SWEPT AWAY'
BY BAD FIRE,
Two of of the Finest of Ma
con’s Business Houses
Burned this Morning.
MAGNIFICENT PYROTECHNICS
Not on the Program for the Carni
val—Everything is Covered by
Insurance—Details of Fire.
Fire broke out this morning a few min
utes before 1 ©’■clock in the three-story
building on Third street occupied by the
Winn-Johnson crax-ker and candy factory,
owned by Mrs. Curd.
In a few. seconds after the discovery of
the fire and the turning in of the alarm
from the box on the corner of Third and
Mulberry street flames broke from the
rear end of the building and greedily
licked with forked tongues the wall on the
east side and next to the alley.
The department made a grand run, but
the fire must have been smouldering for
some time before it was discovered, for it
■was easily seen that it had great headway
on the inside W the building and that
nothing on earth could save the building.
Great volumes of smoke rolled from the
windows in the front and the crash of
falling glass, the rush of the water, the
cries of the excited crowd and the shriek-
of a few exhilirated Carnival visitors
who were more than pleased at this addi
tion to the program, made the first mo
ments of the fire intensely gloomy and
ominous.
The town had not yet gone to rest after
a day of excitement. Hundreds of belated
visitors were on the streets and others
were quickly summoned from the many
places where the midnight oil is burned
and pleasure has its sway.
The great floral ball was at its height,
and even the illumination of the city and
the most magnificent pyrotechnic display
not advertised, but thrown in gratis, only
drew away comparatively few from the
enticing mazes of the german.
ißut a few of the dancers were out and
added to the peculiar beauty of the scene
when the great black masses of smoke
burst into a brilliant column of light,
lighting up the sea of faces making up the
mob of every class and every station that
filled the streets and the sidewalks and the
parks for a block.
After the first burst of flame the fire was
fierce and strong. It broke out in every
direction and stretched its greedy tongue
out toward the old Floyd House across
the corner, where the frightened Italians,
whose peculiar habitation it is, were gath
ered and huddled itj a frightened group.
Then the flames reached the store of
fire works. A great bomb gave the signal
and the battle of Manila, of San Juan
Heights and of Omdurman were as nothing
to the fusilade.
Rockets, careless of thejr direction, sped
skyward or down into the depths of the
ocean of flame.
Devils among the Tailors shrieked and
whistled, popped and roared in a demonia
cal fury and ten thousand crackers snap
ped and barked upon the third story,where
they had been stored for the coming of
Christmas.
As the larger bombs exploded showers
of sparks rose in great columns against
the black night sky and the flames an
swered with a sullen roar.
In twenty minutes the interior of the
building was gutted and nothing practi
cally but the wall remained. Then the
wall next to the alley fell with a crash
and a shriek from a frightened Italian
rose above the noise of everything as part
of the outer wall of the old Floyd house
went with it.
Speculation ran rife as to the safety of
the building: that occupied by Mr.
T. C. Burke. It was thought that the fire !
wall would save it, but this hope was '
doomed to die. for slowly little puffs of :
smoke came from the crevices, then in
greater volumes from the roof and a little
light, more, more, ending with a crash of |
breaking glass and a volume of smoke and
flame. • j
Now was the time for the department to |
get’ in its best work, and it rose to the !
occasion nobly. Everyone thought that '
the re«t of the block must go and the ■
American national bank was put down as
a loss.
Well directed streams of water were
put into the upper stories and it was seen
that they were holding the flames in
che-’k. But from the fourth story to the
third and from the third to the second the
fierce and persistent flames made their
way until at last it was seen that water
had won the fight and that the rest'of the j
blocjt was safe.
At 2:30 o'clock it was shown that there
was no more danger and that the fire had
done its worst, but the streams were kept
going until well into the morning.
The fire originated in the bakery of the
cracker factory but the exact cause is
not known.
The Winn-Johnson store is a complete ,
loss with all the stock.
The bivlding was the property of Mrs.
Curd and the stock was valued at $50,000.
The Burke building is the property of
Mr T. C. Burke, and while it is not
thought that the whole of the stock is a
loss very little will be saved. The loss
will be about $75,000 altogether and tne
insurance is ample.
The members of the firms were so oc
cupied this morning that they were un
able to make an estimate of the values,
but it is probable that the insurance com
panies will have to bear the brunt of it.
Following is the insurance as given to
the News by the agents:

NEW ROAD
Will Soon Be Running Through from Macon
to Valdosta.
Atlanta, Oct. 13.—1 n sixty day a new
route will be completed into Jacksonville,
Fla. This is the line which is being built
from Valdosta to Jacksonville and known
as the Jacksonville, Valdosta and Western.
More than 600 men are at work grading
and laying track. The grading will soon
be completed into Valdosta, and the gen
eral manager, Mr. E. C. Long, expects to
have trains running through from Valdos
ta to Jacksonville in December.
It has been reported in the lower part
of the state that this line is backed by the
Georgia Southern and Florida, but there
is no positive evidence going to show that.
It does look, however, as though the new
line would make the Georgia Southern and
Florida a strong connection. 'Seventy
pound steel rails are being laid on the
road bed and the construction is high
class.
The line will be 107 miles long, and will
be almost an air line.. A part of it was
originally a lumber road built by George
S. Baxter & Co., a firm engaged in getting
out crossties. Mr. E. C. Long, a member
of the firm, is vice president and general
manager of the new railroad company.
By extending their road they open up a
new timber country, and they wil also
give a very desirable outlet to Jackson
ville.
Although the trains will not be running
through for two months yet, the ompany
publishes a map and time table in the
Standard Guide, giving the schedule for
the whole line from one terminal to the
other.
The map in the guide gives the impres
sion that the company proposes to build
on to Chicago and have an air line to the
northwest, but that part of the program
will probably be deferred for the present.
iMr. Walter Ferguson, of 18 Wall street.
New York, is president of the company.
Mr. Ferguson is interested in other rail
roads in the South, among them the At
lanta, Knoxville and Northern.
SOUTHERN REVIEW
Will Publish a BeautifOl History of the Car
nival.
One of the most interested spectators in
Macon this week is Mr. 'Bruce Armstrong,
the proprietor of that sterling magizine.
The Southern Review. Mr. Armstrong has
employed Mr. Milner of this city to sup
ply photographs of all the leading features
of the Carnival, especially those of the
floral and war and peace parades, and will
with a fifteen-page article upon Macon by
Harry Stillwell Edwards. The Review is one
of the South’s new creations. It began its
existence in Knoxville a few months ago
and met with instantaneous and over
whelming success. The entire plant has
recently been removed to Atlanta and it i
will be published there hereafter. It is a
standard size magazine, printed upon the '
style of paper used by the Century and
Harper's and its picture process is superior
to anything used in the South. Its next i
edition will consist of 50.000 copies. The I
Review is a literary venture upon legiti
mate lines. Its advertisement of Macon is
free of cost to any one in the city. The
November issue will also contaifi a short
memorial article upon. Winnie Davis by
Mr. Edwards.
NO BETTERMENT
In the Yellow Fever Situation Is Shown In
Mississippi.
By Associated Press.
Jackson. Miss.. Oct.. 13.—Notwithstand
ing the cool weather the fever situation
presents no change for the better. e
The thermometer went as low as 46
degrees, but if there was any frost it was
too light to be noticeable.
Already the list of new cases for Jack
son has begun to grow, six having been an
nounced this morning, three white and
three colored.
A more hopeful view. however, prevails,
and. it is believed the cold weather will
soon put an end to further spread.
No newly infected localities in the state
were reported to the state board yesterday.
The reports from the infected points show
that the number of new cases show no sign
of abatement, except those peaces where
the material is exhausted.
CAUGHT A NEGRO
Miner at Springfield and Did Him Up in
Great Shape.
Springfield. 111., Oct. 13.—A negro miner,
claiming to be one of those brought from
the South yesterday for Virden, was as
saulted at the depot here today by white
miners, they finding that he was on his
way back to Virden.
The officers interfered. He is not badly
hurt, but was surrendered again and taken
possession of by the miners and taken to
the hall of the miners union, where he re
mained in custody of the miners.
A large number of miners surrounded
the hall, but were not boisterous. The
wounded miners who were brought to
I Springfield from Virden are still aliv%.

CLOSING PYROTECHNICS.
Paine Will Close His Great Engagement at
the Park Tonight.
Paine will close his engagement with a •
final production of the Battle of Manila
tonight. Mr. Lee the manager, says that j
the show tonight will be the best yet pre- j
seated and that more seats will be placed !
at th? grounds for the accommodation of i
the crowds.
The production of last night was far
superior to that of the night before. Every
thing was in better shape and several new
features were added which caught the
crowd.
The number of people at the grounds last
night was the largest ever gathered togeth
er in Macon. Fully a thousand were turn
ed away and twice that many were unable
to find seats and it was necesasry to use
the members of the First Georgia regiment
as sentinels to keep the crowds back.
The -pictures Admiral Dfwey and Lieu
tenant Hobson were shown and drew forth
much applause from the spectators.
The production tonight will far exceed
that of the previous nights and the crowds
will no doubt be larger.
The management of the street car line
deserves much credit for the excellent
manner in which they have handled the
crowds.
At the fireworks several people have
been robbed of valuables. The mater has
been reportd to the detectives and they are
at present at work on the cases.

Erysipelas ■
Two Diseases That Cause Their
Victims to Be Shunned by
Their Fellow-Man.
RFRixaFiF.br>, Mo.
Gentlemen : I commenced takin gP.
P. P., Lippmans Great Remedy, last
Fall, for Erysipelas. My face was com
pletely covered with the disease ; I took
B short course of P. P. P., and it loon
disappeared. Thia Spring I became
much debilitated and again took an
other course, and 1 am now in good
condition. I consider P. P. P. one of
the best blood preparations on the
market, and for those who need a gen
eral tonic to build up the system and
Improve the appetite I consider that it
has no equal. Will say, anyone who
cares to try P. P. P. will not be disap
pointed in its results, and 1, therefore,
•heerfully recommend it.

Gentlemen: Last June I had a

taken almost every medicine recom
