The Easter News.
On Saturday next, April 2nd, The News
will i.H.-ue its annual Easter Edition,
which means this year 'the largest and
special issue of The N. ws
ever printed.
The News has arranged for numerous
special article' anil stories of peeulair in
terest, and. in a’ldition to these, its own
regular staff will exert itself to make the
paper more attractive still.
Os equal interest and attractiveness will
be the special Fasti r bargain announce
ments of Macon's livesl merchants. These
are being at ranged with special care this
year, and the ladies may look out for an
unusually rare treat.
Tin- Easter News will not only be an
< specially int< r. sting and attractive
newspaper, but it will be a bargain guide
of great value to the tliousniids of Macon
ladies who will make tin .bulk of the Eas
ier purchases next week. The leading
nierehants of .Macon will oiler special bar
gains foi the week, ami it will pay every
prospective buyer to wait for their an
nouncements in lite .Easter News.
But it will not pay the merchants to wait
until Easter is here before making these
announcements. The buying' begins tin
earnest next week. The thing to do is to
direct this trade your way. Your adver
tisement in "I’lie Nows will reach those
who have this buying to do. It affords yon
a rare opport inity to bring them your
way. It is your own fault if you fail to do
it.
All ad copy for the Easter News must be
sent in before Friday noon.
An English 'acrobat expects to come to
tills country and poise himself, with one
hand, on the top of the Washington mon
ument. The funeral arrangements will be.
announced liter, mentions the Augusta
Herald.
They Can’t Shake Him Off.
It is a very cute trick of Colonel Candler
and itis supporters to make It appear that
Governor W. Y. Atkinson and his friends
tire responsible for the opposition that is
generally manifested against, him through
out the state. The truth of the matter is
that Colom 1 Candler is himavlf responsible
for the deflei lion from his standard. He
had no opposition anil would have had
(none. save for his own foolish, cruel and
unfounded charges against his fellow-
Dctnoerats.- \upusta Herald.
Now does the lb .all really believe that?
Os course not. The Herald isn't such a
fool that it failed to understand what was
.transpiring several days in fore that Rome
tetter was written. It knows very well
that Governor Atkinson aroused this op
position to Candler just as soon as lie re
turned from Mexico to find that his friend
Joe Terrell had quit the race- because of
his tiro intimate connection with the gov
ernor. It knows that this so rankled in
Hill Atkinson's ast that he determined j
to arouse opposition to Candler or die try
ing. It knows tli'.t hi timtlli succeeded in
pp'hing Spanner R Atkinson into the race,
ord that forthw th the governor’s forces
lined up for him. And the Herald was
among the number.
Hut we don't blame the Herald for being
ashamed of it And we don't blame Spen
cer R. from denying not only kinship but
.all political connection with William
Yates.
The people, however, fully understand
the ease. They are not so easily fooled
as the Herald evid. ntly believes. They
know that Colonel Candler's Rome letter
—imply hit the ducks before they lit. That's
all.
Hon. Allen D. Candler’s initiative
epci .-h in Rome Saturday was in its every
sentence worthy of the honest. Strong and
able man from which it emanated. It was
in every sentence the speech of a fearless
Democrat.— Times-Recorder.
A Populistic Trait Revealed.
As showing the propensity of the. aver
age 1 opulis: for always desiring the im
possible. the Woodbury Messenger, nee
Woodbury Woodchuck, publishes at its
mast head the following state ticket:
For Governor—-Thomas E Watson
For Attorney General-XJarey J. Thorn
ton.
For Comptroller General—Ben Milliken
. For Secretary of State—R. o. Jackson.
For State Treasurer—J. H. Taylor.
Foy Commissioner of Agriculture—*W L
(Peek. ,
K<.r State School Commissioner—B. M
(Zottler.
For Prison Comm -sioncr_.T g Davitt
For Chief Justice—Walter B. Hill.
For *ssc iate Justie*. Long T.nm— Ciair
born Snead.
For oeiate Justice, Short Term—-.W
R. Leakin.
Not only is the election of any one ot
the above impossible, but not three of the
gentlemen mentioned will accept the nom
ination.
This however, does rot deter the dyed
in-the-wool Populist. On the contrary it
makes him the more ardent in his support.
IThere is something in his nature that
makes him pine for the impossible. The
(more impossible it is, the more docs' he
(want it. And when he can arrange for
himself a ticket that not only cannot be
nominated—because none of the chosen
victims will submit—but cannot be elected,
•he is in the seventh heaven of Populistic
ecstacy.
From this standpoint the Woodbury
Messenger, nee Woodchuck, seems to have
arranged a ticket that should meet the
views of all bona fide m:dlle-of-the-puddlo
Populists.
Good Reason for Delay.
President McKinley is being sharply
criticised for his st-' iniugly diliatory tac
tics with reference io Cuoa, but it is Just
j,. ibie that he is wiser than his critics
:r. d laying an actual declaration of war
as long as possible.
If the president really intends to tem
rarize with Spain, then these criticisms
are just, but it is more probable that he is
simply sparring for wind, so to speak. In
other words, it is apparent to all that this,
govern men i is net yet prepared for hos
tiiitiis. ‘Ai have much to do before we
are r. adv for the f ray, which, if it must
come, promis.-s to b. short and decisive.
President McKinley has evidenly had
the proper conception of the situation, and
for week.- past has'been doing all in his
pawer to remedy it as rapiuly as possible.
But, unlike the nations of Europe, the
I i: 1 d States has never kept her army
and navy in constant fighting trim, so that
■•• hen a emit!: t threatens she lias much to
do to make ready.
A i-ast- in point is a report, that comes
from Washington to the- effect that the
president has admitted -o a congressman,
who v. ;i> urging in immediate declaration
cf war, that there was not enough ammu
nition in the country to last ten days in
cas. of continued h.jiiities. He stated
furthermore that our agents had been un
able to obtain any considerable amount
abroad and that Spain had some time ago
secured all that was obtainable and that
now thui country was '.veil supplied.
If true, this alone is sufficient to justify
the delay that is caused by the president's
'-actios. At any rate, it it; very clear that
it will not do for this country to go off
half-coe'md. Better this delay than to
a gun before we have ammunition
enough to back up such an act.
In the rti'antime, the president should
and no doubt will, remain steadfast in the
conviction that hostilities in Cuba must
cc.se. lie yields nothing by referring the
report on the Main’’ disaster to the Span
ish govet iiinent. But gains a few more
days In which to make ready for the strug
gle that still seems inevitable.
The editor of thr Americus Herald wants
Ito tai a kfall out of the liuke of Veragua
The Puke has seen fit to criticise President
Mi ;< is.ley and the rest of the Anu richn
people. It will be remembered that Ve
ragua is a descendant of Christopher t'o-
Juinbus ami that this nation paid him all
p ohor when he was here a few years
igo. It will also be remembered that he
is, or was, virtually a pauper and the peo
ple of the United States raised a large
fund for him. Now he turns around and
denouncos us in no uncertain terms. Such
is tin gratitude of a Spaniard.
The Columbus Herald is inclined to be
jocular when it says that the frankness and
the fairness of the Atlant* Journal during
the present state campaign is to be corn
in' mi’ I. :if it would include the Maion
Telegraph and the Rome Tribune under
lite sime head it would be positively hu
morous. ’Americas Herald.
A Kamas paper says: “Editor Stevens
of the Galena Port, is lying at the point
of (hath.” From thi- it is to be .inferred
that, the old saying nh.iut the "ruling pas
sion” ludd ifood in Editor Stevens' case.
Senator Ilanna says he doesn't want, to
buy Cuba But if she ever has a vote,
hu’ll want to.
liu;:s sml Hounds.
In the Roman period not only wero
sight hounds and scent hounds fully dif
ferentiated, but tin ro were also various
kinds oi lapdogs and housedogs, although
none quite like our incdorn breeds. Even
as far back as about 3000 B. C. Egpytian
frescoes show not only greyhoundlike
breeds, but one with drooping ears like a
hound a«d a third which has been com
pared to the modern turnspit, while house
dugs and lapdogs came in soon afterward.
W hot her any of these are the direct ances
tors of modirn breeds or whether all such
have been produced by subsequent cross
ing is a very diilicult question to answer,
more especially when wo recollect that if
an ant tent Egyptian artist had to draw
the portrait of a modern dog it would be
viry doubtful whether it. would be recog
nized by its .er or mistress.
But- the record of the antiquity of the
domest eatcil t:;:gs dues net even stop w ith
the vtiriiost know n Egyptian monuments.
Not only were such breeds known in Eu
rope during the iron and bronze ages,
but al; u during the antecedent neolithic or
polished stone j cried, 'i'hceo have been de
ti-.'ii'e:: by Professors Ruttimeyer and
Woldrich, ar-d tho.-.u who are acquainted
with the difficulty of distinguishing be
tween some of the living species by the
skulls alone will understand the laborious
nature of the task, tftill these authorities
appear to have made out that the Swiss
neolithic dog(Cai-is p.alustris) had certain
crania! resemblaitccs to both hounds and
spaniels, and thus indicate an advanced
type, which Ju considered to have been de
rived from neither wolves nor jackals, but
from somo species now extinct. Two oth
er breeds have also been recognized from
the superficial deposits of rhe continent,
and if. as Is very likely to be the eajie, any
or all of these races are tbo forerunners of
seme cf the modern breeds it will readily
be understood l-.ow comples is the origin
of the mixed group which we now call
Canis familiarls. Knowledge.
Sfotiiivvul Students.
We find a Paris scholar complaining of
the disorders of the schools and expressing
fear of personal violence, and a student at
Toulouse writes that a certain P., against
wbcm he had been w arned, before lead ing
his heme in Naibonne, had taken forcible
possession of his room and so disturbed
him in his work that be would like per
mission to go bun.e at Easter. At Orleans
a young man pleads fc.r help from his fa
ther because, having quarreled with a < ei
tain youth, us the devil would 1-sve it, he
struck him on ti e iKad with a stick, so
that he is now in prisv u and must pay f-0
livres tor bis ielea.-e, while bis enemy is
he.ited cf his wounds and goes free.
pranks of students were not al
ways seven iy judged we may perhaps in
for fruiii the letter of a prt lessor of law at.
Oiienns to lather at Besanccn in which
it is said that, while no doubt the man’s
.son G. was one of a crowd that had sung a
ribald song on «>n organ, the matter was
of nc impcrtaiicc, as the young man’s
general record was good and he was mak
ing excellent progress in law. Naturally,
too, the examples cf parental reproof have
something to say of the evils of the time,
particularly gambling and riotous living,
but in general the formularies reflect the
more virtuous side of student life, and fo>
a more adequate portrayal of its vice and
violence we u ust turn to the records cf
courts, the Goiiardic literature and the.
vigorous denunciations of ecnteirq unn y
preaeli ers.—A merica n Hi st or ica 1 Rev iew.

COUNCIL MEETING
Was Short and Business Before Aidermen
Quickly Disposed Ot.
The meeting of council last night was
one of the very shortest on record. Very
few matters of any public importance came
up except the report of the assessors and
the meeting was al! over in about twenty
minutes from start to finish. Only two
aide: men were absent—Wiuship and Wil
liams.
A number of citizens petitioned that the
Macon and Indian Spring car line be eom
peil' 1 to run its ears in the middle- of the
park on Third street instead of in the
street as at present ami the petition was
referred to the committee on streets. It
Is not at all probable that the petition will
be granted or that the company will be
compelled to change its tracks as, unless
the same rule is made to apply all over
the city it would be working a palpable
injustice beside the fact that it would
destroy the appi arance of oue of the pret
tiest parks in the city while the public
would not find that the change would add
to their convenience.
Council showed its determination not to
make fish of one and flesh of another by
refusing the piiitioii of the Macon, Dublin
and Savannah railroad to run its? telegraph
wires on poles through tlie city instead of
underground according to the ordinance.
The sidewalk committee in reporting on
a minor petition on chicken coops took
occasion to express the hope that council
would determine to prevent the placing of
these obnoxious obstructions on the side
walks of the city after the work of paving
has been completed and all the grades and
sidewalks have been laid.
I have been afflicted with rheumatism
for fourteeen years and nothing seemed to
give me any relief. 1 was able to be
around al Ithe time, but constantly suf
fering. I had tried everything 1 could hear
of and was at last told to try Chamber
lain’s Pain Balm, which 1 did, and was
immediately relieved and in a short time
cured. I am ‘happy to say that it has not
since returned. —Josh. Edgar, Germantown,

BBANN AS A LECTURER.
Something About the Method of the Icono
clast Editor.
The readers of the Iconoclast, and its
kindred publications, throughout the land,
have a well developed curiosity concern
ing the personality of the editor. They
will be afforded the opportunity for grati
fying same at an early day, as Mr. Brann
is now on the lecture platform and will
make the principal cities of the United
States. .Brann is a marked man in many
respects, in none, perhaps, so much as a
lecturer. Os fine presence, possessing that
unique quality termed personal magnet
ism, a magnificent talker, he enchains the
attention of all audiences and charms his
hearers regardless of sex. Os Mr. Brann
as a lecturer, the San Antonio Express has
this to say:
“Mr. W. C Brann lectured at the opera
house last, night. Although the rain fell in
torrents -all day and the streets were a
sea of mud, there was a maafnifleent au
dience present, the largest in fact that ever
paid an admission fee- to a lecture in San
Antonio. At a few minutes before 9 o’clock
Mr. Brann made bis appearance on the
stage unattended, he haviiig declined to
allow any one to introduce him, saying
that he ‘-needed no introduction to his
friends, and could find his enemies with
out a chaperone,’ The speaker drifted
naturally into his subject proper, and for
more than an hour and a half he held the
great audience spell-bound with his wit
and eloquence. He is intensely human.
He ranges at wiil through the mighty
realm of humbugery, striking right and
left like a giant. liis nervous energy is
terrific. It is electric; it fills the room
and weighs upon the auditor li’ke an op
pressive perfume."

" An 11l mined Text.
A young woman who lives on Capitol
bill and has a name which exactly ex
pt esses her nature spent a part of last
Summer in Atlantic City. There is in
Atlantic City an Episcopal church whose
doors are never closed. The pastor is ex
ceedingly devout and ultra high church,
and he re’es prayers every day. "The
V»ashington young woman went into the
church oue morning. Tim rector had just
begun to read tho service, and she was the
only listener. The rector finished the
prayers, and it then became evident that
he meant to do his full duty by his con
gregation. He was going to preach a ser
mon to the Washington young woman.
‘‘Dearly beloved,” he began, gazing ear
nestly into space, “I purpose speaking to
you this morning from the text”— and to
the dismay of his solitary listener he con
tinued, '’from the text, ‘Depart from me,
or I am a sinful man.’ ” —Chicago Inter

The Convention's Hard Task.
It is related that in the later forties, ot
the* veof a Democratic state convention ir
Alliany, Dean ilielnnond and PetcrCaggci
were in consultation. Something like tbit
was tlie dialogue between the two bosses:
“Whom shall we put up for governor?’
asked Richmond.
"Seymour will do. Ho is able, rospecta
ble, popular and will render the ticket
invincible,” answered Cagger. And Sey
mour's name w ent down.
‘ Who tor attorney general?” queried
Richmond '■ •-
‘‘Oh, Tremaine. «Hc is by fur the best
of the lot Besides, wo want the Van
Buren influence.” And down went Tre
maine
‘'Who for secretary of state?” quoth
Richmond.
“Van Ness. He is capable anclrespect
able, iim. we want the influence of th.’
Knickerbockers anyhow.” And down
went Van Ness. And so it was until the
ticket- was completed, with the exception
of superintendent of education.
“Peter; whom shall we name for that?
There are three or four candidates. I
never heard of either of them before,” said
Richmond.
“Oh, d: —n it,” returned Cagger, “let.
the convention nominate the candidate for
superintendent, of public education. ” And
down that went too
The following day the convention put
through the slate so constructed in less
than two hours. It required more than
two days to nominate the candidate for
superintendent of education.—Louisville

Dyspepsia
DID IT
Weakened One Maa’s Constitution
Qntii It Brought Him to
Death’s Door.
Mr. .Tames S. Harrison, a well-known
and highly respected citizen of Cleve
land, 0., was for years a sufferer from
dyspepsia and general debility, d.nd in
his weakened condition, result ing from
the above causes, he. had the additional
ill-luck to fall a victim to malaria from
this complication of disorders. Mr.
Il arrison’s condition was becoming very
serious, when he commenced to take P.
P. P., Lippman’s Great Remedy. Its
effects were marked and immediate.
Read his letter to us. Its earnestness
is apparent:
Gentlemen: For the benefit of all
suffering from dyspepsia and general
debility I beg to submit my testimonial
as to the efficacy of your P. P. P., Lipp
man’s Great Remedy, as a* positive
cure Jor all the distressing complaints
from which I suffered.
My system was also full of Malaria
and my condition was growing very
serious ; I had no appetite, was losing
strength and wa.s completely broken
down in health, but now my health is
completely restored, and I can eat like
a field laborer, without the slightest
fear of any serious results,
I take great pleasure in telling the
world that P. P. P. did the grand work
of restoring me to my accustomed
health. Yours truly, '
JAMES S. HARRISON,
Cleveland, O.
