THE M. & G. EXTENSION.
THE LAND GRANT FORFEITURE BILL HAS
NO EFFECT.
It has been stated in several papers in
the State that the passage of the land
grant forfeiture bill has jeodardized the
construction of the Mobile and Girard ex
tension from Troy to Brewton or some
other point on the Louisville and Nash
ville railroad.
As a matter of fact, the land grant for
feiture bill no more effects the building of
the Mobile and Girard extension than if it
had never been introduced.
The Van Kirk Land and Construction
Company are building the branch, and Mr.
J. P. Knabe, of Montgomery, is the secre
tary aud treasurer. In a conversation with
a reporter of the Advertiser as to the effect
the passage of the bill would have, Mr.
Knabe said:
“The Mobile and Girard Railroad Com
pany,” said he, “was originally granted,
by act of Congress, 304,000 acres of Gov
ernment land in the various counties
through which it was designated to run.
Eighty-four miles of the road has been
constructed, and to that extent the act of
Congress has been complied with. As the
act allowed 120 sections of 640 acres each
for every twenty miles of road, the railroad
company has actually earned 322,560 acres,
leaving only 181,340 acres unearned, and
which will be forfeited by the bill just
“But even if the bill forfeited all of the
land,” he continued, “that would have
nothing in the world to do with the exten
sion. The Van Kirk Land and Construc
tion Company have given their notes and
executed their contracts for the road bed
and ties, and have the guarantee of the
Central Railroad and Banking Company
of Georgia that as soon as the road bed is
complete and the ties are down, they will
lay the rail. Messrs. Worthington, Elli
ott and DeBardeleben have the con
tract for the grading from Troy to
Andalusia, and the balance of the work
is yet to be let. The work is now being
pushed as fast as men and money can do
it. There are over four hundred men on
the work and the contract specifies that
everything between Troy and Andalusia,
except laying the rails, shall be completed
in about ten months from this date, and
the probabilities are that the work will
be finished even sooner than that. In view
of these facts, I was rather surprised to
see a telegram in the papers purporting to
come from Washington, saying the passage
of the bill jeopardized the extension when
it was so easy to ascertain the true state
of affairs.”
EXPOSITION TALK.
CHAT ABOUT PEOPLE
WHO ARE COMING AND GOING AND HAVE
GONE.
Mr. Lee McLendon, of Valdosta, is au
tographed at the Rankin.
Captain and Mrs. A. P. Lucas will go to

CHAPPELL FEMALE COLLEGE
BEGINS ITS NEXT SESSION MONDAY—FINE
PROSPECTS.
Chappell College begins its fourth'annual
session next Monday morning. The En
quirek-Sun is glad to hear that the out
look for the institution is unusually bright
for the coming year. It is certain that
the attendance will be even larger than
ever before, which is saying a great deal,
for the school has always enjoyed a most
liberal patronage. No better school for
the education of girls and young ladies
can be found in the country, and it richly
deserves the generous support it receives
from the citizens of Columbus. The num
ber of pupils from a distance will be much
larger this year than ever before. Several
have already arrived, and many more will
come in between now and Monday morn
ing and during the early part of next
week. The Enquirer-Sun joins with the
people of Columbus generally in wishing
to the collese a year of great prosperity
and happiness.
Hamilton’s New Church.—The dedi
cation of the new Baptist church will take
place on Sunday next. The dedication
sermon will be preached by Dr. G. A. Nun-
nally, president of Mercer University, Ma
con, Ga. The occasion will be one of
great religious interest, and the ser
mon will be such as to edify and
instruct. Dr. Nunnally stands at
the head of the list of Baptist divines
and ranks with any in the State. A
man of deep piety and learning, loved and
respected by all who know him. The lay
ing of the corner stone will be attended to
on Saturday before. The ceremonies will
be performed by Dr. G. A. Nunnally, Ma
con; Revs. R. H. Harris, Columbus; C. C.
Willis, Muscogee county, and W. W. Ar
nold, pastor of the church, and others.
This will be a most interesting occasion,
and all are invited to witness the laying of
the corner-stone and to attend the services
on Sunday.—Hamilton Journal.

The District Senatorial Conven
tion.—The Senatorial convention for the
Twenty-fourth district will be held at the
conrt house in this city next Thursday.
The official call for the convention is
printed in the Weekly Enquirer-Sun
today and will appear in the Daily tomor
row.
Hon. LaFayette narp, Chattahoochee
county’s choice for the Senatorship, was
in the city yesterday. When asked about
his preference for the United States Sena
torship, Mr. Harp replied that he desired
to represent the people of the entire dis
trict, and, not knowing the sentiment of
the people fully on this subject, he de
clines to commit himself at this time.
Water fob Babies.—A physician
writes urgently to the New York World
on behalf of infants. He says: Permit
me to call the attention of mothers who
have children unable to talk to the neces
sity of giving them a little cold water fre
quently. They suffer from thirst equally
with us, but they are helpless and dumb.
They can only cry and mourn. The
mother wonders what can ail them,
searches for pins, offers them food and
exhausts her patience in hunting for the
cause. The torments of thirst which they
suffer bring on a severe and often serious
illness, which sixty drops of cold water
would prevent. Every person who under
stands this shonld urge upon mothers the
SOME POINTS GATHERED AT EXPOSITION
HEADQUARTERS YESTERDAY.
The Red Men are busy making prepara
tions for a grand pageant at the Exposi
tion. Tribes from all of the neighboring
cities will take part in the program, which
is being arranged for the occasion.
Mr. J. B. Walker, a prominent farmer
of Marion county, was among the visitors
at Exposition headquarters yesterday.
Mr. Walker reports that his county will
have a magnificent exhibit at the Exposi
tion.
The Hamilton Journal makes the fol
lowing strong appeal in behalf of the Har
ris county exhibit:
“We feel a deep interest in the exhibit
that Harris county will make in the Chat
tahoochee Valley Exposition. We feel
anxious and hope that every single indi
vidual who feel sa just pride in the success
of such a home enterprise as this will con
fer at once with Capt Fort and let him
know just what you have, and what you
can furnish for the exhibit. Don’t wait
until the time is too short to make your
preparation, and then say you could
have done so and so if you had started in
time. Bring on the best you have and
you will find in the end that what you
have is better than that of others. Any
person wishing to make an individual dis
play can do so by bringing it to Capt. Fort
and having it entered along with and in
the county display. Now, farmers, mer
chants, mechanics, men, women and chil
dren, let’s all unite and show to the world
what Harris county is and what she can
produce. It will advertise your county
better than anything you can do.
In speaking of the Exposition the
Columbia Record says:
Columbia must be properly represented
at the Southern Exposition and the Chat
tahoochee Valley Exposition. Closer com-
marcial relations between Columbia and
Columbus, and Montgomery, must be
obtained, and Columbia must do her part
to that end.
GRIFFIN NOTES.
Griffin, September 19.—[Special.]—
The result of the primary election for
county officers last Tuesday was so close
that the Democratic executive committee
has been requested to meet tomorrow at
the court house in Griffin and recount the
votes. For the office of Treasurer, Mr. R.
H. Johnson received two votes more than
Mr. J. C. Brooks, the present incumbent,
and Mr. Joshua Hammond received four
teen more votes than Mr. R. A. Hardee,
our present Tax Receiver. The difference
is so small that the recount seems neces
sary to give satisfaction, after which count
harmony will prevail.
Yesterday a little white girl in Spalding
county, eleven years old, picked 309 pounds
of cotton. This record is hard to beat for
one of so tender years.
Griffin now has a Young Men’s Christian
Association, with a good round member
ship. Some of our best young men are
active members.
The clouds look threatening this morn
ing, and a good rain would be welcomed
by everybody, as it is getting quite dusty.
Mr. T. B. Reams, of Concord, has pur
chased the Crocker residence, on Poplar
street, and will soon move back to Griffin.
The frame work of the Central’s new
depot is now up and work is progressing
satisfactorily. This structure, when com
pleted, will be a beauty and no doubt will
give perfect satisfaction to the citizens of
Griffin and the Central railroad people.
The Griffin Canning Factory has already
pnt up 30,000 cans of tomatoes and are
still working away. Capt. W. H. Hart
well, the president, had this year 100 acres
planted in this vegetable, and says tomatoe
culture beats cotton.

morning at 9:30 o’clock to make necessary

Deafness Can’t be Cored
by local applications, as they cannot reach the
eyo
diseased portion of the ear. There is only one
way to care deafness, and that is by constitu
tional remedies. Deafness is caused by an in
flamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eus
tachian Tube. When this tube gets inflamed yon
have a rumbling sound of imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed Deafness is the re
sult, and unless the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal condi
tion. hearing will be destroyed forever: nine
cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is
nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous
surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case
of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that we cannot
cure by taking Hall’s Catarrh Core. Send for

A new way to make money. Boys, girls, men,
women, everybody can make money. How?
Why, by simply hunting up their old letters of
their fathers, granpfather, or, in fact, any very
old le ters that have a stamp on them. I buy for
cash ad kinds of old postage stamps, Confederate
States and United States stain; s issued before
1865 preferred. Hunt up the old trunks and look
through them, it will cost you nothing, and yon
may find something worth money to you. A11
varieties of old stamps are most valuable when
preserved on the entire envelope. Put them u|

You’ve gotter be up to snuff. It takes ennnin
instid of force. It’s the same trouble with buy
ing goods to sell again. It’s all in the way yon
do it. There’s many a man worth two millions to
my one that can’t give you the bargains of 3,000
volts such as I hand out to you on a waiter while
yon wait every day in the year. I ain’t much ou
force, hut when it comes to strategem and scheni
mg and lying—in wait for a golden hoppertunity
to stick its head out of its hole, I’m a whole
team with a yaller dog under the wagon. I found
that out when I was eaut by a coachwhip snake
one day. When just as he was about to tie me
aud fall to and everlastingly larrup the fillin'
outer my negligee briches I slipped a imitation
rubber king snake outer my pocket and run the
dad shamed willun plum outer his native state—
i. e., the slate of self-confidence in which he had
been living—into a state of terror, and he had to
pay the penalty of his nerve by crawling around
over the country till he wore all the skin rif his
stomach hunting a “snake doctor” to
get a dose of anty piereen
quiet his nervous apprehension. But it was onlv
to illustrate my position that I lugged the family
affairs of an erring brother—I mean of course
that it is only to show you how I stand in the
bargain world that I yanked the sacred veil of
obscurity offen the domestic concerns of a mis
taken snake—who no doubt ere this is suffering
all tha pangs of a serpentine conscience loader
down with a double dose of remorse kept alive
aud fanned into flames of fury by
a skint stomach, the high price of vaseline
and the scoffs and jeers of a cold-hearted aud
unsympathising world. I got there in great
shape on that last paragraph, didn’t I? That’s
the way I get there on vases. I’ve got more dif
ferent kinds of vases and finer vases 8nd more of
’em to boot than you can shake a stick at.
don’t ax the McKinly bill or any other bill any
odds as for as this season is concerned. The
same cunniDg that I indulged in when
I got into a berootia with the above
snake caused me to buy ny vases
in Jaunary last and get ’em in aud salted away
before the Republican party drapped onto m
little game. As soon as they found out what
had whirled in and done, I tell you right between
me aud everybody else, they were the shamedest
crowd you ever see. 1 treated ’em the same way
abont all my toys. It may have been taking an
advantage that wasn’t due—I mean an undue
advantage of the g. o. p.- but I’m so snakey I
just—ha! ha! hoopee! Honestly. I couldn’t
help it. Oh. what a willun
am! But as far as shaving soap is concerned
I’ve got it handy. Thats the name of it. Handy
Shaving Soap. Pnt up in nice boxes with kivers
and bottoms to em. All for 10c. As proof of its
virtue, 1 have only to say that Ed .erryusesit
>gether in shaving folks—at least he said ‘
would do it pretty soon. Ed is our barber and a
good one too. If all the negroes in this country
got a move on ’em like Ed and all the white folks
got a hustling hump hitched to ’em like your un
cle 10 cenls Holloway we would have a
country here that you read about. Now don’t
think that Ed will take offense bekase I called
him a negro. Ed has horse sense aud don’t no
mor. mind being called by the name of his race
than I mind being called a
