An interesting legal point has arisen in connection with the proposition to inter vene in Cuba without recognizing the in dependence of the island. The l< gal opinion is expressed, that if the United Stales should intervene for the purpose of establishing the freedom of Cuba, at the same time recognizing that at the time of intervent ion the .island is still a Spanish province, this might Incur a moral obligation for the bonds issued by Spain, for which the revenues of the island were pledged. After the war, if this government was In the attitude of having itself deprived Spain of its possession, Spain would prob ably lay the matter gefore the powers, and under international law it is a question whether the United States might not be held responsible for such bonds as are held by foreign governments or their citizens. For this reason careful attention is being given to the form of the resolutions to be adopt, d by congress. A consulting committee of congress, composed of leading lawyers, has been searching for precedents in international law, ami have come to the conclusion that great care must be taken to so frame the resolutions that if the President's desire to avoid the recognition of the present Cuban Republic is yielded to, this govern ment will not he put in the attitude of de priving Spain of a possession, the revenues of which have been pledged to foreign creditors of Spain. To meet this point it is proposed that the resolutions reported shall declare that Cuba is tn a state of belligerency without government, that Spain has lost her sovereignty over the island, and that the government of the United States shall in tervene for the purpose of enabling the citizens of the island to establish a stable form of government, capable of restoring and maintaining law and order. War may be “hell," but hanging on the ragged edge of war for months is no sum mer pastime, and a short stay in the lower regions is preferable to endless suffering in purgatory, says the Louisville Post. The Volunteer Troops. In the event of war it is interesting to know what disposition will be made of the state or volunteer troops. It is a matter that is at present engaging the attention of the Georgia military, in view of the tact that the troops of this state may be called to the front at any time. At present the Georgia troops, both white and colored, nuinbre about 4,500, including the naval reserves. A recent order, however, calls for 'the enlistment of more men, and the object is to increase the number of troops In this tate to about 9,000. Os this number Macon can already contribute about 250, and with the new enlistments perhaps 500. In case war is declared it is probable that the Georgia troops will be ordered to the coast at once. The idea at present is to use the greater part of the army to protect the large cities of the coast. Re quests have come from Boston, Newport, New York. Philadelphia, Charleston. Sa vannah. Brunswick and other coast cities asking for the garrisons to serve as pro tection against any threatened invasion by Spanish troops. It is likely therefore that this plan may be carried out. Mean while, the regular army will be mobilized at Cbicamauga park, ready to move to the seaport for invasion of Cuba or Porto Rico at any time. The President has decided that should it become necessary to call for volunteers he will follow the precedent set by Abraham Lincoln in 1861 and call uih>u the states to furnish their quota. In this way none of the states will be discriminated against, and at the present time he expects to get a regiment from each state; with the ex ception of Pennsylvania. New York, Ohio and Illinois, which will be required to furnish two. the cities of New York, Phil adelphia, Cincinnati and Chicago furnish ing teh extra men in addition to the state at large. The governors will be allowed to designate the state militia to be sent to the front, and these will be inspected and drafted into service as national volun teers. because, under the Constitution, the National Guard, as such, has no existence outside of the borders of the state. The manifesto of Rubens makes it very clear that it would be the height of folly for the United States to recognize a gov ernment of which the Cuban junta is the mouthpiece, sensibly remarks an exchange. April Our War Month. Did it ever occur to you that April is the war month of this Republic? Such is the ease, and the fact lends significance to the present complications between this coun try and Spain. It is a strange coincidence, and is being commented upon, that April has witnessed the beginning of all of our important struggles. It was during the month of April that the first blow was struck in the war of the revolution, and again, nearly a century later, April saw the first shot in the war between the states. Most For Least Money. Evening News ads bring the best re sults. Energetic, wide-awake merchants of Macon will tell you so. Advertising in Its columns bring the largest returns be cause it reaches more Macon people than any other Macon dally. It goes into the family circle, and reaches the women of the household as well as the men; and the fair sex do a large proportion of the buying. The News' circulation grows steadily and permanently. The News is the people's paper, and the only daily paper which can cover the city field for advertisers. Georgia is not the only state that has a gubernatorial race on its hands. Twenty six of the states of the union will elect governors this year. Those states are New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Ala bama, Colorado, Connecticut, Idaho, Kansas, Maine, Michigan, Minne sota, Nebraska, Nevada. New Hampshire, North Dakota, Oregon, Pennsylvania. Rhode Island. South Carolina, South Da kota, Tennessee, Texas, Vermont, Wiscon sin, and Wyoming. McKinley's Plan of Intervention. It must be confessed that a key is nec essary to get at the real meaning of Pres ident McKinley's plan of intervention, and JU is gratifying that an explanation has i been furnished by the Washington corres pondent of the New York Mail and Ex i preess, which paper is very Mose to the ; president and is supposed to speak with some authority. Tins paper states that the president expects war and that the outlook is that hostilitier may begin soon. The president, however, does not expect war to be declared immediately. It is his plan first to carry out his policy of inter vention, which simply embraces immediate relief to the sufferers in Cuba. It is not his intention to strike the first blow. It is the president's desire to carry out his original intention of humanitarian inter vention. It was the original intention to carry the supplies to Cuba in merchant men, manned by civilian officers and sail ors. According to the present plan, if the president's desire is carried out, vast quantities of supplies are to be carried in several of the huge merchantmen purchas ed within the last few days. These ships will be commanded by officers of the navy, and manned, in part, by sailors from ths naw. The ships will be conveyed by a large fleet. It is said that several ships from the fleet at Hampton Roads will be detached to es cort the transports. The supplies are to be taken to Mantanzas, which is the scene of the greatest misery. Accompanying the provisions will be a Jarge number of phy sicians. Surgeons and nurses, and a quan tity of medical supplies. If any attempt is made by Spain to molest this charitable expedition, bound on its errand of mercy, then upon Spain will be the consequences. The American fleet will protect the mer chantmen. The supplies will be landed at Mantanzas unedr the shelter of the Amer ican guns, and once landed will be pro taected by American sailors and soldiers. The ships of the fleet still remaining at Hampton Roads and a Key West will be quick to come to the aid of the force at Mantanzas and the war will be precipitat ed. Accompanying the ships will be the transports bringing the regular army, which is now being concentrated at Chick amauga, ready to be forwarded to Cuba in case of necessity. General Grosvenor said in the house on Thursday that “the war, if we have war, will be fought under a Republican ban ner." Had such declaration been made at the beginning of hostilities in 1861, Bull Run would have been the only battle fought. And “the war, if we have a war," and it were possible to confine it to the Republicans, Spain’s victory would be the easiest since her first conquest after the landing of Columbus. The existence of the so-called junta in New York has become a nuisance. What it wants and what it demands should cut no figure in the policy of our government, declares the Birmingham .News. Senators Billy Mason and Morgan will now paint themselves black and move on the White House, notes the Houston Post. Uncle Sam proposes gently but firmly to inform Spain which century we are living in at present, observes the Chicago Record. In addition to its large and growing subscription lists. The News’ street sales amount to about 500 every day now. Not for the insurgents, but for human ity’s sake should we intervene in Cuba. Get the war news before night by sub scribing to The News. NO RIGHT IN THE PREMISES. Americus Times Recorder: "The Macon Telegraph, in a labored editor al defending its partisan course in the gubernatorial campaign, has been guilty, inadvertently, of making one honest admission. Editor Pendleton says, and wo quote him ver batim: "The Telegraph has no direct interest in the success of failure of any candidate for any office in the Democratic primary.” The Times-Recorder has contended all along that the Macon Telegraph, because of its anti-Democratic principles, should have no voice in the Democratic nomina tion for governor of Georgia. Editor Pen dleton has at last acknowledged the right eousness of the Times-Recorder’s position. O-A. *X* O 3SX X .ZV . .j vtapk' Political Pointers Hou. W. G. Burnett has returned to Athens. There are now eighty-seven Candler Clubs iu Georgia. Captain Tip Harrison is out iu favor of General Fitzhugh Lee for president. Colonel Candler will speak Thursday at Hampton and Saturday at Fitzgerald. The news from Colquitt is that Candler is leading the race in that neck of the woods. Hon. J. L. Boynton is being urged to stand sorer-election to the legislature in Calhoun. Hou. O. N. Starr, of Gordon county, one of the most prominent members of the upper house in the last legislature, is be ing strongly urged to accept thesecrctary ship of state, to succeed Colonel Bill Clif ton. The Rome 'Commercial says: "The 'war news’ that Spencer and Bob went to the Macon Telegraph’s office on last Thursday night was not of 'the Spanish brand, ex cept that it was bushwhacking and treach erous—the boys were trying to arrange some way by which they could force the old warrior to tie to the mine bony they had assigned him. At a recent meeting held at Elberton, th* following new 'Democratic executive committee was elected to serve for the next two years: W. O. Jones, A. M. Dead wyler, AV. A. 'Moss, A. S. Lunsford. R. P. Ward, Sr., L. A Harper, W. T. Brownlee. M. H. Wyche, W, B. Adams, chairman, and Z. B. Rogers, secretary. No steps have been taken calling a primary or a massmeeting, and no delegates have been chosen. Much interest is being felt in the sena torial race in the Thirteentr district. It is Madison's time to put forward a candi date in the rotation system. One of the candidates offering for the place is like ly to meet with opposition in the other counties, though it is not known to what extent Once before a candidate was put forward by Madison, and was defeated by an Elbert man. The outcome of the race will be watched with interest. CAJSTOYII7L.

Modjexka Said to Have Gone West to Have the Sun Melt Her Money, When May Irwin recently paid $85,000 in cash for some real estate, people were surprised, for the general impression is that actors never make any money or save any. Proctor’s two fine theaters in Al bany are monuments to enterprise, for bo started out as an equilibrist. William A. Brady, the well known manager and part owner of a New York theater, started as a super in San Francis co. Bia wealth is supposed to run up into the hundred thousands. William Gillette makes no secret of his wealth. He made over $50,000 last year. Melba can draw her check for $200,000 and still would have enough left in hand not to miss It. Lillian Russell, who started her career as a singing saubrotte at Pastor’s theater, sang her way into a $75,000 house in New- York. Perhaps the greatest fortune ever made by actor or actress is invested in the estates of Adelina Patti. She is worth today over $2,000,000, and in the zenith of her career she was rated at many millions more Every cent of it was made behind the foot lights. Sarah Bernhardt has got so much money sbo never stops to count it. She used to pay Sardou more than $50,000 a year in royalties. Lily Langtry could lose $500,000 and still she would be independently rich Her English racing stables alone are worth double that amount, and she is also tho possessor of valuable ground along the Thames. Modjeska is living on a farm in Cali fornia. She is tho richest farmer in the state. Her neighbors say she went to Cali fornia to allow the hot western sun to melt her money. Jean de Reszko could lose $200,000 and enjoy a peaceful nap an hour later. His lands in Russia alone are worth twice that much. The most prosperous evening in the great tenor’s career was in this country. Be sang for 20 minutes at a Boston concert, and when the proceeds wore counted up his share figured up just SIOO a minute. Joseph Jefferson earned more than SIOO,OOO in old “Rip Van Winkle’* alone. His grounds adjoining former President Cleveland’s in Massachusetts arc worth twice that amount, and ho owns other valuable properties throughout the United States. Jefferson is probably the richest actor on the American stage today. Ev ery night he appears in public ho is paid enough to sustain an average person for more than a year.—Chicago News. Troubles of Her Own. She was a thin eld lady and climbed in to the car at Kingston with many hesitat ing turns of the head, and when her big black valise and other bundles had been piled upon tho seat in front of her she pushed back her red striped shawl and looked out of the window with an air of contentment. The train had not proceed ed many miles, however, before she began to fumblo among herbundies in a nervous sort of way and suddenly sho broke out in a most pitiful wail: “I knowed it! Laws a massa, whut will I do?’’ The passengers all looked sympathizing ly toward her. The kindly old man across the aisle went over to her and said: “My good woman, what is the trouble? Can’t wo do anything for you?” “Oh, man, I can’t bear it! Lot me off! Stop the train! Stop it quick!” The old man gave tho bollcord a vigor ous pull and tho train camo to an abrupt halt. “What’s the matter here?” asked the conductor sharply, as ho camo in from the forward car. “Why,” sobbod the old lady, “I plum forgot thet peck o’ turnips I had sacked up to take to my son John Henry in At lanta. ” —Atlanta Journal. THEOfiiS Knif E P. P. P., Lippman’s Great Remedy, Saves a Man From Becoming a Cripple. Mr. Asa A rrmons, a well -known citizen of Jacksonville, Florida, was afflicted by a terrible ulcer. Medical skill seemed unavailing in stopping the ravages of the terrible disease. The leg was swollen and intensely painful, as the ulcer had eaten its way down to the very bone. All medicines and treatments having failed to effect a cure, the doctors said the leg must come off. Just when it seemed that Mr. Ammons would become a disabled and a erippled man, he tried P. P. P., Lippman's Great Remedy, and the re sult was wonderful. P. P. P. SAV£S his leg. “ Jacksonville, Fla., July 1, 1895. — Two years ago 1 had the worst ulcer on my leg I ever saw. It had eaten down to the bone, and my Avhole leg below my knee, and my foot was swollen and inflamed. The bone was swollen and painful, and discharged a most offensive matter. My physicians said I had necrosis of the bone, and my leg would have to come off. At this stage I commenced to take P. P. P. and to bathe rny leg with hot castile soap suds. It began to improve at once and healed rapidly, and is to-day a sound and useful leg. “ I think P. P. P.. Lippman’s Great Remedy, is all a man cou’-d ask for as a blood purifier, as 1 have known it to eure so meterribie eases of blood poi soning in a remarkably short time. “ASA AMMONS.” TERRIBLE BLOOD POISON. The body covered with sores—two bottles of P. P. P. made a positive stud permanent cure. This is only one c' many thousand similar cases. Catarrh yields at once to P. P. I’. That smothered feeling at night, that heavy feeling in the day can and should be removed ; P. P. P. will do it if you only give it a chance. Indigestion and constipation go hand in hand.
