TilE ATLAN r fX"^kmmAJN. Life Prominent Citizens in Every Walk of Endorse the Candidacy of I ROBT. F. MADDOX FOR COUNTY COMMISSIONER To the Voters of Fulton County: We earnestly appeal to our fellow voters and tax payers of Fulton County to join with us in electing Hon. Robt. F. Maddox County Commis sioner to succeed Hon. Hubert L. Culberson. • The County Board fixes the tax rate for every tax payer, rich and poor, in Fulton County, and pays out the County revenues, w 7 hich amount yearly to a very large sum, and besides is charged with the duty of building, paving and keeping in repair the public highways, the erection and care of the public buildings, and generally with administering the affairs of this populous and growing county. Every tax payer is interested in keeping down the tax rate and in having an economical business administration of the County’s affairs. We feel that the County is fortunate in having an opportunity to secure the services in this position of a ,man of Mr. Maddox’s high character, business ability and large experience. , He is not tied to any faction and would administer this responsible trust in the interest of the tax payers, large and small, of all sections of the bounty. He would be the Commissioner for the whole County and for the whole people, and not for any mere section or class. He is worthy, capable, and will prove impartial and efficient in the public service. We urge you to go out and vote for him on October 3d. E. Woodruff. Sam D. Jones. B. D. Turner. A. Fugazil & Co. C. V. Doolittle Co. L. D. McMillan Seed Co. B. C. DeLeon. J. Lee Barnet. F. M. Sutton.

Dauphin Islands It Is now proposed to remove the women and children to Mobile, housing them In the Providence Infirmary. As conditions now exist the unfortunates are without shelter, as many as 47 living In one room, and the chances of epidemic growing. Haln which has been falling has add- rfi to the sufferings along the coast. Father Shea, who ts In charge of the Relief work at Coden and vicinity, Is providing for as many at the limited •applies permit. Relief Will Be General. It Is now believed that the larger number can bo cared for within the next few days and made possible by assistance from other cities. Dona* ■ions from a distance are expected to reach here tomorrow and then the re- ■ lef will be more general. Conservatives estimate that It will be at least ten weeks before condi tions nrc normal along the coast. In file meantime plans are to be made for furnishing the t oyster catchers In the Islands with boats that they may re fume their traffic and be self-support Bark Gone But Craw Safe. ^ At an Immense citizens' meeting ' ast nl Hht It was decided to establish 1 commissary on the coast and one acre, as the relief uyrk could be car ried on more rapidly. The cutter «inona left here today with stores and provisions for the sufferers, which will he distributed In the outlying districts. Captain J. M.

The government’ll Joes to light hounes, channel lights and vessels and other maritime necessities along the gulf will be more than $2,000,000. Thii Is a very conservative estimate con sidering the damage here and In Pen sacola. The railroads are big financial suf ferers by the wind and water. Their loss alone will be in the millions. The first train from the north over the Louisville and Nashlvlle reached Mo bile today. Service to the city was re established upon a limited scale. No service will be established to New Or leans before Friday nt the eArllest. Road Subscribes $1,000. The people of Mobile are subscribing to the relief fund, notwithstanding their own losses. The Mobile and Ohio subscribed $1,000 today through Vice President E. L. Russell. In the words of Mayor Lyons, of Mobile: "What the coast people need Is provisions, clothing and medicines and it is needed quickly.” 8torm Did Not Matsrislizs. The terrific storm which was pre dicted to strike Mobile and vicinity last night did not nrtiterialize. Weath er conditions, however, are still un settled and there Is no telling when a storm may break loose. Nearly every family In Mobile had some one on watch until daylight In order to sound the alarm in case another death-deal ing tropical storm made Its appear ance. A report Is current here that nearly, 100 United States soldiers were drown ed and Fort McRae, near Pensacola. Fla., was washed away by the hurri cane W’hlch swept the sea In shore. Two additional denths are reported from Heron Bay. They are William W. Wellberger and Samuel Hahn, who were drow'iied off the schooner Never- tell. Their bodies were washed ashore. Bride Now • Widow. Stories of narrow escapes from the Btorm district are coming In here hourly. Robert Stafford, who has Just arrived, reports three additional deaths by drowning from the schooner Ethel. Stafford floated on a log for 12 hours and was washed up on the beach at Grand Bay, a distance of 12 miles from where he started. Stafford’s escape Is remarkable, as he has only one leg. The drowned men were Gharles Lit tle Greei., who leaves atbride of one week; O. C. Pag and J. Martin. The Louisville and Nashville rail road has a force of 2,000 men at work now on tho New Orleans section TWENTY-FOUR DEAD; LOSS IN PENSACOLA, FLA, Hundreds of Laborers Arc at Work Rebuilding Ruined City. By B. S. BERNARD. Pensacola, Fla., Oct. 2.—Great alarm was felt here yesterday when advice was received from Washington that another storm headed this way from the san\e direction as the previous one, but further advice partially banished all fear. Thousands of men are already at work clearing the debris and rebuild ing the demolished places, and it Is be lieved that In a few days everything will be smooth again. The saloons remain closed and abso lute order prevails. The citizens and chamber of commerce committees ‘as sisted by ministers of all denomina tions are doing good work, and thou sands of dollars’ worth of clothing, food and shelter havo already been provided for the destitute. More than one thousand persons have already been relieved. Great fear is felt, how ever, that disease will set In, as It Is believed many bodies are still under the debris. Every precaution Is being taken to prevent this. The police are arresting all negroes who refuse to go to work. The Louisville and Nash ville brought In 500 negroes today to rebuild the wharves and otherwise re pair the damages sustained. The revised list of dead now reaches 24. Governor Broward has wired 5iay- or Bliss offering to issue a proclama tion for relief, but It Is believed that no outside help will be necessary. L083 IN PENSACOLA WILL REACH $5,000,000. Special to The Georgian. , Pensacola, Fla, Oct, 2.—Three addi tional deaths from the hurricane have been reported, swelling the list to 33. The mayor has issued a statement that the estimate of $5,000,00») loss Is con servative. It is understood that Miss Parsons, the young lady reported as having been drowned near Mary Esther, has been found ullve. Destitute Cared For. In the city every person Is being cared for, and no aid will be asked from outside cities. Many prominent men and women are working with the relief committee and providing food and clothing for the destitute, and ev ery able-bodied man who has no work will be compelled to work. There Is an abundance of work for laborers, the Louisville and Nashville alone having over 1,000 men at work, and the officials propose to see that there are no loafers or Idlers at this time. The saloons are still closed by order of the mayor, and the club rooms were ordered to close their bars. Two Trains Washed Away. The Louisville and Nashville learned that two solid train loads of freight, with the engine, had been lost about ten miles from the city on the P. A A. division. The trains were left on the tracks by the crews, when the water put out the engine fires, and were washed Into the bay and lost, the en gines being burled In the sand. It Is believed that fully one-third of the vessels benched can be gotten off. Rear Admiral (’apps, chief of the bureau of construction and repair, ar rived here tonight, and will go to the navy yard to look over the situation and determine W'hat Is best to be done there with the many war vessels and docks that have been wrecked. Build Greater Pensacola. It is known that the destroyed por tions of the city, wharves and mills will not only bo rebuilt, but In the place of the old ones will be erected larger and more commodious ones. Im mense saw-mill plants will take the places of those destroyed, new and handsome buildings are to be erected at once on the sites of those so badly damaged as to be condemned and a new Pensacola will be emerged. In the course of a few months, from the wreck of old Pensacola. Within a few' days the Chapm Merritt Wrecking Company, of New York, will have Its entire fleet of wreckers working here.

Tuesday the offi cers and privates were busy buying such fhlngs as they will need on the Island. MISS WESTMORELAND PISSED AWAY TUESDAY It Is rather unusual for a wife to prefer that she be maltreatad by her husband before other people, rather than while they are alone, but that seems to be the preference of Mrs. Edna Farr, who Is asking from the superior court a divorce from A. O. Farr. She allegen that since their marriage April 21, 1899, her husband has been very cruel to her In m».ny different ways, and that all this Is "harder t^ bear because it is always done In se cret. behind closed doors.” She con- The funeral will take place Wednesday eludes her charges with the statement morning at 10:30 o’clock at the real- that "when there were other persons 1 denee of T.

"I believe her slipper has been more effective than her hand." FUNERAL SERVICES OF CLINTON I Body of One of Atlanta’s Pioneers Is Laid to Rest. 8UNFLOWER PHILOSOPHY. From The Atchison (Kane.) Globe. No one ever succeeded In training the dog out of a dog. A poor speller Is all right these days; he’s In advance of the college profes sor. Ever notice that "funny" looking people have "funny" looking company?- The greater thing In the world Is po liteness. And no schooling Is necessary tn be agreeable; simply have a little onslderatlon for others, and be quiet n«l modest. After a long life of usefulness In th» business, political and religious world* Clinton Independence Brown, father of Col. Walter R. Brown, died at hii home, 325 South Pryor street, on Sun day night.

Absinthe Bonbons, From The Philadelphia Record. "Look out for absinthe In bonbons," says a large candy dealer. "They ar« on the market and they are loaded I doubt If any are on sale as yet It this city, but they have been offered t< us and I have seen samples of them I have no doubt they will soon be seet here. It’s likely that their stay wit be short, however, for the authorltlei and the temperance people will sure!] be after them. Four of the kind o; bonbons that were sent to us woulc make a pretty stiff drink of absinthe and an innocent customer might ge laid out cold before he knew It. Thos- sent to us were from Europe, where I understand, their manufacture ha resulted from certain restrictive leg Islatloo concerning the sale of alco hoi." In real life the only difference be tween a "romantic” wedding and tl ordinary wedding Is that the poll, court reporter writes up the “romantl- wedding for the paper and the socle; reporter writes up the ordinary kind.
