SWAMP ECHOES
ARE SILENT NOW
Camp Price is Deserted and
the Third Regiment
Has Gone.
CHANCES FOR ANOTHER
To Be Located Here Are Not Good
—Macon Will Be Considered,
However, if Change is Made.
Th. 1 nil I Regiment has gone and Camp
Pnc< I.- h'.-erted The echoes in the swamp
no longer complain that they “Can’t get
'< m lip and the lightning bug is no longer
dismayed by the demand for “lights out.”
Aft.; th< unwonted bustle of the last
sixty days Central City park looks more
maj. -up ally -oh inn and more mournfully
lonely than ever.
Th.- regiment got off in good shape about
ft o'clock Saturday night. The weathei was
not propitious The skies were over
clouded and the rain fell in unrelenting
drizzle, harmonizing between the scenes of
pitting betw.en the soldiers and the girht
they left behind them.
I p to the last moment It seemed to be
the pt. vailing opinion that the department
.1: Washington would countermand the or
der sot moving, but none came, and the
tboys went out with a whoop that spoke
well sot their courage, but belled the feel
ing 1n their hearts.
Then .-an be no doubt that the general
feeling wa. one of disinclination to go to
b'.intlago. Thl- does not mean that the sol
diers. either th" officers or th- men, de
sired to . nrli.k a duty, but they felt that
it wa- .1 Inly th it tb.y should not ba ask
ed to perform it this time. Very few of
then knew rbai the word immune meant ’
and very good cire hid been taken by all
the officers not to enlighten any of those
w 10 did not know. Unfortunately the bliss
pf ignorance did not go far.
The men now realize that they have an
enemy to fate that takes mote courage to
fare than all the Spaniards that ever did
swarm or ever might swarm on the forti
fication: around Santiago.
The Thir l regiment of "Imtnunes” are
as much heroes as .my flat have gone to
the war and ate now returning to be
i.utsi I into good health and whqse places
.ite to be taken by the immunes, so called.
All sorts of rumors are going the rounds
.about the probable location of another reg
iment a. C’tnp Price, but none of fhem
have, so far, any foundation. It is of
course Just fios.-ll.b that som.i of the
troops may be sent b re, bur It is riot at
all probable.
Senator Bacon has done as much as P
was possible for one man to do to have the
Third regimetit replaced by another, but
he has not received any encouragement
from the department.
die made a trip to Washington a few days
ago for the purpose of making some ar
rangements If possible, but he did not
(find on investigation that it would be any
use making any further special effort. It
is a fact, however, that he was told that
Macon would receive the consideration of
the department in the event of any change
being made.
ODD FELLOWS IN
GOOD CONDITION.
Report of Grand Lodge Pro
ceedings Shows Satisfac
tory State of Affairs.
Grand Secretary John G. Deitz,, of the
Grand Lodge of tlte Independent Order of
Odd Follows has Just received from the
press the full report of the proceedings of
the Grand Ixidge which held its meeting
in Sax annali in May.
Tile report shows a most satisfactory
condition of affairs in the order as may the
judged from the following taken from the
report of 1 lie grand representatives:
“When we consider the depression in all
business affairs that lias stalked like a
hideous nightmare over the land for the
lust few years, the increase in membership
has been remarkable and should ibe ex
tremely gratifying. Secret fraternities are
very sensitive to the effect of 'hard times,’
and that during the past year, this Order
did withstand the heavy drain of suspen
sions which it suffered, and showed a net
gain of over 6,000, proves the strong hold
Odd fellowship has upon the w<tld, ai|l
it augurs a bright prospect for the future.
“The following is a brief statement of
the numerical strength of the Order:
Grand Lodges 56
Subordinate Lodges 11,145
Initiated last year 60,150
Present membership 806,055
Increase for last year 6,070
Revenue for subordinate lodges
for last year $7,570,025 98
Paid out for relief 3.067.966 SI
"It is interesting to note the healthful
tend, uey in he subordinate lodges to own
their buildings There is an activity in
this direction all over the land.
In Georgia forty-eight lodges own their
buildings or an interest in them, and the
value of these buildings is $138,680.
"This commendable spirit should be
stimulated, and encouraged. Every lodge
in Georgia should own its hall. We trust
the day will soon come when this happy
condition will be realized.
"The growth of the Rebekah degree, is
as gratifying as it is remarkable.
1 has been but a few years, when this
branch of the Order was but weak and de
pendent auxiliary of the Order. Now it is
J™’’ ae,ive a powerful aid to Odd
bidowship. Wherever the Rebekah degree
flourishes Odd fellowship is strongest.
\ new and biautiful ceremony was
adopted at the List session of the Sover
eign Grand Ixidge for this degree.”
GEORGIA SOLDIERS TO VOTE.
Commissioners Will Be Sent 10 the Fields to
Receive Their Ballots,
There is much speculation as to how the
■Georgia soldiers who are now in the field
will be allowed to vote in the approaching
state election.
The election for governor and state house
officers will occur in about two months
and the governor is already considering a
way by which the soldiers will be allowed
to vote. The governor, who is now at Tate
Springs, will probably adopt the following
plan: 5
The citizens of the state will probably be
asked to donate enough money to defray
the expenses of the election in the field and
then wait for reimbursements bv the leg
islature.
If this plan is adopted no extra session
of the legislature will be called to make
an appropriation, but those citizens who
come to the aid of the governor will be re
paid by the legislature upon its reconven
ing
Commissioners will be appointed by the
governor to visit each camp and receive the
vote of the soldiers.

HEALTH OF MACON
Only 28 Deaths Last Month Over 43 in
1897 —No Contagious Diseases.
The health of Macon was never better.
This is shown by the mortuary report for
the month of July. It will be seen that
less deaths have occurred In the past
month than in any other month during
the year. The following is the complete
report:
DEATHS.
White males 5
White females 4
Total 14
Colored males 4
Colored females 10
Total 14
Grand total 28
It will be seen that out of the twenty
eight deaths nineteen were females. This
'a a remarkable record and shows a won
derful Improvement in the general health
of the city, in July 1897, forty-three
deaths occurred. Macon Is wonderfully
healthy for this season of the year.
No contagious diseases have been re
ported so far. This Is a good record for
the sanitary department, who have taken
extra precautions this year to keep the city
clean and free from filth.
There were fifty-three births in the city !
luring last month. Macon is becoming
famous for healthiness as was shown by ,
the regiment of immunes who were camp- i
ed here. Out of the 10,20 men who were ;
here for six weeks not a one died and none ;
■were so sick that they had to remain in j
the hospital over a week at a time.
HAS NEW IDEAS
FOR CARNIVAL.
Bridges Smith Investigated
New Features While
in the North.
GREAT ELECTRIC DISPLAY
Might be Used as One of the Feat
ures—He Will Present His
Ideas to the Committee.
City Clerk Bridges Smith returned Sat
urday night from Detroit, where he had
been to attend the convention of clerks
and mayors of the United States.
Mr. Smith reports an excellent time and
says that while on his trip he took espe
cial pains to investigate and to find out
some new features for the Macon Carnival.
He says that he ifoixnd several ideas, which
would be appropriate for the Carnival and
which he will lay beforwthe Carnival com
mittee at their next session.
“I found,” he said “several new ideas
relating scenic and spectacular effects
that have never been introduced in Macon,
and which coubd be easily carried out
here. We could easily use electricity to
illuminate some of the floats and could
utilize the river in scenic illuminations;
"I would, sugest that the Carnival com
mittee have a scenic illumination consist
ing of tfio court of arms of Georgia and a
Confederate and (United .States flag, placed,
on the opposite bank of the river. This
1 think would make a beautiful scene.
The flags could be lighted with the red,
white and blue .lights and would have the
appearance of a. brilliantly illuminated
flag.'*
These details will be fully discussed by
Mr. Smith and the committee will proba
bly be adapted. They show up wbat cal
be done with electricity and would, be
splendid features for the Carnival.
Mr. Smith says that there were 1,500
> delegates at the convention and that the
convention was one of valuable informa
tion and pleasure. He will make a report
of the proceedings of the convention to the
council at the meeting tomorrow night.
Mr. Smith says that after all of his
travels he is glad to get back to Macon
again.
LEGISLATIVE NEEDED.
Decision of a Washington Judge Brings Mat
ter Up in Georgia.
From the Savannah Morning News.
In the United States court at Tacoma,
'Wash., this week the judge ordered a jury
■to render 'a verdict against a life insurance
company for the full amount of a policy
with costs. The company refused to pay
(the policy, claiming that the holder had let
his insurance lapse. The court held that
an insurance company, before it could de
clare a forfeiture of a policy for the non
payment of a premium, must send the
policy holder a notice stating how much
is due, when it is due, and where it is
payable, and the notice must be sent sixty
■days or more before the due date of the
premium.
An agent representing one of the largest
companies in the country was asked
whether this was the general interpreta
tion.
“This decision,” he said, “is probably
based on a special insurance law of Wash
ington. Some other states have laws re
quiring the companies to send notice to
their policy holders of the approach of a
due payment of a premium, and in case
of a contest, require the company to prove
that such notice was sent. In New York
there is such a law. As a result, when a
man who has insured in Georgia moves
away to New York, the company requires
us to notify the New York home office,
-and tn addition to our sending a notice
about the premium coming due, the home
office also sends one, making assurance
doubly sure. Other states, to some extent,
have similar provisions, but there is no
such a law in Georgia. We are not compell
ed here to send notice to policy holders, al
though, as a matter of business and of ac
modation, we always do so. It is optional
with us, though, whether we go to this
trouble or not. Os course, it is good poli
cy to keep policies alive, and we always
show every grace possible. Personally, I
believe It would be a good idea for Georgia
to have some legislation covering this point
and some others. This state is deficient in
legislation on insurance matters. If the
matter were approached carefully by men
who are in position to know what is best
and most needed some action might be of
much value to all concerned.

IN BANKRUPTCY CASES
Judge Speer Has Passed a Rule Io Govern
Cases.
Judge Speer has issued the fol’owing
rules to govern the eases brought before
referees in his court:
Ordered that the proceeding in bankrupt
cy be directed as closely as practicable to
the rules for the United States court for
the Southern District of Georgia until the
adoption of rules as authorized by the
statute.
It is evident from this that Judge Speer
will take the position that the law is oper
ative and that it is proper to file the peti
tions at once without waiting for the order
of the supreme court making the rules to
govern the conduct of these cases.
MACON NEWS MONDAY EVENING, AUGUST 8 1898
HARD AT WORK.
Carnival Committees Working on Every
Branch of Entertainment.
Miss Martha Johnston, the queen of the
Macon day. has not yet made her selec
tions of ladies in waiting but they will be
announced in a few days.
The for the Carnival, now
less than tio uspuths away, have assumed
a most business-like air and all the com
mittees are hard at work. Mr. Pinkston,
who has commenced the building of the
floats and has his place for work at Cen
tral City park, has already four of the
I great hulls of the floats ready and is rush
ing his work with a large force of hands.
■ln a few weeks this work of building the
floats will be an attractive feature of the
preparations as they will be by far the
finest things of the kind that have ever
been seen in this state.
The drummers of Maeon are going to
work m earnest for the Carnival. They
will organize for the purpose of advertis
ing the four days of fun and frolic when
Macon is to be turned loose and her doojs
are to be thrown open to the whole world.
The fact that the war is over has added
very considerably to the confidence of the
business community in the success of the
undertaking and the finance committee is
meeting with a most liberal response in
the canvass, that is being made.
LIBRARY CATALOGUE
Will Be Prepared by the Directors for Sub
scribers.
The directors of the Macon Library As
sociation have decided to issue a
of the Library containing a list of all
books.
'lt is proposed to distribute the catalogue
throughout the city free of charge so that
the Library may be advertised as exten
sively as possible. ‘
Mr. W. (C. Jones will solicit advertising
for the catalogue and it is proposed to get
as many advertisements from the mer
chants as possible. It is proposed to have
the catalogue so arranged as to have one
page of advertisements and one page with
the list of books. This will make the ad
vertisements show up well and as the cata
logues will be distributed throughout the
city ,it will prove a splendid advertisement
medium.
Work will be commenced on the cata
logue at once and it will probably be ready
for the public in about sixty days.
MR. HICKS’ CONDITION
Physicians Think He Has Good Chance of
t Recovery.
Mr. J. R. Hicks, the prominent stable
man who was trampled on by a horse Sat
urday morning, is very much improved.
He was seriously injured Saturady, and
■for a while his life was despaired of. He
bled from the nose and ears and it was
thought for some time that he would die.
He is very much improved today, however,
and the doctors think that he will recover,
although he is not yet out of danger.
