WILL SOON HAVE
THAT BUREAU.
Congressman Bartlett in Re
ceipt of a Letter from
Chief Moore.
WITHIN A FEW MONTHS
He Says that the Bureau Will be
Put. In—Will be Great Bene
fit to the People
The new weather bureau will be estab
lished in Macon very shortly.
The prospect is that it will be ready for
business early in the fall and that the peo
ple of 'Macon and the farmers of Middle
Georgia will be the beneficiaries of an in
stitution that has (been ibadly needed here
for a lon-g time.
The effect of the bureau will be felt
throughout this whole section and it 'Will
be the means no doubt of saving many
thousands of dollars to the farmers.
•Congressman Bartlett has been -unre
mitting in his work looking to the estab
lishment ctf this weather bureau. Together
with Senator Bacon he secured the passage
of the bill providing for this station f|’
which together with fourteen others an
appropriation was passed and was made
available on July Ist of this year.
Immediately after his return from
Washington, Congress man Bartlett wrote
to Chief Moor, of the iweather bureau at
Washington asking for ir.formatipn and
urging the early esbabishment of the
bureau here.
In reply he has received the folloving:
United States of Agriculture, of
Chief of Weather Bureau,
Washington, D. C., July 19, 1898.
Hon. Charles L. Bartlett, M. C., Macon,
Ga.
My Dear Sir: In repl}' to your letter of
July 16th, 1898, I have the honor to infoftm
you that Macon, Georgia, is one of the
fifteen new weather bureau stations pro
vided for in the act appropriating funds
for the maintenance of the department of
agriculture and the weather bureau for the
present fiscal year. I cannot say just when
the station at Macon will be established,
but action to the end will (be taken as soon
as practicable; certainly within a few
months. Very truly young,
Willis L. Moore,
Chief of Bureau.

The Tyson Line Completed
and Ready for Business.
From the Savannah .Morning News:
The Tyson long distance telephone be
tween Savannah and (Maicon is completed
and the company is prepared t’o take care
of all business. The exchange is at No.
418 Broughton street, west, a few doors
from where It was originally located at
Broughton and West Broad
The complexion of this line is the result
of a year’s work. It was constructed by
degrees, the small towns in the vicinity of
Swainsboro and Statesiboro being first con
nected, after which wires were extended
in other directions. During this time the
company did a profitable business between
the places connected, the patronage in
creasing as other towns were added. When
Macon and Savannah were joined, there
fore. the company had already established
a pretty good business al'ong its line.
President Tyson said yesterday that
messages can be sent either iby conversing
or sending them written to the evchange,
the same as a telegram, to be transmitted
by the operator. The rate for written
messages .will be 1 cent a word, while con
versations will be changed for at the rate
of 25 cents for five minutes. Os the two
methods, however, President Tyson thinks
the written messages preferable for sev
eral reasons. In the first place, it is prob
able one desiring to talk would be delayed
anywhere from fifteen to thirty minutes,
waiting for the 'wire to be disengaged. If
this inconvenience does not arise, it is
possible some time will be required to find
the party with whom it is desired to con
verse at any jvoint.
Quick service will be given patrons de
siring written messages transmitted. The
exchange will have a Bell telephone by
which a messenger may be called at any
time. iAs soon as it is transmitted to /the
point desired, the operator there will have
it delivered, get a reply and transmit it to
the original sender.
It is expected a large business will soon
be established, as the company has about
100 telephones. Among some of the towns
reached in the trade territory Os Savannah
are Bloc.ni iwg’d ale. Meldrim, Blitchton,

AT BRUNSWICK
City of Macon Arrived Yesterdav With a Big
Load.
The City of Macon arrived at Brunswick
yesterday afternoon after a week's run.
She had over four hundred barrels of rosin
and many thousand barrel staves.
The boat encountered a heavy hail storm
yesterday before reaching Brunswick, but
no damage was done. The steamer will
leave on her return trip as soon as she
can be loaded.
FOR STEALING SHOES.
Private Morgan of the Third Was Tried this
Morning.
Private Morgan, who was charged with
stealing a pair of shoes from another sol
dier named Winn, was tried in Judge Balk
com s court this morning, but the case was
continued until tomorrow at 3 p. m., pend
ing the testimony of L. Goldman, a pawn
broker. who is out of the city today.
All the testimony with the exception of
Goldman s was introduced this morning. ■
and it looks rather black for Morgan.
Three witnesses, Carter, Eliott and Winn
testified that Morgan took the shoes and
admitted to them that he took them. They
also testified that he offered to pay for
them and when he was not allowed to do
so. he admitted stealing them and pointed
out the place where he had sold the shoes.
Morgan •denies this ana says that he di 1
not go with htem to any place and he will
prove that his statement is true when Mr.
Goldman returns tomorrow.
He will probably be bound over to the
city court under a heavy bond.
There will be another rush

INSURGENTS ACTIVE
On the Philippines-American Victory De
nied.
(Manila, July 19, via Hong Kong, July
22—The insurgents are gradually getting
their artillery into action against Pondo,
Santamezo and (Malate. The fighting de
sultory.
It is said on semi-official Spanish au
thority in Manila 'that the recent news
from Cuba is “a vile English fabrication”
that in reality Spaniards have been vic
torious, that “(Admiral Camara’s squadron
has coaled at Singapore and is expected

CENTRAL’S COAL
Burned Prior to the Receivership Must be
Paid For.
From the Savanah Morning News.
The mandate of the supreme court sus
taining a heavy judgment against the Cen
tral of Georgia Railway Company, has
just been handed down and mai- the judg
ment of the United States circuit. An or
der to that effect was filed with the clerk
of the court yesterday.
The case was that of tho Virginia and Al
abama Coal Company, in its own behalf,
and for the use of the Sloss Iron and Steel
Company, against the Central Railroad
and Banking Company and others. The
suit was for coal furnished just prior to
the receivership and. involved a large sum
of money.
This was one of the debts which, after
the reorganization was assumed by the
Central of Georgia Railway Company, that
is, of course, provided that the plaintiffs
won their suit. Under this decision the
supreme court and final decree, the Central
of Georgia Railway Company Is now re
quired to pay to the Virginia and Alabama
Coal and Iron Company $19,409.48 and the
sum of $13,039.95 for the use of the Sloss
Iro nand Steel Company. In addition to
th 1 -, it will have to pay the costs of -ourt,
amounting to about SBOO. The total of the
judgment runs up over $33,000 and is
about the last of the old cases against the
Central Railroad and Banking Company of
any moment; that is, of those cases in
which the new company is responsible for
the indebtedness.
NO POMPADOUR
Now Adorns James J. Corbett’s Manly
Brow.
New York, July 22 —'Not since ,he pit
John L. Sullivan over the ropes has Jim
Coibett accomplished as daring a feat as
this. (He has dispensed with his pompa
dour and pants his hair in the middle. (He
is “Pompadour Jim” no longer. It was
because the great fighter considered this
style of dressing his (hair a “hoodoo” that
he decided to brush it close to the temples,
after the manner of a society lion. Bob
Fitzsimmons can no longer call Jim a
“pompadour stiff.” However, many of the
sporting fraternity consider that Corbett
has made the mistake of his life. Many
believe that the pompadour was to J.\.
Cortbett what the bilblical Samson’s hair
was to him.
HOSPITAL TRAIN
Passed Through Yesterday With Sick Sol
diers Aboard.
Another hospital train loaded with sick
and wounded soldiers passed through the
city yesterday en route from Tampa to
the government hospital at Atlanta.
Over one hundred and fifty men were on
the train and many of them were d inger
ouusly ill. Many were unable to leave their
berths.
■Many ladies of the Relief Association
met the train and supplied the men with
milk and other refreshments. The soldiers
expressed themselves as being highly
pleased with the treatment they received
from the ladies.
Another train load will pass through one
day next week.

ABOUT BONOS
HELDJY BANKS
Are Thev Exempt from Taxa
tion Under the New
Stamp Act.
GOING OVER OLD GROUND.
The Same Question Was Raised
Some Time Ago When the State
Claimed Tax on Full Capital.
Another question has been raised in re
gard to the stamp tax. This time it in
terests the banks.
The query now is whether that portion
of a bank's capital invested in government
bonds is by law exempt from taxation
under the new revenue act.
Government bonds are by law exempt
"from all taxes or duties of the United
States, as well as from taxation in any
form by or under state, municipal or local
authority.” From this has arisen the claim
made in New York city that any (part of
a bank’s capital invested in such (bonds is
thereby exempt from the new federal
taxes.
'lnvestigation showed that the (Macon
banks have not yet made their returns for
the special tax imposed on their capital
and surplus. Whin they do make their
returns, though, those of them which have
any government bonds expect to include
the amount invested in them for taxation,
they construing the law to mean the en
tire capital no matter how invested.
This question came up three or four
years ago in a somewhat different form.
Prior to that time the national banks here
had not been returning the amount of
their capital invested in government bonds
for state, county or eity taxation, and the
state banks had not (been returning their
capital invested in state bonds. In making
returns for taxation the investments in
such (bonds were simply deducted as had
been the custom for years.
The point was raised at about the same
time by the state, that this was improper,
that such investments were subject to
taxation as part of the capital and such
taxes could not be construed as taxes on
the bonds themselves.
The lawyers of the banks cither ad
vised that this was good law or the banks
did not think it worth while fighting the
issue, and since then the (banks have been
taxed on their full capital, regardless as
to how it is invested. Many people sup
pose that the amount put into bonds is not
taxed, but such is not the case. There is
no tax on the bonds, but there is a tax on
the money put into them, 'Which practi
cally means the same thing. Os course,
private parties, even though in the bank
ing business, but not incorporated, do not
have to pay this tax on bonds they may
have money invested, and to that extent
the ruling under which regular banks
must pay such taxes is unjust and dis
criminative.
TALKEDPORTO RICO
IN THE CABINET.
It Was the Principal Subject
of Discussion and Plans
Were Made.
Washington, July 22 —The cabinet ses
sion occupied an (hour and a half and was
devoted almost exclusively to the Porto
Rico expedition and the incident aggres
sive steps in the campaign.
An immense chart of the island was sent
for during the session and the lines were
carefully studied.
After the session it was specifically and
positively stated that there had been no
discussion whatever as to the peace out
look, the new phase created by the Cuban
insurgents’ independent attitude nor as to
the action of Anguinldo -in the Philip
pines.
General Miles’ departure was, however,
made a matter of 'congratulation and the
steps to follow were thoroughly reviewed.
TWO MORE REFEREES
Appointed by Judge Speer Under Bankrupt
cy Bill.
Two more referees were appointed by
Judge Speer yesterday, under the bank
ruptcy bill. The two new referees are ex-
United States Marshall J. D. Harrell, of
Bainbridge, and Judge A. H. McDonnell,
of Savannah. There are two more ap
pointments yet to be made.
Ex-Marshall Harrell will have under his
jurisdiction the counties of Decatur,
Thomas, Brooks, Colquitt, Worth, Irwin,
Coffee, Berian, Loundes, Clinch and Eck
els.
The counties of Chatham, Bryan, Liber
ty, Tattnall, Montgomery, Emanuel, Bul
loch, Screven and Effingham will be under
the jurisdiction of Judge McDonnell.
It has been expected for some time that
Judge Spfer would appoint these referees,
and it is likely that he will appoint two
more at an early date.
Jewel Tray«,
Pretty little trays of metal or pottery
are much in vogue as receptacles for rings,
when said rings are “off duty, ” as now
and then happens, tbonuh not for so long
a period as to be put under lock and key
The trays aro not to be commended, how
ever, and for a very simple reason—they
am not good for the rings. Drops of water
will wear away stone itself, and the rough
or hard surface of these small trays is not
wholesome contact for anything so suscep
tible as gold. It is astonishing how soon
one’s rings will show the wear and tear of
nightly reposing upon an unyielding sur
face. Satin or velvet Is the only kind of
sontact that so fine a metal can endure
with profit, and unless padded or lined the
little trays are to bo tabooed by all who
value the.ir.rings. Even the china upright
twigged branch and the outstretched hand,
both very popular as ring holders, are not
to be sanctioned Anything short of flesh
itself, or that which is most like flesh, is
sure to make the rings show signs of wear
and tear.—New York Sun.
BOYS OVER 18
Liable for Military Duty Without Consent of
Parents.
Every man over 18 years of age is lia
ble to military duty without the consent
of parents. The governor has received a
communication from Lieutenant F. L. Pal
mer, the United States mustering officer
at Griffin, inclosing a leter from Adjutant
General Ccrbin stating that men over 18
years of age are Hable to military duty
and the consent of parents is not needed
to make their enlistment legal. It is nec
essary where the boy is under 18 years of
age. The impression has been that no one
can be taken under 18 and that those be
tween 18 and 21 years of age could onlj’ be
taken with the consent of the parents.
Under the daw every man over 18 is liable
to military duty and no consent is needed,
boys under 18 where the consent of par
ents is given. This is radically different
from the popular idea on the subject, but
it is the law and General Corbin says that
it will be
AUSTRALIAN SHEEP YARDS.
Work That Is Like War m General Sher
man Described the Latter.
The shearing season in the wool coun
tries?, says a writer In The Sketch, is the
most important and the busiest of any
which occur in sheep rearing. The swag
man has an opportunity which he does not
like and usually disregards, and the Eng
lish cadet has no reasonable excuse to re
main idle. The opening of the sheds is not
simultaneous, for, as the hot weather
comes down from the equator, those runs
away back —where it is too hot to curse
and one never sees the kangaroo— start
outting out some weeks before sheep walks
in less temperature, but cooler regions.
The shearers and the musterers travel in
their own mobs and in many cases work
the same circuit Shearing in Australia
is earlier than tn New Zealand, so much
so that when th* merry band has tallied
out the contract* with the "cornstalk.”
“gum chewing” and "banana” squatters
of New South Wales, Victoria and Queens
land it ships to Maoriland [ lying the
blades on the sheep of the Turoo islands,
returns in time for the early wool clips
among the God forgotten backs of Queens
land.
Prior to the shearing is the sheep mus
tering. For weeks the homestead has been
bathed in red clouds of sand, which rise
from the drafting yards as tho sheep play
"silly devils” when they uro worked. The
yarders with despair written on their faces
know that they are coming to the end of
their oaths and the dogs to the limits of
their endurance. Drafting on cool days is
possible and may be compassed with but
few detonations of a sulphurous character,
but on a scorcher, when meat can be cook
ed on the zinc roofs and blisters aro raised
by the drinking water, yard work of any
description is—hell, to accept the merest
and inadequate Australasian colloquial
ism. The wool washing crew is another
band of experts who “hum]) the billy’ ’ from
shed to shed. They scour the wood and
attend to drying and packing.
In New Zealand fleeces are baled up
without washing, but. the sands of Aus
tralia increase the weight so much that
tho expanses would swamp the returns
The bales will hold about 75 fleeces,
though this is no hard and fast rule. Au
approximate value is £lO, and the carriage
price is all contract. The groan of the
wheels, tho cracking of tho whips, tho
creak of the load, denote that tho clip is
almost gathered, and when the journey
begins the patient bullocks work with a
will till they drop on the burning sand,
exhausted by the scanty food, the short
ness of water, the pitiless sun and the
strain of tho weight. Tho journey is al
ways a far one on those back runs, but
where they ship by barges tho monotony
contains a pleasant change. To load tho
barge and slowly to flout down the stream
is an idleness which all men appreciate.
To lie up” n a halo and gaze, upon tho
snow topped mountain range, tho winding
river, the forests on the slopes, the, undu
lating paddocks melting into space, to
listen to the bleating of the sheep, tho low
ing of the oattle, the neighing of tho
horses, engenders a passion for the life,
which seems supreme. It is finer than the
life of cities. It lifts the idle dreamer to a
paradise of nature where, with gun and
rod, horse and dog, ho can enjoy sport, in
dulge tastes and love animals.
