4 CAMP NORTHED IIS LIVELY NOW Soldiers Are Coming in Everv Dav-860 Have Been Mustered In. HUM SPENCE HUS —— Os the Battle of Santiago-Boys Under Twenty - one Cannot En list Without Parents Consent. Th<’ Third Georgia regiment at * amp Northen, Georgia, ia being rapidly «H<‘d up. Eight hundred and aixty-one men are now mtMtered in and there are fifty-two recruit* who have not yet taken the oath. Co! John S. Candler ia in charge of the regiment and the officer* who rank next t<> him are Lieutenant Colonel Bob Berner, Major Marcus Beck and Major Robert Hpenee. who wan in the Santiago fight, fitajor Spence was a second lieutenant in the Sixteenth infantry prior to his appoint ment a« major, and was wounded twice In the battle of Santiago. (inly a few of the commissioned officer* are in camp at present as many of them are out recruiting. Four hundred men are Deeded to complete the regiment and the officers are working hard to secure them. The surgeons at camp are very strict in their examinations and only a small per centage of those who are examined suc ceed in passing. The men at 'Camp Northen are all fine specimens of manhood and in appearance are far superior to the men at Camp Price. No guns have been issued to the soldiers yet but they are drilled in all the field movements without arms. Retreat and dress parade were held yesterday after non and the regiment showed up in splen did shape. A band has been enlisted and it gives two concerts daily and also plays at all drills. Guard mounting is held each morning at 8 o’clock and an orderly for the colonel is selected. Lieutenant Palmer, of the Twenty-first Infantry, is the mustering officer. He is the jollleet man in camp and can tell more jokes than any man in Griffin. He has dubbed the rigiment “The Griffin Legal Light Infantry." Ho says that it has so many Judges, solicitor generals and law yers that no other name would be appro priate. He says that if the regiment were to get in two mih* of a battle some one of the lawyers would make an application to one of t.he judges for an injunction, to prevent the regiment from getting into a fight and the Judge would be sure to grant it. Captain Sterns, of Rome, has the largest number of men in camp. Captain Burr, of Griffin, comes next with seventy-<three. Each company is required to have 106 men. Lieutenant Palmer was asked if it was true that he gave out information to the effect that a boy over 18 years of age could enlflist htwiout ithe consent of his parents. He said. "Os course I did not. 'I made no such statement. It is another newspaper He. 1 did not write.the army regulations ami I have no authority to change them. It is against the regulations to enlist a man under 31 years of age Without his con sent and I have made no statemend to the sontrary,” It is understood that a few captains have been enlisting men under 21 wit’nout consent of their parents. Since the com munication. which Lieutenant Palmer is said to have made was published. It will be seen licit it is against the regulationsdo enlist a man under 21 without consent of his parents and .the officers who have been doing so are lialde to be courtmartialed. Major Spence was asked how the men behaved under fire and he said: “The first •hell that came by every man dropped to the groundand it was all we officers could do to make them go forward. We found it hard to urge the men on. when thiey ■were being fired upon unless they were allowed to return it. As soon as the men began firing they got all right and were no more trouble. "1 don't think that General Shatter in tended us to fight the first day. We had no orders." He was asked how the volunteer forces fought. “Oh. well enough." he replied, "but they had ,to be sent to the rear as every time they opened fire the smoke from the Springfield’s would show our po sitions to the Spaniards and they would fire right into us. The volunteers wanted to tight, but they would have given away our position. We regulars were using •mokeless |>owder while the volunteers were not." “Our firing line was decreased consid erably on account of the number of men it took to carry back the wounded. Some times when a man was badly wounded it took four men to carry him to the rear. Many of the men who went to the rear never came back until the firing was over. “ 1 had been in the fight about an hour when 1 was shot in the hand and .1 was ordered to .the rear (by my captain to have my wound dressed. While on my way to the hospital about two miles from the firing line 1 saw one of the generals and his-staff sitting under some trees smoking. They had not been near the firing at all and seemed to he taking it easy. T he next day when I was on my way from the hospital to the firing line a bullet from a Spanish sharp-shooter struck me in the leg disabling me entirely and once more 1 had to be carried to the rear." Major Spence says that the men had to endure great hardships and that many bmve mein fell while trying to cut .the barbed wire which surrounded the Spanish entrenchments. Major Spence is an interesting talker and it is very Interesting to listen .to his description of the battle. He is a Georgian bv birth and is a graduate of the Univer sity of Georgia. He graduated from West Point in 1893. He is the ranking major at Griffin. The quality of the uniforms issued to the men at Griffin is the best which has been issued to any of the volunteer forces. The officers think that the will be tull in two weeks and that they will be assigned to General Lee's command at Jacksonville. Camp Northen is a very healthy place. White Shoes. To wind up the season without any White Shoes in stock is our aim X S2OO Almost half price. B, C and D widths. Come while we have your size. Phone 29 CLISBY & HcKAY.

The Third Georgia will "be a fine regi ment when the organization is completed.

New York, July 29. —T'te views of Span ish editors on the destruction of Cervera’s fleet are suown by these quotations from Madrid newspapers received here: “Montojo’s squadron yesterday—Cerve ra's squadron today!” the Heraldo ex claims. "This is horrible. This is dread ful. No account of the lost shins. No Spaniard would weep over ships lost in an other Trafalgar on account of the blood that was shed. There is Cuba cov ered with our blood, and nobody ever thought of it. What makes our grief the greater is not the extent of our disaster, but the consideration that what for us was annihilation, was for the Yankees the af fair of a moment. These figures tell their own tale —Cadarre is killed and' with him hundreds of obscure heroes fell also. But what did it cost Dewey to produce such a terrible catastrophe? Six wounded sailors. ‘‘Our best fighting ships, our admirable cruisers and swift destroyers are sunk off the Cuban coast, their crews ar? slain or captured, with Admiral Cervera at their head, but what did such a complete vieto tory cost Sampson. One dead and two wounded. These figures make not only a striking contrast, but they complete the effect of redhot iron in the flesh. "What? Is there no means bv which we may kill as we are killed? Is there no means by which the guns on our ships may cause a slight scratch on the enemy?” Captain Aunon, the minister of marine, is quoted by El Nacional as having said: “If the American warships come to Spain I. with whatever craft be left >o us, shall go to head them off or perish. Such is my duty.” Upon which the Republican leader, Sal meron. is quoted as having remarked: "Very fine, very fine. But you will see how he does not one of the other. All that is left tc Spain is a disposition 'or brag ging and Joking. The cost of Cervera’s defeat is figured by El Nacional as follows: “The Vizcaya, >3,600,000. “The Oquendo. $3,600,000. “The Maria Teresa. $3,600,000 “The Cristobal Colon. $4,400,000. “The Pluton. $500,000. “The Furor. $500,000. Artillery. $3,800,000. Total. $20,000,000. “That is to say $20,000,000 of which Sampson has given a good account in three or four hours.” is the comment of the El Nacional. FINAL PLANS WILLBE MADE Important Meeting of the Car nival Executive Commit tee this Afternoon, FINANCES ARE ALL RISHI. The Committee Has Not Yet Com menced an Active Canvass for Subscriptions. The executive committee of the Macon Carnival Association will meet at the rooms of the Chamber of Commerce this afternoon at 5 o’clock and a large attend ance of the committee is expected. This will be the most important meeting that the committee‘has held since it was decided to hold the Carnival. Since the last meeting a great deal has been done and the success of the under taking is assured. At the last meeting it was a grave ques tion whether it would be possible to raise the necessary amount of money in view of ; the fact that the war was liable to last for an indefinite time and under those cir cumstances the merchants of the city would not be inclined to give their support to the undertaking, but that has all been changed now. Peace is in sight and the city has set the example by subscribing a thousand dollars as a start to the fund. This amount has already been augment ed by large subscriptions from prominent firms and the finance committee will be ■ able to report this evening that it has al ready two thousand or twenty-five hun dred dollars in sight There will be no difficulty in raising the rest of the money and a much larger amount than was anticipated will be forth coming. This, of course, means that the Carnival, will be the biggest thing that Macon has ever offered to attract the people of the surrounding country. But there is much to be done. All of the committees have hard work ahead of them as the prepara tions were pecesssarilv delayed and the rush from now on wjll be tremendous. The finance committee of the Carnival Association has not yet started to canvass for subscriptions. They were out for only a short time yesterday and received $250 from the Acme Brewing Company. Chairman Talbott, of the finance com mittee, said this morning: “We have not yet started an active canvass for money. It will be necessary for us to write letters to all the prominent business firms before we start out for subscriptions. “We huve been assured $2,500 already and we do not think that we will have any trouble in raising the necessary amount. We will start in on the large subscriptions, which have been assured us and I think that we can get $3,000 in ten days. The Acme Brewing Company donated $250 yes terday and we hope to get in many sub scriptions in the next few days." Bears the K’ n d You Have Always Bought B *°r MRS. E. K. BURNETT Died Last Night at Her Home on Ross Street. Mrs. E. K. Burnett, widow of the late J. C. C. Burnett, died last night at 11:20 o’clock, at her home on Ross street. She had been tenderly nursed for weeks through a severe illness, and when she peacefully fell into her last, long sleep she was surrounded by a large company of her sorrowing relatives. She had lived to a ripe old age, being in her 78th year, and her warm, loving heart and cheerful nature had won for her a large number of devoted friends. The home of “Grandma Burnett’s,” as she was lovingly called by all who knew her, was always the gathering place of friends and relatives. It is impossible to estimate the good, her dear life has accom plished, being for so long an earnest Chris tian with an influence so pure and gentle. She was a model in her old age. Always young of heart, she drew the little chil dren close about her. and kept herself sur rounded with sweet flowers that they might enjoy them with her. When quite young she married a Mr. Willingham, who, in attempting to extin guish a fire which occurred where the Ho tel Lanier now stands, was crushed to death by a falling building. Her only liv ing child bj’ this marriage is Mrs. Hen ry Garfield, of this city. She next married Mr. Goodyear and upon his death was left with four sons, viz: B. S., W. A., J. H. and G. A. Goodyear, well known and highly esteemed men. Her third husband was the late J. C. C. Burnett, who had five children at the time of the mar-:age, viz: John R. Burnett. Tobe Buri, ett, Joe Burnett, Mrs. it S Go< dyear and Mis. B. S. Jones, of Ch?.: - ictte, N. C. This large family connection has been a very devoted and u. ed one, and they f-e» that bet wonder'ill influence has held their, in these close, sweet bond>. She leaves about thirty grand children and sixteen great grandchildren. The funeral exercises will be conducted this afternoon at Centenary church —the church which she and her late husband loved so much. Rev. T. D. Ellis, will offi ciate, being assisted by Mr. J. J. Cobb, who for years has been a close friend of the family. The sweet singing of Mr. and Mrs Burt Wilder, one of the family connections, will be very grateful to the family, as “Grand ma Burnett" loved their music so much. The pallbearers will be her four sons, B. S., W. A., G. H. and J. H. Goodyear, her three step sons, John R., Tobe and Joe Burnett, and her grandson, Leon Garfield. Though she will rest at Rose Hill cem etery her influence will live until time shall be no more. WILL SHIP CAR LOAD OF FRUIT To the First Regiment in Chickamauga on Next Tuesday. A carload of watermelons, peaches, can teloups and other South Georgia fruits will be shipped from here to the boys of the First Georgia regiment at Chickamau ga on Tuesday. Mr. T. S. Lowry has been very aeive in soliciting the fruits for the soldiers, and he has met with a hearty response from the people. The people from other states have been shipping their soldiers fruits and other delicacies since they have been in camp and Macon intends doing the same thing for the Georgia boys. Many of the prominent fruit growers have promised to send in large shipments of fruit for the car by Monday, and hun dreds of people from the city have signi fied their intention to contribute things. The route by which the car will be ship ped has not yet been decided upon, hut will be given out in tomorrow's News. Donations of watermelons, ‘ peaches or any other kind of fruits will be cheerfully Macon news frieay evening, july 29 iß g s. r ece.vey by Mr. T. St Lowry, or by The N’ewL The. freight on the car will cost some thing of course, and small contribu.ions of money will be cheerfully received. Already about 300 melons have been do nated arid about one hundred crates of peaches, and they are coming in to Mr. ‘Lowry every hour in the day. Fruit of any kind will be highly prized by the Georgia boys as they have had very little thia year. The fruit growtrs could do nothing better with their surplus fruit than to send it to the soldiers. Mr. Lowry says that the car is sure to go and that the people who ntend to contribute anything for the boys should send it to him by Monday evening at the depot of delivery which will be desig nated in the News tomorrow. IMPORTANT GATHERING Will Be Held at Mt. Airy in the Near Fu ture. A grand gathering of Northeast Georgia patriots will be held at Mt. Airy. G.. on Wednesday. Au gust 3rd. The object of the meet ing will be for the purpose of arousing the enthusiasm of the people and if possible to procure more recruits for the army as many more are needed to fill up the ranks.

They have (been the first in the field in each case. ADMIRAL CERVERA’S KINSHIP. Admiral Cervera’s full surname is Cer vera y Topete. . According to the rules of Spanish nomen culture, the mother’s name, among per sons of good birth, is attached to the fath er's by the conjunction “y.” Admiral To pete, who started the revolution against Queen Isabella, was an uncle of Cervera. He would be more than one hundred years old if still living. One of his sisters mar ried Admiral Cervera’s father, and their son has taken Topete as a second name or patronymic, Another sjster who married a Nunez, became the mother of Admiral Nunez y Topete. Another sister was the mother of Arturo Baldassano y Topete, late consul general of Spain in New York. All of these kinsmen bear an excellent name, as types of the hignest quality of Spanish manhood. Members of our diplo matic service who have known them so cially, including Assistant Secretary Adee, of Washington, >D. C., express themselves warmly in their praise. COTTON FUTURES.

The Savannar Press makes the following deserved mention of a well known Macon lady, who is fast making a mpst enviable reputation as a writer: “One of the most pleasant writers in Georgia is Miss Essie C. McMillan, who contributes from time to time very interesting articles to the Macon Telegraph. Miss McMillan writes with great freedom and good sense and her col umn is widely read. She has published some of her best pieces in northern papers, where they have been cordially received. Miss McMillan is a careful, conscientious and talented lady and her work is attract ing considerable attention.” Miss Annie Chick is making a decided hit in her illustrated songs at Crump’s park.
