4 EVERYTHING IS STORM TOSSED Damage to the ’Cotton Crop Will Be Considerable in Storm District. TRAINS ALL DELAYED. Impossible Yet to Get Any Informa tion Very Little Damage Done in the City. Great damage was done by the storm -which struck the city lari night about 9 o’clock. The storm had been brewing all rtay long and it n truck the city in full blast about 9 o’clock The nun which fell did no particular damage tut the damage done by tbe wind was very great. Tr<<* and fences are down on every side. In some portions of the city ho i*e* were unroofed, windows were smashed and for a while it looked as If somts of tbo large building would blow down. The wind bl»w at the rate of about fifty miles en hour and confined for some time. It was nec essary to cut off all of the electric light* and stop the electric cars from running, an there was so much danger of live wires being blown to the groun i and from 12 o’clock until daylight this morntng the city wan in darknraa. The telegraph wirea on all of the rail roads except tbe Georgia are down and it is impossible to get any news from ths coast, where the storm was the greateat. The win* of both telegraph companies are down, and it is impossible to reach At tan la except by Augusta. The Southern train which was to arrive here yewterday afternoon at 4.45, has never reached the city and it is thought that it was impossible for the train to leave Brunswick on account of the high tide". The train which was also due at 2.05 thia ’rn/wning as not yet come in and it is not lenown when it will arrive. Nothing can be learned from the trains and those which were sent out yesterday have not been heard from. The trains to Atlanta over the Southern are running all right. The Central train from Savannah came in on time this morning and the train men say that the road was not damaged at all, but that all of the telegraph wires were down The Georgiy Southern from Palatka also came in on time. All of the wires on that line an* also down and nothing can be learned from tbe lower end of the line. The Georgia road is alright and none of tho wires are down. Tbe Southwestern trains are running on time and tbe em ployes say that the road is in good condi tion. The wires of the Macon and Dublin are broken in several places but that will not interfere with the running of trains. The Southern officials say that they do not know when the will get a train out of Brunswick, as it is Impossible to hear from there. If they cannot use their track out they will try the'Plant system and will en deavor to get a train in by tomorrow. • The damage done in the city will not amount to much, 'but in many places the ■trod* are blocked with fallen trees. Sev eral buildings were Hooded on account of the roofs blowing off. Signs were lying all over tbe streets this morning and in many places the sidewalks were covered with Klass from broken windows. This morning the cars on the Maoon and Indian Spring street railroad had to sue pend running for some time on account of the wires being out of order. Trees had fallen across the trolley wire out near Oc mulgee park ami it was impossible for the cars to run until they were removed. Linemen were busy this morning re pairing broken wires, which had fallen dur ing the night. The wind subsided about 7 o’clock but the rain continued throughout the morning. Several of the warehousemen were asked If they thought that the storm would in jure the cotton. Mr. W. A. Davis said that lie did not know the extent of tbe storm but that he was very much afraid that the wind and rain would greatly injure the cotton. No farmers have been in the city today and it is impossible to find out the result of the storm in the country. It is thought, however, that the cotton crop is badly damaged and that all open cotton has been ruined. News was received this morning that the wteamshlp City of Augusta, from New York, had arrived in Savannah. Groat un eaaluess was felt here for a while for the aafety of the boat as there are several Ma con people on board. Mrs. L. P. Ilillyer was among the passengers. Nothing has ben heard from Macon's steamer, the City of Macon, which sank in IRuttermtlk Sound a few day* ago, and It is not known whether or not the storm of yesterday completely destroyed her. An efhirt had been made to raise the boat, but it is not known whether it was successful. The owners of the boat fear that the high ttde ruined all of the chances of ever rais ing the boat. Bears ths J*^ ind BoOfiM FIELD’S MINSTRELS. What a Birmingham Paper Has to Say of the Attraction. Age-Herald, Bimingham. ‘The best minstrel show ever given In Birmingham." was the unanimous verdict of the audience which witnessed Al Field's minstrels last night. Not only was it a "standing room only” audience, but is was also one of the most refined that has ever been seen In the opera house. And there was not a thing in the entire performance that could offend the most sensitive ear. The best part of the show was the en tirely new specialties introduced. The lit tle minstrel sketch, "In Cuba," with Al Field in the leading roll, was something real new and up-to-date. It dealt of the adventures of tbe negro cook in a com pany of the Rough Riders while before Santiago. An electrical pantomime entitled, "Gone to the Moon." was another of the novel ties introduced. The introductory scene of the show while lu the conventional minstrel style, was brimming over with good songs, dances and jokes. Dan Quinlan's work as inter loeuter was brighter than ever, and .tflat is saying a great deal. Al Field's jokes were absolutely of the latest manufacture, for almost every one of them were on the Spanish war; they had to be new. Doc Quigley’s eccentric dancing was highly ap plauded. Kverhardt, the juggler. Gruett, 'Beers & Greet*, in their aerobatic specialty euUtled a "Strange Sweetheart," Arthur Rigsby in his confidential talk with the audience. Leilliott. Busch and Leilliott. in their musical family act, and Faust acro 4>atlc family were all far above the average minstrel attractions, and all of them were roundly applauded. Tffe music of the whole performance, both vocal and instru mental, was better than ever. CASTOR IA For Infants and Children. The Kind You Have Always Bought Carnival decorations at Powers’.

The hotel was crowded for some time. The storm last night caused a majority of the soldier* in camp to come up town. Several trees were blown down and sev eral of the men came near being hurt. A slick thief entered the tent of Captain ■Davis at Camp Price Saturday and stole his pistol, poncho and blanket. The cap tain says they were the only things that he really cared for and that they were welcome to anything else that he bad.

President Waxelbaum, of the Carnival Association, is daily revolving flags from the governors of different states for the use In the Patriotic Parade. The prettiest flags which have yet been received are those from Indiana and Mary land. The Indiana flag is made of the finest silk and measures 3x4 feet. An effort will be made to get at least one regiment of soldiers here by the time the Carnival comes off so that they can participate in the Carnival parade. The executive committee will hold a meeting at the Chamber of Commerce Wednesday afternoon and the chairman of every committee and every officer is re quested to be present as it will the final meeting of the committee and some very important business is to be transacted, All the business men are expected to decorate their places of business during the Carnival with the Carnival colors— cardinal and white. The ladies are going to decorate their residences and if all of the business men would do the same the 1 bity would present a gala appearance. The colors are beyond doubt the prettiest that could have been selected and if all of the city were decorated in them when the time for the celebration comes off it would add greatly to teh appearance of the city. The floats which have been at the park for so long a time are now almost ready to be brought out. Paine's Fire Works Company is busily at work arranging for their great display which is to be held here for three nights.

Camp Price looks deserted today. AH of the soldiers have departed except those who were left in charge of the camp. ■Volunteers were called for to have charge of the camp until the furlough of the men expired. The number called for was six men from each company, but many more than that volunteered and at present about a hundred men are in camp. Captain Bell is in charge of the men. The only duty that they will have to per form is to guard the camp and see that none of the government property is remov ed. A majority of the soldiers departed Sat urday as soon as they received their pay, and all of the outgoing trains were crow ded. The railroads made a cheap rate for the soldiers and some provided them with special cars. They all seemed glad to get home and took the first trains out. Still there are a great many soldiers in the city, and some of them have no homes to go to and they will probably remain in Macon until the soldiers are mustered out. Many of the soldiers returned to camp last night and asked permission to stay there, and it is probable that they will remain there until the return of the regiment, and they will then apply for admission to the Third regiment. It is understood that the Third Georgia has entirely too many men and that they are ‘being discharged every day. , The soldiers behaved very well on Sat urday night considering they were paid oft on that day. Very few’ were arrested. ADD SOLDIERS The following special to the Constitu tion tells of the reception to the Savannah companies: Savannah, Ga., Oct. 2 —Three Savannah companies of the First Georgia regiment arrived today from Macon under command of Lieutenant Colonel Jordan F. Brooks and marched to the regimental armory on Abercorn street in the face of a violent gale, which has been blowing over the city several hours. The boys were encouraged, however, and felt cheered when the church bells rung out in honor of their return. The companies that came are the Repub lican Blues, the Savannah Cadets and the Irish Jasper Greens. They are on a thirty days’ furlough, but they believe they will be mustered out of the government's ser vice at the expiration of this time. At the armory the boys were tendered a reception which was generally attended, considering the inclement weather. Colonel A. R. Lawton came with the men, but he will return to Macon tomorrow night to resume command of the regiment. Lieu tenant Colonel Brooks will remain in Sa vannah for the present. . ■Brunswick too gave her boys a rousing welcome this morning if indeed they have been able to reach the city over the water bound track a special says: Brunswick. Ga., Oct. 2 —The citizens of Brunswick are red hot in enthusiasm about welcoming the Riflemen on their return from Camp Price Monday next.

The new telephone switchboard went into operation Saturday at midnight and has been working well ever since. Man ager Weaver is to be congralulated on the smoothness with which the change was made and the subscribers ot the system appreciate 'the vast improvement that has been made in the working of the whole system. A few people are forgetting that the lever is a thing of the past when they want to call "Central,” and, as a conse quence, some of them lost their tempers. But if every one will remember that all .that is necessary is to take the hand phone from the hook and wait for the voice of the operator, who simply says "number and then give the number re quired the result will be very satisfactory. Macon has now a telephone system that is equal to 'the best in the country. Carnival signs by Lingo. Leave orders at Powers’. SCHOOLS CROWDED.

A meeting of the students of Mercer was ! held Saturday afternoon and the challenge j of the University of Georgia regarding a i debate was discussed. It was finally de i cided to accept the challenge and the f students proceeded to elect their represen ; tatives. Thre of the best debaters in the college were selected— H. F. Lawson, Walter T. George and Markus Bolding. At the last debate, which was held in Atlanta in May, the Orange and Black triumphed over the red and black, and i the Athens boys are sore over their defeat. News comes from Athens that the college there have already elected its debaters and the men are busy on their speeches. The time of holding the debate and the subject has not yet been decided upon, but it will be done as soon as Athens is heard from. It is understood that Athens has some strong men this year, but the Mercer boys claim that tney have nothing to fear. The state oratorical contest will come off in Atlanta this month and Mercer will be represented by Mr. Moncrief. He will, I no doubt take care of Mercer’s interests, j Mercer is already fatuous for her orators, i and in the coming contests will no doubt I sustain .her reputation. The election for ■anniversar.ion for the Ciceronian Society will come off Saturday. So far only one candidate is in the field, but two more are expected to enter before the election is held and the race promises to be very interesting. The Y. M. C. A. is doing good work this year, and at the meeting Friday steps were taken to put up a splendid gymnasium. It is proposed to equip the gymnasium Xvith the latest improved fixtures. Mercer Is ] improving each year and so is the college I spirit of her students and it will not be I long before the college will rank as one of the foremost in the country. CA.S T OHIA .
