found at the end of it.” INDIAN, BAND (LEASES, Commissioner Smith Com- ments on a Western Report. A Perry, Okla., press dispatch says: The Pottawattamfe Indians in council Act! passed resolutions ag follows: “We belleve the stringent ruleS:6f the Interior Depart- ment regarding the leases are not conducive to our interests, It would be better for the Indian, better for the: white men and better for the community that the Indian should have greater control over his land in the way of leasing at least for limited periods of, say, five years. Give us more autonomy and less red-tapelsm. The excessive paternal- ism of the government tends to dwarf the development which is necessary to make us self supporting and which can be attained only by imposing upon the Indian greater personal responsibility.” The Dispatch Diseredited. ‘The above dispatch was shown to Acting Commissioner Smith, who said that It was not likely that the Indians had ever adopted any such resolution, but that it was prob- ably prepared by the white men who are in- terested in leasing and subleasing Indian lands and acting as middle men for the dis- position of Indian leases. It appears that there are a great many such cases in the Indian territory and Oklahoma, similar to those on the Omaha and Winnebago reser- vations, The recent decisions of the various courts have determined that no leases ay valid unless approved by the Indian office. In the Pottawattamie country there are a great number of Indian teases where the lessees will be removed unless they take ad- vantage of the offer of the government and make new leases approved by the Indian of- fice. The agents in the Indian country have LETTERS FROM THE JAIL How Prisoners Plead for Liberty and a Chance to Reform... This is a Season of the Year When Many a Poor Wretch is Glad to Go to Jail. Persors under what are known in prisons as “long terms” do not find it very uncom- fortable at times, although under the gen- eral run of things those who are sentenced to the District jail are not supposed to do anything other than spend their time in cells, with an occasional few minutes for exercise in the corridor. With the so-call- ed “long-term” prisoners, however, it is different, for the prison officials have to utilize them to do work about the building and grounds, including service in the kitchen, At the workhouse it is entirely different, for there the prisoners are sup- posed to go out and perform some kind of laber. Some of this labor is done on the street! while other work about the farm occupies the time and attention of some of those who are unfortunate enough to fall into the hands of the police. At this season of the year there are some prisoners who are delighted with a jail sen- tence, for this means a warm, comfortable home for them, and plenty of food, with little or no work to do. On the other hand, a workhouse sentence is not so desirable, for a few days’ work in cleaning snow out in the cold weather, with wet feet, is cal- culated to make any*man wish he could go to some other climate, even if he had to tramp there. The Letter Writers. In both the jail and workhouse there are usually a number of men who are letter writers, and these individuals pass their time writing to friends when they can get the necessary stationery and postage stamps. But these letters are subject to inspection by the jail officials, and, therefore, the con- tents of them are different from what they would ordinarily be. This precaution is taken because it might prevent a plan for joil delivery being successfully carried out. Most colored men write to their swect- hearts, so some of the officials say, while the white men write to male friends. This rcle applies only to the common, every-day prisoner, and not to the professional thieves and the occasional prisoner who is in mora than commonplace circumstances. Some of the prisoners do not forget to ad- dress notes to persons whom they expect will do them some good and perhaps get them out of prison. A Pathetic Appeal. Prosecuting Attorney Mullowny recently received from a colored man under sentence in jail a letter as follows: Hon. District Attorney Police Court, Mr. Mullowny. Sir: After having worrled and tortured my weak, ignorant brain until my head reels in pain, and in silent meditation of a solemn shame, I can find no other way conceivable under the canopy of heaven than to call r name. Mr. Mullowny, if your vs, please, sir, for God's sake, have mercy upon four little, small chil- dren, whose mother is delicate and their condition is a hundred per cent worse than mine. I feel that through the fluency of your powerful speech, in a brief remark, you could implore the Hon. Judge Miller to sus- pend the remainder of my time or give me personal bonds that I may have a chance to recuperate In the potato gathering time ie get my family out of the slums of Goat alley. = They are harbored in one room and may cause the District more trouble by disease. ‘fhe hardness of the times and debt are the principal .causes of my family’s present condition, and an overdose of rum on the 14th instant Is the cause of my present fate, for which I confess that I am heartily sorry and ashamed. Therefore I humbly pray to UU Stylish | Coats, Capes, Suits, Waists, &c. : There is a marked difference between the styles of last winter and this. Last year’s Coats were three-quarter lengths, high puffed sleeves, tight-fitting at the waist, and many of them braid and fur trimmed. This winter the leading styles are short, loose fitting “box” effects, with 2 buttons, sleeves and made severely plain, but elegantly. carry over. garments from one season to another, every Coat, Cape and Suit is entirely new—cut in the very latest Paris fash- ion. We want to sound a warning.

God that you will help me for my destitute family's sake, and I will be ever cautious, courteous, honest and temperate for the re- roainder of my day, is my humble cry to God Ana the universe. Dear sir, I know that if you withheld your wrath from the diamond thief you can save a poorer wretch as I. And you will not be doing me a favor alone, but you will be showering blessings upon the heads of seven other poor souls terribly more deserving of happiness.

Residence, 13 Goat alley; front room, upstairs; wife and four children; a laborer. Sometimes Released. Only a few days ago a white man sentenc- ed to the farm because of his bad conduct, resulting from the use of intoxicating liquor, addressed to the officer who had arrested him the following: Sezgt. John C. Daily: Dear Sir: As I am now sober, and fully realize the shame attaching to the fact of being an inmate of this asylum, I will ask you in all seriousness to have me released cn my personal bond. and with the sole and specific condition of taking the pledge and abstaining in future from all intoxi- cants of whatever character. I cannot close this hastily written note without expressing sincere regret for caus- ing you to du what I know you very re- antly did in causing my arrest. How- ever, let the past be buried beyond recol lection, as my future conduct shall be up- right, honest, and in keeping with respect due my father in his declining years. Hop: it may be in your power to grant me above favor, I am, sir, yours respect- ‘ould be pleased to have you er at your earliest convenience. These letters were given due considera- tion, and the man who signified a desire to take the pledge and do better was released been instructed to remove the present oc- cupants unless they shall make new leases. ‘The occupants hold that they can only be re moved through the courts. If that plan is ‘pursued it will take several years to ac- complish the result, and the Indian agent of the Pottawattamie says that he cannot exe- cute the orders of the Indian office to effect the removal without more force than he has in his Indian police, and asks for a company of cavalry to remove the present lessees. ‘The Indian office has told him to make all Sirois PA.

Bradford, who was last week convicted of having in his possession piates for counterfeiting $100 bills, was sentenced Wednesday in New York to six years in the Kings county penitentiary. Owing to the fact that he revealed to the secret service the hiding place of a number of plates and a quantity of counterfeit securities he escaped a longer sentence. FEW MNOW ABOUT THE SHAKERS AN INTERESTING, GOD-FEARING PEOPLE WHO HAVE GIVEN THE WORLD MANY IMPORTANT DISCOVERIES. We may not accept thelr peculiar religious beliefs, nor can we enter into the spirit of their sacrifices. It is not necessary to believe as they do, but we can and do respect thelr sincerity of parpose and the honor and uprightness which marks all their business dealings. ‘The Shakers have always been successful in- yentors, and some of the greatest of the conven- fences of the present day found origin in their settlements. In one particular they excel all other men or classes of men, and that 4s in cultivation of me- dicinal herbs and plants and their preparation for use. They have made it a study for more than one hundred years. It is one of their peculiar industries. ‘Their lives have been devoted to It. ‘Their latest and greatest achievement s the Shaker Digestive Cordial. It is not offered as a cure for all diseases. It does not pretend to he, but one disease it will cure, and that ts indigestion. Sufferers who rccort to Its use Lavo not long to wait to see the result. The effect ts almost im- mediate. The first dose usvally gives relief, and if continued a permanent cure will follow. It not only contains already digested food, hut tt digests food as well, thus toning up the general system.
