AT POLICE STATION.
An Interesting Case Before the Recorder
this Morning.
Another inter..ng • ise was before the
recorder in the police court this morning.
Mr. I'rank Mosely, who has been working
for ,'hc prohibitionists in the same manner
a-. Gunn and Warren Mas. ley did. was up
on tin- charge of disorderly conduct. A
man named Bunnisur claimed that he
came to his house under the pretense of
being .1 United States detective and want
d to know of his wife how long lie had
been living tn the city.
.Moseley Was arrvs'ed yesterday by De
teeiiv. s Plunkett and Dumas on the
eharg <>f disorderly conduit. He was de
fended in the police court this morning
bv Mm i- w lit. r Grace and Clem I’.
Steed. The testimony of the witnesses
uhowed that Mpseky had impersonated an
officer but failed to show where he had
been disorderly. Both .Mr. Grace and .Mr.
Steed made strong arguments in favor of
their client, but Judge Freeman held that
the men had no right to go to the houses
under pretense of being an officer and de
manding to know of people their ages and
their time of residence in the city.
Judge Freeman said that he would sus
pend the sentence of Mr. Moseley until
tlio superior court decided on the other
two ea/s which were similar to the case
this morning.
It 'will bi remembered that the case of
Gunn and Burkett was appealed to the
superior court, and they .ire now pending.

A Sure Sign of Croup.
Hoarseness in a child that is subject to
croup is a sure indication of the approach
of that disease. If Chamberlain’s Couch
Remedy is given as soon as the child be- 1
comes hoarse, or even after the croupy
cough has appeared, it will prevent the
attack. Many mothere who have croupy
children always keep this remedy at hand
and find that it saves them much trouble
and worry. It can always be depended
upon and is pleasant to take.. For sale

ONLY TWO DAYS MORE
City Registration Books Will Close Wednes
day. I
The registration books for the city elec
tion which will be held on December 10th.
•will close on Wednesday. The books will
have been open a month on that date. The
total number of voters registered up to
three o’clock this afternoon is 850, which
is considered very small by the city offi
cials.
It is thought, however, that the regis
trars will be worked very hard the two
days that the books are open, as there are
many voters who always wait until the
last moment to register. Over 150 voters
have registered today, which goes to show
that the people are becoming interested.

THEY WANT
SEPARATE CARS
Citizens of Vineville Complain
at Consolidated Street
Car Service.
NEGROES MONOPOLIZE
The Cars at Present—Ladies Stren
uously Object to Riding on
Mixed Cars.
The residents of Vineville are making
quite a complaint against the Consolidated
Street Car Railway for failing to provide
separate cans for negroes.
They assert, with a good deal of feeling,
tha t the Consolidated’s patronage has fully
doubled since the negro soldiers went into
camp near the Laboratory, and they think
it only night that extra provision be made
for handling this increased patronage.
It is understood that the Consolidated
has put on a few extra “trailers,” but
seemingly no effort is made to separate the
races, eo that the trouble is quite as bad
as if there were no extra cars on the line.
The Consolidated’s Vineville patrons are
are quite indignant at this state of affairs,
and demand separate cans for the negroes.
. Numerous instances are cited, where la
t dies living in that section of the city have
been forced, to leave the cars, rather than
be the sole occupant thereof along with a
car full of negroes.
, The negroes, it is true, are fairly well
• 'behaved, but no lady feels entirely at ease
- in a crowd of the-m, and, besides, the ob-
> jection is obvious. Unless the Consolida
ted’s management makes some immediate
change, it is quite probable that the citi
zens of Vineville will take active steps to
secure separate cars.
ELECTION
1
Is Only Off—Both
Sides Are at Work.
The prohibition election Is now only
four days off. The lolls will be open at
. the different precincts on Thursday morn-
> ing at 7o'clock, 'aind a large cjrowd of vo
ters will be on hand to cast their ballots.
Both sides are now at work in earnest and
_> are putting in their best licks during the
last few days.
s Each side has consented to have an
equal number of managers at the polls on
the day of the election and it is thought
’ by this that there wil be no charges of
■ fraud. The fact that the prohibitionists
i will have ladies at the polls has caused
. a great deal of talk during the last two
t days. The anti men claim that it will be
1 a great intimidation and that the ladies
will be placed in a very embarrassing po
sition. It is said that the ladies of At-
I lanta went to the polls when the .prohi
bition election was held in that city a few
; years ago and that they did good work.
It looks as if the 'Macon ladies intend
to do the same thing.
r It is certain that they will
? have lunches at the polls for the people
i who vote the prohibition ticket. It is said
I that some of the most prominent ladies in
the city will be at the polls on the day
of election and that the intend to do good
1 work.
Rev. Sam Jones is expected here on
Wednesday, but it is doubtful as to
whether he can come. He is at present in
Illinois, conducting a series of meetings.
’ and it is thought that it will be impossi
; ble for him to leave.
Rev. Dr. Wharton arrived in the city
i yesterday and conducted the. services at
the tent last night. He will continue to
’ hold these services until the last day of
I the campaign and will be ably asisted by
Rev. Sam W. Small. Dr. Wharton made
many friends by his excellent lecture last
. flight, and it is claimed that he won many
1 to the side of the prohibitionists.
It has been said that the presence of the
troops here has done a great deal towards
f helping the cause of the prohibitionists.
This, however, seems to be untrue, as
on the streets since they have been
*- canined here.
r .The anti-prohibitionists held a meeting
j in South 'Macon night before last. It was
f attended by a large crowd. Several
» speeches were made and the gathering
t was one of she most enthusiastic that has
been seen in the city for Some time.
The antis held another meeting in East
• Macon last night. Many people were pres
ent. Mr. George Ketchum addresed the
metiijg. The crowd present was an anti
crovad altogether and a great deal of en-
, thusiasm prevailed.

PANSY CIRCLE.
An Enthusiastic'Meeting Held this Morn
ing.
The Pansy Circle held an enthusiastic
meeting at -the Library this morning. All
of the members were present and the
young ladies were enthusiastic over the
plans adopted at the last meeting in re
gard to give the children of the Kinder
garten Association a Christmas tree.
Other arrangements were made and com
mittees were appointed to see that the
plans were carried out. Another meeting
will be held next Saturday.
IMPORTANT PROPOSITIONS.
To Be Discussed this Afternoon Before the
Chamber of Commerce.
It is expected that the Chamber of Com
merce meeting late this afternoon will be
one of unusual public interest from the
fact that it was understood this morning
that resolutions in opposition to the pro
hibition movement would be introduced
and discussed.
In addition to the program of the meet- ’
ing included a proposition for the appoint
ment of a committee to wait on President
McKinley upon his arrival in Atlanta and
to urge that he pay a visit to Macon on his
way to Savannah, and also a proposition
for the appointment of another committee
to arrange for a public reception, in honor
of the military officers now in Macon, and
under the auspices of the Chamber.

camp groud that has ever been seen in.
i Macon. All of the company streets re
semble a paved street and all of them are
as neat as a parlor floor. The Engineers
pride themselves on the fact that they are
noted for pretty camps. The men say that
they can make a pretty camp anywhere
and that the location makes no difference
as to the looks of the place.
All of the regiments have drill grounds
| except the Second Ohio and a ground will
be found for them in the next few days,
i regiments and they are witnessed by
| many people who go out from the city
especially to see the drills.
The first soldier to die since the troops
have been camped here was a colored sol
dier by the name of Sam Bland. He died
yesterday at the division hospital. He had
been sick some time before coming here
and his death was not unexpected by the
surgeons. He was a member of Co. C of
the Tenth Immunes. and is said to have
been a model soldier. His remains were
turned over to Undertaker Keating, who
prepared them for burial.
Major Rodman is still working on the
case of the two negro officers who killed
the private soldier in Knoxville and it is
very probable that a courtmartial will be
held. The officers of the regiment say
that the killing was done in self defense
and that rtiey will be acquitted by a court
martial. The members of the private’s
company say that they will make'it hot
for the officers if they come back into that
regiment, and it is now necessary for
them to stay in the camp of the Tenth
Imunes.
The Krag-Jorgenson rifles are being dis
tributed among the troops. As soon as the
corps is armed with tne new guns the
Springfields will be shipped to the Rock
Island arsenal and kept for the state
• troops.
The men are busy today making floors
for their tents. The lumber which was
ordered by the quartermaster some time
ago has arrived and is being issued to
each of the regiments. Tent stoves will
also be furnished the men in a few days.

WORKING ON MULBERRY,
The Street is Being Put in Shape for Pav
ing.
A large force of hands began work on
Mulberry street this morning getting it
in readiness for the brick pavement which
is to be laid soon. The work was begun
in front of the government building. The
street is being ploughed up and the dirt
hauled away.
The contractor says that it will take
over a month to get the street paved.

one of the prettiest in the city.
