4 M. KSffl TO GIVE GRAND HH HEBE. General Wilson Said this Morning that the Review Would Probably Be Held-MII Take Place on the Streets of Macon, WET WEATHER Makes the Men Gloomy and All of Them Are Remain ing in Camp. SEVENTH IMMUNES HERE, Will be Followed by the Third North Carolina All the Troops Will be in Camp by Thursday Night Camp Notes. Major General Wilson, who is in com ma nJ of th First Army Corps, said to a News r.-porter this morning that there would probably be a review here at an early date. ••y.r,” sa l General Wilson, “we will have reviews, parades and music here all the time, and it is probable that there will 1h a grand review of the six regiments that are to be in camp here. The streets of Macon yvill make an excellent place and so will the race track at the park. I have been thinking of the matter for some lime, and it is very probable that it will ibe done.” The review which was held at Knox ville some time ago drew large crowds to that city, and if the review is held here, ■there is no doubt that many people will come in from all parts of the state'. The si reels and park, as suggested by Gener al Wilson, would make an excellent place for the review to be held, and from all in dications it now looks* as if the parade will I'eally take place. Another gloomy day for the soldiers. All of the men are feeling blue today over the wet weather. Very few of them come into the city, and all are remaining in their tents at the camp. The camps are not so muddy as before, as they have been grad ed and sloped so that the water will run off. Several of the army wagons camo into the city this morning for supp Mes, and be wides th. soldiers who came in on them Mind the men on provost duty very few other soldiers have been seen in the city. It seems as if the weather is against the soldiers, for just as they begin to get their camp-, ii. good shape it begins to ram and the work has to be postponed. The ‘coops iraae been remarkably order ly for the past few days, and no disorder has occurred since Saturday night when the Sixth V’rgina attempted to lake the prove t guard. The regiment is still under guard and the leaders are in the guard house. Tile armstand ammunition of the soldiers has been brought into the city find •they will be kept under guard until Gen eral Wilson sees (It Io release them. The provost guard has had little trouble 1n the past few days and very few arrests ‘have been made. The soldiers have be gun to realize that the guard means busi ness. and in addition to that they have Uncle Sam Io back I hem up. Captain Smoke, of the quartermaster's department Is one of the busiest men in the city. He is in his office from morning until night and keeps a large force of clerks constantly at work. Ho has charge of all of the stores, lumber and other articles that arc issued to the regiments, land he is kept busy giving* them out. The division hospital now has five pa tients. The men were brought in yester day. None of them are seriously ill. how ever, and the physicians in charge say that they will soon recover. The division hos pital -is one of jhe best equipped hospitals tn the country, and the men who are car ried there are sure to receive ’the best of (treatment. The report that Colonel Kruet, of the Second Ohio, is to be courtmart inled, seems to bo without foundation. The fact that ho allowed his men to come into the city on the night of his arrival, seems to have been the only humane thing that could have been done, and ho has been complimented by both the citizens and the officers for his kindness in allowing the men to come into the city to sleep ■when there was no place for them at the camp. The regiment arrived here in a terrible rain shower. The Seventh Immune regiment arrived in the city this afternoon in six sections. The troops came in over the Southern and were transferred to the Central and car trie*! to their camp grounds at the Huff place. . Soldier Notes in Camp and City. General W. J. McKee has returned from Knoxville and will assume command of his brigade at once. For the present his head quarters are at the Hotel Lanier. General Wilson stated this morning that the rumor that he had written to Wash ington for instructions in regard to pun ishing the Sixth Virginia regiment was tintrue. He said that he was vested with the authority to punish and that he would not apply to the department for Instruc tions. He said that the arms had been taken from the negroes because they had no use for them and besides they did not know how to handle them. The five men who are .in the division hospital are not very sick and the surgeons say they will be out in a few days. Nearly all of the men of the First Geor gia regiment who live out of the city, have returned to their homes. None of the of vnt?ers except those who live in the city lire heixe. i ■' General VWilson said this morning that Colonel Kuyrt had done nothing that would warrant a Apart martial and that the ru mor that was* going the rounds was un true. He saV s that he is at a loss to know where a aborning paper got its in formation. \ General Bates will\ probably move his headquarters out to the eamps Friday. The First Army Cofps has some of the prettiest offices in th A city. All of them are nicely arranged ( and are comfortably furnished. ) ~ ACADEMY TONIGHT. Hoyt’slMilk White Flag is the Attraction for Tonight. Hoyt’s “A Milk White Flag" Company arrived in the city this morning and a most entertaining performance mar be looked forward to at the Academy of Mu sic tonight. The company Jias received strong en dorsements from the press all along its elrcuii, and it is said to be stronger than ever before. It is one of Hoyt's best and that is saying a good deal for it. CITY OF MACON. Raised and at Her Dock in Brunswick—Wil Come Here Soon. President George A. Smith, of the (Ma con Navigation Company, received a tele gram this morning from Brunswick an nouncing that the City of Macon, which went down a few weeks ago off Bruns wick, was at her dock. This will be good news for the stockhol ders of the company, who have been un easy for sime time past. The boat will be put in the dry dock at Brunswick and will be given a thorough overhauling. Air. Smith says that the boat will be here in about two weeks under her own steam, and will again commence her reg ular trips. Subscriptions for the stock for a new boat is still going on, and Mr. Smith says that he hopes to have a new steamer on the river dn a short time. AT GOVERNMENT BUILDING. Happenings of the Day in the United States Court. Commissioner Erwin was kept busy for some time this morning on the case of Jack Connell, of Jefferson county,who was tried on the charge of illicit distilling. The man was arrested in Jefferson county by- Deputy Marshal Whitely, of Augusta. lie was carried to Augusta for trial, but the Commissioner at that place wae sick, and it was necessary to bring the man to Ma con. He plead not guilty to the charge, but the evidence was too strong against him and he was bound over to the Uni ted Stales court under a S3OO bond. He was carried back to Augusta and will be placed in jail. Judge Emory Speer has isued an order which prohibits smoking on the second floor of the government building. The grand jurors and traverse jurors have been summoned and will meet on December 1. PROHIBITION Workers Were Out in Various Parts of City Last Night. The prohibitionists still continue their meetings. The tent was given up to the colored people last night and the meeting was addressed by Rev. E. R. Carter a prominent colored Baptls of At lanta. Carter has the reputation of being one of the best negro orators in the South. Hon. Dupont Guerry was in charge of the meeting in Vineville for the white people. He essayed to answer the interview of Mr. A. Block, which, appeared in the At lanta Journal several days ago. In East, Macon the meeting was in charge of Hon. N. E. Harris and Rev. R. R. A\ hite. In South Macon the meeting was conducted by Hon. C. ,A. Turner and Rev. J. L. White. All of the meetings were largely attend ed by people of both sides. The prohibi tionists are working hard and claiming that they will carry the county by a large majority. The antis are not idle, how ever, and they are also claiming the vic tory by 1,500 majority. Rev. Sam iW. Small will also make sevenfl adresses before the election comes off. The first of December is only ten days off, and the indications are that ‘Ma con will have an election that will attract attention throughout the country. Both sides are determined. but no trouble is an ticipated. The managers at the polls will be equally divided, so that there can be no claim of a fraudulent count. Go to W. L.

(Communicated.) GINGER JAGS IN MARYLAND How Prohibition Works in the Eastern Part of That State. DRUNKENNESS Still Exists, and Even Worse Than Before—Licensed Sale of Li quor is Best. The following special to the “Philadel phia Time®,” under date of November 16, offers a striking commentary on the effi cacy of prohibition; GINGER JAG KILLS TWO. Use of the Drug as a Substitute for Whisky Increasing in Local Option Counties in Maryland. Special Telegram to the Times. Aaston, Aid., Nov. 16.—Jamaica ginger jags are increasing in number on the Eastern Shore, particularly in local op tion counties. There were two deaths in Oxford last week, caused by drinking gin ger, taken as a substitute for whisky. The first to die was one Terry, a peri patetic individual, who spent most of his time in Oxford. It is said that he has a wife and children, but their residence is unknown. John Cousins was the other victim of this pernicious habit.” The foregoing is only one of the many instances that offer striking'evidence that human appetites cannot be regulated by law. You can lead men, but they will not be driven—force always leads men to seek a means of evading it, and as a result, ‘lawlessness and crime are given a greater | impetus. In Kansas from 1870 to 1880, under a li cense system there were 1,808 convicts sent to the penitentiary, or one committal for every 343 of increased population. During the prohibition period from 1880 to 1890 t'here was 3.428 admissions to the pen itentiary, or one committal for every 130 of increased population , an increase of nearly two hundred per cent. The officoial staticties in every state where prohibition has been tried, prove that there is no such connection between the consumption of liquor and crime as the prohibitionists claim. Maine is the original prohibition state. A fair trial has been given to the prohibi tion law. AVhat are the results? According to the census reports, Maine has more cnime, more paupers, more debt and less wealth in proportion to -her population than any other state in the Union. CASTOR IA For Infants and Children. The Kind You Have Always Bought COMPLETE PRODUCTION Os “Faust” Will Be Given at the Academy Next Saturday. A -cardinal production in the coming production of “Faust” is its magnificent scenic completeness. Never in the history of this famous play has it been presented here in as perfectly- uniform manner a now. From the time the curtain rises upon the dark sepulchral cell of Doctor Faustus, until it falls upon the beautiful tableaux of the “Apotheosis,” it is a series of elab orate spectacular transformations, rang ing from ecclesiastic solemnity to diaboli cal weirdness. Special attention has been given to the electrical and mechanical features. In the garden scene tin electric display of dazzling splgndor is introduced, pronounced to be the most novel ever pre sented upon the stage. Again, in the Brocken scene, all the skill and ingenuity of the stage mechanic’s art is ‘brought into requisition, in,addition to a represen tation of many new and startling electrical effects. As a positive guarantee that these effects will be presented as ‘advertised, two complete sets of hatteries are carried by the company, so that in the event of an accident occurring no disappointment will be experienced in witnessing this, the greatest spectacular production of “Faust” ever given upon the American stage. •Lewis Morrison, the original and great “Mephisto,”’ will appear at every- per formance in the character that has made him famous, and will, upon this occasion, make his farewell bow in this wonderful play. The supporting company is of ex ceptional merit and the musical features are especially meritorious. C-A-jsTomyv. Bears the The Kinll You ave Alwa ? s B° lI 2 fl{ Sig T’ Rubber boots for soldiers.
