4 HIBERNIANS ARE AT PEACE, Official Decision of the Na tional Arbitrator of of the Ancient Order. fiECEIVED l« Wffll After Much Strife a Reconciliation Has Been Effected Delegation May Go in Special Boat. Th national convention of the Reunited Order of the Ancient Lider of Hibernians will convene in Trenton, N. J., June 27th, «nd delegates will go from the Macon lodge. The official decision from the Right Reverend Arbitrator, addressed to the joint committee, has been received in Macon. ■A jwrtion of the decision reads as fol lows: “It has been urged that certain Ameri can cities are replete with revolutionary memories, and that this entitles them to consideration in making selection. Gentle men, I most willingly concede the force of this argument. It will, indeed, be a glo rious day when Irish and Irish-Americans, meeting here in America, on soil rendered sacred. In revolutionary days, by the blood of our fathers, will lovingly entwine the memories of the heroic deeds of Erin and A America du Is crimsoned with their heart’s blood and performed for “life, lib erty and the pursuit of happiness.” “Therefore, I feel that Providence guid ed the steps of your honorable committee, seeking for union, to New Jersey. Eor here are th.* historic bat lb' fields of Princeton, ■Monmouth and Trenton. I love, indeed, to think that Now Jersey was among the first of the sturdy colonies to raise the standard of Independence; that her hills mid valleys have been hallowed by the -blood of revolutionary heroes; that when the destinies of this country were shroud ed in darkness; when the spirits of the fathers hung heavy and dejected,; when defeat after defeat had tried their patience and taxed their endurance, the victory at Trenton gave I Item new strength and cour age; and that in this city was seen, for the first timt tiie bright star of hope ris ing als.ve the darkened horizon of Amer ica's brilliant future. “Familiar mi we are with those glorious deeds, must not 1 and my devoted flock l>e proud of tiie fact ttiat my cathedral is built on the ground first dedicated to free dom and then to religion by the Lord of Hosts, and that. its Gothic spire, while pointing out the way to heaven, is alike a onuinrni to civic and -Christian virtue! Yes, gentlemen, be assured Providence guided you to Trenton; here the work of union was begun, mid here let it be en duringly cemented.” Arrangements are being made to char ter a steamship to take the Georgia dele gation to New York for the convention. lz>w rates ore assured ami it is expected that « large number will represent this state in the convention, which promises to be the most memorable in the history of Hibernian Ism.

HELD DM FOB IDE CUI Twenty-three to the Gang, and as Many More Fined and Dismissed. When the recorder’s court was called to order this morning it was evident that something more than usual was to be heard. Such was the case. There was no special hearings of interest, bus the docket was one of the largest that has been re corded in months. Long before his honor, Judge Freeman, appeared at the court room a large crowd of curious people and witnesses had gath ered. The court room was packed to suf focation. Persons who had been arrested could not all be given room in the court room, so some of them were put in the general assembly room and some were given place in the chief’s room. There were 43 cases for hearing on the docket with many more which were con tinued from last week. While the court was in session several more cases were brought in, and it was after one o’clock when court adjourned. The larger portion of the cases were for vagrancy, and in every instance they were given thirty days on the gang. The majority of those were white men. Twenty three will be carried out to the gang this afternoon. The scone at the city hall resembled that of Christmas was wont to appear a few years ago. It far surpassed that pre sented the Christmas just passed. Jolly good humor prevailed in the crowd, and as the drowsy hackman told how the judge had looked through two pairs of spectacles and fined him ten dollars for going to sleep on duty, the crowd laughed, for it is a belief among some of the colored pop ulationthat when his honor looks at them through only one pair of glasses the fine will be much lighter. Every class of humanity was represented in the assembly of mourners on the bench. Both white and colored women, small boys for loitering and the pickaninny for larceny. The session of the court yielded a good sum to the city and several were bound over to have a hearing before a higher tribunal. A Clever Trick. It certainly looks like it, but there is really no trick about it. Anybody can try it who has lame back and weak kidneys, malaria or nervous troubles.

From beginning to end “The Dazzler,” as 'it comes to us this year, is full of fun. There is a steady laugh from start to fin ish, and some really new things are offer ed to the public. The weather on Saturday was such as to keep away large numbers of people who had made up their minds to see “The Daz zler” and as the company had an extra day to book, they determined that Macon was about as good a place as could be found, so Manager Horne, who knows a good thing when he sees it, grabbed “The Dazzler” and held to it. The company is good. The girls are graceful, the voices special ties new and really enjoyable and the jokes new. What more does an audience want? New ■songs and a new program of specialties will be offered today and both perform ances should be crowded. i A GREAT ORGANIZATION. Unusual interest in musical circles is aroused over the engagement of 'the Bos tonians at the Academy of Music on next Thursday. This splendid organization is easily in the first rank of all light opera companies, and for ten years have main tained this pround position. During this time numerous opera companys have risen, had their being and passed into oblivion; and various operas have been exploited with great flourish of trumpets and failed both in artistic and financial returns. It goes without saying then from any point of view the history of the Bostonians is most remarkable, for each year the stan dard of work never deteriorates and the list of artists include tne oest names on the lyric stage. It is this guaranty of su perior rendition and equipment that has made the engagements of the Bostonians such important musical functions in each theatrical season and insured them such a large following. This season this great light opera company is said to be in bet ter form than ever and has added another triumph to its long list of successes. Among the artists who will appear here are Henry Clay Barnabee , William H. MacDonald, Jessie Bartlett Davis. Eugene Cowles. Alice Nielsen. George Frothing ham. Jesephine Bartlett. William E. Philp. Grafton Baker. Harry Brown, Nellie Guisti, Helena Fredericks, Charles Haw and tmartharaihoS syd,L%u: tgbWpfea-udr ley, Jennie Hawley. W. H. Fitzgerald. IS. L. Studley, musical director. A bril i liant chorus and augmented orchestra will be special features of the engagement here and the opera to be rendered will be ap propriately costumed and staged with spe cial scenery. MR.

The Young Ladles’ Auxiliary of the Free Kindergarten Association meets this af ternoon at 3 o clock at the Public Library, and arrangements will be made for a grand ball to be given for the benefit of the Kindergarten. The ball will probably occur on the Ith of February. The January number of Alkahest is of more than usual interest in Macon, as among the list of collaterators are the names of Miss Lutie Cleghorn Westcott and of Mr. Eric Gambrell. Miss Westeott is the daughter of Mr. G. S. Westcott and is a remarkably pretty and attractive young woman, besides possessing unusual artistic talent. The cover of Alkahest is her work. Mr. Eric Gambrell lived in Macon several years and was quite popu lar socially; he is a brother of Mrs. Sidney Wiley, of Macon. Mr. Gambrell contri butes a poem to this number of Alkahest. Alkahest is always well worth reading, and is certainly deserving of patronage all over the South, being published in a Southern city and giving preference to Southern writers and artists.

The services at- Grace church yesterday began with an old fashioned Methodist class meeting where much rich 'experience was given by many who love the Lord. At’ 11 o’clock Rev. J. L Morrell preached from Heb. 12, 1-2, “Seeing that we are compassed about with so great a eloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is see before us, looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him, endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.” The preacher said he liked to have a good text, it did not make any difference what kind of a sermon he p”eached; and after beautifully and pathetically singing, “When I get to the End of the Week,” without any ceremony he went right into the subject matter of this text, and deliv ered the best sermon, perhaps, that it has ever been the good fortume of his large audience to hear. He said" every preacher ought to be equipped as the great apostle to the gentiles was, with the shield of faith and the sword of the spirit. He ought to have the sword to cut and the balm to heal. Raul was a great preacher because he was a preacher like Christ. Paul had two themes, sin and salvation. Seeing that we have so great a; eloud of witnesses. There is nothing that will so encourage a man as to see the success of another man in the same line. So the success of Paul in the Christian warefara ought to encourage our faith. Let us look at some of the witnesses this morning. Abel was an examble of a man who worshipped God. If Abel, thousands of years before the cross, could worship God acceptably, surely we. two thousand years after the crucifixion, and in the light of revelation, should run the race that is set before us. Mr. Morrell stood up other witnesses, as Enoch, who walked ■with God three hun dred years; Noah, who preached one hun dred and twenty years, without having a convert: Abraham, who believed God, and who offered u.p his son as a sacrifice, the grandest sight ever witnessed on theearth, except the crucifixion; and Moses, who by faith, refused to be called the son of Rha roh's daughter, choosing rather do suffer afflictions with the children of lerael: the Wesleys. Charles anxl John, Fletcher, Toplady, Knox. Spurgeon, and many oth ers. God has given us all of these wit nesses -to encourage its in this race to the glory world. The Sunday school exercises were well attended, there being two hundred and thirty-six present. The sermon to mten was delivered to a large audinece that gave the preacher un divided attention ftfr more than an hour. Mr. Morrell has the peculiar faculty of telling men about their worst sins, and at the same time drawing them to him. Last night Mr. Morrell preached to his largest congregation on the “Conversion of the Phillippian Jailer.” The most im- , portant question, .said the preaeher, that man ever asked, or man can ask, was the question propounded by the Phillippian jailer, when he was awakened by the earthquake, of "Paul and 'Silas, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?” and the answer. “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved and thy house,” if promptly obeyed, will bring salvation to any man’s house, or family. The revival influence is spreading out from Grace church, and promises to take in the city. Mr. Morrell will remain in Macon during this week, and conduct services at Grace church at half past nine o’clock in the morning and half past seven o’clock at night. K d > -Telephone.

Reid and Dennington left the witness then and went on up Cotton avenue. Half an hour afterwards the witness heard that a man had been killed. Prior to the killing that night Denning ton had asked him his advice. Denning ton said that Reid’s wife had been insult ed and that Reid had asked Dennington to go with him and help to avenge the insult. Anderson had advised him against going to the circus. Dennington had said: “I do not think that Reid is going to shoot any one or to kill any one. If I thought he would kill any one I would not go with him to the circus.” The witness had seen Dennington after ’the killing and had received a pistol from him. He had seen him at 11 o’clock that night and Dennington was very much drunker than he was earlier in the even ing. Not Quarrelsome. An effort was made by the state to show by the witness that Dennington was a bad and quarrelsome man but this evidence fell through. Coroner Hollis was called. He testified as to the cause of the death of Halstead, whose coat was introduced in evidence with the ghastly hole in it. He simply proved the killing and the person killed. Mrs. L. W. Halstead was the next wit ness. She testified her husband’s coat and acknowledged receiving the body of her husband. She identified all the arti cles taken from her husband’s body. The defense attempted to make the ground for the doubt as to the identifica tion of her husband’s body, but this effort was hardly successful. Arthur L. Wood, Jr., employed in the undertaking establishment of bis father, Mr. A. L. Wood, proved receiving the body. Mrs. Halstead was put upon the stand again to identifiy the letters from her which were found in her husband’s pocket after his death. The state closed its direct testimony at 12:30 o’clock. Counsel for the defense offered Robert Dennington’s statement as their evidence and Mr. Reid, of his counsel, stated that they would no>t offer any other testimony except in rebuttal. DENNINGTON ’ S STATEMENT. Dennington’s statement was given cooly and in a clear, concise manner. He out lined his full connection with the case from the start. He stated how Reid had come to him and had related the insult offered to his Reid's wife, and avowed his determination to avenge it. Dennington said that he had no reason to suppose from his knowledge of Reid’s character that he intended any violence. He had dissuaded him as far as he possibly could from going to the circus tent and had ob jected to his taking his gun with him, but Reid was determined to go to the tent and as his friend he had gone with him. Up to the last moment he had no reason to suppose that Reid really intended to kill Hals toad. Dennington said that he had advised with Mr. Anderson, the foreman of the Macon Telegraph, who had advised him to keep Reid away from the tent and he had done his best to get him to do so. At the close of Dennington’s statement the court adjourned until 3 o’clock this afternoon. The outlook now is that Dennington will be cleared. The state has not made out a strong case against him and his attor neys are very confident that the verdict will be one of acquittal. It is mor« than probable that all the argument will be in and that the charge will have been delivered before time for adjourn'meint tonight in which case a ver dict may be reached tonight.

She wasted away to a shadow, and it was im possible to get any kind of infant food that would be retained by the stomach, and nothing seemed to check the diarrhoea. After the doc tor gave up the case as hopeless we tried Mun yon’s Remedies, and toourdelight found that the first bottle was sufficient to check the diarrhoea and enable the stomach to retain food.A second hottie brought our little one back to perfect health My husband has also taken Munvon’s Dyspepsia Cure with wonder fully curative effects. ’’ © HALF CENT fl WORD.
