TWO LIEUTENANTS HAVEJSIGNEO Hazlehurst and Snowden, of the First Regiment, Have Returned Home. CARNES MA! GET A PLACE With First Regiment if He Wants It—Two Popular Officers Throw Up Military Careers. Second Lieutenant Hazlehurst, of the Macon Volunteers, and Lieutenant George Snowden, of the Macon Guards, have re signed their commissions and will return to their business. It is not yet known who will be appoint ed to fill the vacancies, but It is whispered that Mr. Charlie Carnes, who was Captain Hunter’s predecessor in command of the Macon Volunteers, will be appointed to fill one of the vacancies. Thia rumor can not be confirmed but aa no positive denial la given out there ia every probability in the world that It is true. Captain Carnes, it is known, has been making a strong effort for a long time to get a commission it being his purpose to adopt the army as a life profession. He is a thoroughly posted military man nad will make a most excellent officer. The Macon Volunteers, and in fact the whole of the First regiment deeply regret the loss of Lieutenant Hazlehurst, who has probably been the most popular officer in the regiment. He has been the Macon representative of Inman. Swan A Co. for some time and hie house was extremely anxious to secure his servicee again tov this m.ason. He took the matter under most serious consideration and In view of the probable mustering out of the whole regiment in the near future he decided to return to civil life. Mr George Bnowden le also regarded as one of the most valuable young cotton men In this section and the Inducements of fered to him to return to his business were very strong indeed. He will be greatly missed by the officers and members so his company , CITY OF MACON SAILED SATURDAY. She Carried a Good Cargo— Compefltlbfl Between Ma con and Hawkinsville. The City of M<s,x>n left for Brunswick Saturday aftertom at 4 o’clock. The boat had on' t'oard a large cargo and the captain expects to take on a large num ber of barrels of naval stores between here and Brunswick. The boat did not remain In the city long as there is a great deal of competition be tween the Macon steamer and the Haw kinsville boats and the own.?ns were anxi ous tnat the l»aic get under way a® sooo us passible. Following were the shippers on the return trip. Cox & Obappel, Dunlap Hardware Co., Willingham Plow Co., Adams Bros & Co., Payne & Willingham, 8. R. Jacques & Tinsley Co. Capt. Hathaway expects to get back to Macon by next Tuesday. He said Satur day that he thought that he would reach Brunswick Wednesday and that he would leave as soon as be could get his cargo. The owners of the boat are very well pleased with the last trip and say that every trip that the boat makes will show that a line of boats are necessary between here and the coast. The boat has already lowered the freight rates between here and 'Brunswick, and if there were other boats it would proba'bly cause the rates to be made lower than they are now. AMENDMENT - TO CONSTITUTION. Providing for the Election of Judges of Superior Court IWill Come Up. At the next state election the people will decide whether or not they shall In future elect the judges of the sperior court and the soli cl tore general. Pretty much everybody is aware of this fact in a general sort of away, but there are little details with which they are not acquainted. It Is not a new thing for Georgians to elect judges and solicitors, for the plan was tried during the latter years of th© war, and if an action of the majority goes to prove anything, the custom was not a good one, said « prominent lawyer yester day. At any rate, just after the war, Georgia decided that she would stop the practice, and so there was a constitutional amend' ent providing for the appointment of these officers by the governor. And this custom prevailed for some years. After about a decade, however, the people seemed tired, or desired a change, and In 1877 there was another constitu tional amendment. Thia provided for the election by the legislature, and has con tinued up do the present time. It is juat the turning of the wheel, and we are get ting back to where we were before. Persona familiar with the practical his tory of the state are acquainted with the fiact that several times before there was an effrot made to increase the numebr of supreme court Judges from three to six. Each time the effort was voted down, but, finally, ae we all know, the amendiaent to increase to six and that election should be so by popular vote, was carried. And *o the three new Judges were voted for. At the same time the ticket* will have printed on them, "For constitutional amendment,” “Against constitutional! amendment.” This will mean that the people will de ride whether or apt in the future they shall have Ln their power, or the privilege, whichever it is, of having a voice in the selection of the judges of the superior court and the solicitors general This con stitutional amendment was offered at the Hst session of the general assembly. Although it is possible that the amend ment will be passed before the time when the judges shall be elected by the legisla ture, it will not be operative. There are a great many people, both profeesior.al and laymen, who are opposed to the election of judges by the people, and who think that the present method is the safest oue. There are others who favor ft, and there are said to be good as arguments in favor of the amendment as there are against it. The most general opinion, seems to be that the amendment will carry. Rev. W. B. Coatley, of Btockbridge, Go., while attending to tris pastoral duties at Ellenwnod. that state, was attacked by cholera morbus. He says: ”By chance I happened to get hoM of a bottle of Chaxn berlaki’e GoiFc. Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, and I think it was the means of saving my life. It relieved me at once.” For B&le by H, J. Lamar A Soos, druggist*. MACON NEWS MONDAY EVENING, AUGUST 29 1896. ANOTHER SHIPMENT. Is Made Today by the International Broth erhood League.

The committee on water, gas and elec tric power, which was appointed by the Chamber of Commerce to Investigate the rktes on water, gas and electric power, will meet tomorrow afternoon at the Chamber of Commerce at 4 o’clock. The committee held a meeting last week tmt nothing definite was done owing to the lack of information about the rates in either cities. The necessary Information has been se cured, however, and Che committee Is go- to make a thorough investigation of the water, gas and electric power rates of Macon. The committee have already said that the rates were too high, but they have not y* taken any action on the matter. They Will probably meet the committee appoint ed by the Macon Gaslight and Water Co. ahd the committee from the city council ai their meeting tomorrow. It is not known yet what will be done, but it is thought that a satisfactory rate *IM be arranged. Kicks have been made about the water rates for the past two ybars, but no attention has been paid to them until about three weeeks ago. The Chamber of Commerce instructed the committee to give the matter a thor ough sifting and the committee seems de termined to do so. The following gentle then compose the committee: George A.

Moren, Ga., Aqg. 29.—The crops in this Section of the country are badly damaged by the rains which have fallen constantly for the past two months. The farmers very much worried over the prospects and many of them seem to think that their crop will be out off over half. The newspapers have been reporting good corn crops from all over the country, but around. Moran only a half crop will be made. The corn is rotting very fast and in a great many places has the dis ease known as "smut.” The fodder, which the farmers had piled was all ruined and that which is left on the stalk is in very ■bad condition and will not be fit for use If the rains continue. 801 l worms have infected the cotton in the last few days and they are raising great havoc. For awhile they only at tacked the blossoms, but now they are entering int othe grown bolls and are des troying them. The bolls, 'too, are rottip.g And the cotton which has opened is falling to the ground. Cation around here has Always taken on a large top crop about this time, but the rains and the boil worms wil perevent that this year. Old termers who have lived In this section for years say they have never seen such a Season as this before. One of the old citi zens of the place said yesterday: “I have lived here for forty years and never before have I seen such a season as this has been. I have seen dry seasons and wet keasons, but this is the longest siege of yaln that I have ever known.” The cotton has grown rapidly in the past two weeks and the weed is exceedingly high In eome fields and will average six feet, but there is nothing on it.. One farmer said yesterday that his whole crop was a complete failure, He said that his crop throughout would average about four bolls to the stalk and I am in doubt as to bow long they will remain there. The cane will be somewhat behind this year as the rains have caused it to bake on another growth. The pea crop Is finer this year than ever before and more peas will be made this year than In some yeans. The farmers who have Ipst their fod der are busy cutting hay, of which there is a fine crop. The watermelon and peach season is pver and those who have apple orchards will begin to gather next week, CALL FOR TICKETS.

AN OLD MAN ASSAULTED By Footpads Saturday Night —Was Badly Hurt. Mr. J. W. Hart, an old man, was as saulted by footpads near the reservoir on Foundry street Saturday night and was terribly beaten up. He was driving along in his buggy on his way home when he was atacked from behind. He was badly hurt about the head, and It seems as if his assailants used some blunt instrument in striking him. lit is thought that their purpose was robbery. Mr. Hart was taken o his home and physician was called in to dress his wounds. The police were notified of the assault and began work on the case at once, but no clue has ye»t been found. The robbers did not secure anything from Mr. Hart, as it seems that they were frighten ed off before they could complete their work.

Chairman Davis of the County Commissioners Has Some thing to Say. Mr. G. M. Davis, chairman of the board of county commissioners, and Mr. R. L. Henry went down to Savannah on Satur day night and spent yesterday in that city in a thorough inspection of the paving of the city. Mr. Davis was seen this morn ing by a News reporter and when asked about the asphalt he said: “While in Sa vannah I saw all kinds of pavements. They had the sand, shell, Augusta gravel belgian block, cobble stones, brick and asphalt. The asphalt beats anything I ever saw. 11 is smooth, and you can’t even hear the noise made by wagop wheels There is only one thing to say about asphalt and that is that it is perfect. The people there are all delighted with it. I talked with all kinds of people about it and everybody is well pleased with it. “If they ever pave oiie street here with asphalt the people would want nothing else. It is easily repaired and I noticed the main thoroughfare which has been paved with asphalt for seven years and there |s not a break in It. Mr. Horne’s company has Drayton street payed with it and it is among the best streets there. “The other gentlemen who accompanied me are of the same opinion as myself and say that they think the asphalt pavement would be a great thing for Macon. As for myself I am highly pleased with it and would ‘like to see iMacon have several streets payed with asphalt.’’ The Savannah paying has now been in spected thoroughly by Messrs. Ben L. Jones, H. T. Powell, Marion Erwin, G. M. Davis, R. L. Henry and I. Hardeman. AH of these gentlemen have expressed themselves as delighted with the work tha has been done by the Southern Asphalt Company in that city and as a matter of fact they are wedl pleased with asphalt and are enthusiastic on the subject. It may be said that they will all favor asphalt should the question come to them for a vote. The opinion of thosewho have seen the asphalt should be enough to satisfy the general public on the subjec t. Mr. Horne said this morning. "Any others that may go do»n or want to comment on asphalt pavements ought not to judge our work without see ing it or condemn asphalt pavements on account of Inferior work of other compa nies.’’ SOLACE HAS ARRIVED.
