While here today the Inspector gen eral took notes of everything that was needed, and said that he would recom mend that these things be furnished at once, so that our boys Rhould not ueed for anything.

Realising the value of such an atlas The Augusta Herald ar ranged with the publishers fqr a special edition.

It is understood that Mrs. latscelles is here incident to the sealing of the large estate of her father. W'beiy askol about this she said that the estate would probably bn settled lu a short limn and fell sure the mailer would he properly arranged. Mrs. latsoelles spoke interestingly of Mexico. “There are a number of Georgians there," she said, ‘ and 1 know many of them. You would be surprised to see the largo number of southern people in Mexico. The climate of the plate Is magnificent and I am very fond of (ha country.” From Atlanta, Mrs. GasceUes will go to Fitzgerald, but she will probably remain here for sev eral days in order to recover from t lie fatigue of her trip fro tnMexico. She appears very much the same as she did before she left Georgia. She Is a pretty little woman of rather small stature and is a decidedly interesting conversationalist. She appears to_be very fond of Georgia and gets enthusi astic when speaking of this state. The statement of Mrs. latseelles to the ef fect that Lord Beresford will return to Georgia will be read with interest. He is known by reputation throughout the state and his career in Fitzgerald wa* at one time ail the talk.

FIRST GEORGIA RFO.riENT. The Boy* I Ike Their New C*mp at koovvitle Better. Knoxville, Tenn., Aug. 26. The iiham <s are now that the F.rat Geor gia regiment will soon lie brigaded with th* Fourth Tenn esse*, which was mustered her* and never left. If this assignment is made to All out the First brigade on the Second division, the Tennessee boys and the Georgia boys will be next door neighbor* The boys like their new camp better every day and the Crackers are favor ites wirh the people of Knoxville. Some of the Georgia papers have published that the men of the First Georgia were very anxious to be mustered out. From all accounts this Is true In the ease of u few of the men. but the regiment, as a whole, seems anxious to stay In ser vice, and do garrison duty. The men do not have much to say In regard to the matter and It seems that reports sent South have been terrtbly exagger ated. Col. Lnwton was asked about the statement made through the press that his men desired to be mustered out, and replied: “I have no Information on the sub ject except what I yee in the newspa pers. None of my men have communi cated with the ofllqera on the subject, and this is the only channel through which such communications should go. I have never undertaken to say wheth er the first Georgia desires to be mus tered out or not, and for two reasons: First. I do not know, and on this sub ject 1 should not undertake to speak for my men without first knowing their opinions, but. secondly and chiefly, be cause I think no true soldier should ex press such wishes, one way or the oth er, until he is asketl to do so by com petent authority, and we have not been asked. When we are asked, if ever, 1 will take steps to inform myself and will then answer the question through regular military channels. I hope it is not trug that-my mpjt have signed any such unsoldieriy statement as are at tributed to them in t,be press.” 1 An Eminent Man. Hon. Gooseneck McDonald acquitted himself with credit the convention of the Texas republicans. Hon. Goose neck McDonald is uhe of the roming men of the Lone Star State. —Wash- ington I’ost. i THE THIRD GEORGIA It Orta ill? Will Hr nan liurt AH siawr.

Sliced tomatoes and onions made up the bill of fare and no feast was ever more enjoyed.

VALDOSTA’S NEW RAILROAD. The Right of Way Cleared For Ten Mile* Vaidnata. 0# Aug It - Work on tha Atlantic, Valdosta and Western road Is ' progressing rapidly toward this city. | The rtgbt-cf-way has been cleared for ten miles this aide of Haylcw and con* jtrarta for building most of the remain der of the line have been let. The rainy | weather baa Interrupted the work eon- I sidcrably of lota, but now that the , rains have ceased it will be pushed 1 along with great rapidity. The road will have a straight track ; for a distance of thirty-four miles from | Valdosta and will he, perhaps, the l longest air line In the state, with the exception of the Plant system from here to Way cross there not being a crook in that for a distance of sixty j five miles. The rails which are being laid on the Atlantic, Valdosta and Western are seventy pound steel rails 1 and trains are running over the sev enty miles of track already completed at splendid speed. It is understood that 1 the new road will have friendly con nection here with the Southern railway i and If so. It means that the Southern ! is going to make a stronger bid than jever before for Florida traffic The dis tance between At’.nnta and Jackson -1 vllle will be shortened about thirty 1 ml'es bv this new line. ! The Valdosta Southern road Is wlth ;ln eight miles of Madison, Fla., and will probably be comnleted before No vember. Work upon the road Is being pushed through every day. Rattler Killed In Valdosta. Valdosta. Ga., Aug. 26.—One of the largest rnttlesnukes seen In this sec tion this year was killed within the corporate limits by a son of Rev. C. H. Driver. The monster snake was ac companied by Vwenty-three little ones and when young Driver came upon them the old snake opened her mouth and the little ones ran dcivn her throat like "chute-the-chute" riders. The lad got a rail and quickly dispatch ed the old snake and then turned his attention to the little ones, which were wiggling and writhing about on the ground. All of them were killed. .The old snake measured six feet In ! length and had fifteen rattles. It was ! killed within a hundred yards cf Mr. Driver’s residence on Ashley street.
