What We Have to Fear.
in weighing the dangers of war the mind
of lhe average man naturally assumes that
tin' enemy's shells and bullets are of most
roii: ri|ii< ikt, whereas statieties prove that
disease is the most formidable toe that any
army has to contend against. It is shown,
by figures based on the records of the
civil war. that where forty men, to use
round numbers, are killed by bullets or die
from wounds, ninety die from disease and
about twenty-five from accident, making
the mortality about 155 to the thousand.
If ninety men out of every 1,000 died
from disease during the civil war, while,
as bloody as some of our battles were, only
forty were killed by bullets, or died from
wounds, think of the foe that awaits our
army in Cuba, independent of the Spanish
troops on the island. And think, you who
are urging haste, what an invasion of
Cuba at this time would mean.
The Union and Confederate armies were
not troubled with such a disease as yel
low fever, although smallpox existed in
both armies, yet the mortality was ninety
out of every 1,000. In Cuba our army must
contend with yellow fever and smallpox,
to say nothing of dysentery and other that
would naturally afflict unacclimated sol
diers in a tropical country during the wet
season. So there need be no surprise if
the mortality among our army of inva
sion is multiplied by two or three as com
pared with the statistics of the civil war.
In support of tills is the report of Dr.
W. F. Brunner, late inspector of the
United State; marine hospital at Havana,
showing conclusively that an invasion of
Cuba at this time will result in great dis
aster. caused by yellow fever and malarial
fevers and dysentery, which will attack
the troops.
Surgeon General Sternberg, of the United
States army, aside from his own obser
vation and experience, urges Dr. Brunner's
report as conclusive proof of the folly of
invasion at this time. Dr. Brunner shows
that the Spanish army in Cuba has never
exceded 200,000 men at any time. The
deaths from yellow fever alone in the Ha
vana military hospital ranged from thirty
two in December to 138 in July. June.
July and Vuglist wire the deadly months.
The total deaths were 2,583, The total
number of eases alone in Havana was
10.000. Tn other military hospitals out
side of Havana 6.0.21 soldiers died of yel
low fever and 30,000 were stricken with it
-about one in five of the entire Spanish
military force in Cuba.
This Joes not include hundreds of deaths
among certain troops sent buck to Spain
on the loth. 20th and 30rh of every menth
*in the last stages of the different diseases
• numerated above. Having observed these
departuias from Havana. Dr. Brunner says
he can safely say that 10 per cent of the
30.000 invalided home were destined to an
early .and positive death.
Dr. Brunn.-r believes that the mortality
rate of the Spanish army can be material
ly reduced with careful consideration of
the sihsi-'tence supplies, proper clothing,
modern amp sanitation and revaccination
against ■ mailpox: hut his statistics prove,
nev, rtheless. that as much as we may min
imize the Spanish .army in Cuba, an Inva
sion of the island is no light matter for
the reason that Spain has an ally which
can. under the most favorable conditions,
show a record of ninety to the thousand,
and during the wet season in Cuba may.
perhaps, be able to more than double this
rate- killing five or six times ag m Qf
our soldiers as will fall f rom Spanish blll .
ets or die from wounds or accident. .Dis
use is, indeed, our most formidable foe in
Cuba.

bewildering in the above statement but as

The Water Problem.
The people of Macon are again seriouslv
disturbed over their water supply, and
there is hardly an doubt of the fact that
the water we are now drinking has already
caused and will continue to cause much
sickness. There is no question as to the
act that .he situation is a serious one,
but it is difficult to attach blame to any
one tn particular. The receiver of the
Macon Gas and Wa{er r<Mnpany
with, the aid and approval of the court has
been doing all in his power to remedy
matters, and. in fact, to give Macon prac
tically a new system, and one entirely ad
equate to the demand. The work has’been
unexpectedly ami unavoidably interfered
wiith, by reason of government work tak
ing precedence in the foundaries during
the preparations for war, so that there is
nothing to do but wait.
In the meanime. however, our people
should adopt measures to purify the wafer
that is now served them, and thereby pro
tect heir health. At the risk of advertis
ing a certain line of business. The News
would strongly urge upon our people the
advisability of using only filtered water.
It is best at all times: it is especially ad
yisable now. There will be much sickness
If we continue to drink the water that is
now offered us: but by the use of a proper
filter even worse water can be made abso
lutely pore and healthful. Filter your
water, not only now but at all times—but
especially now. The health of your family
in a large measure depends on it.
The anti-Candler people are slowly but
surely coming to their senses. Even
Douglass Glessner has come to the conclu
sion that the ring” is going to be smashed
on June 6th. There is no doubt about
that. This is an honest admission and It
(ought to do Glessner good to thus purge
his mind of the hallucinations he has pre
viously entertained.
You Must Register.
There seems to be a sort of general
misunderstanding with reference to regis
tering for the coming primary to be held
on June 6th. Many people are under the
impression that because they paid their
taxes and registered prior to the last elec
tion, they are qualified to vote In the com
ing primary. This is a serious mistake
and will cause many to be disfranchised
on June Gth.
The regulations govering the June pri
mary require that you shall "have paid
your taxes and registered since January 1,
1898. Bear this in mind, and unless you
have registered since that date do so at
once, or you will not be allowed to vote on
June Gth. The law allows you until the
night of June 3d to register, but it is best
that you should attend to it at once. Hi
order to register you must go in person
to Tax Colector Jones’ office, pay all taxes
due and sign your name on the registration
book.
Remember that the registration law will
be strictly enforced in the June primary.
Remember that unless you have registered
since January Ist you will not be allowed
to vote. Remember unless you call at Tax
Collector Jones’ office on or before June
3d you 'will not be allowed to register.
Have you registered since January Ist?
if not be sure to do so on or before June
3rd, or you will be disfranchised in the
gubernatorial primary.
To Select Candler Delegates.
Notice is given elsewhere in today’s
News of a meeting to be held at the court
house next Tuesday night at 8 o'clock, to
which the friends of Hon. Allen D. Candler
are invited. The purpose of lhe meeting
is to select six delegates to represent Bibb
eounty in the coming state convention, the
delegates selected by this meeting to run
in the interests of Allen D. Candler.
While the call for the meeting is signed
by lhe President of the Candler Club it is
expressly stated that the meeting is to be
for all the friends and supporters of Col.
Candler. In other words, it is simply a
Candler meeting, and all Candler people
who wish to have a choice in selecting
Candler delegates to stand for election in
the primary on June 6th should be present.
The leaders of the Candler movement in
Bibb county have gone about the selection
of deligates in the fairest, most business
like and most 'Democratic way possible,
and it is their desire that every Candler
man in the county be present at Tuesday
night’s meeting to express his choice for
delegates.
Thorough harmony prevails in the Cand
ler ranks in Bibb. as in every other county
in the state, and the Candler people are
going in to give the Candler delegates the
largest vote ever accorded a gubernatorial
candidate in Georgia. It is safe to say that
six good men, representing every class in
the community, will be chosen next Tues
day night to represent Col. Candler in the
June primary, and it behooves every Cand
lerite in the county to be present and have
a voice in their selection.
Rob ißerner has simply made the mis
take that other brilliant young men have
made before him. He couldn’t wait. But
perhaps he will get over it, and he will
know better next time.
President Candler's Successor.
The Macon Evening News suggests the
name of Rev. Dr. Alonzo iMonk, D. D., as
a suitable man to succeed Dr. Candler as
president of Emory college. Dr. Monk is
one of the ablest ministers in the Metho
dist denomination and his selection would
no doubt give general satisfaction. —
Hawkinsville News and Dispatch.
It must surely be gratifying to the
friends of Dr. Monk and to the gentleman
him i If if they could know of the numer
ous endorsements that The News’ sugges
tion has received.
Dr. Monk is recognized wherever he is
known as a man of superlative ability; a
scholar and thinker as well as a man of
gnat executive powers. While The News
is in ilo sense seeking to create a boom for
the gentleman, a proceeding which would
be quite as distasteful to him as it would
be inappropriate, we cannot fail to observe
with pleasure the general expression of ap
proval at the mere suggestion of Dr. Monk
for president of Emory. There is a feel
ing that he would cause that splendid in
stitution to enter upon a new era of use
fulness.
•According to the Pittsburg Post, a dis
interested Democratic paper, the Quay fac
tion will have an easy time beatiinc John
.Wanamaker for the Republican guberna
torial nomination in Pennsylvania. The
convention will meet next week and it i
now figured tha Quay has 234 delegates
against 86 for Wanamaker and 18 for C
W. Stone, with only IS doubtful. Con
gressman A. Stone is Quay’s candidate.
The Brunswick Call is the latest paper
to declare Judge Atkinson “a sure win
ner.’’ Well, the Call’s candidate needs
considerable “jollying” just now; it is
going to take a lot of it to make him face
the ordeal on June 6th.
Unless your name has been placed on the#
registration books since January Ist of the
present year you will not he allowed jo
vote in the June primary. Attend to this
matter at once.
You must register before the night of
June 3rd. Last year’s registration will not
answer for the gubernatorial primary.
Register at once. Last year’s registra
tion does not qualify you for participation
in the June primary.
Go to Tax Collector Jones’ office and
register at once. June 3rd is the last clay.

At a certain east end Sunday school
some time ago the teacher talked to the in
fant class upon the evils connected with
strong drink. The little tots of 4 and 5
listened attentively to a long tirade against
the rum demon. Finally the teacher cried:
‘ ‘ M ine is a mocker!”
The children pricked up their ears at
the teacher’s vehemence.
"Mine is a mocker!” she cried again,
like one of the prophets of eld.
The children looked very grave indeed.
Mine is a mocker!” cried the teacher
for the thiixl time, and then she turned
and wrote the sentence in big letters on
the blackboard.
“Now, children.” she exclaimed as she
whirled around, "I want you to tell me
what wine is.”
The little ones looked about vacantly.
‘‘Mine is a mocker!” cried the teacher.
“Now, what is wine, first little boy?”
The first little tx.y looked thoughtful.
“Wine—is—a—marker,” he drawled.
“No, no,” saiil the teacher. “Next lit
tle boy.”
Tke next, little boy looked still more
thoughtful.
"Wine—is—a—market,” he ventured.
“No, no,” fidgeted the teacher. “Next
little boy.”
The third little boy smiled. He was a
self confident little boy.
"Wine—is—a—monkey,” he bravely
announced.
And then the teacher gave it up.—

WHOOPINC COUGH.
I had a little boy who was nearly dead
from an attack of whooping cough. My
neighbors recomended Chamberlain’s
Cough Remedy. I did not think any medi
cine would help him, but after giving him
a few doses of that remedy I noticed an
improvement and one bottle cured him en
tirely. It is the best cough medicine I
ever had in the house.—J. L. Moore, Sou uh

Vitality of the Wild Gookc.
Farmer H. N. Clement of Lowell, Lake
eounty, Ind., was gunning in the Kanka
kee marsh. He came upon a flock of wild
geese and bagged several of them, one of
which astonished him by having as a
breastpin an arrow 9 inches long. That
goose btx-ame the wonder of the neighbor
hood and the study of scientists, the only
conclusion reached being that wherever
the wild bird came from there it got the
arrow, so unique in formation that it could
Ik: assigned to no tribe of Indians in the
United States or any other known coun
try. Finally Professor O. T. Mason of the
National museum said the bird and arrow
could have come from no other place on
the globe than the Yukon valley, for ex
cept in that region no such arrows arc
made. Science does not pretend to say how
long the goose had carried the arrow of a
Yukon tribesman until it met its death
from the shot of a civilized gunner down
on an Indiana marsh. The bird disdained
the weapon of a savage, but turned its
legs up to the marksmanship of the Hoo
sier farmer years afterward and thousands
of miles from its summer home in arctic
desolation as it was journeying south
ward. —Cincinnati Enquirer.
- Hope.
“Hope is a line thing,” said Mr. Stay
bolt, “sure. We’d he a pretty miserable
lot, most of us, without it. And a man
can get along very comfortably for quite a
spell on nothing else, without doing a
blessed thing but hope that things will
come his way. But while hope makes a
bright light it doesn’t give out very much
heat; it a man wants that, he must dig for
it. It isalortumde thing for a manto

who mines i he most digging with his hope

Many soldiers now feel the effects of the
hard service they endured during the war.
Mr. George S. Anderson, of Rossville, York
county, Penn., who saw the hardest kind
of service at the front, is now frequently
troubled with rheumatism. “I had a severe
attack lately,” he says, “and procured a
bottle of Chamberlain's Pain Balm. It did
so much good that I would like to know
what, you would charge me for one dozen
bottles.” Mr. Anderson wanted it both for

The Ameer of Afghanistan.
There is nothing of that slatternly un
tidiness, combined with lavish expendi
turv, in the umivr’s establishment that
characterizes the residences of Indian
princes. Except on state occasions, when
| he dresses in a sort of European uniform.
' he wears a long, loose coat made of some
; lovely pale colored French hr. g-ade or sat
' in, lined in winter with fur—sable, stone
i marten or red foxes’ feet perhaps—and in
' summer with the shot glace silks that
come from Bokhara. Iliu nionizing with
these, but seldom matching them, are ids
skullcap and handkerchief, the whole
making a charming mass of color with his
couch, which is draped in the most elab
orate style and is constantly being altered.
In summer it is generally covered with
silks and satins, and in winter with cash
mere shawls, furs, etc., and has a, velvet
valance bordered with a massive gold
fringe.
I have constantly seen him throw oil a
shawl that offended his eye because it did
not harmonize with the resf and order in
another, and when he chooses his handker
chiefs for tlie day (never less tliaa three or
four, for lie snuffs, as do most Afghans)
he mechanically, as it were, holds first
one and then another up against his coat,
and if ho does not fancy the shade throws
that one down and takes up another, and
so ou until he is satislied, talking all the
time as if he were hinxlly conscious of
what be wqjs doing.—Pearson’s Magazine.

Two Diseases That Cause Their
Victims to Be Shunned by
Their Fellow-Man.
Springfiei.ii, Mo.
Gentlemen : I commenced taking P.
P. P., Lippman's Great Remedy, last
Fall, for Erysipelas. My face was com
pletely covered with the disease ; 1 took
a short course of P. P. P., and it soon
disappeared. ’Phis Spring 1 became
much debilitated and again took an
other course, ami I am now in good
condition. I consider P. P. P. one of
the best blood preparations ou the
market, and for those who need a gen
eral tonic to build up the syslem and
improve the appetite I consider that it
has no equal, Will say, anyone who
cares to try P. P. P. will not be disap
pointed in its results, and I, therefore,
cheerfully recommend it.

sore healed at once. I think 1 have
taken almost, every medicine recom
mended for scrofula ami catarrh, and
your P. P. P. is the best I have evet
tried. It cannot be recommended too
highly for blood poison, etc.
Yours very truly,
