ARE THEYCOMING?
Persistent Rumors of Other
Regiments Ordered Here.
SOME POSSIBLE GRANGES
It May Be That Regiments From
Albany and Americus Will Be
Transferred.
The rumors increase that the troops now
5n other cam pt are io be ordered here.
Yesterday the reports were confined to
the regiments at Knoxville, but today the
•birds are telling that there may be trans
fers from Americus and Albany.
It is also hinted that there may be a
wletachment from Lexington, Ky., sent to
the Central City.
The officers are non-committal, but the
liberal investments being made in water
•pipe would indicate that the government,
•population may have in view of dpr v
if not intending to increase Macon's camp
population may have the idea in view of
making the camps more permanent.
There seems to be something in the
wind, and the people may not be surprised
to see more soldier trains rolling in every
day..
There, is increasing satisfaction among
both officers and men with the Macon lo
cation and it is quite probable that some
strong recommendations have been sent
to the war department.
Another and the last shipment of gent’s
touee coats and jackets received today.

er Not in Session.

Judge Felton is out of the city and con
sequently no session of the superior court
is being held. The city court is in session
however, but nothing of importance has
come up. The case of Gordon vs. Dolvin

non-suited. The case of the Everett
Flour and Grain Company vs. Freeman &
Jones, brokers, was taken up, but it will
not be completed before this afternoon.
There was no session of the recorder's
court this morning. Judge Freeman failed
To put in his appearance at half past ten
o’clock, the usual hour for the court to be
called to order. The prisoners were car
ried intp the court room, but the judge did
not come. The officers waited and still
the judge did not cppie, and at last ac
counpf several officers werg in the court
guarding the prisoners and they say they
expect to stay there until the judge ar
rives.
Only five cases are to be tried however, |
and when Judge Freeman does come in it
will not take long to dispose of them. All
of them are for drunk ami dieorderly con
duct. Three negro women are up on the
•charage of disorderly conduct, It see ma
■that they raised a disturbance on one of
the ears last night and the conductor put
them oft and had cases preferred against
them,

Erysipelas
Two Diseases That Cause Their
Victims to Bs Shunned by
Their Fellow-Man.
BERING FIELD. MO.
Gentlemen : I commenced taking 1 P..
P. P., Lippman’s Great Remedy, last
Fall, for Erysipelas. My face was com
pletely covered with the disease ; I took
a short course of P. P. P., and it soon
disappeared. This Spring I became
much debilitated and again took an
other course, and I am now in good
condition. I consider P. P. P. one of
the best blood preparations on the
market, and for those who need a gen
eral tonic to build up the system and
Improve the appetite I consider that it
has no equal. Will say, anyone who
aares to try P. P. P. will not be disap
pointed In its results, and I, therefore,
•hearfully recommend it.
ARTHUR WOOD,
Springfield, Mo,
Erysipelas and Scrofula cured by P.
P. P., Lippman’s ( reat Remedy, surely
and without fail.
SPRINGFIELD, Mfl,
Gentlemen: Last June I had a
scrofulous sore which broke out on my
ankle. It grew rapidly, and soon ex
tended from my ankle to my knee. I
got one bottle of your P. P. P.,Lipp
man's Great Remedy, and was agree
ably surprised at the result. The entire
sore healed at once. I think I have
taken almost every medicine recom
mended for scrofula and catarrh, and
your P. P. P. is the best I have ever
tried. It cannot be recommended too
highly for blood poison, etc.
Yours very truly,
W. P. HUNTER.
F. P. P. cures all blood and skin dis- !
ease, both in men and women.
Rheumatism, which makes man’s life '
a hell upon earth, can be relieved at
once by r. P. P., Lippman’s Great Rem
edy. It makes a PERMANENT cure.
P. P. P. is the great and only remedy
tor advanced cases of catarrh. Stop-
Sago of the nostrils and difficulty in 1
reathing when lying down, P. P. P. j
relieves at once.
P. P. P. cures blood poisoning in all
He various stages, old ulcers, sores and
Wdney complaints.
