Danger in Delay It is one of the absolute imptywrt bilities of the world to cure the roots by lopping off the leaves. Those who treat Catarrh with sprays, washes and inhaling mixtures should know that these remedies reach only the surface, and can never cure them. Catarrh invariAbly leads to Consumption, and to delav the proper tr eatment is to invite this dreaded disease. Catarrh comes from diser-sed blood. Spray* and washer won t cure it, because they do not reach the roots of th< trouble. There is no use expert menting with the abominable dis ease called Catarrh. There is n< use losing time. If you want to get well again take Swift’ h Specific (S.S.S.) right away. It goes down to the bottom down to the roots -flown to the foun dation of all blood disorders, com plctoly curing Catarrh, Cancer Scrofula, Contagious Blood Poison Rheumatism and Eczema.

MACON STANDS IN THIRD PLACE Post D of the Traveller’s Pro tective Association Has a Large Membership. CONVENTION PREPARATIONS Which Will Be the Biggest Ever Held Under Auspices of This Association. The Georgia division of the Travelers’ Protective Asoeiation, which holds its next annual convention at Savannah on the 20th »f next month, is composed of the follow ing posts: Psst A, Savannah, 140 members, Joseph uovetußtein, president. . Post B, Atlanta, 142 members, J. E. Maddox, presiden>t. I’ost C, Columbus, 55 members, T. J. Hunt, president. Post D, Maeon, 115 memburs, L. A. Wood, president. Post E. Augusta, 70 members, R. L. Lamkin, president. Post F, Atlanta, GO members, George E. lohnson, president. The total number of members in the division is 682. The state president is E. :J. Smith, of Atlanta, ami the state seere ar y,and treasurer is Dan P. O’Connor, of Ingusia. *■ The state division is said to show an increase of about 250 members since tire last state > onvention, making this division iow sixth or seventh in rank out of thir y-two state divisions. Four years ago it toed about tw< nty-fifth in rank. The Georgia division is in better con •jftkrti tn every way than it has ever been before, having a steadily growing mem bership, being out of debt and with a handsome surplus in its treasury. This is ■ o dearly due to the executive ability and irganlzing power of State President dinlth, in which he has been’so ably as dsted by the efficient work- of State Sec •efary O’Connor, that It is said that there s no opposition to their re-election. President Smith is a Kentuckian by birth. For many years he was a teacher, laving filled the chair of English in the (diversity of his native state and also in he state university of Indiana. Four /ears ago he came to Atlanta to establish i Southern branch of the .publishing house of D. C. Heath & Co. He is credited with ouildlng up a very handsome business for hat fir tn and stands very high among his icqiialn lances. The Savannah post, which is to enter aln the state convention this year, pro poses to do so with the characteristic hos dtality of the city. Welcoming addresses vill be delivered by Mayor Meldrim and >y Hon. Fleming dußignon. These will oe responded to by State President Smith tnd National President Wallenstein. These will be followed by the regular business session on Wednesday, April 20. The convention will last over Thursday >nd Friday. It is understood that the Savannah post will send out special invitations to dele gates requesting them to bring their wives, who will be entertained while the gentlemen are engaged in business ses don. This is a new feature and a popular ■>ne. Mr. A. P. Solomon, of Savannah, is •h.iirnwin of the press committee, which oosltton he has filled very satisfactorily or several years. He is a fluent and ready vriter. Mr. J. r. May, of Augusta, is chairman >f the state board of directors. which posi :on he has filled admirably, being a con ’ervative cartful •business man of wide ■xperlcnce. The post president who. next to the genial J. Jones Gardner, of Augusta, is •redited with being the greatest “hustler” in the Georgia division, is President L. \. Wood, of the Macon post. No post in be state is thought to he in better shape. Many members have recently joined the board of trade of Macon. Among outside posts, one of the best managed and most enthusiastic in the United States is the Montgomery, Ala., lost. Its president is Mr. L. V. LaTaste. It takes part In all the business enter prises of the city and is shortly to dedi 'ate the new union depot of that city.

Washington, March 16 —The discussion of telephone rates in the District of Co lumbia by the Senate has put the telephone (justness in the glare of a strong light, by which many interesting things are reveal ed. An amendment to the telephone bill made it unlawful for any person or com pany in the district to charge for the use of any telephone more than SSO per annum for business houses or hotels, and $36 for residences, within a radius of one mile of the exchange. Senator Perkins said he was satisfied the corporation was making enormous in terest on its investments, and that it was paying too much money for the royalty which the parent company charges to the subordinate companies. He said further; "When I visited the Hawaiian Islands a few years since I found that in almost every house, in every store, in every place of business in Honolulu, there was a telephone, and telephones were also in use upon the plantations— everybody had a telephone. 1 asked them how much they paid. They said for an ordinary resident it was from $1 to $2 per month, or from sl2 to s2l per annum, and in business houses double that rate, the entire charge for the telephone.’ He learned that the stockholders of the •telephone company in Hawaii were get ting from 30 to 40 per cent dividends, Per kins felt sure there would be big dividends even on a S3O rental. "In San Francisco, in Los Angeles and other cities.” said Senator Perkins, “the rates are about the same as those fixed by the House (for the Washington Company). If 3,000 miles away from here, where the cost of transportation is from S2O te S4O a ton for the material, where labor is higher, where .the population is more sparse, they can afford to transport cop per wires made here, transport their in sulators, telephone machines, pay freight ujjon them, hire labor at higher rates then furnish the service to a mere sparse ly settled population than we have here on the Atlantic coast, it seems to me that is prima facie evidence from the stand point of a lawyer, that they are doing themselves- no injustice." CASTOR SA For Infants and Children Tie fio- 3, ONE OF THE STARS. Miss Margaret Mather in Cymbeline Tomor row. The coming of Miss Margaret Mather to the Academy of Music tomorrow night is an important event in the theatrical sea son. The Lenten .season of necessity in a town the size of Macon reduces the box office receipts very perceptibly, but with such a play as. “Cymbeline” and such an actress as Miss Mather, the rules of the churches might be relaxed without any very serious injury to anyone. For the credit of Macon Miss Mather should play to a large audience tomorrow night. She is one of the most charming actresses on the stage today and in “Cym b- line” has selected a play which affords her wonderful talents every opportunity. Arfa‘S ; is iwwf o Bl MISS MATHER IN “CYMBELINE." The following from the Philadelphia Press gives some idea of how her perform ance is looked upon in the larger cities of the country: "At the Park Theatre last evening Mar garet Mather, supported by a well-bal anced company, presented Shakespeare’s comedy, “Cymbeline,” which, through its masterly performance and magnificence of scenic detail, created so favorable an im pression last year. Os the play itself, there cannot be two opinions. As to its presentation last evening, save in a few minor instances, there can be nothing but just praise. There have been changes in the cast since last year, and if these do not strengthen the production ds a whole, they at least do not weaken it. P.ut the chief feature of the performance, Miss Mather’s Imogene, remains to delight and charm by its delicacy and refinement of touch, and the sweet simplicity, yet con vincing force of its presentation. Harrison J. Wolfe was the Posthumus—by the way, last night was his first appearance in the rob—O’Kane Hills, the Cymbeline; B. T. Ringgold the Cloten, and E. A. Eberle the Belarius. Not to individualize, they all ap peared to good advantage. Mark Price, the Jachimo, was especially happy in his impersonation. A splendid audience wit nessed the production.” Plies, I'lieH. t-nesi Dr. Williams’ Indian Pile Ointment will sure Blind, Bleeding, and Itching Piles when all Other Ointments have failed.

EDNA DENIES That She Has Sued Hopper for Divorce but Will Leave El Capitan Company. Syracuse, N. Y., March 16.—Mrs. Edna Wallace Hopper, wife of De Wolf Hopper, comic opera comedian, emphatically denied in an interview last evening that she had brought suit for limited divorce, on the grounds oif abandonment and failure of her husband to support her, as stated in the dispatch-' sent out from New York yester day. She knows of no papers to be served on her husband in any such suit, by Howe & Hummel in a few days. •She said that she had no intention of suing her husband on any ground. She went from Albany -to New York a few days ago and called on Howe & Hum mel, where she signed a contract to appear in a leading part in a musical comedy by Kerger & Morton, to be produced by Man ager Lederer at the New York Casino, at the opening of the summer season. She said the contract was so favorable to her personal interests, and will give her such -t prominent role, that she anticipates the engagement with enthusiasm. , She will leave the El Capitan Company at the end of three weeks to begin active preparations for her summer engagement. She declared that her domestic relations with Hopper have had nothing to do with her determination to leave his company and appear in a new piece. lleats the Klomiyke. Mr. A. C.

New York, (March 16. —There was an in formal discussion at the Social Reform Cluo Saturday night, at which views out of tune with the general manual feelings were expressed. It was slated that war owuld indefinitely postpone the settleineat of social problems, that it would change all political currents and strengthen the hands ot’ those who desire government by the few. Ft was pointed out in history that rulers had always found foreign war a prime cure for domestic discontent. Mar feeling, it was argued, wiped out party lines, and it became a patriotic duty to suppont the government, namely: Vote for the party happening to be in power. War, it was said, would send free silver and similar questions to the limbo of forgotten things. War had certain ine vitable political and social consequences pleasing, to many to be ‘accepted by all as good citizens, but consequences just the same. t <_ -X' O -s.“eXu!V- stale -- « T l' Ail Must Pay, All persons taking The News by the week must pay promptly every week.
