Enterprising citizens of Douglas
have determined that a railroad shall
come to that place iu the the near
future, about ninety days at farther

pletion of tho tram road which con¬
nects with tho Brunswick and West¬
ern railroad at McDonald’s mill.
The Waycros* experimental tobacco
farm, which was so promising in its
first and second year, has been aban¬
doned and the industry is regarded by
muny as a failure. There is no gain¬
saying tho fact that the plant can be
successfully grown, however, as the ex¬
periments of two years have proved
that conclusively. The owner of the
farm leased it to a farmer, who made
a fine crop of corn and hay on it last
year.
Beveral of the officers recently elect¬
ed by the populists in Taylor county
have failed to give bond and have re¬
turned their commissions to Governor
Atkinson, They were C. A. J. Pope,
sheriff; A. B. Peed, treasurer; J. E.
Brewer, coroner; B. If. Newsome, sur¬
veyor. Mr. Popo has held tho place
of sheriff for more than twonty years,
under democratic rule, but two years
ago ho Joined the populists, and has
heretofore had no troub’e to make his
bond. Al( tho above were re-elected
except Mr. Brewer. A new election
will be ordered at uu early date.
The people in Augusta, according
to a correspondent, are taking no in¬
terest in the matter of the congres¬
sional election. Tho lack of interest
is attributed to the belief that llie
election will not be held in April, as
Mr. Watson anticipates. The people
aro tired of elections, having lmd so
many or 1 hem- in the lust twelve
months, and they are not at all aux
ioUB to stir Iho campaign just at pres¬
ent for tho reason that it seriously in¬
terferes with business and interrupts
trade, and there is now only two
months more for tho merchants to do
what little business there remains to
be done until next fall.

taken a few days ago which proved
a bomb in the camp of the bond¬
holders. When tho order of sale was
taken two months ago it was thought
that no obstruction to tho sale would
be made. But tho attorneys for the
Savannah, Americas and Montgomery
have boon at work aud have prepared
a voluminous bill of excejitious. The
case will, therefore, go to the supreme
court, and until a decision there is
made, the sale will bo indefinitely

Southern Association of Wholesale
Druggists assembled iu Atlanta a few
days ago. The association is composed
of the leading wholesale druggists of
the southern states aud there were

every state in tho south. The southern

Ohio, Kentucky and Illinois branch.
The southern association’s membership

“To the Christian Assocations of

tion of the Young Men’s Christian As¬
sociations of Georgia, it is with hearts
full of gratitude to God for His many
blessings showing upon our work dur¬
ing the past year, and the many evi¬
dences of prosperity which He gives
for the future.
“We invite and urge the Christian
young men of our state to meet with
Us at Athens, March 14th to 17th, and

legal precedents to justify him, but
which is at the request of his consti

to enter into the worry of another

The work will be divided as nearly
as possible so that Mr. Mercer could
do the work for the southern part of
the state and Mr. McConnell for the
northern.
Both of these gentlemen are well
qualified for their positions. Senator

LA GASCOGNE SAFE.
THE LONG MISSING STEAMER
REACHES NEW YORK.
Delay Caused by a Broken Piston.
Joy at Her Safe Arrival.
The French line etearaer La Gas¬
cogne, concerning which bo much
anxiefy has been felt for the past sev¬
eral days is safe.
Tho big steamer, eight days over¬
due, dropped anchor at the bar at
Quarantine, Staten Island, just before
mid-night Monday night, with all well
on board, and a sigh of relief goes up
from two continents. The delay was
due to a broken piston rod, and to the
terriflio gales which have swept the
north Atlantic for the past week or
more, and brought disaster to many a
stanch craft. Captain Battledon and
officers and crew of La Gascogne
brought the ship and passengers
through the gales and made port with¬
out Havre, help. From the time they left
day, they on January 26th, until Mon¬
spoke to no trans-Atlantic
Bteamer, and saw only a four-masted
schooner, the one which reported at
St. Pierre Miquelon, N. S., as having
eeou a large steamer off the banks ap¬
parently in distress some days ago.
The United Press tug, Fred B. Dal
zell, with representatives of a number
of New York papers on board, was the
first tug to reach La Gascogne. The
disabled steamer had left Fire island
’Xiilc.'E ftatctu «tid wa n «i^ t
miles to the castwast of Sandy Hook
lightship.
It was 9 :45 o’clobk p. m. The big
liner was limping into port at half
speed with two big red lights, signals
of distress, at the foremast.
The Story of the Trip.
tug lay alongside half an hour
and the following story of the trip was
obtained:
The Bteamer left Havre January
26th. On the first day out 449 miles
were logged, on the second day 407
miles, on the third, after traveling
380 miles, tbe piston rod broke and
eighteen hours were spent in making
repairs. When they were completed
the ship steamed at nine nfiles an
hour, making in all sixty-six miles on
tho 29th. On the 30th, 31st and Feb¬
ruary 1st 215, 215 and 280 miles a day
were made, respectively.
On February 2d the piston rod broke
down again. The break was more se¬
rious this time. Sea anchors were put
out, and for forty-one hours the ship
was hove to, making repairs. On the
4th the first severe weather was exper¬
ienced and the ship was blown 150
miles out of her course.
On the 5th, the repairs having been
completed, 103 miles were traveled.
The ship was then clear to the north¬
ward of the track of trans-Atlantic
steamers, and was, therefore, not seen
by the many steamers which passed
over the regular track.
Struck by a Cyclone.
On the 7th the machinery broke
down for tbe third time. The heavy
cyclone struck on this day and the
ship hove to with sea anchors out all
day. No headway was made and
owing to the motion of the ship, re¬
pairs were difficdlt. On the next day
the chief engineer, who had been at
his post day and night, completed the
.repairs and the ship proceeded 131
miles.
On the 9th, for the fourth time, the
machinery broke down and only sev¬
enty-four miles were made.
On the 10th 150 miles were made
and on the lltb, to the great rejoicing
of all on board, Fire Island was
sighted and the ship crept up to her
anchorage off the bar.
The United Press tug was received
with a cheer by the anxious passen¬
gers. They crowded to the rail,
yelled and clapped their hands with all
the enthusiasm of the French race.
The officers refused to allow any one
on board and wculd not come to the
rail to talk. The passengers were
more obliging.

T1IE SOUTHERN’S STATEMENT.

There was a conference in Washing¬

to the petition tiled some time ago on
the part of the employes of the road
asking for a restoration of their former
wages and salaries.

After an extended conference, and a
full discussion of tbe proposition to
restore tbe wages tbe men bad received
prior to tbe reduction made by tbe old
companies yvhile in tbe bands of re¬

the sixty days adjournment was freely
allowed. This adjourned meeting was
held Wednesday.
The company makes a full statement

towards a much larger outlay by tbe
company in tbe payment of its men.
Tbe wages of the men on tbe two sys¬

and the old Richmond and Danville,
have been equalized on a basis that
caused tbe company to pay out more
money than heretofore. Tbe average

the company, gave out to the commit¬

GRAVE CHARGES
Preferred Against North Carolina
Officials.
Before the North Carolina legisla¬
tive committee on education grave
charges have been made by R. E. Peel,
an attorney, against State Superin¬
tendent of Public Instruction John C.
Scarborough, and Major S. M. Finger,
ex-state superintendent.
Mr. Peel made general charges of
favoritism of certain school book pub¬
lishers, namely, the University Pub¬
lishing company, of New York, and
insinuates that comnensation was tho
reason of this discrimination.
The charges produced a sensation in
Raleigh,but they are not believed. It is
stated that Peel is making the attack
for Ginn & Co., whose agent, Walker,
of South Carolina, is on the ground.
Major Finger and Superintendent
Scarborough indignantly deny the
charges or, rather, the insinuations.
WASHED INTO THE SEA.
Houses at South Bay, Cape Breton,
Wiped Out of Existence.
Telegraph advices received from
South Bay, Cape Breton, state that
the place has been wiped out of exis¬
tence by the storms of last week. The
property washed into the sea includes
fish houses, wharves, boats, stores and
fishermen’s dwellings. No lives were
lost, but several families living on the
beach were rescued with great diffi¬
culty and saved nothing, but the
clothes they wore.
Green Cove reports that the storm
was the most disastrous ever known on
that coast. Boats and fish houses
were nearly all swept out to sea or
wrecked ou the beach. No mail has
been received since February 2d, and
there is no telling when the roads will
be cleared.

lieved of Fifteen Years of Suf¬
fering from Dyspepsia.
Alavaha, Ga., June 22.—B. B. B. Com¬
pany,, Atlanta, Ga.—Gentlemen: l had
suffered from that terrible dyspepsia, for
over fifteen years, and during that timo
Z-z-d everything 1 could hear of, and s nent
over three hundred dollars in doctor’s hills
without receiving the slightest benefit.
Indeed I continued to grow worse. Final¬
ly, after I despaired of obtaining relief, a
friend recommended B. B. B (Botanic
Blood Balm), and I began using it; not
however expecting to be benefitted. After
being using half a bottle I was satisfied I was
benefitted, and when tho sixth bottle
was taken I felt like a new man, I would
not take a thousand dollars for the good it
lias done me; in fact tho relief I derived
from it is priceless. I firmly believe I
would have died had I not taken it.
Respectfully, etc.,

Stop and think! You’d like
to have a piano in the house, of
course. Every well meaning
man w'ould. The difficulty is
that you borrow trouble. You
think—“$300 ! Oh, I can’t af¬
ford that.” Don’t figure that
month,30 way. Say to yourself; “£10 a
that easilv”—and cents a day. CAN I can do
you do it
easily. Come and select your
piano—30 cents a day makes it
yours, and you have the use of it
from the first payment. Good
music half an hour a day is worth
more than that!
