TO THE NEGROES
The Irish Evangelist Spoke Yesterday on
Prohibition.
The prohibition meeting last night was
largely attended, more people being pres
ent than at any of the previous meetings.
About two hundred colored people were
present, and Dr. Loe devoted his sermon
mainly to them. His subject was
••Heaven," but he did not dwell much upon
«.
tHe took up the saloon question at once.
The negroes were stirred to the highest
pitch of enthusiasm and frequently inter
rupted the speaker by their exclamations.
He tried to Impress upon the negroes that
the saloons were destroying their homes.
He said that he wanted them to undertsand
that he was not Being to them as white
people had done, but what he was telling
them was the plain truth.
He said that instead of helping the bus
iness of the city, the whisky men were in
juring it. lHe did not explain how they
were doing it, but said that he would- ex
plain that at the meeting Sunday after
noon when he began his campaign against
whisky. He stated that what he was say
ing now was only a prologue to what wits
coming, and that the people might expect
something when he did begin.
He stated last night that the election
would be held on the first of December and
when the votes were counted they would
show that the prohibitionists had carried
the county. Several of the negroes became
happy and began to shout.
At the end of the -sermon Mr. Lee invited
everybody that Was in favor of his views
to stand up. Nearly’ everybody present
stood up. and all of the •negroes present
pledged themselves to votQ for prohibition
when the election came off. The petitions
to the ordinary asking that -an election be
called was circulated among the crowd -and
many new names were added. Some of the
■negroes were so much aruosed that they
wanted to sign the petition twice.
The weather made it very unpleasant for
the people present but only a few left the
tent while the services were in progress.
All of the colored ministers present, oc
cupied seats on the platform. The tent
will be made larger tomorrow and seats for
1.800 more people will be added. These
will be reserved especially for the colored
• people, who are invited to attend every
night.
Meetings will be held every night, and
on -Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock Dr. Lee
will begin his campaign against whisky in
earnest.

NOW IS THE TIME I
FOR GOOD WORK
President R. M. Rogers of the
Chamber of Commerce,
Issues an Address.
RESULT OF THE CARNIVAL
Has Been to Bring the People of
the City Together More Than
Ever in Its History,
Macon has celebrated her seventy-fifth
birthday with the Diamond Jubilee Carni
val in a manner befitting the occasion.
This celebration, so successfully carried
out, has given tne city of Macon a national
advertisement.
In the evert,, however, is an underlying
significance that should appeal to every
business man in the city of Macon. The
results of systematized and determined ef
fort has been brilliantly accentuated.
What has been done by the men who car
ried the carnival to a successful issue, can
be done by -the business men in the up
building of Macon, in the broadening of her
business channels and activities.
The organized agency through which
great work can be done for this city is the
Chamber of Commerce. A review of the
work it has accomplished during the pres
ent year furnishes ample proof of its ca
pacity as an agent for greater -Work, with
commensurate results.
Commencing the year with seventy-five
active members, it now numibers one hun
dred and fifty representative business men
on its membership rol-i. From the first day
of January, 1898, the Chamber of Com
merce has worked on ibroader and more pro
gressive lines —Its quarters have been open
every work day during the week from 9
a. m to 5 p. m. for the transaction of bus
iness. The trade territory tributary to
Macon has been brought in closer touch
with Macon—the establishment of a nav
igation line was initiated by the Chamber
of Commerce, and the work has been car
ried on with successful results by men
prominent in -the councils of the organiza
tion. Questions involving the adjustment
of freight rates have been taken up and
seilted. Subjects involving national legis
lation have been handled through the
agency of the Chamber of Commerce. Lo
cal matters affecting the business interests
of the ci-ty have been taken up and are
now in process of equitable adjustment.
A project to increase the trade of Ma
con to large proportions is now un-der con
sideration and will soon be put in practical
operation.
The location at Macon of a United States
military camp is due to the initial work
of -the members of -the Chamber of Com
merce.
A bureau of information has been estab
lisher, and through it people of all sections
of the Union 'are informed about Macon and
its territory, and the many advantages of
fered to capital and labor.
The efficient work it haw performed, the
active -work it is now doing demands the
support of every business man in this eity.
There are two hundred representative
business men in Macon who ought to be
members of -the Chamber of Commerce-
In union there is strength, and with a
membership of at least three hundred, the
Chamber of Commerce will not only con
tinue to -be the forum of the business men.
but it will boa more powerful agent in
behalf of every movement that will devel
op and build up our city.
.1. therefore appeal to every business man
in Macon, not a member, -to join us and
help along the upbuilding of our city. -We
are moving now with the impetus of a new
and more active spirit, and now is the op
portune time for a long pull and a -strong
pull together. R. M. Rogers.
UNIVERSITY NOTES.
What is Going on in Football Circles at
Athens.
Special to The News.
Athens, Ga., Oct. 22—The progress of
the football team this week has been grat
ifying. The men have improved wonder
fully in defensive work, in which they
were somewhat deficient at the beginning
of the season. The interest among the
men has greatly increased, so much so
that there is a third team upon the field.
Under the skillful training and coaching
of McCarthy the team will shortly be the
strongest Georgia has ever had, which
fact will be proven in the game with the
Vanderbilt on the 29th of this month. The.
manager, Mr. Pomeroy, is to be congratu
lated upon his excellent schedule which
comprises games with North Carolina and
Auburn‘besides the above named gome.
At the beginning of the year the pros
pects of a good team were somewhat
gloomy on account of the misfortunes of
the '97 team. The men, however, started
work early and faithfully. It is surprising
to find so many substitutes of last year’s
team as regulars. This has been accom
plished by their untiring energy and by
the help of the coach. This fact encour
ages the rest of the students to try for
the team and not to be disheartened by
newcomers as is generally the rule.
“Cow” Nally, Georgia’s best known
football player, is here assisting Mc-
Carthy in coaching the team. His pres
ence is valuable and the fruits of his as
sistance have already begun to appear.
Nally knows the game perfectly, haying
played on the University team for five
years. It is extremelj- gratifying to the
students to have a graduate to coach the
team, as is the case In most Northern col
leges.
In all the outlook is very bright and the
season of 1898 promises to be the banner
season in football. Charlton.

Thankful words writ-ten 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 tp get Dr. King’s New Dis
covery for Consumption, -Coughs and Colds.
I gave it a trial; took in all eight bottles.

saved and am now a well -and healthy

SCHOOL FOR SCANDAL
Will Be Seen at the Academy on Tuesday
Next.
iWagenhal's and Kemper's, elaborate and
■costly revival of Sheridan’s famous com
edy, “The School for Scapdal,” will be
seen in this -city at the Academy of Music
on Thursday next.
Exceptional interest is being manifested
in the engagement, as it will be the first
appearenee here of the big triple-star al
liance, Louis James, Kathryn Kidder and
'Frederick Warde.
It is a noteworthy fact, -that while “The
School for Scandal” has been a popular re
pertoire bill with numerous stars and stock
companies in this country, there have been
no conspicuous revivals of the play, if one
except the production given by, Mr. Au
gustin Daly. The play is one that lends
itself readily and effectively to the uses of
a star cast and to the employment of picto
rial embellishments. The elaborate revi
val given the play by Messrs. Wagenhals
& Kemper this season, hds met with the
most marked success. This revival is not
only interesting because of its own merits,
but because of the novelty attending the
appearance of Messrs. Warde and James
with roles with which they have not in
years been identified, and the introduction
of Miss Kidder in one of the best parts
this charming actress and elightful wo
man has ever essayed.

From Benjamin Franklin.
“When you are sick what you like best I
is to be chosen for a medicine in the first
place; what experience tells you is best
to be chosen in the second place; what
reason (1. e,, Theory) says is best is to
be chosen in the last place. But if you can

Cough Remedy, because it is pleasant and j
safe to take. Dr. Experience would recom- .
mend it because it never fails to effect a I
speedy and'permanent cure. Dr. Reason:

sections but that the health in general is
very good. He says that he is very glad
to get back to Macon and that there are
several hundred in the regiment who
would like to do the same thing.

could not see that so many dead carcases
of horses, mules and cows or other ani
mals that are hauled and left so near the
