: In the prepatation of Whisky, the infusion of rye or other grain is first B
B made to undergo fermentation, by which the saccharine matterand indirectly B
x the starch are converted into Alcohol. In this state the liquid is called the wash. x
X This is submitted to distillation, and the product ts denominated low wines. By B
Z a second distillation it becomes purer and stronger, and now takes the name of E
raw spirits or whisky. It is now submitted to a third distills- B
tion in order to still further purify it. This is where our E
Whisky is superior. Few whiskies are ever submitted to B
the third distillation. By time certain chemical changes B
take place by which the natural impurities contained in the B
liquor are destroyed and the whisky becomes mellow, los- 3
ing the disagreeable odor and taste which it is apt to have B
when first distilled. We guarantee Gum Springs Whisky E
to be six years old. A letter from State Chemist: :

in the whisky are in evidence that it is a genuine whisky z
which is ®f sufficient age to have converted the fusel oil into B

HALED TO JAIL,
And Will Not Need Any More Over
coats For Awhile.
A negro of the name of Jim Jones was
arrested last Thursday afternoon on the
charge of larceny. He is charged with
having stolen an overcoat from John E.
Craig and having robbed G. D. Lay’s
house, carrying away a large amount of
wearing apparel, a report of which oc
curred in last week’s Eagle, together
with several other thefts of a similar
character, all of which were exceedingly
bold.
Since the arrest of this negro several
other robberies have been brought to
light, but all parties had heretofore
thought it a good idea to keep the mat
ter quiet, aud doubtless the thief thought
so too, and as a result the work of rob
bing houses has been going on in our
city for the past six months.
Mr. Lay took a different view of the
matter. He made the robbery known to
the press, notified the chiefs of police of
other cities, and the country people
around about the city. As a result when
the negro put the stolen goods on the
market in the vicinity of Bowdre, six
miles east of the city, Bud Marchbanks
hastened to town to notify Mr. Lay that
two negroes were selling articles of
clothing around Bowdre, and gave a de
scription of the persons.
A conference was held with the officers
and Jim Jones was arrested Thursday
afternoon and carried before the people
to whom he and his partner had sold the
stolen goods. Each purchaser identified
Jones as one of the men.
He declined to give any information to
the authorities, saying that they might
kill him or send him to the chaingang,
but he would tell nothing. He also
waived preliminary trial, and was haled
to the county lock-up.
He sold Mrs. Lay’s cloak for 50 cents
and Mr. Craig’s overcoat for sl, and oth
er articles at the same rate.
This negro is said to be an ex-convict.
He came to Gainesville about six months
ago and rented a house in Dr. Green’s
pasture, near Grove street. Since he has
been here he has pawned valuable arti
cles for almost nothing and was never
known to redeem one. He has also ped
dled, selling goods at any price he could
get. It is believed that this thief be
longs to an organized band of outlaws
who operate in different towns and cities.
This idea has grown out of the class of
goods he has offered here for sale at any
price one would offer.
Mr. Craig’s overcoat and a larger por
tion of the goods stolen from Mrs. Lay
have been recovered.

writes: “For twenty-seven years I had been
a constant sufferer from nervous prostra

tors and advertised remedies without bene
fit. Three years ago my condition was
alarming; the least noise would startle and
unnerve me. I was unable to sleep, had a
number of sinking spells and slowly grew
worse. I began using Dr. Miles’ Restorative
Nervine and Nerve and Liver Pills. At first
the medicine seemed to have no effect, but
after taking a few bottles I began to notice
a change; I rested better at night, my appe

better, until now I am as nearly restored
to health as one of my age may expect. God

CONGRESS ISOPENEDi
M'KINIETSMESSAGE
National Legislature Begins
Its Regular Session.
PRESIDENT ON NEW ISSUES
Currency Reform Is Urged and the
Authority Asked to Increase the
Standing Army to 100,000 Men, but
No Colonial Plan Suggested.
Washington, Dec. A—Congress met
it noon today and President McKinley
transmitted his annual message to both
branches. The document is a lengthy
one, beginning with the statement that,
“despite the added burdens of the war,
our people rejoice in a very satisfactory
and steadily increasing degree of pros
perity, as evidenced by the greatest vol
ume of business ever recorded.”
The president says “military service
under a common flag for a righteous
cause has strengthened the national
spirit and served to cement more closely
than ever the fraternal bonds between
every section of the country.”
He then reviews elaborately the
events that led up to a declaration of
war with Spain, pointing out and prais
ing acts of heroism by Americans dur
ing the conflict anti concluding this
portion of the message with an expres
sion of a hope soon to be able to lay be
i >r • the senate for ratification a definite
treaty of peace.
Our New Possessions.
No legislation is recommended for the
government of Porto Rico and the Phil
ippines, the president advising that ac
tion along this line be deferred until the
peace eommissionrs have concluded their
work at Paris. With reference to Cuba
the message contains the following:
“As soon as we are in possession of
Cuba and have pacified the island, it
will be necessary to give aid and decis
ion to its people to form a government
of themselves. It is important that our
relations with these .people'shall be of a
most friendly character and our com
mercial relations close and reciprocal.
Spanish rule must be replaced by a just,
benevolent and humane government,
created by the people of Cuba, capable
of performing all international obliga
tions and which shall encourage thrift,
industry and prosperity, and promote
peace and good will among all the in
habitants, whatever may have been their
relations in the past. Neither revenge
nor passion should have a place in the
new government. Until there is com
plete tranquility in the island and a
stable government inaugurated military
occupation will be continued.”
The necessity of definite action on
the Nicaragua canal project is urged,
and while no proposition looking to gov
ernmental construction is made, the
tone of the message in reference to that
matter seems favorable to such a course.
Hawaii receives considerable space in
the message and the work of the board
appointed to formulate laws for Ameri
ca's new possessions in the Pacific is re
viewed.
Far Eastern Affairs.
The seizure of several Chinese. porta
by European powetg is noted and refer
ence made Uff tfie feet that-UmtadStatea
andwarships dispatchecTto Oriental wa
ters to look after our'interests.
Sympathy Is expressed with the czar’s
disarmament scheme, but the question
is declared to have no practical impor
tance to ns “save as marking an auspi
cious step toward the betterment of -the
condition of the modern peoples and the
cnlHvarinn of peace and good will
among them.”
Touching on monetary affairs, the
president favors maintaining the present
gold standard and renews the recom
mendation he made last year “that
when United States notes are presented
for redemption in gold and are re
deemed in gold such notes should be set
apart and only paid out in exchange for
gold.”
The whole financial subject, in all its
parts, “is commended to the wise con
sideration of congress.”
Authority is asked to increase the
standing army to 100,000 men and the
further privilege is requested of recruit
ing frorp the inhabitants of the newly
acquired islands.

NUMBER 49.
A $5,000,000 COMPANY.
And It is to Do a Big Business in
Mining at Dahlonega.
A company composed of Ohio capital
ists has bought up nearly everything in
sight in the way of gold mines and mills
around Dahlonega.
The properties in question represent
4,671 acres of mineral lands in the imme
diate vicinity of Dahlonega, the bulk of
which is gold bearing, but with a 500-
acre tract of valuable maganese deposits.
The deed of transfer covers, in addition
to the lauded interest, all the improve
ments thereon, consisting of numerous
mining outfits, elevators, stamp mills,
105 dies, stamps, buildings, 500 horse
cars, forty miles of artificial canals, rail
way track and rolling stock and all the
appliances and machinery natural to an
extensive mining interest.
The company was organized about the
Ist of November, most of the stock hav
ing been subscribed in advance. The
capitalization is $5,000,000 and the home
office is at Toledo, with branch offices at
Delaware, 0., Chattanooga, Tenn., and I
Dahlonga, Ga. The charter is under the i
laws of Georgia. Ohio capital is very ;
largely backing the venture, the officers
of the company being as follows:
President, J. W. Adams, of Delaware,
0., vice president, G. B. Paul, of Dela
ware, 0., secretary and treasurer, R. C.
Thompson, of Delaware, O , general
manager, 11. D. Ingersoll, of Dahlonega,
Ga. The company is to be known as tike
Consolidated Gold Mining Company.
As the purchase money is not stated as
to the amount, some idea of its extent
may be secured from the fact that there
wa* $5,000 in revenue stamps necessary
upon the instrument. This is the larg
est amount of revenue stamps ever pur
chased for a similar purpose in the State,
and perhaps one of the largest amounts
ever required for a similar purpose in the
country.
How to Look Good.
Good looks aie really more than skin
deep, depending entirely on a healthy
condition of all the vital organs. If the
liver is inactive, you have a bilious look;
if your stomach is disordered you have a
dyspeptic look; if your kidneys are
affected, you have a pinched look. Se
cure good health, and you will surely
have good looks. “Electric Bitters” is a
good Alterative and Tonic. Acts di
rectly on the stomach, liver and kidneys,
purifies the blood, cures pimples,
blotches and boils, and gives a
good complexion. Every bottle guaran
teed. Sold at M. C. Brown & Co’s drug
store. 50 cents per bottle.
That Electric Line.
The question of building an electric
railroad from the mines near Dahlonega
to some point on the Southern Railway
system has been revived. Among those
reported aa interesfed are J. W. Adams,
