GREAT MUSICAL FESTIVAL HERE Next Month Will Bring to Ma con the Greatest Aggre gation Ever South, m-TM NOTED ARTISTS Will Take Part in the Festival—The Full Orchestra From the Boston and New York Orchestras. Heretofore the people of the South have b« cn compelled to go to Cincinnati, Wor ci stcr or Boston, to enjoy the annual May musi al festival, but now there is a move ment set on foot by Atkinson & Co., at Boston, to establish a circuit of twelve musical festivals in the South, and our iia-'ople need not go to the above men tioned points. Macon’s musical festival will be a gi gantic affair in that forty-two artists .of national and international fame have been engaged and the full orchestra from the Boston Symphony and Seidl New York or chestras. Three performances will be given, first evening, oratoric; second evening, selec tions from grand opera, and a matinee of popular music. Atkinson & Co. have met wi-th wonder ful success in this enterprise and it re mains for the people of IMacon to decide whether or' not the city shall have an an nual visit from some of the great artists in festival. The aggregation for the festival is he id. d- by the charming prima donna of the Opera Comique, Paris, Alice . Verlet. Mlle. Verlet has been capturing New York and Boston audiences, and has recently made an extended teur with Yasaya Ger ardy and Pugno. The other artists are Gustave Strube, of the Boston Symphony orcht stra, director; Maud Pratt-Chase, New York, soprano; Mlle. Nannie Hands, .Boston, soprano; Grace Preston, of the Nordica Concert Company, contrails; Carrie Bridewell, New York, contralto; S. Kronberg, Boston, baritone; S. Kerr, Bos ton. bass; Harry Lucius Chase, New York, baritone; John A. Jackson. New York l tenor; Henry IMitchell, New York, tenor; three solo violinists, Frank Kennedy, Emanuel Feidler and Condone Gordon; Margaret McNulty, harpist; Felix Fox, of Leipsit conservatory, Berlin, pianist; Herr Van Vlict, cello soloist; Paul Fox, flute; and ißavier Reiter, the greatest French horn soloist in the world, besides a full or chestra from Boston Symphony and Seidl Now York orchestra. This is a great aggregation of artists. A double quartet is a feature that has char acterized no organization of this kind heretofore. The popularity of the May festival has been gaining wherever it has been inaugurated until now, in some cities, as Cincinnati, it is an unusual occasion to which the people look forward with as much expectancy as towards Christmas or the Fourth of July, and its artistic pur pose makese it more enjoyable than any celebration could possibly be.

FOUR INSPECTORS Asked for to Make Complete House to Route Inspection. Some time ago the Board of Health asked the mayor to appoint four extra in spectors for the purpose of making a house to house inspection of the city in order to secure the inforcement of the ordinance requiring everyone to be vaccinated. The request was net acted on at the time as the mayor did not think that the extra expense would be warranted under the circumstances, but the Board of Health has officially repeated the request’and the matter was last night referred to the fi nance committee. It is probable that at the next meeting of the city council this committee will re commend the appointment of the inspec tors in order that no stumbling block may be placed in the way of the board which is doing everything in its power to stamp out all appearance of smallpox from the city and seems to be succeeding well.

If Spain and the United States get to Georgia and other ports north will have an interesting experience, says the Atlanta Constitution. Some of the coastwise steamers are as fast as most of the Spanish warships, and could take care of themselves witn half a showing, but the slower vessels would not dare to get very far from shore. There are a number of good harbors along the coast, but some of them are many miles apart, and it might be possible for a swift cruis er to get within close range in two hours’ run. The Kansas City could show her he-, is to any of them, but there arc very few vessels on the coast which could keep within sight of the Kansas City more than three hours. Fourteen to fifteen knots an hour is a good gait for most of "the coast ers, while the cruisers and privateers can make from sixteen to twenty knots an hour. The first effect on the coasting ships would be a falling oil in their passenger list. It the marine insurance was not too high, the ships would get plenty of freight. They would not lei the freight escape them, so long as the rates con trolled it,‘ because it the railroads once got to carrying the freight the ships might not have an easy time recovering their patronage after the war. English underwriters have offered to take war risks at one-hait of 1 per cent, on a time contract. The gulf steamship lines might have to suspend operations for a while, because their route exposes them to Spanish ves sels in passing around Key West. The large amount of American shipping which goes up and down the Atlantic coast, and through the Gull of Mexico, would natu rally concentrate the Spanish privateers and gunboats off the southern coast. Os course the American warships would be on watchout, and some terrible engage ments would occur in southern walers. Many of the coastwise ships would be fit ted up themselves with guns, and they would be able to defend themselves against trie average privateer, but they could not do anything but run when a cruiser put in an appearance. The American ships could put them selves under a foreign flag, if the mana gers chose Ito take that step, by selling the vessels to a foreign flrm, and taking a mortgage for the full value of each ves sel, and have the managing, clause insert ed in each mortgage. American shipowners seem to be of the opinion that the war would be so short Ithat it w r ould not be wortih while to change the flag. If the worst come to the worst, the ships could be laid up until the war was over, and no one believes that they would have to be tied up very long. On (the Georgia coast, Savannah and Brunswick have lines to (New York, -and Savannah has a direct line to Baltimore. The sailings average one a day. There are also lines out of Jacksonville, Charles ton, Wilmington and Portsmouth to New York, so there are always slhips passing up and down the coast. If the Spaniards were Ito make a dash for one of these coasting steamers it might run into more than it was expecting, lor the American navy would have good fighting ships along the coast, too, and it would be perilous for a privalteer to venture within sight.

Brunswick, Ga., March 30- —Prince Leo pold. of Belgium, and party, composed of Lieutenant Colonel Junzboluth, Dr. Mells and the counselor to the Belgian legation at Washington, M. Maurice Joostens, have been spending a few days on Jeyki island. They left this morning for St. - Augustine, Fla., and will also visit Palm beach. The prince is traveling incognito under the name of Comte d’Ethy. After being entertained at Washington by President McKinley, he began a tour 01' the United States. He is accepting no private invita tions, but came to Jekyl island as a guest of the club on the card of Mr. Robert W. De Forrest. It. is his intention Iff make a thorough toiw ol this country for the pur pose of observing the methods of .American living. His idea in traveling incognito is to avoid as much publicity as possible. This morning an effort to obtain an in terview with the prince direct failed, be cause of his limited command of English. The Belgian counselor proved courteous and agreeable, however, and gave an out line of the prince’s intentions, with the request that as little be said about the party’s movements as possible. The prince will write a book on his return home, and tell what he thinks of America. He is next in line to the throne now occupied by his uncle, and is a hearty specimen of manhood. After a few days in Florida the .party will return north and from there tour the east. REMINDER OF EARTHQUAKE Records at the City Hall Show an Interest ing Entry. The records at the city hall contain a significant reminder of the night of the earthquake in August, 1886, which so near ly swallowed up Charleston, and was felt all over this state. Council was in session ’that night. In the absence of Clerk Blue, Colonel C. IM. Wiley, who was chief of police at the time, was acting as clerk. When the ’quake was felt the aidermen failed to understand at first the cause of the disturbance and looked blankly at one another for a minute. Then someone shbuted “earthquake,” and the city fathers stood not on the order of their going but went, leaving Colonel Wiley to get out with the papets and books as -best he might. By the time he had gathered these up the earthquake was over, but the ai dermen had decided to give it a week to pass along and did not return. Before closing the office Colonel Wiley wrote up the minutes of the meeting to the time the stampede took place and the single-line at the foot of these minutes tells the rest of the story, where, in the hand writing of the Colonel, the following en try is made. "On motion of the city hall council then adjourned.” You can talk to 16.000 every day through the colueibx "f ’Ch» SI,OOO DEPOSIT MADE. How a Macon Institution Gives Guaranties and Backs Them.

Ail Important Facts Put Up on Small Com pass for Reference. The United States is the fifth naval pow er in the world. The navies of Great Britain. France, Russia and Italy rank ahead in the order named. Germany and the United States are about tied. Our present effective fighting force con sists of four battleships of the second class two armcred cruisers, eighteen cruisers, fifteen gunboats, six double turreted mon itors, one ram, one dynamite gunboat, one dispatch-boat, oue transport and eight tor pedo-boats. The lowa weighs nearly 12,000 tons, afid as twenty tens is the average lead of, a freight ear and twelve cars are a good load for a locomotive engine, it would take fifty locomotives to haul the great steel structure. The powder used is brown and in chunks the size of a caramel. A charge for the biggest guns weighs 500 pounds and is hoisted to the breech by a derrick, thw powder being sewed up in burlap bags. Armor plates are tested by firing steel projectives weighing from 100 to ,1500 pounds at them from the guns charged with 500 pounds of powder and at the dis tance of about a city block. Our battleships have a speed of from 15 to 17 knots an hour. Cruisers make 19 to 21 knots, while the monitors can travel only 5 to 7 knots. The biggest guns in the navy are 49 feet long, big enough for a man to crawl into; 4 feet in diameter at their largest part and weight 135,000 pounds or thereabouts. There are six rear admirals in active service. The offices of the admiral and vice-admiral are unfilh <l, so there is no head of the navy excepting Secretary Long. Barnacles form on the hull of a ship, impeding its speed. A six months’ cruise wil decrease the speed of a ship 15 per cent, and it roust go into dry dock. Sixty-one merchant vessels belong to the auxiliary navy. These ships are sub sidized and. by contract, must be given to the United States on demand. Some of the guns in the navy can fire a shot 12 miles, farther than a man can see, for the guns are aimed and sighted by machinery. The amount expended by the navy de partment in 1897 was $34,561,546. This is a larger sum than has been expended in any year since 1866. In a battle the woodwork and all arti cles of wood are either stowed below or thrown overboard, lest the men be injured by splinters. The origin of the navy department may be said to date from October 13, 1775, when congress authorized the equipment of two cruisers. The fastest vessels in the navy are the torpedo boats Porter and Dupont, each of which can travel 27.5 knots an hour. Battleships cost from $2,500,000 .to $3,- 750,000, exclusive of-nrmament, and crui sers from $600,000 to $3,000,000. A good torpedo boat costs over SIOO,OOO. READY FOR WAR. Macon Military Watching the Situation Very Closely. Macon stands ready to send fully 300 hundred men to the front in the event of a call to arms. The military spirit has -been on intensified within the last few days and the different companies have eagerly watched the reports. Last night’s dispatches seemed to indicate trouble with more emphasis than at any time since the first excitement that followed the destruc tion of the Maine. The military companies are all in good shape and all four of them will send their full quota of men to the ■ front when the call comes. - Catarrh is the pathway that leads S£ ; .to the pitfall of Consump- /’J.
