tMMUNES HAVE
ORDERS JO MOVE
Will Go to Santiago in a Few
Davs—The Men Are
Happy.
ONLY ONE Om' RATIONS
Is Al! that Will Be Issued to the
Men No More Furloughs Will
Be Granted Them.
The Third regiment of immunes, Colonel
j Ray commanding, has received orders to
i move immediately to Santiago.
The order does not state the exact time
i but it directs the colonel and his command
:.o hold themselves in readiness for imme-
I miate orders to move.
Colonel Ray made the announcement
I yesterday afternoon while the command
' was on parade, and the announcement was
i receivtd with cheers by the men, who are
i tired of a life of inactivity and like all
.soldiers they want something new even if
I they go out of the frying pan into the lire.
Th> officers, too, are delighted, and want
to know the time at which they rnay ex
pect to be orderiM out. It i» probable, Col
onel Ray thinks, that the regiment will
not receive more than thirty-six hours no
tice, and he expects to receive that notice
in a few days.
But they will be ready even if the order
came today. The regiment is in good
shape. It is now up to its full strength
and the continual drilling that the recruits
have ie -eived has put them in condition.
They have, too, had a taste of camp life
under difficult circumstances. The weath
er for the last ten days has kept them in
an almost continual soak and that there is
very little sickness speaks volumes for the
condition of the men before they went into
the ranks.
There is probably no regiment in the
service that can show a lower sick list.
This is the rule, too, among the officers as
well as the men.
All of them are pleased with Macon, and
Colonel Ray speaks in t'he highest terms of
the treatment that his command has re
ceived since Camp Price was first estab
lished.
It is looked upon as very probable that
another regiment or two will be stationed
at Camp Price after the Third leaves. It
has been shown that it is healthy and that
it is an ideal camping round is testified to
by Colonel Ray and by every officer and
man who has visited the camp from other
points in the state and elsewhere.
Macon will look quiet after the Third
has gone unless -another regiment should
take its place at once. Taken as a whole,
the men have behaved well and have given
wonderfully little trouble to the civil au
thorities. Altogether Macon will be sorry
to lose Colonel Ray and his regiment and
will follow the fortunes of the regiment
with deep interest.
The fact t-h-at there is so much fever at
Santiago does not seem to disturb the men
or officers at all. They say that they ex
pect to mo sent to the higher grounds, and
I the officers say that the previous training
of the men will be in their favor when
they get to Cuba.

JOINT RECEIVERS
Appointed Yesterday for the Macon Oil and
Ice Company,
In the superior court yesterday Messrs.
Claude Estes and Wallace McCaw were ap
pointed joint receivers for the Macon Oil
and lee Company, which has been in the
hands of Mr. Claude Estes for the last
month as temporary receiver. The receiv
ers will wind up the business as quickly
as possible, but it is Impossible to say at
this time what the ultimate outcome of it
will be.
In the same court yesterday Mr. J. R.
Cooper argued motions for new trials in
the murder cases of Harry Joiner, con
victed of the murder of Lawson Yon, and
of James Stevens, coavicted of the murder
of James Kershaw.
Roth of the motions were refused by the
! court. Rills of exceptions were then filed
i and the eases will be taken to the supteme
j court on these grounds.
The course of the defending counsel in
; these cases is thought to be full of danger
|to his clients, both of whom, it was
: thought at the time were very fortunate
! in getting a recommendation from the jury.
■ and it is not at all probable that another
i jury in both of these-cases might leave out
these recommendations, in the event of
' which the chances are that both of the
i men who are now under sentence of life
imprisonment would be sentenced to hang.
, with a very good chance that they would
not escape the gallows.

JUDGE TRIPPE’S ILLNESS,
Became Unconscious at Breakfast Table—
Has Since Recovered-
Culloden. August 1. —About 6 o'clock
Thursday morning, while at the breakfast
table. Judge Robert P. Tripp became sud
denly unconscious and fell forward on the
table and remained in that position until
friends were summoned to his side and
carrrled nim to his room and placed him
on his bed.
It was an hour before he was restored to
consciousness again.
When consciousness returned he seemed
to be somewhat alarmed at his condition
and asked many questions about his illness.
He could remember being at the table and
having taken about a third of a cup of
coffee, when suddenly a strange feeling
came over him and he said to his brother:
“Jim. I feel very strange.”
With that remark he became unconscious
but before noon he seemed to have fully
recovered consciousness and talked freely
and interestingly to those about him.
His friends throughout the state w-ill be
pleased to hear of his recovery.

PRESENT DAY WAR HEROES.
What a Western Officer Says of the Amy
Salute,
Neport News, Va., Aug. 1. —Here the
volunteers of East and West come together
in camp for the first time. On soil consid
ered sacred by both, their different actions
are remarkable.
The man from the East, the city trooper,
is proud of his personal ancestry, proud
that his grandfather shed his blood on
these historic spots. But he stops at that.
What are localities to him? Why, his su
burban conductor yells out Yorktown
Old Point, Bennington. Valley Forge or
names just as sacred. George Washing
ton? Why George was a man. Over at Mt.
Vernon is the house he lived in. Heroes
live in fact here, and history books are
reverenced no more than as mere records.
But the Western boys. They now for the
first time really realize that the Monitor
sank the Merrimac, that the Revolution is
more than a schoolmaster’s tale. York
town. Washington. Hampton Roads are
pronounced reverently—much as a Salva
tion army recruit says God and Heaven.
So much for the dead and the past, but
the order is reversed by the living.
The East respects and salutes the haugh
ty officers because they are in uniform of
a higher rank: the West salutes and re
spects in spite of the uniform and rank.
The a tion of the Easterners almost leads
one to believe that were a royal family
to be installed suddenly the East would sa
lute and raise no question—provided the
uniforms were really handsome. The aw
ful humbleness of the Easterner in the
presence of shoulder straps is pitiful.
The Western volunteer salutes, but he
does it in away that says almost audibly;
“Say! ain't this funny!”
The Eastern officer takes the salute and
I returns it as he would the sacramental
wine cup: but the Westerner —here is what
a Western officer said:
"This salute regulation is the biggest
kind of a wigwag fraud. The army is a
i perpetual salute. The privates and officers
wigwag at each other, but all wigwag at
the colonel, who is the wiwwager-in-chief.
No wonder the major general seldom min
gles with the men —his right arm would
drop oil" from wigwagging. Say. they ought
to appoint the son-of-somebody official
wigwagger at each regimental headquar
ters to salute for all and save official en
: orgy.”

The Crane and the Sparrow.
Court square has a spindle legged crane
which stalks in solemn dignity to and fro.
This crane c.-.tchcs sparrows, and the ef
forts he makes to swallow his prey cause
Fpeetat is to gather hj the score. The
erune stands quietly like a statue and
waits. The sparrows fly ab nit. fearlessly,
not even startled by the strange bird.
They have seen nuts on a stick before and
they are not afraid Oh. no' Tiien one
of the sparrows lights verv t.car the crane.
The rag lieromes lisejv and his lavik is
shot out with iightr. i'g quickne*!. and the
sparrow caught i.„ut by the neck.
Then eon the fun The sparrow is a
little to swallow The crane kills
him. thinking the small bird's lively ca
js-rs must 1* the cause of the dilHculty.
Death n.aki s the task no easier. Thespar
row still chitk'H the crane. The cram 1 tries
the sparrow heisd on. The small bird s
winys stick out and prevent the sparrow
from going down The « rane starts at
the feet, but the 11 arhers on the prospec
tive dinner are rutiled the wrong way and
the second attempt tails. An idea strikes
his cratie.-hip He walks to a small tub
of water and soaks the sparrow bo that
the feathers cling closely. It is still an
impossible task to swallow the bird. The
crane works and works, and finally, by
pounding the sparrow almost- to a pulp, at
last makes a meal. Then the audience
disperses wondering at the crane’s marvel
lous digestion—Memphis Scimitar.
The Two Riviera*.
The warmest parts of Italy visited by
the ordinary tourist are two rivieras
(shores), one commonly called the Riviera,
running from Nice to Genoa, where lie
Mentone, Monte Carlo, San Remo, etc.;
the other a still more beautiful coast, on
the sunny side of the rocky promontory
that bounds the bay of Naples on the
south, of which Amalfi is the gem. The
Riviera from Nice to Genoa is sheltered
from cold north winds by the barrier of
the Alps, is full in the face of the sun and
often does not see a snowstorm for years.
Semitrop.ical plants grow freely, and the
temperature is so mild that many victims
of lung troubles are sent there to conval
esce or die. It has hotels innumerable,
which are for the most part well filled
during the first four months of the year.
Queen Victoria usually goes there for some
weeks In the early spring, and it abounds
with royalty and nobility.—Robert Luce

The Army Paymaster.
The most popular officer holding the
commission of the United States govern
ment is the paymaster. In the eyes of the
troops at the front he is only a little lower
than the angels. When he arrives in camp,
ho Is received with something like the en
thusiasm that surprised the prodigal son.
The best that there is in the way of tent,
things to eat and things to drink are at
his disposal. The colonel smiles, and the
majors smile, and the captains smile, and
the smile progresses on down to the small
est drummer boy. Everybody spruces up,
puts on his best available clothes and does
his best to do credit to the regiment.
You would think that the businesslike
man in a major’s uniform was Miss Co
lumbia, the president and the general com
manding rolled into one. And then the
paymaster reciprocates. He loses no time
in getting through the books. He has
been known to toil half the night so that
the boys might not have to wait for their
money any longer than was absolutely
necessary. As a rule, there is a day’s work
in the regimental rolls, hut the paymas
ter doesn’t spare himself or his assistants.
He looks as satisfied when his task is done
as if he wore about to go out with th©
boys whom he has made so happy. But
he doesn’t, f<»r he has to fly away to fresh
scenes of activity.—New York Sun.

THE FIRST BABY.
Its Coming is Looked Forward to
With Both Joy and Fear and its .
Safe Arrival is Hailed With
Pride and Delight by All.
The arrival of the first baby in the
household is the happiest and most im
portant event of married life. The young
wife who is to become a mother delights
to think of the happiness in store for her
when the little one shall nestle upon hei
breast and latterly she shall hear it iisp
the sweet and holy name, ‘‘mother.”
But her happy anticipation quickly van
ishes when she realizes the terrible pain
and suffering through which she must
pass while bringing the little one into
the world. An indescribable fear of the
danger attendant upon the ordeal soon
dissipates her joyfulness.
Thousands of women have learned
by exjierienee that there is absolutely
no necessity for the sufferings which at
tend child-birth; they know that by
the use of “Mother’s Friend”—a scien
tific liniment —for a few weeks before
the trying hour, expectant mothers can
so prepare themselves for the final
hour tiiat the pain and suffering of the
dreaded event are entirely obviated and
