FIRST GOES OUT
IN THE MORNING
The Macon Soldiers Will
Move Another Step Awav
From Home.

GRAVES STIRS ENTHUSIASMj
In His Speech to the Boys in the As
sociation Tent Notes From
the Camp.
The First regiment of Georgia volunteers
will tomorrow leave Camp Nortben, where
they have Iwen for the past six weeks, for
Chickamauga.
Since this announcement was made in
(.imps everything Im- been in a high pitch
of excib in.-nt, and there was very little
■enthusiasm evinced at the announcement,
for though th. I. anxious to leave
Griffin, they do not want to go to Chicka
mauga.
Very little information Is given out as to
the next move of the regiment, and the
only order that was received at camps was
to have the First’ report at GMckamauga
..s early .<■ po'silde. The uncertainty of
the movement of the regiment is one thing
that the men object to, for they do not
lik. the Idea of laving at Chickamauga all
summer and then to be carried to Tampa
back through Georgia.
It is generally believed hy the officers in
duty with th. brigade that goes to Porto
duty with le brigade l.at goes to Porto
Hico, though nothing defflnite as to the
nature of the movement of the command
can b. learned. It is believed by many
that the only n.ion the -First has been or
*b I'd .iw ty from ('amp Northen is to make
room for the d’liird, which is do be or
ganized then.
All day yesterday and today the new
guns and equipment that wen- not issued
‘otn. 'time ago, were given to the men
The springfield rifle of the latest pattern
will be ti»ed, btri the men will not have
knap-aiks Tito blankets and clothing will
die made into a roll to go around the body
like th.- ('oiit. derate soldiers used.
The Fir t Is said to lie one of the best
equipped regiments in the volunteer ser
vice. and is considered by the war depart
ment of the gulf to be the best drilled and
in better shape than any in the service.
All the equipment's that the men carried to
camps with them have been packed ready
for shipping home, and nothing will be
kept tn camps except the equipments is
sued by the government.
There has been very little improvement
In the fare of the men, though they arc
better satisfied now because they have re
ceived uniforms and equipments.
When the First marches into Camp
Thomas it will present a handsome ap
pearance and will bo headed by one of the
finest military bands in the volunteer ser
vice. Special attention has been given to
the forming of the ba-nd, and it is now the
pride of the regiment.
For the past few days new men have
Ibeen pouring in from the recruiting offices
in various parts of the state, and It will
not be may days before the second call
Will be filled.
One of the most impressive scenes that
b is yet transpired at camps took place a
few nights .ago 'when John Temple Graves
uiddress. J the boys at the Y. M. C. A.
tent. lie stirred the patriotism of febe hoys
to the highest pitch with his eloquent
word ami when lie had finished a tliou
tsatid voices shouted for Colonel Lawton,
who was present. When the handsome.col
onel mounted the rostrum he could hardly
control the emotions stirred by such a
demonstration. The band played Dixie,
and tile old time rebel yell went up from
the heart of men who have already made a
solemn vow to themselves that they will
follow win rever their i-ommander leads.
K’olonel Lawton’s words to the men were
full of the true character of the man, and
did not fail to impress every man present.
Several men have been dropped from the
service on account of physical disability,
their imperfections coming out under the
hard strain to which the regiinent has been
aubjeoted for the past six weeks. The hot
weather has not prevented the long.- tire
some marches arid drills, and every day
the surgeons have had all they could do to
look after the sick. The hospital building
would not accommodate all who were too
sick to stay in company quarters, and tents
have been erected foU’them. Several cases
of measles have been reported. These will
be left in the hospital at Fort McPherson
barracks when the regiinent moves through
Atlanta.
The address of all the members of the
First will be in care of the First Georgia
Regiment, U. S. V.. Camp Thomas. But
to insure the delivery of the letters the
name of the commanding captain and col
onel should be given.

MONT DE SALES.-
Closing Exercises Thoroughly
Enjoyed by Many Peo
ple Todav.
The closing exercises at the Mount de
.Sales -Academy took place this morning,
and the excellent program attracted a very
large audience.
The program was one of the best that
has ever been offered on a like occasion at
the Academy, and was as follows:
Piano Quartet.. Persian March
Firstjff’iano—(Misses B. Partin and M.
Ryan. Second Piano—Misses R. Gewinner
and L Kelley.
Piano TrioTyrolienne Variee
Misses G. Zink, L. Newcomb and Clare

nor.
Under the circumstances it is difficult
to particularize among those who without
exception did well. In fact fit would be
manifestly unfair to everyone to whom
special mention is not accorded.
The music -was especially attractive and
the Mandolin Club’s part in the program
was, perhaps, the most attractive.
The graduates for this year are the
Misses Gertrude‘Mock and Mary Rooney.
The address hi closing the program and
the year’s work at the academy was deliv
ered by Rev. Father Brislan. As might toe
expected, it was a gem of oratory and a
delightful treat for the students.
FOREIGNERS
ON THE SCOUT.
Object :o Service and Say
They Will Not Work
or Shoot.
New York, June 16—A special to the
Tribune from Newport News says:
Those of the American line employes
aboai I line United States scout fillips Yale
and Harvard who have not deserted will
be forced to serve out their full time ac
cording to the terms of the mercantile en
listment.
Tjie 600 foreigners aboard the ships,
however, maintain that the American line
and the government is'breaking the agree
ment with them and persistently
to go to sea or if carried by force not to
discharge the duties t'hat will be expected
of them. The British and German vice
consuls have refused to interfere in- the
matter and the only course for the men is
to desert and if they do they can be ap
prehended, by officers of the law.
According to statements the American
and navy department have not violated
their agreement with the men. The crews
are laboring under t'he impression that
thc-j- will have to go into action and fight
simply because both vessels are receiving
heavy armament. Such is not the case as
the vessels wil) continue as scout ships
and the precaution now being taken is
only to insure against their being cap
tured or destroyed by the enemy without
some means of resistance.
Captain Wise explained (the necessity of
this step to- the navy department and it
was decided to accept bis suggestions. The
mep will continue in tih’e (American line
under the mercantile agreement and will
noj. hiav-e their salaries cut down to the
naval standard.
On the other hand they will have a bet
tre chance for r lives and may, by hav
ing their ships armed, succeed in earning
prize money. This has been explained to
Ohe foreigners but they cannot see it that
way and are determined to get off if they
can. t
The delegations from (the (British and
German returned to the city this morning
without meeting with any success aft(<
an interview with their consuls. .About
seventy-five men who succeeded in getting
away from the Harvard have not return
ed ami their places were filled. It is re
ported, however, that the entire crew of
the Harvard quit work and that fheir
places were immediately filled by 300 men
who had been gathered in by the officers
to meet any emergency. t »
The Germans of the crew say they will
not fight on any ship winch fires a gun.
The Harvard's guns are all aboard and she
will drop out into the river tomorrow. The.
Yale is taking on coal. The Minneapolis
is still here replenishing her bunkers.
The United States cruiser Newark, Cap
tain Barker, proceeded to Old Point,
where she cast anchor. The destination of
the cruiser is said to be Key West first
and then she will join the blockading
squadron of the coast of Cuba. Tho
Newark has been ouH of commission all
the navy for more than a year. In that
time «he has (been practically rebuilt, the
work on her costing in the neighborhood
of $250,000. Her batteries are more power
ful than those of .the cruiser San Francisco
her sister ship. It is also expected that
when she is pur to the rest she can de
velop a speed of more than 20 knots with
which she is now credited Report has it
that the Newark will be the flag ship of
the blockading squadron but Captain
Birker knows nothing of this.

JUDGE’S PRIMARY.
Meeting Will be Held Tomorrow to Make
A J rangements for It.
The executive committee meets tomor- i
row to make arrangements for the- primary
for the nomination of three '
candidates for the supreme bench of Geor
gia to be held in all but fifteen counties of
this state on the 2 3dof June, and she con
vention to nominate will be held the latter (
part of July. The fifteen counties except
ed have already voted in the primary on
the 6th of June, when they also declared
.their choice for governor.
The primary is to nominate a chief jus
tice to succeed Judge Simmons, a justice
far a full term to succeed Judge W. H.
Fish, and a justice for an unexpired term
of tw« years to succeed Judge Hal
Lewis.
Chief Jusice Simmons and Mr. Justice
Lew is are candidates for the succession
without opposition. tout Justice Fish
is opposed by Judge George F. gober. of
Cobb, now the judge of rhe Blue Ridge :
circuit.
The contest is between Judge Fish and
Judge Gober, whose strength was al
most equal in the convention of the
MACON NXWS THURSDAY EVENING, JUNE 16 1898.
years ago. ’although Judge Fish had a
comfortable majority.
Both these gentle-men are actively exert
ing themselves. Judge Fish is confining
himself largely to printer’s ink and letter
writing, but he claims that Judge Gober
is mixing with, the people and “button
holing the state.”
Both gentlemen hare been in print, and
both claim to represent the highest ele
ment in public life, and per contra, that
their respective .opponents are at the other

ment that Judge Gotoer sends out photo

orchard packing peaches, whereupon
Judge Fish remarks that the calling of the
farmer, though honorable, does not fit him
to deal with law questions.
CROSSING THE BRIDGE.
Surprising Number of Vehicles Counted in
. a Day.
An official account was taken by the
bridge keeper on the East Macon bridge’
on Saturday and Monday shows that with
in the twelve hours of Saturday 1,240 vehi
cles passed over the bridge. On Monday
the same time, 8,014 vehicles passed over
the bridge.
This compared with the count of 1894
shews a decrease but that count was taken
in the fall when there are a very much
larger number of wagons crossing the
bridge and at that time the new bridge
had not been built. In fact the count now
would go to show that the number of
vehicles coming into Macon from the east
side of the river is on the increase.
Few aeople have any idea of the num
ber of vehicles that pass over that bridge
in an hour and it' is amusing to hear the
guesses of people to whom the question
is put before they are told of the actul
figures in the count.
HIGH SCHOOL DEBATE

Two Diseases That Cause Their

Springfield, Mo.
Gentlemen : I commenced taking P.
P. P., Lippman’s Greist Remedy, last
Fall, for Erysipelas. My face was com
pletely covered with the disease ; I took
a short course of P. P. I’., and it soon
disappeared. This Spring 1 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 tome 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. w ill not be disap
pointed in its results, and I, therefore,
cheerfully recommend it.

Let the ladies of Macon and surrounding towus take notice. They will find many
things in this sale of great interest aud value to them. We are determined to clear out
