WE TROOPS ON MB FOOTING 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. Retail Grocery Clerks, Attention!

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.

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.

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 Chronicle.
