LOYAL CANDLER MAN
Dism ss- d tr.m Saldv.ia's Baai for Refusal
to Play.
Special to The News.
M; edge,’hie. Ga., Get. 11.—-Because
Frank Phillips would net join in the ju
; ixni.itd Hagan, late populist can
<l . ■ for governor, upon the occasion of
his recent visit here, he has been expelled
from the Milledgeville Appcllo silver band.
Phillips v is the man who thumped the
big bass drum. The Appolio silver band
is made up of the best young men hr.
Bali. 1; county. They were organized
s;me time ago under the leadership of
Pr, i. I'-. N. Baldwin. a perapapetic musi
cian el* professed talent. It is a non-po-
Il.i al etganizuk a, but most cf the men
put in Democratic ballots at the recent
election.
When Hogan appeared here several weeks
ago to make his final speech. Professor
Baldv in agreed to call out his band, which
would sound a march of welcome as the
candidate stepped from the train, upon the
payment of sls. Notice was served on the
members. Phillips is a former resident
cf Gainesville and a personal frie<nd of
Gov, mor-elect Candler. He informed the
leader that he would not join in any
demonstration cf seeming welcome to the
populist candidate, explaining that many
voters would not know that thev were
“blowing” for cash, and that it would
r. ;oi ss ■ -.' y boom the populist’s chances.
H.., place —as promptly supplied, and the
Ar .to -iher band met Hogan with a
triumphant loot. Now action has been
taken u -on then ase cf Phillips, and he
ha -r, t-ived notice that, in view of bis
intier. he has beeh expelkd.
T- . c.\ pit Lion of the man who thumped
th drum is jus; row a live issue in
Bal.l' m c only. Too- Democrats are star.d
.'•.r up for Phillips, and some of them talk
of plo-'ing the head of a rival band
which they propose to organize.

HOCKED HOPKINS

Out.
By Associated Press.
Rochester, N. Y., Oct. 11.—Kid Goulette
hooked bls right into Joe Hopkins jaw
lasc night in th.- middle of what was to
have been a twenty-five round bout, and
put the colored whirlwind to sleep.
The knockout was the first ever admin
istered to Hopkins in Lis career of eight
years in the ring and was delivered before
a wildly enthusiastic audience of 1,000
people at the Rienzi athletic club.
‘Hopkins did most of the aggressive
work, but Goulette countered beautifully,
bis defence was a good one and he seldom
failed to land when he led. In the third
round Hopkins drew bloi from Goulette
and swelled up> his left eye. To offset this
Goulette gave Hopkins a fearful thump
ing in the body.

"In Scotland. ’’ says an English paper,
•’a modification of the Gothenburg system
seems to be making headway. A little vil
lage near the Dunfermline, named Hill of
Heath, lias municipalized its public house
and installed the electric light out of the
profits. This success has raised envy in
the soul of another village close by, called
Kelty. Kclty does net see why it should

a public meeting has been held, with areal
live county councilor in the chair, to pro
pound a scheme. A sum of £2,000 is to be
raised as capital wherewith to erect the
public house. There are to be eight direct
ors—six elected by the shareholders and
two by the county council. The share
holders are to get a 5 per cent dividend on
their capital, and the surplus profits are
to be handed over to the county council
to be applied as rt sees fit. ”

The Jssmey of Wrezszhood.
When a young girl
develops the first evi
dences of womanhood, it
> is as if she were-starting
’ alone upon a strange
journey beset wrch rough
and dangerous places. A
wise and loving mother
, wall not allow any false
) delicacy to prevent her
r from giving her daughter
the plainest information
and advice at this critical stage of her exist
ence.
Yorng girls suffer a vast amoest of un
necessary pain and misery for lack °f frank
and confidential instruction about their own
physical selves.
Ths special weaknesses and diseases in
cident to woman’s organic development are
completely and permanently remedied by
the ’• Favorite Prescription” prepared by
Dr. R. V. Pieree, chief consulting physician
to the Invalids’ Hotel and Surgicak Institute
of Buffalo, N. Y.
More than oocco cases of obstinate female
difficulties have been absolutely, cured by
this wonderful “Prescription.” It heals,
strengthens and completely rejuvenates the
tissues and nerve-centers of the feminine
organism. It is the only medicine devised
for this special ptjrnose by a regularly
graduated experienced physician. It is the
one authorised preparation which may be
positively relied upon to cure.
Mothers and daughters may consult Dr.
Pierce by letter without charge and in the
most absolute confidence. letters wil!
be answered not by any mem nurse, but by
an educated skill-.d phys - an. Dr. Fierce’s
Common Sense Medical Adviser will be
sent free if ci one-cent stamps are inclosed
to defray the cost of mailing ora/v.
Mis- Edith Cain, of Clinton. Allegheny Co.,
Pa., writes: “I take pleasure is.expressing m.y
faith in your ‘Favorite Prescription.’ After two
years of suffering I began taking Dr. Pierce’s
medicine and now I am entirety cured. I had
been troubled with female weakness for «c«ie
time and also with a troublesome drain on the
system, but now I am happy and well. I will
cheerfully recommend Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Pro
scription to all invalid ladies.'*
