B A number of important matters regard-

B lions have grown out of the late action of

B pany the differential in passenger rates
I bttween Atlanta and some other interior
I points and Eastern cities. The officials
1 sm they expected the points to come up
that will be discussed at the meeting, and
I Ihty are prepared to deal with them.
I "ne of the questions Is the matter* of
I making the differential effective both
I ways. For the past three or four weeks
I h ras been effective from the Southern
jo th" Eastern points. It is now desired
i the lines to have it go into effect for
h return. Mr. Haile says the under
standing when the differential was grant
ed s i■' tliat It was to be effective both
" a*; tliat there is no reason why it
should not prevail South as woll as North
hound, it seems likely that the commit
" will agree to the differential being
used returning.
Do differential rate now in effect be
tween Atlanta and Eastern points, via
xotfolk, the route of the Seaboard, is
, ' ~ J ' By adopting this rate the Seaboard
, the other lines interested got pretty
ciost- to the limit of $3 that had been ac
" led to by the association. The Ocean
e, unship Company was authorized to put
the same differential via Savannah
, om Atlanta, to New York, but did not
vs ° eep * y * nto the former rate as the
er route. The steamship company is
" 'bulging $22 for first-class passage
“ -ween Atlanta and New York. The rate
i ° r . e,h f differential was adopted was
° ll .id. To have put on a lower rate
ouui have given the scalpers too good a
cnance to reap a harvest.

THE DIAL OF DEATH.
It Shows the Record ot Fatality of
Three Dread Diseases.
A TIMELY WARNING FOR MANY.
In an article in a September issue of the
Illustrated American, Prof. Fletcher W.
Hewes publishes a dial, illustrating the
ratio of deaths in the United States from
the most prevalent diseases. This is a
reproduction of I’rof. Hewes' dial.
In his article Prof. Hewes says: “This
p § § x>m
® AA © O © © XmMp.
mm © © //vfei.
m
0 6W/ct iioudmnyuo)-661 701 !|j
dial should serve as a guide to emphasize
the of specially guarding against ex
posures to at least three classes of dis
eases. Few persons realize how very
large are the proportion of deaths from
these three classes of disorders. Figures
alone do not tell the story. The wide
spaces on the dial between the lower and
upper indicators should make one realize
the fatality of those diseases as never be
fore, and be more careful.”
It w r ill be noted on the dial that where
diphtheria and typhoid fever each kill but
27,000 people, consumption alone kills 102,-
000 people. Next to consumption in the
dread race of death stands pneumonia,
with a record of 76,000. Right at its beets
is the record of 74,000 for diarrheal dis
eases.
There is more than one lesson to he
learned from these figures and from this
dial. And there are other facts to be tak
en into consideration with them. For in
stance, the city of Buffalo, N. Y., is said
to have the smallest death rate of any city
in the world—but twelve in every one
thousand. In other large cities the death
rate runs from twenty to thirty-five in
each thousand.
It is significant in this connection that
Buffalo, N. Yk, Is the headquarters of The
World's Dispensary Medical Association,
dispensers of the famous family medicines
of Dr. ft. V. Pierce. These family medi
cines are the' product of the life-work of
Dr. Pierce, who is probably the most
tvidely known physician in America. Dr.
Pierce has been in active practice in Buffa
lo for over thirty years. He Is chief con
sulting physician to the Invalids’ Hotel
and Surgical Institute, probably the liest
known medical Institution in the United
States.
Among the family fnedicines that owe
their origin to Ur. Pierce, one that has
attained world-Wide fbme is known as Dr.
Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery'- It is a
preventive and cure for the three classes
of diseases that are shown by Prof.
Hewes’ dial to cause the .death of more
human beings annually than the other se
rious ailments together. It is an
unfailing cure for weak lungs, spitting of
blood, obstinate, lingering coughs, bron
chitis, throat disease and kindred affec
tions which if neglected or badly treated,
lead ttp to consumption. It purifies the
blood and driyes out disease germs. It
keeps the lungs renewed by constantly sup
plying them with rich, red, arterial blood
of the best quality. It clears the lungs
and enables the blood to receive its nor
mal amount of life-giving oxygen. It stead
ies and strengthens the nerves. It builds
up the whole body and makes solid; firm,
healthy' flesh. It does not build the flabby,
unhealthy flesh of corpulency and it does
not raise the weight above the normal
figure.
If every person who suffers from bron
chial or throat troubles or is threatened
with consumption would resort to this
remedy, the number of deaths credited to
consumption on Prof. Hewes’ dial would
be enormously reduced. ,
This great remedy, by Us action through
the blood upon the lungs, is also the best
preventive and protection against pneu
monia. It will not cure pneumonia after
it has gained a foothold, for the simple
reason that it is an acute disease, and cr.ce
started, must run Its course. But if peo
ple who have weak lungs, narrow chests
and a hereditary tendency to lung trou
bles would build themselves up by taking
Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery, the
chances of an attack of pneumonia would
be reduced to a minimum. The “Golden
Medical Discovery” builds up and
strengthens not only the lungs but the
whole body, and gives to the weak consti
tution greatly added powers of resistance.
Nearly ail diarrheal diseases are clue to
neglected disorders of the digestion. When
the stomach is right and performs Its prop
er functions, and the large intestines are
right and perform their proper functions,
there Is little danger of diarrheal disease.
The first work of Dr. Pierce’s Golden Med
ical Discovery ia to correct oil disorders
of the digestion. It gives zest and snap
to the appetite. It makes grown people
ns hungry as when they were boys and
girls. It facilitates the flow of digescive
juices. It assists the blood to take up the
proper elements of the food that go to
build new and healthy tissues throughout
the body. In a word, it sees to it tliat
the whole process of digestion is properly
performed, and under these circumstances,
there is little if any danger of an ataek
from any diarrheal disease.
Thus the people of this country have at
their command a simple, harmless, but
effective remedy that may be procured
from any high class medicine dealer, that
is a thoroughly reliable protection against
the three classes of diseases that cause
the largest proportion of the annual death
rate. The fact that the city of Buffalo,
N. Y., where this marvelous medicine is
made and sold has a death rate of but
twelve in a thousand, whereas other large
cities average from twenty to thirty-live
in a thousand, la most significant.
The merits of Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medi
cal Discovery are not based upon mere as
sertions. Thousands all over the country
who were in imminent danger of death
from the dred diseases that take prece
dence in Prof, Hewes' dial, have testified
to their speedy and permanent recovery
under the use of this great medicine.
These testimonials are open to Investiga
tion by any person who wishes to sef
them.
The work of this masterful “Discovery”
begins at the very corner-stone of life In
the stomach and nutritive organism. It
gives appetite, nourishment, rich blood,
healthy solid flesh. A cough Is only a
symptom; there are other things that make
the cough; they must be got rkl of first,
THE MORNING NEWS: WEDNESDAY, MARCH 2, 1808.
the cough may be the last thing to go
away. Dr. Pierce's marvelous "Discovery”
isn't a lung specific; but it does more than
any such specific can ever do. it sweeps
out of the blood all the foul disease
germs that lodge in the lungs and origi
nate consumption; it heals and builds up
the delicate tissues and Imbues the entire
system with strength and active energy.
When Dr.' Pierce says a case is cura
ble. he says it in the knowledge that those
words have been New Life to a host, doom
ed by fear and friends and igubrance ind
physicians lo a consumptive's grave.
Does Dr. Pierce claim to cure consump
tion?
That question Isn’t worth arguing. Look
at the record. Take a case In point. Here
is a man with'a hacking cough, a hectic
flush, night-sweets, great emaciation or
wasting of flesh, spitting of blood, short-
ness of breath and ail the other symptoms.
After every remedy and every local phy
sician has failed, he, as a last resort, takes
“Golden Medical Discovery” and the cough
vanishes, the cheek gets back its natural
color, sleep becomes sound and refreshing,
the spitting of blood stops, flesh and mus
cles become firm, weight increase, and
life goes along in quiet and comfort to ’he
full limit of the three score years and ten.
But may be it wasn’t consumption aft
er all? May be it wasn't. You know it was
something that was attacking the very <it
adel of life, and it was something that was
cured by the use of Dr. Pierce’s Golden
Medical Discovery. And Dr. Pierce is cur
ing such “somethings” right along with a
record of over a quarter of a million cases,
and not more than three per cent. of
failures.
It is hard to draw the line where con
sumption begins, but the important thing
(o remember is that all these wasting, de
bilitating diseases caused by mal-nutrl
tion ulmost invariably lead on to consump
tion, and this class of obscure and obsti
nate diseases are what this great "Discov
ery” cures.
One fact, at least, is well established.
That the “Golden Medical Discovery”
does cure weak lungs, bleeding from lungs,
obstinate, lingering coughs, laryngitis,
bronchitis, thoat disease, and kindred af
fections of the air passages, which, if neg
lected or badly treated, lead up to con
sumption, can no longer be doubted in
view of the many thousands of well estab
lished cures of such cases reported by the
most trustworthy citizens. Many of these
eases have been pronounced consumption
—and incurable—by the best local physi
cians before the sufferers commenced the
use of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery.
# Whether the doctors have erred in their
judgment in these numerous cases or not
is<not for us to decide.
Kiipixjso we put some of these so-called
"incurables” in the witness box. last vs
call Mr. Harrison Smith, of Gapcreek,
AY,iyne county, Ky., whose cure is a con
spicuous object lesson to all sufferers from
lung troubles. ' “In the spring of i890,”
writes Mr. Smith, “I took a severe cold
which settled on my Jungs and chest, and
I suffered intensely. I tried several of our
best physicians here,,and they gave up all
hope of my recovery; they said that I had
consumption and could live but a few days
or weeks. Mr. James Lorton, a neighbor,
came to me and told me to write to Dr.
Pierce—that ho could cure me. I did so,
and he wrote me what kind of medicine to
to get. 1 took five bottles of Dr. Pierce’s
Golden Medical Discovery and now I am
spund and well. I feel better than I have
in ten years. I gladly recommend the ’Gold
en Medical Discovery’ for I know it saved
my life.”
Still another witness writes; "I had a
had cough and got so low with it that I
could not sit up.” Thus writes Mrs. Mit
tie Gray, of New London, Union county.
Ark. She continues, “Our family physi
cian told my husband that I had consump
tion, I had pains through my chest and
spit up blood. I took your ’Golden Medi
cal Discovery’ and it cured me. It saved
my' life. I don't think anyone would die
of consumption who would take Dr.
Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery.”
Mr. C. J. McNaney. of Stillwater, Wash
ington county, Minn., writes: “In the
spring of 1884, I was taken ill with con
sumption, and after trying everything I
could hear of and doctoring all summer,
my physician said I had consumption, and
that my left lung was nearly gone and
that I could live but a short time. About
twelve bottles of Dr. Pierce's Golden Med
ical Discovery brought me out all right,
and I cured myself of two more atacks of
the same trouble. I am satisfied that (lie
‘Golden Medical Discovery’ will cure con
sumption If taken in time. I consider it
the best medicine in the world for the
diseases for which it Is recommended.”
“Last summer I was taken with diar
rhea of the very worst kind," writes Mrs.
Kate H. Summerson, of Emporium, Cam
eron county, Pa. “I doctored a" great
deal, and for a time was better, but the
trouble soon came on again worse than
ever, and it went so long it became chron
ic.' I doctored again and got worse all
the time. I had no appetite, and was so
run-down I felt badly all over.
“A lady friend told me to try Dr. Pierce’s
medicines. I took four bottles of ‘Golden
Medical Discovery’ and three vials of
•Pleasant Pellets. * Am entirely cured. I
never felt better, and I owe it all to Dr.
Pierce's medicines.”
All high class medicine dealers sell Dr.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery.

AT THE THEATER.
Dr. Lloyd Cook's Remarkable Spirit
ualistic Performance.
Dr. Loyd Cook gave last night what was
probably the cleverest performance of its
kind, considering the conditions under
which it was given, that was ever seen in
the theater. It was alleged spiritulistic
manifestations of a very interesting char
acter. Ail of the manifestations were
given with the theater fully lighted and a
committee of undoubted judgment and ve
racity occupying the stage. The commit
tee made minute examination into the par
aphernalia used by the medium.
Dr. Cook gave an interesting talk in
which ho spoke of the methods employed
by other mediums and spiritulistic and ex
posed some of their workings. His first
demonstration was what is known us the
slate trick usually performed by magi
cians. Two small slates were apparently
washed clean; a piece of chalk was placed
between them and they were then tied to
gether. Dr. Cook took them among the
audience and placing them at tile ear ol
a gentleman Asked if he could not hear
sounds of writing, which the gentleman
said he did. Dr. Cook untied the slates
and a quotation from Shakespeare was
written on one of them.
The committee which occupied the stage
while Dr. Cook gave his spirit manifesta
tions was composed of Mr. H. -M. Comer,
Dr. William Duncan. Judge A. H. Mac-
Donell and Mr. T. 'M. Cunningham, Jr.
Dr. Cook performed till of the cabinet
manifestations that mediums usually do,
but they were done in such a clevi r man
ner and so apparently free from trickery,
that they were unusually interesting.
Th© best of them was where he was
securely tied In a chair placed in the
cabinet. Dr. Dune,an was seated in an
other chair with his back to the medium,
and the curtain was drawn, while the
other members of the committee stood at
the back and sides of the cabinet on
watch.
Dr. Cook asked Dr. Duncan if he could
not feel hands upon him. Dr. Duncan re
plied that he did. The curtain was drawn
aside and Dr. Duncan was seen In his
shirt sleeves, and his coat was on 1 'r.
Cook, who was still securely tied. Dr.
Duncan acknowledged that he did not
feel his coal being removed. Mr. Comer
and Judge MacDoneil also experienced
the sensation of occupying the cabinet
with the medium.
Dr. Cook then gave an exhibition of ta
ble-tapping with the assistance of Jhe
committee. A common table weighing
forty-two pounds, was sat upon by two
of the committee, Messrs. MacDoneil und
Cunningham, while Dr. Cook had it sus
pended in the air.
The balance of the entertainment was of
a like character, and was thoroughly in
teresting and entertaining.
Friday matinee Louis James will be
seen as "Brutus”,in "Julius Caesar,” and
at night in his new play, “A Cavalier of
France.” The latter play was brought out
last September and its success is said to
have been so great that it now holds first
place In tyr. James’ extensive repertoire.
It Is described as a pictorial romantic
drama of the sixteenth century. The
scenes are laid in the court of Henry 111,
and portray with striking veracity the in
trigues and conspiracies that marked the
reign of the Medlcis in France. Mr.
James’ character being that of a daring
cavalier, noted for his handsome bearing,
deeds of valor, swordsmanship, and, above
all, ills fealty to the King. Among the im
portant persons introduced are Catharine
de Medici, Marguerite do A'alols, Baron
Rosny, Due D'Anjou and Chicot, the fa
mous jester and companion of Henry. , .
Tlie reserve seat plan for the concert
to-morrow night by the Boston Ideal Ban
jo,/Mandolin and Guitar Club, at the
Guard’s hall, will be open at the Young
Men's Christian Association building this
morning at 8:30 o'clock. Much interest
has been manifested in the visit of this
famous club. Several people In Savannah
have heard it piny in the North, and
rpeak in the most glowing terms of the
concerts. Night before last the club
played at Columbia, S. C., and the audi
ence which was a very large one, was
delighted. And the club is spoken of for
a return date. It has been some years
since Savannah has been visited by such
an organization, and the fact that the
club ranks first among such entertain
ments, will without doubt draw a very
large audience. This will he the elosing
attraction of the Y. M. C. A’s. star
course. The Cleveland Leader and Herald
said of the Boston Ideals:
“The Boston Ideal Banjo, Mandolin and
Guitar Club, which gave two concerts, did
some mostt excellent playing, and showed
a high class of proficiency in the handling
of those popular instruments. The quartet
singing was of a humorous nature, and
came in for a good share of encores.”
A VETER AX OF THREE AVARS.
A Gun That Looks as If It Alight
Have Hern la a Dozen Wars.
Mr. R. M. Hicks has on exhibition in his
restaurant window a very peculiar and an
cient looking gun. The stock and wood
work are oriental in pattern and design
and inlaid over the whole surface in a very
handsome manner. The barrel is rifled
and of a large caliber. The look is the
ordinary percussion, but the owner of.the
rifle, who loaned it to Mr. Hicks, said that
it was formerly a flintlock and that it had
seen service in three wars. He carried it
himself in the last war. he said, his grand
father carried it in the war of 3812, and his
great-grandfather in the war of 1776. A card
plaeed beside the gun is inscribed; "I was
in the war of the revolution in 1776, I was
in the war of 3812, I was In the war of
1861-65, and I am ready to go to war again.”
The ol<l weapon looks ug if It might still
do good service In proper hands. An old
load was extracted from it by Capt. J. P.
White, the gunsmith, before it was put on
exhibition. Capt. White was in doubt as
to the age of the gun. Its style of work
manship was Algerian or Arabian, he said,

contest is looked for, and as both teams
are in excellent condition those who wit
ness to-night's game will be treated to a
line exhibition of ball playing.

—Marshall Tldd, the famous gun builder
of Woburn, Mass., made his first firearm
out of a spike sixty-three years ago. On*
day when the Boston and i/owell Railroad
ran lfs first train through Woburn the
boy picked up a spike, and the Idea oc
curred to him that It could be fashioned
Into a pistol barrel. A blacksmith cut
off the ends of the spike and Marshall
4iicn bored it on his brother's lathe.
