The bugle calls a.lso played an important part in the celebration that took place in Macon. The first shot from the cannon caused people who bad retired to start up from their beds, and when the second and third dame, and the bugle sounded every one believed that the Macon companies had lieen ordered out. and in a few mis ntes tile streets were crowded witli people.

Judge Emory Speer and family have re | turned from Galena, 111., where the judge delivered the oration on Grant’s birthday. He was accompanied by Mr. Marion Erwin and 'Mrs. Erwin, Mr. Proudfit and Mrs. Proudfit. Mr. ami Mrs. Erwin have remained in Chicago for some tiune. The members of the party report having had a very delightful visit and reception. The , occasion was 'the most notable in the his- The Galena Gazette of Thursday evening j kist says: 1 “An interesting little scene was enacted in the private car of Judge Speer yesteiday evening shortly 'before the fine special pulled away from Chicago wiht its distin guished load. In the presence of Mrs. Sar toris and daughter, Mrs. Speer and daugh ters, Mr. Hl. 'll. Ko'hlsaat and a few others of the noted visitors, the orator of the day was presented with a cane made from Gen eral Grant’s work bench, and probably the last of these canes to be li id, as those which were made from that famous article I of 'furniture are in possession of admi rers of the hero in various parts of the country, and are not to be obtained there from under any conditions. The gift in j question was from the Gazette and its | employes, l i;<i the presentation wis made | in a few words by the president of the | company, to which Judge Speer responded, | expressing his deep appreciation of the val uable souvenir of his visit to the historic city, and repeating his acknowledgement of tin' many courtesies received at the hands of the press and people of Galena. The cane which Judge Speer carries away to his Southern home was originally the property of Mr. J. B. Brown, a former president of the Grant Girthday Associa tion and for thirty-three years the editor and proprietor of this paper. Its presen tation to the eloquent orator was t'he hap py idea of one of Galena’s honored sons, who though engrossed 'with important du ties in connection with the publication of Chicago’s biggest daily, always finds time to do for the city of his childhood those generous things which have made ais name ■a household words in every home in old Galena. The address of Judge Speer on Wednes day afternoon far exceeded in force and splendor the most sanguine antic nations of his auditors. His fame as an orator had preceded him and the expectations of the Galena public had been raised to the very highest pitch. Those who had the pleasure ot meeting the gentleman were greatly imprisred iwith the high plane of his thoughts, the broadness of his views and the cordiality of his manner, and the hope was expressed on all sides that future cel ebrations might claim his as a participant.

HUNTER HAS REFUSED To Accept the First Lieutenancy of the Floyd Riflles—Busy Mak ing Preparations. The IMacon Volunteers do not take kind ly to the apparent slight that was put upon them in the selection of the captains from the Second regoment to go to the front. The matter is the sensation of the hour in civil as well as military circles and since the appointments were made known, has been canvassed very freely on every side. The members of the company feel that they have been slighted and they re sent it. The blame is put upon Governor Atkinson and Major Kenan in abbut equal parts. The Macon volunteers say that a large number of the company would have gone if their captain had been appointed, and htat as one of the oldest and strongest companies in the state they should have had a chance to go and their captain was entitled to. more consideration than the commanding officer of the youngest com pany in the city, and the youngest captain, both of whom were given commissions. 'Major Kenan declines to say how the thing came about except that he says that the governor did not take any action so far as the names were concerned and that he (Kenan) has done the very 'best he could. 'He was anxious for the appoint ment of Captain Hunter and would have been glad to have seen the appointment made. As a matter of fact Captain Hun ter’s name did go in with the others, but the reasons why the appointment was not made could not be given out Iby Major Ke nan. The statement comes from a very good source, however, and the truth of the mat ter is that Governor Atkinson had some thing to do with it. It would seem that Captain IHunter’s name went in with the other three who were subsequently ap pointed. It is said that the governor ob jected to the appointment of four captains from Macon and insisted that other cap tains from the Second regiment outside of Macon be given a chance to go to the front. Under this the offer was made to all of the other captains and two of them —one in Columbus and the other in 'Perry accepted. The Columbus captain, however, agrees to take the first lieutenancy under Captain W. C. Davis, of the Perry Rifles, and so left three captains to be selected. Under this the governor appointed the three captains from Macon and left out Captain Sami Hunter, of the Volunteers. It is a fact, however, that Captain Hun ter iwas offered the first lieutenancy of the Floyd Rifles, but, standing in line with his company, he declines. This offer to Captain Hunter of the First .Lieutenancy of another company did not relieve the slight that has been put upon the Volun teers, and the boys are about as mad as any set of wet hens that have been seen for some time. 'All sorts of reasons are given for the governor’s action in the matter, and it is very generally conceded that the chief ex ecutive has had it in for the Volunteers since they declined to go to Atlanta on governor’s day, and that is the way he has of getting even. At any rate the wagon boy of 'Coweta who is aspiring to be a brigadier general, has succeeded in incur ring the ill will of the members oif one of the best companies of the state. It must be borne in mind that Captain Hunter offered his services and that had he been accepted there is no question but that the necessary quota of men would have readily followed him. The work of enlisting the men had been going on rapidly’ today 'and it is now a certainty that all of the companies whose captains have been appointed will go out of .Macon in good shape so far as their strength is concerned. Major Kenan is in the city at work with the captains of his battalion and says he will have a battalion second to none and that there will be no finer set of men among the volunteers than those who march out of Macon under his command. Major Kenan ! h(as received instructions to go to Atlanta tbniorrow. He will leave tomorrow morning. When asked by’ a News reporter as to the chances for the mobilization of one of the regiments in Macon (Major Kenan said that he was unable to say anything on this subject and that Ithe information must come from Atlanta. Captain lllunter was also seen by a News reporer this morning and when asked if he would accept the appointment of first lieutenant of ithe Floyd Rifles he said: “No. sir, I will not. But I have nothing further to say on the subject.” AHI of the armories are busy scenes this morning.

It is now probable that the offer of the city’ of iMacon to the government o have some of the volunteer troops mobilized here will be accepted. The regiment that 'Will in all probability be mustered here will be the first regiment of volunteers. Major Kenan, Mayor Price and others have beer, out to look at Ocmuigee park with an eye to selecting this as the place to station the troops in case they’ arc brought here. The city offer was of Cen tral City’ park, but there are same objec tions to this as the pest house and house of detention are stationed there and it would be unsafe to locate a large number of men there to sleep in tents.

WAR ON SUNDAY, Pastors of Macon Churches Talk to Their Congrega tions on the Subject. BULLETINS IN PULPIT. News of the Victory at Manilla Was Read Out by Dr. Pinson at Mulberry Street. At Mulberry Street Methodist church last night Rev. W ,W .Pinson preached a sermon to the soldiers of Macon, and a large congregation assembled at 'the church. Dr. Pinson made some most interesting statements of statistics of wars, and said that while it was not the duty of the peo ple to criticise the action of the congress of the United States in making war upon the Spaniards, but that if war was declar ed out of a spirit of revenge that every Spaniard that was killed was murdered. But on the other hand if war was declared out of a brotherly love for the Cubans and humanity 'that the cause was most right eous one, and that t'he side of the right would triumph. Dr. Pinson spoke of the duties of the soldiers, and evidenced opposition to war on general principles. At the opening of the service 'the whole congregation joined in singing “My Coun try, ’Tis of Thee.” When the congrega tion had been dismissed Dr. Pinson asked them to be seated a minute and read a bulletin announcing the American victory at Manila. Some of the congregation could not restrain their feelings and clap ped their hands, while some one in t'he back of the church said “Praise Cod from whom all Blessings Flow’.” AT FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH. A large crowd assembled at the First Baptist church to hear Dr. White on “iAmerican Victory and What it Will Mean.” Dr. White said that he felt that America would win in the struggle for humanity’s sake, and that the cause was a just one. A victory for the Americans meant that brotherly love was above dol lars and cents, and that Americans had not forgotten their love of humanity. He predicted that the first victory would be the Americans, and soon as he finished his sermon he received a bulletin an nouncing the victory of the American tleetj at Manila and read it aloud to the con gregation. AT Y. IM. C. A. At the Young Men's Christian Associa tion yesterday afteriroon, Dr. W. A. Nel son, the imminent Baptist evangelist, made an interesting talk on “The Good Soldier.” Dr. Nelson said that he believed the cause of the United States was a just one and that we have more reason for the war now than we did for the civil or the revo lutionary war. We fought" for principle then and we are fighting for humanity’s sake now. He said 'that he believd that war should have been declared two years ago. He defined the duty of the good sol dier and compared him to the soldier of Christ. A large crow’d of listeners heard" Dr. Nelson and all were deeply impressed with W’hat he said. WHOOPING COUGH. I had a little boy who was nearly dead from an atack of whooping cough. My neighbors recommended Chanilbeflain’s Cough Remedy. I did not think that, any medicine would help him, but after giving him a few doses of that medicine I noticed an improvement, and one bottle cured him entirely. It is the best cough medicine I ever had in the house. —J. s. Moore, South Burgettstown, Pa. For sale by H. J. La mar & Sons, druggists. What is Going On in Society.
