Fol lowing is part of a -press. dispatch' sent out from Atlanta. nnd published yesterday morning: . "Fears of a duel or streef eneoun ter ar-e causink muchi alarm among the friends of~ Editor John Temple Graves. of the Atlanta News, and Co]. James W. English. Jr., chief of the governor's staff, who have in the last few (lays (denouniced each other as liars in published cards in connec tion with litigation over the Atlanta News, which arose from an injunction to prevent Graves frcen lauding him self on its editorial page. " In his last card Col. English said that 'Col. Graves is such a continu ous liar that it is impossible to speci fy the myriad lies he has told during the course of this affair.' Col. Graves had previoesly 'given the lie to the statement made by En~g lish, and added: 'It is impassible to hear the name of English in Georgia without hearing the clanking of con viet chains.' referring to the fact that English has been interested in state convict labor held by contract.''

Do yout know why? Well, I'll tell you. You know. I live in Chicago, and Chicago always is first, so I think it would be just the proper thing to have a Chica go girl be first.

"I ;uppose you will do what I tell you? "Yes, sir.'" "If I told you to say sugar was igh-grade, when it was low, what ,vould you say?" Hesitatingly the boy said, "I'd say "If I told you to say coffee was ure, when it had beans, in it, what vould you say?" "I'd say it." The merchant was nonplussed. 'How much would you work for?". ie inquired very seriously. "One hundred dollars a week.'" the )oy answered in a business like tone. "One hundred dollars a week!" re ;ponded the grocery man. "With percentage after the first Wo weeks.'' said the boy coolly. - You see.'" he went on, first-class iars come high. and if you need them j n your business you'll have to pay :he price; but I'll tell the truth and Iork for three dollars a week.*' The. oy caught the grocer at his owni ~ame and got the job.
