Public interest is already aroused and
the game will, no doubt, be attended by
a tremendous crowd. The Macon team will

LANGUAGE OF PHILIPPINES
As It is Spoken it is Unlike Any Other in the
World.
Manila, via Hong Kong, July 15. —The
tongue spoken by all but a few of the
dwellers of the Philippine Archipelago has
been the subject of a great deal of curious
speculation as well as scientific research.
Conservative philology and ethnology as
cribe to the language and to the untold
millions of men and women who use it an
origin almost undoubtedly Malayan.
The language of the archipelago divides
into innumerable local dialects, of which
vocabularies about thirty-five have been
written down.
Every dialect is dim with an infinity of
idioms, and the technical and pet words
of Mussulman and Christian propagandists,
Japanese and Chinese castaways, Negrito
wanderers and Negrilla sweethearts. Celes
tial merchants and Spanish Dons have been
mixed as occasion offered.
Os these dialects the most Important is
the Tagaloc. It is spoke?, by 1.500.000 Ta- 1
gals in Luzon and the adjacent islands.
Ten thousand girls have been often heard
chattering Tagaloc all at on.-e in a Manila
tobacco factory.
The word tagal means a native, tagala,
a native woman; zagala, a lady; dagala, a
gifl; bahaque, a native dress, to wear
which is to be a native. Luzon is eaid to
be from losong, a prim'tive rice mill, kept
In every house. Cavite is Cavit, the
"hook.” and not from the Latin cave, "be
ware." Manila, which has given name to
a valuable textile fibre, and in some places
to th? peanut, was manilad. "the place of
tne n lad,’ a shrub growing wild among
the mangroves.
The natives, a musical and poetical peo
ple. are much given to the Intoning of ex
temporaneous verses, and their Improvisa
tions are often upon the gravest theme®.
There is a body of poetry consisting
largely of lyrics, wedding songs, roman
zas. ballads and ditties of all kinds. These
are all set to native music, wierd and fas
cinating melodies that are a flat Insult to
Western ideas of tune
THE BEST REMEDY FOR FLUX.
Mr. John Mathias, a well known stock

CHAMBER WILL
MOVE AGAIN.
Board of Directors of the
Chamber of Commerce
Will Meet.
CHERRY STREET REVIVIFIED.
——
The Street Will Assume'lts Erst
while Busy Appearance—Stores
Being Rented.
The Chamber of Commerce directors held
their regular meeting today. The principal
matter before them is that of another move
for the quarters of the Chamber which will
take place some time soon.
The present quarters have been rented
to the Southern Phosphate Company, which
will have elegant offices arranged in the
building. The chamber will not move off
the ground floor and will In all probability
occupy one of the vacant stores on the
same street only a short distance away.
The coming fall is going to bring about
e. considerable change in the appearance of
Cherry street between Third and Fourth
streets, which used to be the Wall street
of Macon. The Macon News will immedi
ately occupy its old home in what is known
as the Park building, on Cherry street,
and which was built for a newspaper.
Several other of the stores on this street
which have so long been vacant will, it is
understood, be occupied by the first of Oc
tober. This speaks well for Macon. Too
many stores have been vacant, for the last
few years, but the real estate men say
that they can already feel the improvemnt
that is bound to come.
Everyone is preparing for a good fall
business and the prospect is that they will
not be disappointed.

MACON MUCH,
The Reported Independence
®of the Georgia Railroad
Entering Macon.
The strong probability that the Georgia
Railroad under the lease of the Louisville
and Nashville Railroad will come into Ma
con on its own track has caused a consid
erable amount of comment in business cir
cles and the business men generaly say
that it will be .a great thing for the city, as
It will bring about a competition in rates
which they say does not now exist in real
ity, while it is claimed by the roads that
the competition is as keen as it ever was,
if not more keen than it was before the
reorganization of the roads running into
the city.
At present the Georgia road runs into the
city over the tracks of rhe Central and uses
the same depot facilities. The latter is, it
is said, will not be changed as it is the in
tention of all the roads to run into the
same depot in the near future.
But the independent line into Macon by
the Georgia is another thing, and will cer
tainly bring abotrt a fight, it is said, and
this itself is not denied by the local rail
road men. It is an old story, but since the
ownership of the lease of this road was
confirmed the matter has laid dormant un
til it was charged that the Louisville and
Nashville made agreements with the Cen
tral conditioned on no heavy fight being
made over the lease.
It is a fact now, however, that the Louis
ville and Nashville has approached the
Chamber of Commerce on the subject and
that a committee is considering the matter
and that the city council is too consider
ing a proposition on the same line.
LIBRARY WILL
FATHERJFOOTBALL
Macon Football learn Will
Play for Benefit of the
Library.
The Macon football team, which was or
ganized a few weeks ago will play this
season under the auspices of the Macon Li
brary Athletic Association.
The library directors have decided to
organize an Athletic Association and any
member of the library can join it. It is
proposed to put a football team in the
field this season and all the money which
is derived from the games will go to the
library fund.
The team, which was organized with Mr.
■Holt Virgin* manager, has decided to be
come members of the library and will go
on the gridiron for the benefit of that in
stitution.
The team has probably no equal in the
state, as far as weight is concerned, and it
also has some snappy players, who have
faced the dangers of the gridiron for many
seasons.
The manager has already arranged games
for this season and Columbus will be the .
first visiting team that will appear here. I
The date set for the game is October 14th, ■
during the carnival, and it will, no doubt,
draw a large crowd.
The University of Georgia will come next
on October 20th. It is expected that the
largest crowd of the season will attend this
game, as it will be the first time that
Georgia has appeared here in football.
"Georgia” will have a splendid team this
season and so will Macon. The Macon
team will average fully 175 pounds. It is
not know nytt how the team will line up
for the season, but it is probable that it
will be as follows:
Glover, right half back: H. Virgin, cen
ter rush: Taylor, right guard; Ruan. left
tackle. Mansfield, right tackle; Virgin, left
guard, Nisbett. right end; Winn, left end;
Simmons, full back: Harris, left half back:
Menard, quarter back. Stetson and Cor
bin. substitutes.
It is probable that Mr. Gordon Saussy,
of Cornell, who coached Barnesville and
Mercer last year, will be engaged to coach
the Macon team this fall.
The Macon Library Assoeiat'or. intends
having a good team, and only the best
players will be on it. The team will begin
practice in two weeks and will be in splen
did share when the season opens.
The suits, which were ordered some time
ago. will be brought into use in a few
days.
The first practice will be si night as it
is cooler than at any other time.
A BABY SHOW
Will Be Given in Vineville this Afternoon at
Mrs. Clisby’s.
A baby show will be given this after
noon in Vineville for the benefit of the •
charity department of the Epworth League '
The show will be given on the lawn of
Mre. Clisby. at 5 o’clock.
The entrance fee for the babies will be '
15 cents. No baby over three years of age
can enter the contest.
No admission will be charged for the !
show. Refreshments will be served to the i
audience. The show promises to be inter
esting as many of the ’mammas" of Macon
and Vineville have entered their pets and
each one is sure of winning the prize.
MACON NEWS TUESDAY EVENING. AUGUST g iBgS
BIG FAIR AT DUBLIN
Will Be Opened by the Colored People Next
Month.
Next month an agricultural fair will be
given at Dublin by the colored people of
Laurens. Johnson and Wilkinson counties.
The management expects to make the af
fair a great success and in every way
creditable to the.-jcatwt-<F people of the
three counties parttvpa fcg By special
invitation ex-Can£r«B6tnan Jeff Long, col
ored, of Macon, will deliver the opening
1 address. He will speak on the general
progress, prosperity, material and educa
tional development of the negro race. His
address will be entirely non-political. He
will present some interesting figures show
ing the remarkable advance the negro has
I made on educational and industrial lines
I and how well many of them are measuring
up to the standard of true citizenship. Jeff
Long Is one of the most intelligent and
conservative colored men in the state and
the management of the fair to be held at
Dublin could not have selected a colored
man. in Georgia who will better meet the
requirements expected of the orator of the
occasion Long represented the Macon dis
trict in congress during the days of recon
struction.
PAI NF’S GREAT
BATTLE PIECES.
As They Will Be Shown Dur
ing the Macon Diamond
Jubilee.
Payne’s great fireworks reproduction of
the incidents of the war will be something
new iu fireworks and while the whole four
days of the carnival will be full of good
things this will probably be ’the strongest
attraction of the period.
Previous to the presentation of the fall
of Manila, innumerable high-class special
ties will be shown. Notable among them
will be the exhibition of the Donnizettls,
the celebrated acrobats. Their fame is
world-wide. They rank among the very
first in their line of work. They have been
in training for this occasion for weeks,
’Following them will be another thrilling
act. It will be by Paul AVeitzman, the
well known tight rope walker. On a slack
wire at an altitude of more than 100 feet
he will walk across the lake. Then he will
envelope himself in a lurid sheet of flame,
becoming a veritable pillow of fire while
performing his feat. Weitzman is really a
wonder. He is the only tight rope walker
in the world who can do his act while sky
rockets and sheets of flame are enveloping
him. .
The next act is a funny scene by Froe
bal &- Ruge, the equaiibrlsts. They will
perform on a trapeze 100 feet in the air.
This should be an exciting sight.
Then come Gay and Rose, the two cele
brated high distance divers. From a pole
160 feet they dive into the lake. During
their descent they turn a series of somer
saults, a Spanish flag suddenly becomes a
mass of flames, and when they come up out
of the water they whirl aloft a new Amer
ican flag. This is a signal for a grand pa
triotic outburst. The whole amphitheater
fairly shakes with the enthusiasm of tha
people. After this comes the “Fall of Ma
nila.”
Folowing this presentation Pain has ar
range” a number of new and attractive
aerial bombs. There will be Dewey bombs,
Dewey pictures, Philippine crackers and a
host, of other things.
The national bomb will explode, giving
out it’s colors of red, white and blue, and
the “eagle scream rockets” will produce in
the air a sound similar to the cry of the
national bird. Then there will come the
booming of Manila battles, the firing of
the national salute, followed by bombs and
streamer rockets.
Every device know nto the genius of Pain
will be utilized to honor the heroes of Cu
ban battle fields and the men of the Maine.
This is only a brief summary of what
will take place. It would be Impossible to
convey in words the grim spectacle of na
val warfare which will be given.

ANOTHER BALE
Os Cotton Was Received Yesterday by May
er and Watts.
The second bale of cotton received In
Macon this season was shipped to Mayer &
Watts, the warehousemen, from Vienna,
where the bale was brought several days
■ago.
The bale weighed 400 pounds and is
classed as good middling.
Cotton will begin to eome iu rapidly In
the next few days, as some of the field*
around Macon are already white and the
ginners are putting their plants in order.
All of the farmers in this section have
laid by their cotton and are waiting for It
to open. The prevailing opinion is that
cotton will bring a low price this year.
But still the farmers have some hope of
cotton bringing a higher price as they say
the crop will be shorter this year.
Complaints are coming in from the far
mers about the condition of the cotton
in the section around ‘Macon.
It seems that the staple has had entirely
too much rain and there is now fear that
a strong sun will do great damage. They
say that the crop has run too much to
weed and that the bottom crop will not ma
terialize, while the middle crop is in dan
ger.
The farmers coming into Macon say they
have never seen the weed so big and that
this is a bad indicaitlon for a large crop.
But even if a part of the crop is lost the
chances are that it will be all the better
for the general run of the farmers. All
other crops are in splendid condition.

CUBAN CHIEFS.
Believed that They Would
Sell to Spain if Dis
appointed.
Washington, August 9. —Major General
S. B. M Young, who commanded the Sec
ond Brigade under General Wheeler at the
battle of Santiago, is in Washington.
He said: "The Cubans are no more ca
pable of self-government than the savages
of Africa. The average Cuban is of a
very low order of mankind He is a mixture
of Spanish. Indian and negro, and he in
herits the bad qualities of all.
"The United States cannot afford to turn
the island of Cuba over to the Cubans.
They would loot everything in sight and
then start in and rob one another. Most of
the leaders of the so-called Cuban army are
adventurers, ready to sacrifice everybody
and everything to further their own per
sonal ends. It is my opinion that few of
them would hesitate to sell out to the
Spaniards if fully convinced that the .
United States is not going to deliver the
island over to them.
"I believe the Spaniards should not only
be driven out of Cuba, but off the Western
hemisphere. The cause for which we are
fighting is all right, but we should never
turn that beautiful and rich island over to
a lot of degenerates who are not capable of
self-government."

jA LITTLE LESSON
| IN DISCOUNTS.
Don’t be carried away by a difference in figures. Figures can easily deceive
you uuless you understand them. Let us speak a word to you about Discounts,
p Even a 40 per cent Eiscount at some places does not mean as much as 20
I per cent at The Fair. The reason is plain : The difference in our usual
profit was more than 20 per ceut to begin with. For instance, if we are in the
habit of making an average profit of only 10 per cent on our goods (and we give
you our word it will not exceed this figure), while another house makes at aver
age profit of 40 per cent, it stands to reason that a 20 per Cent Discount at
The Fair is worth twice as much as a 40 per cent Discount at the
other places.
Here is the Way It Figures Out:
