ATLANTA, Sept. 1('..—To watch tho evolution of order from cl: ios, of artistic beauty from unsightly heaps, to see a charming array of art products today, where but a week ago t!iv7e was wilderness of litter, such is the chief pleasure of a visitor to the imposition gromids at present. When I fir.-t- looked over the grounds, I felt a weariness near akin 10 disgust. On every side were unsinlil '.v piles of brick, stone. luiiine'* p-d with plaster .SIT.---

remnants of packing boxes aiul general refuse, while all ne 1 horuughtares bun two •were deep in yellow mud. and the mere which is to be a beautiful crystal lake was a shallow pond, hearing an unpleasant, resemblance to the Platte river in its middle section, where it is a milt! wide and an inch deep. Fortv-eicht hours later I saw a decided improvement, and though the rattle of hammer and saw and the whir of engines were such that one could not hear himself think there was still great pleasure in nc'.irg the rapid progress.

There have been several unbooked for delays, two of which are serious. Late in August began a fortnight of unusually bad weather. Rain fell every day or night, •and the yellow flat was transformed to a eea of thin mud. This delayed all the work, but especially the paving. Tho broken limestone of which the latter is tteing made is from a ledge on the Chica3natiga battlefield, and at the lime the bid jf the company working there was accepted' it was supposed that the facilities for preparing and shipping it were much 'better than they have proved to be. Wet ^roatfior and various accidents have done the rest, and so the paving on tho least frequented ways will be in progress for several days yet. As one walks about the grounds he gets the impression that there is considerable imitation of the arrangements at Chicago, the names and general style being the same, but the managers are oareful to say that while they do not liope to rival Chicago for size the expect to go beyond it in some linesof excellence. There will !•-.• no pretense of having tl.e biggest machines, bur every one will be the very host of its kind and of the late-1 pattern. I have, however, alrcadv noted four features in which this exposition will decidedly excel the Columbian Worlds fair.

A S »arkliug Fountain.

The first is the color fountains. To all who saw the marvelous beauty of those fountains at Chicago this will seem a rash assertion, for one would be ready to swear that was the one feature that neve could be excelled. Nevertheless I think it will be done, for to the experience trained at Chicago the engineers have added some entirely new inventions. By one of these a central spar of light sent up in the middle of a rising column of water is continued by millions oi refractions through every one of the failing drops. By another a stationary cloud is formed above the basin, and on it as a background the many shaded colors appear just as lightning often shows them on the real clouds, with this great advantage of art over nature, that tho engineer can vary his colors. So we shall see on a slowly rising cloud the bars and field of our nation's flag and all tho varying hues of smoke and azure, of green and gold. I have had the process of producing this cloud detailed to me once, but the effect of a single explanation of any scientific wonder on my mind is generally to jumble up whatever natural sense I have on the subject, and all I can remember is that a dense cloud of steam is to be crossed by fine lines of cool spray, which, it is said, will do the business. But manufacturing clouds has come in since I got too old to learn easily. The mere—which Atlanta insists on spelling meer—is to be drained and thoroughly cleaned and then filled with the regular drinking water from the city works.

Another vast improvement will be in tlie topography. Instead of the dreary monotony of Chicago's level, which always gives me the blues in a week, the •visitor find in and around Atlanta, as agreeably diversified a landscape as there is in the world. The successive rise and fall, cutting tlie site into detached knolls of from three to ton acres each, with gentle slopes between, anil the large yards, shade and fruit trees and grass plots, makes the residence portion ot this city appear like a long suburb of retired country seats. Between the city line and the exposition grounds bv one route the visitor traverses an almost primeval forest and by tho other a high level thickset with elegant residences. The same agreeable diversity is seen in the grounds. There is a lovely natural terrace and half amphitheater, and the novoluj-s of the Midway plaisance will be greatlv heightened bv the advantages of the ground. Another feature in which we are promised a great improvement on Chicago is in the fisheries exhibit, and still another is in the department for the.colored people. It is remem Iwjred that this was practically ignored at Chicago, bur, here the projectors have worked at it with the greatest enthusiasir and the result will give visitors a,cheering Index yf tho rapid progress of the race.

A Question of Cost.

It may be well fo sum up at this point. Itwiu facts and figures hitherto publisned JLn part. The department of public comJiirfc has canvassed the city and vicinity tHKH'oughly and registered all pluces availAble. It appears that the present population of Atlanta is almost exactly 108,000, and then are 29 regular hotels ith rates tmigijjg from $1 to £5 per day. There sro «lw JB-'d regular boarding bouses of the AOLMH which IP permanent without refer-

en re to the fair. In addition some 3,000 lodging rooms have been registered, which are to be reported daily to the headquarters at. 88 Wall street, opposite Union depot, to the end that visitors may find accommodations at once. Last of all, scores of halls and tipper floors in warehouses bocu roughly lilted with coos and withstands for cheapno^s and emergency. Commutation tickets can be had at low rates to the neighboring towns, where good looms can be s-eiired. Much is also said about tlio fact that not a hotel«*r boarding house in the city has raised its rates, so on the gener.il range one may see this slrtw at any rate be chooses, may live like a prince for ?5 a day or starve like a gentleman for 50 cents.

A Glance Backward.

The colored people, as I said, design to make the greatest effort of their lives, and as I walk through their department I am contir.r.n!! ressod with the wonderful chan:""-" in "re i!"in's lifetime. Stm rf vr-'iic:\id!is coiin- iv -f Isoyhoo.l v.\-- ii we "1 "4v papers

from this section spotted with queer pictures—a man or woman with black face running at full speed and under it "Run awav from the subscriber $100 reward!" or whatever the reward was. If one wants a measure of the changes, he may find it in this old document, which I copy verbatim. and it is but one of many thousauds of 40 years ago:

LCIOUS WORDS.

Writers Who Can Aflix Tliclr Own Prlcoa to Their Productions.

[Special Correspondence.

BOSTON*. Sept. 1ft.—Somebody has &ait! "even7 man has his price." I iloubt if that is true of all men—at least I should shrink from bebevintr it. But of one class ot men—liier.sry iV.J-II who arc famous— this fact, is well known among certain editors and publishers. Those favored mortals are able to sell all they produce at so much per word, whether the hitter be a little one like "if' or a long one like "incomprehensibility." I fear if I had such a market I should be sorely tempted to write more monosyllabic words than any other kind. Quite a number of us scribblers frequently receive 1 cent a word for our incomparable and inimitable articles. That is the usual rate paid by-tho American Press Association, Harper's and other leading iirms.

When a feilow can command 3 cents a word, he may console himself that he is getting on swimmingly. Miss Marietta Holley, who writes under the nom de plume of Aunt Samanthy and Josiah Allen's Wife, wants and gets §50 for a thousand words. Ella Wheeler Wilcox generally affixes her own price to a practical manuscript according to her estimate of its commercial value. It's probably a good thing for the world at largo that we cannot all be Tennyson, who received as nigh as £20 a line for somo of his metrical works.

Such chaps as H. H. Boyesen, Brander Matthews and Richard Harc]ing Davis can easily place their work at 5 cents a word and sometimes more. The king beo in American letters at present, Mr. WT. D. Howells, charges 20 cents a word for bis lucubrations. Just think of it! The scratching ot his quill must sound like a tumultuous jingle of coin but, no—lie plays on a typewriter. is poor genius only has to bang off words to earn $1, 100 words to earn $20 and so on. Shouldn't you think his mind would get topsy turvy with thoughts about his income? I don't believe it's right for a man to have such a dead cinch as that all by lus lonesome. It's bound to make him vain and give him {firs that even his best friends can not'put up with.

Then there's my friend Bill Nye, who makes with lectures ar.d his pen in tho neighborhood ot Silt HI a week the year round. His is certainly a case ot "laugh and the world laughs with you." It's too easy to makemonevout of literature when you know how. The hard part ot it. l'oi most of us is to master the lesson. $ LLWN MEAD.

Sweets and tlie Tots.

fcugarand candies are had for the baby's teeth as well as for his digestion. A tiny toothbrush, soft and pliant, should be used by tho small child, and the least deoa.y should be warrant for calling on the dentist. To lose one of the first teeth prematurely is a pity. When the second or permanent teeth appear, care must bo exercised that they are not crowded and that they come in evenly. Let tho dentist see the child at least twice a year and oftener if there is need. In this way disfigurement and subsequent pai# will be avoided. Medicino which may blacken the teeth or fnjuro the enamel should be taken through glass tube.

PRAYER.

O thou, at whose command divine The raging storms of ocean cease, This wild, unruly heart of mine

Lead to thine everlasting peace, This heart, that only feels the glow That every changing passion leiids, And, tiumigli its erring love, hx-ings woe

Alike upon itself and friends.

Deliver it, good Lord, I pray From passions' storm. Oh, quench the fire Of sinful iu.-:t and break the sway

Of every passing vain desire, Give it, O Lord, a changeless aim, That, in the contemplation blest, Forgetting doubt and fear and shame,

It may at last find endless rest. —C. M. A. in Academy.

HE KISSED HEK.

"I know a story," said ray friend, "which proves a considerable number of great truths.'' "For instance?" "Well, it proves that circumstances alter cases, and that women are unreasonable beings, and that everything depends upon the point of view. "Anything else?" "It also proves that long engagements are a mistake and that there are some trifles about which a man does better to deceive his wife. "It must certainly be your own story if it proves all that you say," I said. "Why don't you write it out—make a book of it, for example, anil call it 'Every Man His Own Don Juan:'

But my friend protested. "It wasn't quite so bad as that," he said. "I'll tell you about it if you like and you can judge.

So I agreed to listen, and he told me. "Ours was along engagement, but at last we ended it." "You bioko it off?" "No, no, we married. It is not an unusual alternative. I believe, and-on the whole it has turned out very .well. 1 don't complain. Only there have been awkward moments. I .suppose there nearly always are. Moments, for instance, when my wife has asked me if I have ever loved before.'' "There is a stereotyped answer to that question, my friend," I interposed. "I know. I used the cliche. I WHS even prepared if necessary to hq,ve the cliche printed and framed and glazed and hun£ up in the bedroom. But the matter did not end there. Pauline wa always fishing for confessions. Had I always been faithful to her during that long engagement in thought as well as act? If not, I must tell her—I must confess. She was sure there hadn't been anything serious, and she would forgive me. I mustn't think that she wanted to live in a fool's paradise. "And do you mean to tell me that you are actually capable of believing a woman when she says that she doesn't want to live in a fool's paradise?" "Not now, not now. I 6hould always use the cliches now. But I was bolder then." "Move rash, you mean." "More rash, then, if you prefer the word. You see, the truth was so-very unimportant, and she might be imagining something so very serious. So I thought that if I told her it would clear the clouds away." "You didn't understand that women are happier in wondering what is behind the clouds than discovering definite spots upon tne sun:" "Not then. Besides it was rather a funny story in its way, and I relied on Pauline's sense of humor. She had often told me that slio had more sense of humor than the average woman. "Every woman," I insisted, "is an average woman in her appreciation of a certain kind of funny story. But what was tho exact story that you had to tell?"

And he told me all about it, quoting, so far as his memory served him, tho exact words in which he had told it to his wite. 'It. is nothing so very terrible, Pauline,' I said. 'Such a trifle that, till you questioned me, I had forgotten all about it.' 'But you must tell me,' she urged. 'Oh, yes, you must tell moor I shall be afraid that it is something dreadful!' 'All! Well then, in that easel must confess,' I said. 'It was-*a long time ago, when wo were engaged—that summer, you know, when I was traveling in Switzerland. I was staying for a few days at the little hotel that stands beside the falls of Tosa, in the Val Farmazza. There was a girl there—a beautiful girl like you, dear, only in a different way—a sweet, helpless, clinging little thing, with a complexion lake' a peach in bloom, and the very loveliest auburn hair.' "Pauline interrupted. 'You mean red hair. I hate it! I think it very ugly!' she exclaimed. "My friend, that jarring note ought to have warned you,!' I remarked. "I know. It frightened me, and I tried to stop, but Pauline would not let me."

And he resumed his narrative. 'I hate red hair too, as a general rule, because your hair is black,' I told her. 'But it pleased mo then. You see, I was travelmg""\juite by myself, and I was feeling lonely and was glad to lind some one v'hom I could talk to. So I broke the ice at dinner, and afterward the girl and I always chatted with each other when we met.' "'You quite forgot to tell her that you were engaged to nie, 1 suppose?' Pauline inquired. "I had of course. That was the whole point of the story, and it was inartistic of Pauline to pretend to be surprised. I did not. reproach her for that, however, but continued. 'No, dearest. If I had told her, there would luwe been no confession for you to wring from nie now. If I had told her, she would never have walked out with mo that night to watch tho moonlight shining on the waterfall. But sfie came, and we sat on a rock together listening to its music. You must not bo angry with me, Paulino, for I have been tsorry ever since. You must rather pity mo for being weak. For tho whole air seenled full of poetry and passion, and

she was very pretty, and she nestled very close to me, and then—forgive me, Pauline, I hardly knew what I was doing, and it all happened such a long time ago—then I put my arm round her waist, and she let her bead fall ormgi? shoulder ai'd looked up with her lips a little parted expecting to be kissed. Ayd then'— ,. 'And then?' Pauline repealed •v «And then, Pauline, I remenibefjpd you. It seemed to me that, through the hazy white mist of the broken water., I saw your beautiful gray eyes lookirfg a"t me sadly, reproachfully. I was ashamed and horrified. I wished that I had never met this girl.' 'So you never kissed her after all!' "She said it jubilantly, and I should have lied. It was the psychological moment for a lie. It was better that she should misjudge me than that I should give her pain. And yet it hurt me to be misjudged and I protested. 'Pauline, Pauline, how could I help kissing her?' I said. 'It was wtoia^. ot me—I know it.1 was wrong of have gone so far. I hated myself lor it, but liow could I draw back? What would she have thought of me if I had drawn back then? No, no, Pauline. I longed not to kiss her, but I was obliged to. It was the penalty that I had to pay for doing wrong. Tell me, Pauline, what else could I have done?' "But Pauline knew very well what else 1 could have done. "'You ousjht. to have told her you were engaged to me,' she said. 'Pauline, Paulino! When I had in my weakness and folly led her on so far that her head was resting on my shoulder, and her mouth was waiting for a kiss, you say that I should have suddenly turned rounfl and told her that I was engaged to you. I could not be so cruel. I do not believe that any man living could have been so cruel. In the beginning I meant to kiss her for my pleasure, and in the end I had to kiss her as my duty. It ended there, for I Wt'Jtfc down to Domo d'Ossola the next morning, and I have never seen her since. But I insist, Pauline, that my duty— my solemn, sacred duty—was to kiss her then. Imagine tho poor girl's feelings if I had drawn back from tlie kiss to tell her about you.' "But Pauline was inexorable. 'You had no business to consider her feelings,' she said, 'when you were engaged to me.'

The story was over. My friend paused for a minute and then said: "There, doesn't that prove that circumstances alter cases, and that women are unreasonable beings':" "Perhaps," I answered. "But I prefer the other moral—that long engagements area mistake, and that there are some trifles about which a man d««s Mfcter to deceive his wife. "—Francis Gribble in New Budget.

Garrick as a Manager.

Many of Garrick's actors thought themselves in certain characteis superior to their manager. Barry as Romed? Quin as Othello and Foute as Bayes were considered by their own adherents to surpass Garrick.

Mrs. Woffington's Sir Henry Wildair yas so much applauded that Garrick abandoned the part, and, in fact, for the sake of harmony he often gave up favorite parts to other members of the company. Mrs. Sidilons. who acted at. Prury Lane duving Garrick's last season, complained that' she was keprfc through the jealousy of her manager. Wo entirely agree with Mr. Knight that there could be no foundation for such a eh urge.

In a description of Garrick's last season at Drury Lane in Smith's "Book For a Rainy Day." we find that in Garrick's last nnie performances Mrs. Siddons acted six times and ahwivs in leading parts. As a manager Garrick was liberal, and his rule was firm and just. Even Mrs. Abington, for many years the most intractable of his subjects and a constant thorn in his side, was obliged to comply with liis ordess. "Mr. Garrick and his profession," suid Johnson, "have been equally indebted to each other. His profession made linn rich, and he made his profession respectable. ''—Athenaeum.

The Orator.

The Rev. Dr. A. D. Mayo, in a recent interesting address, quoted James Walker, a former president of Harvard, as saying, "The oration will die with Mr. Robert C. Winthrop." But the oration in no sense died with Mr. Winthrop. What is more, the oration, we may be sure, will never die until hu•man nature is fundamentally different from what it is at present. It is the fashion nowadays to sneer at. eloquence. One might as well sneer at music or poetry. Walker's reference to Winfhrop was viae, considered as a compliment. Taken literally, it will not hold water. It rooallii an assertion made by Mr. Howells a few years ago that the stories had all been told. In fact, hasty generalizes a?-! always with us. People are more critical r:\an they used to be, they are more eusuv bored, they have less time for anyth.:ig than they ever had before. Nevertheless the man with a genius for oratorv, the man who has something to say and who knows how to say it—who can s:,y it with a silver tongue—is a perennial. He will alwayscommand an audience.—Boston Commonwealth.

Mozart.

Mozart had a memory for music and for nothing else. On attending the papal mafss at the Sistine chapel he was greatly impressed with the musuail service and asked for a copy, but was* told none could be given him, as the music was not, allowed to go out. He went to the next service, listened attentively, went away and wrote down tlie whole from memory. When "Don Giovanni" wa? first performed, there was not time copy a part for the harpsichord, so Mozart conducted the entire opera, about three hours long, and played a harpsichord accompaniment to the songs and choruses without a note of music assist his° memory.

Weariness.

O little feet, that such long years I Must wander on through hopes and fears, Must ache and bleed beneath your load, 1 I, nearer to the wayside ir.n, vhiere toil shall cease and rest begin,

Am weary, thinking of your road.

O little hands, that, weak or strong, Have still to serve or rule so long, Have still so long to give or ask, I, who so much with book luid pen Have toiled among my fellow men,

Ain weary, thinking of your task.

O little hearts, that throb and beat With such impatient, feverish heat, Such limitless and strong desire, Mine, that has so long glowed and burned Witli passions, into ashes turned,

Now covers and conceals its fire.

How lurid looks this soul of mine! —Longfellow.

Loving Echoes.

Never to be lorgot, #r, if eluding can be remembered, It is only for its sting. But loving words, like songs of birds,

Are forever choing.

Look for the fragrant roses, Not for tho thorns and weeds. For the crimson sky when night- is nigh

And the golden sun recedes— Glistens the starry Dipper, .- hparkles the Jlilkv Way Through midnight trees the clear eye sees

Glimpses of the dawning day.

Kisses, but no upbraidimrs The smile, but not the trown, For the love must be dee]) that- afloat will keep

If hardships press it down. Lilu the falling dews of summer Or tlvc welcome autumn rain, Kind words may How trom the lips and go

To the sines of the heart again.

Praise, and your friend will hear you Blame, and he heeds you not, For a word of praise in the memory stays,

Never to be lorgot, But if chiding bo remembered /, It is only for its sting, And loving words, like songs of birds,

Are forever echoing. —Julia May in New York Recorder.

Iiife's Masquerade.

And what is lite but one gay masquerade, In which the masked figures come and go, Where-all the brilliant scenes dissolve and fade,

As fleeting shadows, passing to ar.d fro, And all the people the merry game Keep well their masks before their hearts and lives? Though some seek honor, wealth or power or fame,

Each one's a masker, while he works and strives. -rw The maiden with a coy and timid grace

The youth more bold, but yet an actor still The dame, the granilsire, keep before thenface

The mask of life, which they hold firmly till Death comes to end the senseless masquerade, Then over all the m.isk ot death is laid. —Albert Hardy.

True Love.

Love's gifts? Love has no guts, for if love give Then must wo stand apart a space that one May give and one may take. But. thou anil I, Who, loving, live so close, where have we room To give? Close in thy heart am I, and thou In mine, and never gitt dot-li pass from mo To thee, or thee tome, lor, lo! tve love, And, loving, know 110 want, but of more love, Ami more and mere. And aye it shall be more, For as we move toget-h -r through the days, And ,ioy of work we k.iow and joy of rest, New measures make we for our love, and, making, Fill full, and so the old o'erflow. Aye, we Havo love it-sell! What reck we of love's gifts?
