DOWN TO WORK.
Attendance at the Schools is Good and
Everything in Good Order.
The schools of Macon and Bibb county
opened yesterday with the largest number
of pupils in attendance ever known. Many
new scholars apeared to enter upon the
work of the year. All of the children
seemed to be happy and anxious to begin
the work.
Many of the children had never been in
school before and seemed frightened, but
this was soon overcome. Professor Abbott
visited every school in the city yesterday
and got things in working order. All of
■the teachers were on haqjl and the work of
examining the new pupils began at once.
The attendance this year is the largest
that has ever been known in the schools,
and Professor Abbott is highly gratified at
the result. Many pupils appeared at the
schools without admission cards and it wax
necessary to turn them away. They did
not seem to understand that It was nec
essary to have cards of admission. It is
probable that over a hundred came with
out cards and when these secure them the
attendance will be largely increased.
Many of the classes are already over
crowded. The first year classes are the
ones that are erowdad most. ‘The county
schools have not been heard from yet, but
it is thought that the attendance in the
country will foe as large as evtT, if not
larger. •
All of the ney students have been vacci
nated and there has been no complaints.
Everything will be in working order by to
morrow and all of j-he scholars will get
down to work.
BIG ATTRACTION
DURING CARNIVAL.
Al G. Fields Great Minstrels
Will Hold Down Boards
at the Academy.
Speaking of Al Field’s Minstrel show,
•which will be in Macon during the Carni
val, the Atlanta Journal says that the show
is ptynaps the most elaborate minstrel pro
duction ever seen here and contains many
good feature*. The pnly dull moments
iwhich last night's audience suffered were
such as are common to all jniqstreJg. and
in Al Field's conglomeration the ojd ele
ment Is almost eliminated. The audience
was in high good humor, and seemed pleas
ed enough with everything.
Tlie performance opened in the regula
tion way, dppe up in national colors and
with much patriotic display, followed by
the usual dialongue auj songs.
Tommy Donnelly, Arthur Rigby and Al
‘Field were very funny, while the eccentric
dancing of Doc Quigley another of that ijk,
made a pronounced hit. The performance
continued with a neat display of jugging
by Everhardt, and then there was a skit
on the Santiago campaign, in which Dan
Quinlan, the “premier ftfterloeutor," (ap
peared in canvas uniform apd eyeglasses
as Colonel Teddy Roosevelt. Mr- Quinlan’s
naturally persistent smile and consequent
display of teeth added something to >
swifter felt which was otherwise not very
strong- Field, (Donnelly. Will Patton and
Doc Quigley .took part in this absurdity,
which revolver the 'big Mr. Field
and gave horn a good unity to display
his talent for fun-making.
One of 'the best features was the gro
tesque turn by Gruet, Beers and Grqet, in
which one of the trio, a man apparently
without bones or nerves, allowed himself to
I be hanged mauled about in away that
was truly rem4trjcable. It was one of the
most laughable e%h) ! bji4if?ns of reckless ath
letics ever witnessed.
The Faust family, which confab?* sev
eral members not old enough i<? begin
school, won high favor with another ath
letic exhibitlop.
The performance closed with a display of
shadowgraph picture* by the DeVilliers.
This pantomime'contaJned a prize tight,
«ie of the most remarkable eyey seen on
canvass, and other noveltie* in shadow ef
fects which were very good.
Taken in its entirety, Al Field has this
year a show wnicl? is well worth seeing,
and one which last nigh? seemed to please
an andience as great as which paid
trioute to Patti—there has been fro greats?
until last night.
THEATRICAL.

Here Saturday.l
The Strange Adventures of Miss Brown,

tions are said to keep the audience in one

• CATHOLIC CONGRESS.
Is Being Talked s 3f9 n to Be Held
in 1900-
There is considerable talk among the
. atholics in Macon about holding a great
thuroh congress at the beginning of the
new century.
The Church Progress, in St.
Louis, heads the movement direc-
tion and says among other things;
VI by cannot the American church cele
brate the opening of the new century with
a great national Catholic congress, such as
aer frequently held in many European
countries, and such as Australasia is pre
paring to hold in 1900?
Such a gathering would be of incalcula
ble service to English-speaking North
Auierica. If not many tangible results fol
lowed from tfie only one thus far held,
that of Baltirnjore ip 1889, it is because it
was crowded in between ©they events, bo
that the sessions did not last Long enough
[of the delegates to begin to get acquaifit.i
ed, much jess to do any real work.
What a glpyious Pentecostal spectacle it
would be to see of ti?e great
American church meeting together on sueh
an occasion. We are many rites .and al
most of all language*. Besides Lg-tt#
Catholics, ae most of us are, have
among us many churches that belong to the
£rreek, Greco-Ruthenian, Armenian and
rites, and we do not know
how many others.
By language we are divide into English,
German. French, Czech, Polish, Slo
vak, Dutch, Arabic, Greek, Russian, Port
ugese. Spanish, and Lithuanian
s>id doubtless others still.
l«a rece ye aye Indo-Europeans, Indians,
Semites, uegro®?. and .since the acquisition
of our new terrtwree? fe l £b e Pacific. Ma
lays and perhaps Negfttpe* and Mongo
lians. ' , .
The more fully all these rite*, language*
and races could be represented, both by
clergymen and laymen, the more useful
proposed congress would be.

Life In Cavite.
General Merritt's private secretary
writes to a friend in Washington:
“Cavite 1$ a strange plane. Thq
njMcts fire paprow, houses pply one story
high, and the horses are but mere popies.
They are driven to funny little two wheel
contrivances. Another man and myself
drove around in one of these carts yester
day afternoon, and all it cost us for the
two hours we had it was 30 cents, Mexi
can; 15 cents, American. Notwithstand
ing this low charge, clothes and the like
have gone up in price, although I ordered
a linen suit, and the price is to b,fi $7,
-
' f!Tho rainy season is how on, and when
}t rains it rains hard, coming down in
regular torrents. The mornings are usual
ly clear, and, much to my surprise, I have
not as yet found any extremely hot
weather. I think the climate is not half
as bad as it has been pictured. Certainly
|t is not overhot.”
Believes In Vaccination.
The Duke of Argyll has given the anti
ypecinationis'ts the following “testimo
nial;” “I look upon theeifqptsof vaccina
tion as one of the great triumphs of
pcience, ami I deplore the mania which
h<is set in, as the result of a long iinmu
pity from the disease, which has led to a dis
creditable and stupid forgetfulness of its
paupq. Tim highlands of Scotland in the
last century used to be swept by the pesti
lence to a fearful extent. ‘Decimation’ is
now inadequate to convey an idea of the
effect on the population. Whole parishes
were depopulated. All.this stopped when
inoculation came and vaccination subse
quently. No fact in history is more clear
ly established.”
J.Vq«l«ln’t Stop Him.
Professor Mulhall’s estimate of $81,750,-
000,000 as the wealth of this country gives
to each man, woman and child §1,150 as
an average. But it is useless to quote this
to the friend who always is asking for the
Joan of a quarter.—New York Press.

IMPORTANT TO LADIES
During the past few weeks we have had so many in
quiries concerning our Dressmaking Department —“Can I
have a dress made before the Carnival?” is the question
asked—that we desire to make public announcement of the
fact that all orders for dresses placed before October 5 will
receive immediate and'careful attention, and will be filled in
HmDle Time foi me Carnival
We desire, too, to lay some stress on the advantages of
our Dressmaking Department this season.
In the first place, it is in charge of Miss Birdie
Smith, one of the most experienced dressmakers in Macon.
In point of experience and taste MISS SMITH has few
equals. Her work is guaranteed, and with the opportunity
now afforded her of adding to her reputation it is a foregone
conclusion that Miss Smith’s Creations will take the
lead among the fashionable women of Macon and middle
Georgia.
But another very important point is the fact that MISS
SMITH has arranged to turn out the Highest Class
Work at Reasonable Prices. She is not disposed to
add on five or ten dollars for her name alone She merely
charges the worth of the work—and hardly that.
We aie convinced that the fashionable women of Macon
and vicinity will live to thank us for directing their atten
tion to MISS SMITH’S work and prices when once they
give her a trial. We know from years of experience in the
business that Her Work Cannot be excelled in
Macon, and Her Prices Cannot be Duplicated.
If you must have one or two new dresses for the Car
nival, it will pay you to consult MISS SMITH at once.
Here are a few suggestions that may help you to make
a selection at once—and we have made the prices with a
view to inducing immediate action on your part:
