6 MAYOR GORDON 1 MIME Mil After His Arrival in New York from Santiago After Re signing Commission. FOWL PLAY IS FEARED, General Alarm Sent Out Through the Police District of New York City. By Associated Press. New York, Oct. 14. — Major Frank Gor don is missing in New York and a general alarm was sent out to the police districts last night and every effort is being made to locate the missing man. Aeording to the report that was curent last night in New York, Major Gordon had mysteriously disappeared from his hotel and no excuse could be found for his con tinued absence. After search was made at the city, it is said that no trace of him could be found and his friends are very uneasy about him, as it is feared that he has been the victim of foul play. Major Gordon, who is a son of General John B. Gordon, recently secured a com mission as major in the volunteer army and went to Cuba in command of a bat talion in Col. Ray’s regiment of immunes. Before the regiment left Macon charges ■were preferred against Major Gordon and it is said a court martial was summoned to pass upon the charges in Santiga, where Ray’s regiment went. Major Gordon resigned, however, before the assembling of the courtmartial, and it is said took transportation for New YorlA It was stated in New York last night that he disappeared almost immediately after reaching the city, and that a thor ough search had been made by the, police but he could not be located. The general alarm which was eent out to the various police stations stated that the missing man was Major Frank Gordon, of Georgia, giving a minute description of the man. The search was being made of the city early this morning, but nothing de finite was learned. It was not stated last night where Major Gordon was stopping when he disappeared. Major Gordon is well known throughout Georgia and in Atlanta. He was for a number of years a citizen of DeKalb coun ty and at one time contemplated running for the office of state senator from that county. Later he went to Atlanta and be gan the practice of law, leaving this pro fession to enter the war against Spain. DIAMOND JUBILEE CARNIVAL. Macon, Ga., October 11. 12, 13 and 14.

From Benjamin Franklin. "When you are sick what you like best is to be chosen for a medicine in th* first place: what experience tells you is best to be chosen in the second place; what reason (i. e.. Theory) says is best is to be chosen in the last place. But if you can get Dr. Inclination. Dr. Experience and Dr. Reason to hold a consultation to gether . they will give you the best ad vice that can be taken." When you have a bad cold Dr. Inclina tion would recommend Dr. Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy, because it is pleasant and safe to take. Dr. Experience would recom mend it because it never fails’’to effect a speedy and permanent cure. Dr. Reason would recommend it because it is pre pared on scientific principles and acts on nature's plan in relieving the lungs, opening the secretions and restoring the system to a natural and heakhy condi tion.

GIVEN MORE TIME, Tradesman’s National Hopes to Pay Out. By Associated Press. Washington, Oct. 14. —A committee of ! the directors of the Tradesmans’ national bank of New York, consisting of Wm. H. Wolverton, Juiiue Kaufmann and David H. Bate, called on Charles D. Dawes, the controller of the currency, yesterday in l connection with the affairs of the bank. Tae national bank examiner in charge of the bank has reported to the controller that the amount due depositors on Oct. 4, 1898, ’a as $2,409,000 and he estimates that the short time bills favorable r or the bank, which will be paid at maturity, to gether with the each asests amount to 52 .r 200,610, leaving a balance of assets i amounting to something over $1,u00,00, i with which to provide for the difference i of $203,390. The examiner having carefully gone over the assets, says that he believes a sum largely in excess of the apparent de ficit can be realized. Under the circumstances the controller announced to the committee that he would give them further time in which to make an effort to put the bank in a condition to meet all its obligations cn demand. Some of the larger depositors have an nounced their willingness to accept cer tificates of deposit payable at a later date in order that this result may be reached. It was also made a condition by the con troller that he should select from the di rectors of the bank the members to com pose the liquidating committee, as he did not desire these officers of the institution through whose arbitrary action the Wool Exchange loans were taken, to be con nected with the liquidation. He announced that he would give the committee a rea sonable time to bring their efforts to a conclusion and that he would then send a representative from his office who, with the New York bank examiner, would again appraise the assets so as to enable him to give his final decision with the most com plete information. A Narrow E-cape- Thankful words written by Mrs. Ada E. Hart, of Groton, S. D., "Was taken with a bad cold which settled on mylungs; cough set in and finally terminated in consump tion. Four doctors gave me up, saying I could live but a short time. I gave myself up to my savior, determined if I could not stay with my friends on earth I would meet my absent ones above. My husband was advised to get Dr. King’s New Dis covery for Consumption, Coughs and Colds. I gave it a 'trial; took in all eight bottles.

MACON NEWS OCTOBER 14 The well known poem. “ Curf z w Shall C Not Ring To night,” in / which a young ‘ man by hanging to T the curfew bell saves the & > life of her lover condemn- \ ed to be executed at the Ut \ Tinging of the curfew, is V, only one of a— thousand strik ing instances of how a woman will dare everything for x love. wy 9 Women are readier to U z . make heroic sacrifices •lyiX than they are to take the commonplace, everyday precautions which insure their great est happiness. Most wo men are careless about their health. They for- j get that physical weak- W-Yr ness and disease will ix wreck the fairest chance f x? in life and shut them out completely from happy womanhood and wifehood. Weak, bilious, dyspeptic women are robbed of their natural attractiveness and capacity. They lose healthy color and energy and ambition. The blood becomes poor and thin and laden with disease-germs. The true antidote for this condition is Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery. It acts directly upon the digestive powers and the liver, creating pure, red, healthy blood free from bilious impurities; it renovates every organ and tissue of the body, building up hard, elastic flesh and muscular strength and imparting nerve power and permanent vitality, which malt extracts do not give. Mrs. Ella Howell, of Derby, Perry Co., Ind., writes: “In the year of 1894 I was taken with stomach trouble —nervous dyspepsia. There was a coldness in mv stomach.'and a weight which teemed like a rock. Everything that I ate gave me great pain; I had a bearing down sensation; was swelled across my stomach; had a ridge around my right side, and in a short time I was bloated. I was treated by three of our best phy sicians but got no relief. I was so weak I could not walk across the room without assistance. Then Dr. Pierce's Goldeu Medical Discoverv was recommended to me and I got it, and commenced the use of it. I began to improve very fast after the use of a few bottles. The physicians said y disease was leading into pulmonarv consump tion, and gave me up to die. I thank God tha.’ my cure is permanent.” NEW YORK WORLD Th rloe-a-Week Edition 18 Pages a Week... ...156 Papers a Year FOR ONE DOLLAR. Published every alternate day except Sun day.
