ALL ABOUT
THE NEW BONDS
If You Intend to Bid for the
New Government Secu
rities Here’s
INFORMATION Os VALUE.
Many Maconites Have Already Sub
mitted Bids-Believed that the
People Will Get Entire Issue,
Even in people are busying them-
M )v< Willi th- nt w government bond
issue, and .. gr* it many -Macon people are
inv< ■ting their money in these securities.
Then- is mm h discussion of the subject
on tn,, street-, especially among the bro
k.rs and bankers, and this discussion
turn on the -ize of the over subscription,
the premium which the new bonds are
likely to ommand ami the chances of
(.mall -übscribcr.s, under the popular fea
ture of the plan of issue, obtaining the
whole or the larger part of the entire
amount-
Evidently, however, a great many Ma
con people hope to get some of the new
bond:, for it i aid that financiers and
financial institution of Macon will sub
scribe at lea t :|a'.tio,ooo to the > new govern
ment loan Mr. adv a hall’million dol
lars’ worth of bids have been made for
Mie 3 i» r cent, bonds at par.
There are quite a number of individuals
•who have -ub . tilled in sums of $5,000 and
$10,0(10. The largest subscriber or bidder
In M i on i the Xmerican National bank,
which bid- for $250,000 of the 'bonds.
Another financial institution expects to
make a bid for 1200,000.
Tin Exchange bank has forward, d a bid
for faO.OOO.
Among other bidders are Mr. William
Holomon, $15,000 and Mr. J. W. Cab
aniss. SIO,OOO. Several other gentlemen
me known to have submitted bids aggre
gating $75,000.
Thr< < ymlii at' have already made ap
plication for i he entire amount <fr any part
of It. Individual subscriptions of banks
and capitalist ranging from Che hundreds
of thou iml to tens of millions will make
an imposing iggi< gate. But the real point
i. the strong probability that the major
pail, if not the whole $200,000,000, will be
,i;> orlxd by of SSOO or less un
der the provisions of the treasury circular,
which giv. - -m H small subscribers a pre
ference am! an assurance of obtaining the
amounts they subscribe for. 'lt is just
posibb that we 'hall see, says a finana-
I'ltil aulhority, 100,000 people all over t'he
United States subscribing for an average
<ii |soo upeiee before the first of July,
which would take the loan In full and
leave nothing for the syndicates, theibanks,
and the other large subscribers, to say
nothing of the foreigners, who are likely
to be lift out altogether. The success of
the popular feature is rendered more prob
;ibli by the fact that the new bonds arc
already quoted at a premium. At any
rate the r< nit of the war loan is likely to
give not only the world at large,but our
own people, a very concrete idea of their
r< sourc< < and financial power.
St >.M ICT I Nt! ABOUT BONDS.
Hero is some information about bonds
that will prove of interest even to those
who can't participatin'in the buying. This
inform ition is given in a neatly printed
pamphlet received in (Macon by Mr. George
H J’lant, who has allowed tile News to
make extracts therefrom:
'A coupon bond is payable to t'he bearer.
It may lie bought ami sold without for
mality as freely as any kind of property
and without indorsements of any kind.
Owing to the freedom of transfer coupon
bonds are usually preferred by persons
who expect to hold them but for a short
time. Their disadvantage for the person
who wishes to make a permanent invest
ment lies in the danger that they might
be lost or stolen, in which ease the loss
to the owner would be as complete as the
loss of a bank note. The •oupon bonds take
their mime from the method by which in
terest is collected by the holder.
Printed on the same sheet with the
(bonds is ,i series of coupons or small cer
titlcateis of interest due, which are so de
signed that one is cut oft’ at each interest
■period. Each coupon bears the number of
the bond and shows the date of the cou
pon’s maturity. The holder of a coupon
bond, at each interest period, detaches the
coupon due that day and collects it. The
■coupons are payable at any sub-treasury,
and may be collected through any bank,
and will usually be accepted by any mer
chant having a bank account, with whom
the holder of the bond has dealings. The
bolder of a coupon bond may at any time
have it converted into a registered bond
tree of eh ar re.
A registered bond is payable to the order
of the owner, and can only be transferred
by being properly endorsed and assigned
by the owner. Such assignment is made
by the owner filling in the blank form on
the back of the bond, and must be wit
nessed by some officer authorized by the
regulations of the treasury department to
■witness assignments. The owner of a reg
istered bond who wishes to part with it
writes his name on the back of rtte bond
in tlie presence of the officer, then the wit
nessing officer writes his name in the
proper place and affixes an impression of
his official seal.
The officer® who are authorized to wit
ness asignments are a United States judge.
United States district attorney, clerk of a
United States court, collector of customs,
collector or assessor of internal revenue,
■United States treasurer or assistant treas
urer, or the president or cashier'of a na
tional bank, or if in a foreign country, a
United States minister or consul. In cases
where there is no officer within a reason
able distance, or when, through sickness
or for some other good reason, rhe owner
of r< gistered bonds cannot go before one
of these officers, the treasury department
will designate some iperson near the owner
to act as witness.
When the owner of a registered bond
disposes of it and has properly assigned it,
be delivers it to the new owner, who
should at onee forward it to the Register
of the treasury sot; transfer on the books
of the department. The Register cancels
the bond so forwarded and issues a new
bond in rhe name of the new owner, and
semis it to him by registered mail. The
department makes no charge for trans
ferring bonds.
If tiie owiki of a registered bond loses
it or has it stolen from him, he should
at once notify the secretary of the treas
ury. A stoppage will be entered against
the bond, and if it should be presented for
transfer, the department will hold pos
session of the bond until the ownership is
clearly established. If a lost or stolen bond
is not recovered within six months, the
department will issue a duplicate bond

loan. The books of the four per cent, loan i
of 1907 are closed for the whole month I
preceding the payment of a quarter ■ tn- I

closed for fifteen days preceding the inter- •
cwt payment. During this period no trans- i
fers are made, and the time is devoted to
preparing schedules" which contain th. .
names of owners, the amount of bonds
each one holds, and the amount of inter
esH due each one. When these schedules
have been prepared and proved, thev are
sent to the treasurer of the United States,
who immediately has checks and envelopes j
addressed, and in due time each cheek Is
mailed to the address of its owner. The
checks for the more distant points are
flrji mailed. Interest checks are obliga
tions of the United States, and, of course,
are good anywhere.

HOW TO SUBSCRIBE FOR THE NEW
BONDS.
The war loan which is now being offered
will be sold to subscribers at par during
tha period of subscription, which ends
July 14. 1898. The method of subscription
has been made as simple as possible.

WITH THE CROWD
ATINDIANSPRINGS
This Famous Resort is More
Popular Than Ever
This Year.
NEW MANAGEMENT
Has Caught the Public’s I Attention
and the Famous Wigwam is Do
ing a Land Office Business,
The crowds that went up to JnJkia
Spring Saturday brought to mind the
palmiest days of that most popular resort.*
It is already evident that the popularity
of Indian Spring is being revived at a rap
id rate. It cannot be denied that toe pop
ularity of the delightful resort waned for
a year or two, but it has taken on new
life this year, and seems destined to eclipse
all of its former records.
The new management of the famous
Wigwam seems to be the cause of all this
renewed interest in Indian Spring. Mr. T.
C. Parker, the new lessee of the Wigwam,
has infused some of his proverbial spirit
into the thing, and it is moving forward
like everything else that Thad Parker
touches. Mr. Parker showed his wisdom
at the outset by placing 'Mr. C. E. Hooper
in charge of the Wigwam as manager.
Hooper is as popular a fellow as ever liv
ed, and as good a hotel man as ever made
others live. Hooper is a wonder when it
conies to making every-.iculy enjoy them
selves. But he doesn’t rely entirely upon
the sunshine of his presence, as so many
hotel managers do; he gives you some
thing to eat and furnishes you with all
the various comforts and forms of enter
tainment that go to make Life at a sum
mer resort hotel blissful .in the extreme.
Yesterday, for instance, he gave his
guests a dinner that would do credit to any
hotel in the country. Nor is it a once-a
week thing with him. He doesn’t run the
Wigwam on the feast and famine principle
—feasts on Sunday and starve the balance
of the week. It is an everyday thing at
the Wigwam. The numerous guests who
are now there, many of whom are old pa
trons of the place, declare most emphati
cally that no such table was ever set at
the Wigwam before. The menu yesterday
was as follows:
THE WIGWAiM, INDIAN SPRING, GA.
DINNER.
Okra and Tomato Consomme Italienne
Olives, Sliced Tomatoes, Pickles, Onions.
(Saled Almonffs.
Baked Lake Trout, Sauce Madeira.

Spunge Pudding, Cream Sauce,

Vanilla Ice Cream, Assorted Fancy Cake
Fruit, Nuts, Raisins,
Watermelon.
'Cheese, Crackers,
Coffee.
Not only is the table away ahead of what
the average summer resort can boast, but
every arrangement has been made for en
tertaining the guests. Yesterday, for in
stance, there was a sacred concert by the
Wigwam orchestra. The orchestra is one
of the finest musical organizations to be
found at any resort in the country. It is
composed of entirely high class artists.
Miss Francis Hughes, harpist, of Chica
go, was for three years with the famous
Schubert Quartet, and has played in al
most every state of the Union. She is a
pupil of the great harpist Schnecker, and
■is undoubtedly the best lady harpist in
America. She Is the principal musical at
traction at the Wigwam.
Mr. G. Rawson Wade has charge of the
music and besides playing the piano with
the orchestra, sings during the regular
concerts.
He was formerly solo bass ■with the cel
ebrated English organist. Frederick Arch
er in the !St. .Tames church, Chicago, and
has for several years been director of the
Schubert Quartet. Previous to coming to
this country he had already gained a fine
reputation in England as a concent and
oratorio singer. Having decided to locate
in Atlanta, he was appointed organist and
choir master of the church of the Sacred
■Heart in that city, and at the request of
his friend, Mr. C. E. Hooper, took charge
of the music at the Wigwam for the sea
son.
Mr. Samuel Koengsberg Is a violinist of
note, coming from Germany to this coun
try, he toured England on his way here,
and has been conected with all the prin
cipal orchestras in New York and Boston,
and of late years has been acknowledged
orchestra leader and violinist of Denver,
Col.
Mr. Harry Miller, solo cornetist, of
Chicago, also has a fine reputation as an
orchestra player, and ha stoured with the
great companies of the country for a num
ber of years. He plays with great purity
of tone and is on artist who never fails to
please.
Altogether the musical portion of the
entertainment at the 'Wigwam deserves the
reputation it has already gained of being
the best in the South.
Below is the excellent program render
ed yesterday:

It is gratifying to note the renewed in
terest in Indian Spring, for nothing is of
greater value to a city than a popular re
sort so near by.
Under the new management the Wig
wam deserves to be, and. no doubt, will
be packed with 'Macon and other Georgia
people throughout the summer.
BATTLE OF MANILA
As Reported by Those Who Took a P art
In It.
Washington, June 20—Secretary Long
received a call today from Dr. Kinala
berger, assistant surgeon of the Olympia,

■Evans, of cruiser Boston, both of whom

phases of the battle. (He afterward talked
with a representative of the (Associated

On the night before the battle the of
ficers remained awake while the men slept
beside the guns. The spirit of the crew
were high they were eager for the con
test. There was no apprehension, except
in crossing over tlv entrance to Manila
bay, for the fate of the (Maine had aroused
a dread lest the Spaniards had planted
mines and torpedos at tne entrance. The
Olympia, with the admiral aboard, took
*the lead through the sunken danger and
when this was cleared there iwas keen
eagerness to begin fighting. Shortly 5
o’clock, daylight disclosed the Spanish
ships eight miles off. The American sail
ors watched the hurry and confusion on
board the Spanish ships as they prepared
to defend themselves. They were practi
cally helpless, as the fires were banked,
and beyond clearing the deck for action
and getting the men to quarters they could
not be moved. (Meantime the Olympia, led
the way and the (American ships were in
line for battle for the first broadside.

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 thO
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.

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
(pur P. P. P. is the best I have ever
ried. 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
ease, both in men and women.
Rheumatism, which makes man’s life
a hell upon earth, can be relieved at
once by P. P. P., Lippman’s Great Rem
edy. It makes a PERMANENT cure.
P. P. P. is the great and only remedy
for advanced cases of catarrh. Stop
page of the nostrils and difficulty in
breathing when lying down, P. P. P.
relieves at onee.
P. P. P. cures blood poisoning in all
its various stages, old ulcers, sores and
kidney complaints.
