No, it h not true that the Georgia troops have mutinied, nor is it likely that they will ever do so, but ii is enough to discour age ihe volunteer militia of this state to lie completely disorganized and juggliff with as Governor Atkinson has done. 'to begin with, he was prompt to put himself hi the role oi Great-l-Am, and < ven before war had been dcelart d, serve,! natice that he would Lake advantage ol his nominal position as commander in chief to lead Georgia’s troops to the front and try to make a little political capital out of the affair with .Spain. Next tie called a meeting of command ers, and when ‘they met in Atlanta yes terday he sprung his vul-and-dricd plans on them. Military courtesy and gentle manly instinct, of course, prevented any serious objection on their part, so Gover nor Atkinson is tu be allot Veil to have it all his own way. And this is his way; He proposes lo lake a very small part of the stale militia am! to raise the re maining m. n neeesHary lo complete Geor gia’s ipioto, l,y enlisting raw recruits. Thus Georgia s efforts tocreaie a comp*-- lent and will drilled body of militia art to go far naught. lie said that it would be impossible to take any of the regiments etui.-* , and that he could not afford to show partiality when all wanted to go. lie showed the rohtmanders that all of them could not go to war, and be argued earnestly l tint tile state should maintain a large loree for domestic defense. t he situation was one whe.v none of the commanders could force himself out as a leader of the volunteers, and they finally agreed to the governor’s plan to recruit the major ixtrtlon or the state • quota from raw men, and not from the regularly or ganized state militia. Thus he completely ignores the oldest and most oxeprlenced commanders of the state, and completely reverses the regu lar order or things. In this and oilwr ways Governor Atkin son has even brought the state militia under his sway, to he used 'by him as a mere puppet for the furtherance of his own political or personal ends. No, the Georgia troops will not mutiny, Ibul Governor Atkinson’s high-handed in terference is enough do cause the last one of them to resign at once. Not only re sign. tint refuse to ro-enllst until Georgia lias a governor in \jhom they can have confidence and for whom they can have respect. The cabinet has decided that under the treaty .ill Spanish citizens have one year in which to leave the country, and there fore no further proclamation is needed. In Wicked Augusta. ‘ln \ low of the fact that a delegation from the Macon council were the guests of the city of Augusta this week, Chief ot Police George M. Hood caused to be issued an edict warning these and other visiting strangers to beware of pickpockets and oonlldence men, with which Augusta is infested. Realizing that the Macon aldermen and others who might visit Augusta this week nil* unused to the wavs of large ami sinful cities, Chief Hood thought it best to issue the following timely warning: “During the week of Merry-Making,” says the chief, ”1 would earnestly call your intention to the fact that among the vis itors will be a class uninvited; 1 allude to the ’crooks,’ In every description, from the pick- pocket, the safe-blower, the man with the shells, to the confidence man, will he in the city trying in every possi ble way to rob you." Then he tells the Macon visitors and others to beware of crowded places and adds: 1 would, therefore, caution you to not cany about your person more valuables or money than is necessary for the trip.” It is understood that the chief’s warning had rho desired effect, and the Macon del egation, up to the ti.rye of going to press, had their money, jewelry and other valua bles intact. km all of which they have the Augusta chief to thank. It is not often that a Ma conite strays over into a sinful city like Augusta, and when he does he is liable to be off ‘his guard, for he is unused to the wicked ways of sucTi cities. The Augusta Chut S warning, therefore, was both time ly and kind. n has enabled the Macon delegation to run the gauntlet of Yugusta thieves and shell workers, and this is no ordinary achievement. Indeed, it is some th.ng to be proud of. When a man can spend a day or two in Augusta without losing his watch or paying tribute to the shell worker, he has accomplished some thing out of the ordinary. Especially is this a signal achievement when Augusta make, merry. When Augusta is merriest she is most sinful. She revels in the shell game and kindred sports, and delights in ‘Wickedness. Rut *he has a chief of po lice who would not have the innocent stranger within her gates fleeced bovond the limit. He feels that the hotels' and mint shops can do all the fleecing that is necessary, hence his warning against the other callings. it is probable that when the Maron del egation return home they will vote Chief Hood a resolution of thanks. —— *_ Governor Atkinson’s plan, in a nutshell, vince he has brought the Georgia militia under his thumb, seems to be to reduce all Evans men to ranks and commission all of his own political heelers and favor ites. Evidently there are no depths of political chicanery to which William Yates Atkinson does not aspire. At any rate, Georgia is prepared to fur nish her full quota of colonels. What This Day Teaches I ~ There is a significance in this day for of us who would apply it to present condition*. Today the South mourns again for her dead In every city and village,of the Southland the wives, sons and daugh ters of our dead heroes will pay tribute to the soldiers of the Lost Cause. It is but natural, on such an occasion, that mem ories of the past should arise. Not to en gend* r bitterness ami not to.disturb the feeling of loyalty which now, happily, pos sesses our people; but that must, for all that, impress us with the fearful meaning of war. „ Not that war, with all its hardships and dangers and its horrible tragedies, should deter us in the performance of our duty as eitize&s; but that it should warn us to be prudent and patiAit. \1 «* see its meaning in the demonstra tion that is taking place i-n this city today, ft means more graves for Rose Hill It means mere flowers on Memorial Hay. !* means, perhaps, fewr r participants in ini sacred demonstration n* xt year an I the yeai af’* r and throughout tin v, irs to come. It means more blighted homes. It •mans that other wives must be widowed, ither rbildrrn orphaned. It mean- r.*noi making shrouds, ft mean* more sorrow, mom so riti.e* more hard* hip- It is, therefrit, an cntcriri * not to be lightly entered upon. The ksion of the day should impress upon every young man the responsibilities of the occasion. It should teach him not only the duty he owes to his country, but the duty which he-owes to wife, mother, brothers, sisters. It should make him conservative, though none .the less brave and patriotic for being so. It should inspire him with that moral courage which when he is asked “Do you want to go to war,” would answer “No;” but when asked, "Would you go to war,” woul you answer “Yes.” And in such a spirit should he weigh the responsibilities of the hour. Go if he is needed, but wait until tie is needed. The South mourns today for enough of her ains. She can find scarce flowers enough to place ujion their graves*. Shp can ill ifford do spare more of her brave young men. And flowers will be not more plenti ful in the years to come than now. She has not yet recovered from the blighting effects of her former struggle for right and justice. The paps then made in her ranks have not yet been filled by mother generation of young Southerners when these, too, are. asked to sacrifice themselves—for Cuba. If they must they must, anil they will; hut they will have i use enough to wait until they must —if they read aright the lessons of this day. The Climate of Cuba. Here arc a few facts from the Encyclo pedia Rrltannica that are of considerable interest and value just at this . time, in view of the discussion concerning the cli mate of Cuba, and its probable effect upon >ur troops in ease of an invasion; Situated within and near the border of the northern tropical zone, the climate of the low eoastlands of Cuba is that of the orrid zone, but the higher interior of the island enjoys a more temperate atmos phere. lAs in other lands on the border of he tropics, the year is divided between the rotter and wetter season, corresponding to he northern declination of the sun,and i cooler and drier period. The months rom.ithe beginning of May to October are •ailed the tvet season, though rain falls very month of the year. With May, spring re gins in the island, rain and thunder are ilmost of daily occurrence, and the tem icrature rises high with daily variation, file period from November to April is call 'd the dry season by contrast. On a mean .f seven yearß. the rainfall at Havana in he wet season has been observed to be :7.8 inches, of the dry months 12.7, or 10.5 for the year. A.t Havana in the warmest months, those of July and August, the average tempera ture is 82 degrees Farenheit, fluctuating between a maximum of ,80 and a minimum >f 70 degrees; in the bolder months of De ■emWer and January the thermometer ivffrages 72 degrees, the maximum being 'B. the minimum 58; the mean of seven /ears is 77 degrees. iDut the interior, at ■levations of over ,'!00 feet above the sea, he thermometer occasionally falls to the feezing point in winter, heavy frost is not uncommon, and eluting north winds thin ee may form, though snow is unknown in »ny part of the island. The prevailing wind is the easterly trade ireeze, hut from November to February -00 l north winds (los nortes, “northers”) arely lasting more than forty-eight hours, ire experienced in the western portion of the island, to which they add a third sea -onal change. From 10 to 12 o’clock are the hottest hours of the day. After noon a refreshing breeze (la virazon) sets in from the sea. Hurricanes may occur from \ugust to October, hut are loss frequent than in Jamaica or Hayti, ami sometimes ive or six years may pass without such a dorm. Slight shocks of earthquakes are *ceasion-ally felt. There are no diseases specially indigenous to the island; the yel low fever, which breaks out with renewed virulanee regularly with the wet season n the eoastlands and seaports of Cuba mnunlly causing great loss of life, is quite unknown in the interior. The Mobile Register says: “When we see these brave young soldiers preparing to invade Cuba we feel excessive pity for them, knowing what they must expect from the ‘climate.’ That climate is but another name for the deadly water of the country. If the United States would send 'pure water along with them to drink they ‘ould defy the climate.” Will council do what is right to-night, or will it stick to what is wrong?

VALE MEN Will Fight Spaniards as an Artillery Com pany. New Haven, Conn., April ?fi—Fifty Yale undergraduates have decided to form a company to go to the war. They sent this message to an official of the war depart ment in Washington: “Where is the hardest, most exacting and dangerous work at the front to be found ?” They received this answer: “With an artillery company, which has heavy guns to move, which has to seize bridges and take fortifications in advance. This re quires ithe greatest skill in military science." The A'aie men have decided to form an artillery company. Many of them are in the scientific department, and are skilled engineers. Free Pills.

CASTOXIIA, flio fee- /) POWDER Absolutely Pure The Khedivia Mother. Thokhodivia mother, who is also known as Princess Kin in ah, is a woman of rare Ik auty —a complexion in which tho rose and the lily blend is enhsnood by her brilliant black eyes and in.ir, while tho faultless contour of her exquisitely serene countenance comports admirably with tho majestic figure of a woman who is indeed every inch a queen. One cannot realize that this youthful woman is tho mother of the sedate khedive H r charming sis ter-in-law, the Princess Fotmah, whose guest I was, is equally youthful In appear ance, and ono would never suspect her to be the mother of two married offspring, the eldest (>f whom is fully :h> years old. This sunny natureri woman seems to carry the spring of perpetual girlhood in her heart, a wealth ol golden hair crowns her regally poised head, the energy of ovor llovriug vitality dominates her every ac tion, but her wonderful eyes hold one spellbound by their ever changing depths, which my most critical scrutiny never en abled mo to fathom, nor can 1 now de scribe their color, whether bluo, black or brown. -The rare beauty of these Indies may be a hereditary trait from their Caucasian ancestry, of which they manifest as great prido as does the European regarding his Saxon origin, ami I had indisputable evi dence that their brilliancy of complexion was duo only to nato.ro and the bath, not to cosmetics, of which, however, the orient has no deficiency.—Humanitarian. A Telephone In Hod. Ono of the most ingenious applications of tho telephone is tho portable form, which is known as tho portable hospital telephone. Its particular use is to enable people in a sickroom in which an infec tious disease is being nursed to communi cate with tho people in tho rest of tho house. In hospitals this simple adaptation of tho telephone to the requirements of the situation will bo found invaluable, but an even greater field lor its utility will be tho private house. Tho irksomenossof having some of the infectious diseases in a mild form is multiplied tenfold by the enforced seclusion of the patient, who is suddenly cut off from intercourse with the rest of the family. Now by the mere addition of this littlo Instrument to the furniture of tho apartment it is possible for a sick per son to keep up a conversation with any member of tho rest of the family, and in this way the tedium which is inseparable from the compulsory isolation may be re lieved. Furthermore, tho nurse will by its moans bo saved a good many journeys, oven in noninfectious cases, for sho can ask for things to be brought to her at odd times which in the ordinary courso she would have to go for or at least ring a bell and have some ono come to tho door to ask what she required.—Telephone. mum READY Every expectant mother has a trying ordeal to face.
