Recorder Freeman delivered himself quite freely on the subject of street drum ming this morning when a case was brought up before him, and at last this nuisance will be abolished. For some time past merchants of the city have been In the habit of employing regurar street drummers to stand in front of their stores and invite customers in. A spirit of rivalry has been growing for some time, and if a poor country darky passes one of the stores and shows the least in clination of going inside, he is immediate ly grabbed by a number of these drum mers and dragged into the store, where he Is persuaded to spend all that he has, if possible. A ease came up before the recorder yes terday where one of the merchants ac cused his neighbor of taking customers away from him. The accused merchant then charged his accuser and witnesses with perjury, and this case was heard this morning. The merchant who brought the charge of perjury was fined, as were those * ••*»'* V, r, zl c< wed 11 v> <y fnv* hlna Tii.rlcyn Freeman said that there was a license of SSOO for tins kind of business, and unless it was stopped immediately he would re quire those who violated it to pay the full SSOO to the city treasurer. IN DUE TIME The Nobles Case Will be Presented to the Governor. The attorneys for Mrs. Elizabeth Nobles say that the case will be presented to th* governor and pardoning board in due time, and that the anxiety displayed by some that the ease will not be carried before these tribunals Is entirely out of place. There ere many new phases of the case which will be presented to the governor and the board which have not yet been noted in the courts. Among the strongest of these is the decision of the United States supreme court which‘dearly sets out that 'hero is need of a change of the laws of Georgia on the insanity question before Mrs. Nobles' case can be considered in a light that is calculated to give her all the latitude the general insanity laws of the union allow.

Splendid Entertainment in Store for the Peo ple of Savannah. The next! attraction of the Lyceum course of the library will probably prove •the most popular of its entertainments. It is the Boston Ideal Banjo, Mandolin and Guitar Club, which will appear at the Guards hall Thursday, March 3. This or ganization has played in the largest and most exclusive star courses, with the greatest possible success, and has been re engaged three and four- times. It is hard to convince some people that an organiza tion of this kind can give a first-class con cert, but such people draw their conclu sions from having heard some very infe rior clubs, or they have never had an op portunity of hearing this club. Every member of this club has had a concert experience of not less than twelve years, and the same members have played together several years. The ensemble playing has been pronounced by competent critics, time and time again, to be almost marvelous, while the special acts by dif ferent members are features which never fail to captivate the most exacting au diences, One of the most important fea tures is the quartet singing, with accom paniment by banjos and guitars. The Ideals will be here on Saturday, March 5. The Ideals are an appropriate Lenten attraction. Advertise in The News and reach the people. AGENCIES ARE ABOLISHED. The Post Office Department Has Done Away With the Stamp Offices. SUB STATIONS TO COME. Several of Them to be Put Up in the Suburban Districts and Will be a Convenience. The three stamp agencies in Macon hav« been abolished by the postoflice depart ment. Postmaster Hertz is in receipt of notice from the department instructing him to abolish these agencies, and he has obeyed the instructions. The agencies have been held by W. T. Morgan’s South Macon Drug Store, J. A. Polhill’s Drug Store, and the College Hill I Pharmacy. They were established at a cost of $24 a year each, and consequently the saving is only $72 for the department. Postmaster Hertz says, however, that after July 1 a number of sub-stations will be established in Macon. These sub-sta tions will be for the sale of stamps and money orders, and will also be stations for the delivery of letters. The postmaster here has for a long time been anxious for these sub-stations, and the department has notified him that they will be established. The reason for the cutting off of the agencies is that economy must be practiced in every department. The stamp agents were greatly surprised to have the agencies taken from them. The agencies have been at the various news stands and drug stores, where tb« public could conveniently purchase stamps and save the trouble of going or sending to the postoillee. agencies have proved a great convenience, and. they will be greatly missed. The agents received no tice of the abolition yesterday morning. Each of the three agents were-sent let ters telling them that after the first of next month the agencies would be abol ished. The letters explained that the measure was taken to economize as much as possible, and to meet the deficiency in the appropriation. The present trouble is due to the short appropriation made by the last congress. That appropriation was on an average nearly $400,000 less than for the four pre ceding years. On the beginning of the present fiscal year, last July Ist, only $200,000 was available for increases in sal aries and for additional clerks, which amount is but 36 per cent., or a little more than a third of what has heretofore been allowed for that purpose. For the fiscal year of 1893-94 the available appropriation for this purpose was $436,468. For the next following year it was $804,284.59. The next year it was $.573,293.59, and last year $406,- 077.8. The average sum available each of the four years was $556,031.01, as compared to the small sum of $200,000 for the pres ent fiscal year, when there is a greater need of the appropriation than ever before. WAR WITH SPAIN. Has nothing to do with our $3.00 special made American hats. CLEM PHILLIPS. THE WAR SPIRIT Is Moving Along and Macon’s iSoidiers are Watching Turn of Events. The war spirit, has moved out into the open, and the military, even, are snuffing the battle from afar. It is noticeable, however, and speaks well for the Macon military, that very lit tle loud talking is done. The Volunteers are watching the situa tion eagerly, and among themselves dis cuss the probabilities of war and the pos sible movement of the state troops. Col. Wiley, in command of the regiment, says that he has not received any inti mation that anything will be demanded from the state troops, but does not deny that at any time some orders may be re ceived. It may be safely said that in the event of a demand for the services of the Geor gia militia, Macon would muster in as many men as any other city of its size. The war department has on file at Wash ington reports from all the railroads in ■the southeast, giving estimates of the number of men and amount of munitions of war they could move in a given number of hours, and upon what notice such move ments could be made. This information, covering movements from Atlanta to ports on the Atlantic and Gulf coasts appears to have been collected with the idea that in case of war with Spain, or a movement of troops tc Cuba. The railroad men are reticent about the information given the government, but ad mit that blanks for this purpose were sent out from Washington some months ago. The information was gotten up very care fully by the transportation men, and their estimates are held by the war department. It appears that in case of an emergency requiring a temporary interruption of or dinary business the various lines could move 100,000 men from Atlanta to Bruns wick. Savannah, Port Royal or Charleston within twenty-four hours. They could de liver the same number of men at Tampa, Punta Gorda and Miami in thirty-six hours. These estimates allow twelve hours to get the trains ready after notice. The Southern railway has over 60 per cent, of its box ears equipped with air brakes, and other roads are to some extent equipped in the same way. There are three lines to New Orleans that could deliver about 75,- 000 troops in twenty-four hours. There are three routes to Brunswick and as many to Savannah, Charleston and Port Royal. It is thought that trains could be run to any one of these places in eight to ten hours, with twenty, cars each, and fifty soldiers in each ear. The trains could be run twenty minutes apart, and in that way c-ould move 3.000 men an hour. The Central of Georgia has 1,100 cars equipped with air brakes, and other roads have smaller proportions. With these equipments the movement of troops would be far more easily and safely made than it was during the civil war, when there was no such equipment. Something to Know. It may be worth something to know that the very best medicine for restoring the tired-out nervous system to a healthy vigor is Electric Bitters. The medicine is purely vegetable, acts by giving tone to the nerve centers in the stonaach, gently stimulates the Liver and Kidneys, and aids these organs in throwing off the impurities in the blood. Electric Bitters improves the appetite, aids digestion, and is pro nounced by those who have tried it as the very best blood purifier and nerve tonic. Try it. Sold for 50c. or SI.OO per bottle at H.

NO NEW CASES. The County Commissioners Enjoined —Mr. Tins ley’s Card. No new cases of smallpox were reported to the Board of Health this morning, though there are some suspicious cases on Green street, where it is thought there is a nest of the disease. All of the cases in the city with the ex ception of those at the Knox residence on Magnolia street have been removed to the pest house at the park and With this ex ception there is not now a known case in the city. All of the premises from which the pa tients have been removed have been thor oughly fumigated and cleaned out and a guard has been placed thereto to sec that the instructions of the board are carried out and that no one goes near the prem ises until it is safe for people to go there. At the pest house at the park everything has been arranged so as to contribute as much as possible to the comfort of the patients. So far everything there is well and none' of the patients seem to be in any grave danger. * The county commissioners were enjoined last night. The order was presented to Judge Felton on his arrival in the city and he signed a temporary injunction re straining the county commissioners from building at the place where they last se lected until ahearing of the case can be had tomorrow morning at 10 o’clock in the superior court. The petition for the restraining order is signed by Messrs. George Dillon, W. S. Bhooks, T. D. Tinsley, The Log Cabin Club, W. C. Booth, George Beggs. J. W. Johnson, O. A. Toole, W. L. Griffin and Mrs. E. H. Stewart. The petition alleges that the petitioners are the owners o fproperty near the site selected and that their property will be se riously injured by the placing of, a pest house at the site selected. The papers were served on the chairman of the board of county commissioners this morning. Work on the county pest hduse had not been commenced When the papers were served. The commissioners will probably wait until the outcome of the case before they decide what steps to 'take. Commissioner Davis says, however, that he has no idea what they will do. He says that the site that has been selected is as far removed from the buildings and from houses as any they can find in Bibb county and that any place they might think suit able would-be open to the same objection on the part of the property owners. The following card from Mr. T. D. Tins ley states ibis position as one of the peti tioners for injunction. Mr. Editor: In your interview with Mr. Davis, county commissioner, published in yesterday -afternoon’s News, he states in referring to the injunction against the lo cation of the proposed pest house near the 'Log Cabin, that while the building would be in -close proximity to my property that •the land was wild or uncultivated, and that there were no building on it. He goes on further to state that the county eom ■missloners must not be blamed for the fail ure to erect a pest house if they were con fronted with an injunction at every turn they made. This leaves the inference that the blame should be laid on my shoulders and those of my associates -who have joined in the Injunction. Now, Mr. Editor, I recognize the fact ■that it is important for the good of this community that ia pest house be built. I recognize in addition that if one is built it must of necessity be located near the land or lands of one or more people, a-iid while I would much prefer that it be apt built at the proposed site, because it is not a pleasant thiiig to contemplate, either for myself or for my good neighbors, who are about me, I am not willing to be ia.n obstructionist in what is being done for the good of the many, and as soon as I learn ed of the fact, I went to Mr. Davis, Oom, missioner, and told him that I would offer no objection provided a stockade fence was placed around the building, and that an agreement was had that if the pestiferous thing be burned as soon as the need for it was over. This seemed to me reasonable and fair, and my neighbors, whose fami lies reside in that section, agreed to this view of the case, and no injunction would have been asked had the county commis sioners seen fit to agree to this most rea sonable proposition. Mr. 'Davis was mistaken in saying that my land was not under cultivation. It has been farmed for two (2) years, and my son is making preparations to take charge of it again the present year. More than this, I think that Mr. Davis, commissioner, must have known that while there is no building on the place at present, I have the lumber and material already hauled out for the building of a four room cot tage on the land. While I want to be reasonable in the water, I certainly do not propose to sit tamely down and permit, without protest, the erection of a permanent pest house in the neighborhood of my property, which would be a constant menace of -its value. The temporary injunction was granted last evening. 'I am yet ready to dismiss it be fore a hearing, provided the commission ers will grant my request, but I would be untrue to my own interests, and to those of the good -people who live about me if I do not do alf I can to prevent this per manent injury to our property. Speaking for myself, I cannot under stand .why it is necessary to iblot the ■county with pest houses. It would seem the more suitable thing as the city already has a pest house, to send the few county patients there and pay the city for the care of them. Very respectfully, ‘ T. ,D. Tinsley. SUPERIOR COURT Lamar Case Goes Over —Trial Decree in Wolff and Happ Case.
