WELCOME RAIN
BRINGS RELIEF
Everyone’is Happy and the
Crops and Country Have
Been Saved.
PLENTY MORE TO COME.
The Effect of the Rain Will be to
Rush the Fruit Crop Forward
—Vegetables Saved,
All Macon and all Georgia is happy
today. The rain has come at last. The
weather has broken and the skies are
clouded for the firsrt time in many weeks.
It is the best news that could possibly
be given out and the rain came just in
time to save the state from a calamity.
Everything will now take on new life
and the fruit men are happy. They say
►hat the lack of rain was the only thing
that stood between them and the finest
crop of peaches thait has ever been seen
in the South. Now that the moisture has
come the fruit will make quickly and by
the end of the week the shipments will
commence from Fort Valley and from
down the Macon and Dublin railroad.
The (truck gardens have suffered terribly
from the drought but the vegetables will
be saved in most places.
The coming of the rain has given every
thing a new start and now that the
weather has .broken it is reasonable to
suppose that the last of the drought has
been seen and that from now on we will
have the usual summer rains.
PATTERSON IN TROUBLE.
Serious Charge Against Him by a Chicago
Picture Company.
A warrant was sworn out yesterday be
fore United States Commissioner Erwin
for William Patterson, a well-known
white man of this city, who is chargee}
by the Chicago Portrait Company with
fraud in connection with the delivery pf
pictures enlarged by them on orders from
their agents.
Patterson was arrested on Saturday on
a telegram from Jesse Tankard an agent
of the company.
The charge is that Patterson intercepted
the mail addressed to the company at 'Ma
chen, Eatonton, Athens and other points.
That he took from the letters that he re
ceived bills of lading for the pictures
which he took from the depots and deliv
ered, making collections for them.
All this the company claims was done
without authority, as Patterson was not.
in their employ.
Patterson, however has made no effort
to avoid arrest if he has done wrong, and
the merits of the case will be brought out
tomorrow when he will be given a hear
ing before the commissioner.

The Ameer of Afghanistan.
There is nothing of that slatternly un
tidiness, combined with lavish expendi
ture, in the ameer’s establishment that
characterize s 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 brocade or sat
in. lined in winter with fur—sable, stone
marten or red foxes’ feet perhaps—and in
Bummer with the shot glace silks that
come from Bokhara. Harmonizing with
these, but seldom matching them, are his
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 off a
shawl that offended his eye because it did
not harmonize with the rest and order in
anot her, and when he chooses his handker
chiefs for the day (never less than three or
four, for he snuffs, as do most Afghans)
he mechanically, as it were, holds first
one and then another up against his coat
and if he dot's not fancy tlfc shade throws
that one down and takes up another, and
bo on until he is satisfied, talking all the
time as if he were hardly conscious of
what lx* was doing.—Pearson’s

Fully the capacity of the large

yesterday afternoon, bringing a delight
ful coolness with it.
The Wigwam now numbers among its
guests people from Macon. Atlanta, Val

A slight error'has been made in the an
nouncement of the rate on the railroads
for the Teachers’ Convention on the 28th.
It should have been stated that the rail
road rate will be only one fare for the
round trip, and not a fare and a third, as
has been printed.

Erysipelas
Two Diseases That Cause Their
Victims to Be Shunned by
Their Fellow-Man.
Spring field, Mo.
Gentlemen : I commenced taking- P.
P. P., Lippman’s 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
tlie 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 equq.L Will say, anyone who
cares to try P. P. P. will not be disap
pointed in its results, and I, therefore,
cheerfully recommend it.

your P. P. P. is the best I have ever
tried. It cannot be recommended too
highly for blood poison, etc.
Yours very truly,
W. P. HUNTER.
