The readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease that science lias been able to cure in all its stages, and that is catarrh. Hall’s Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure known to tin' medical fraternity. Catarrh being a constitutional disease requires a constitutional treatment. Hall’s Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby destroying the foun dation of the disease and giving the pa tient strength by building up the consti tution and assisting nature in doing its work. The proprietors have so much faith in its curative powers that they offer SIOO for any case that it fails to cure. Send for list of testimonials. Address, F. J. CHE NEY <£• CO.. Toledo. O.

Washington, Feb. 12.--The December imixyrtations of wool through the three principal ports of New York Boston and Philadelphia were much larger than was expected. The bureau of statistics of the treasury department gives the amount as 17.265.627 pounds, as compared with only 25.399,525 pounds in December. 1896. when wool was free of duty and when the stock on hand in this country was not abnor mally large. The wool Importation in creased greatly in December last over those of the month proceeding, when they amounted to 10.161.313 pounds. The treas ury officials say that the importations in January were much larger than in any month since the present tariff law went into effect, but the exact figures have not been obtained. The December importa tions consisted chiefly of first-class and third-class wools. Less than 10.0 W pounds Os second-class wools were brought in. i »• CASTORIA For Infants and Children JASPER COUNTY' TO THE FRONT. I wish to say to you and to the public that I have been using Cheney’s Expector ant for years and can truly say it is the best preparation for coughs and croups In existence. BOYKIN R. SMITH __ Jasper County, Ga. SOUTH MACON DOTS. Your correspondent spent quite a pleas ant hour yesterday visiting the South Ma con school. Mrs. c. H. Weir, the ever courteous, faithful and efficient principal of the ■ South .Macon school, who is in charge of the Seventh class, gave tne a hearty wel come to her class room, and then proceed- i ed with the recitations. Tae class was reciting a language les- i son which was replete with intricate ques- j dons or problems, all of which were solved ■ mentally, intelligently and conspicuously in every particular. The class was next required to recite a lesson in the arithmetic, from which the teacher selected quite a number of the most difficult problems, giving them to the students severally, each and every prob lem was solved readily, accurately and in telligently. -Mrs. Weir then turned her class over to Miss Thorner, the brilliant young super numerary, and conducted us to the other class rooms, commencing with the sixth class, which is guided and directed by rhe skillful hands and graceful mein of Miss Sullivan. Miss Pound is the able, affable and painstaking teacher of the fourth class. Recitations were given in Geography and also in arithmetic. The intricate ques tions propounded and ready, rapid and ac curate answers were sufficient evidence of hliligence in the students and careful training of the teacher. Miss Freeman, teacher of the third class is a perfect adept in the art of successful teaching, as is ever made nianm st by Un systematic maimer in which she handles her pupils. Her class gave an exhibition of concert spelling and reading. To say tha? each recitation was remarkable fine ■falls far short of expressing it properly. '1 he second class, which numbers over 100. has been divided into two classes. A No. 2in in charge of Miss Shinholser. B No. 2. class is in charge of Miss Culver, both oi whom are faithful and competent -teachera, whose effectual work is clearly shown in the rapid progress of their re spective classes. Miss Levy is in charge of A No. 1 class and Miss Dickson presides over B No. 1 Class. The people of South Macon owe to Pro fessor Abbott and the Board of Education a debt of gratitude they can never pay in any way. unless it be by a heartfelt and unalloyed appreciation of the faithful per formance of the honorous duties perform ed by Mrs. Weir and her efficient corps of teachers, selected and f.ppointed by said professor and board. Quite a number of the students have been vaccinated in accordance with the order of the Board of Education, and it is presumed that all the others will be soon as we have heard of very little opposition to the vaccination order among the pa trons of the school. Parents are especially urged to attend t.o this very important matter before the first of March in order that their children may continue to attend the school and proceed with their studies, in which they are now making such rapid progress. In the school there are nine well filled classes, each provided with a separate room, all of said rooms having been ele gantlygantly finished and superbly fur nished with modern and improved furni ture and other facilities. South Macon can boast of one of the best schools in the state, and point with pride to this spacious edifice of learning, ex claiming with reptures, there stands the finest country school house in Georgia, in which arc gathered nearly four hundred of our children, who are under the super vision of a principal and corps of teach ers second to none in America. , “Smith.” SURGICAL OPERATIONS For the Cure of Piles and Rectal Diseases No Longer Necessary—A Medical Dis covery Which Will Change the Treatment of All Such Diseases. It has long been thought, not only by some physicians, but by people in general, that the common, painful and excedingly annoying trouble, piles, was practically in curable by any other means than a sur gical operation and this belief has been the cause of years of needless offering, because of the natural dread of surgical operations. There are many salves, oinements and afford some relief in the ease of piles, but the Pyramid Pile Cure is the cnly prepar ation so far introduced that can be reli ably depended upon to cure to stay cured, every form of itching, bleeding or pro truding piles. Mrs. M. C. Hinkley, of 601 Mississippi street, Indianapolis, was told by her phy sician that nothing but a surgical opera tion. costing between seven and eight hundred dollars, could cure her, as she had suffered for 15 years; yet even in such a case as hers the Pyramid Pile Cure ac complished a complete cure. She says; “I knew that an operation would be death to me and tried the Pyramid with very lit itle hope and it is not to be wondered at that I am so enthusiastic in its praise.” Mr. D. E. Reed, of South Lyons, Mich., says: “I would not take SSOO and be placed ’ back where I was before I used the Pyra mid Pile Cure. I suffered for years and it is now eighteen months since I used it and not the slightest trace of the trouble has returned.” The Pyramid Pile Cure is sold by nearly all druggists at 50c and $1 a package and as it contains no opium, cocaine or other poisonous drugs can fee used with perfect safety. No one need suffer with plies of any form who will give his excellent remedy a trial. Send for book on cause and cure of piles, sent free by adresslng Pyramid Drug Co., Marshall, Mieh.

De Lome Has Ever Been a Hater of Amer ica and Her People. Washington, Feb. 13.—The purported letter of Senor De Lome insulting the prey dent of the United States is not his first offense against the American people. It is nearly twenty years ago that he wrote “Madrid to Madrid Around the World,” and in this be said such things as thia, speaking of America: “To strictly comply with the custom house regulations will be of no avail. If you carry anything for which duty must be paid, offer $5 to the officer in attend ance. Do the same tamg in oase you have to pay nothing, so that they may not bother you. These officials are meanest and most miserable fellows to be found among politicians.” Os the women of America, this Spanish diplomat wrote: “We ail know what woman in the United States is. She is adventurous and bold. She travels alone, with full liberty, protected more by the fear of the law than by the respect which she inspires. She is a spendthrift, elegant and wears the most rrsky fashions, knowing well that every thing becomes her.” “Is she a woman who loves home? I do not know. I have seen American wo men living at the hotels in California, in Parts, all over Europe, always extrava gant, spending more money than their husbands, of whom they do not know very much—money earned God knows how or where. “People have been inclined to believe that they make model wives. There are in dications which do not commend them very much; for instance the mysterious his tory of a. certain witch who now owns a palace on Fifth avenue, and whose fortune of which she now makes an insolent show, was emassed by preventing the increase of population in the great republic.” De Lome apologized for his book by stating that he was a mere boy when it was written. The explanation had to go. there being no other. Less than a year ago, however, at his own residence in Washing ton, in the presence of a large gathering, Senor 'De Lome said: “It is not surpris ing that American laws are so pediculous. They are made by incompetent tricksters and politicians and executed by their syco phants. It is not only in a country like this that such slight men would be con sidered or gain attention. It is useless for Europeans to try to understand them.” Os Senator Mills he said: “In Europe such a man would never again have standing except as food for laughter in the comic papers.” “I have a. eon of 10. If he displays as little knowledge of international law as marks the average president of American colleges I should esteem myself severely stricken by Divine Providence.” When the women of America were agi tating to get Evangelina Cisneros released from the prison, De 'Lome wrote letters to Mrs. John Sherman and to Mrs. Jeffer son Davis, in which he aspersed the un fortunate girl’s character, though he could have no personal knowledge of the young woman or her case.

MACON NEWS SATURDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY xa 1898 RACE TRACK. Major Winters Does Not YVant to Spend ‘ Much Money. The chances for a new six lap race track for the wheelmen of Maeon are not so good as they were at first, as it has been found that the kind of track that they want will be too expensive. Major Winters says he feels sure tiHvt the management of the road at Boston will permission to have the track built, but to build the kind that would be need ed to iaduce the Northern riders to come here It would ne very expensive, and he does not feel like spending too much on it as an experiment. It would be almost impossible to build a six lap dirt track which would not wash. The turns would be at such angles that it would be almost impossible to keep it from washing. To cement the turns would entail considerable expense. Something definite will be decided at the meeting Tuesday night, and possibly the Macon Bicycle Club will agree to assist in building the track.

I recommend his paint to any one who is troubled with leaky roofs. F. Whire, Supt. Georgia Cotton Oil Co., Albany Mill. Mr. English has done some work for us that required the best of paints and skill as a workman. Without soldering he has made a very leaky roof dry and tight. It gives us pleasure to recommend him. T. J. Ball & Bro., Wholesale dealers in choice groceries and delicacies. Thomasville, Ga., Ag. 18, 1894. The corrugated iron roof of our shop leaked so badly that in times of a heavy rain, we have been compelled to shut down all work and wait until the rain was over. Mr. English painted the roof with his English Roof Paint, stopped the leaks, and now the work goes on, rain or no rain. His paint is a first-class article. We take pleasure in recommending English and his paint. Beverly Bros. & Hargrave, “Big Jim” Variety Works. Thomasville, Ga., Aug, 1894. I hav had Mr. Harvey English to do some painting for me on iron and tin roofs. I am satisfied he has a superior roof paint. Wiley C. Pittman. Thomasville, Ga., July 21, 1894 3
