Good looks are really more than skin deep, depending entirely on a healthy con dition of all the vital organs. If the liver is inactive, you have a bilious look; if your stomach is disordered, you have a dyspeptic look; if your kidneys are af fected. you have a pinched look. Secure good health, and you will surely have good looks. "Electric Bitters" is a good Altera tive and Tonic. Acts directly on the stom ach. liver and kidneys, purities the blood, cures pimples, blotches and boils, and gives a good complexion. Every bottle guaranteed. Sold at H. J.

Bears the The Kind You Have Always Bought CITY OF MACON ARRIVED TODAY And is Now Unloading Her Cargo at HL LEA'IE MIDI If the Cargo Can Be Unloaded in Time—Another Boat to Be Built, The steamer City of Macon owned and operated by the Macon Navigation Com pany. has arrived on her sixth trip from Brunswick. The boat came in early this morning and is now unloading her cargo at the foot of Seventh street. The boat is the pride of the city, having been built here and being run by a home company. The boat was somewhat behind on the return trip this time as the water has been very low for some weeks past and it was necessary for the boat to lie up at Hawkinsville for over two weeks. Jfcr GEORGE A. SMITH, President iMacon Navigation Company. The boat, when the river has plenty ►’ water, generally makes the trip from 'Ma con to Brunswick and return in about ten days. This is a splendid schedule for a river steamer to make, especially in a river, which is full of snags and sand bars. The steamer goes into Brunswick and lands and takes on her cargo at the Mal lory Line dock. The steamer had on board this trip the largest cargo which has ever been brought into Macon. Lack of space prevents our I JRlB' I « i THE STEAMER (CITY OF MACON, Owned and operated by the Macon Navigation Company, publishing the manifest, which would show exactly what was brought. The steamer will start on her return trip tomorrow if the cargo can be unloaded today. It is expected by the managers of the line that a larger cargo will be brought back on the next trip. The officers and directors of the Macon Navigation Company are: George A. Smith, president; A. Block, first vice president; F L. Mallary, second vice president: I. B. English, C. B. Adams. G. C. Johnson, A. B. Small, N. B. Corbin and George A. SniPh, directors. The officers and directors are thi iking s'-ongly of building another boat and put ting it on the line. This would mean ; much to Macon, as it would mike the i freight rates to the city much cheaper and i it would probably induce the railroads to j give cheaper freight rates. It is expected that the boat will leave j on its return trip tomorrow and arrive in I Brunswick Friday. The cut of the boat which we publish today is an excellent picture of it and the ' readers of The News may get a splendid j idea of what Macon’s boat is like. South Macon Dots Mr. and (Mrs. J. W. Ellis with their ehil- 1 dren and grand children held a family reunion from 6 to 12 o’clock p. m. Satur day, at their beautiful home on Jeff Davis street, in honor of their son, Sergeant John Ellis, who came down from Chickea- i mauga on Saturday morning on a short visit. Sergeant Ellis will leave for Chick- ' camauga tonight and will kindly convey j letters from fathers, mothers, sisters, bro- ' there and friends of the 'Macon boys in j camp, as well as kisses from their sweet- . hearts if delivered to him this evening either at his home or on the train prior : to its departure from the city. Mrs. Kate Avant, wife of R. Avant, had a severe attack of sickness yesterday morning at her home in Newburg, near South Macon. Misses Lena and Maude Avant returned Saturday from quite a pleasant vi«it to the family of Rev. A. S. Avant, at Deep step, near Sandersville, Ga. The Rev. Sam Gove, of Titusville, Fla., who has been visiting his daughter, Mrs. E. N. Atwood on Jeff Davis street, is spending a few days visiting relatives and friends in Twiggs county, his old home. The recent rain's have damaged the side walk leading from Jeff Davis street to the South Macon school house considerably. ' This should receive immediate attention, i It is understood that Mr. Paschal will commence the work of cutting down “Wings’ hill and repairing Telfair street about the middle of this week.

The grading preparatory to laying a spur track from the Central’s tracks at Milledgeville to the asylum is about com pleted, and the laying of the half mile of track will begin. at once. Fifty-six pound rails, taken up from the main line, will be used in this work. The work of laj ing Wi-potjnd steel rails between Ma con and Ailahta, and Columbus and Birm ingham, is also being rapidly pushed. Fifty five hundred tons were ordered for this work. About one hundred tons are laid to the mile. V ice President Egan and Superintendent Kline are still in the fruit region. During June the Baltimore and Ohio railroad handled almost 10,000 troops in their movement to camps. They were car ried in detachments of from fifty to 500. showing that the regiments are rapidly being filled with the required number. During the past week the road' handled about 1.000 recruits from New York and points along the line as far West as Chi cago to Camp Alger and to Chickamauga. The Southern Railway Company has let the contract for the erection of a magnifi cent depot at Greensboro. N. C. The new structure will be 50 by 160 feet, - three stories in height. Stone and hydraulic pressed brick will be the principal mate rials used in the building, with white enamel terracotta trimmings. It is to be ready for occupancy by the Ist of January next. It is announced that the salaries of all the engineers and firemen on the North ern Pacific Railroad are to be advanced at least 15 per cent, commencing this month. It- is also reported that conductors are to receive an increase in wages. For the -first time in at least ten years oom modify rates on merchandise from points in Ontario to export points in the United States, especially New York, Phil adelphia and Baltimore, will be advanced on the 11th instant. Both the Canadian Pacific and the Grand Trunk Line joined with American lines in the increase. Six classes of commodities are affected to the extent of 10 per cent. The commissioner of internal revenue has decided that railroad companies mak ing a change for excess of baggage of pas sengers shall be required to affix a one cent stamp to bills of lading covering such excess in the same manner as express companies are required to stamp their bills of lading. Will the passenger or the railroad pay the tax? Before the revised trans-continental freight rates had been in effect a week, a big Western line offered to carry a ship ment of pianos and orgeans to the Pacific coast at a cut of $1.16 per 100 pounds. This Is but one more evidence of the worthless ness of rate agreements. Mr. J. P. Williams leaves today for Bainbridge to inspect the Georgia Pine Railroad, of which he is president.

Over Two Hundred Guests Were There Yes terday. MANY MACON PEOPLE At Indian Springs this Summer- Wigwam’s Most Successful Season. Macon is well represented this summer at the various resorts all over the coun try, but the majority of her citizens who summer away from home do not gobeyond ■the bounds of this state. As usual In dian Springs is among the most pre-- ferred resorts, and on account of its near ness and the pleasantness attached to 'the comforting attention paid to guests by ■Manager Hooper at the .Wigwam, to say nothing of the elegant bill of fare which appeals to the appetite of .the most aes thete individual, this elegant hotel is now entertaining a large number of guests, whom may be found Mrs. R. P. Brooks, who is accompanied by Miss Katherine Wood, of Atlanta. Mrs. -Brooks possesses a cheerful disposition, which is attested by the large number of friends she has made during her sojourn here. Mrs. R. H. Smith and family, iMrs. C. B. Willingham and family and Mrs. H. C. Kendall are among the latest refugees to this cooling, health-giving resort. Sunday there was a large gathering of visitors at the Wiwam, over 200 people partaking of the elegant dinner which' was served.

THOUSAND RIFLES DAILY. Made and Delivered to the American Army ana Navy. Washing-ton, D. C., July 9 —There has been a good deal said lately of the terrible effect of the Mauser rifle, but if the truth is known it not a bit more destructive than the new rifle the American army uses and not so fine a weapon as the new navy small arm. While firing a smaller bullet than the American gun, it has not the same flat trajectory, and, therefore, is not as accurate. The navy gun can. shoot farther and swifter, and can more surely hit the target. It is an unfortunate state of affairs that with the army are two, and perhaps three, different calibers of rifle®, and that such a thing as interchangeable ammunition Is not possible. If the sailors and marines were landed there -would be another va riety of small -arm added to the forces, the cartridges of which would not fit the bore of any other gun. The regulars -are armed throughout with the new army gun of 30-oallber, a weapon that is conceded to be the best in the world. With each piece is a bayonet which answers the purpose of a carving knife, a trowel for throwing up embankments, and running through a soldier as well. Many of the volunteers have the Rem ; in-gton gun, of about 45-ealiber and of far less range and shooting effectiveness than the modern gun. This piece is less effec tive than the Mauser, but still is an ad mirable gun for its range. Differences between the ordnance ex perts of the army and navy lead to this condition of affairs. It may not prove se rious, but still opens up the possibility at all times of ammunition for one type of gun falling short, while another may have an abundant supply. When the two services considered the small arm question no efforts were made to induce the army and navy to adopt the same type of gun. The army gun was ac cepted and put In service about two years before the navy determined on its weapon. At present rifles are being m-anufacteured for the army at the rate of 1,000 a day; and deliveries are made to unequipped regiments as fast as the rifles are received from the factories. These guns are all of the 45-caliber, and millions of rounds of ammunition are being turned out to supply them. The army experts have not the slightest fear regarding the equipment of the forces under General Shafter, and speak of the Remington rifle as being almost equal to the modern guns. This rifle, they say, in the hands of trained soldiers and expert marksmen is equal to the Mauser. C A. 8 T O H. I A. . Bean the Kind You Hare Always Bought Grammarians Spoil the Language. Is the new century now so close upon us to see a revolt against the grammarians and orthographers? There are some Indi cations of it. Here is M. Anatole France, for instance, a master of the French lan guage and an academician to boot, who declares boldly that what we want is lib erty —the liberty of spelling as we choose. A hundred years ago who thought ct spelling in a particular way? It was a sort, of go as you please, and the classic works of every country in Europe abound in sellings which, if they were perpetrat ed by the candidate at an examination of any sort, would inevitably result in his being plucked. Evon those great epistolary writers, Mme. du Deffont and Mme. de Sevigne, are full of what would be considered now adays as solecisms in the way of spelling. M. Francisque Sarcey, the critic, comes to the aid of M. France and declares that the grammarians have spoiled the language. Language is constantly in a transition state, yet the grammarians confine it within their narrow rules, and thus pro nunciation and spelling get to differ more and more. In competitive examinations, says M. Sarcey, spelling should be ignor ed, and only gross errors in syntax should be visited by bud marks.—London Daily News. A Wartime Tragedy. He was an unsuccessful war author and he had been vainly trying to induce the bank officials to consent to the renewal of his 90 day note, and when he reached home he was sad and low spirited, but he found this little memorandum under his plate: “John, please attend to these items at once: “The gas bill is $6.80. “The coal bill is $9.60. “Please give the servants $lO apiece. “Pay the butcher SBO. “The groceryman must have S4O. “We owe sll for milk and butter. “If my new dress comes while you are home, pay the boy $lB. “I believe that is all for the present. At least i don’t think of anything more just now. “P. S.—Put $lO under the red hand kerchief box on my bureau tor me.” He went over the above items carefully and prayerfully, and when he hud fully mastered them ho penned these lines: “Molly—l have gone to enlist in the ar my.
