Judge Speer Appoints Him

AN IMPORTANT POSITION
Other Referees Will be Appointed
Later-Some of the Duties of
the Office.
According to the act passed by Congress
establishing the office of referee under
the bankruptcy bill, Judge Speer yester
day appointed Mr. Alexander Proudfit as
referee.
The following is a copy of the order:
In the District Court of the United (states
for the Southern Distniot of Georgia.
Ordered by the Court.
That Alexander Proudfit, Esq., of said
district be and he is hereby appointed a
referee in bankruptcy conformably to the
provisions of ■chapter 5 of <ihe act congress
approved July Ist, ItsttS, entitled an act to
establish a uniform system of bankruptcy
throughout the United States with all the
powers duties, obligations and responsi
bilities, confessed or required toy said
statue.
ordered further that the limits of the
district ui said refree by this order ap
pointed shall until further order of tne
court include the counties of Pike. Upson,
( rawford, Houston, IBiibb, Monroe, Jones,
Jasper, Putnam, .Hancock, Baldwin, Butts.
In the staite of Georgia.
July 18th, 1898.
Emory Speer, Judge.
The duties of a referee are very impor
tant as they will have to examine all
schedules of property and lists of creditors
filed by bankrupts; to declare dividends;
to furnish information concerning esitates
in process of administration before them;
to transmit all records to the clerks of
courts and other duties which are too nu
merous to menition.
The pay of 'the referee is $lO for every
ease which the referee has before him.
Merchants are discussing the following
phase of the new bankruptcy law:
A debtor may be hrown into involuntary
bankruptcy on the petition oif three of his
creditors. This, in ease there are itwelive
or more creditors. This shall be followed
by a finding by the referee that the debtor
is a bankrupt.
In such proceedings the attorney for the
petitioning creditors shall be allowed a
reasonable fee out of the funds of the es
tate.
Attorneys discussing the law state that
an assignment under 'the state law is a
declaration that the assignor is unaible to
pay his debts as they mature—not neces
sarily a condition of insolvency. Hence,
if it be disclosed that this assignor has
not sufficient assets to pay his debts in
full, the matter may be removed from the
Insolvency Court to the Bankruptcy Court.
It is presumed that the business of these
courts will lie divided as follows:
New Bankruptcy Court for insolvents.
Insolvency Court for premises tempo
rarily disabled.

DOG WATCHES—LONG WATCHES.
Explanation of Manner in Which Jack Tars
Tell Time on Board Ship.
It is easier to tell the time by ships bells
than from a watch face. The day on ship
board is divided into eight watches, the
ship being guarded during each 24 hours
by eight sets of men. Os course each sail
or must serve for more than one watch,
but this arbitrary division of time always
holds good.
Four of these eight watches are each
four hours long, and the other two are
two hours long. The shorter watches are
called the dog watch atid the others the
■long watches.
Beginning at noon or at midnight, the
first watch is a long watch, lasting from
12 to 4 o’clock. Then come the two dog
watches, from 4 to 6 and 6 to S o’clock. At
8 o’clock the second long watch begins,
lasting till 12 and completing the 12 hours.
The same order of watches is repeated dur
ing the following 12 hours.
Each of these watches is a separate di
vision of time, or, as it were, a day in
itself. One commences to count the time
over again at the beginning of each watch.
The time is divided into hours and half
hours, there being no smaller divisions.
Each of the long watches is. therefore, di
vided up into eight divisions of time,
marking the hours and half hours. The
dog watches have but four divisions,
marking the hours and half hours cover
ing the two hours. Now when the watch
begins, say at twelve o’clock, eight bells
are rung; at 12:30 it is one bell, and at 1
o’clock two bells, and at 2 four bells, at
2:30 five bells, and so on until 4 o’clock is
reached, when it is again eight bells.
During the dog watches, of course, only
from one to four bells are struck. When,
however, the long watch of the day comes
at 8 o’clock it is again eight bells, at 8:30
one bell, at 9 two bells, at 9:30 three bells
and so on. This is again repeated during
the next 12 hours. Tt is. of course, ne
cessary for a person rtsed to the ordinary
prosaic watch face to have some practice
to be able to translate the number of bells
quickly, but the trick, once learned, be
comes easy and natural.

Some of the most expensive as well a-3

A dainty grenadine gown of rose pink
wrought with black silk dots over a drop

white, is made with a hip yoke of jjndu-
I'ated form, to which is shirred a wide
flounce that continues straight and full up

the yoke at the top. An apron front is
outlined by three graduated ruffles of coral
satin ribbon that follows the curves of the
yoke, while the yoke itself is bordered
with three similar narrower frills. An
other cluster of frillings edges the flounce

ALL COONS
LOOKED ALIKE.
Incident at Chickamauga 1 old
by an Officer of the
Third.
The Camp Price minstrels proved a,
great success last night. About three hun
dred people were in attendance and a nice
sum was .taken in for 'Company A.
Several of the best men were in the
guard house last night and it was impos
sible for the m to appear on the stage.
The succcess of Lhe performance is
greatly due to the efforts of Mr. Cuarles
Roltaire, who has been hard at work for
the past two weeks and he deserves a
great deal of credit for his work.
Mr. Roltaire will probably enlist with
Company A, as he became very much at
tached to the company and the men would
all bate to see him leave.
Camp Price is the most popular place in
Macon at present and great crowds go to
the park every afternoon to watch the
drills.
The 'hour fpr the regimental drill r.as
been changed and is now from 5 to 6
o’clock p. m. This change is-very accept
able to the men, as they will not suffer so
much from heat.
The drill every afternoon is watched by
many hundreds of people.
The bugle corys now have their buglee
and are progressing rapidly under the in
structio’n of Mr. Billingslea, who volun
leered his services to Col. Ray to instruct
the bugle corps.
Many funny things happen at camp and
countrymen who visit the camp are often
made to furnish fun for the .regiment.
Two soldiers were in the city yesterday
and were passing in front of Isaacs res
taurant. They spied a small pile of
feathers which had been blown out from
where a fine chicken (formed the piece de
resistance of the dally menu. The t"o
passed on, but one of them, who noticed
the feathers, could not resist tihe tempta
tion and turning back said:
“Wait a moment, I want to get one ot
those feathers to take down to the camp.
“What for?" inquired the other.
“Whv,” said the other, “I want to put it
under my blanket to see bow it feels to
sleep on feathers once more.
And with that he placed the leather
carefully and tenderly in his pocket and
pased on in search of other adventures.
Some bright things are said and done
in camp and everybody seems to enjoy

ALDERMEN
WERE SCARCE
So Council Was Constrained
to Do But Little at Its
Meeting.
Only seven members were present at
council meeting yesterday afternoon and
no business could be transacted which re
quired the payment or appropriation of
money. The charter requires that eight
members should be present in order that
any money should be paid out.
Aidermen Gibson, Winship, Goodwyn
and Wilder were absent.
The arnival assiciation asked the coun
cil for an oppropriation of SI,OOO to help
defray the expenses of the carnival. The
matter was referred to the committee on
finance.
A large number of petitions were pre
sented. but a very few were of any inter
est.
The board of health sent in a communi
cation from Ida Davis, a negro woman who
wanted $9 for clothing which she said was
stolen from her house when she had small
pox and was In the pest house. The com
munication stated that the woman’s house
had been left vacant and had been fu
migated and that when the woman was in
the pest house the- houses had been broken
into and $9 worth of clothing stolen. The
communication was referred to the finance
committee.
The finance committee reported that it
had reconsidered its former action in not
allowing pay for extra work during
small pox epidemic and would now

a still narrower group as around the lower

is given by bands of black velvet ribbon
which cross the front diagonally, passing

recommend that extra money be paid. The
report was adopted.
The committee reported adversely the
petition of J. A. Randall, which asked for
a return of part of the money paid out by
him for a bar room license.
The amendment offered by the ordi
nance committee to make the license for
the sg]e of lubricating oils SSO was
adopted.
A communication was read from Mr.
Arthur (Bradley of the Warren-Scharf As
phalt Company which stated that though
the Southern Asphalt Company had bid
cents per yard cheaper than his com
pany, his company should have the con
tract on the ground that the Southern
Company was unreliable. His communica
tion stated that the affidavits made by
the Southern Asphalt Company regarding
the merits of its work were false and that
he hail affidavits to prove that they were
The communication also gave the names
of a number of places where the South
ern .Company had to repair their work in
a year’s time. It was referred to the com
mittee on finance.
A motion was made and carried to al
low Mr. Horne, representing the Southedh
Asphalt Company to have a copy of the
resolutions.
The meeting was then adjourned. Mr.
Horne stated after the meeting that he
had been trying to keep the matter down
for some time for the benefit of the city,
but that the other company had taken ad
vantage of him,
■He said that the other company would
get enough before this matter was finished.
Beats the Klondyke.
Mr. A. G. Thomas, of Marysville, Texas,
has found a more valuable discovery than
has yet been made In the Klondyke. For
years he suffered untold agony from con
sumption, accompanied by hemorrhages;
and was absolutely cured by Dr. King’s
New Discovery for Consumption, Coughs
and Colds. He declares that gold is of lit
tle value in comparison with this mar
vellous ere—would have it, even if it cost
a hundred dollars a bottle. Asthma, Bron

are positively cured by Dr. King’s New
Discovery for Consumption. Trial bottles

Hints on Passing Muster.
Many of those engaged in recruiting
regiments believe that the strict physical
examination required by the government
for the first call for volunteers will bo
made more flexible for the 75,000 men in
cluded ip the second call.
However, if the medical examination is
rigidly enforced it will be well for officers
to remember the experience of a sergeant
of the Eighth regiment, mustered in at
Mount Gretna With the line officers he
took great pride in the company and ex
pected it would be mustered in entire.
Every man volunteered, but two were
thrown out in the medical examination.
One was two pounds under weight and
the other was one iuch too short. ”If I
had known beforehand,” said the sergeant,
’ I would have filled one man up with two
pounds or beef and had the other man
measured in the morning, because every
man is taller in the morning than at
night. ” —Philadelphia Record.
A Startling Ilorsebark Feat.
Berlin is wild over the marvelous feat
of Fedora Vona, a woman circus rider,
v, ho has performed repeatedly perhaps the
must startling equestrian act ever seen.
Her feat is Io compel her spirited horse
to leap over a carriage containing four
persons besides the driver. A a none of
these people had warning of her reckless
intention it is needless to say that they
were badly shocked—not to say somewhat
frightened—by the lady’s sudden ap
proach, the swift swish of her whip, the
gleaming eyes of her wildly excited steed
and finally the rustle of her long riding
habit over their heads.
After the performance was over, how
ever, and they found themselves none the
worse for their experience they were rather
inclined tn brag about it, and so the story
got out.
