Phone 29 WANT TO COME TO CAMP PRICE Detail from Fitzhugh Lee’s Corps Arrived in the Citv this Morning. ARE DELIGHTED WITH MACON They Say that General Lee is the Darling of the Camp and of the City—Carnt for Deserters. A detail consisting of Corporal H. G. Owen, Privates F. Selzer, F. Paddock and S. Silverson, of company E, Second Illinois regiment stationed at Jacksonville, arrived in the city this morning to carry the de serters, who were captured here several days ago, back to camp. Corporal Owen was in charge of the party w'ho came in heavily armed with their rifles and pistols. As soon as the detail arrived in the city Corporal Owen reported to Colonel Ray at Camp Price and told him that he had been ordered by Gen eral Fitzhugh Lee to bring the men "oack to camp. Colonel Ray gave him permis sion to take charge of the men. He went to the guard house and handcuffed the three men together. Corporal Owen was seen by a News re porter and was asked if the men were really deserters. “Yes,” he said, “they have been away from camp seventeen days and the authorities there have made every effort to capture them. I am sorry to say that they deserted from my regiment but they are the first ones who have done so. “I am very much in love with your town,” he said, “and this camp is the pret tiest place that I have seen in some time. At Jacksonville we are camped in the sand and have no shade except that which is afforded by the small pines. The only redeeming features about our eamp is the ■water, which is very good. “The men in this camp have a cinch to our boys. We are not allowed to leave camp but once a week and then it is only for four hours. We have the finest colonel in the army in Colonel Moulton and his wife is the mother of the whole regiment. Every day she goes from one company to another sewing for the boys, and she is always at the hospital. “That Southern man of yours, General Lee, is the pride of all of the 12,000 sol diers at Jacksonville and there is not a man who would not die for him. He is kind and considerate to the men under him and we all love him. “Our regiment is kept under the strictest discipline and. any man who violates the rules in the slightest manner is severely punished. “The men who we will carry back with us will probably receive a three years’ sentence as several deserters have been done that way." The detail is being entertained by com pany “M.” They will leave with the prisoners tomorrow at 11 o’clock. The de serters had a woe-begotten expression on their faces this morning as they sat in the guard house handcuffed. They put up a nice story when captured but have changed their tale altogether since Corporal Owen and his party arrived. CAKE WALK AT THE CABIN Will Be a Big Thing if the Clerk of the Weather Permits. Weather permitting, the barbecue and dance at the Log Cabin Club tonight will be the biggest event of the week. It is for the benefit of the Soldiers Relief Fund and a large number of people will be out at the club. Outside of the barbecue the feature of the entertainment will be the cake walk which will be participated in by the wait ers at the barbecue. All of these waiters are well known Ma con men and a considerable amount of amusement will be the result of the con test. The prize for the cake walk whi.ch will of course be an immense cake will be awarded by Congressman Bartlett. A special schedule has been arranged for the occasion by the Metropolitan Street, Railway Company. ARE TOGETHER ONCE AGAIN. Eads and Neel Doing Busi ness at the Old Stand Under Old Name. Once more the firm of Eads, Neel & Co. is doing business under the same roof and to the trading public it is a great pleasure to see the two men who are known to be such firm friends in private life doing bus iness at the same old stand under the same old name and without any semblance of competition between them. Even a clothing war between two such good fellows as John C. Eads and Joe Neel •carried with it a sort of an idea that they were at one another's throats and that it was impossible to see them so keen to capture trade one from the other without some personal feeling -entering into the matter. But all danger of that is now over and the friends are together in business and will proceed to make war on the other fellows. They say that they are better prepared than ever to give the public the best of it, and that is saying a great deal, as this firm has always done a business that left a sense of good treatment on the memorf of those who did business with them.

Brown Canvass Kind Indicate that Regiment Ofdy. The brown canvass hats worn by the soldiers of the Third regiment have been thought by many to be the new regulation campaign hats for the army, but these military sky pieces when worn designate immune regiments only, the soldiers of the state regiments stiH wearing the felt cam paign lists. Speaking a£ the immune hats, it may b,e said that they are not proving very satis factory, so j I is learned. The reason of this is that they, as soon as they get their first wettjng, gef gs jimp gs a dish rag and ail out of shape. It js safe to say no two of the hats have the same shape, which as a result gives the soldiers when in line a rather un uniform appearance. JUDGE DID NOT SEE THE FITNESS - Amusing Case of Petty Lar ceny from Third Regi ment in Court. DISSMISSED THE SOLDIER, The Judge Sent for a Tape Measure and Measured Off the Unmen tionables Said to be Stolen. A soldier of the Third regiment was tried this morning in the city court before Judge Ross on the charge of stealing part of the kit of a brother soldier. The article in question was a part of a cotton undersuit plaintiff said he had worn for some time and than had put them in a box in his tent and that with other under suits they had been stoh-n. The soldier on trial was found with the articles in a package in his hand and in the package were the missing unmentiona bles, or something like them. The package produced in court and Judge Ross went into a thorough investi gation of the case. The prosecuting soldier is a large man and it will require Several months, if not years, of setting up drill to get his figure into shape. He measures on his own admission forty four inches around the waist and stands about five feet seven or eight inches in height. The articles produced in court were care fully measured by Judge Ross, who sent for a measure for that purpose. He found that the articles measured only thirty inches in the waist and twenty-two inches in the leg. The defendant soldier said that he had found them near the river where they had been thrown by a soldier who was too lazy to wash them, but he . washed them and was just about to swan them for a wa termelon with a negro at the gate when he was found with them in his hand. He said that they were too small for him, and that for that reason he could not wear them. • It was evident that they were too small for him, and the judge, after carefully measuring the man with his eye who claimed the clothing as his, and hearing the statement of the defendant, dismissed the case. It is the general opinion among mTitary men in the city and of those who have had anything to do with military life, that such cases as these, for the credit of the regi ment and for the army generally, should be kept out of the courts. It was very evident that the charge against this man was brought carelessly, Aid it understood that there is another case to be brought again, t him in the saniu court. Colonel Ray has not yet found out that there ere some constabl. sin the justice courts who are entirely too ready to bring themselves into prominence even at the expense of an individual soldier or the whole regiment. When he does find it out he will, no doubt, require the constables to show’ credentials before they pass the guaid at the gate and'will investigate such cases as this, in his own orderly room be fore he allows his men to bo put in jail and kept there unt>l tried by the state courts. A week’s exercise with Indian clubs, dumbells and a Springfield rifle for eight hours a day would have a more salutary effect on the soldier who lightly regards the laws of meum tuum than all the jail experiences of a life time. C.A.JSTOH.TA.. Bears the Kin(l You Have AI W Bought sl.lO A BUSHEL FOR PEACHES IN MACON. Citizens of Vineville Largely Pay that Price—A Napo leonic Hackman and His Little “Fiver” in Peaches. The average hackman is usually credited with financiering abilities of no ordinary character, but the Napoleon of the frater nity is one who operated in Vineville yes terday. This hackman, black though he is, would find a rich harvest waiting for him on Wall street, w-here less talented financiers than he have made fortunes in a day. But stocks and bonds have no attraction for this Macon hackman. The height of his ambition was to take a little flyer in peaches. The business of hack-driving is calculated to sharpen the wits, and this particular hack driver had not robbed un suspecting victims all these years for nothing. But the ordinary mode of prac ticing his particular form of brigandage had become too apparent. He had all but played the gamut, so to speak. There was just one opening for him. Recalling to himself the fact that “hack ing” had grow-n dull and profitless since so many of the monied men of the town left for the war, he concluded that the best w-ay to make money was to make it hon estly—-but make it. While meditating thus he saw a country darkey driving down the street with a wagon load of peaches. Forty cents a bushel, but no buyers. The country darkey yelled hirpself hoarse in his effort to get rid of his stock. Peaches were evidently a drag on the market. But right here is where genius rose above commonplaceness, and solved a prob lem which was entirely too opaque for the horticulturist. What happened only shows, too, what environments sometimes do for a man. Had the country darkey been a Macon hackman, at least if he had been engaged at it long enough to dull his con science and sharpen his wits which is not long—he might have displayed the Napo leonic qualities of the other, and the other might have been the country darkey un able to get rid of his peaches. But is was just as it was. The real Napoleon ot finance was engaged in driv ing a hack, while the luckless horticul turists had the peaches for sale. Here is where their interests became one, in a sense. The hackman had solved ip hjs mind the problem of selling that tuafl of peaches at a profit, and, at the same time, of injecting new life into the business of hacking. How his plan w r as executed is toj! in the following: Yesterday omrnipg a polite hackman stopped in front of the residence of Dr. Carroll, the good-natured and well-beloved pastor of the Vineville Baptist church. The hackman evidently thought it was best to start in on a good-natured man—especially a man who gives more thought to the things of the next world than to the things of this. He approached Dr. Carroll with a bland and seductive smjle. and, with a guileness air said: “Doctor, a gentlemen at de Macon and Dublin road has saijnt you dese The good Doctor's face was radiant at the thought of being so kindly remem bered. He asked for the name of his friend, but, for the life of him, the hack man couldn’t think of it. The Doctor ■nanied over every friend and acquaintance who v.ould be likely to send him a basket of preaches, and finally settled it in his own tnir.d that it must have been Mr. . ' Isn’t that the sender?” asked the Doc tor, persuasively. The hackman was not particular, so he admitted it was. and the Doctor seemed to be more pleased than ever. It wasn’t a very large basket of peaches, and the fruit wasn’t particularly fine; but it always the spirit of such gifts that Iqpds them tehir value. The hackman did not seem eager to leave. Perhaps he shared in the good Doctor’s pleasure. .At any rate, he stlyed, like the waiter whose presence is a gentle insinuation that you have forgotten some thing. Suddenly the Doctor began to sus pect that perhaps he had been rather re miss and Unappreciative. “Oh. do I owe you something for bring ing them out?” asked the Doctor. “Well, sir, er quarter will do.” replied the magnanimous hackman. And the Doctor cheerfully paid th* freight, feeling that it would be base in gratitude to question the business judg ment of the friend who had sent him ten cents worth of peaches, by a twenty-five cent hack. But the Doctor was glad enough to get off even at that; his only surprise was that the hackman had not wanted fifty cents, for it is always fifty cents to Vineville. you know. Secretly the Doctor commended and blessed the hack man for his liberal disposition. Later in the day the good Doctor met his friend down town. He at once began to dozen other citizens of Vineville had re marks no one could have told that the Doctor had paid the freight, so great was his appreciation of the kind remembrance. Imagine his amazement when the friend denied all knowledge of the matter. The Doctor let the subject drop rather sud denly. He was not quite sure about things. A horrible suspicion flashed into his mind. He tried to banish it, for the good Doctor tries to think well of every one—even a hackman. But the more he thought of it the more it troubled him. He decided to confide in a friend of his a financier who might be able to fathom such a transaction. He confided, and he learned that the financier himself and a dozen other citizensof Vineville had re ceived baskets of peaches that morning by the same hackman. The peaches cost the hackman 10 cents a bushel. The baskets held three-quarters of a peck or about seven cents worth, and the baskets cost three cents each, or a total cost of 10 cents for each basket of peaches. Net profit to the hackman—ls cents on each basket or sl,lO a bushel for his peaches. Colonel Dan Hughes, who is one of the most experienced fruit growers in the state, says it is the highest price yet se cured for Georgia peaches this year. To Landlords.
