B OFFERtO PRESIDED — Os the College at One Time But He j Refused It Was a Very Mod est Man Indeed. The a: nouncement of the death of : R.if,i, i M t.'colm Johnston brings sorrow , to l .s thousands of admirers all over the country, b'i. especially to all Georgians, ■ because of- achievements as a Georgian I in the republic of letters. Although ue Colonel has lived in Bal -1 timore for many years, honors were ten dered him in Georgia which might well j hav. ah , . I hirn to remain here. Rev. i Ii ivid E. Butlt r. who was ever and ardent . worker for Mercer Univ, rsity, says that I Colonel John.-ton was once elected presi dent of tin 1 niversity, and so informed by j a conHnitt. e for that purpose. When found jhe blus h. 1 1 ke a maiden as he spoke of the , high honor and responsibiity of such a trust, ai.d. despite much importunity by the trus'tes h> de dined the office. The Col onel, along with Dr. B. F. Tharp, of Perry, and Dr. A. R. Welborn, of Atlanta, gradua ted at Mercer in 1841, and composed the first graduating class. The trustees thus had every opportunity to know his worth and fitness for the presidency. By three universities the degree of LL.D, has bei n conferred on his name, one of them being the University of Georgia, in whose faculty for a while he was profes sor of belles letters. Colonel Johnston has written "A His tory of English Literature,” ‘‘Life of Alex ander H. Stephens,” “Dukesboro Tales,” "Old Mark Langston,” ‘‘Two Grey Tour ists,” ‘‘Mr. Absalom Blllingslea and Othet Georgia Folk,” ‘‘Widow Guthrie,” “The Primes and Their Neighbors,” “Studies— Literary and Social,” "Mr. Billy Downs and His Likes,” “Little Ike Templin and Other Stories,” “Lectures on English. French and Spanish Literature,” “Old Times in Middle Georgia,” “Ogeecfoee Cross Firings." Any Georgian who has failed to read the Colonel's faithful and pleasing portrayals of “persons and things,” as they were in the days of our fathers, has denied himself a source of pleasure and profit, the denial of which is not less than criminal negli gence. FOOL QUESTIONS By “Cheerful Idiots" -A Man Falls and is Asked if He Fell. “Singular what fool qu-’-tHons people get in the 'ab’.t of isking, ’ remarked a chronic grumbler to x News reporter. “A little while ago a man stepped on a banana skin hr something on Thirl street and sat down bard enough to jar all the (tilings out of his upper teeth. A cheerful idiot risked up and said: ‘Heilo? had* a fall did you?’ Wonder if he thought the man had a hair cut or a buggy ride? But that's nothing. I frequently visit East Macon and I never t ike the street oar without encountering some prize donkey who says: “How d’do. Smith; going for a ride? I got mad tho other day and did the trodden worm act. ‘No, sir,’ I said, firmly; I am not going to take a ride. I am going to take a balloon. I am going exactly to fly, after which I propose to blow her up and fly to Porto Rico.’ The donkey went along talking to himself and sinm told several of my friends that 1 was crazy as a bed bug.” MOZLEY'S LEMON ELIXIR. \ Pleasant Lemon Drink--Regulates the Liver, Stomach, Bowels and Kidneys.

E. Butler, of pack train No. 3. writing from Santiago de Cuba, on July 23d, says: “We all had diarrhoea in more or less j violent form, and when we landed we had i no time to see a doctor, for it was a cose ! 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 I able to keep at work and keep our health; ‘ in fact, I sincerely believe at one critical time this medicine was the indirect eav i iour of our army, for if the packers had ■ been unable to work there would have i been no way of getting supplies to the j front. There were no roads that a wagon i train could use.. My comrade and myself had the good fortune to lay in a supply of this medicine for our pack train before . j we left Tampa, and I know in four cases ' it saved life.” The above letter was written to he man u.a. turers of this medicine, the Chamber lain Medicine Co., Des Moines, lowa.

IN THE ELEVENTH. • Hanson and Wilkinson in Wrightsville Yes terday. Wrightsville, Ga., Sept. 23. —-Wilkinson and Hanson spoke at this place yesterday. The former only made a short speech of Twentv minutes, in which he devoted his time to attacking Brantley, the Democratic party and the Atlanta Constitution. He tried to persuade the people that Brantley was not an advocate of free silver and even intimated that he himself was a free sil ver! te, by saying that he had voted for M 1- ikln previously, was a silver man. He attacked the Constitution vigorously, saying that it had done more to corrupt the politics of the state than any other one thing. He did not deny what It said in reference to the letter he was reported to have published, further than that the Constitution had fold it and the Constitu tion could not tell the truth. He said very little about fusion. Wilkinson was followed by Hanson, who made a very lengthy speech. He directed his attack mainly on Democracy, saying the Democratic party had no principles to which it could adhere. He made the asser tion that the Democratic party W'as the cause of the unfair means used at the polls and endeavored to lay everything corrupt and objectionable in politics at its door. He said the circulars had been written anl sent to the negroes all over the state ask ing them to vote the Democratic ticket, be cause the governor had pardoned a negro accused of assault. “I have a great many 'riends in the Democratic party,” said he, “and the only fault I can find is that they belong to that party.” Dating the course of his speech he made ; hi« remark: “The Democratic party had been begging the people to give them a chance for a long time and the only man that they got in for a period of forty years was Cleve land, and when he got elected he didn’t do anything that benefited the government.” He then proceeded to attack Cleveland's administration. He also said that the Democrats had stolen a part of the Pop list platform. There was a great deal of enthusiasm among the negroes. ; /J On holidays in I?ng‘- - < land two parties of . / 1® ° nien or boys will fre- ro". f l uent 'y ff et hold of opposite ends of a z ' WW rope and pull on i*. as a test °f the / strength of the two ' / parties. They call it ' the “tug of war.’’ Many a. hardworking man and woman in each day’s toil, is pulling a “tug of war” with death for an antagonist. They fail to take proper care of their health. When they suffer from indigestion or a slight bilious attack they “wearit out.” After a while these disorders wear unt the reckless man or woman and the result is consumption, malaria, rheumatism, or some blood or skin disease. Dr. Pierce’s Com mon Sense Medical Adviser tells all about these diseases. It is free to all. Dr. Pieice’s Golden Medical Discovery cures all the maladies named. It cures the cause. It makes the appetite hearty, the digestion perfect, the liver active and the blood pure. It is the great blood-maker, flesh builder and neive tonic.

Z. Powers, Esq., of Erin Shades, Henrico Co., Va. “My doctor came and pro nounced it rheumatism. He gave me a prescrip tion but I got no better, but worse. I purchased a bottle of Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery from mv druggist and commenced to use it. I began to improve at once and got well. Now I am in perfect health, —no pain, no rheumatism."

N<Z z b We Have Wailed A week or two before directing your attention to our New Store. In the first place, our street has been torn up and we have not been easy of access. In the next place, our stock was not in place, and we were really not in shape to give you an adequate idea of what our New Store is like. But you may take our word for it that we are ready now. Ready with the largest, most varied and best selected stock we have ever handled, and, of course, this is saying all there is to be said. Like Barnum, we have searched the earth, so to speak, in order that we might miss nothing that you would want to see or possess. We have not been all over the earth to do this, but we did spend some time in New York, inspecting and select ing what the world has to offer of goods in our line—and New York is a world in itself. We have bought liberally, some would say lavishly, because we ex pect liberal buying. We have not been deterred by 4 cent cotton, be cause the cheaper the cotton the more closely people search for bargains. And this sort of searching brings them right to us. People want Crockery, Tinware, Household Goods, Notions, etc., etc., for less money now than they ever expected to get them for before. We kept this fact well in mind while buying, and we don’t believe we neg lected an opportunity to get bargains. In proportion, and even more, as we benefited by close buying we pro pose to give you the benefit of close selling. We quote no prices today. This is merely our fall announcement. It is merely the introductory speech to the eloquent bargain talks that are to come later. We can prove every statement; we will make good every promise. If we can’t save you money, if we don’t even amaze you with the beauty of our goods and the price, we don’t ex pect your trade. You are cordially invited to come at once and inspect our handsome stock. We think our 5 and 10 cent counters will prove a revelation to you. “oS THE FRIR'STDRE " & Gherrot. 111 U 1 ° 1 Ul < lJ CHeny St. turn I lil'l I ILL I R. sjz 3
