GEN, COMPTON
LIKES THEM ALL
But He Thinks that the Huff
Site is Perhaps a Little
the Best.
ALL DEPENDS ON BATES.
He Will Decide the Whole Matter-
Troops Are Expected to Begin
Arriving Early Next Week.
"We like every site that has been shown
ns. We like iMaoon. We want the camp
(here. We think the sites excellent and
alley are all so very good that we are at
Joss which one to select.” said General
Compton this morning to a News reporter
who questioned him in regard to the ex
act location of the camp.
The general did not like the ideta of
talking of the camp, but he finally said
tlr.it he liked the last site, which the Huff
gdace best of sill.
"General Bates will be down 'today,” ho
said "and he will finally decide the ques
tion I do not know the site that he will
select and 1 am not in a position to say,
but his word will he final."
It seems, however, that the Huff place
will he the camp as plans have been
drawn for the location of the different
regiments. While the officers refuse to
Rive out anything definite 'they all speak
very favorable of the Huff place* and say
that it is an excellent location.
Many citizens were seen in regard to
the matter this morning and 'they say that
Jt Is decidedly the best location they know
of. Still some are inclined to think that
•he Oemulgee park site is a good one and
there is still some hopes of that place bl
ing the camp. The troops may be scattered
as announced in The Nows a few days 'ago,
tout this of course is not definite.
iAh soon as General Bates arrives and
he had made an inspection, he will an
nounce the location of the camp and the
water mains will be put In at once. When
that is done the troops will come. Major
Varnodoe received, a telegram yesterday
from General Wilson ordering him to got
everything in readiness as the troops
'would leave Lexington early next week.
The (Park residence on -College street
will probably be the residence of General
Wilson. It was satisfactory to Coolnel
Biddle and it is understood that he will
recommend the site to General Wilson.
The corps headquarters has not yet been
’’elected as a suitable building has not
Iren found.
The location of the camp will probably
bo anhounced tomorrow as General Bates
is .expected here tonight.

SAM SMALL IS
HERE INADVANCE
Os His Regiment and Talks In
terestingly of the Time
When Gen. Wilson
CAME TO MACON LONG AGO,
Small Was Here Fat the Time—He
Says He Will Not Take Part in
Prohibition Campaign.
Rev. Sam Small, chaplain of the Third
Georgia regiment of Engineers, arrived in
the city last night. He was ordered to
precede his regiment here and he will re
main here until the arrival of the troops.
Mr. Small is an old citizen of Macon,
having resided here throughout the civil
war. He was here at the time the city
was surrendered to General Wilson; who
I will arrive here again in a few days.
Rev. Mr. Small tells an interesting story
of the capture of the city by General Wil
son. He says that the citizens were taken
by surprise and that when the troops came
into the city there was no resistance made.
General Wilson took up his headquarters
at the Hotel Lanier and remained there
throughout his stay. It was there that
Jefferson Davis was brought just after his
capture.
Mr. Small says that he is a great admi
rer of Macon and glad that he sta
tioned here. When he resided here his
home was in Vineville. He says that he
will take no part in the prohibition cam
paign. He says .that he has no business to
mix up in that affair at present and will
stay out of it.
He will, in all probability, erect a large
gospel tent at the camp when it is se
lected and conduct services there. He has
been in the service about three months,
as his regiment is the baby regiment of
the country, being the last one to be mus
tered in. He will remain at the Hotel La
nier until the arrival of his troops and the
will then go into camp. He has many
friends here who are glad to see him and
he is shaking hands all around today.
STUART ROBRON
Is Sure to Havo a Tremendous House To
morrow Night.
Stuart Robson’s annual visits to Macon
are always accounted pleasurable events
in the world of amusement, he has endear
ed himself to thousands of theater-goers
by reason of the many clever characteriza
tions which he has' contributed to the
comedy stage of America. Characteriza
tions, by the way, that have always been
carefully drawn and delicately as well as
artistically handled by this excellent ar
tist, whose followers have come to know
that any play to which he contributes his
unique personality, will be presented in a
painstaking and praiseworthy manner.
Therefore, it is not extraordinary that the
announcements that have been made rel
ative to his forthcoming apearance tomor
row night and the first presentation here
of Augustin Thomas' comedy success,
"The Meddler,” should have succeeded in
arousing public intere.'t.
lit ,
B ■ )
_ Miss Marie Burroughs.
j "The Meddler,” is described by its au-
I author as a comic play of modern man
ners. In it Mr. Thomas treats of Ameri
can contemporary life; ' the personages
who people the author's cast are folks one
meets every day. A partial synopsis of
the plot reveals that Francis Eli, the med
dler (the role assumed by Mr. Robson) has
a proclivity for prying into the affairs of
his acquaintances. In pursuing this fa
vorite, but dangerous pastime, he imagines
he discovers an intrigue between the wife
of one of his frineds, a Mrs. Bancroft, and
a Mr. Chandler, another pae of their set
MACON NEWS FRIDAY EVENING. NOVEMBER 4 iB g S.
He feels called upon to put a stop to this
and as is usually the case, he has an in
tervie wwith the wife, who, of course, is
martally offended and during the stormy
scene which ensues the husband comes in
upon them and finding his wife and “The
Meddler” in high words, demands an ex
planation, which not being forthcoming,
“The Meddler” is ordered from he house.
The husband later seeks him out 'and
demands satisfaction, whereupon “The
Meddler,” to save himself, places' the
blame for tho accusation upon first one
member of their set and then another un
til he has the whole circle in an uproar
of complications from which thre seems
no escape.
Mr. Thomas is said to have handled his
subject in a masterly manner; the plot is
well defined throughout and the role which
he has furnished Mr. Robson is particular
ly well suited to that player’s acknolwedg
ed gifts of voice and action. Mr. Robson
•will be assisted in his presentation of
“The Meddler” by all of the original
players who contributed their artistic per
sonality during the New York run of Au
gustin Thomas' play at Wallack’s theater.
The majority of these play-folk need no
introduction to our theater-goers. Theo
dore Babcock, Harold Russell, Theo Ham
ilton, Mrs. Stuart Robson. Maude Granger,
Gertrude Perry and Marie Burroughs are
names that .are synonymous with posi
tive worth and- their collective artistic
strength is certainly a guarantee that
“The Meddler” will receive artistic por
trayal at their hands.

FROM CHARLESTON.
Letter from Mayor to Brother in West
Superior.
By Associated Press.
West Superior, Wis., Nov. 4. —The fol
lowing letter has been received by Mayor
Dietreich:
Mayor West Superior, Wls.—Dear Sir: I
have the honor to acknowledge the receipt
of resolutions adopted by your common
council on the 10th. Our city council will
not meet until the 9th of November, but I
will take pleasure in bringing' your com
munication then before them. The citi
zens of Charleston, and especially the no
ble women of the old city, rejoice to have
it in their power in some degree to allevi
ate and soothe the pains of j-our sick and
suffering boys who were stricken down
when on their way to fight the battles of
our common country. We warmly appre
ciate your gratitude and heartily recipro
cate j-our earnest wish for a closer bond
or union between your people and ours.
It was worth all this war has cost in
money and in infinitely more precious
lives, If it will result in the cementing to
gether forever the different sections of this
great country. All that is neede for such
a consummation is for us to know each
other better and to realize that we are all
Americans. Yours respectfully,
J. Aldger Smith.
Mayor Charleston, S. C.

South Macon Dots
Mr. James Hightower is seriously ill
with consumption at his home near Wav
erly church, South Macon.
The infant daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
Charles R. Avant has been in a loiw state
of health for several weeks at their home
■ait Newburg. She is believed to be im
proving, however.
Miss Ella Avant is suffering consider
a'blj- from the effects of irritation of the
optical chord of the eyes, probably brought
about by continuous reading by lamp light,
■she being an inveterate “book worm.” It
is hoped, however, she will soon recover
sufficiently to resume her studies at the
Georgia-Alabama Commencia'l College.
Mrs. IS. E. Avant returned last Friday
from a 'week’s visit to relatives and friends
at Cordele and vicinity.
Willie Avant, of company L. Third
Georgia, is at home on a short furlough.
He will return to Griffin next Monday
morning.
Superintendent Paschal is having the
Houston roiad fixed Uip in apple pie order.
We are expecting every day, as it were,
to see him tackle the sidewalk at the
South Macon public school and place it in
such condition that the students and
teachers may pass over it with ease, con
venience 'and saftey. We feel safe in
promising that Mr. Paschal will have said
sidewalk put in first-class condition as
•soon as he reaches school street with his
repairing gang, which will be in a very
few days, if he continues coming in the
direction of the city.
South Macon people are pround of their
school and justly so, as it is a conceded
fact that it is one of the best and most
flourishing schools in 'Bibb county, which
is saying a great deal when we .take into
consideration that Bibb Is the banner
school .county of the grand old state o's
Georgia. Tho total enrollment of 'South
Macon ’school last year was 390 students,
this year it will reach 400. A general write- ,
up of the schools and churches of South
Macon will be given one evening next
week. “Smith.”

Men’s All
Wool Suits
A first-rate busi
ness suit is here for
$7-50.
It is proven to be all
wool by absolute test. The
color is right and will >
• right. The garments are
sewed with silk and no $lO
or sl2 is better made. It has '
taken hard thinking and plan
ning to make such a suit in
' fall weight and keep the
price so little.
It is a suit to judge this
i clothing store by. Our finer
grades at
|sio, sl2 and sls
are equally as cheap con
sidering the quality.
Three
Overcoats
i For three degrees of
weather we have three de
j grees of overcoats —light, me
dium and heavy. Light for
I the early autumn, good for
next spring. Medium for the
particular, careful-of-his
health man, who finds the
light not heavy enough and
the heavy too heavy. Heavy
for the cold, bracing weather
when warmth and comfort
are the considerations.
All the correct cloths
correctly fashioned in all the
three kinds.
$5 to $lB.
Our Small
Boys’ Corner
is growing more at
tractive every day. It isn’t
the furniture, oh, no. Not
the paint, nor the.frills of any
kind. It’s the new clothes.
It’s the furnishings more than
anything else and the way we
sell them.
Suits, $1.50 to 5
