No Encampment Will be Held
This Year But Instead the
Money Will Go To
, BUY ALL EQUIPMENTS
Necessary for the Use of the Troops
in Active Service -Special Ses
sion May be Called,
The encampment of Georgia volunteers
will not be held this year, but, instead the
appropriation 'or rhe encampment purpo
ses will be devoted to the purchase erf
supplies necessary to put the state troops
on a war
This was decided at a meeting of the
military advisory (board in Atlanta yester
day.
Among other things on the report of the
adjutant general, the recommendation was
made that the Bibb County Blues, one of
the colored military companies, be dis
banded unless it can at once put itsc-lf in
condition to stand the annual inspection.
There are at present about 4,500 troops
In the state military organizations. These
troops will be equipped with the money
j already in hand, and if the war should
come with such serious force as to demand
other troops, the legislature will be called
in special session to appropriate other
money.
The advisory beard yesterday declined
to admit twelve companies into the mili
tia, because the state has not enough
money to properly equip thdta. The appli
cations of these companies were simply
held up until the state can find itself in
a position to furnish the new men with
arms and equipment. The memlbers of the
advisory board feel certain that the state
militia could be increased to 12,000 with
little trouble and in a short time.
Governor Atkinson this morning met
with a committee of three of the board
and decided upon the necessary equip
ments to purchase for the state’s army.
The committee is composed of Captain Jor
dan F. Brooks, Major Kendrick and Cap
tain William A. Patton.
This committee will remain in Atlanta
for a day or two and make the arrange
ments for supplying the troops. After all
the necessary purchases have been made,
Hf there is a sufficient sum left, there may
'be a small encampment held, but this is
hardly likely, as the full amount available
is barely sufficient to put the state troops
Into the field ready to fight.
The state legislature at the last session
appropriated '525,000 for the militia, to be
used for the encampment and Other ex
penses o.f the organization. Besides this
sum there is something over $5,000 of the
military appropriation for last year .which
was unexpended. This sum is further sup
plemented by $12,000 is due the state as its
annual allowance for the military. All oif
this will be necessary to buy 'blankets,
overcoats and cooking utensils for the sol
diers. There will be little, if any, left
for an encampment.

A GREAT HELP TO SURGERY.
Discovery of a Young Surgeon Announced
to the Academy of Medicine.
At the last regular meeting of the Acad-
I emy of Medicine a young physician who
bus made rapid strides in his profession
j read a paper on "Intestinal Irrigation."
j The paper was illustrated by an exhibition
of the appliances used by the physician in
; irrigating the intestines. The
j it seems, are of kis own in-vention, aild OV
their use physicians are now enabled to
accomplish results in the treatment of in
testinal troubles which before the young
doctor began his experiments were diffi
cult aiid in many cases impossible to ac
complish.
Briefly the appliance invented by the
young doctor is this: To the pipe of an or
dinary fountain stringo he has-attachcii
j two nozzles. Through one of these the i
rigutiug stream passes, and from the othf:
the water used in the irrigating p-rucest
Gows out. By the use of these two nuzzles
and by keeping the reservoir of tho syringe
filled, an uninterrupted flow of water maj
be maintained.
When the reading of the paper was con
eluded, it was discussed by seme of the
best known physicians in town. Dr. Rob
ert 11. M. Dawbarn said that until sur
geons had learned of the experiment and
the invention they bad not known of any
satisfactory way of treating patients Im
shock loliowing surgical operations.
"Although segreatan advance has been
made in the science of surgery in the last
hundred years.” said Dr. Dawbarn, “little
has been added to the surgeon’s knowledge
of treating shock. Many more persons
have died of the shock following the oper
ation than from ail the other effects of the
operation combined. Now that we have
the result of these experiments and thi>
j invention we need no longer fear death
! from shock. The doctor Ims experimented
j with a soluticn of salt in w»;ter. When 1
' learned of the result of his experiments, I
1 procured one o£ histyriiiges fitsedw itb the
| double tube- I have used this in 12 or 14
cases in the bespit;:! ai;er serious major
operations. The operation pertoriucd. 1
' wot id open a vein and irrigate it with the
Balin ■ solution In every case the patient
j did net sutler from shock at all, and |n
‘ each case the patient is now well. Ido
; not think it would have been possible to
i save some of these patients from death
: from slicck had I not known of the dcc-
I tor’s appfianee and his experiments. For
surgery I count « bat he has accomplished
almost equal to the dis.a>vcry of the vac
cine virus.’’—New York Sup.

Robert Fulton’s Torpedoes.
Before he turned his* attention to navi
gation by steam Robert Fulton invented a
marine torpedo which he endeavored to
dispose of to the United States govern
ment. Succeeding in interesting James
Madison, then secretary of state, in the
matter, he obtained a .-mall appropriation
from the government for the purposp of
con ducting some public, experiments. In
the summer of 18GO lie inyited the high
dignitaries and a number of prominent
citizens of New York to Governor’s island
to see the torpedoes and machinery with
which his experiments were to bo made.
While he was lecturing on his blank tor
pedoes, which were large, empty copper
cylinders, his numerous auditors crowded
around him. Alter awhile 1.0 turned to a
copper ease'of the same description which
was placed under t.'.u gateway of old Cas
tle William and to which was attached a
clockwia k k>; k.
Drawing out a peg. Fulton set the clock
in metmp, :<ml (la;. In. said in solemn
lumsiohm aitenti\e auuience: “Gentie
mcii, tiii.-: is a < imrgeii torpedo, with
W'iii;•!», precisely in its present state, 1
mean to blow up a vessel. It contains 17(1
pounds of gunpowder, and if 1 were to
sullt r the clockwerk to 'run 15 minutes
I Lave no doubt that it would blow' this
fortification io atoms.”
The circle of humanity which had closed
around the inventor began to spread out
and grow thinner, and before five of the
15 minutes bail passed there wei-e but two
or three persons remaining under the gate
way Some, indeed, lost no time in get
ting at the greatest possible distance from
the torpedo, ami they did not again appear
on tbeground until they that
the engine of destruction was safely lodged
in the magazine whence it had been taken.

King’s Daughters Will Hold
Their Next Annual Ses
sion in This City.
CHILO LABOR DISCUSSED
At the Meeting in Augusta and the
King’s Daughters Will Take
the Matter Up.
The state convention of the King’s
Daughters will be held in Macon next
year.
This was decided at the state convention
which adjourned yesterday in Augusta.
At the meeting in Augusta a matter was
taken up in which the people of the state
are deeply interes-ted aud to which atten
tion was called by a special article iu The
Evening News some time ago by Miss
Mary I’attersou.
That article brought the matter to the
attention of the people ot the state to a
greater exte-rut than ever before. It was
commented upon by the state press and the
writer received’ many commendations of
her course from outside sources.
Folowing is a detailed account of the ac
tion taken at the meeting:
An interesting discussion led by Mrs.
Wilson, of Savannah, followed, leading to
plans whereby assistance and enrounage
meut can be rendered to women who are
dependent on tbier own efforts for sup
port.
MisS Colding, of Savannah, recommended
that the King’s Daughters pledge them
selves to observe the early closing move
ment as one of the most appreciated helps
of the young girls who are working in
stores.
Mrs. Davis suggested that one momth in
the year should be devoted to the work of
the order, the other eleven being given to
the local branch. She spoke touchingly of
the suffering of the Cubans and requested
that assistance be given them as- soon as
possible, the donations to be sent through
the central council.
At the afternoon session the election of
officers was held.
Mrs. C. A. Roland, of Augusta, was
elected state secretary; Mrs. Taggart, of
Savannah, recording secretary; executive
committee, Mrs. W: 11. Warren, Mrs. I. T.
Heard and Mrau O. C. Evans.
Mrs. Florence Colding, of Savannah,
rendered a solo that was much enjoyed.
Resolutions of recommendation for en
larged work of the order, also thanks
were passed.
It was recommended that the King's
Daughters study the laws in regard to
child labor and Lake such measures as will
alleviate this phase of life.
At the evening session addresses were
made by Dr. J. T. , tunket, pastor of the
First Pregbyterian church, and Mrs. Davis,
of New York, and a fine musical program
was rendered.
Macon was selected as the next place of
meeting.
FROSTTONIGHT.
No Damage Has Been Done
to the Peaches, However,
so Far.
So far no damage has been done to the
fruit crop around Fort Valley, Marshall
ville, and that section of the fruit belt
that is tributary to Macon.
The fruit growers are building fires
around the orchars today as the weather
man has predicted frost for tomorrow* and
there is fear that the result may be worse
than this morning.
The change of the 'temperature was very
rapid and the warning in The News came
just in time. But the danger is not over
nor will it be until' tomorrow when the
frost is expected to come this way again.
Telephone messages from Fort Valley
this morning say that no damage has been
done. The fruit growers are now hopeful
that all damage may be averted as it is
net expected that the temperature will
fall below what it was yesterday.
But the cold wave flag i.rili hangs out at
the city nail and below it is a lugubrious
yellow missive bearing the legend: “Fro-:t
may be expected Thursday morning.”
Unruly Sledge Dcgj.
Carlo, a big retriever, opened the ball
by killing one of the Ostiak dogs. He
swaggered about among thp pack and ex
hibited ail the supposed characteristics of
the Britisher abroad. To check his homi
cidal, or rather enuieidal, proclivities, I
tied the dead dog round his neck. This,
however, ue evidently viewed as an excel
lent arrangement, especially devised for
the arctic, where the food supply is defect
ive, and at once proceeded to make a cold
lunch of bis late adversary, looking up at
me with grateful eyes, evidently thinking
that it was very considerate pf Jackson
thus to provide him with a larder right at
hand. After this the dead dog was re
moved, and Carlo was always decorated
with a muzzle. I afterward made a good
sledge dog of him, but he could not stand
the severe cliinate<and, although t he doc
tor made a blanket coat for him, the poor
old chap died sledging during the first
fortnight in spite of it.
The rest of the pack were hardly less
bellicose, but conducted their battles on
lines hardly in accordance with civilized
warfare. With the exception of two or
three dogs, 1 always had the entire pack
chained up, having taken out a large sup
ply of English chains, but I found these
quite inadequate to restrain these compar
atively small dogs. One dog would break
loose and then commence a fight with an
other. The whole pack would become
wildly excited, and one chain after another
would snap, and ail would then fail upon
the losing combatant. The result would
be another dead dog.—Geographical Jour
nal.
The Inventor of “Larrikin.”
The real origin and patentee of the word
"larrikin - ’ was au Irish reporter named
O’Hea, who was employed on the Mel
bourne Argus in the early seventies. He
regularly attended the city police court,
where he had as a colleague in the press
box Mr. Harold Dominick Bellew, who
represented the Melbourne Hdrald, and
who, as Mr. Kyrle Bellew, is now playing
Claude Melnotte. They were rivals in the
art of picturesque paragraph writing, and
each was constantly on the alert for serv
iceable humorous incidents.
Mr. O’Hea seized upon the elongation
by an Irish sergeant of police of the fa
miliar word “larking” into the three sylla
bled "larrikin” and utilized it for a very
amusing paragraph. The word did not
immediately catch on with the- general
public, but Mr. O’Hea drove it into circu
lation by constantly using it iu his reports
as a synonym for the young Melbourne
Street rough. It was gradually accepted
and eventually became incorporated in the
Anglo-Australian language. London
