EDISON IS COMING. in Atlanta StreeU The Stuff Dresden Mra. John Keely. Edison oming to Georgia, and kaolin in the Street of Atlanta will be news enough for one Soluniu. Thb Constitution present! another inter View with Mr.

Edison by its special correspondent, Mr. W. E. Home, whose important mis aion has to interest the great inventor in Georgia ores. It gives us great pleasure to announce that the mission is a success, and Mr.

£dison will spend next summer camping out among the mountains of north Georgia. geological and mining expert, Mr. Bums, will le in Georgia in a few weeks, and will accompany Mr. Home, who will organize a prospecting corps within a month. The picture of Mr.

Edison which appears in this column was made from a photograph aent by the, inventor at Ths CoNSTrruTiona request. It is different from some likenesses but this is the man, as he be put on paper in a few hours. Kooly's discovery of kaolin in Atlanta Is un ither revelation. There is now no reason we should not compete in quality and artistic beauty with the far famed Dresden A Talk With the Edlsons. Cn.utLOTTE, N.

March About this distinsuii hed household there is a rythm of joy. Thomas A. Edison, whose picture attracts attention to this column, and Mrs. Edison, a handsome lady with mobilo features, wears her wealth of beauty and fortune as easily as her husband Wears his fame. Mr.

Edison's handsome and accomplished daughter of seventeen is now in Europe. Here with him aro bis two sons, Thomas A. Edison, a younger brother now. thirteen, and Madeline, a beautiful child twenty one months old. "She is our baby," said Mrs.

Edison, "but Sir. Edison says the phonograph is bis." Among the more important inventions of Mr Edison now in use, aro the following: The stock ticker. The sending four messages over One wire. The two messages at the samo time over one wire in different directions. The electric incandescent light.

The the most wonderful invention of all ages. The mimeograph and dynamoes. His last discovery, a process by which ho electrically eliminates gold from low grade eulphuret ores at a profit, will be of great value to the south. He will also free our vast volumes of magnetic ore from silicate and make Georgia a great steel producing 6tate. Appreciating the courtesies of The Constitution, Mr.

Edison accepts its invitation to visit Georgia; not to be feted by Atlanta's chamber of commerce, but to enjoy the pure air and water of the Piedmont region, camp in the Blue Ridge, and prospectat leisure Ler2 is of 0 Mr. Kittell, an old friend and the proprietor of the Buford house, where Mr. Edison and family have apartments, we learn that from the beginning Cf his discoveries until the world was ablaze with bis light, ho was known for his integrity and simplicity of manner. Now, peerless with great wealth and deserved fame, he is the same honest, painstaking, non scheming man of earlier years. He avoids display, and is not at tome in artificial atmospheres.

He does not Issue stocks, to sell them, until his experiments have proven a success. When a subject, animate or inanimate, is presented, be is quick and almost phenomenal in bis conception of values and virtues, but he is, nevertheless, painstaking and scientifically accurate in his subsequent determinations. Banquets and are tendered. These he declines without offense, but makes bimseif a genial factor in all his social relations. He is the only living man who figures in the world of applied science, in whom the world has found a success unalloyed with doubt.

Now, that the south is the theater of his experiments, The Constitution will do all in its power to aid him in the development of her mineral values. Mr. Edison is now experimenting in some ores sent to him by The Constitution, Georgia. He will leave Mr. Barnes here in charge of his rooms, and his ores, and when he returns this summer will accept the invitation of The and spend some time in the mountains of Georgia, for he likes the Georgia ores, and when he finds, after a thorough test, the satisfactory quantity and assay value of the ores, if prices suit, he will buy the property and pay spot cash.

He has at his command whatever amount of money he may desire. When I told him of apparent volumes of 'iow grade ore in the mountains of Georgia, he inquired "How far from the railroad?" "Twenty miles." I answered. "How far from coal same distance." "No coke, then?" sir!" ''Water?" "Yes, sir with volume and power." "Can't do anything!" be replied, meditatively, but atter a pause, in which I could almost hear his footsteps as he walked along gallery of inquiry, he continued: "Yes, sir, I can use charcoal.1' His face, when solving a problem, shows no but is a mirror of forceful and analytical thought. He has two rooms fitted up, where he assorts the ores for assay, if probability of value is apparent, and he is a good judge. While I was talking to him, a gentleman brought in some worthless stuff.

He did not receive it any the less courteously, but as he placed it on the shelf amoung other hungry looking rocks, he said, in an undertone, The south, with great wealth of mines, baa been cursed by adventuresome illiteracy and pretentions frauds, who were as ignorant of true mineral values as the over credulous capitalists they robbed. Now, when one of these goes to Edison laboratory with he win come away under the impression that be has struck a dynamo, an wjcwic oca or a torpedo. Kaolin In Georgia. Another source of wealth in 'Georgia, and one measurleas in its far reaching and refining results, is the recent discovery by Mrs, John Keely, of large quantities of the purest and whitest Kaolin within a mile of the new capitol, in a cat made by the work men, while grading the streets oi Atlanta. A similar discovery In Saxony, laid the foundation of the factory at Meissen by producing the famous Dresden china.

In "Pottery and Porcelain of All limes and Nations," Prime, the author, aays: "True porcelain cannot be made where kaolin cannot be obtained." A competitive test of a similar kaolin, taken from the same mineral cone, not forty miles from Atlanta, and within her easy reach, was made at the instance of ex Governor William H. Smith, of Alabama, at the Centennial of 76, in Philadelphia. It took the premium over all Asiatic and European kaolins. Here, then, with an unlimited demand for all the wares she can make, let Atlanta lay the foundation for an American school of design in ceramic art, and as her rapidly increasing population shall emerge from her splendid schools, let them find employment, till her porcelain and china, displacing the heavier and duller stuffs, shall find a market wherever utility blended with beauty is appreciated, W. E.

Horse. WILL BE KEPT IN AUGUSTA. The Georgia Directory Will Not Establish a Bank in Atlanta. Augusta, March ll. The branch bank of the Georgia Railroad and Banking compano, which the directory thought of placing in Atlanta, has been abandoned, and the capital of this large corporation will only be operated in Augusta.

There was a meeting of the Georgia railroad directors here today, and after some discussion on the subject, a vote was taken, which decided adversely to the branch bank. No other business of Importance was transacted. President Dyer contracted today with Jesse, Thompson Co. for ten thousand cross ties, the first installment for the new electric line of the Augusta Railway companv. This is another evidence that the" Kansas City peoide mean business, and are moving ahead in a practical way.

The first invoice of three hundred tons of steel rails has been received, and the contract for the poles and wire has also been awarded. THE GRAVE OF A SOLDIER. A Georgia Veteran Who Died on His Way Woodward, Fairfield county, S. March Mr. E.

Miller today told the following to your correspondent: "There is resting in the Presbyterian graveyard at this place, the remains of a confederate soldier by the name of Mathew Rickeason, who lived near the Okefenokee swamp, in Ware county, Georgia, and who belonged to the Sixty third Georgia regiment. He died in my father's house on a bright Sabbath morning, in the spring of while on his way home on a sick furlough. REMEMBERED HIS WIFE. Before be died be gave my fatherjthe address of bis wife, whose name, if my memory serves me right, was Amanda, with the request that if he died to write to her and inform her of his death. My father accordingly wrote, but as there were no mail facilities here at that time, on account of the having been destroyed by General Sherman's army, sent the letter by another Georgia soldier, who was passing also on his way homo, with the request to forward it to its destination.

After waiting two or three months and still receiving no answer, he wrote again, this time by mail, but from some cause never heard from her, and I do not think he ever wrote ANOTHER EFFORT TO FIND THE WIFE. "Believing that Mrs.Rickerson neverreceived either of the letters and that she, if alive, is still ignorant of the fate of her husband and of the fact that he is sleeping in the grave yard of old Concord church in South Carolina; and feeling that it would be a consolation to her, or to any of his friends, even at this late day to be acquainted with this fact and the particulars of bis death, I feel anxious to communicate it to them. Bui as I am unable of communicating directly with any one, I will ask The Constitution to aid me in my efforts by publishing this, and should any one interested in this gallant soldier see this, and desire the particulars of his death, by writing to me I will send together with a few articles he left, which though of not much value will no doubt be prized as keep sakes. THE CONVENTION CAIXED. Whan Mississippi Will Make a New Cousti Jackson, March As provided in the aet calling a constitutional convention, Governor Stone today his proclamation ordering the election for delegates on July The election will be conducted as other elections, under existing laws, and the convention will assemble on August 12th.

IN SAILBOAD CIRCLES. The Georgia Pacific is creeping west ward, ana is now across the Mississippi river into Arkansas. A through train schedule to Arkansas City goes into effect next. Sunday. The line between Greenville, and Arkansas City is secured by lease from the Louisville, New Orleans and Texas.

Trains will be run now without change from Atlanta to Arkansas City, 481 miles, without change connecting at the latter point with the Missouri Pacific. This is the first schedule ever designed to take a train from Atlanta, without change, across the Mississippi. Two large parties of railroad men. pass through Atlanta today en route to the City of Mexico, where they go to attend the meeting of the American association of general passenger and ticket agents, which convenes there on the 18th. The larger party comes from New.

York via Washington, reaching here in charge of General Passenger Agent James L. Taylor, of Richmond and Danville. In it are about fifty eastern passenger agents. They leave this afternoon on the regular schedule, in special sleepers, for Birmingham, going over the Georgia Pacific. At Birmingham excursions and other courtesies have been arranged by the Georgia Pacific, and the party will remain in Birmingham all day tomorrow.

From this place they go Thursday night over the Queen and Crescent to New Orleanss. General Passsen ger Agent S.H. Hardwick, of the Georgia Pacific, joins them with another party at Birmingham. The other party leaves this afternoon at 1 over the West Point road, in charge of General Passenger Agent B. W.

Wrenn, of the East Tennessee. They go through Mont gomery to New Orleans. The two parties come together at New Orleans. It is proposed that all delegates from the United States and Canada be brought gether just this side of the Mexican line and enter Mexico in a body. Southern Passenger Association.

The determined position taken by the Southern Passenger association at Jacksonville a few weeks ago, in extending the limits of excursion tickets, and in taking off their straight jacket provisions imposed heretofore at the instance of the northern trunk lines, is familiar to Constttutios readers. The sequel will develop at the trunk line meeting to be held in New York on the 25th of The main question here will be as to open ing the whole eastern territory to southern tourist rates. The Southern Passenger association have asked for that the northern and eastern trunk lines admit the southern roads to all their territory. The tourist rates can he given here now to Niagara Falls, Jamestown, and Deer Park, and anywhere west of the line through those their object being to protect the great commercial centres. Now York, Philadelphia, and Baltimore.

The Southern association wants to sell excursion tickets to the whole northeast, to Narragansott Pier, Saratoga, Capo May, and all other points in the non prescribed territory. "Of course," said Commissioner Slaughter, "the trunk lines may refuse to receive our tickets outside of our own territory, and in that case we would hare to select certain points at the border of our territory and put on tickets to those like Washington and Hagerstown, in Maryland." "If they refuse to receive your tickets," he was asked, "can't you refuse theirs to southern points?" he said, "though that is a matter of policy, and no decision upon the matter has ever been made by our association. We would be better able to enforce our rights if ali the roads in our territory were in tho association. The Louisville and Nashville, the Queen and Crescent, the Illinois Central, and the Mobile and Ohio are out. The first two ticket through Cincinnati, and the latter two through Cairo, and neither therefore would be effocted by the refusal of the trunk lines to grant our request, and are consequently opposed to our taking such aggressive mcas "Can they do anything to break the effectof any action in the matter by your association "Only by cutting rates.

They might force us to "make a lower rate than' we intended, but they could in no wise defeat the purpose of the association in the matter." "Suppose they do refuse to let you sell tickets into that northeastern territory, what will probably be done?" "We anticipate no such action." The Southern Passenger association will not be represented at New York at tho meeting of the trunk lines on the 25th. They have said all they had to say, being in conference with tho trunk lines at Cape May last August, New York in January, and Cincinnati only three or fonr weeks ago. The result of the meeting in New York will be awaited with considerable interest. Athens it Carolina and Northern construction forces. General R.

F. Hope, the president, and Major Temple, the chief engineer, have offices there, and in a few days the contracts are to be let for the building of the road from the Savannah river to Atlanta. The Southern Travelers' Official Railway Guide for March is just out. The Guide is a very handsome and useful affair, and the new map is a fine one. Commissioner Slaughter leaves today in Mr.

Wrenn's party over the West Point for Mexico. The Louisville and Nashville to Double Track. Birmingham, March 11. The Louisville and Nashville railroad is to be made a double track road between this city and Decatur, a distance of eighty four miles. The work will begin at once and be pushed to completion.

On account of the many long side tracks only about forty miles of grading will have to be done for the additional tracks. A double track is necessary on account of the enormous freight traffic on this division. FROM ATLANTA TO BIRMINGHAM. Today the officials of the Georgia Pacific road announced that that line was to be double tracked between Atlanta and Birmingham, 167 miles. Work will begin at Atlanta and Austell Junction, and the entire line will have a double track in eighteen months or less time.

The business of this road has grown to enormous proportions, and the traffic cannot be handled promptly on one track. The Southbound Road. Guttoh, March Now that the city of Savannah has generously fixed the Southbound railroad with terminal facilities in that city, the people of Effingham who reside along the line of the new road are beginning to feel that the projectors of the Southbound mean business. Since they were disappointed in the failure of Colonel Fry to build his road from Atlanta to Savannah, which, according to survey, took in Springfield, they have been somewhat dubious of railroad enterprises, and rather hesitated to respond or encourage other projected roads. The several meetings recently held at Springfield to induce the projectors of the Southbound to change their line so as to pass near the corporate limits, lesulted in a memorial to the road's authorities setting forth the advantages and benefits to be derived by the chance.

The people of Hampton county, 8. near the line, on the Savannah ri excited over another new railroad enterprise. In aa interview your correspondent bad with Major W. J. Lawton, a prominent citizen of Hampton county, 8.

C. who is oh a visit to his daughter, Mis. John K. Garnett, of this place, he learns that the surveying corps of the North and South Short Line had reached the Savannah river and would cross over at Ku arax rerry.and begin this week near the river, straight line to Jessup and Jacksonville, Fla. Major Lawton says the surveying corps is well equipped and was making considerable progress thev claim to be backed up with ample capital to build the road, and that was reported the Robiaon syndicate bad matters in From maps exhibited it appears that the road starts from Raleigh, N.

and takes in Golds boro, Greensboro, and on to S. and would touch either Columbia or Sumter and down to Branch ville and Hampton court nouse, crossing ine Bavannan nver auubx This new to the people of fiffingham, and they will be astonished when they see the surveying corps operating in their midst this week. Some of the finest undeveloped timber lands in Geor gia can be found in old Effingham, and the North and South Short Line means business the old county with its plain, honest, sturdy descendants of the Sartzburgers will certainly take on a good sized boom. It has already been hinted that as Colonel Fry when here canvassing for subscriptions for his road was favorably Impressed with the people: This must be the colonel in disguise making his promises good by coming in another direction. Frank R.

Farrer was elected sheriff of the county by a good majority, last week. The county alliance held a meeting at Springfield, on Satnrday, but as their deliberations were held with closed doors, the business of the meeting could not be ascertained. Colonel Livington's crop storage and sub treasury plan as published in the The Constitution, has been read by quite a number around here and the general impression is that the colonel is on a mild hunt for the govemor in neb am is not much of a cotton producing county, but if the colonel can arrange matters as to let in the truck fanners and those who grow corn, potatoes and sugar cane, then they preference, and consider hisb THE TRAY OF DIAMONDS And How a Bobber Got of With the A Bold Bobbery. Dallas, March One of the bold est robberies that has ever occurred in this state, took place last night at 9:30 o'clock, at No. 608 Main street, in the very heart of the city, Domnan Samuels are jewelers, and keep a magnificent display of costly goods, behind plate glass in their large show window.

Within and without are electric lights, and the neighborhood is kept almost as light as day. While Domnan was waiting on a customer, he heard a terrific crash at the window and turned his eyes barely in time to see a tray of stolen diamond rings disappear, ue ran out in an instant, but the thief had disappeared up a stairway at the side of his store. The break was made with a rock weighing twenty pounds, wrapped in paper. The tray contained forty two fine diamond rings, valued at $5,000. The thief was a slender white man, about five feet eight inches high, without whiskers, and wore a black suit and light colored hat.

After he ran up the stairs in front he was seen to descend to the street in the rear and go out through an alley. The sheriff and other officials, with trained bloodhounds, are now on his trail. The Doctor's Close Call. Roanoke, March Just after dark last night Miss Nora Wooten went to the residence of Dr. A.

A. Sims, a prominent physician of this city, and on his appearance at tlie door, in answer to her summons, placed a pistol to hes face and fired. The bullet struck his chin and glanced off without doing serious injury. About two weeks ago Miss Wooten was adjudged insane by the commission of lunacy, but for some unexplained cause the authorities neglected to have her confined. The Sun's Cotton Review.

New York, March Cotton futures gave wav six to seven points in the earlv dealings. The unsatisfactory Liverpool report caused a good fort to buy back some of the cotton that had sold in the morning, caused a recovery of half the decline of the morning. The market weakened a little at the last moment. A FINE PIECE OF WORK. The Atlanta Fire Department Scores Another There was an ugly fire on Decatur street last night.

Between 9 and 10 clock, Patrolman Jim Wooten saw smoke coming up through the grating in front of Allen Boylan's store, and rung in the alarm. The department responded promptlyXbut when the companies arrived at the scene they found the fire hard to locate. Several streams were started into the base ent, on the Decatur street side, but they proved of little avail. After a short time the fire was located in a of dry goods boxes in the basement in the rear of Allen Boylan's store, and three streams were played from the side next the alley, which runs from Ivy street through the block. It was a hard fight, but the firemen suc ceeded in mastering the fire in a short time.

I he stock of Allen Boy lan, which consists of dry goods and general merchandise, was damaged only by smoke. The work of the department saved it from damage from fire or water. White's barber shop was somewhat damaged, tho shop, containing about 8150 worth of fixtures, was injured to the amount of perhaps $50. The Central hotel, which is located just above the fire, was filled with smoke to such an extent that those who roomed up there were almost suffocated. The fire department did a magnificent piece of work, and it was their promptitude alone that saved the block, as the fire was such that a few minutes would have given it headway sufficient to have outstripped the efforts of the firemen.

The damage only amounts to a few hundred dollars, and is fully covered by insurance. The origin of the fire is unknown, and must nave been the work of rats and matches, Death of a Child. The Vfar anil half nM of XT. John Toy, foreman of the school of techno a very sad one, and Mr. and Mrs, Toy have the sympathies of many friends ia the death will occur at 3 o'clock today.
