From the Atlnnt.i Joiirnul. A well known musician, who writes a very Illegible hand, once sent aa unusual ly hopeless scrawl to n friend. The lat ter studied it a minute, gnve It up la ile spelr, mid then sat down nnd wrote In reply: "1 shall be most happ to dine with you tomorrow nt C. Kindest regards to your wife, etc." In less than half an hour his friend appeared, htenthlcs, at his door. "There's some misunderstanding," said he. anxiously. "I wrote you a note ask ing If you eotihl play tho plnno part of the 11 lo nt Jtrown's recital, nnd here you have sent me an acceptance of a dinner Invitation to dinner.

They Propose to Make an Example of the Persons Responsible for tho False and Malicious Article Printed In a Contemporary Sur prise Party Tendered to Rev. and Mrs. A. L. Ramor at Their Home Tuesday Evening Programme of Tonight's Muslcalc. That the proverbial noqro la lurkliu: Romevhete In Hie vicinity of the Col umbia Chemical company seems very I'vldenl, nnd that the company Is (jo ins to locate that Kolf-snine colored Kcntlontun nnd urcnk thi'lr veiiKi-unee upon hltn Is ntlll more evident. The leadiiiK topic of conversation on thU side, especially anions the firemen, Is "what docs the iirliclf which appeared In yesterday mornliiB's issue of 11 con temporary, mean, and who Inspired It." Thcie I?, Indeed, ijolntj to bf a "nhnkliiu up," but the phuke will be vImU-mI upon the author of that arti cle If the law will furnlKh the power. In It.i entirety, the article Is branded in wt emphatically tu a deliberate falsehood. All day yesterday attempts weie made to ulscovci the identity of tli- perron furnishing the fncts stutrd in the article but the efforts were vain, and It 1h paid, that nothlnu could be ascertained from the uillre ot tho paper In which thf article appeared. Due of the lendlnu statements In the article is that Ktifjlnoer Meyers "used some lanjiiuiKc which Is mildly de scribed n:i Indecent," when refused admission to the residence of the late Mr. Ilnll, ut illi South Main avenue, Thursday lust, though the company had been railed out by still alnrm. Emjlmer Meveis not only denier thin but has three credible witnesses to corroborate bis dnlal. The gentleman who opposed Klifjlneer Meyers' en trance. In telling of the occurrence to I'. Tribune representative, did not say that Mr. Meyers had spoken In nil Indecent manner, thoutrh asked con cerning that very thing. In reference to the demand of Charles Corless, sr., who Is president, of the company, for an Investigation, It appears that Mr. Corless' Intentions were misunderstood. His desli'- was to show by an Investigation that En glneer Meyers bad only attempted to do bis duty and that when he wn refused entrance to tin hou-.o. had quietly submitted, stating that Hie matter iwiti'd be referred to Chief lllckey. Mr. Corless explained hlB po sition to a number of the members of the compnny nt an informal meeting. held laFt evening. Moreover, he Is highly Indignant at the Interpretation given his act by the paper In speaking of it. That the two permanent men of the company, Meyers and Pethlck, nre at odds with each other, Is denied by botb men, and the fact that this com pany Is considered In a sense a model organization lends color to their de nial. No better quarters, apparatus or conduct of the employed men can be found In the department, so there must be barmony. ., icffivnce to the candidacy of I.ouls l'nrry for the proposed position of third permanent man. issue Is also taken on the ground that the state ments not only relied upon them as a company but upon Mr. Parry himself. That Party withdrew his candidacy ut the time Pelhlek wnt, appointed is right enough also, it Is true that he was In sense in line for the proposed additional (dace when It, was created. Kince then Mr. Parry practically joined the Thirteenth regiment and this re moves blni from the field as lie can hardly come back until his regiment does. Of course, Mr. Parry, being 11 way, is not able to speak for him self, and judging from what he told a Tribune reporter when here on a furlough, about three weeks ago, he would not be responsible for the im plied meaning of the article leferrlng to him. P.efore I.ouls Parry went with the leglment there was no other can didate spoken of, but since It seems ut'tcily Impossible for him to return for some time, several arc hustling for the proposed third permanent man ship. The members of the company leglment there was on other can seure a discharge, as was stated he had every assurance of it. Fin thermore, the company resents any outside Interference with their prl late affairs and propose to teach some person or persons n lesson. No re ports of trouble of any kind have been reported either to Chief lllckey or Foreman D. U. Price; and reports of this kind are only mnde to the chief through the foreman, according to n binding department rule. Concerning the lire nt the late Mr. Hall's residence, no report has been made to the chief, simply because the foreman repurts on the first of each month concerning the company's work during the previous month.
