4 HE IS HERE TO MEETJE BOYS Spencer Atkinson, Guberna tional Candidate, is Shak ing Macon Hands. ' GLAD TO BE 111 MACON. He Likes the Place and Its People- Will be Here Today and Per haps Until Tomorrow. Judge Spencer Atkinson is m the chy. He came in this ifiorning and registered, at the Hotel Lanier. He will be here for the rem of the day and wHI perhaps stay over till tomorrow. The gubernatorial candidate dij not corn. in within any flourish of trumpets or beating nf drums. He just came .n ke any o her mortal, and being a campai-u.k stranger in Macon, very few people knew him. , ... . Mr. Atkinson was seen in the lobby ol ■the Hotel Lanier, where he was in conver sation with Mr. C, W. laming, of Bruns wick, and Editor Matthews, of the T le gra-ph. None of the other Blub county friends of the aspirant’for gubernatorial t.onur.. were present. It is to j>e preeunied that later in the day when they discover his presence in the city they will give him a somewhat warmer welcome. For some time it looked a little chilly around the lobby, and the porter gave the fire some extra digs, wondering what might be the mater and fearing that win ter had come again. The judge was in a splendid humor, however, notwithstanding the chilliness of ithe atmosphere. He has probably suffi cient confidence in himrelf to believe that things will warm up again soon. Mr. Atkinson said that he had just come down to meet “the boys’’ and talk over the situation. “I have not been able to get to Macon .for ■ e>mc years,*’ he said. “I have been a busy man, but J like Macon and her people and j have a number of good personal friends here." Mr. Atkinson inquired about the status of polities on other lines rather than his own oandidaey, on which he did not touch except to significantly say that ne hoped to make more friends, both personal and political in Biibb county than he bad. During the afternoon a number of Judge Atkinson’s friends called upon him, in cluding Solicitor General Hodges. It is probable that an Atkinson Club will be formed within the next two vreeks and that Mr. Atkinson will be as’iel to address the club at an early date. Notes Taken On the Run.

A little corn on a maiden grew— Listen to my wail of toe — Caused by the pinch of a too-tight shoe, (Instead of a three a number two); It grew, it grew, Listen to my wail of toe. As tinre went on, (as time will do) — Listen to my wail of toe — 1 he corn waxed red, the maiden blue; 1 was ten times worse than the grij.—kerchew! Too true, too true! Listen to my wail of toe. She had a seat in the end of the pew — Listen to my wail of toe — And a man with another seat in view Put his cowhide boot on her kangaroo, Oh whew! Oh whew! Listen to my wail of toe. Had she come to us to buy that shoe. We’d have listened to her wail of toe — And on the foot where that corn grew. We’d have put a shoe that lit so true, Though new, and a two, would do And never would hurt her a bit. Yours Truly, CLISBY McKAY, What is Going On in Society.

T«GE FOR STATE MEETING Os the Epworth Leagues Which Will Convene Here in April, EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE Meets I his Afternoon !to Arrange General Details Preparing . for Delegates. A meeting of the executive committee of the Epworth League will be held at the office of Dasher, Park & Gerlme this afternoon at 3 o’clock. This will be a meeting of vital impor tance to the conference which, will be held here in April, and the time is now ap proaching when the details of this confer ence will have to be arrange.!. All of the committee have been industriously at work for the past few weeks getting the matters assigned to them in fehape, and re torts of what they have done will be made at the meeting this afternoon. The committee appointed to arrange for a suitable place in which to bold the meet ings of the conference will report that they have already made arrangements for a tent. The order has been given for its purchase, and it will reach Macon in due rime to be placed in position, as soon as the site has been agreed upon. This tent will have a seating capacity of over four thousand, which is double the size and capacity of the tent which Dr. Wharton used here during his revival. The tent is bought outright and will be kept in Ma con for future use. The committee on entertainment will re port that they have done everything pos sible to provide homes for the visitors. 'Homes for about 800 have already been secured, and they feel that it will not be a. hard matter to get homes for the rest of them. The committee will recommend that something be done for the entertain ment of the visitors who will come to the conference, as there will hardly be enough rooms at the hotels. This matter will be taken up. The various other committees will re port what they have done, and all of the details of the great gathering will be ar ranged. ‘ . The meeting of the state conference of the Epworth leagues is a much larger af fair than many would suppose, and it will ■be a great thing for Macon. The reduced railroad rates will attract thousands, seme of whom are not even members of ..tie league. They will all have to be provided with hemes, and it is the intention of the leagues that not only the delegates, but also 'the visitors shajl be showrt every care possible. The tent for holding the meetings will reach the city about the first of April. As yet no place has been decided upon for placing the tent. INJUNCTION DENIED. Chicago March 2. —The application of the Inter-Ocean for an injunction to restrain the Associated Press from cutting out its news service from .that paper was denied by Judge Waterman. Trapped by a Lunatic. Only lunatics are so unreasonable at to get furious when some one with them,and so the manufacturer and jobber can have their little differences and still be on the most friendly term: and respect one another’s opinions. Thi. puts me in mind of a story of a clergy man told me recently. He was visiting an insane asylum and was told by tbc man who was showing him around the institution that he we.; going to intro duce him to a patient with whom he must agree, no matter what absurd state meats the man might make; otherwise he would be furious. The first thing the insane man said to the clergyman was, “I suppose you know that the Washing ton monument was totally demolished by a thunderbolt last night?” ‘‘Yes,’ said the clergyman, “and I felt very sorry to think that a work that had taken so long to complete should be de stroyed in an instant.” The insane man next said, **Of course you read in the evening papers that Queeh \ ietcria had decided to abdicate in favor of her son, the Prince of Wales?” “Yes,” said the clergyman, “and I am not at all surprised. ” . “Did you read that the president had been impeached?” ‘‘Yes, and 1 think it would have been only feii- to have given him a little lon ger trial. ” sai>! the clergyman. Then the" imam? man looked intently upon that cleigyma'i and said, “You have die air ami the garb : f a clergyman, but you can Ho like lite devil. ” —lror Age. riarkef Report. By Talbott & Palmer.

CURIOUS TEMPERANCE LAW. The One Enforced la i’o:noc?_, <a'.. Said to Be I'aique. The growth of tern;:. 1 ” ; e ■■ r.tin -r.t in southern California ia the j? t -v. ,>rs is marvelous, ami today, outsit;? of Angeles, all local ejections li;rv<? prohibi tion and high license as their s-J i-'.sue- There are no party lines .between Repub licans, Democrats and Populists, and voters who have been a'rrsyed against one anoth er in t-be fall or general elections join handsaud array tbeinsc!ves against form- r allies on the qtic-sricn of issuing saloon li censes for a large sum or of having total prohibition of the local liquor business. Some of the local campaigns are very heat ed and warm the communities much more than general political-ones. At the last local election in Pomona the high lieerw-e party won after a lively campaign of four weeks. The city had been a strict prohibi tion town for two years. The law now in force is probably the most curious in the world. Matthew Dunk ley, president of the great temperance league of Great Britain, says it is a re markable law anti worthy t f study, it j s known on the Pacific coast as the Pomona saloon law. In its preparation the ideas of dozens of eminent leaders in temperance work were considered. The purpose was to provide a drinking place, pure and sim ple, for men who must drink, to put thoso places tinder the most strict rurveillauce and at the same time to keep women's and children’s livelihoods from going over a bar. The Pomona saloon law provides that there may be but two drinking places there—a community of over t>,ooo > emula tion. The saloon or barroom must be m a principal thoroughfare of the ci’.y. It must be on the first or ground floor, and its front must be one-half of ulain p.lass and flush with the sidewalk. No fi-cMed, painted or stained glass may be used in tho windows or doors, and there must bo no screens whatever. The view from the street to the bar must always bo free and unobstructed, so that a person on the street may at any time see who are within the saloon. Then, also, Ibero can be no rear or side doors to the saloon, nocellar or basement, no adjunct, wing, side room or alcove. The saloon or barroom must be a single rectangular or square apartment. There must bo no allurements there other iban drink itself. To that end there may be but one seat, bench or chair in the saloon. That must tie. behind the bar and for the sole use of the saloon keeper or bartend-’?. Barrels or casks must bfi separated from rhe room by a railing so that they may not "furnish scats or leaning conveniences for patrons of the saloon. No pieturc.-, ad vertisements or show cards may be on tins walls, and nothing to eat may be served, given away or sold there, not, even crack ers or pretzels. AU games are strictly pro hibited in the saloons, and newspapers, periodicals or books are tabooed along with any table or shelf upon which they might be placed. In a word, the Pcmmm barroom or saloon is simply a drinking place, surrounded by all the publicity pos sible.—Boston Transcript. Mr. Stoggleby’s Alarm Clocks. “I never set my alarm clock nowadays,” said Mr.’Stoggleby, “without thinking cf one I used to get up by once and never had to set aj all. I was working in a river town, where I had to get up at 4 o’clock in the morning. There was a steamboat running on the river that used to pass our place every morning at 4 o'clock. This steamboat had lost a bucket from one of her wheels, and when this wheel was turning the next bucket after the one that was missing used to come down on the water with a slap. It woke mo up the first morning I was there. You could hear it a long distance off, the steady churn of the wheels broken at regular intervals by the chug of this bucket. After that first morn ing I never set my alarm clock. The steamboat was running, on a schedule, she was always on time, and every morning she’d wake me up as showent past pound ing down Che river. “But one morning a man came up from the mill pounding on my doer. ‘*Sto:-gy, me boy,’ he says, ‘wake up! It's 5 o'clock.’ And so it was, and I wondered why they had taken off the steamboat. That I not my alarm clock, and at 4 o’clock next morning I was up. Ami at that hour I heard the steamboat-go by just tho only new she churned past as slick and smooth and soothing as you please. They hadn’t taken her off, but they'd put a new bucket®n her wheel.”—New York Sun. Romantic Tale of a Georgia Girl. In the Big Hurricane railroad wreck of March 17, 1888, near Blackshear, Ga., Mr. and Mrs. George Gould were both slightly injured. They were cared for nt the Brown House, a hostelry kept by Dr. and Mrs. Allen Brown. During the stay of the Goulds a little child, Lilly Converse, 5 years of age, accompanied Mrs. Brown on her visits to Mrs. Gould’s room. Thewsrv ing, flaxen hair and fair complexion of the child and her pretty manners and level} disposition were noticed by Mrs. Gould, who professed to have fallen in love with her. The child’s mother bad been deserted bj her husband and was penniless and 1:< ip less, and the Goulds made her all sorts of offers for Lilly, but the mother refused to part with her. After Mrs. Gould left Blackshear she torresponded wilh Mrs. Converse and made repeated efforts to have Lilly came to her. Finally Mrs. Con verse died in Savannah, and for awhile the child was lost sight of, but it now apyca.-s that she is attending a boarding school in New York, and it is surmis-J that Mr. and Mrs. Gould are educating her. She is about 15 years of age and is said to be a very beautiful girl.—Philadelphia Press. Tlso Dug Voted. The Rev. Dr. J. C. Wingo was recently rc-elccted pastor of the Baptist, church at. Carrollton by the most unanimous vote ever cast by its members. It was at the annual church meeting, over which Dr. Fitts was presiding. One of the members has a pet pug dog that has been taught a number of tricks, one being to rise to his hind leg.s and walk at the command “stand.” Dr. Wingo had retired in order that, the church might vote on the question of his re-election. One brother had moved the re-election of Dr. Wingo. Another had seconded the motion, and several speeches had been made, ’fhile the pug dog, blink ing solemnly, sat in the front part of the church. The question was called for, and Dr. Fitts put it. “All who are in favor of the re-election of Brother Wingo will please rise and stand.” Everybody rose, and then the pug dog got up very solemnly on his hind legs and walked around in front of the.pulpit. Everybodylaughed, and then Dr. Wingo was informed that he had been re elected by the unanimous of the members and ♦he dog.—Atlanta Journal. What It Means.
