ELECTRIC PUT isj»n Ail the Plans Have Been Made and as Predicted Yester day by The News IT'SHOOD THUS FOB MICOI K Long Feit Want is About to be Supplied - the Matter Has Been Unavoidably Delayed. l.'nif - : .'-me of the plans now on foot go radially wrong Macon will have another <]<■< !) ■ lirht plant well on the way or at least secund within the next thirty days. Yesterday the hint was thrown cut that something is going to drop at an early date and that while the facts were known to a few people they had not been made publi , in fact that they had been kept most remarkably quiet. As a matter cf fact the details of the plan are still a close secret, but it may be stated that the final arrangements have about bt < n made and that an electric light plant with <x capacity sufficient to supply Macon with all that she needs at any time and a great deal more than she needs at present is an assured ract. When the de tails are given out the pub lic will be well pleased and even now the infarmation being positive it will be a source of the greatest pleasure' to those who recognize the fact that a good electric light pl in I is one of the greatest needs of this city. The capacity of the present plant is not Kuffiricnt to supply the demand. This is ackno-A 1( dged on every side. It has been stated before that the matter was under consideration, but that any of the details have been determined upon or that anyfor ward sRp- have been taken will be good news to all of those who are not on the inside of what has been going on for some time. As a matter of fact the arrangements would have been brought to a head some time ago but for some unavoidable delays for which the parties interested principally in bringing the undertaking to a Jiead were not responsible. The proposed plant is a large one and it means the investment of a considerable amount of money in Macon. It means also that Macon will have enough power and to spare to supply all the factories that may come here and to give the lights throughout the city at a low rate. Electricity has become a necessity. As a motor power it is indispensable in the future of any city that aspires to become anything of a manufacturing centre. This fact his been recognized by those who have been interesting themselves in this movement and the result will be a big thing for the city and will do more to en sure progress In the future than anything that has happened here for many a year.

The local florists are said to be over-run with orders which they cannot fill. For some reason or other, the lilies arc not here. And yet the people want lilies for East er. In fact, must have. them. For Easter wouldn’t be Easter without the lilies. With commendable enterprise a local enterprise has undertaken to meet the de ficiency in the Easter lily market by or dering a large number direct frorq. Ber muda. These lilies come byway of New York, this tjade having become an impor tant industry. They reach here as fresh ns if gFown in our own hot houses, and are - aid to be even more beautiful and stately than any grown in this country. It will be gratifying news to the ladies of Macon to know that the Macon market is to be supplemented by an additional supply of two or three hundred Easter lilies, and they have the Streyer Seed Company to thank for this piece of enter prise. The order for these lilies is to be sent forward by wire next Wednesday, and all who are likvly to want lilies for Easter had best send or telephone their order to the StrejTr Seed Company before Wednes day next.

Dr. Bachman, the grand evangelist, who has delighted so many of the Chistian people of ail denominations by his dis courses in the Presbyterian churehe-s of the city, took his leave last night at the Tatt nall Square church, to the regret of every one in the large audiece, and all with whom he has come in contact during h:s sojourn in this city. His ministrations have been wonderfully blessed to the salvation of the souls of many, the comforting and upbuilding of the Christian life, and character of others, and his influence for good in this com munity will continue to spread wide and be long lasting. Rev. R. >R. White and Dr. Morris spoke in the kindest and most thankful manner for the good he has done them, and they believed many others. The venerable servant cf God said that he had greatly enjoyed the meetings at both churches, as well as his stay in the city. The congregation joined most hcartilj singing “God be with you till we meet again,” and with scarcely an exception, the congregation, after the benediction pressed forward to ‘bid him good bye. Thus ended a glorious season of revival of pure and undefU- 1 religion, old time, if you but none the worse for that. In scriptural and choice language, unsensa tional, no attacks on the institutions that the people of God find is necessary at the proper time, in the proper way to combat, but love to God and man inculcated and recommended to everyone.

Washington, April I.—ln the state, .war and navy building are centered the diplo matic, military and navaj interests of the country. It is the center of the warlike preparations that have been prosecuted with almost feverish energy. It is also one of the busiest places in the world these days. Contract involving vast .amounts of money are executed every day. The ex penditures for March will aggregate many millions of dollars. The millions will in clude the lion’s share of the vast defense fund. The south front of the building com mands a view of the Potomac flats, the monument aaid the river in the back ground. The State Department occupies the south side of the building, on the sec ond floor above the basement. On the right is the east front and the entrance leading to the navy department. The Whitehouse grounds are just across the street, and* during these days of war (almost) there is a constant procession of citizens, many of them of high degree, be tween the State, War and Navy building and the executive mansion. The War Department officials occupy the north and west sections of the build ing. The structure is 342 feet front (notth) on Pennsylvania avenue, and 565 feet deep. It was built qf granite and has been ad vertised as the largest am! most magnifi cent building in the world. It contains 500 rooms. There are two miles of marble hallways. The stairways are of granite and the bal usters of bronze. The building is of fire proof consrtuction, but, as an additional precaution, it has been liberally supplied with fire plugs and hose. That is because the records in the building are priceless. The walls are hung with fine paintings, some of them the work of famous artists. The furnishings of some of the rooms are luxurious. , In the hallways are cases containing flags, figures clothed in army uniforms of various periods and models of war ships. The latter include a fine model of the battleship Maine, for the use of which an enterprising exhibitor offered SIO,OOO per week. The building was erected about twenty years ago. THE MAIN QUESTION. A Good Popular-Price Attraction Here Next Week. The main question which .is absorbing the mind of the world at present is the Maine affair. However great that matter is, Macon has one of greater .import ance, and that is this: That clever little fellow, Punch Robertson, surrounded by a company of players well and favorably known to all the patrons of the opera house, opens his five nights engagement Tuesday night. In order to secure good seats you must be at Harry Jones’ place Monday. That’s the main question. Re there at 9 o’clock. This little fellow has a complete reportoire of new aqutedy, scenic dramas this season, and carries all his own scenery. That punch likes Macon and Maeqn people is evident, for he has uad three men in the city preparing for him. Punch Robertson is a prime favor ite here, both off and am the stage, and 'v.'hy shouldn’t he be, for he has never broken faith with the people, and his peo ple always give him the best ’’plums in the pudding."

MACON NEWS FRIDAY EVENING, APRIL i 1898. KINDNESS FINOS ' ITS OWNJEWARD Appeal to Mayor Price From a Widowed Mother in Be half of Only Child. HE WROTE HER A LETTER Full of the Respect and Courtesy Due, and Then He Sent for the Son, and What Followed, A few days ago Mayor Price received a letter from a neighboring town asking his kind officers for an unfortunate boy. the child of a widowed mother, who was in great distress on account of her son, re ported to her to be in the clutches of. the Macon, police, but on what count the writer, who was a friend of the mother, was not informed. The letter stated that the boy was the son of the late Rev. E. Wolcott, D. D., and that the mother was nearly crazed over the report that had reached her about her boy. The mayor was asked to return the youth to his mother if such a thing were possible. By the next mail came a pathetic letter from the mother. It was one of those epis tles that would wring sympathy from a heart much more adamantine than that of the kind hearted mayor of Macon who does much good on the quiet and does not let the one hand know what the other one is doing. The mother wrote in distress. She said that the boy was her only child and her only hope. She asked, as only a mother can, that the mayor help her and her boy. It was a long letter, and after reading it the mayor sat down and wrote to the mother telling her that he would at once attend to the matter and return the boy to her. He delicately told her that he had received her letter too late 10 get word to the county “work-house” that night, but that next day he would have the boy brought in and, at his own expense, would send him home. The word work-house was used to save the mother from .the knowledge that her child was in the chaingang. He further stated that the only charge against the boy was that of vagrancy and that he had not been guilty of any crime. The mayor concluded the letter expressing the hope that after the boy’s return home he would grow up to be a comfort to this he would grow up to be a comfor’ to this mother in her declining years. He “beg ged to remain with great respect, my dear madam, yours, etc.” At the same time the mayor sent out a message to Superintendent Paschal at the chaingang requesting him to send the boy in to him next morning with a note. When the roayqr reached his office next morning he knew that he would find wait ing for him the son of the deceased doctor of divinity and had prepared to remind him of the story of the prodigal son and with kindly advice to send him home to his maternal relative. Sure enough, the boy was there; but when the mayor saw him his heart failed him. He took him by the arm and putting him inside the door of the clerk’s office where Bridges Smith, who knew of the circumstances, was waiting, anxious to see the boy and add some fatherly advice to that given by the mayor. “Bridges,” said his honor, “make out a pass for this boy to Americus and charge it to me.” Then he shut the door and walked quickly away and out of the city hall, nor was he seen again that day. The erring youth and scion of a noble stock was as black as .the ace of spades. r 31 l<,<i A J Everybody ought to about the impor tance of pure blood, and how to purify tainted blood.
