Atlanta, Ua., Nov. 22?The Journal this afternoon says that plaus have been consumated here for the erection of ten plants foi the manufacture of cotton seed hulls into paper of different grades. Robert Thomas of New York, at present in this city, says that the scheme is beiug backed by the National Saw company, w;th $5,000,000 capital and that work will be begun in putting up the plants in about 30 days. He says he is also backed by the Stand ard Oil company. It is the intention to have the factories scattered well throughout the cotton belt, and they will extend from Texas to North Carolina. The plants will run with a capacity of 125 to 200 tons each Many people worry because tuey Denoye they have heart disease.

Crawford Iiros. d-w s IIats On or Off i According to tlie etiquette ol the day, it is not requisite that a man shall remove his hat in the presence of a woman in ;i public thoroughfare or conveyance. No one thinks of a man's going bareheaded in a street car or a railroad car or a cab because he is in the company7 of women. The elevator of a business building or of a hotel is certainly a public coiivey&iice, and the corridor of a business building or a hotel is certainly a public thoroughfare, ftrgo, in our opinion, courtesy toward the fair sex doe? not require a man to remove bis hat in either place because there happens to be a woman present Having said, however, that courtesy does not require the removal of a man's hat under the circumstances recounted, we do not mean to disparage in the slightest degree the chivalrous intent of the man who does remove his head covering If you feel that you ought to take oil your hat in the elevator do so If you .are uncomfortable witli if nn imt it nft nt Tliou. things are largely matters ol comfort. In New York mer keep their hats or caps on witli a persistence that is somewhal shocking to the southerner If the man in Gotham ha? any d >ubt about whether In should have his hat in his hand or on his head, you will not find it in his hand. He take* as much rope as the law will give him On the contrary, it has not been very long since it was the proper thing in Char leston, S. C , for a gentleman to stand with his head un covered during all the time lu was conversing with a lady even if he met her in the street and there may be, for all wr know, hundreds of stately Soutl Carolinians who observe tha pretty but unbygeinic distort to this very day.

Craw ford Broe. d-w-a i'aui Kruger Speaks to Peopli ot France. i Maiseilles, Nov. 22.?Todaj ' proved a triumph for Mr. Krugei r such as eveu the Boer delegatei and his most ardeut admireri failed to anticipate. The deliriuir of enthusiasm which mnrku every step of his progress iron , the time he landed until the ho tel was reaehed was a revelatioi > even to the people of Marseillei themselves. It fully equalled 1 | it did not surpass the frai>ti< ; demonstrations of patriotisu with which France opened hei {arms to Maj. Marchand at Touler r, on his return from Fashoda. An assembly of such massei i exceeding even the most sanguim estimate might perhaps be partlj , explained by the ceremonioui i of the bish?>p of Marseilles, in eluding an imposing religioui procession from the Cathedra i but nothing can minimize tin the spontaneous.explosion of sen 1 timent displayed Mr. Kruger b;i rno enure population ot the tirs port and one of the largest citiei of France. Yet the grandeur of this dem on?t rat ion, perhaps, ranks secon< 1 in importance to the empiiati< manifestos of ,lnc compromise,' , which Mr. Kruger delivered in i , low voice but one vibrating witl . emotion, accompanied by ener i getic gestures ol the right hand i stirring the hearts ot all svithii i hearing. The last sentences of his decla ration were uttered with a vigo and decision which bore out hi reputation as the incarnation o iron will and stubborn resistance llis more delivery of a declara ' tion ol such far reaching impor ; t tance testifies to the independent of his character, as it came as i i surprise even to his most inlimati political advisers who up to the last, were in ignorance of liii 1 determination.
