The Augusta Herald asks, seriously: ■'Van t church member handle dispensary liquor?” She can. A Washington wheelerwoman tried to drive a street ear oil the track the other day, ami now she is dead. Swainsboro Nows: Macon Diamond Jubi lee next month Is going to be a big thing. General Dee will probably be on hand and make an address. It is rumored in Atlanta, according to the Journal, that “the prohibition Wave is running so high in Southwest Georgia that even the cattle are going dry.” Tin yellow fever is making little head way and frost is expected very much ear lier than usual. There Is little danger, therefore, that there will be any wide spread epidemic. IM you remember Fitzhugh Lee’s mes sage to Blanco when he left Havana—that when ho returned it. would be at the head of an army’ He will fulfill the promise. Early In October he will go there at the head of the Seventh Army Cori>s. I T| . idill.i A Iver; ser The Maeon Diamond Jut»ll« Carnival will be hold on October 11, 12, 13 and 14.

Fort Calms Sentinel: Macon is wide aw xko and hustling tor the great Diamond Jubilee. She is playing for big game. Among the distinguished gentlemen who h.Ge been Invited to attend to be the guests of th Carnival Association during the debratlon are President McKinley, Lieutenant Hobson, General Wheeler, Ad miral Schley, Colonel Roos. velt, Congress man Bailey. Colonel W. J. Bryan, Governor Atkinson. Hon Alien D. Candler and oth ers. Governor Bloxham. of Florida, following the < x.>mpl< of his ptxdecessor. has called .a national conference of governors upon the state of the country, With special refer ence to the militia service, shore Is so doubt that then.' should be a recasting of the line of organization of the militia, says the Savannah News, and that much useful information will be eleci'tod by the pro posed Tampa conference. There seems to besom* thing hi the Florida climate which prompts the governors of the stats to note what the country needs, and call a confer ence to consider what shall be done about It. John Bright, the famous British states man, who, thirty-five years ago was a leader of British public opinion, in a speech at that time in the House of Com mons. made a remarkable prediction, the recollection of which is now revived. He was discussing national affairs, when sud denly stopping in his remarks. he changed the subject, and with great deliberation •aid: "Mr. Speaker, if our kinsfolk on the other side of the Atlantic settle their civil war satisfactorily and get back together In peace, in forty years there will not be a gun fired in the world without their con sent." Men are Just like hogs, however dis tasteful that may sound to hogs, says a writer in an exchange. When a hog gets an ea’ of corn every other hog will trot along behind him. and squeal and whine and beg and toady for a bite, but Just let the front hog get caught with his head fast in a crack and every son of a sow win Jump on him and tear him to pieces; just eo with men. As long as a man is pros perous and has money he can’t keep friends off with a baseball bat. The moment he is unfortunate and his wealth is gon® he is not only snubbed by his former friends, but they at once begin to do him all the harm possible When a man starts down grade the world steps aside and greases the track." The elections In Vermont and Maine serve but to increase the belief that this is a Democratic year and throughout the country there is Republican apathy, while the Democrats are active and hopeful. As former Congressman John M. Wiley says In a statement in yesterday's New York Journal: "When normally strong Republi can states like Maine and Vermont show weakness is shows the feeling existent ■throughout the country. The feeling is ev ident in this state. The change of the peo ple s attitude towards the national admin istration is marked. While I am not in clined to blame President McKinley. I am sure that political pressure brought to | bear upon him and his chiefs has caused the gravest scandals of the war.” Fitzhugh Lee Rediscovered. “Fitzhugh Lee rediscovered" is the Philadelphia Times' heading over some re marks concerning the good record made by General Lee as corps commander. That officer has undoubtedly made the best record of any of the generals in command of a camp. He fully deserves all the good things said of him. General Lee will have command of the American army sent to occupy Cuba. For that position no supe rior officer could be chosen The Time*’ remarks concerning b!m are of interest to Southerners. It says: "Since Alger went west, to grow up with the country, the war department has made a number of discoveries. One of these is that there is a person in the service named Fitzhugh I>.*e, who holds the commission of a major-general and is in command of a corps of volunteers in Florida, and that this corps is in excellent condition well organized, well drilled, well fed. and gen erally in good health and ready for the Held. "While all this rumpus has been going on. General Lee has been saying nothing nut quietly attending to his business. Jacksonville is not the most agreeable summer resort. Compared with Chick amauga, of example. It m.ght besupposed to be unhealthy. But Fitzhugh Lee seems to have had the old West Point prejudice in favor of educated military men for <=taff positions, and he got an efficient staff as signed to him at the beginning. As a re sult we have heard so little complaint from his corps that most people had for gotten its existence as completely as Mger apparently had, though the material he had to work with included some of the worst and the volunteer officers had as much to learn there as anywhere else. "It will be remembered that before Al ger left he issued an order for the muster out of one-half of the volunteers, selected upon no ascertainable system. It is this order that has brought the Seventh corps to mind, since it takes from It a number >1 r< giments just as they had been got into good serviceable condition for the ex ped: lon to Cuba on which they were ex pecting to embark with the approach of cold weather. Alger is not much on or ganiza ion, but for disorganizing he is the greatest secretary of war that ever has been known, and Lee could not expect to escape his devastating hand entirely. It Is not a part of the Alger plan that any man as competent s Fitzhugh Lee should Ih: given an opportunity for effective ser vice that would further overwhelm the p< ts of Michigan.” The Mahdi’s Tomb. I he Mahdi s tomb, which is mentioned as being partially demolished, is thus de scribed by Slatin Pasha: "In order to show his veneration for the Mahdi, the Khalifa decided to erect a monument to him, as is the custom in Egypt; but this he did rather to satisfy his own vanity than out of respect for his late master. A square building was erected some thirty feet high and thirty-six feet each way, and the stone for this construc tion, of which the walls were upwards of six feet thick, to be brought all the way from Khartoum. About this a hexagonal wall, fifteen feet high, was built, from which rose a dome forty feet high. On the corners of the main building were four smaller domes. This was called Kubbet el Mahdi (Mahdi’s Dome). It was fur nished with ten large arched windows and two doors, and in the hexagonal portion were six skylights. It was whitewashed all over and surrounded by a trellis work fence. The w'indows and doors were made by the workmen in the Khartoum arsenal; while directly beneath the dome and over the Mahdi’s grave a wooden sarcophagus was erected, covered with black cloth. On the sides of the walls candelabra were hung. While suspended by a long chain from the centre of the dome was an im mense chandelier taken from the govern ment palace at Khartoum. The sombre appearance of the inside of the building was relieved by some gaudy painting on the walls. . The plan of this building was devised by an old government official who had been formally employed as an architect; but, of course, public opinion dutifully attributed the design to the Khalifa.” When the Mahdi died of a complication of diseases aggravated by the results of the debauched and vicious life that he led, public belief among Dervishes in his di vine origin received a very rude shock, but what must, have been thought by his savage followers when they saw the in fidel’s terrible “lyddite” shells crash trough the roof of the very spot in which his sacred remains lie interred, and, burst ing inside, scatter ruin and destruction around them? * • Another Rebuke, Captain "Fighting Bob” Evans, of the lowa, was invited to speak at a recent 1 meeting in Poughkeepsie, N, Y., held in aid of the fund for the sick and wounded soldiers at Camp Wikoff. The captain said he had never made a speech before, but his maiden effort was one which should stir up our government to a fuller sense of its defenders and the employment of better methods and practices in their be half. Captain Evans said that while glad to do his share in furthering all humane and patriotic measures he could not help but' express regrets that such relief meetings were necessary. “Any government,” he said, “that is worth fighting for must as sist and help the brave men who left their families, which is really the hardest part of it —much harder than to go out and face Spanish bullets, which Is the easiest part of it. Probably In the years to come, if this Nation has learned its lesson or vwill ever learn it, such meetings will disap pear.” No Joint Protectorate. Germany's effort to Join with the United States in a joint protectorate of the Philip pine Islands will hardly find approval in the United States. The United States has had one experience with a Joint protecto rate. in which England and Germany formed the other Joints. Samoa was the subject of this mutual supervision, and the outcome of it was not attractive. When the United States tried to establish a coal ing station there, Germany objected, ami the matter is still the subject of inter national negotiations. The United States fails to see how Germany enters into the Philippine problem in any way, and the United States does not like Germany’s ef fort to force an entrance to it. If any one would have dared to predict five or six weeks ago that American war ships would be decorated with Spanish flags in honor of the birthday anniversary of a Spanish Princess, he would certainly have ben mobbed. Last Sunday Princess Mercedes, King Alfonso’s sister had her birthday, and the New Orleans and Cin cinnati. lying off San Juan, were lavishly adorned with the colors of Spain. Castilo mania may shortly replace Anglomania. Three hundred millions of dollars are now locked up in the National treasury and withdrawn from the uses of the people at a season of the year when money is most needed in active circulation. To a man up a tree it seems that some of this coin should be “where it will do the most good"—circulating among the people. Cubans are taking time by the forelock. They already have four different presiden tial tickets in the field. A Chicago girl turned burglar, and. as she might have expected, her feet gave her away. A man fell into the Chicago river the ; other day ami was smothered.

Nervy Man Too 1 * °oison Four Days Before We come Death Came. Kansas Cxty, Sept 19.—Fred Langsdorff died a horrible death near Armourdale, He commnU-J suicide by taking a drachm , of prussic acid in small quantiti-s covering . a period of four days, then opening the veins of his arm During this time he ata nothing and drank only a pint of river water. An ante-mortem statement of the suicide which was found in a little notebook be side the dead body, told how he had on Wednesday, September 7, between 2 and 3 o’clock in the afternoon, taken several grains of morphine and sat down under a I tree to await death. Thursday a notation tells of the suicide's I regret and wonder at the poison not tak i Ing effect, and of the increased doses he : took. A line or two on Friday repeats his I regret at his inability to kill himself and of more poison taken. On Saturday he has, he says, taken thirty grains of morphine and sixty grains of prussic acid, and this amount of poison having failed to do its work, he will open the veins of his arm I with a bookbinder's cutting tool, which he had. There the writing ended. When Langdorff’s body was found where it had lain for hours, everything indicated that he had gone through what his ghastly diary related. No cause for the act is known. A Narrow Escape. Thankful words written by Mrs. Ada E. Hart, of Groton, S. D. “Was taken with a bail cold which settled on my lungs; cough set in and finally terminated in consumption. Four doctors gave me up, saying I could only live a short time. I gave myself up to my savior, determined if I could not stay with my friends on earth J would meet my absent ones above. My husband was advised to get Dr. King’s New Discovery for consumption, coughs and colds. I gave it a trial, taking in all eight bottles. It has cured me, and, thank God, I am now a healthy woman.” Trial bottles free at H. J. Lamar & Sons’ drug store. Regular size, 50c and JI.

Their Untiring Efforts in Getting Ammu nition and Rations to the Front Saved the IX.y. P. B. Butler, of pack train No. 3, writing from Santiago de Cuba, on July 23d, says: . “We ail had diarrhoea in more or less violent form, and when we landed we had no time to see a doctor, for it was a case of rush and rush night and day to keep the troops supplied with ammunition and rations, but thanks to Chamberlain’s Colic Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, we were able to keep at work and keep our health; in fact, I sincerely believe at one critical time this medicine was the indirect sav iour of our army, for if the packers had been unable to work there would have been no way of getting supplies to the front. There were no roads that a wagon train could use.. My comrade and myself had the good fortune to lay in a supply of this medicine for our pack train before we left Tampa, and I know in four cases it saved life.” ’ The above letter was written to he man ufacturers of this medicine, the Chamber lain Medicine Co .

Although General Kitchener took his troops into what is regarded as a very un healthy climate, the sick list of his sol diers was never more than 5 per cent, and the fatalities were comparatively nothing. In our war most of the troops remained in the United States, and yet more died from the camp life at home than were killed in combat in Cuba. -I tL to A mao defend his ’ — honor with his life. .JS'/L What is more dishonor- X able than unnecessary failure? Thousands'of men make failures of life and die premature deaths, leaving w ives and children unprovided Jbr, because of their reckless neglect of health. No man can de good work or be successful in business who suffers from biliousness, di gestive and nervous disorders such as sick headache, giddiness, dizziness, drowsiness, cold chills, flushings of heat, shortness of breath, loss of appetite, fullness and swell ing after meals, wind and pain in the stom ach, costiveness, blotches on the skin, toss of sleep, disturbed sleep, frightful dreams and nervous and trembling sensations.
