The icounty commisioners met this
morning and took under consideration the
request of the. Board of Education for the
appropriation for the coming year.
The following members of the finance
committee Os 't'he Board of Education ap
peared before the coniniissioners:
Judge W. H. Felton, A. L. Miller, Ben
L. Jones, T. C. Dempsey, Washington
Dessau and D. ,M. Gugel.
The committee asked an appropriation
of $52,600.00 and urged the granting of

They stated that the needs of the board
were on the increase and that they would
require that, amount to properly carry out
the work of the Board of Education during
the coming year.
After 'the committee had retired the
•county commissioners diseased the matter
for some time,'but he final result was that
they determined not to increase the ap

SHOOTS UNDER WATER.
Inventor Gallagher Believes He Has Solved
the Problem.)
Savannah, June I.—'For-sevcral days ex
periments have been in progress at Tybee
with a gun t'hat shoots under water.
Heretofore It has ■been claimed that it was
absolutely impossible to discharge a can
non or any other weapon in which gun
powder is used under water, the result of
such an attempt being t'he bursting of the
weapon used.
i.Mr. Harry G.aila'ger of this city believes
he has surmounted all the obstacles in the
way and will soon have an invention that
meets all needs so far as the successful
discharge of projectiles under water is
concerned.
Mr. Callager has been working on this
invention ever since the war broke out.
His idea is that with’ such a weapon as he
has in view a she'll can be thrown against
the unarmored part of an ironclad below
tile water line and the vessel rapidly sunk.
He has progressed far enough in his expe
riments to believe that success is assured.
Heavy cannon balls have been thrown a
distance of nearly 200 feet under water by
his invention and when it is perfected ho
expects to lie able to send destructive
bombs many times that distance. The ex
periments at Tybee have been made with a
small cannon placed on the beach ready to
fire. When the cannon was completely
submerged a lanyard reaching to the shore
was puled and the canon discharged. Af
ter the tide had gone down the projectile
was hunted up and the distance it had
gone under water measured. A system of
valves prevent t'he water from entering
the gun after the discharge. The experi
ments will be continued until the inven
tion is perfected. The attention of the
government will be drawn to it iif what is
hoped for is achieved.
“A boat like the Katahdin. which is ex
pected to ram a vessel of the enemy, could
be armed with one of these guns below the
•water line,” said Mr. Gallager, in discuss
ing his invention. "It could be aimed and
fired by the officer on deck by electricity.
The projectile, loaded with gun cotton or
other high explosive, striking the enemy’s
ship below the water line would do such
damage as to sink it in a short time.
This would accomplish what is desired
without subjecting the Katahdin to the
great dangers encountered in ramming.
I believe the plans I have worked out will
do the work at long range when they are
fuly perfected.”

GROWERS FIGHT
FOR THEIR LIVES
Central’s Contract With the
Armour Regrigerating
People is Attacked.
SM IT CANNOT STAND
The Meeting Held Yesterday in Ma-
I con Was a Decided Success-
Old Officers Elected.
The fruit growers adjourned yesterday
evening and most of 'them have gone home.
The result of the meeting yesterday was
eminently satisfactory to those who have
the interest of all of the growers of the
state at heart and the effect on the gross
income of the growers from the crop of
peaches this year will be very great.
President Cunningham of the National
Fruit Growers’ Union says thac he thinks
that the saving to the growers as a result
of this meeting will be very great.
One of the chief things done at ths meet
ing yesterday afternoon, was ths probable
breaking up of an arrangement made by
the Central Railroad with the Armour Re
frigerating Company.
It seems that the Central had made an
arrangement and a contract with the re
frigerating company by which the latter
secured the exclusive right to run its cars
over the Central. The fruit growers say
that as a result of this the price for the
use of the cars was put up from fifteen to
twenty dolars a car.
At a meeting yesterday afternoon a
committee was appointed to look into the
matter of refrigeration, and the report of
that committee will be interesting read
ing to the growers throughout the state.
The report says that the Central having
made an exclusiive co^ntract with the
armour refrigerating company such action
is considered against the best interests of
the growers and urges that competition
on this kind be encouraged by the growers.
The result of this will be that the Conti
nental Refrigerating Company, which of
fers to do the business tor less money, will
be given a share of the business, and the
Central will be called upon to listen to the
protest of the growers in that they will be
! offered the cars of the Continental people,
and if they refuse to haul them they will
be called upon to pay the difference be
tween the prices charged by the two com
panies.
The report of the committee recom
mends that the growers of the state Union
of growers pledge themselves individual’y
to pay their share of the expenses incur
red in fighting the carrying out of this con
tract.
Railroad rates came in for a share of the
attention of the growers at the meeting
yesterday. A committee was appointed
for the purpose of securing a conference
W’ith the railroad people with a view to
| securing a reduction of the rates which
are considered entirely too high.
The meeting yesterday was thoroughly
representative of the fruit growers of the
state. Only two of the principal sections
' were not represened. Marshallville it not
taking any interest, it would seem so far in
the action of the union. (And Cuthbert,
which has been discouraged by the pres
ence of scale was also without represen
tation in the meeting.
President Cunningham says, however,
that he hopes to get 'both these places rep
resented and goes down to Cuthbert today
to arouse interest in the movement to se
cure the sale of the fruit at the shipping
point for cash or at the centers in the
auction markets.
President Cunningham say that he be
lieves that there will be comparatively lit
tle fruit sent to the commission men this
year, and some of the representatives of the
east 'who are here share that opinion and
are making their arrangements to buy the
fruit here.
The old officers of the state association
were re-elected. IMr. Dudley Hughes, of
Danville, on the Macon and Dublin Rail
road, is the president of the state associa
tion, and by virtue of that office is vice
president from this state of the National
Union, with headquarters in Chicago.
'President Cunningham and others who
know what they are talking about, and
•who have made a practical test, of the
shipment of fruit on the old plan to the
commission men, say that if that plan is
followed this year, it means the death of
the industry practically in this state. They
say that if this crop is not made’ a finan
cial success, and that success can only be
achieved by the plan outlined by them—
the sale of the fruit at home 'for cash or
through the authorized agents of the union
—the growers will be discouraged and the
orchards will be abandoned. On the con
trary If the crop Is a- financial success the
interest, in the business will steadily in
crease and Georgia will be the banner
peach state of the union.

RANDALL’S BAR
Will Probably be Closed by Council After In
vestigation.
The 'principal feature of the very short
meeting of the city council last night was
a resolution introduced by lAlderman C. D.
Pearson recalling the terrible tragedy on
the preceding Tuesday night in which
James Kershaw was killed in Randall’s
bar. In view of the fact that Kershaw was
a minor and that he was found drinking
in the bar the resolution provided that
Randall be summoned before the recorder
and that the matter be investigated and if
it was found that he sold to minors he be
deprived of his license.
William Prichard, H. E. Prichard and
J. iE. iFlynn asked for the right of way to
run telephone wires through the streets of
Macon for a telephone line from Dublin to
Macon. The petition was referred to the
committee on streets.
In view of the fact that the other tele
phone company is compelled to run its
wires under ground it is not known what
action the committee can take in the mat
ter as there is an ordinance covering this.
It is thought that this is a connection of
the long distance telophonc from Savannah
to 'Macon.
The Southern railway has determined
not to comply with the request of the city
to put down a sidewalk on its property on
Ocmulgee street and it is to be presumed
that that settles it.
The sidewalk was ordered laid down but
the railroad does not want to comply and
thinks that that should be enough.
•But the city will look into the matter
and will probably ask the railroad again
to do its duty and to comply with orders
as a citizen should or failing that the city
will put down the sidewalk for the rail
road and charge it up.
Aiderman Meyer took occasion to draw
the attention of the city council to the
color of the water and the matter was re
ferred to the proper committee who will
bring in a report next week. ,
By that time the water will be cleared.
The time taken up by the meeting was
about twenty minutes.
IN THE RAILROAD WORLD.
Matters of Interest in Macon and Else
where.
The earnings of the Central of Georgia
Railroad during the third week in May
were $75,55, against $77,220 for the same
week last year. The total earnings since
January 1 were $1,987,414, against $1,943,-
771 for the same period in 1897.
The earnings the Georgia and 'Ala
bama for the third week in ’May were
$22,159, an increase of $3,658 over the cor
responding week in 1897. The earnings
from last July 1 to May 23 were $1,102,403,
an Increase of $182,801 over the corres
ponding months the previous year.
A Kansas paper explains why a locomo
tive is like a woman, and is called “she:”
“They wear a jacket, an apron, have shoes,
hose, and drag a train behind them; they
have a lap. need guides, ride wheels, will
not turn out for pedestrians, sometimes
foam and refuse to work; they attract the
men, sometimes act very contrary, and it
always takes a man to manage them.”
The proposition to join the federation of
the various railway labor organizations
was considered by the Brotherhood of Lo
comotive 'Engineers at the biennial meet
ing in St. Louis 'Monday night, and, after
a lengthy and animated discussion, was
defeated, the vote standing 265 for to 290
against. The question of federation in
some form has come before every biennial
meeting of the engineers for the past ten
years, but it has been strenuously opposed
by the older and more conservative mem
bers of the brotherhood, and each time it
has met with defeat, only to come up
again at the next meeting.
The Pennsylvania railroad, which had
planned to spend $10,000,600 in improve
ments this year, will, it is stated, bold the
work in check until the war is over. A
director of the company is quoted as fol
lows in the Philadelphia Press: "Ail work,
unless it is absolutely necessary, has been
stopped, and nothing will be done as long |
as the uncertaintj' prevails. We had plan
ned to spend $10,006,000, and most of it
would have been used this year if there i
had been no war. We do not know how .
long it will last, and it would be foolish i
for us to lay out a large sum of money :
when the affairs of the nation are in such I
a state.” •

GRADUATING EXERCISES
Finished the Program—Nothing
Now to be Done But Pack Up
and Go Home.
The entertainment given last night by
Miss Blayde’s elocution class was pro
nounced by all present one of the most
enjoyable occasions of Wesleyan College
commencement. Miss Blaydes is such an
accomplished and cultured teacher in her
line that naught but excellence is ever ex
pected in her pupils, and their recitations
last evening gave evidence of careful and
skilled training. The program as pub
lished in yesterday’s News, was brilliantly
executed, and the audience felt themselves
indebted to Miss Blaydes and her pupils
for an evening of pleasure.
The closing exercises of Wesleyan com
mencement took place this morning in the
college chapel, and were witnessed by the
largest audience of commencement. The
young ladies of the senior class were at
tired in white organdy gowns, and marched
into the chapel, followed by the faculty
and board of trustees. The following pro
gram was well rendered:

The essays by the four young ladies who
read were of a remarkably high order and
did great credit both to themselves and to
their teacher, Mrs. John B. Cobb, whose
ability is too well known to need com
mendation. Miss Lucy Evans of Atlanta,
held close attention of the audience and
delighted everyone with her essay on Wo
men on School Boards. The men in thp
audience seemed as much pleased with the
essay as did the women, and Miss Evans
was frequently applauded. Miss Eloise
Pickett, who received the first honor in
the class, delivered <a short, but beautiful
diplomas were then conferred by Dr. Ham

art reception and saw her splendid work..
Diplomas in music were awarded to Miss
Attie Moore, of Macon, and to Miss C-aro
lie Scruggs, of Fort Valley. Miss Ida Lil
lian Crittenden received a Music Certifi

The majority of Macon people will learn
with regret that Professor Newman will
no longer be a member of the musical
faculty of Wesleyan College. He has ever
been faithful to his duty and is so identi
fied with the collgge that he will be great
ly missed.
Miss Glover received honorable mention
for excellence in the academic depart
ment.
The Fall term of Wesleyan College opens
Wednesday, September 14th, 1898. So far
no further changes in the sac 'ty have
been made Hown by the trustees, and it
is supposed that it will remain as it is. .
The board of trustees yesterday elected
Rev. William E. Mumford agent for ifes
leyan College. Rev. Mumford is at prteent
agent for the South Georgia Conference
Orphans Home, which is established in
this city, and will no doubt do effectual
work for the college.
Discovered by a Woman.
Another great discovery has been made
and that, too, by a lady in this country.
"Disease fastened its clutches upon her
and for seven years he withstood its se
verest tests, but her vital organs were
undermined and her death seemed immi
nent. For three months she coughed in
cessantly and could not sleep. She finally
discovered away to recovers’ by purchas
ing of us a bottle of Dr. King’s New Dis
covery for Consumption, and was so much
relieved on taking the first dose that she
slept all night and with two bottles has
been absolutely cured. Her name is Mrs.
Luther Lutz.” Thus writes Mr. W. C.

RYSIPELAS
Two Diseases That Cause Their
Victims to Be Shunned by
Their Fellow-Man.
Springfield, 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 ; I took
a short course of P. P. P., and it soon
disappeared. This Spring I became
much debilitated and again took an
other course, and I am now in good
condition. I consider P. P. P. one of
the best blood preparations on the
market, and for those who need a gen
eral tonic to build up the system 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,
ARTHUR WOOD,
Springfield, Mo.

and without fail,
Springfield, Mo.
Gentlemen: Last .June I had a
Scrofulous sore which broke out on my
ankle. It grew rapidly, and soon ex
tended from my ankle to my knee. I
got one bottle of your P. P. P., Lipp
man’s Great Remedy, and was agree
ably surprised at the result. The entire
sore healed at once. I think I have
taken almost every medicine recom
mended for scrofula and catarrh,,and
your P. P. P. is the best 1 have ever
tried. It cannot be recommended too
highly for blood poison, etc.
Yours very truly,
W. P. HUNTER.
P. P. P. cures all blood and skin dis
