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. IT IS ALMOST* UP TO MACON. 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.

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 Saturday for shoes at the Fire Sale. Come early.

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. Bent, 'he Klondike. Mr. A. C.

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. STILL IN SESSION.
